Chapter 937
Night in the Soul-Binding Palace
A battle was about to break out on the field.
Lin Xiao was staring at the night. The preparations over the past three days had been quite thorough, and he had already come up with a variety of contingency plans.
"Kid, relax. Although the person in front of you is at the Earth Immortal Realm, his weaknesses are very obvious. As long as you limit his strengths, then his Earth Immortal Realm is nothing to fear."
Lin Xuan's voice echoed within the Eight Immortal Towers.
Lin Xiao let out a soft breath.
"I can only win this match."
"Hehehe..." Night let out a piercing, eerie laugh.
"Boy, do you really think you can defeat me, a mere Earth Immortal, with your Profound Immortal Realm cultivation?"
The strange laughter startled Lin Xuan. It was exactly the same as the laughter of the Soul-Binding Hall envoy he had killed before.
"Could this person also be from the Soul-Binding Hall?"
Lin Xuan knew very well that there were many strongholds of the Soul-Binding Hall in this world, and many powerful figures in the Soul-Binding Hall.
As a soul being, I need to be extremely careful around the Soul-Binding Palace.
If he is found to be the culprit who killed the envoy surnamed Wu, the Soul-Binding Hall will definitely launch a fierce pursuit against him.
"boom!"
Ye and Lin Xiao clashed instantly, and a loud explosion rang out in the sky.
"Bang bang bang~"
In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged over a hundred moves.
The fierce battle caused the space above the battle platform to tremble slightly.
"Great Soul Palm!"
Ye leaped up, a black gas condensing in his right palm, forming a palm print that slammed towards Lin Xiao.
"As expected, they really are from the Soul-Binding Hall."
Upon seeing this move, Lin Xuan immediately concluded that this soul power was indeed a technique used by the Soul-Binding Hall.
"Boom!"
The Great Soul Palm struck the spot where Lin Xiao stood, and the surging soul power overflowed.
Lin Xiao's body had already escaped the range of the attack.
"Spatial divine power? It really does have some merit!"
Ye smiled with amusement as he watched Lin Xiao dodge his attack unscathed.
Lin Xiao's lips curled up slightly.
"My turn!"
As soon as Lin Xiao finished speaking, his body vanished from the spot in an instant—this was a spatial jump.
When Lin Xiao's body reappeared, the space around Ye was already locked by a spatial cage.
"Spatial folding!"
Lin Xiao clenched his fist, and the spatial cage that had locked Ye suddenly flipped over, folding up like a folding room.
"Your moves are good, but your skill level is too low!"
Ye shouted, and a black gas shot straight into the sky, breaking through the folded space. He then hurled a fierce beam of soul energy at Lin Xiao.
At this moment, the Eight Immortal Towers began to glow faintly. Although the light was extremely weak, it was real. An invisible force surrounded Lin Xiao and protected his body.
Lin Xiao felt the power of the Eight Immortal Towers protecting him, and his confidence increased greatly. He immediately stood up.
"White Tiger Attack Technique!"
"How is this possible?!"
Ye's rhythm was completely disrupted by Lin Xiao's sudden counterattack. However, the White Tiger's attack technique was already upon him, leaving Ye with no choice but to brace himself.
"boom!"
Ye's body is not considered strong among those of the same realm. As a first-stage Earth Immortal, Ye is simply unable to withstand the White Tiger's attack technique.
Above the battle platform, Ye's body fell like a shooting star, adorned with specks of red.
"What's going on?!"
The onlookers were stunned. Ye, a cultivator at the Earth Immortal Realm, was actually beaten to the point of vomiting blood by Lin Xiao, a cultivator at the Profound Immortal Realm.
Even the emperor sitting on the dragon throne couldn't sit still any longer. A Xuanxian realm cultivator beating a Dixian realm cultivator to the point of vomiting blood was simply unbelievable, even a bit too absurd.
But now this is actually happening right before my eyes.
"Keeping this kid alive is a real menace. It seems we have to kill him no matter what, or it will be a disaster for our Snow Moon Empire!"
Citroën's last shred of reluctance had vanished at this moment; if Lin Xiao hadn't died, he would have been restless and unable to eat or sleep.
"Wow!"
Ye knelt on one knee on the battle platform, coughing up two mouthfuls of blood, his aura instantly weakening.
"How did he do that?!"
Bing Hanfei looked at Ye, who had been severely injured, and his finger trembled as he pointed at Lin Xiao.
He had fought that night, so he was well aware of the gap between the Immortal Realm and the Profound Immortal Realm. Even though Bing Hanfei was a genius, he could not bridge this huge gap and was utterly crushed.
But now, Lin Xiao, who is also at the Profound Immortal Realm, has actually severely injured Ye, who is at the Earth Immortal Realm.
Lin Xiao was no saint. Seeing that Ye had been severely injured by him, he launched another attack without thinking.
"Do you really think my Earthly Immortal Realm is fake?!"
Ye sensed Lin Xiao's attack coming and immediately shouted, forcibly stabilizing his injuries. An extremely terrifying soul power erupted from his body, far surpassing that of others at the same level.
"How can this person's soul power be so strong? He is only at the Earth Immortal Realm, but his soul power alone is approaching that of the Celestial Immortal Realm."
Within the Ice Moon Immortal Sect, a Golden Immortal elder gazed curiously at Ye, who was displaying divine might on the battle stage.
At this moment, Bing Hanshuang suddenly parted her lips slightly.
"I wonder if any of you elders have heard of a force called the Soul-Binding Hall."
"The Hall of Soul Capture!"
Everyone fell silent.
The Soul-Binding Hall is a super power with an emperor presiding over it. In the entire Immortal Realm, the Soul-Binding Hall is an absolute top power.
The methods and cultivation techniques of the Soul-Binding Hall are extremely unique, especially their preference for refining human souls for cultivation, which is somewhat despicable.
However, because the Soul-Binding Hall is powerful and does not actively offend other powerful forces of the same level, those forces of the same level are unwilling to fight it to the death, while those weaker than it dare not speak out against it. As a result, the Soul-Binding Hall's sphere of influence has been able to develop steadily.
"That's not surprising. People from the Soul-Binding Hall all prefer to cultivate their soul bodies, which is why they have such powerful soul strength."
"But why would someone from the Soul-Binding Hall be mixed into our Snow Moon Empire's Genius Tournament?"
"Hehe, it seems our Emperor has some secrets to hide."
The Ice Moon Immortal Sect was the first to notice the anomaly, but they weren't in a hurry.
On the battle stage, Ye, now displaying his full power, had gone berserk and charged towards Lin Xiao like a galloping bull.
"Elder Xuan, he's suppressing my soul power!"
Lin Xiao immediately sensed that something was wrong.
"Hehe, the soul power of a Celestial Immortal is indeed impressive, but he's unlucky to have met us."
Lin Xuan smiled dismissively and then activated the Eight Immortal Towers again.
The power of the Eight Immortal Towers flowed into Lin Xiao's body, reaching his internal organs.
Lin Xiao felt as if he had donned an invisible armor, an armor specifically designed to defend against soul power. (End of Chapter)
