Weapon Seller In The World Of Magic

"haha hahaha... Do you think you are the only one who can do astral projection, Yuanlong?" Leviathan bursts into laughter as he retracts his claws. The large body beneath the sea of lava disappeared and transformed into energy, flowing back to a humanoid-looking Leviathan.

"No..." Chang'e shouted in despair and charged forward with the sword.

Leviathan's other arm was stretched toward her. Yuanlong appeared in between and punched it away.

Meanwhile, Mark's lifeless body reached Leviathan and he grabbed his delicate-looking face, "Poor Houyi... thought he could defeat me with his weird tricks but only get himself by me once again... hahaha... well, satisfying."

"Wha... What do you mean?" Chang'e asked with her gaze on Mark, her voice shaking as her senses no longer being able to sense life in the mortal.

"I never had your husband's soul, Chang'e," Leviathan looked very happy, watching Chang'e fall into despair and Yuanlong frowning too deeply. He rejoiced in their sadness, speaking, "I attempted to imprison his body and soul, but his bow got in the way and let its master's soul escape, replacing him as the prisoner."

Following up his words, he summoned a dazzling bow, burning in eternal flames, Leviathan continued, "I must say it really loves its master. Look at how it was enraged that its master died again. hahaha..." He tightly grabbed the bow as its flames glowed even brighter. "I bet Yuanlong must have also realized it. Is this why he is so interested in taking that mortal away? I wonder..."

Chang'e turned her head in a stiffened manner to look at the divine serpent, the latter responded seriously, "I had suspicions of it from the moment he stepped in my abode. He reeked of Houyi's aura and even Yan Di's aura. That is why I ordered you to test him so that I could confirm that he is the reincarnation of Shengong (The Divine Bow of Houyi, which was also once held by Yan Di).

Unfortunately, I couldn't confirm it before as he never displayed his truest abilities.

But, earlier, after sensing the presence of Shengong inside Leviathan, I realized that he was not Shengong. The only way this could make sense is that he is Houyi's as well as Yan Di's reincarnation. More precisely, their souls were merged for some reason."

"Merged souls?" Chang'e looked at Yuanlong in wonder.

The divine serpent nodded, "Since the dawn of creation, many souls have been merged and many souls have been split into several parts. It is not an uncommon situation." After a brief pause, she added, "Good thing is that his soul is still inside the body. We can resurrect him if we take him to the Altar of Life."

Yuanlong's words returned hope to Chang'e's face. She couldn't help but gaze at Mark's lifeless body once again in worry.

"Hello... did you forget my existence or something? You have been talking with each other for so long," Leviathan cleaned his ear with his little finger. After gaining their attention, he swung his arm away, "Good luck with saving his corpse then."

Mark's corpse flew down to the Sea of Lava at hypersonic speeds.

"No..." Chang'e's panic returned once again.

Yuanlong placed her hand on top of Chang'e. Divine energy flew into the body, recovering her reserves in an instant, "Go and get his body, Chang'e. If his corpse melted completely, there is no way to resurrect him again."

All of her divine energy running through the body went back to its essence. She put her palms together. "No one can stop me from saving him."

She was about to follow her words, but it was then, Bael hurriedly spoke, "No, wait. If you burn your essence, I won't be able to acquire it. How about I change the terms of our earlier contract? I let you go and save Lu Zhen and you will give me the divine essence soul as promised? Think about it. Even if you cause a sacrifice, you might be able to destroy the domain but you won't be able to kill me.

Not to mention, I could still..."

"I agree." Chang'e didn't even let him finish his words, agreeing with the proposal. Bael closed his eyes and stretched her palm toward her. Visible blood-colored chains appeared on both of their heads. Demonic aura seeped into them and they disappeared.

In the next moment, he snapped his fingers and the Domain disappeared. Chang'e dives into the sea of lava without wasting any time.

Meanwhile, at the bed of the sea of lava, Mark was seen lying motionless. However, inside his mindscape, Mark's spirit was seen walking in the direction screeching of a beast was heard by.

He reached the destination in the end, stopping at an altar-like thing with a bird in flames being imprisoned by chains made of ice.

As he raised his head and looked at the bird, the latter looked back at him and screeched again.

Mark's soul neither questioned it nor backed away. He simply flew higher in a daze, as if he was still in sleep.

Gazing straight into the eyes of the beast without an ounce of emotion, Mark's spirit raised its hand and touched its beak.

The ice chains slowly melted down.

The beast, free from its chains, let out a powerful screech one-time last time and transformed into scarlet energy, merging with Mark's spirit.

A few seconds later, Mark opened his eyes abruptly.
