Chapter 437 The last soul
Yet the surprises weren't over. From within Lein's soul domain, a third figure emerged— a cosmic primate with an aura more majestic than the others. Its body radiated divine light, its fur not just pitch-black or fiery red, but shimmering like a vast starry field. Streams of gold and silver flowed through its body, creating the illusion of an endless sky.
The great primate walked with a confident stride, its presence shaking the space around it. Every movement carried authority, like a war god descending onto the battlefield. When it arrived at Lein's side, it stopped, lowered its head slightly in respect, waiting for orders.
[Celestial Primate – S]
- Soul Energy: 150,000
- Strength: S
- Defense: S
- Intelligence: S
- Agility: S@@novelbin@@
- (Primal Fist): A melee attack that relies on raw power. The Celestial Primate can unleash punches imbued with cosmic energy, shattering enemy defenses and stunning them for 2 seconds with a 90% chance. The attack can also bounce to other enemies within a 5-meter radius, dealing 200% additional damage to the next target. (Cooldown: 100 seconds)
Lein watched the creature with admiration—this soul had greater power than the other two, and its presence alone was enough to make enemies think twice before attacking.
Silence enveloped the battlefield. Everyone stared at the scene before them with disbelief. Three S-rank souls stood beside a young man, their energies resonating with the vast domain Lein had created.
Veyron finally stepped forward, swallowing hard before asking, his voice carrying a newfound depth of respect. "Young master... forgive me for asking so late, but what is your true name?"
His gaze remained fixed on the three colossal beings beside Lein, as if struggling to believe what he had just witnessed. Veyron's expression was difficult to decipher—there was respect, but more than that, there was something deeper. The young man before him was no ordinary figure.
Lein offered a small smile, his eyes gleaming with satisfaction as he observed the effect of the three S-rank souls standing at his side. "My name is Lein, sir, from the Divine Sky Realm," he replied calmly. Mentioning the Divine Sky Realm was not just an introduction—it was a subtle warning to Veyron. If he ever had dealings with that place, he would know the name to remember.
Veyron gave a slight nod before bowing respectfully. "A pleasure to meet you, Lord Lein. I am Veyron, from the Dominion Nova Consortium," he introduced himself.
Lein acknowledged him with a polite nod, maintaining an air of courtesy without excess. He did not wish to appear arrogant, but neither would he allow himself to be underestimated after all he had just demonstrated.
Meanwhile, Aleron and Taureil had yet to fully relax. A moment of awe had flickered across their faces, but their focus quickly returned to the pressing situation. The Divine Cannon they relied on had reached a critical point. The runes that had been rotating around the weapon now moved erratically, expanding with intensifying flashes of light before rapidly contracting. At that moment, the energy projectile was unleashed.

The colossal dragonfly that was their target did not remain idle. Its maw gaped wide, creating a vicious black vortex that spun wildly, attempting to devour the incoming energy. But the Divine Cannon's destructive force was far too immense. The vortex barely held for a moment before shattering into pieces, and the energy it had absorbed erupted violently from within.
In an instant, the upper half of the massive dragonfly vanished, as if erased into nothingness. But before anyone could react, its upper body reappeared—forced out from a dimensional rift it had created. The space around it cracked, revealing that even manipulating dimensions was not enough to evade such an attack.
At first, the beam seemed to have had no effect—its body remained intact, as though the attack had been nothing more than a passing wind. However, something far more terrifying occurred. The surrounding Void Swarm suddenly moved in a frenzy. If they had previously remained defensive, now they launched a brutal counterattack. They could no longer afford to remain passive while their progenitor was in danger.
"Everyone! This is our last chance!" Veyron's voice boomed, filled with urgency and authority.
"Attack!"
In an instant, his previously middle-aged form underwent a drastic transformation. His height increased several times over, his muscles hardened, and an aura of lightning enveloped his figure. In his grasp, a thunderous spear crackled, arcs of energy coursing wildly through the air. The dragon he rode let out a deafening roar before launching forward at an incredible speed, charging directly at the Void Swarm and the colossal dragonfly.
His two comrades, Haga and Kael, wasted no time. Without hesitation, they activated their spirit forms, unleashing surges of raw energy from their bodies. Alongside their respective Star Beasts, they soared into battle at full power.
"Lord Aleron, let's move!" Lein called out with determination.
His body began to change, gradually becoming translucent. His once-black eyes now shone a brilliant blue, his hair turned silver-white, flowing with an aura of divine energy. Silver light traced abstract patterns across his skin, radiating a majesty akin to an eternal spirit descending upon the battlefield.
Within seconds, Lein and his allies had fully assumed their spirit forms. Weightless, they surged toward the Void Swarm scattered across the battlefield, each bearing a unique form and power.
Lein's three soul beasts underwent their own transformations, their bodies expanding to a towering hundred meters, looming like celestial giants. Without hesitation, they each charged forward, selecting an elite-tier Void Swarm as their opponent.
Lein himself set his sights on a Void Swarm of the Protector rank. This creature was far larger than the others—a stone golem, covered in strange glowing runes that pulsed ominously in the darkness. Each step it took caused the very space around it to tremble.
Narrowing his eyes, Lein read the information that appeared before him.
