Lin Yi efficiently defeated several Upper Gods, drawing the attention of the God of Soul Gathering. Despite sensing Lin Yi's movements, the God of Soul Gathering found his own physical strength lacking. When the God of Soul Gathering launched a powerful attack using his Soul Banner, Lin Yi effortlessly countered it with his unique transparent flames, which easily destroyed the specters. Lin Yi then revealed his mastery over the Reincarnation Law, causing the God of Soul Gathering to unleash his ultimate move, [Soul Gathering].

The piercing wails echoed throughout the Secret Realm.

Even the Fu Xi Talisman suspended mid-air trembled slightly.

Subsequently, hundreds of spectral souls, exuding an even more exaggerated aura, appeared behind the God of Soul Gathering.

Under the influence of the God of Soul Gathering’s special Divine Power, the souls formed a semi-transparent, unique tentacle, both ethereal and real, on their chests, attaching it to the back of the God of Soul Gathering.

Hundreds of tentacles overlapped, making the God of Soul Gathering resemble a giant hedgehog spirit at first glance, a scene slightly comical.

Yet, the aura of the God of Soul Gathering was rapidly recovering, so much so that even the Divine Power and Taichu were restoring quickly.

This move, though the gap in strength between the two sides was large, the Eye of All-Seeing promptly provided a skill analysis:

[Soul Gathering]

[Type: Active Skill]

[Level: Divine Skill]

[System: Soul System]

[Consumption: Soul Body]

[Chanting Time: None]

[Cooldown: One week]

[Effect: Manipulates the soul bodies stored within the Soul Banner, injecting the Power of the Soul Origin into the user of the skill, transforming it into any required power by the user, including Divine Power and Taichu, achieving the effect of rapidly restoring combat strength or amplifying tremble. The consumed soul bodies will completely dissipate after their Power of Origin is exhausted, this effect is irreversible.]

[Note: All souls in the world, heed my command!]

Yo ho.

Didn’t expect the Soul Gathering to have such a trump card.

I must say, if the Fu Xi Talisman hadn’t been directly defeated, then the God of Soul Gathering wouldn’t have lasted long.

But this guy held back even when life was on the line, treating even his own allies so insincerely, he truly deserves to die.

Only after reading the effect of the Soul Gathering did Lin Yi understand why the Divine Power and Taichu, which were set to not recover in a short time, could recover so quickly.

Turns out, he forcibly borrowed others’ strength.

Honestly, everything is just too coincidental.

If an opponent possessing other kinds of Divine Power confronted this move, they might really have no means to counter it.

But whose power did Lin Yi inherit?

It was the Divine Power of Qin Guang, Master of Ten Thousand Souls.

Also a controller of souls, in terms of Divine Power Level, Qin Guang was inferior to the God of Soul Gathering.

But Qin Guang’s ability was pure, aside from the technique of soul manipulation, he wasn’t really inferior to the God of Soul Gathering.

"Brother, you better run, the God of Soul Gathering is truly recovering his Divine Power!"

"His Divine Power recovery is fast, even if it’s just ten or twenty percent, we’re no match for him. Hurry while he hasn’t fully deployed his move, we’ll cover for you."

Helben and Morris, these two guys, honestly, they are quite admirable!

In terms of strength, the two are indeed quite average.

But when it comes to the code of the jianghu, there’s really nothing to fault!

Holding onto the principle that this life was saved by Lin Yi and should be returned to him, they swung their Lifebound Divine Artifacts and charged at the God of Soul Gathering, seemingly trying to disrupt his spellcasting.

They knew all too well this was akin to suicide, dying with a traitor’s name, yet they showed no hesitation, preparing to dash forward right after their brief exchange.

Strangely, just as they took their first step, a mighty force pulled them back.

"Hey hey hey, calm down, gentlemen, things haven’t gotten bad enough yet to throw your lives away."

The one who acted was Lin Yi.

"That guy’s Divine Power is all about soul control, converting the Power of the Soul Origin directly into the needed strength. I admit, I can’t match that level."

Lin Yi shifted his tone, a confident smile appeared on his lips.

"But when it comes to soul manipulation, I’ve never been afraid of anyone. As the saying goes, there’s always someone better out there, specialization leads to perfection. Today I refuse to believe this guy can outdo me in soul manipulation!"

As those words concluded, the skill [Light and Shadow Interweaving] was activated.

Lin Yi appeared suddenly behind the God of Soul Gathering, who was cosplaying a porcupine, extending a hand towards the unique tentacles on his back.

Seeing this move, the God of Soul Gathering responded to Lin Yi’s actions with a sneer.

"Foolish boy, you really think you’re invincible? Others’ moves aren’t something you can easily touch. If you’re so amazing, why don’t I have the Immortal King grant you the title of God of Ten Thousand Souls, how’s that sound?"

The special tentacles extending from the hundreds of soul bodies were formed by the Power of the Soul Origin.

This thing, under the God of Soul Gathering’s Divine Power, cannot be easily broken unless one also possesses a special Divine Power for soul manipulation. Even if one had a Divine Power Level similar to the God of Soul Gathering, it wouldn’t be easily disrupted.

That’s why, when seeing Lin Yi trying to interrupt his spellcasting, the God of Soul Gathering remained unconcerned.

Unexpectedly, in the next moment, the God of Soul Gathering’s face turned pale.

"I think the title God of Ten Thousand Souls sounds good, it’s prestigious, but just being a god of soul manipulation isn’t too impressive, so let’s skip that title for now."

A confident smile curled on Lin Yi’s lips.

What he unleashed was indeed the Divine Power of Qin Guang, Master of Ten Thousand Souls.

The moment his Divine Power contacted the tentacles, Lin Yi resonated strongly with the souls within the Soul Banner.

The souls exist due to the support of the Power of the Soul Origin.

The specters, having their own thoughts, knew that if they gave away all their Soul Origin, they would completely vanish from the world. Naturally, they were unwilling to do so.

Unfortunately, under the constraints of the Soul Banner, they could only obey the God of Soul Gathering’s commands. Even if ordered to die, they had to comply.

But now things were different.

The moment they touched the Divine Power of the Master of Ten Thousand Souls, they saw hope for survival.

Upon contact with the Divine Power of the Master of Ten Thousand Souls, some souls regained a level of autonomy, and the stronger specters even tried to pull themselves away from their connection with the God of Soul Gathering.

As the initial controller of these souls, the God of Soul Gathering keenly sensed their agitation and strong resistance. With this clear realization, he finally panicked.

This kid, how is that possible!

He has so many attack methods, even skills of space and void attributes, mastering so many abilities, and he still controls the Divine Power of soul manipulation? Why is he so versatile!

Moreover, this kid can influence the souls I control despite the large Divine Power Level difference, doesn’t this prove that his expertise in soul manipulation surpasses mine? What kind of international joke is this, the God of Soul Gathering has studied soul manipulation for thousands of years!

"Yo, is that it? Seems like your Divine Power for soul manipulation isn’t so impressive after all."
