When being burned by the Illusory Soul Fire, one's soul was directly facing the soul. If one's soul was pure and had no distracting thoughts, they wouldn't feel anything when being burned by the Illusory Soul Fire.
Some people with a mind as firm as steel, as long as they had a firm heart when being burned by the Illusory Soul Fire, they wouldn't be hurt too much.
On the contrary, if one's mind was not firm, and there were too many distracting thoughts, or even negative emotions, the Illusory Soul Fire would ignite these distracting thoughts and negative emotions. That would be a great pain, as if the soul was being burned.
In the future, many people would take the initiative to be burned by the Illusory Soul Fire in order to temper themselves. When some experts chose their disciples, it was also a necessary step for these disciples to accept the test of the Illusory Soul Fire.
However, this kind of training also had a limit. If it was too much, the soul would really be ignited, and at that time, it would be completely over.
Lin Yun originally thought that this kind of thing wouldn't exist in this era. He didn't expect to see it here, and it was even disguised as the Undead Flame.
Feeling the burning of his soul, Lin Yun's face was expressionless. He didn't feel too much pain, and he could even feel some of the impurities in his soul being burned away.
After dying once, transmigrating to the post-apocalyptic era, struggling for many years, witnessing the destruction of the world with his own eyes, and even experiencing the destruction of the world twice in the illusion, Lin Yun's heart had long been tempered like steel. Being burned by the Illusory Soul Fire, it was impossible for him to have too much of a reaction.
On the contrary, the Illusory Soul Fire could purify the soul, making it even purer. How could he miss such a good thing? Lin Yun even dispersed the Soul Defense, allowing the endless Undead Phantoms to pounce on him.
Feeling the pain of his soul being burned, a smile appeared at the corner of Lin Yun's mouth, because he could feel that as his soul was slowly purified, his understanding of many things was rapidly increasing. He even recalled many things he had read in the decaying library, and his understanding of magic kept improving. It felt as if the world he sensed through his soul was slowly becoming clearer.
The others were in a similar situation. Xiuban grimaced in pain, but he wasn't in much pain. The lazy Draconic Beastman was most afraid of Merlin and Syudos. As for the others …
The Draconic Beastman, whose brain was made of muscle, didn't care. Moreover, the fusion of the Three-Headed Golden Dragon's blood, the heart of an Ancient Poison Dragon, the blood of a God, and the illusory Soul Fire didn't focus on killing, how could it injure Xiuban?
The puppet didn't have a soul, so it didn't react. On the side, Anderfa controlled the Ten Thousand Spell, so he controlled the Ten Thousand Spell, and let out a strange laugh.
This kind of old monster had lived for who knew how many years, so how could it care about these Illusory Soul Fires? It was like taking a hot bath for a Magic Tool Incarnation.
As for Reina, she was expressionless, not reacting at all. The Frost Dragon had been guarding her father's corpse for a few hundred years, so her mind was already as cold as ice. She completely ignored these Illusory Soul Fires, and after discovering the benefits of these Illusory Soul Fires, she glanced at Lin Yun and lowered her defenses, willing to let these Illusory Soul Fires burn her soul.
Among the group, only Wagner's expression kept distorting. He kept buffing himself with Soul Defense, but his complexion was becoming paler and paler, and his robe was already drenched in cold sweat.
As they moved forward, the originally thin layer of Illusory Soul Fires under their feet kept increasing, and after a few hundred meters, they covered half the passage.
It was as if they were walking through a waist-deep river, protected by these Illusory Soul Fires, and the power of the flames kept growing stronger and stronger.
Lin Yun's expression was normal, as if he didn't feel anything. The others were more or less the same. Anderfa even came out of the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel and kept swimming in this pale river of flames, his three faces looking as if they had taken a hot bath, both painful and comfortable.
As for Wagner, his complexion was becoming paler and paler, and the light in his eyes was starting to scatter. There were too many distracting thoughts in his mind, and his mind wasn't firm enough. Facing this kind of Illusory Soul Fire, his soul was about to be ignited.
Ahead, more and more Illusory Soul Fires were appearing, and their power was also increasing. If this continued, that guy's soul would truly be ignited.
Lin Yun glanced at Wagner and noticed that Wagner's expression was already starting to slacken.
Lin Yun casually took off a ring from his left hand and threw it at Wagner.
"Put it on."
Wagner's face was filled with pain and despair. His face was distorted, and his robe was soaked in sweat. His hands trembled as he caught the ring, his expression like a traveler dying of thirst in a desert seeing an oasis.
Wagner unhesitantly put the ring on, not even thinking about what it was for, because he knew that if he kept going like this, his soul would be thoroughly ignited.
Sure enough, after putting on the ring, Wagner felt the flames burning his soul dissipate. An invisible force protected his soul, making it no longer feel like his soul was being burned.
Anderfa swam in this pale river of flames, looking at Wagner with a smile that didn't seem like a smile.
Everyone kept moving forward, and sure enough, the flames in front of them were getting higher and higher. It didn't take long for the pale flames to completely cover the passage, and the surrounding illusions thoroughly dissipated.
The illusory Soul Fire's power had already reached its peak. His entire body was enveloped in flames, burning him to the greatest degree.
Lin Yun was somewhat pale, but he resisted the urge to use any defensive measures. This kind of opportunity was very rare. When he woke up, Lin Yun wanted to find that Illusory Soul Fire. That kind of flame would make the connection between the soul and the body even closer. After all, he had been reborn.
And he wasn't the master of this body, so there was a natural difference between his soul and his Life Essence. When advancing to the Heaven Rank, his soul and Life Essence would cross a huge gap, and that small difference would be fatal.
Now, that possible shortcoming had already been thoroughly eliminated, and even his soul had been purified to become even purer and more powerful. His mental power had also rapidly increased. This kind of benefit could only be obtained in one go, and he had to endure it.
He knew too much, had too many secrets in his heart, understood too much, and was destined to have even more thoughts. Therefore, it was inevitable that he would suffer from the scorching heat. If a newborn baby's soul was as pure as a piece of white paper, he wouldn't even feel it here.
Lin Yun was using the Illusory Soul Fires to strengthen himself, and Reina was doing the same. Her Life Essence was improving, but her soul was still that of a Frost Dragon. The improvement of her soul couldn't keep up with the improvement of her body, but this process was rapidly speeding up.
Xiuban's thoughts were simple. He was shouting in pain, but he was full of energy. There was no danger, and there were even some benefits.
Anderfa …
That old monster was already completely ignoring these Illusory Soul Fires.
After putting on the ring, Wagner couldn't sense the Illusory Soul Fires at all.
After walking for who knew how long, Lin Yun took another step and felt that he had walked out of the passage. In front of him was a huge space with totem-like pillars erected on the flat ground. The entire space was covered in runes and patterns.
Wisps of light rapidly flowed through these veined patterns, and those runes were also constantly flashing. In the center, there was a white pillar of light, and inside the pillar of light, there was a bright golden gem floating in the pillar of light, constantly rotating slowly.
As everyone walked out of the passageway filled with Illusory Soul Fires, the runes began to flicker continuously, and the entire base seemed to be trembling.
On the sides of this circular space, closed doors started opening, and a terrifying aura spread from these doors. The footsteps of some puppets could be faintly heard.
Lin Yun took a step forward and flew in front of that pillar of light. He frowned as he looked at the floating golden gem.
"Sure enough …"
This huge circular space was equivalent to the puppet's control center, and that gem was the key to that puppet's control center. Fusing with that gem was equivalent to controlling the entire base, this huge special puppet.
However, the intricate runes and structures on this gem had a special restriction.
Bloodline restriction …
Only Bill George himself, or someone with Bill George's bloodline, could fuse with that gem!
And if anyone else tried to fuse with that gem, the only outcome would be death. If they tried to forcibly control it, the gem would be destroyed, and the entire base would self-destruct.
Seeing this outcome, Lin Yun wasn't surprised. Bill George didn't trust any humans. The only lifeforms he cared about were his own bloodline.
This restriction was within Lin Yun's expectations.
Lin Yun waved his hand at Wagner, telling him to come over.
"We only have one choice now. That gem is the control center of the entire base, the core of the core. If we fuse with that control gem, we'll be able to control the entire base.
"We don't have time to waste, the escape route has already been completely sealed. Since we entered the core control center, the entire base's ultimate defenses have been activated, and all the puppets are rushing over here.
"The puppets' original missions have been thoroughly changed, because if someone invades this place, including the spider puppet we met before, they will activate their first order and recklessly rush over to kill everyone that doesn't belong here.
