Primordial: I, Dijun, Only Want to Build the Great Desolation-Chapter 447 - 306: Netherworld Great World

Hou Tu felt an inexplicable calmness overcome her originally agitated mood upon seeing these endlessly wandering souls.

Hou Tu naturally noticed this as well, but she couldn’t understand how these aimless, drifting souls could affect her own emotions.

However, the appearance of souls in Primordial is not at all out of the ordinary.

When life perishes, it is perfectly normal for souls that have not been destroyed to exist within Primordial.

Hou Tu had indeed seen souls before, but it had never sparked a change in her emotions.

The Houtu Ancestor Witch, unlike other Ancestor Witches, cultivated Evil Qi but also possessed the deep solidity of the earth.

It was for this reason that the Houtu Ancestor Witch could persist and attend Daoist Ancestor Hong Jun’s lectures at the Purple Cloud Palace three times.

The Houtu Tribe is also one of the more tranquil tribes among the Witch Clan.

The Houtu Ancestor Witch simply watched these wandering souls quietly, feeling a profound sense of peace, a sensation she found extremely comforting.

She did not know the reason for this, but she wanted to find out.

Without realizing it, the Houtu Ancestor Witch’s attention was completely focused on these wandering souls.

Even following the movement of these drifting souls.

The Houtu Ancestor Witch did not know how long she had followed these souls, but she suddenly noticed that these wandering souls were fading away, almost disappearing.

Seeing this, her heart involuntarily panicked; the Earth Law followed Houtu’s movement, descending upon these wandering souls as she instinctively tried to preserve them.

Regrettably, Hou Tu was after all an Ancestor Witch who practiced the Evil Qi of Primordial Heaven and Earth, fused with her own flesh and Law.

When Earth Law descended upon these souls, the drifting souls instantly dissolved, turning into dust-like particles that fell upon the Primordial Land.

The Houtu Ancestor Witch was stunned by this scene.

Although she was the least involved in conquest and slaughter among the Witch Clan Ancestor Witches, she was skilled at fighting and killing.

She was certainly aware that Evil Qi was not beneficial to most Primordial Beings in Primordial.

But this action was taken when her spirit was completely immersed in these wandering souls, a subconscious reaction in her moment of panic.

She had not anticipated that these already dissipating souls would disappear in an instant.

When the Houtu Ancestor Witch snapped back to reality, looking at the not yet completely fallen soul dust, her heart did not feel guilty, nor was it sad or sorrowful.

As an Ancestor Witch, who had slaughtered countless, how could she feel guilt, sorrow, or sadness over the inadvertent killing of these souls?

However, seeing the vanish of these souls, Houtu’s mood did not revert to its original irritation.

No, not even a hint of irritation manifested.

But at this moment, for some reason, she always felt an emptiness inside her.

It was as if something had dissipated.

After a long while, the Houtu Ancestor Witch made up her mind.

Since souls could bring about changes in her emotions, she would actively seek out souls to thoroughly investigate the cause.

There are many life forms in Primordial, and every day many die, so there is no shortage of souls in Primordial.

Thus, the Houtu Ancestor Witch walked through Primordial, heading to where souls congregated.

Along the way, Houtu indeed saw many souls of all types, none lacking.

Whenever she saw a soul, her heart felt fulfilled, regardless of the type of soul.

And when souls disappeared, the heart of the Houtu Ancestor Witch felt empty.

Throughout her journey, the most common souls she encountered were the mindless wandering souls she had first seen.

These souls were formed from the mundane living beings and those with low cultivation, by some fortuitous coincidence.

Only because their souls were not strong enough in life did they not form Spiritual Wisdom.

Seeing these types of souls, the Houtu Ancestor Witch felt very tranquil, simply watching them quietly.

There were also ferocious souls that had lost their Spiritual Wisdom.

But even the ferocious souls could not act out in the presence of the Houtu Ancestor Witch.

With a wave of her hand, she could scatter them, without affecting her mood.

The most important type of soul was those that retained their intellect and could communicate normally.

It was the existence of these sentient souls that allowed the Houtu Ancestor Witch to gain a deeper understanding of souls.

These sentient souls actually cannot exist in Primordial for long.

According to them, the environment of Primordial is not suitable for the presence of souls.

Once they perish, the souls that manifest in Primordial face the most common and enduring of calamities, which is the Innate Spiritual Energy.

Under the baptism of Primordial Innate Spirit Qi, sentient souls gradually lose their intellect, and then the soul gradually dissipates within the Primordial World.

Even the most ferocious of souls cannot exist eternally in the Primordial World.

Innate Spiritual Energy, and even Acquired Spiritual Energy, are not nourishing substances for pure souls; they are rather like a slow poison.

However, for those beings who have cultivated their souls into Primordial Spirits, they can absorb Innate and even Acquired Spiritual Energy.

They are able to survive in the Primordial World as Primordial Spirits.
