Chapter 656: Return
rge-scale spell quickly converged.The golden peak, scorchingly hot just moments ago, suddenly dropped in temperature.In the blink of an eye, a humanoid form made entirely of flames appeared before her...Before a stronghold, the battle was raging. Lu Ye staggered and instinctively swung his blade.
Although he would rest for a period of time after each major battle, consuming pills to replenish his consumed spiritual power, the loss of his soul power was not so easy to replenish. This resulted in his body currently being in a near-transparent state.
His powerful will sustained him, allowing him to shine like a flickering candle in the wind even within this dilapidated city, blossoming with his last vestiges of brilliance.

This is the real meaning of being at the end of one's rope.
Throughout his cultivation journey, Lü Ye has faced numerous crises. Many of them were challenges he could barely overcome with his own abilities. However, being pushed to such a desperate situation step by step, this was something he had never experienced before.
Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!

Behind the butcher, he also saw a line of figures.
The deceased Liu Daitong, Yu Qing, and those other faces that weren't too familiar...
Although I sensed this was just an illusion, I couldn't help but feel guilty. Lu Ye stammered, "Senior... the mission..."
The task ultimately remained unfinished, but he could no longer hold on. This time, as he fell asleep, he wasn't even sure if he would wake up again.
The butcher patted him on the shoulder: "Good job!" he said. "The mission is complete!"
On their way, they had already wiped out all the insect races within their designated area. All that remained were the insects on this battlefield where Lu Ye stood.
Although it felt like the butcher was comforting himself, Lu Ye still managed a weak smile: “That's good...”

Its nearly transparent body twisted slightly for a moment.
I'll send him to the City Lord's Mansion. You guys split into three teams and search everywhere. See if there are any stragglers left.
Yes.
Liu Daitong and others readily agreed.
The butcher grabbed Lu Ye, and after giving an order, shot into the air. At a height of ten zhang, he soared towards the city lord's mansion, disappearing quickly without a trace.
What is this ...
Lu Ye couldn't help but be surprised. The mist around him was clearly soul mist.
The last time he came to Xian Yuan City, he had experienced such an environment. That time, both him, the giant armor, and Amber benefited a lot.
This thing called "soul mist" only exists within the soul washing pool.
In other words, is he currently in the soul washing pool
He was clearly unconscious outside a stronghold in the city. How did he end up at the Soul Cleansing Pool for no reason
In a moment of bewilderment, the image of the butcher's face and Liu Daitong's figure against the clear sky suddenly flashed in his mind...
In the last moment before he fell into a coma, he seemed to see these Xian Yuan Guards who should have died.
But that can only be an illusion, how could the dead come back to life
If that's the case, then it should be that other Immortal Guards discovered my whereabouts and brought me back to the City Lord's Mansion, placing me in the Soul Washing Pool
Although the possibility is small, this is the only explanation.
Before this, he had learned from the butcher that there were quite a few Immortal Guards operating in Xian Yuan City. They were just one of many branches, and each branch was responsible for clearing out insect races in a designated area.
Perhaps another Immortal Guard squad completed their mission and was discovered while investigating the area.
Though he didn't know who brought him here, it was undoubtedly a life-saving favor. Lu Ye silently recorded this kindness.
The depletion of soul power has been perfectly replenished, and not only that, it is much stronger than before. It can be said that Lu Ye's current state is better than ever.
The saying "one's foremost concern is food and shelter" also applies to Lu Ye.
He wasn't thinking about anything at this moment, but rather the thick miasma of souls surrounding him...
The last time he came, he took away several bottles of soul-washing water. This time, although he didn't know who had placed him in the soul-washing pool, such an opportunity was rare and he couldn't miss it.t>"Welcome, esteemed guest. Please, don't stand on ceremony, come inside and let us chat. Junior Brother Lu, please show our guest to a seat!" Chou Wu quickly regained his composure and gestured with...
