Chapter 23 Changes in the Spirit Realm

In the spirit world, Rosso and Zhao Xin appeared in a pavilion with a unique style.

When Xin Zhao appeared in the Spirit Realm, the same phenomenon that occurred when Karon entered the Spirit Realm repeated itself. A rumbling sound echoed through the Spirit Realm once more, and the already vast territory, larger than before Rosso entered Runeterra, expanded even further.

The Demon Realm, which initially occupied the entire territory of the Spirit Realm, now occupies less than one-third of the entire Spirit Realm's territory.

A platinum moon appeared, occupying opposite positions in the spirit world sky as a dark purple moon.

The two are different in size. The star to which Kalon's origin belongs is slightly larger, but the star formed by Zhao Xin's origin is not much smaller.

Rosso found it strange. Logically speaking, Zhao Xin's soul strength was far inferior to Kalon's, and his soul essence should not be able to rival Kalon's.

After careful observation, Rosso sensed a power within their respective origins that did not belong to them.

"It's somewhat like the fundamental substance that constitutes the world, the origin of the world!" Rosso exclaimed in realization. "So, Zhao Xin's ability to rival Charon isn't just due to the amplification of his divine body, but also the feedback from the origin of the world?"

Now we also found the reason for the growth of the spirit world: special souls like Zhao Xin and Kalon, who have a certain proportion in the original world, will receive the world's blessings. The larger their proportion, the more blessings they will receive from the world, and the more world essence they will absorb into the spirit world, thus making the spirit world grow stronger.

"So, those demonic creatures that were affected and died, Mordekaiser's army of bound spirits, did not receive the world's blessing? It seems we'll need to verify that later."

Rosso wasn't in a hurry to figure out the difference between the two. He accepted any soul, regardless of its type, as long as it could be absorbed into the spirit world. As long as the spirit world could still accommodate them, he wanted both quality and quantity.

"Is this the Spirit Realm?" Zhao Xin was very curious as he stepped into another world for the first time. What kind of place was this place, the soul land of his lord, which could persuade the Twin Death Gods to retreat?

Upon truly stepping into the spirit realm, Zhao Xin's first feeling was one of familiarity.

It's somewhat similar to the place called the spiritual realm that they set foot in when they went to stop Aeon's resurrection.

This feeling is even stronger now that I am still in a spirit state.

"My lord, welcome back." Karon, dressed in white robes, appeared silently beside Zhao Xin and bowed to Rosso.

All the creatures in the spirit world could see the changes in the sky, and Kalon was no exception. He also understood what these changes represented.

So when the golden moon appeared, Charon immediately went to the place where new souls had been appearing recently.

For these souls that were clearly not from Arad, Karon could only designate a separate area for them and place the selected souls together.

At first, because too many unfriendly souls came at once, Charon had to set up a node where they appeared, which was the pavilion where Rosso returned.

This pavilion will strip away the power of foreign souls that do not belong to the spirit world, making it easier for Kalon to suppress them. The power will only be returned to them after they have been settled.

"My lord, who is this?" The moment Kalon appeared, Zhao Xin felt an immense threat emanating from the white-robed man. If it weren't for the fact that Rosso's expression remained unchanged, Zhao Xin would have already turned his weapon against him.

"His name is Kalon. He's an assistant I recruited in a world called Arad. You two can be considered colleagues in some ways."

Rosso carefully sensed the changes in the spirit world and nodded to Kalon.

"From now on, Zhao Xin will be the sharpest blade in the spirit world—the Edge of the Spirit World. From now on, leave the matters that require 'communication' with the outside world to him. You just need to manage the souls in the spirit world as you are now."

"Yes, my lord!"

Looking back at the black vortex connecting Runeterra, Rosso thought of the Yordles in Bandle City. With a thought, he modified all the locations in the Spirit Realm where Nekron had been imbued with stripping power.

An exemption status has been added, except for those granted by Rosso.

Rosso knew why Caron did this; it was definitely related to the binding spirits that had been shoved in. Furthermore, Rosso couldn't guarantee that Caron wouldn't do something like this again, so he allowed Caron to use this method.

Rosso then immediately made the portal to Bandle City accessible and left a message on the door: "Remember to contact me when you come, or your life will be in danger."

The Yordles are able to live in the spiritual realm of Runeterra not only because they are blessed by the world, but also because the spiritual realm there does not exclude the material world.

But the spirit world is different.

The interdimensional teleportation vortexes are the only way for the spirit world to connect with the outside world. Only souls and energy can pass through these portals. Once a physical entity enters the spirit world, it cannot be reformed into a physical form without the intervention of Rosso.

Almost as soon as the message was sent, a response came from Bandle City.

"I, Tristana, and Lulu are ready!" Upon receiving Rosso's message, Teemo was overjoyed and quickly gathered Tristana, who was taking care of "Boom," and Lulu, who was counting stars, to send a request to Rosso to enter the realm.

One after another, the three little Yordles jumped into the rather unique portal in the passageway.

Within the spirit realm, Rosso controls the energy transformed from the bodies of three Yordles, constructing bodies for them identical to those in the outside world.

"Is this the world beyond this world?" Tristana asked in astonishment, looking around from the railing of the pavilion as if trying to see what was different about this world.

"Lulu feels a sense of familiarity here, it's very similar to the Rainbow Wonderland I visited before!" Lulu tapped her staff, constantly reassuring Pixar.

Timo didn't say anything, he just held the blueprints and kept taking notes, from this pavilion to that flower and grass, from this sapling to that body of water.

Before long, Teemo started chatting with Xin Zhao and Kalon.

Zhao Xin is alright; having learned from Kennen's experience, he's not entirely unfamiliar with the Yordles.

But it was different for Karon. He had seen creatures from other worlds before, but he could see something different in this little thing in front of him—an extremely pure soul.

Therefore, Karon was willing to answer Teemo's question.

"You look just like someone from a place called Ionia back home!"

What is the underworld?

"Is this place called the Spirit Realm?"

"Arad? There's a place that's similar to Runeterra?"

Teemo is like a question machine, always having endless questions. Eventually, even Tristana and Lulu joined in asking questions.

However, what they care about most is that new world that is similar to Runeterra.
