On the other side, Huangshi immediately looked at his feet while Zuo Men turned around. Since Han Xiong wasn't affected by the psyche attack, he didn't dodge.
On the other hand, Lin Jin was staring straight at Ghosteye Granny. His carefree and fearless demeanor was admirable.
Zuo Men wanted to say something but was stopped by Huangshi.
"Don't panic. Since Brother Lin is doing this on purpose, he must have his reasons. Think about it, wasn't Brother Lin unharmed earlier?" Although Huangshi refused to believe that anyone in this world could completely ignore Ghosteye Granny's spell, Lin Jin might have a way to counter it.
After all, facts spoke louder than words. Lin Jin had indeed 'neutralized' Ghosteye Granny's spell twice.
They only assumed that Lin Jin had neutralized it. Little did they know that Lin Jin was only resisting the attack with the protection of the museum's psyche.
Truth be told, Lin Jin was extremely nervous.
After all, judging from Ghosteye Granny's actions this time, the spell she used must be extremely terrifying. Otherwise, the others wouldn't have reacted the way they did.
However, despite his nervousness, Lin Jin was filled with anticipation.
He wanted to see how well the museum could protect his psyche. In addition, during the second time his psyche was slashed, Lin Jin managed to figure out his opponent's technique despite the pain.
At that moment, Lin Jin even felt like 'I can do it too'.
As for whether it was an illusion or not, Lin Jin didn't know. Hence, he decided to test it out.
Using this chance, Lin Jin planned to use the old man's method to teach her a lesson. Lin Jin didn't know if it would work but there was no harm in trying. What if it worked?
In the blink of an eye, Lin Jin and Ghosteye Granny's eyes met again.
In an instant, Lin Jin felt like he was trapped in an endless pitch-black space. He couldn't even feel his own body or anything else.
'Amazing! ' Lin Jin thought. He remembered that the immortal barbarian had mentioned that Ghosteye Granny's technique was called 'soul capture'. Now that he thought about it, it was probably a technique used to instantly kill an enemy.
And this killing technique probably involved completely 'stripping' the opponent's psyche and physical body and taking them away.
Indeed, this move of the Ghost-Eyed Granny's was definitely a sure-kill technique. If she encountered an even more powerful opponent, she could easily lose her life if she was the slightest bit careless.
Before Lin Jin could panic, a door appeared in the darkness behind him.
The iron door of the Visitation Hall was also known as the Curator's Door.
Lin Jin took a step back and his psyche returned to his body.
At this moment, Lin Jin also saw a figure hidden in the darkness. If he wasn't mistaken, it was the Ghost-eyed Granny's divine will. Lin Jin immediately grabbed the opportunity and pressed his hand on the Qingfeng Demon Sword. Borrowing the sword intent, he slashed out with his divine will sword intent.
To Lin Jin's surprise, a beam of sword light flashed past like a bolt of lightning, instantly slicing through the darkness and illuminating the pitch-black world as bright as day.
At that instant, Lin Jin thought he heard the shadow let out a cry of pain and shock. He couldn't hear what came after because the mental realm shattered almost at the same time.
Lin Jin came back to his senses.
He was still standing where he was, no longer injured. Instead, Lin Jin looked like nothing had happened to him.
On the other hand, the Ghost-Eyed Granny's body swayed and she almost fell to the ground. If it weren't for the male barbarian immortal's quick reflexes, she would have fallen to the ground.
In an instant, both parties fell silent. Their eyes were wide open, clearly at a loss for what to do. Logically speaking, the one who should have fallen to the ground should be Lin Jin and not the Ghost-Eyed Granny.
But reality was just that absurd.
"He's a true immortal! Run!" Before she fainted, the Ghost-Eyed Granny struggled to say these words before losing consciousness.
At this, the male barbarian immortal shuddered.
A true immortal.
That was a true expert. After all, this was no longer the golden age of immortals where true immortals could be found everywhere. Other than a few large immortal sects, it was rare to see a true immortal expert.
Let alone a free immortal.
Some people said that free immortals no longer existed in this world.
Hence, a true immortal expert was enough to intimidate others.
Upon hearing the word 'true immortal', the male barbarian immortal picked up the unconscious Ghost-Eyed Granny and left without another word.
Before Divine Palm Immortal Qiu Bin could react, the male Barbarian Immortal had already disappeared. Qiu Bin was also a powerful person. Although he did not believe that there was a True Immortal here, whether it was or not, his two helpers had already left. He was left alone, and it was not wise to stay here.
Hence, Qiu Bin fled.
Yellowstone didn't give chase. After all, he and Dengling had to stay here to check on Lin Jin.
Yellowstone had heard of the 'soul capture' spell that Ghost-Eyed Granny used earlier. It was a sure-kill spell. If someone stared into her eyes and got hit by this spell, there was only one word to describe their fate.
Death.
It was said that the Ghost-Eyed Granny had only used this spell a few times. Yellowstone only knew of three times.
However, all three times, the victims were top-notch experts and none of them could withstand it. But who would've thought that the Ghost-Eyed Granny would be defeated by Lin Jin?
Yellowstone was currently in shock. He couldn't figure it out. Could it really be as Ghost-Eyed Granny said when she fainted? That Lin Jin was a true immortal expert who pretended to be weak?
Hesitantly, Yellowstone studied Lin Jin from head to toe, unable to come to a decision. He didn't know what to say either.
Dengling's left disciple was shocked too. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Brother Lin, are … are you alright?"
Lin Jin smiled. "I'm fine. I didn't expect to meet a psychic expert like the Ghost-Eyed Granny either. But she picked the wrong opponent. I'm untalented but I've learned a spell to protect one's psyche from my master. It wasn't of much use before but I didn't expect it to come in handy now."
A spell to protect one's psyche?
Yellowstone and Dengling exchanged glances, understanding dawning on them.
That made sense.
Lin Jin was definitely not a true immortal. After all, the number of true immortals could be counted on one's fingers. They had heard of many of them and knew them like the back of their hands.
That was unlikely. In that case, a spell to protect one's psyche was highly plausible.
This meant that Lin Jin now had a trump card that specialized in local spells. However, this could only explain why Lin Jin was able to defend against Ghosteye Granny's witchcraft attack. In that case, why was Ghosteye Granny so severely injured that she even fainted?
"Could it be because of Ghost-Eyed Granny herself?" Dengling's left disciple's imagination ran wild as he offered his own hypothesis.
Upon hearing this, Yellowstone pondered for a moment before his eyes lit up.
"Now that you mention it, that might actually be possible." Yellowstone wasn't basking in his imagination. He had his reasons. Many independent immortals had studied this terrifying barbarian immortal, Ghost-Eyed Granny.
Not only did they study Ghost-Eyed Granny herself, but they also studied her spells. To put it simply, Ghosteye Matron's spell was unreasonably powerful, but according to the laws of spell arts, the more powerful a spell was, the greater its weakness and shortcoming. Perhaps Ghosteye Matron's shortcoming was that she would suffer a backlash if she failed.
