The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 1045 - 407: Goddess Ba, Awaken!_2

Thanks to the communion of bloodlines, gods impenetrable, this principle does not truly manifest in the Hanba Clan.

But Elder Yin, Elder Yang, Ye Liuying, and Mang Hao, could only glimpse in shock and swiftly turn away their gaze.

Ye Hanjun was able to hold on a little longer, he saw Goddess Ba reach out her hand, touched her severed neck, and that confusion emanating from within seemed denser than the morning dew:

"Such a feeling of weakness..."

"Who am I? Who are all of you? Where is this place?"

As soon as these words came out, all the corpses were in an uproar.

Mie Quan and the Buddhist chants were stunned, looking at the headless Goddess Ba in disbelief:

"Ancestor... have you also lost your memory?"

"No no no, this can’t be possible. It’s one thing for us to lose our memories, but you are one of the strongest god sealers, as the Nether Corpse God, who could possibly taint your divine consciousness?"

"Keep calm, let me think..."

The headless Goddess Ba stood in place, unresponsive.

At that moment, all the Hanba closed their mouths, not daring to interrupt Her thoughts.

Ye Hanjun, enduring the pain in his eyes, activated his ability to see if he could find additional clues.

"Talent Identification!"

——

[Species Name]: Goddess Ba

[Chaos Seal]: "Underworld" (Holder of Nether Divinity)

[Main Study]: Dao of the body/Plundering Path/Immortality Tao/Undying Tao/Tao of the Corpse God/Samsara Tao...

[Contractual Relationship]: None

——

"This?"

Ye Hanjun was also stunned.

The most important part of the attribute panel was inevitably the state section.

The states of Goddess Ba were numerous, dozens of densely packed lines that at first glance were dizzying.

But Ye Hanjun, after carefully identifying them, felt a chill down his spine, his hair standing on end.

"Taboo Curse", "Hyper Evolution"... what are all these, why can’t I understand?

"Heavenly Dao Constraint" was somewhat traceable.

As the holder of dual authority, Ye Hanjun had suffered the Heavenly Dao’s lockdown, accused of offending the heavens, to be killed without mercy.

Through various chances, he had luckily ascended to the seventh rank, and since then he had escaped the surveillance of the Heavenly Dao, gaining another kind of freedom in the obscure sense.

But wasn’t this supposed to happen only because of dual authority? Goddess Ba was not human, why would She be bound by the Heavenly Dao, and how did She break free?

—— A multitude of questions came one after another.

Ye Hanjun was at a loss, the more he thought about it, the more confused he became.

Suddenly, the mental fluctuations of Goddess Ba subtly changed, the vacant dullness in her head disappeared, and a strand of profundity, a strand of wisdom reflected in the heartstrings:

"I remember now, I am Goddess Ba, the leader of the Hanba Clan, the Solar Abyss is my domain..."

"Mie Quan, Mu Yi, Shi Qiong, it has been a long time."

"The other Hanba, where are they? I recall that there were nearly a hundred members of our tribe..."

"Ancestor! It is now the Second Epoch of the New Era! It’s been an immense time since the Ancient Era!"

"All the clan members from our time have perished, and now the only pure-blooded Hanba that remain alive are the seven of us!"

Mie Quan explained earnestly and respectfully:

"Including the Solar Abyss, after the Ancient Era and before the Near Ancient Era, it suffered a devastating blow!"

"If not for the sacrifice of the Wheel of Deep Red, this place would have completely collapsed and no life would have survived!"

"We await Your return not only for you to sit in the Abyss and shelter countless clans but also to seek the truth of those days through Your supreme power!"

"What exactly happened during that Broken Era Calamity?"

"Why have we survivors all lost a part of our memories, unable to recall the scenes of that time?"

As they spoke, Mie Quan and Shi Qiong were all gritting their teeth in resentment.

Mu Yi’s lips were pursed tightly, he had not lost his memory, but as he lay hidden within the Corpse Dragon Queen’s tribe and sealed himself, he knew nothing of that history.

"Um..."

The headless Goddess Ba suddenly embraced her own neck with a corpse claw, a visible agony clearly manifesting:

"My memory too was severed..."

"The enemy was very strong, far beyond my comprehension..."

"The events of that year... I... cannot remember!"

Hearing this, the corpses fell silent again.

As the atmosphere of the conversation grew increasingly heavy, Ye Hanjun licked his lips and cautiously asked:

"Goddess Ba, do you recall... the Taboo Curse?"

"Or perhaps, Hyper Evolution, Heavenly Dao Constraint... do you retain any fragment of memory of these?"

"Taboo Curse?"

Goddess Ba did not mind why a human was mixed with the Hanba, and with a slight startle, her corpse claw suddenly pierced into her flesh, and dark blue corpse blood surged:

"I do not know! I have no idea!"

"But ’Hyper Evolution’, that term feels so familiar; I must have heard it somewhere, definitely heard it somewhere!"

Goddess Ba’s emotions suddenly went wild, and She began to coerce her own soul at the cost of self-harm.

Mie Quan’s body shook, and then his corpse eyes became chaotic, completely clueless about these terms.

"Above the Divine Enthronement, is there a higher realm?"

"Are you, because you are too powerful, touching upon a God above God, actually suppressed by the Heavenly Dao?"

Ye Hanjun spoke deliberately, word by word.

No sooner had his words fallen than thunder brewed in the skies above, a radiant golden sun inexplicably mixed with a tinge of blood.

"Did I guess correctly?"

Ye Hanjun immediately shut his mouth, not daring to utter another word.

Then, the pervasive sense of danger slowly faded, like the discomfort of being in mud, receding like the tide.
