268: Chapter 225 268: Chapter 225 Jiang Tang encased the souls inside the two stone lions with golden light rings and collected them all into the Hell Palace.
This action infuriated the two remnants of souls that were manipulating the souls within the eyes of the stone lions.
They were from the same person, with thoughts like twins, identical ideas, attacking Jiang Tangâs avatar with powerful attacks at the same time, with even stronger Soul Capturing Spells.
Different spells shone from the eyes of the two stone lions, all focusing on attacking Jiang Tangâs soul.
Jiang Tangâs soul was much stronger than others, with mid-stage Ocean Wheel cultivation, his Sea of Consciousness Clone had the spiritual power of mid-stage Spirit Mansion.
After ten thousand years of continuously absorbing soul power, the remnants of the Supreme Immortalsâ souls had grown very strong.
The two strands of remnants were as powerful as two mid-stage Spirit Mansion cultivators.
Alone, they were Condensing Form, but the combined attack of both souls was stronger than Soul Refinement, like a teamâs combined strength becoming more powerful.
The great beingâs remnants had become two souls with simultaneous thoughts, capable of possessing the bodies of two people.
They had attacked ten people earlier, aiming to choose from among them those who were the most compatible.
Jiang Tang was one of them.
Seeing his abilities were stronger than the others and that he was male, the great being, who had a stronger male mindset, wanted to reincarnate as a man.
Perhaps after becoming an Immortal, she felt that women suffered more disadvantages than men, and if she were to become a person again, she did not want to be a woman but rather a man.
However, she was somewhat reluctant to let go of the beautiful bodies of these women.
Their beauty, too, made the beauty-loving Immortal want to become one of them.
Among these people were precisely two males, both unique beauties.
By attacking ten people at once, they spread her focus, allowing Jiang Tang to quickly break free from their control.
They hadnât expected this man to be so strong.
Distracted for just a moment, he had used his golden abilities to collect all the souls.
These souls were their pawns, intended for use after possession, as tools to become stronger in the cultivation of the Mortal Realm.
Yet they hadnât expected their angry attacks to be absorbed by Jiang Tang, making them feel as if they were punching into cotton.
Furthermore, they felt a sensation of their abilities being drained, as he continued to absorb their power, weakening them gradually.
The two remnants in the stone lions focused their intense attacks on Jiang Tang, relaxing their Soul Capturing hold on the other nine men and women.
The nine men and women, having fallen into Illusion Realms due to the Soul Capturing Spell, began to emerge from the painful illusions, their purplish faces slowly returning to a healthy glow.
They sat huddled on the ground, unconsciously healing and meditating on their own.
âYun Duoduo, whatâs happening?â
Patriarch Yun, along with a group of others, came out of the front gate to see ten unfamiliar men and women beside Yun Duoduo.
Only one man was standing, his eyes fixed on the eyes of the stone lions.
The other nine were sitting on the ground cultivating, weakened from the attack.
The standing man seemed unfazed by the Soul Capturing Spell of the stone lions, his complexion fair and rosy, with skin even better than a womanâs.
The Family Head and the others could tell at a glance that this man was in control of the stone lions.
They were shocked; Illusion Techniques were their clanâs lifeblood, exclusive skills relied upon for survival.
Over ten thousand years, several outsiders had been attacked by the stone lions and failed to escape.
Even if someone was saved, their soul was gone, and they became an imbecile.
The Yun Family believed the stone lions to be guardians created by their powerful ancestors a ten thousand years ago.
Puppets created by powerful Immortals often involved soulsâeither of Demonic Beasts or human ghosts.
They believed the puppet souls of the stone lions to be immensely strong, definitely tied to a high-cultivation being.
Not harming their clan members surely meant their ancestor had used some spell to control the puppets.
But no one knew the stone lions were bound to the remnants of one person, split into two strands.
Nor did they know that today, after ten thousand years, the powerful Immortalâs soul possession had failed.
âFamily Head, this is Jiang Tang.
I was in the middle of a visit from Jiang Tang to our clan, and those few are from other families.
I was just telling them about the stone lions when they were struck,â Yun Duoduo briefly explained to the Family Head, and the gate guards also reported to him.
Yun Duoduo had also given the background of each individual.
Patriarch Yun had already received the information she sent, and the highest authority was awaiting inside.
They hadnât expected these guests to fall victim to the Soul Capturing Spell at the doorstep.
âItâs fortunate they are all fine, otherwise weâd have a hard time accounting for it, facing confrontation from so many familiesâŠâ
Patriarch Yun, observing Jiang Tang, sensed that this young man was indeed too powerful.
Being able to refine top-grade pills was already a talent.
Yet unexpectedly, his cultivation was so high, and he had such strong resistance, able to defend against and counter the stone lionsâ Soul Capturing Spell.
It seemed the stone lions could do nothing against Jiang Tang, now thoroughly defeated and being subdued.
âFamily Head, Jiang Tang wonât be in trouble, will he?â Yun Duoduo was actually a bit worried about Jiang Tang and didnât consider as much as the Family Head.
âThis young man has such strong soul power, the stone lionsâ Soul Capturing Spell is useless against him.â
The Patriarch Yun didnât know that while they had been coming out, Jiang Tang had slowly absorbed all the soul power of the two strands of Supreme Immortals in the stone lions.
The two stone lions would henceforth only have two dazed souls, posing no threat to people and certainly unable to possess anyone.
