The Emotion Severing Divine Dao had disappeared from the Realm of the Gods for more than a hundred God Epochs.
Even if a True God had an eternal lifespan, more than a hundred God Epochs was still too long …
Although the True Gods in the canyon knew about the existence of the Emotion Severing Divine Dao and knew that it was a Forbidden Dao, they had never seen it before.
In recent years, the only time the Emotion Severing Divine Dao was when Chen Huang Yijian escaped into the Abyss Devil Domain.
However, the storm that Chen Huang Yijian caused back then wasn't too big, so many True Gods knew about it. Moreover, after Chen Huang Yijian escaped into the Abyss Devil Domain, he disappeared without a trace. No one had seen him again, so this matter slowly faded away.
Luo Zheng relied on the Divine Creation Technique to greatly increase his soul force, and relied on the Emotion Severing Divine Dao to erupt with such a powerful soul force. Those True Gods who couldn't see his origin were all stunned!
Previously, these True Gods were worried that even if they escaped to the Goddess statue, these Soul Reaping Yin Demons would eventually catch up.
Those True Gods who had grasped the Lightning Divine Dao were unable to kill these Soul Reaping Yin Demons. Perhaps, except for the upper True Gods, everyone else would be annihilated …
They never thought that this brat would rely on himself to chase a large group of Soul Reaping Yin Demons all over the canyon!
"Is this guy really just a lower True God?" A middle True God stared blankly at Luo Zheng who was madly running through the canyon. Under the perception of this middle True God, any Soul Reaping Yin Demon caught by Luo Zheng was quickly killed. This guy was simply unstoppable!
Leng Lin Yue looked at Luo Zheng in the distance, his eyelids constantly twitching. Even if he didn't want to admit it, this guy was much stronger than he had imagined …
After Mu Ning's soul returned to her body, she quickly climbed up the huge tree stump. Seeing Luo Zheng so fiercely chasing after the Soul Reaping Yin Demons, she sighed in her heart. This guy … even his soul was much stronger than she had imagined.
There was no emotion in Luo Zheng's eyes. Under the flickering golden light, those small soul arrows turned into a rain of arrows and shot out.
The Soul-reaping Yin Devil kept crawling on the ground, but in the end, it was smashed into pieces by Luo Zheng, turning into streams of pure soul power, which continuously strengthened Luo Zheng's soul.
Although many True Gods on the tree stump released lightning to kill some lone Soul Reaping Yin Demons, most of them were killed by Luo Zheng.
Because of this, Luo Zheng was able to absorb a massive amount of soul force. His soul was rapidly growing!
After killing the last Soul Hooking Yin Demon, Luo Zheng returned to the bottom of the statue.
The Real Gods who had escaped from the tree stumps then jumped down one by one. Many Real Gods still had lingering fears.
Not far away, there were a few True Gods who were either standing or lying motionless.
The souls of these True Gods had already been hollowed out. They stood motionless like statues. Because their souls had just been extracted, the life force in their bodies hadn't been cut off. They had just turned into walking corpses and had lost their consciousness. It was the same as dying.
"Second Brother!" A True God with a face full of grief called out as he held onto a statue.
Many True Gods came from the same rich and powerful family. They were all blood-related brothers. Seeing this scene, they were naturally very sad.
Zhan Ming shook his head and sighed. "Send these corpses out of the Star Door …"
"These aren't corpses!" A True God retorted.
Zhan Ming shrugged his shoulders. In fact, to determine whether a True God had died or not, the most important thing was whether their soul had been destroyed. Even if their physical body was destroyed, their soul would be perfectly preserved. There would be a chance for them to make a comeback. If their soul dissipated, then there was no saving them.
The True Gods cleaned up the scene and sent the True God corpses out of the Star Door.
The canyon was very quiet. Most of the True Gods maintained their silence.
The True Gods didn't gain any substantial benefits from defending against the Soul Hooking Yin Demons. They didn't even get a single Shenwu coin. The only ones who benefited were the True Gods who had killed the Soul Hooking Yin Demons. Their soul strength had increased greatly!
Among them, the one who benefited the most was Luo Zheng.
He had single-handedly killed more than three-quarters of the Soul Hooking Yin Demons and continuously absorbed the pure and precious soul energy. His soul strength had increased greatly!
The Evil Old Man in his mind stared blankly at Luo Zheng's soul.
Back when the Evil Old Man's physical body had perished, he had seen Luo Zheng use those soul arrows to tear apart Yin Yuanzi's soul.
At that time, Luo Zheng was merely a Proof of Divinity martial artist, but he was able to shatter the soul of an intermediate True God!
Now that Luo Zheng had absorbed so much soul energy, Luo Zheng's soul was even more full and powerful. The surface of his soul had a faint glassy glow. Even though Luo Zheng didn't release any soul suppression, the aura that was faintly exuded from his soul gave the Evil Old Man a formless pressure.
"Luo Zheng, your soul feels like it's getting closer to perfection. Are you about to become a Sun God?" the Evil Old Man couldn't help but ask.
"Sun God?" Luo Zheng replied.
The Evil Old Man nodded. "The soul of a Perfected True God is called the Sun God."
If a True God wanted to become a Perfected True God, they had to master a perfected divine ability of a Divine Dao. Even if they became a Perfected True God, the seventh stage divine ability of each Divine Dao was relatively powerful. Their combat power would be a level higher than that of an upper-level True God!
However, such a Perfected True God would still have some shortcomings — the soul and the physical body.
Some True Gods, after reaching perfection, would think of ways to make up for these two shortcomings. Cultivating nine stars of the Spiritual Pedestal Tier in the physical body would make the physical body perfect, and cultivating the soul to become a Sun God would make the soul perfect!
"It's said that after cultivating the Sun God, the soul would turn from Yin to Yang. It's like a reborn body that doesn't fear lightning or any evil-warding techniques," the Evil Old Man added.
Even if the soul of a True God still belonged to the category of "Yin God," it was essentially the same as those evil spirits and resentful spirits. They were all Yin Gods, and the soul residing in the mind was relatively weak. If lightning struck the mind, the soul would still be severely damaged.
Other than that, there were also some purifying Divine Abilities that could purify the soul.
However, once the soul became a Sun God, the soul would undergo a qualitative change. Just like the Evil Old Man said, the soul that stepped into the Sun Soul Tier was like a reborn body. It wouldn't be so afraid of the power of lightning. After the soul left the body, it could even be seen with the naked eye.
"So that's how it is." Luo Zheng nodded.
After absorbing the soul power, he indeed felt an unprecedented sense of fullness in his soul. The feeling of emptiness in his soul gradually dissipated as if his soul had turned into a substantial existence.
If he really cultivated to the Sun God Tier, his soul could really turn into a substantial body. How would that feel? Wouldn't the soul pressure unleashed by using a Sun God Tier soul to activate the Emotion Severing Divine Path be even more powerful?
Thinking of this, Luo Zheng actually felt some regret. It was a pity that he'd already killed all the Soul-Reaping Yin Demons. Wouldn't it be great if another wave came?
"Hong long long …"
At this moment, the canyon began to shake again. The sixth wave of monsters was attacking.
At the same time, the True Gods who'd remained silent also became restless.
"I'm not going to defend this wave!"
"Even if there's a treasure of faith, I don't want it. If I continue to drag this out, I'm purely seeking death …"
"If everyone still wants to defend to the death, please forgive me for not accompanying you!"
Those Soul-Reaping Yin Demons had taken the lives of dozens of True Gods, but the surviving True Gods had gained nothing. It was inevitable that they would want to retreat.
These True Gods left through the Star Gate one after another in order to save their lives.
In the blink of an eye, more than half of the three hundred True Gods present had left. Only seventy or eighty True Gods remained under the statue of the Goddess …
"Are we still defending?" Dongfang Ning asked lightly.
Zhan Ming looked at the pass at the end of the canyon with a wry smile on his face. "With so few of us, we can't defend even if we want to. What's more, those things are really not something we can fight against …"
The True Gods followed Zhan Ming's gaze and looked over. From the passes in all directions, huge golden tortoises slowly crawled out.
Their thick limbs stepped on the ground, leaving pits. They crawled very slowly, but there were many of them.
"Black Armor Golden Tortoise." Dongfang Ning shook his head expressionlessly. "A fourth-level monster in Buzhou Spirit Mountain. This thing can almost reflect an attack. It's really not something we can deal with."
"Let's go." Mystic Moon Xiao Lou said lightly. Since these monsters in front of them were far from what they could deal with, leaving as soon as possible was the right choice.
Since these Upper True Gods had already made their choice, Han Jia, Mu Jia, and some True Gods who were watching from the sidelines no longer hesitated.
Zhan Ming's face showed regret. He could only shake his head and lead the way into the Star Gate.
However, at this moment, the light in the center of the Star Gate rippled slightly.
