Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

In his eyes, it felt like this skull was alive or something, only missing flesh and it\'d be all good.

William unearthed the ground around the skull, digging with care to not harm the precious gem he found. Even if he was impressed with it, there was something that kept bothering him.

"This skull is so huge… How can I use it?" He knew storing it wasn\'t an issue as he could use a ring to do it. But when he thought about taking it out and using it, he couldn\'t help but feel weird.

"I\'ll store it first," William took an empty ring, enough to contain such a big skull. And then he touched the skull and thought about moving it towards the ring. Yet what happened next came out of his expectations.

"Hahahaha! You fell for it at last, hahahaha!" Just when William touched the skull, instead of the skull vanishing inside the ring, a series of things happened.

First of all, the ring that William tried to store the skull in got crushed. Out of the blue it shone brightly in white light, before turning into white dust in mere seconds. At the same time, the entire skull shone brightly in white light, before it vanished.

Yet William didn\'t feel any good. The ring that was supposed to store the skull got crushed. And that meant the skull got stored in another place, and he knew where it was even before that clone mocked him.

William felt like he got a severe backlash when the skull vanished. His spirit shook, and even his spirit body that he was activating faded and broke apart into thin white smoke.

That was weird, as William\'s fox body was grey in colour, more like a faded black. But before it vanished, William saw it turn a bit white. Then he felt a weird weakness assaulting him, before coughing up blood.

"Hahahaha! You got that damn beast\'s spirit, hahahaha! Now you have a spirit that will suck dry your spirit power all the time. Let\'s see how you\'ll even properly fight, not to mention being able to raise your spirit power, hahahahaha!"

"F*ck you!" William roared and in the middle of his rage, he let Charley kill that clone. He got fed up with his useless taunts and mockery and wasn\'t in the mood to listen to anything at this moment.

Right now, he got what this monster was really after. It did something and let the spirit of that ancient and extinct scary monster to force its way inside his spirit despite not willing to.

William started to examine his spirit and body. His current condition was least to be described as being messy. "Hmm… So, it just exploded and sucked most of my spirit power when it entered my spirit. Then it went into slumber, the same way the other spirit did. The question still remains, is it safe or what?"

William knew this monster\'s spirit had the ability to suck spirit power. He didn\'t know anything else about the true abilities of this ancient spirit, but he got the feeling that he\'d suffer from regular backlashes from time to time. Or else that monster wouldn\'t take such trouble to force this spirit upon him.

William didn\'t get the answer to that question, but he knew the one who\'d got it. "I need to go out first," he gulped a few drops of an elixir, replenishing his spirit power and healing the damage his body took.

The aftermath of this fierce spirit wasn\'t just limited to the depletion of spirit power, but also extended to hit his body and damage it.

After recuperation, William turned around and found nothing else in this place. "I\'m sure that bastard dreamt of killing me using all this set up. Yet if he failed, he planned to leave me with such a curse to let me suffer."

William didn\'t think too much about this. He knew soon enough he\'d get all the answers and information about this spirit. Then he\'d start thinking about what he should do.

He knew of certain ways to get rid of spirits dormant inside any master, but they were quite risky and hard to perform. His alternate option was to fully integrate this spirit into his. Yet that also carried tons of dangers.

William threw all this behind his back for now and started to lay down a breaking formation. This formation was much smaller than the ones he used to break the illusions before. But it was enough to take him out from here.

As he was doing this, the situation outside was getting under control. The flying monsters carried all the masters over, and finally they managed to reach the safe outer area.

Only Zin and a few others of pinnacle grade masters remained behind. They stuck there to wait for William to emerge from the academy.

"It\'s collapsing!" Just as they were flying around on the backs of the monsters, everyone saw the sudden cracks that appeared all over the ground carrying the academy.

It felt like someone dealt a hidden blow or devastating attack at that grand pillar of rocks. The piece of land that stood erect and withstood the trembling and shaking of the world around started to shake fiercely and show deep cracks.

Large pieces of rocks like boulders started to separate and fall all the way down to the lava world at the rock bottom. Seeing this made all of the masters staying behind to feel instant panic and worry.

"What shall we do?" one of them asked, "I tried, but my earth techniques can\'t help at all!"

"We… Have nothing to do to save him," Zin bitterly smiled, "he needs to get out before the total fall of this damn place."

Zin was right, the entire academy was crashing on its own, without anyone interfering or doing anything.
