Sam finally felt the crack he wanted to feel.

He knew something will happen as soon as the emergency plan was activated. Even though the smile is not physical the old vampire king clearly felt the change is the state of mind of Sam and also the faint reduction in the energy that was being supplied to him.

But he didn't think it was a big deal. This ritual has taken place many times and sometimes the Consummate realm cultivators became exhausted so much that they fainted or even died, then the energy fluctuations are bound to happen.

"What are you feeling so happy about? Your body transformation is finished and it is indeed extremely balanced and perfect, so I would be taking it over now and release you out of your misery."

Sam just smirked and said.

"You will definitely know why I am happy in a few minutes as for the rest of your nonsense, that is just your pipe dream."

"Have you become delusional after spending this long resisting me?"

Sam didn't even bother to reply as he just let the process finish and slowly he could feel the resistance on his body is being reduced.

Meanwhile, on the surface, the Consummate realm cultivator that is trying to get rid of the vines is having the nightmare of his life. No matter what he tried he couldn't get rid of the vine and his energy is being sucked dry.

He felt the despair for the first time in a while. After all these years he reached the Consummate realm cultivation and he is not willing to give his life away just because he tried to kill a Pre-transcendent stage cultivator.

He felt that it is so unfair. He cannot do this at all. He just wanted to live.

If not for the fact that he is a consummate realm cultivator, he wouldn't be able to last this long even now it seemed like it would take hours to fully absorb from him but still there are already tens of flowers blooming out of the vines, the same thing happened in all the directions of the pit as one cultivator after other are being trapped by the vines and then growing rapidly before reaching another target.

The situation is extremely tense and soon, the formation stopped working when the vines finally reached the Vampire King.

Everyone spat out some blood and felt like their souls are being sucked away from their bodies.

The energy in the surroundings became a chaotic mess. Except for the Vampire King, no one else was able to resist the effects of the vine, but he couldn't do much at least he couldn't escape the vine completely all he can do is use the special energy that could access since his cultivation is past the Consummate realm.

While the fate of the Vampires is in a pickle, Sam finally relaxed and the former Vampire King's soul suddenly trembled as he lost the extra strength that helped him to maintain the ritual.

"What did you do?" He asked Sam in a tense voice.

"Does it really matter? You are going to disappear anyway. It would just be a waste of my time to explain."

"WHAT DID YOU DO?" The voice became freaky as he felt the connection being lost with the other cultivators on the surface. After that outburst, he calmed himself down and said.

"It doesn't matter if you did something to them. Their involvement will be minimal in the next step anyway, I can manage it myself."

As soon as he said that the corpse moved and pin Sam to the wall and the soul tried to devour Sam's soul.

But when he took that step, there is a faint interval for Sam to access his own body and spiritual consciousness was free for a fraction of a second. He didn't dare let that opportunity slip past him and took two things out of the divine dimension.

The first one is the strand of hair from SunWukong and the second one is the pillar he obtained in his quest to find the meteorite sand.

He threw the strand of hair at the corpse and the Sun Wukong Clone appeared with staff while Sam yelled.

"Guardian, you better come out and destroy this soul now."

The Old man's wisp of the soul came out of the pillar and shot into Sam's mind to battle with the soul of the Vampire King.

"This soul is stronger than a Consummate, just what kind of people are you pissing off? Anyway, why are you even in contact with the Vampires? Just how much of a trouble maker are you?" The guardian asked as a large mental battle took place in his mind.

The corpse is not extremely powerful and within the Consummate realm level, so there is no need for Sam to worry. The Monkey King's clone is more than capable enough to destroy that corpse.

He kept all the concentration on the mental battle. Since the battle is taking place in his own mind and due to the specialty of his own soul that came from other world and the superior strength of it that is past the Pre-transcendent realm and almost strong enough to be a Transcendent realm is a plus that he could even survive that mental storm in his brain.

He could almost imagine the guardian and the Vampire battling it out on the open field.

There is immense pressure on Sam's mind and he even started bleeding from his nose from time to time.

The chaotic aftershocks of the SunWukong beating the crap out of that corpse started rocking the whole well and even on the surface the vampire can feel the aftershocks and wondered what is happening. Even in their state of despair, they could think of this, because there are hundreds of people who are sent under the well and they died without any signs.

Those people are stronger, older, and powerful than Sam, but they still died. So, it came as shock that Sam managed to create this commotion that too after a month.

Soon the physical battle under that is over and the Vampire King's soul also took so much damage and since the support from the rest of the Vampires has disappeared.

"I can't go down like this. I CANT GO DOWN LIKE THIS. I am the greatest of all the Vampire Kings, I will not let this happen."

Guardian's soul wisp is also extremely weak from all the damage and said to the Vampire King.

"So, you are the guy that caused the whole Vampire race to be stuck in that hellhole. I didn't know you turned this weak. I wouldn't have even looked at you from a mile if you were still alive, but you are already brought to this stage, what a shame."

As he spoke he finished off the Vampire King.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooo...." The soul of the Vampire King disappeared along with his voice.

Sam could see the soul wisp of the Guardian that is so damaged that he would take at least two years to recover. He is at his weakest.

The wisp of soul came out of Sam's head and said to him.

"Don't call me out in the near future. The damage is too much I need to preserve my energy to lead you to my place when you reach that realm. He wanted to return to the pillar, but Sam didn't let him. He held the pillar and blocked him.

"Sorry, I wouldn't be needing your services anymore. Goodbye."

Sam said as he waved his hand to call out the specter that he captured in the Bat Cave along with the Wight commander.

"What do you mean?" The Guardian asked with a frown.

"Do you really think I am so naïve? A valuable treasure such as this pillar fell into a desolate realm and you want me to take it back? You should have thought a better idea, do you know why? There is someone knowledgeable about the realms I can get in touch with and they said one thing.

That only the ones that should be kept in that realm will be kept there. Nothing ever comes to the desolate realm by mistake."

As soon as he said that, the Guardian has gone angry and was about to attack Sam. But the specter stopped him with the assistance of Sam's mental strength.

"Well, arrows in the dark surely hit well," Sam said with a sigh.

The guardian widened his eyes and said in disbelief.

"You bluffed."

"Of course I did. And since you are at your weakest you became nervous that I might get rid of you if I find anything suspicious in your answer so you attacked in panic.

I don't know what is so good about you guys, you are just like any other human I came into contact with me, easy to bluff and easy to fool. And fortunately for me, you fell for it and I can erase you without any guilt."

As he spoke he used all his mental energy and injected it into the specter to help him consume the rest of the soul of the Guardian.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooo…."

The same situation repeated. Sam let the specter back in and looked around. Almost all the blood in the pool disappeared. He looked towards the mouth and decided to go out first before he checked what happened to his body.
