The Soul Gathering Pearl was the Demon Crystal of the Soul Devouring Beast, the strangest beast in this world. The Soul Devouring Beast was born with the supernatural ability to swallow souls. Chu Bai's Demon Crystal had inherited this ability perfectly.
As long as it was a soul, it would have its weakness. Once the soul left the body, it would become feeble. Since the God Soul was unpredictable and fast, it was hard to capture it. As long as the warrior couldn't restrain it at the beginning, it would be hard to kill it.
The special feature of the Soul Gathering Pearl was that when it sensed the aura of the soul, it would immediately release a fierce suction force. In just a blink of an eye, the soul of a creature couldn't escape.
This toy was created to deal with the soul.
As long as the creature didn't leave the body, the effect of this item wasn't big. It could even be destroyed easily. However, once the soul didn't have a body to rely on, it would be exposed in the world, becoming the pearl's prey.
Chu Bai Qing's God Soul turned into a mass of gray, murky air, entering the Soul Gathering Pearl. His God Soul used to be full of wisdom, but now it had turned into gray lines. The will and memories left in it were gradually dispelled.
If a warrior's soul wanted to be pure enough to be absorbed, he had to clear all the soul seals, memories, and even the joys and sorrows of life.
Only then could the soul be clean and could be absorbed directly.
However, the reason why a person's soul could be considered to be alive and exist was because that soul didn't just contain soul energy, it also contained a lifetime's comprehension, memories, and traces of life. When these were cleared, that person's Source of Life would also disappear.
It meant that the God Soul had perished.
In other words, Chu Bai Qing was done. The soul seal could never be gathered again.
Holding the Soul Gathering Pearl, Shi Yan's face beamed a satisfied smile. He gazed at the black pearl for a while, releasing his Soul Consciousness to sense. Then, he retrieved the pearl.
Chu Bai Qing was a True God Realm warrior, and his soul was at the God Soul level. If the Soul Gathering Pearl wanted to purify his God Soul, it needed a long time. Shi Yan understood this.
Ning Du Quan, Chu Bai Qing, and the old woman were killed as fast as lightning. The bottom of the lake fell into silence again.
Yang Tian Emperor, Di Shan, War Devil, and Li Zheng Rong flew back from not far from him. They stopped by him, their faces excited and smiling.
"I didn't expect it to be so easy. Shi Yan, what did you use? You can even collect the divine soul of a True God Realm expert?" Li Zheng Rong calmed down, his chubby face beaming a warm smile. "You're not an ordinary man indeed. Every time I meet you, I find that I can't see through you."
"The Demonic Crystal of the Soul Devouring Beast, the Soul Gathering Pearl, specifically targeting the soul." Shi Yan smiled lightly.
"Soul Gathering Pearl!" Li Zheng Rong was frightened, his face changing. "That Soul Devouring Beast is the evilest demonic beast in this world. I can't believe you got its demon crystal. I'm so jealous." He knew the secret of the Soul Devouring Beast. This was a demonic beast that relied on devouring the souls of all living beings to gradually grow. It was extremely terrifying.
"I thought you would use the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame," Ye Zhang Feng grinned brightly. "You do have many tricks. Awesome!"
He had the Purgatory True Flame in his body. The heaven flames could vaguely sense each other. He had a keen understanding of the heaven flames on Shi Yan's body, and also the features of the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame. That's why he wasn't surprised when Shi Yan told him that he had a way to deal with Chu Bai Qing's God Soul.
Shi Yan smiled, but didn't explain. After the battle with the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame, the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame had been dormant, as if it was undergoing the transformation of its life form. From the connection of Shi Yan's host soul, it couldn't be done that easily.
Even if the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame could be used, he wouldn't take it out. Once Chu Bai Qing's God Soul was purified by the Soul Gathering Pearl, it would become a pure soul that could be absorbed. How could he waste such a good thing?
While Shi Yan was talking to Li Zheng Rong and Ye Chang Feng, Fiery Dragon and Blood-maned were talking to each other not far from them. After they had joined hands to kill Chu Bai Qing, they stayed quiet for a while. Then, they started to mock each other.
The reason why Fiery Dragon and Blood-maned had a grudge against each other was that Fiery Dragon used to be bullied by Blood-maned when his realm was low.
Blood-maned wanted to recruit Fiery Dragon and make him his subordinate, but Fiery Dragon refused. Blood-maned thought that Fiery Dragon didn't know how to appreciate favors. When Fiery Dragon was still a kid, he had taught him a lesson, which had left a deep impression on Fiery Dragon. Fiery Dragon had always considered Blood-maned his archenemy. He wanted to become stronger and then find Blood-maned to take back his face.
At the beginning, Fiery Dragon and Blood-maned were mocking each other. Gradually, their faces turned red. Their auras became more ferocious, as if they wanted to fight.
Fiery Dragon used to be afraid of Blood-maned. However, after his body was quenched by Shi Yan, he felt that his power had increased massively. He wasn't afraid of Blood-maned's cultivation base, which was one level higher than his. Today, their dispute had reached a critical point, and he wanted to vent his anger.
Shi Yan watched from a distance. His thoughts flickered, then he smiled and flew over, pitching his voice. "You two!"
Blood-maned and Fiery Dragon were about to take action. Hearing him, they halted, looking at him bewilderedly.
"Shi Yan, I don't need your help in the battle with Blood-maned. We won't rely on others for our battle." Fiery Dragon was astounded. He thought that Shi Yan wanted to take revenge for him. He shook his head continually, refusing directly. "I believe that Blood-maned can't hurt me this time."
Blood-maned's golden mane was like steel needles, standing upright. He looked like a small gold mountain at the bottom of the lake, with a sharp aura.
Blood-maned's eyes were filled with endless fighting desire, looking at Shi Yan. He didn't hurry to take action, but just snorted. "Kid, you're the one who plotted against Fiery Dragon. You're despicable! You humans are all the same! "
"Without Shi Yan's plan, could we have killed the True God Realm human that fast? You bastard! Don't show off when you're lucky. You're not a good thing! "Fiery Dragon cursed.
"You two, don't be impatient." Shi Yan beamed a faint smile, nodding to Blood-maned. "Have you noticed the change of Fiery Dragon? Do you know how it happened? "
Fiery Dragon couldn't help but shout, "Shi Yan!"
"There are many wondrous things at the bottom of the lake. If the two of you were to fight now, it would definitely end in a situation where both of you would suffer." Shi Yan looked at Fiery Dragon. "Moreover, this is Blood-maned's territory. We can't avoid him to do anything. The grudge between you two isn't a life-and-death grudge. I know your Monster Clan isn't narrow-minded. If we both take a step back, we can both benefit. Isn't it a happy ending? "
Fiery Dragon quieted down, as if he was thinking about Shi Yan's words.
Even though Shi Yan had refined his body, he knew that it was impossible to kill Blood-maned. At most, they could only be evenly matched. Otherwise, when he came here, he wouldn't have been that careful, trying to avoid Blood-maned.
Today, Blood-maned was at the bottom of the lake. He couldn't avoid him anymore. If they continued, he and Blood-maned would have to have a bloody battle.
The force on Shi Yan's side wasn't weak. He had proven it by killing Chu Bai Qing's team. If Shi Yan just stood there and watched him fight with Blood-maned, Shi Yan would feel insecure.
Thus, he knew that if this battle continued, it wouldn't benefit him at all.
Blood-maned was excited. He was a little curious. "Fiery Dragon's body has changed. Do you know how it happened?" He was very concerned about this matter.
"I created him myself. After my refining, his body has been upgraded to another level." Shi Yan grinned, looking at Fiery Dragon. "You don't deny it, do you?"
Fiery Dragon snorted. Under Blood-maned's scrutinizing look, he nodded reluctantly. "This stinky kid does have some tricks. If he didn't help me, I wouldn't have finished shedding my mortal body that fast."
Blood-maned's eyes brightened. He gazed at Shi Yan, talking excitedly. "You told me this, do you want to tell me that you can also … do it for me?"
Shi Yan nodded resolutely. "That's right. As long as you have enough payment and materials, I can help you refine your body one more time. You can finish shedding your mortal body easily. What do you think? "
Blood-maned agreed without any hesitation. "As you wish!"
"Alright then." Shi Yan was happy. "We should settle the matter at the bottom of the lake first. Then, we will discuss the cooperation plan. I'm a good talker. Master Blood-maned will understand me later."
Blood-maned nodded, approaching Fiery Dragon and asking for the details. "Fiery Dragon, you b * stard! Why did you hide such a good thing? It's the good news of our Monster Clan! B * stard, you're too selfish. You've been led astray by that human! "
Fiery Dragon grimaced. He grunted, but he didn't want to talk to Blood-maned. He was annoyed to the point that he couldn't do anything else.
"How do we collect the Soul Washing Divine Water and the Star Original Essence?" Shi Yan beckoned Li Zheng Rong's team, asking directly.
"We need to use the heaven flame to melt the outer shell," Li Zheng Rong said with a serious face. Li Zheng Rong wore a solemn countenance, talking seriously. "On the surface of the Soul Washing Divine Water and the Star Original Essence, there's a layer of shell that's more magical than the supple power of the lake. Only the heaven flame can melt it slowly."
"I haven't seen the Star Original Essence," Shi Yan was bewildered.
"Over there." Ye Chang Feng laughed evilly, pointing at an area under the Soul Washing Divine Water. "There's an ancient formation over there. The Soul Washing Divine Water and the Star Original Essence are stored in the center. We've just pulled out the Soul Washing Divine Water, but we haven't touched the Star Original Essence yet."
"Ancient formation?" Shi Yan's eyes brightened. He didn't wait for Ye Chang Feng to say more, walking towards the direction he was pointing at.
Yang Tian Emperor and Di Shan followed him. They were curious, and also had a vague expectation. The effect of the Soul Washing Divine Water had made them envious. They had a strong desire in their hearts.
Shi Yan arrived there shortly. He stepped forward to take a look. His body was shaken, and he couldn't help but scream in fear.
