Chu Mu sensed an anomaly in the Second Soul Contract when he was in Xiangrong City, but last time it was merely a vague mental wave that came through, which made it impossible for Chu Mu to further investigate.
This time, however, Chu Mu could distinctly feel the prohibition of the Second Soul Contract had been lifted. If Chu Mu had thought it resembled a deep pool when he first probed with his Soul Sense, it now felt to him like an immense black abyss where his Soul Sense couldn't even probe the bottom. The more he explored downward, the more he sank, to the extent that he couldn't even retract it.
Chu Mu's heart also trembled inexplicably; he realized the Second Soul Contract was definitely not simple, yet he hadn't anticipated it would be a creature that made even his half-demonized self sense extreme danger!
Chu Mu still didn't know what it was, but he could feel that the soul from his First Soul Contract was using some power to awaken the soul in the Second Soul Contract.
