When the innocent die, karma will cling to you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes!” Luo Bingyao said. “Disciple humbly remembers Master’s teachings!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, she extended her slender fingers, plucked the pill from He Pingsheng’s hand, and swallowed it whole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A miraculous sight occurred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red glow of karma on Luo Bingyao’s body and in her eyes slowly faded away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, all karma was purged from her entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Master! You’ve truly saved me!” Luo Bingyao was overjoyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng said, “It’s nothing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, Master, I have a family-secret divine art—though a minor technique, it will be useful to you in critical moments!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Take a look!” With that, Luo Bingyao handed He Pingsheng a jade slip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng smiled: “So now you’re my Master, teaching me techniques?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, Master!” Luo Bingyao’s cheeks flushed red. “I’m serious! You’ll see—it’s a bit dark, yes, but perfect for those who act with cruelty!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng nodded and sent a thread of spiritual sense into the jade slip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quickly, the contents of the jade slip appeared in He Pingsheng’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a divine art called: Soul Binding Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though called a “technique,” it was not a spell, but a true divine art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It required alignment with one’s own cosmic law to activate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng skimmed its outline and understood: it was a divine art to capture another’s soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simple: after killing an opponent, you could trap their soul—or even destroy it outright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a major move, a grand divine art!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether cultivator or mortal, upon death, the soul departs the body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Souls are uniquely special.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without intervention, they are drawn to the Reincarnation Realm and enter the Six Paths of Rebirth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But exceptions exist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, using dark artifacts like the Ten Thousand Souls Banner can absorb and refine souls, yet such acts violate the Six Paths’ law and attract karma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, though He Pingsheng had once enhanced a Ten Thousand Souls Banner, he rarely used it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The souls he absorbed were only those of his enemies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, some of his own karma glow came from that banner. After arriving in the Spirit Realm, he almost never used it again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, without such dark artifacts, one could simply obliterate a soul outright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that required overwhelming combat power far exceeding the opponent’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without such means, ordinary beings could not interfere with souls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is, absent exceptions, souls inevitably head toward the Reincarnation Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But one exception exists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is, when one possesses a body double.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>High-level cultivators with body doubles: upon death, their soul naturally follows cosmic law and flies to the double, merging with it to be reborn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This process cannot normally be interfered with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how powerful you are, you cannot stop the original’s soul from flying to the double.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This force even surpasses the pull of the Six Paths—so the soul goes to the double, not the Reincarnation Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is the fundamental principle behind having two lives when possessing a body double.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with He Pingsheng’s possession of this Soul Binding Technique, things change: once mastered, he could interfere with souls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, though He Pingsheng could now kill Void Refinement cultivators, he could not trap their souls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their souls would flow to their doubles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if he mastered this Soul Binding Technique, after killing an opponent, he could trap their soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What advantage does this offer?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if you have a body double, I trap your soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or even erase it outright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the fragment of soul-essence on your double loses its anchor and vanishes instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, the double becomes a mindless living corpse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this way, you kill both original and double at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a divine art is not too strong to be called defying heaven—it’s no wonder Luo Bingyao called it dark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dark? It was utterly sinister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this divine art had its limits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng saw it could only affect cultivators below his own realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, He Pingsheng could now kill Void Refinement cultivators below Level 11 and destroy both their original and double—but he was powerless against Body Integration cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What a ruthless divine art!” He Pingsheng withdrew his spiritual sense from the jade slip and asked, “Bingyao, is this the original or a copy?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Bingyao said, “Master, take it without worry—it’s a copy!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good!” He Pingsheng nodded. “A copy makes me feel at ease.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right before his disciple, he swiftly tucked the jade slip away—and secretly dropped it into the Treasure Basin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Enhance it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, the divine art he’d placed in the Treasure Basin was enhanced into two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng casually pulled out the first one to examine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Name: Six Paths Soul Snatching Art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rank: Heaven Grade Divine Art!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Function: After cultivation, it opens a crack in the Six Paths of Rebirth, allowing the retrieval of specific souls from within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Note: This act violates cosmic harmony; the caster will accumulate massive karma glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But from the description, He Pingsheng already knew its use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For instance, if a loved one died and their soul entered the Six Paths, this art could forcibly drag it back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the cost: immense karma glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, it’s a battle against heaven itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This will be useful in a pinch—worth cultivating!” He Pingsheng sealed the jade slip away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he pulled out the second jade slip and scanned it with his spiritual sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Name: Huang Quan Soul Snatching Chain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rank: Heaven Grade Divine Art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Function: Once mastered, it can capture all souls within two major realms above your own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this description, He Pingsheng’s spirits surged: Got it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>9.0, thanks to all the parents, bonus chapter starts—today ten chapters, but wait, I need to get my son to sports training first—I’ll finish all ten before 10 PM.\u003C\u002Fp>",1099,"2026-06-21T04:09:01.327Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","9b63514178acf37772252531364676543c0f346456a0b4dc680537f42421093f","the-treasure-immortal-basin-chapter-849","the-treasure-immortal-basin-chapter-847",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-treasure-immortal-basin-cover.jpg"]
