"Soul Capture!"
Liu Qianling exclaimed in shock.
Feeling his soul being extracted, Liu Qianling quickly summoned the green ghost from within his body. However, as soon as the green ghost appeared, it too was controlled by the Three Evil Flying Corpsesâ Soul Capturing Eye, with half its body rapidly sucked into it.
This pleasantly surprised Wen Jiu.
Because he sensed the horrifying suppressive power of the Soul Capturing Eye over Yin Soul Ghosts.
However, the appearance of the green ghost also gave Liu Qianling a moment to catch his breath.
Liu Qianling quickly took out a black talisman from his storage bag and activated it the moment he looked back at the Three Evil Flying Corpses.
"Itâs you!"
Liu Qianling exclaimed in shock, and in the next moment, his physical body was engulfed by ghostly energy emanating from the black Yin Talisman. When the ghostly energy re-expanded, Liu Qianlingâs physical body had transformed into a Seventh Realm Yin Soul Ghost.
Liu Qianling was nowhere to be found.
Only a pile of clothes was left behind.
Ghost Puppet Body Transfer Talisman, the words flashed through Wen Jiuâs mind.
This was a genuine Tier Two Lower Grade Yin Talisman.
In moments of life and death crisis, it can swap oneâs soul with the ghost puppetâs body within a five-hundred-mile radius, preserving oneâs life. Although it cannot take external items, it can ignore any arrays or spell restrictions.
Of course, this was not something Wen Jiu knew before, but rather what Liu Qianlingâs soul memory told him.
Though Liu Qianling managed to escape, one soul and three spirits had already entered the Soul Capturing Eye, including many soul memories.
The memory of setting up the Ghost Puppet Body Transfer Talisman happened to be among them, and the location was also in the soul memory.
However, it was over four hundred miles away.
Even if he chased now, Liu Qianling would probably have already fled.
The absence of one soul and three spirits might not kill a Qi Cultivation Perfection cultivator like Liu Qianling.
But even if he could catch up, Wen Jiu didnât bother to chase, after all, Liu Qianlingâs external items and the green ghost were all left behind.
Though the risky pursuit did not kill Liu Qianling, it wasnât a loss.
Moreover, there were many soul memories within the one soul and three spirits, including the content of transactions between the Heaven Left Alliance and Cloud Mist Peak. It turned out the Heaven Left Alliance leader had promised Yanposhan a Tier Two Foundation Establishment Pill strictly controlled by the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks.
A single Tier Two Foundation Establishment Pill can increase the chance of Foundation Establishment by thirty to forty percent, and for those with a Top-Grade Spirit Root, itâs almost a guaranteed Foundation Establishment.
For those with a Top-Grade Single-Attribute Spirit Root, taking a Foundation Establishment Pill can give them a seventy percent chance of Foundation Establishment akin to someone with a Top-Grade Spirit Root.
But most of the spiritual medicine resources for refining Foundation Establishment Pills are tightly controlled by the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks, putting the Three Sects and Six Peaks and the loose cultivators in the same situation, unable to obtain any resources for Foundation Establishment Pills.
Thus, a complete Foundation Establishment Pill is fatally attractive to Yanposhan.
However, the Heaven Left Allianceâs promise to Yanposhan of a Foundation Establishment Pill was not just to kill Ye Chen alone.
It was also for the Celestial Extinction Ruins a year later.
But this part wasnât in his soul memory, not because it wasnât obtained, but because he wasnât qualified to know, though ten to nine it was related to the Heaven Left Alliance leaderâs Blood Evil Foundation Establishment.
"The Three Sects and Six Peaks monopolize spells and cultivation techniques, leaving ordinary loose cultivators and clan cultivators only able to practice ordinary techniques; while the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks control the spiritual medicine resources for Foundation Establishment Pills of the Three Sects and Six Peaks, with only two appointments from so many talents in the Three Sects and Six Peaks." Wen Jiu couldnât help but sigh, each has its own tricks.
Unfortunately.
This world has no antitrust laws.
This monopoly can never be broken unless an unworldly disruptor appears.
Loose cultivators might struggle all their life and still remain loose cultivators.
After lamenting, Wen Jiu absorbed the green ghost and ghost puppet into the Soul Capturing Eye, then collected the storage bag, as the Yin Spirit circled twice in the deep pit tunnel, finding nothing, preparing to leave, but before leaving, adhering to the principle of not wasting, Wen Jiu conveniently absorbed the vitality of over a thousand loose cultivators.
Itâs not that he has completely disregarded human life; itâs because, according to Liu Qianlingâs soul memory descriptions, theyâve already been pierced by ghost chains, their flesh and soul long corroded by the green ghostâs energy.
They are now just medicine.
Human-shaped Evil Yin Spiritual Medicine.
Constantly producing vitality, producing resentment, and all sorts of negative emotions for Liu Qianling, aiding the green ghost while serving Liu Qianlingâs cultivation, nurturing that half-human, half-ghost body.
So even if Wen Jiu let them go, they wouldnât live long; once the green ghost dies, they would perish within months.
Rather than benefiting demon beasts.
Becoming a meal for demon beasts.
Better to nourish his corpse.
"Thank you for your vitality."
"I wish that after you turn into fierce ghosts and evil spirits, you can fare better than loose cultivators."
Leaving behind a blessing, Wen Jiu departed from this pit full of resentment, anger, and other negative emotions.
Without destroying the Concealing Array.
Let it peacefully guard this pit.
Witness the transformation of these thousand loose cultivators into fierce ghosts and evil spirits.
...
Black Moon City.
After a day, Ye Chen had recovered five to six tenths under the Tier One Top Grade Healing Elixir given by Eastern Celestial City.
The remaining injuries need gradual recuperation.
But itâs sufficient for Ye Chen to stand and leave Black Moon City himself.
Meanwhile, over half of the Heaven Left Allianceâs cultivators were killed by Cloud Mist Peak, while all the Guardians of the Ming Lineage tragically perished. And those two main peak traitors were immediately executed by Eastern Celestial City without hesitation and had their souls searched.
As expected, all the previous leaks were from these two, and the reason they could previously avoid the Truth Mirrorâs scrutiny was due to Yin Yang Dustâs assistance. However, how it was used, neither had relevant memories.
But it was certain it wasnât an ordinary spell because the Truth Mirror is a complete Tier Two Lower Grade Treasure.
"Again Yin Yang Dust."
Eastern Celestial City bore a grave expression.
"The threat of this Yin Yang Dust is no less than the Heaven Left Alliance Leader."
Though this battle was a great victory for Deadman Peak, feeling the strength of Yin Yang Dust multiple times left Eastern Celestial City unable to truly rejoice.
Moreover, with Cloud Mist Peak having secret connections with the Heaven and Earth Alliance, the situation for Deadman Peak became even more precarious.
Although he used news about the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaksâ late-stage Foundation Establishment Elders personally bringing disciples to the Celestial Extinction Secret Realm to intimidate Yanposhan, Yanposhan would not give up cooperation with the Heaven Left Alliance for Foundation Establishment.
A year later, at the Celestial Extinction Ruins, Yanposhan would surely seize the chance for revenge!
Meanwhile, Ye Chen also learned of his state after fainting. Upon realizing someone was soul-searched saving him, Ye Chenâs face turned grim, "Back then, Gong Chiâs soul was also taken, it matches exactly with this method."
Eastern Celestial City was taken aback, knowing exactly what Ye Chen meant.
In other words, this person was likely from the Deadman Peak!
After all, the Soul Capturing Technique is not a Qi Cultivation Technique.
You wouldnât find a second practitioner in the entire Far West.
"People from Feixian Peak?" Ye Chen pondered deeply, finding it increasingly plausible.
Eastern Celestial City raised a hand, gesturing Ye Chen to cease speaking further, "Itâs a pity, we let that traitor Liu Qianling escape again. Having fled this time, he probably wonât resurface until the Celestial Extinction Ruins open, we can only attempt to kill him there."
At this point, Eastern Celestial City thought of something, "Junior brother, you should not go to the Celestial Extinction Ruins again."
Using the Seven Divine Seals one more time, Ye Chen would certainly meet his end.
He didnât want to bury his junior brother with his own hands.
"If Master doesnât return, the Celestial Extinction Ruins will be our only opportunity; the fact that the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaksâ late-stage Foundation Establishment Elder personally brings his disciples proves that a Foundation Establishment opportunity will surely appear this time."
Ye Chen communicated via Divine Sense.
Eastern Celestial City fell silent, aware that Ye Chen was right, yet unwilling to personally bury his junior brother, responded via Divine Sense, "Then continue searching, if that Daoist friend is willing to meet us, he will certainly reveal himself, if he can aid Deadman Peak during the Celestial Extinction Ruins..."
Ye Chen nodded.
And just then, Yanposhanâs cold voice resonated, "You have one day to leave Cloud Mist Peak!"
Eastern Celestial City responded via Divine Sense, "Elder Yan, though Iâm not sure what the Heaven Left Alliance has promised you, anything the Heaven Left Alliance gives you must come from the Three Life Gates... whatever you take, youâd better think carefully."
After communicating via Divine Sense, Eastern Celestial City respectfully clasped his fists and left.
No further words were exchanged.
Yanposhan snorted disdainfully, steered his flying ship, and departed alone, though Eastern Celestial Cityâs words lingered in his mind.
But after several breaths, Yanposhanâs gaze gradually firmed.
Whatever the Three Life Gates.
Whatever the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks.
He only seeks Foundation Establishment!
"Rather than waiting for death, itâs better to seize the chance with all my might."
