Chapter 544 The tyrant\'s choice
This is why he did not try to talk to him for a long time at first nor did bother to answer his questions: Why do you talk so much to a dead person?
How could he know that Robin was subjected to a strange soul refinement experiment that completely changed the shape, composition, and strength of his soul? If the power of Hoffenheim\'s soul can be represented by water, then Robin\'s spirit can now be said to be like oil, they were both close in shape but have completely different properties, and characteristics. Even Hoffenheim, who lived hundreds of thousands of years and studied the soul like the back of his hands, has never heard of such a strange soul transformation!
It was shocking enough when he saw Robin\'s soul avatar for the first time and found that it took his external body form and was not just an orb-shaped mass of soul force like him and all the creatures he studied!
As for Robin, he ignored him and looked around for a few minutes while placing his chubby arms behind his back, then he finally looked towards the Tree Father Soul Orb and spoke, "Listen, Hoofy, I have never tried using the Soul Filling Technique outside of my own soul domain before, and even though you barely have around 20% of your usual soul power and wouldn\'t bring too many benefits after gone through this transformation, I\'m still curious about what would happen if the used my Soul Filling Technique on a primal soul instead of just soul force, especially the primal soul of a being who\'s lived as long as you and have experienced all those wars and schemes... But then again, I understand that you took you had to take your shot, If I were you I would have done the same, and it just happened that I still have respect for the strong, so I\'ll give you a chance, that last one."
With a slight movement of his hands, the soul enslavement seal that was in Hoffenheim\'s possession returned to float towards him, and quickly changes began to appear on the seal, becoming visibly larger and far more complex, "At first I was just going to be content with monitoring your intentions against me, but now I can\'t do that, leaving someone like you without real supervision is a real danger that I cannot ignore. If you accept this seal, you will be a slave in every sense of the word, both in soul and body. You will only do what I command you to do and you cannot kill a bug if I do not command you to. But I am prepared to use the oath patterns to swear to you that I will release you in a thousand years to choose what you want to do then, by then if you want to keep following me I will treat you as a real follower with much litter conditions, and if you want to break free I will allow you to do as you please... What is your decision?"
After Robin finished speaking, he loosened the restrictions on Hoffenheim\'s soul
After a full minute of silence, Hoffenheim let out a long sigh, "Heeh~ I lived a long and fulfilling life like a Treant, in which I had friends, family, and war comrades, but in the end, I chose to abandon them and return to Earth in order to prolong my life and gain the respect and reverence from the ordinary Treant creatures... Since I returned to Earth and became an ancient treant, I have been sleeping at times and contemplating the affairs of creation and the soul at times like the rest of the ancient Treants do. Even before that humans came up with the method of energy cultivation, I had a deep idea of what was happening around me, and of the influence of the world\'s spirit. ..."
"...And after analyzing the humans\' method of cultivation and discovering a way to strengthen us, the Treants, that would make us sense the world spirit better and know about the ultimate prize, the war of extermination began. With my own hands, I killed countless numbers of humans and Treants and exterminated entire other races that were still on the rise. I schemed until no one was saved and I killed until no one was left alive anywhere I reached, I transgressed so much in my pursuit that I harmed the world\'s soul that I was trying to reach, I did everything in order to obtain victory and have my ultimate prize, and I really almost did it!! ...But in the end, defeat comes from someone who is not even from our world."
Then finally, the soul orb focused on Robin\'s avatar, "Leader of the Invaders, Robin Burton, you are the winner, but I am not ready to be anyone\'s slave, and I am also not ready to leave my primal soul for you to benefit from. If there is a hell, I hope to meet you there!"
"This is bad," Robin spoke quickly and waved his hand to suppress Hoffenheim\'s soul again, but he was too late
*poof*
A small explosion started from inside the soul orb and was expanding outward, but Robin\'s silver soul power, which he quickly regained, suppressed the explosion inside and kept the soul orb as it was, or almost as it was...
Currently, there is no longer any awareness inside.
"..." Robin shook his head and sighed when he felt this. Tree Father Hoffenheim was an exceptional entity that carried in his soul a huge amount of experience and secrets. Having someone like him next to him would have helped him a lot, even reading his soul carefully would have saved him a lot.
But now he has not only lost the person but his soul as well.
It is worth noting that the soul domain did not disappear immediately after the primal soul died, but Robin could clearly feel that the energy inside it was beginning to leak out and this place would collapse soon, so he had to hurry, and indeed the soul-filling technique did not let him down.
*Vroom* *Vroom*
Since there was no longer any use for this place and it was going to collapse anyway, Robin directly activated the Soul Filling Technique and small vortexes began to appear. This time, the vortexes were not only focused on the soul mass but began to eat away at the walls of the Soul Domain itself.
In just a few minutes, the Soul Domain had shrunk from a small world to the size of a house. Everything around him was now pitch black because the remaining spot was the one that had been consumed by the lightning bolts. Robin did not dare try to absorb it.
As for the giant soul orb, it shrunk until it became the size of a regular football. But what was strange about this ball was that it was asymmetrical and seemed to be about to explode from within, but the silver aura around it prevented it. At the same time, engraved on it was an unclear image of a powerful treant creature mutated from a camphor tree. Robben quickly attributed that photo to Hoffenheim in his youth... This ball was obviously Hoffenheim\'s primal soul.
...When Robin pulled out all the energy in the soul domain and the soul force mass until they reached this state, he immediately stopped the soul-filling technique and noticed the changes in himself... His current silver body had not changed much, it could be said that it had only become larger by a few millimeters.
Although he was disappointed, this only lasted for a few moments. This was to be expected after all, as he experienced something similar when he absorbed what was left of the thundercloud into his soul domain.
Then he ignored his development again and returned to looking at Hoffenheim\'s primal soul. This was the first abstract primal soul he had seen with his eyes and wasn\'t his. Although it was not intact and would explode if he removed his silver soul pressure around it, it still aroused his curiosity. In the end, it was not just soul energy. Rather, it is one of the secrets of creation, and saying that it is the secret of life itself would not be an exaggeration!
What would happen if he tried to absorb it?
...What would happen if he tried to get it out of here?!
