Kryptonian fate deduction, invincibility starts from killing monsters

As the last wisp of soul flew into Gongsun Ge's body, the eerie growls suddenly ceased.

Immediately afterward, Shen Lin noticed a white, transparent figure floating out of Gongsun Ge's body.

Holy crap!

Astral projection?

Shen Lin was taken aback, hardly believing what he was seeing.

From what he knew, a martial artist needed to reach the Primordial Realm at the very least to even begin to understand the soul.

Furthermore, it couldn't be a body refinement technique like his Nine Revolutions Heavenly Demon Art.

It had to be a proper spiritual energy cultivation method.

Only after the spiritual energy stars within the body exploded, completely reshaping it, could one sense the existence of their own soul.

Yet here was Gongsun Ge, clearly only at the Qi Opening Realm.

How could he suddenly be experiencing astral projection?

While pondering the answer, Shen Lin warily watched Gongsun Ge's soul form.

Just then, the air vibrated, and Gongsun Ge's soul form suddenly spoke.

"You brat! You're going to die a horrible death!!!"

"I spent so much time collecting that soul power, and you've wasted it all."

Hearing this, Shen Lin scoffed: "The way you put it, it's like I intentionally went looking for trouble."

"If you're not skilled enough, don't bark like a dog."

"Wouldn't it be better to just wait for death peacefully? Why insist on becoming this inhuman, ghost-like thing?"

Having become a soul form, Gongsun Ge seemed extremely agitated.

Shen Lin's words caused his soul form to tremble continuously, as if in extreme anger.

"Arrogant!!!"

"Insolent brat! I'll see how you cope with me in my current form!"

With that, he abruptly waved his hand.

His illusory arm detached from his body and flew straight towards Shen Lin.

Gongsun Ge smirked as he watched this.

His ability to transform into a soul state stemmed from a unique secret technique of Hundred Refinements Valley.

The Soul Forging Art.

It was created by the most outstanding talent Hundred Refinements Valley had ever produced.

It involved using the souls of all living things to nourish and forge a profound weapon.

The better the quality of the souls used for nourishment, the better the quality of the resulting profound weapon.

This was regardless of the forging materials used.

In other words, even a weapon made from scrap metal could have its power greatly amplified.

The founder even claimed that, given the soul of a Dharma Aspect Realm expert, he could forge a weapon capable of destroying the world.

Gongsun Ge wasn't planning on refining himself at the moment.

What he wanted to do was destroy Shen Lin's soul as quickly as possible.

Then, he would seize his body.

Essentially, soul-奪舎.

His original body had already been burned to a crisp by Shen Lin's Radiant Sun martial art.

It was no longer usable.

In that case, he might as well just take over Shen Lin's body.

After all, the other party's body seemed quite young.

As for how to destroy Shen Lin's soul...

For him in his current state, it was incredibly simple.

Attacks launched by him in soul form were simply impossible for anyone below the Primordial Realm to resist.

Therefore, he only needed to launch soul attacks at Shen Lin bit by bit...

"Radiant Sun!"

Before Gongsun Ge's soul arm could reach him, Shen Lin uttered a soft command.

Blinding light flashed once more.

The insubstantial soul arm, bathed in this golden light, melted away like snow.

Turning into a wisp of smoke that disappeared into the air.

At the same time, an indescribable pain was inflicted upon Gongsun Ge's soul form, causing him to let out a miserable scream.

The feeling was even more agonizing than having a part of his physical body cut off.

It was as if his very existence, a part of his consciousness, was vanishing.

Shen Lin smiled and retracted the Radiant Sun's light, slowly shaking his head.

Generally speaking, only Primordial Realm martial artists could influence a soul's state.

However, this was merely the simple understanding of the people of Great Wei.

Within the Saint Feather Clan, even newly born infants had ways to affect soul bodies.

The Radiant Sun martial art, in particular, could directly dispel and dissolve some fragile souls.

"You... how could you? Wait!"

Gongsun Ge endured the pain, looking at the slowly approaching Shen Lin in disbelief, and exclaimed: "What are you going to do? No, don't come closer! No!!!"

Because Shen Lin was currently emitting a faint golden glow.

He had adjusted the Radiant Sun's power to its minimum.

At the moment, it resembled a small flame emitting warm light.

But these strands of golden light falling on Gongsun Ge's body caused his soul form to dissolve bit by bit.

Sensing the crisis of his impending demise, Gongsun Ge panicked.

He hurriedly begged for mercy: "Little brother! Wait a moment, didn't you want to join Hundred Refinements Valley? I can arrange for you to enter the inner sect."

Hearing this, he could feel the Radiant Sun's light on Shen Lin's body diminish slightly, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

But the next moment, Shen Lin chuckled: "Now I feel like joining Hundred Refinements Valley is a bit too troublesome."

"How about you tell me all the techniques and martial arts you know right now?"

Gongsun Ge's soul form floated, and after a moment of silence, he asked: "If I tell you, will you let me go?"

"No!"

Shen Lin shrugged and said directly: "I won't let you go. Even if you tell me everything you know, I'll still kill you."

"The difference is, if you tell me all the martial arts and techniques you know, you can prolong your life a little longer."

Hearing these words, Gongsun Ge was silent for a short while, then suddenly sighed and said: "I understand, I will tell you everything."

"Let's start with the Exploring Hand martial art."

"But before you can learn this martial art, you must first master the basic forging knowledge of Hundred Refinements Valley."

"This part is very long..."

Hearing this, Shen Lin nodded indifferently and said directly: "Okay, you can tell me slowly."

He understood that this guy was just stalling for time.

But Shen Lin didn't care.

Because knowledge about forging was something he wanted to learn as well.

And so, Gongsun Ge slowly explained the knowledge of forging.

During this process, Shen Lin called Wu Kaiyuan over and asked him to report to the Demon Suppression Division in Xuzhou City.

Gongsun Ge was anxious as he watched this scene, but he couldn't do anything about it.

He could only wait patiently.

Slowly telling Shen Lin all the techniques and martial arts he knew.

In order to stall for time, he even interspersed many unrelated matters, secrets of Hundred Refinements Valley.

But Shen Lin didn't seem to care about this at all, and still listened with great interest.

Until two days and two nights had passed, and Gongsun Ge had told almost all of his techniques and martial arts.

His soul form had become extremely transparent, as if it would disappear into the wind in the next second.

At this time, the person he was waiting for finally appeared.

Two figures in black clothes flew over from afar.
