Chapter 366.

His choice Inshi.

Bayou was taken aback, never anticipating that it would indeed be Inshi.

In her memories, her father was a remarkably powerful figure among the human race.

Though their time together was fleeting.

However, while you could hardly fathom that Ini's father was the foremost lord of that time, yet despite Ini's tribulations and the pursuit she faced, Guaming had not intervened to offer aid.

Moreover, the information subtly revealed in his earlier words indicated that he too was a monarch level powerhouse.

Guaming seemed to discern by you's confusion and began to elucidate.

The reason I agreed to assist him in sealing the source of fear, confining myself to the dark forest, is that I owe my ascent from the ordinary level to the monarch level entirely to his aid.

His kindness is immeasurable, and this is the only way I can repay him.

Since the seal was placed, I have been unable to leave the dark forest, and my ability to assist his daughter has become constrained.

As the seal gradually weakens, I find myself unable to even move.

But why not release the seal after his death? Why persist? Bayou questioned, struggling to comprehend, perceiving Guam Ming<unk>s determination as somewhat obstinate, as if he would continue to seal the source of fear solely to find her.

It is not so simple.

The source of fear, having fused over the years, has developed a semblance of sensience.

It is akin to his shadow, and anything associated with him would restore the source's power.

Furthermore, his weapon currently resides with his daughter.

Should the seal be released, the first target of the source of fear would be her.

Additionally, the reason he bequeathed his weapon to his daughter was to serve as a contingency against the source of fear.

Once in, she ascends to the royal level.

A fragment of his memories will awaken, guiding her to the dark forest where she can utilize his weapon to receal the source of fear, thereby becoming a formidable ally.

However, the risks are substantial.

If she cannot master it, she risks being consumed by it, presenting both an opportunity and a peril for her.

Guaming<unk>s explanation resonated with Bayou.

The essence was clear.

Guaming would temporarily maintain the seal until Inshi reached the royal level, at which point the seal would transfer to her weapon, transforming into either an advantage or a danger for her.

As a father, this was undoubtedly a reluctant choice.

Given the conditions, he would not wish for Inshi to confront the source of fear, as the consequences of failure would be dire.

At that moment, her appearance seemed fortuitous.

So, you sought me out? Indeed, he affirmed.

Even he had acknowledged the formidable nature of the weapon belonging to the lord of the undead.

And you, not only being the heir to the lord of the undead, but also a lord yourself, are uniquely suited to this task, especially with the aid of the system.

Guaming patiently elucidated, recognizing that if you were to enlist her help, it was imperative to clarify the stakes involved.

I see now, Bayou began to ponder.

If the system could not neutralize such a calamity, would it not become a ticking time bomb in the future? Suddenly, Bayu paused, drawing a peculiar connection.

In she appeared to be merely in her teens, implying that her father had likely passed away only a decade prior.

The dark forest has indeed existed for quite some time, and the timeline simply does not align.

Was the dark forest formed as a result of the sealing of the source of fear? Guam Ming was taken aback by by Yu's sharp intellect as he was well aware of the question she was about to pose.

Yes, he had perished over three centuries ago and I too have been sealed here for more than 300 years.

The original forest had succumbed to the corruption of the source of fear transforming into its current state.

After her birth, Silver Tide was infused by her parents with primal energy as a legacy enabling her to cultivate freely and ensuring her safety.

Subsequently, she fell into a deep slumber, awakening only in recent years.

Therefore, Silver Tide is effectively over 300 years old.

Aa marveled, realizing that Silver Tide had been in slumber for such an extended period.

By now, it was likely that all of the Tiger Queen's confidants had perished, which explained why she was pursued by her kin upon her emergence.

Indeed, one could articulate it that way.

However, her psychological age remains merely that of a teenager.

Guaming, rarely engaging in casual conversation, seemed invigorated by his exchange with Bayou, which rekindled memories of the present world.

After three centuries of ceiling, my power has long since diminished from its imperial heights.

While the source of fear has ascended to a royal level, this moment presents the optimal opportunity to reseal it.

Although your weapon differs from that of the Lord of the Undead, the legacy remains the same, and your abilities are certainly not inferior to theirs.

Compared to others of your era, you surpass me by a significant margin.

As compensation for sealing the source of fear, I shall also pass on the spatial magic entrusted to me, making you the future master of this dark forest.

Upon hearing this, Byu's eyes sparkled with excitement.

Such fortune was unexpected.

Yet, she sought confirmation.

I will seal it with a weapon, so spatial magic should not be necessary.

Correct? Fear not.

You will not be ens snared here as I was.

There will be no difference from your usual self.

And with your talents, you can easily subdue the source of fear.

This is the reward you deserve for sealing it on behalf of Silver Tide.

Guam Ming smiled, reminiscing about their former companions among the lords.

Very well, let us commence.

Bayou had intended to inquire further about the lords after resolving these matters as her knowledge of the Lord of the undead was limited, leaving her particularly curious about the lords.

All right, when the time comes, you shall touch the seal with your scythe, which should trigger a system prompt.

Just follow the instructions.

This is one of the significant advantages of being a lord.

Guaming did not instruct Bayou on how to seal it, knowing that the system would provide assistance.

Suddenly, Bayou observed Guam Ming s hand, which had been resting motionless on his lap, rise abruptly.

As he moved, the surrounding environment began to darken.

Guaming<unk>s meditative form slowly levitated, causing the massive stone beneath him to shatter, revealing a seemingly bottomless chasm in the earth below.

In the next moment, an imperial aura erupted, and a shadow surged forth.

However, the instant it broke through the surface, Guam Ming clasped his hands together, and the surrounding space instantaneously froze, binding the source of fear in place, rendering it immobile.

Standing nearby, Bayou discerned the true form of the source of terror, a bizarre entity of black energy, exuding an aura entirely distinct from that of death and darkness.

By you unshathed her scythe and gradually approached, lifting it effortlessly with one hand, piercing through the spatial barrier with ease.

She gently touched the source of fear with the back of her blade.

Detected special form life.

Would you like to use judgment scythe to absorb it? Absorb.

Chapter 367.

The spirit of the weapon as by you clicked on the system interface.

Besides appeared to possess an insatiable allure, fervently drawing in the trapped essence of fear.

It was only at this moment that Bayou noticed a faint crack had emerged in Guam Ming s spatial seal, astonishingly beginning to fracture after merely a brief span of seconds.

Should the seal shatter, the entity would vanish into oblivion, making it exceedingly difficult to trace.

Fortunately, the power of the system was formidable enough.

After all, the essence of fear was fundamentally an evolution of the military lineage of Inshi's father.

Where did this military lineage originate? It was none other than the system that procured it.

How could such a minuscule essence of fear dare to resist the system? In a mere moment, the essence of fear was completely liberated from the spatial seal and wholly absorbed by the scythe.

Congratulations.

The soul of the Lord's weapon has reached 100 condensation.

Would you like to select special form life as the weapon spirit? Note, any soul can become a weapon spirit, and the abilities of the weapon spirit will be conferred upon the weapon, bestowing it with unique powers.

A single weapon may possess only one weapon spirit, and once selected, it cannot be changed.

Did this even require contemplation? The essence of fear had accompanied Xi's father in countless battles over the years.

It must surely be a soul of imperial caliber.

Where else can one find such a weapon spirit? By you promptly clicked yes, prompting the system to display another message.

If you choose special form life as the weapon spirit, its intelligence will be entirely erased and will merge completely with the weapon, becoming inseparable and evolving alongside the weapon's level.

Do you wish to proceed? Huh? By you was taken back.

Was there such a fortunate turn of events? If that were the case, it would entirely become a part of the weapon, alleviating any fears of backlash.

After confirming to proceed, the scythe began to emanate a peculiar black energy, gradually solidifying.

Bayou grasped the scythe and inspected it closely, discovering a faint layer of black energy enveloping the blade.
