As soon as the tiny spec of soul energy reached and tried to probe into Jason's middle dantian, it realized that there was a cosmic amount of densely packed soul energy present inside the middle dantian. This large amount of soul energy inevitably put a lot of pressure on the tiny bit of soul energy that tried to invade into its space.
As the one directly connected to the spec of soul energy, Jane also found herself facing the same pressure that was being emitted by Jason's immense soul energy. The pressure was so much that she almost froze from it, but just at the last second before her mind completely froze, she managed to disconnect herself from the soul energy that she was controlling.
"Ah," Jane let out a faint cry as she abruptly pulled her hand away from Jason's hand. Even after retracting her hand, she was still in shock; her eyebrows widened with fear and surprise from what she had just experienced.
"What happened?" Jason asked as he felt Jane abruptly releasing his hand. Due to the dark environment, he still couldn't see Jane's shocked reaction.
Perhaps due to shock, but it seemed as if Jane did not hear his question. She was lost in her thoughts.
'What the hell was that? That amount of soul energy?! Also, it seemed to be so densely packed. Don't tell me... supreme grade soul energy? Even a Divine Saint Emperor cannot have so much supreme grade soul energy. '
'Could it be that this is what that bastard Reed is after? But why? What does he plan to do with this amount of soul energy? Could it be...'
Jane suddenly froze when a certain thought came to her mind. Surely, it was not that right?
"Jason, did you see any strange mark on your body recently? Like a skull or something?"
"Huh, why do you ask? Oh, now that I remember, I do have a Black Skull tattoo on my chest. Reed said that this was the mark of the Skull Marked Sect and everyone had a similar tattoo on their body."
"What? Can you show it to me?"
"Err, as I said it is on my chest, so I would need to take my upper robe off."
(A.N. - He is wearing clothes similar to Goku's signature brown ones but in black color. If anyone knows the name of these clothes, please let me know.)
"Just show it to me. It is very important at this moment." Jane said urgently.
"Ah... ok then."
Jason slowly started to take off his upper robe even though he was extremely embarrassed. Knowing clearly that this girl could see him as clear as day, he was extremely embarrassed. At this moment, all he wanted to do was find a hole and hide in it.
But Jane did not pay any attention to him or his embarrassment. The moment her eyes laid on the Black Skull tattoo, her eyes widened in horror.
'This is... This is... So that means, Oh God!! This is so bad'
"Well, do you know anything about this tattoo? If you know something then please tell me."
"You.. you..." Jane tried to speak but no words ever escaped her mouth. She just couldn't find any words to say.
"What happened? Is there something wrong with me? You can tell me, don't worry about anything."
"You idiot. That is the mark of the Skull Lord himself. The fact that you have this mark means that the Skull Lord is trying to take over your soul!!!" Jane replied frantically.
"What? The Evil Lord whom Reed is serving is trying to take over my soul? Isn't he in God Realm? If he is so strong, why has he not succeeded in taking over my soul till now?"
"You... Are you really from a very lower plan and have never cultivated before?"
"Of course, I come from a planet called Earth and there, cultivation is unheard of. Why do you ask? You should have realized that when you scanned my body, right?"
"Yes, I did scan your body, and indeed you did not have any trace of universal energy in you; but..."
"But?"
"You have massive amounts of soul energy. The amount is so high that not even the strongest person on this plane would be able to compare it to you. Not only the quantity but the quality is also of superior grade, which is the purest form of soul energy."
"What?"
Jason was completely dumbfounded when he heard all this. He, who had never cultivated in his entire life, had so much energy within him?
"Are you sure about this?"
"Of course. I am 100% sure about this. Do I sound like I am joking?"
"Then it is a good thing, right? Perhaps this energy is helping me to fight against the Skull Lord's invasion and preventing it from taking over? There shouldn't be anything to worry about."
"You don't get it. Just having energy without any techniques to channel and use the energy is absolutely useless. Even though I do not know how your soul protected itself, it was most probably some last-ditch effort where it managed to channel some of your intense soul energy around itself to stay safe from the Skull Lord's invasion."
"This is very similar to the Supreme Grade technique Soul Shield. But since you are not consciously deploying it, we cannot rely on this to keep you protected forever."
"Oh, so it is like this..." Jason thought for a moment before he asked. "What can the Skull Lord hope to accomplish by getting the soul energy inside me? Do you have any suggestions as to how to deal with this situation?"
"Once the Skull Lord takes over your soul, it can slowly absorb all of your soul energy, and make it his own. But I have doubts whether that is what Reed has in his mind. "
"Maybe this energy can help call the Skull Lord's avatar into this plane, and he plans on doing that to take over the other races?" Jason suggested.
"That is impossible unless there is an absolutely huge amount of soul energy...." Jane stopped as she realized what she was saying and what the current situation was, then suddenly screamed out.
"Oh my God, he is definitely planning to forcefully summon the Skull Lord into this plane. If he successfully does that, then none of the other races would be able to stand up against him even if they all united against him. Jason, we have to stop him!!! "
