In fact, Lin Yun knew that with his current spiritual sense, it was impossible for him to absorb the soul of this enemy with the Soul Devouring Art.
He did not use the Soul Absorption Technique to absorb the enemy's soul, but to prove to the enemy that he was an Archean Soul Elder. This way, they would not suspect his true identity as the Demon God Lin Yun.
After tidying up his appearance, Lin Yun used his consciousness to inform Xiahou Xuan that she could come in.
Xiahou Xuan then hurriedly brought the unconscious Qing Yi to Lin Yun's side.
Xiahou Xuan was greatly shocked when she saw that the green-robed youth was already dead. At the same time, she asked Lin Yun with incomparable admiration, "Brother Jiang Yun … did you kill him?"
Lin Yun shook his head and explained, "He was only a human puppet. My main body was only controlling him from afar. I only severed the spiritual connection between him and my main body."
At this point, Lin Yun also came to Qing Yi's side.
Lin Yun examined Qing Yi's injuries. The sword had just pierced through Qing Yi's heart. If not for the grade-10 pill that kept him alive, his soul would have long since passed away.
"Brother Jiang Yun, you have to save Qing Yi," Xiahou Xuan said worriedly.
Lin Yun did not say anything else. He only placed his right hand on the wound on Qing Yi's chest and slowly injected the power of the True Dragon into it.
Lin Yun also deliberately dispersed all the energy undulations so that Xiahou Xuan could not see anything wrong.
After a while, Lin Yun withdrew his hand and said coldly, "His life is no longer in danger."
Xiahou Xuan breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Lin Yun's words. She then recalled Lin Yun's words and asked in confusion, "Brother Jiang Yun, did you just say that he was only a human puppet?"
Lin Yun nodded and explained, "This person is indeed a level-five Wu Huang. However, his soul has long since dissipated. An expert with a powerful soul must have used a soul technique called 'Soul Control'."
"Soul Control? What kind of martial technique or cultivation method is that? Why haven't I heard of it before? "Xiahou Xuan asked three questions in a row.
However, she had indeed never heard of such a soul technique before.
"Soul power has always been mysterious. It's normal that you don't know." Lin Yun clasped his hands behind his back and said in an instructive tone, "Soul Control is a soul technique that can remotely control another person's body.
"A Spell Caster first completely obliterates a person's soul, turning the person's body into a walking corpse."
"Then, a strand of their own soul is inserted into the body.
"Once successful, the caster can use the Soul Control Technique to control the body from hundreds of thousands of miles away, or even millions of miles away, using their powerful soul power and the strand of their soul to sense it.
"The controlled body can use the Immortal Qi transmitted by the caster over a long distance, as well as the abilities of the caster's Martial Soul."
At that moment, Qing Yi woke up and happened to hear Lin Yun's words. She could not help but ask, "Does this mean that even an ordinary person without any Immortal Qi can use the god-level martial technique just now by relying on this soul technique?"
Lin Yun nodded. After a moment of thought, he said, "I'm guessing that the caster's realm is at least above Wu Zun's."
This was because Lin Yun did not think that Wu Sheng could have such soul power and use Soul Control.
Xiahou Xuan and Qing Yi were both speechless. They did not know what to say.
Only now did they realize what kind of terrifying opponent they had just faced!
Lin Yun also knew that he had already replaced Jiang Yun's identity, so this person would definitely come looking for him in the future.
As for what this person's goal was, Lin Yun did not know.
After all, in Jiang Yun's memory, he did not find any clues related to this matter.
However, this was not what Lin Yun was thinking about at the moment. Soon, he threw all these thoughts to the back of his mind.
"Now that we have the things and the people who should be killed have been killed, let's go to the central hall," Lin Yun said.
Qing Yi nodded and said with a smile, "Let's go, let's go! If we're any slower, we might encounter some monsters again. "
The experience of this elimination round was too thrilling, and it made Qing Yi deeply doubt herself.
Not long after the three of them left, the chief examiner in charge of this elimination round came to the room with a few examiners.
The chief examiner looked around and looked at the corpses on the ground. Finally, his eyes fell on the youth in green.
Immediately after, he said to the examiner beside him, "Find this person's information."
After a while, the examiner also found the youth's information in a thick book.
"Qin Clan Alliance Martial House core disciple, Qin Pan, level five Wu Huang, age 18, no stains."
Hearing the examiner's words, the rest of the examiners all showed doubtful expressions.
The chief examiner was very sure that the little red dot that had been killing people was this youth in green.
"Strange, how did he die here …" The chief examiner was also very confused. Along the way, they had also found people who had been killed by the youth in green. Among them, there were some inner disciples of the General Union, and some of them had even reached the peak of level six, Wu Huang.
A person who could kill a peak level six Wu Huang had actually died here.
"Could it be that there is another disciple who is stronger than him?"
At the same time, Lin Yun also brought Xiahou Xuan and Qingyi to the center of the giant's palace, the main hall.
At this moment, the main hall was already filled with people. These people were the teams that had already collected the keys and locks and qualified for the next round. Lin Yun and the other two were naturally one of these teams.
In the main hall, there were a few examiners who had reached the half-step Wu Sheng Realm. These examiners' role was to protect the safety of the disciples that had already advanced.
As long as they collected the two task items and entered the main hall, they would be considered to have passed.
Killing was strictly prohibited in the main hall. No matter how strong you were, you were not allowed to snatch the keys in the main hall.
Lin Yun and the other two found a corner and closed their eyes to rest.
Time passed by quietly. In the blink of an eye, 24 hours had passed since the start of the elimination round.
And this time, the elimination round was finally over.
Compared to 24 hours ago, the number of disciples who had safely entered the main hall was clearly less than half, or even more.
Furthermore, almost every single one of them had injuries of varying degrees. Even those who weren't injured were exhausted at the moment.
Of course, there was an exception among this group of people, and that was Lin Yun.
Everyone was talking animatedly, discussing the process of this elimination round and reminiscing about this thrilling elimination round.
Cough, cough, cough! Not long after, the examiner of this elimination round appeared in front of everyone and began to announce the final results of this elimination round.
"This time, there are a total of 502 participants in this elimination round."
"After 24 hours of elimination, the number of people who passed is a total of 168!"
When they heard the examiner's announcement of this round's results, many disciples of the General Alliance revealed surprised expressions.
"That's strange. Why are there so few people who passed this round?"
"That's not right. In the past, even the lowest number of people passed was around 200. Why are there only a little over 100 people this round?"
"What's going on?"
Some of the disciples were confused. They didn't know why there were so few people who passed this round.
Only the examiners and Lin Yun knew the reason. The intervention of the blue-robed youth was the main reason for the drastic drop in the advancement rate.
Just the number of disciples he had killed alone had already reached dozens of people.
Naturally, the examiner wouldn't explain this to the disciples. He continued, "The official competition of the General Alliance Conference will be held in seven days."
"You disciples who passed, go back and rest. Be in your best condition for the conference!"
The elimination round also came to an end with the final announcement of the chief examiner.
All the disciples returned their mission items and left the giant's palace in high spirits.
Lin Yun and the other two returned to the residence that the Sacred Alliance had prepared for the Xiahou Martial House.
"Father! We passed! "Xiahou Xuan exclaimed happily when she saw her father.
"Did you all pass safely? That's wonderful! That's wonderful! The heavens have eyes! The Xiahou Martial House can finally hold our heads high with the three of you! " Xiahou Yang beamed with joy when he heard the good news. The gloom of his defeat ten years ago dissipated.
After recovering from his excitement, Xiahou Yang suddenly recalled something, and asked the three of them, "How was it? Did Fan Tong's three disciples cause any trouble for you?"
Lin Yun kept silent and sipped his tea.
"They're all dead," Qing Yi said nonchalantly, not forgetting to glance at Lin Yun.
Upon hearing Qing Yi's words, Xiahou Yang spat out the tea in his mouth. With a look of astonishment, he asked in disbelief, "They're all dead? You killed them? "
Qing Yi pursed her lips in the direction of Lin Yun.
Xiahou Yang smiled wryly, but didn't say anything. The death rate in the elimination round was always high. It was normal to die because one's skill was inferior.
He hadn't expected Lin Yun to kill them all.
"Father, let me tell you, big brother Jiang Yun is amazing. He killed those three, three Sword Faction disciples, and three Array Faction disciples, all by himself." Xiahou Xuan was announcing Lin Yun's accomplishments.
Lin Yun added, "He only killed two Sword Faction disciples."
Lin Yun didn't want to be the scapegoat for killing so many people.
