Chapter 2706: Chapter 2704: Kiss of the Mirage
Ethan Smith tested it, and it was indeed as the Mirage described.
The entire Spatial Transfer Array’s aura was completely sealed, and no matter how he tried, there was no sign of activation.
The pressure within Ethan Smith’s Divine Soul intensified once again as time passed.
At this moment, Ethan was already feeling extremely strained, and it was likely that soon his Divine Soul would be drawn into The Nineteenth Prison as the Mirage said.
He didn’t dare to trust the woman in front of him, but at this moment, it seemed he had no other choice.
“Explain to me in detail about The Nineteenth Prison. If I were to enter it, what would I need to do?”
“The Nineteenth Prison exists in the deepest part of the Divine Soul’s consciousness. Once you sink into that place, you become a living dead forever, which is why it’s called the realm of yin and yang. Almost every cultivator encounters fleeting illusions there during tribulation, memories of that Divine Soul region,” the Mirage explained after pausing to gather her thoughts.
“It’s a taboo in this realm, rarely spoken about, and no one has comprehensively explored it. Imagine, The Nineteenth Prison is connected to everyone’s Sea of Consciousness. No one knows how it came to be, or its purpose and meaning. That someone could harness part of its power this time indicates unfathomable intentions,” she said.
Ethan was somewhat shocked, having never conceived that The Nineteenth Prison existed within his own Sea of Consciousness.
Moreover, the terrifying Nightmare and inner demons one encounters during tribulation do accentuate the nine deaths experience, leading one’s Divine Soul into The Nineteenth Prison.
“Then why don’t you enter yourself? If you can get in, with your power you should easily break the invocation of The Nineteenth Prison, right?”
Ethan squinted his eyes, directly asking the critical question.
“My Divine Soul is born of this Holy Kingdom. Once I enter, I will be immediately detected by the master of the formation. Only a vulnerable Divine Soul like yours would not arouse his vigilance,” the Mirage said earnestly.
…
Though her statements were truthful, she could have been more tactful.
Ethan felt his self-esteem slightly wounded; he had been quite proud of his consecutive breakthroughs from the True Spirit Realm to the Path Realm, yet he hadn’t expected to encounter an expert of this caliber right after entering the Core Domain.
“Then what do I need to do upon entering it? Surely you don’t expect me to risk my life against him?” Ethan asked carefully, not daring to overlook any detail.
“The being capable of such a formation is not something you can contend against, even if he doesn’t absorb its power. However, your Divine Soul is so peculiar that it can resist the force of The Nineteenth Prison. Almost no one below the Holy Spirit can withstand such a force. Once within The Nineteenth Prison, you forget everything and become as a puppet,” the Mirage observed Ethan, seemingly wanting to see through her.
“I need you to enter it, draw a Trilight Talisman with your Divine Soul Power, and transmit the Path Realm power of the Path Profound Holy Kingdom inside. The many Divine Souls in The Nineteenth Prison will then awaken, and the Great Array will break on its own!”
Ethan roughly understood the Mirage’s idea. The Nineteenth Prison was essentially a world within a Dreamscape, and the trapped Divine Souls had wholly forgotten they were inside a Mirage.
Once the scenes within The Nineteenth Prison deteriorate, the Divine Souls therein will naturally awaken and return to their bodies.
By then, the schemer behind it would be unable to continue consuming the power inside.
“But I’ve never entered it myself; I don’t know what you will encounter once inside. You might end up like those others, unable to ever return,” the Mirage earnestly told Ethan.
Ethan felt a sickly sweetness in his chest, as if his Divine Soul had been heavily gnawed.
The power of summoning from The Nineteenth Prison again pressed on his Divine Soul.
The longer it took, the stronger this summoning power grew.
Ethan sighed lightly. It seemed he had no choice.
In this already doomed situation, it might be better to enter and perhaps disrupt The Nineteenth Prison, securing a slim chance of survival.
“Last question, what can your favor do for me?” Ethan asked, eyeing the woman.
“In this Holy Kingdom, I can save your life, or if you wish to ascend to the Saintly Rank, I will fully support you. However, I can’t guarantee the Saintly Rank, as there are a few individuals I cannot discern,” the Mirage said after lightly touching her forehead, pondering.
Ethan drew a deep breath. The position of Holy Lord!
Her words reflected her terrifying strength and showed that the matter was not as simple as he had imagined.
“Teach me the Trilight Talisman, then!” Ethan inhaled deeply.
The young girl pointed out with a finger, and a cool sensation instantly rippled across Ethan’s forehead.
Her figure immediately immersed in Ethan’s Sea of Knowledge. Using her finger as a brush, she began to draw.
The talisman revealed rough outlines along with corresponding figures.
This was the Heavenly Astral Big Dipper corresponding to the Path Profound Holy Kingdom. These three were the three Holy Lords of this Holy Kingdom. Remember! There is no time! I sense the Divine thought growing stronger, let me show you once!
The stars and the three Holy Lords were merely the most basic contours.
Once the Heavenly Astral Big Dipper was drawn, Ethan felt as if he was amidst the Starry Sky, the Starforce seemingly pulling him towards the talisman depicted in the Void.
The three Holy Lords exuded an air of dominance over the world, the feeling akin to facing the most terrifying Fierce Beast.
Especially within this Holy Kingdom, the divine aura emitted by the three was profoundly powerful.
Ethan used the Nine Heavens Condensing Pupil to memorize each stroke carefully.
“Remember, the Dao charm I’ve demonstrated — the Trilight Talisman — is the most potent talisman of this Holy Kingdom. When the time comes, if you can replicate even a fraction of its divine aura, it will inevitably awaken many Souls to return, rendering the mastermind’s arrangements useless!”
The voice in the Sea of Consciousness grew anxious, the Mirage seemingly noticed something new.
“Wait, I haven’t memorized it yet! If I can’t draw it, won’t there be trouble!” Ethan exclaimed urgently. Taoist talisman crafting was incredibly challenging, particularly such powerful talismans.
At least demonstrate it a few more times!

“Recall carefully the Dao charm when I was drawing it; there’s no time left!”
The Mirage’s anxiety was unmistakable.
She suddenly leaned forward, pressing her lips directly against Ethan’s.
Buzz!
A cool sensation resounded throughout Ethan’s body, the sensation of a Divine Soul kiss magnified a hundredfold.
