Chapter 332

Now, when Meng Ying and the others meditate during the burning of "Cold Flame," their mental strength increases at a terrifying rate.

This is also why they can cultivate to a higher realm so quickly.

However.

If that cluster of pure mental energy—devoid of a soul—were given to Meng Ying.

Meng Ying's mental strength would receive an extremely terrifying boost.

After all, Shengling are spiritual entities!

Although after their descent, their power is less than one-tenth of what it once was.

But they are still extremely powerful spiritual entities.

This is also why the eldest princess of the Xiling Kingdom was able to break through to Eighth Rank so quickly after gaining the power of the Shengling inside her.

However, before this, Lin Yan had been trying to extract information about the gods of the Xiling Kingdom from this Shengling's soul fragments.

Lin Yan had no intention of asking this Shengling directly.

He didn't know whether the Shengling could speak.

But Lin Yan knew that even if the Shengling wanted to speak, it could not.

How could a god allow its own Shengling to reveal its secrets?

Every Shengling is in fact created by a god.

Within their souls, the god has implanted mechanisms that prevent these Shengling from ever rebelling, surrendering, or leaking the god's secrets.

Even their memories are tightly sealed, containing something equivalent to a divine power imprint!

The function of the divine power imprint is to trigger immediate self-destruction upon contact with any other divine power.

And without divine power, the divine power imprint cannot be broken at all.

This is the frustrating nature of the divine power imprint—and why the Church was left speechless upon learning that the divine beans contained divine power imprints.

And the Shengling's memories also contain divine power imprints!

So Lin Yan had no intention of communicating with this Shengling at all.

With his powerful soul, he repeatedly crushed the Shengling's soul, grinding it into tiny fragments.

Crushed, then reassembled; crushed again, then reassembled again.

Each time it was crushed, the size of the shattered soul fragments differed.

During this process, Lin Yan's virtual divine grid was rapidly collecting information from these soul fragments.

When the Shengling's soul was shattered into countless pieces, a few fragments would inevitably leak a tiny bit of information.

After collecting these fragments, the virtual divine grid could piece together a rough blueprint.

In truth, after being tormented over and over, the Shengling was on the verge of tears.

It now deeply regretted ever coming to Yan Kingdom.

Why had it encountered such a terrifying existence!

Such an existence—it was certain that even if its power had not been diminished, it would still be no match at all!

"Please, kill me!"

The Shengling emitted a mental pulse.

But as soon as its mental pulse reached halfway, its soul was shattered again.

It was like a person having their throat slit mid-sentence.

The Shengling was nearly broken.

For the first time, it felt that having an overly strong soul was not a good thing.

For the first time, it felt that death was better than life!
