Discovering the Soul Roots

******************************************** 

Meanwhile, in the baby's body, there was a whole wreck.

Ren Qian groaned in pain when he woke up. He felt pain all over him. He then began to recall why he had fallen unconscious. After he had seen the golden energy within the formless energy, he felt oddly familiar. But when he tried to recall, he got a painful sensation in his head and his vision blackened. But, there was one thing that he was confused about. Before his vision completely left him, he saw the back of a woman who had the same golden energy in her hand and that emotion he felt, was one of affection.

This clouded his mind even further. He felt like he was suddenly thrown into a deep abyss with no way of leaving.

He had many questions before and now, he had even more.

But there were two things he was sure of now; he definitely had a past life and he could unlock his memories by seeing familiar things, like that golden energy for instance. However, when he saw that he was surrounded by a green scenery dense in soul energy, all of his thoughts halted.

'What is this place? How did I get to this forest? Am I completely dead now?', these were the clueless soul's thoughts when he looked around.

He tried to touch the energy and surprisingly, there was no resistance like when he touched the darkness in the evil baby soul's domain.

Suddenly thinking of the evil soul, he was reminded of the formless energy that had been refined by him.

"Hmm? Where is it?", Ren Qian began to move around, in search of the formless energy. The moment he moved, he felt an entity watching him.

He turned around in confusion but he saw nothing.

He continued walking on a particular path in hopes of getting out of the forest and finding out how he could get back to the evil soul's domain.

However, he seemed to be going on and on in circles, making him exasperated.

Then a crazy idea popped into his mind.

At least he found it crazy.

If he could 'see' the soul energy within him, he might be able to get a rough idea as to how he could use it.

So, he began to try and search within his soul for soul energy.

He sat on a branch and ironically, he didn't fall through.

This greatly surprised him.

However, he quickly dispelled his thoughts.

This was no time to have irrelevant thoughts.

'I have to get out of here and find that ball of energy'.

With this thought, he steeled his mind and closed his eyes in deep focus, desperate to get out of the unfamiliar place.

He entered a deep state of mind. Any passerby would have seen him as a dead man.

On the outside, he looked still and calm.

While on the inside, he felt himself roaming in a vast sky.

'Hmm? Another teleportation?', he thought.

But when he looked down from the sky, he could see five islands of different colors, fiery red, crystal clear, black, green, surrounding another bigger island which was golden.

The five islands were connected to the one in the middle, supplying it with energy through the connectors.

Ren Qian was mesmerized. He didn't know such a thing existed within his body.

Then, he thought, if there is such a big place full of energy, why can't I use it?'

Unfortunately, he might never get an answer to this question until he regained all of his memories.
