Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao

Chapter 3992: Improving soul power

Ling Han communicated with high-level energy, and shockingly discovered that even if this was the netherworld, it was still unaffected.

Right now, his soul had also taken human form. Black energy immediately enveloped his fists.

Yes, he could.

Ling Han nodded internally. With the leap into the Core Formation Tier, his soul also possessed the ability to channel high-level energy.

Very good. Destructive Energy’s restraining effect on Yin souls surpassed cultivation level. In the Ling Han, Ling Han could not possibly match a True Self Tier, but here, even a True Self Tier Yin soul would probably be no match for him.

Of course, whether it was true or not would only be known after the battle.

Ling Han walked in the opposite direction, away from the masses. If he was alone, he could come and go as he liked, without any worries or attachments.

He observed the environment here. This was a rolling mountainous area, but the mountain was not very high, and there were no plants on the ground. There were only pieces of bare rock.

There was no sun in the sky here, but it was not completely dark either. Instead, it was only a dusky area, appearing extremely oppressive.

Sure enough, Yin souls were everywhere in this place.

Ling Han had not taken a few steps, when he saw a Yin soul appear ahead of him. It looked like a bull, and was completely black in colour.

In this place, the soul was equivalent to the physical body. Thus, divine sense naturally could not be released, and one’s senses were extremely poor. Only when the two were less than three hundred meters away from each other did Ling Han sense this Yin soul bull through his “eyes”.

The other party had also discovered him, and immediately turned around, charging towards him on all four hooves.

It opened its mouth, and released a roar. Its upper jaw had actually flipped over its head, which was incredibly exaggerated.

This was a Yin soul, so it naturally wouldn’t make a sound. It was just a wave of divine sense. Boom, the soundwave assaulted, piercing to the ears and heart.

Ling Han humphed, and the Destructive Energy surged, wrapping around his fist as it blasted towards the Yin soul bull.

Seeing the Destructive Energy, the yin soul bull actually revealed a terrified expression. Then, it rapidly braked, obviously wanting to pull back from the brink. Then, it turned and fled.

Ling Han was astounded. Yin souls only had the instincts of slaughter, and were like fierce beasts, but they would actually develop thoughts of fear. Just how much of a restraining effect did this Destructive Energy have?

He activated Imminent Skyline, and with a sudden burst of speed, he had already rushed in front of the Yin soul bull. With a punch, Destructive Energy surged, and the Yin soul bull was immediately blasted into smithereens.

This was a manifestation of the soul. It did not have a physical body, so there was naturally no shower of blood. Instead, it was only the soul fragments that were dispersing, but there was still one that was left behind, turning into a speck of sparkling matter that melted into Ling Han’s body.

Instantly, Ling Han felt that his body had become slightly stronger.

Now, his body was made up of his soul. Thus, even though his body had become stronger, it was actually his soul that had become stronger.

That was really the case. Killing Yin souls could strengthen the soul.

Good, very good.

Ling Han’s soul was very powerful, but it was definitely not the strongest among those at the same cultivation level, because he had not strengthened his soul before, such as cultivating some secret technique or natural treasures.

Hence, this adventure was very important to him, so that when he advanced into the True Self Tier in future, he would also be able to immediately stand at a very high position, and would not have to cultivate the soul after advancing into this cultivation level.

He continued onwards, and very soon, he saw even more Yin souls.

There was nothing much to say. There was only one word for it, and that was to fight.

He could feel that his soul was continuously becoming stronger. This feeling was really too good, making him have the urge not to let his soul back into his body, because without the restraints of his body, he would be even more free.

However, the moment this thought arose, Ling Han immediately became alert.

The physical body could not be without a soul, or it would only be an empty shell. However, the soul could not be removed from the physical body for too long, or it would be like duckweed without roots.

Without a physical body, there would be no feeling of weariness. Furthermore, killing Yin souls could also nourish one’s soul. This was the best way to nurture one’s soul through battle, causing Ling Han to become more and more energetic the more he fought. He was filled with energy, and did not need to rest at all.

However, he still stopped, and examined his own situation.

This kind of soul strengthening was too quick. He was worried that there would be repercussions.

With this inspection, Ling Han indeed discovered a problem.

His soul had indeed become stronger, but there were also some impurities that affected the purity of his soul.

His soul was impure, and after reaching a certain level, he might not be himself anymore.

Ling Han’s heart shuddered, and he hurriedly started to refine these impurities. Thankfully, there weren’t many impurities now. He expelled them one by one, and it wasn’t long before his soul became clear and pure again.

“Haha, I’ve finally found you!” A cold laugh rang out, and Bai Wenxuan walked out.

Though they were all souls, firstly, they had all simulated their own figures and appearances, and secondly, the undulations of the soul fragments were also fixed and unchanging. Thus, it was actually very simple to recognize who was who.

“Brat, I’ve been looking for you for a long time,” Bai Wenxuan said coldly.

Ling Han smiled faintly, “Are you rushing to your death?”

“What a joke!” Bai Wenxuan scoffed, “I am ranked 87th in Core Formation Tier on the Galaxy Network, with battle prowess surpassing Eighteen Heavens. Even if I am only in my soul state now, you are far from possibly being a match for me.

Where did he get such confidence from?

Cultivation level determined raw power, and power was the most important indicator of battle prowess for cultivators. As for soul power, though it would also be affected by cultivation level, but because everyone had not reached the level of cultivating soul power,

the gap wouldn’t be too big.

Moreover, Ling Han had killed so many Yin souls before, strengthening his soul. It was not certain whose soul would be stronger.

“Die!” Bai Wenxuan charged over. Even if he was only a pure soul, he still possessed a powerful battle prowess. His fists were enshrouded in divine light. That was high-level energy, and it was dazzlingly bright. It had a considerable restraining effect on Yin souls.

“Hahaha, the high-level energy I cultivate is of the light element, and is specialized in restraining souls. Without the protection of the physical body, how many moves can youn block from me?”

In a spiritual state, cultivators didn’t have a physical body, so they naturally couldn’t use mystical power. Thus, most celestial techniques were useless, and they could only use high-

level energy.

Thus, whoever grasped high-level energy that had strong destructive power against the soul clearly had a great advantage.

Ling Han didn’t say anything, and he simply raised his fist to block Bai Wenxuan’s attack.

Peng!

The two men’s fists crashed into each other. This was all formed from their souls, and they were competing to see whose Spiritual Power was stronger and whose higher-level energy

was more powerful.

After the attack, Ling Han and Bai Wenxuan both took a few steps back. Their spiritual bodies

rippled like water.

“Hmm?” Bai Wenxuan wore an astounded expression. Not only was Ling Han’s high-level energy no weaker than his, but his spiritual body was also incredibly solid. In fact, it was no

weaker than his.

How was this possible?

He was the consummate level of the Core Formation Tier, and was three minor levels higher than Ling Han. This was equivalent to his soul power having improved three times more than him. Yet, he was still unable to gain the upper hand? How could he believe this?
