Chapter 96

Boom!

On the tombstone of the Martial Saint Mu Canghong!

A vast and ancient aura surged out. That aura was vast and boundless; the moment it appeared, it swept across the heaven and earth in all directions, alarming the vast space of this Secret Land, making the atmosphere of the entire Secret Land even more grave and uneasy.

Not even a day had passed!

In various parts of the Secret Land, except for a few people like Lin Xiaoyun, most people were still staying here looking for an inheritance that suited them.

They looked toward the depths of the Secret Land one after another, revealing horror and confusion!

"What happened there?"

"With such a commotion, has some accident occurred?"

"This place is controlled by the Feather Saint; there shouldn't be any accidents, right?"

"Go and see, and you'll know!"

Above the dim sky!

More than ten rainbow rays flew up, all rushing toward the depths of this Secret Land.

Those who could enter here all had cultivation levels reaching above Martial Monarch; such cultivation allowed them to run rampant among the Human Race, so they didn't need to worry too much.

And at this time, Lu Li's expression was grave.

Martial Saint Mu Canghong!

With the help of the Soul-Pulling Thread, is he really going to be reborn here?

"Haha, Lu Li, this is the retribution for wanting to kill me. Hong Sheng's residual will is still there; once he awakens, no one here will survive. This is all caused by you, you caused this..."

Not far away.

Ling Wushuang's eyes were blood-red, and he roared loudly.

The moment he executed the Puppet Substitute, his Martial Dao foundation was already severed. He might be servile, he might be greedy for life and afraid of death, but his heart for pursuing the Martial Dao path was still there.

Otherwise, relying only on luck!

It would be very difficult to break through to the Martial Monarch realm!

Now his path ahead was cut off, and he was heavily injured and unable to escape, so he naturally became crazy.

"The wailing of a defeated dog, nothing more!"

Lu Li ignored him.

He flicked his finger!

A point of extinction star light pierced through.

"Ga!"

Ling Wushuang's voice stopped abruptly!

Blood flowed from his forehead, the vitality in his body dissipated, and he fell down just like that.

This Ling Wushuang was not worth pitying!

The moment he used the Soul-Pulling Thread, Lu Li had already formed the intent to kill!

Soul-Pulling Thread!

Drawing out souls and pulling at intent!

It was originally for condensing the residual will of the dead!

Combined with the Clear Spirit Technique, it was a complete soul-summoning method that could allow the souls of Human Race heroes who had already died but still had regrets left unsaid to return, so they wouldn't be left with regrets.

It was considered a wonderful spiritual item created by the predecessors of the Human Race!

Because it was difficult to refine!

Very few people used it for purposes other than summoning souls and asking for wishes!

But this Ling Wushuang, in order to deal with him, actually had no scruples and used the Soul-Pulling Thread here.

One must know, this is the resting place of the Human Race's heroes!

Disturbing the residual souls of the Human Race's heroes!

This is the greatest disrespect to them!

A person who doesn't even respect the heroes of the Human Race is not worthy of dying here.

Lu Li flicked his finger.

A flame burned his corpse to ashes.

Such a petty person!

Doesn't even have the qualifications to become fertilizer!

Withdrawing his gaze.

Lu Li looked at the tombstone of Hong Sheng again!

There, a residual soul phantom gradually condensed. That residual soul was illusory and floating, nearly transparent, but standing there, it seemed to sweep across the universe, looking down on the world in all directions, possessing an supreme power that looked down on the world.

"Hong Sheng!"

Lu Li muttered softly.

This residual soul was one of the two great Saints who stood for the rise and fall of the Human Race and protected the peace of the Human Race with their lives.

Observing the power of his residual soul!

One could see how strong he was in his lifetime!

But unfortunately, for the sake of the Human Race, he died of exhaustion in the great battle a hundred years ago!

This was the greatest loss for the Human Race!

Otherwise, with his ability, working with the Feather Saint to develop the Martial Dao, the entire Human Race wouldn't have been unable to give birth to a Saint until now!

Gradually.

Hong Sheng's residual soul condensed quite a bit.

In his eyes, crazy battle intent surged.

Condensing residual intent with the Soul-Pulling Thread requires coordination with the Clear Spirit Technique to briefly restore clarity; otherwise, only residual battle intent remains, becoming a machine that only knows how to kill.

Lu Li did not spend time practicing the Clear Spirit Technique.

This technique was extremely niche and was also an exclusive technique used in conjunction with soul summoning!

Other than that, it had no other use!

Not just him.

If it weren't for someone specifically wanting to summon a soul back, very few people in the entire Human Race would practice it!

"Roar!"

Hong Sheng roared.

The residual soul returned, carrying cold battle intent, and the terrifying power rushed straight into the sky. A vast force roared wantonly, stirring up endless wind and clouds, and rushed toward Lu Li in front of him.

"Offended!"

Lu Li bowed.

Letting that terrifying force sweep over, three points of extinction star light appeared on his fingertips, carrying powerful destructive and killing power, cutting through the dim sky like aurora, and piercing through the residual soul.

Hong Sheng might have been incomparably strong in front of him!

A single strike could easily kill the current Lu Li!

But a hundred years after his death, appearing only as a residual soul, even if the power was still there, the strength had disappeared by more than a hundred times!

This residual soul could at most rival a Martial Monarch who had completed two evolutions in the second stage, and without any consciousness, it was simply not Lu Li's opponent.

"Roar!"

The residual soul was pierced!

That phantom roared again.

Lu Li did not hold back.

With a wave of his hand, the vast black ghost mist from all directions rolled out.

Five origins within his body condensed and appeared. They transformed into five-colored light pillars, arranged in a row, scattered around Hong Sheng's residual soul, reflecting each other from afar, and operating in an incredibly profound array formation.

Boom!

Endless black ghost mist poured into the array, rapidly fusing.

In an instant, it turned a space into a dead zone, trapping Hong Sheng's residual soul within it!

Lu Li stood in the sky.

Quietly operating the Five Spirits Killing Array!

If nothing unexpected happened!

In a moment, that Hong Sheng residual soul would be worn away in the array.

But before a moment had passed, a violent disturbance sounded from within the Five Spirits Killing Array, and a vast and huge earth-shattering power descended with a boom, passing through layers of black ghost mist and landing on the endless array light.

"Boom!"

The array shattered.

Lu Li retreated a hundred feet.

And at this time, the residual soul in the array roared and rushed out of the layers of ghost mist.

Above his head, a phantom green flame actually appeared. That flame was formless and qualityless, not clearly visible, but the battle intent contained within it rushed straight into the sky, as if it were going to stir up the entire river of time and space.

"Burning Battle Intent!"

Brilliance burst forth in Lu Li's eyes.

Burning Battle Intent!

That was the earth-shattering battle intent obtained only after the essence, energy, and spirit were sublimated to the extreme and the origin was burned. Without peerless cultivation and a will to die, one could not do it, and once one reached such a stage, it was a matter of life and death.

In a trance!

Lu Li seemed to dream back a hundred years!

Seeing the scene of that difficult battle back then, where Hong Sheng burned his origin, ignited his battle intent, and fought for the Human Race against the enemies of the eight wildernesses.

Even after death, the battle intent did not disappear for a hundred years.

Just a single strand of Soul-Pulling Thread could bring him back to the world to sweep away all enemies for the Human Race!
