Lin Dong performs the Soul Capturing Spell on Pravina, extracting a portion of her spirit and soul into the witch stone, binding her fate irrevocably to his control. Emerging from an illusionary realm, he commands her to hunt down Alya while he pursues Thor and Samantha. As the trio flees and splits up in desperation, Lin Dong catches up to Samantha at astonishing speed, activating his Dragon Blood Holy Body and unleashing the Sword of Wuji to decapitate her in an instant.

Lin Dong slew Samantha in a flash, her corpse crashing down heavily, with dust kicking up and an eerie hush falling over everything.

Still, demise isn't the final chapter, especially for powerhouses who've reached the Heavenly Realm Martial Artist rank, where the spirit and soul hold the true key.

Right as Samantha's physical form lost all signs of vitality, a dim glow began to emerge faintly from the top of her head—it was her spirit and soul, filled with unwillingness and astonishment, desperately trying to flee this harsh fate.

With eyes keen like flames, Lin Dong spotted this fleeing spirit and soul the very second Samantha dropped.

A icy grin tugged at his lips, as though he'd anticipated every bit of it.

Clutched firmly in his grip was the archaic Drought Demon Horn, from which a subtle spectral radiance seeped, radiating an enigmatic aura.

"Trying to escape? Before me, Lin Dong, you have nowhere to hide." Lin Dong murmured, his tone chill like a biting gale, slicing through the tense atmosphere.

A quick snap of his finger activated the Drought Demon Horn, which flared with brilliant luminescence, unleashing a mighty pulling force from its end, zeroing in on Samantha’s spirit and soul.

This spirit and soul sensed a dire threat like never before, writhing in panic as it fought to shatter the unseen restraint.

But as an artifact designed to trap spirits and souls, could the Drought Demon Horn's might be likened to anything commonplace?

In a burst of brilliance, Samantha’s spirit and soul got fully drawn into the Drought Demon Horn, then the glow faded, restoring tranquility as if the event never occurred.

Lin Dong stowed the Drought Demon Horn away, a flicker of contentment gleaming in his gaze.

Now, he possessed the spirit and soul of a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist, set for later absorption to boost his mental strength even more.

After wrapping up with Samantha, Lin Dong wasted no time, shifting his attention to the path where Thor of the Thunder Clan had bolted.

This powerhouse from the Thunder Clan, Thor, had taken wounds earlier in his clash with Lin Dong, yet his prowess remained formidable, particularly in retreat when he could unleash astonishing bursts of speed.

Lin Dong refused to let such a threat linger, determined to wipe him out.

"Thor, your end has come." Lin Dong thought to himself, his body blurring as he turned into a streak of light, racing after Thor's flight direction.

His velocity was incredible, rivaling the swiftest gusts, trailing mere phantoms in his wake and showcasing his masterful command of motion.

Lin Dong knew that Thor, opting to run, would pick the stealthiest and hardest-to-follow path possible.

Nevertheless, whatever path Thor took, it meant little to Lin Dong.

For in their prior fight, Lin Dong had already planted a trace on him.

Lin Dong shut his eyes to feel it out, realizing the foe had fled a full thousand miles distant.

Such a vast span would daunt any average person, but to Lin Dong, it was merely the work of an instant.

He muttered spells inwardly, his hands weaving signs, as an old and arcane energy welled up from his core—the fabled "Earth Dragon Treasure Technique."

As Lin Dong's shape quivered, he merged seamlessly with the ground, vanishing into the depths below, with faint tremors rippling across the barren landscape.

A thousand miles off, Thor felt a secret surge of relief. Glancing back at the far-off origin, he mused within:

"Now that I've put thousands of miles between me and that peril, even with Lin Dong's might, he can't possibly close the gap this soon. It must be my old wounds that bought me this escape from disaster."

He was well aware why Lin Dong targeted Samantha first: assuming Thor's injuries kept him from going far.

But that very assumption had spared him!

After all, whoever gets chased down first is doomed.

Now, though, he was out of harm's way.

And he'd reached a thousand miles out.

A thrill of survival washed over Thor's mind, but he kept pushing, aware that only total departure from this zone would ensure real security.

After covering a few more hundred miles, Thor dropped all caution at last, halting to regain his wind, scanning around and certain he'd ditched Lin Dong.

"Seems like, I’m really safe." He muttered to himself, a seldom-seen grin crossing his features.

Yet, destiny often plays its tricks without warning. Just as Thor sought a spot to briefly recuperate, a sharp warning jolted him, sending chills down his spine.

He spun about abruptly, beholding a beam of light erupting from the soil, akin to the dawn's initial gleam, blinding and fatal.

It was none other than Lin Dong!

He'd employed the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique to trail Thor undetected.

Thor’s expression drained to ashen, never dreaming Lin Dong could sneak up so covertly.

Even at a few hundred meters close, he'd detected zero hint of Lin Dong's approach.

How horrifying was that?

Remember, for a Triple-Heaven Martial Artist like him, even forebears drawing near—let alone hundreds of meters, but thousands—would register clearly.

But mere moments ago, he hadn't picked up Lin Dong's underground advance at all!

Naturally, Thor missed sensing Lin Dong because of the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique's use.

The Earth Dragon Treasure Technique's stealth stems from its flawless concealment of the practitioner's presence, rendering the user an earth's phantom, impossible to pin down.

Even elder figures like the Shadow Sovereign had failed to detect Lin Dong's aura before, much less Thor at mere Triple-Heaven level.

"You... how could you... could it be, what you used was the legendary Earth Dragon Treasure Technique?" Thor’s voice quivered in dread, staring at Lin Dong while blurting out his shock.

"Earth Dragon Treasure Technique, can make you formless and invisible?"

Lin Dong offered a faint smile, one brimming with assured triumph and the quiet verdict on Thor’s doom.

"Earth Dragon Treasure Technique, how could you hope to see its full contours?" His statement rang steady and forceful, implying total dominion over the situation.

In that instant, Thor grasped the truth: no distance fled, no hiding spot chosen, could defy Lin Dong’s overwhelming power—all efforts were in vain.

"Lin Dong, do you really want to kill me? I am of the Thunder Clan, our Thunder Clan, but there exists ancestor-level beings. And that ancestor-level being, is my grandpa! If you kill me, he will definitely not let you go!"

This Thor of the Thunder Clan, seeing flight impossible, invoked his clan outright to intimidate Lin Dong.

At these words, Lin Dong scoffed and replied, "Your Thunder Clan, compared to the Dark Family, how do they measure up?"

Hearing that, Thor from the Thunder Clan cleared his throat slightly and responded, "Our Thunder Clan is strong, but compared to the Dark Family, who have dominated the Western Martial Arts history, naturally we are inferior."

"They now still have ancestor-level existences, several Junior Patriarchs even. We, the Thunder Clan, of course are not comparable to them."

"But I dared to slaughter Little Monarch Red Dragon in front of the Dark Family’s Shadow Sovereign’s face, I’m not even afraid of the Dark Family, do you think bringing up a Thunder Clan would scare me?" Lin Dong stated coolly.

And upon hearing this, Thor stood completely stunned.

"You killed Little Monarch Red Dragon in front of the Shadow Sovereign? How is that possible!"
