Chapter 327: Raising a Gu

"Where is my soul power?" Dai Mubai lay blankly on the ground.

"Naturally, it has all been purified by me."

The purification effect of the Holy Dragon Eight Wings possessed an absolute restraint against Evil Soul Masters; how could Shi Quan not be aware of Dai Mubai's little schemes, so he directly emptied the soul power within his body.

Wanting to self-destruct? Dream on.

"Shi... Quan..." Dai Mubai's roar grew weaker and weaker; as his life rapidly ebbed away, his pair of evil pupils slowly began to lose focus and dim.

"The Soul Soul has begun to dissipate."

Silver light gathered within his eyes, and Shi Quan raised his hand in a grab, "Soul Soul origin... Deprive!"

A phantom figure emerged from Dai Mubai's corpse, floating blankly in mid-air.

"Although the Soul Soul has been maintained, his own consciousness fell into silence the moment he died."

"If enough energy is injected, his consciousness seems to be able to recover; in this state, it is somewhat similar to a Soul Spirit, though unlike a Soul Spirit, this is a pure Soul Soul life."

Shi Quan experimented thoughtfully, raising his hand in a beckoning gesture, and the energy of heaven and earth slowly merged into the phantom figure.

As if stimulated by something, Dai Mubai's soul body trembled violently, then his eyes widened abruptly, as if he had just been revived from drowning in an abyss, gasping for air, "I didn't die?"

The corners of Dai Mubai's soul body's mouth parted slightly, and although no sound was emitted, Shi Quan was able to perceive the sentence Dai Mubai had just spoken through the fluctuations of the soul.

"Shi Quan!" Seeing the familiar figure before him, Dai Mubai's soul body was instantly filled with rage, and he lunged fiercely toward Shi Quan; contrary to his wishes, however, Dai Mubai discovered that he was currently unable to move at all.

"Shi Quan, what have you done to me!" Dai Mubai roared madly.

"Interesting, intense emotional fluctuations can actually increase the strength and density of his soul."

"This feeling is somewhat like the vengeful spirits and resentful souls from my past life."

Shi Quan did not pay any heed to Dai Mubai's roars; Shi Quan felt absolutely no psychological burden using the soul of a fallen Evil Soul Master like Dai Mubai to conduct some experiments.

"Tsukuyomi..." Shi Quan calmly spat out the two words.

Dai Mubai's angry expression instantly went blank.

One second, two seconds, three seconds.

Dai Mubai's eyes regained focus, and endless fear replaced his anger.

In those short three seconds, he had endured a full three years of terrifying torture within the Tsukuyomi illusion as punishment; his consciousness constantly sank and revived, accompanied only by endless pain.

"Spare me! Shi Quan, I beg you, spare me..." Dai Mubai's soul body trembled as he constantly pleaded with Shi Quan; his former arrogance and madness had long since vanished completely.

"The judgment of the soul is, strictly speaking, the torture of its consciousness; although the consciousness may collapse, as long as the soul origin remains, it can be constantly revived; the Hell Punishment Method is feasible."

Shi Quan whispered softly, ignoring Dai Mubai's pleas, and instead continuously organized his own thoughts.

Maintaining the soul origin consumes energy, but the souls of some powerhouses are very strong; while eliminating their power, one can also use this energy to maintain some weaker souls; perhaps the two can maintain a balance.

About to reach a Breakthrough to Level Ninety, Shi Quan also had to begin constructing the subsequent Underworld world.

"Let's rendezvous first; such good experimental material must not be wasted."

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Shi Quan's mouth as he clenched his hand, sealing Dai Mubai's soul body into his Hundred Treasure Bag, then turned and headed toward the other side at a leisurely pace.

As for Tang San, Shi Quan had long since sent an avatar to follow him; with Shi Quan's powerful Mental Power and use of disguise abilities, how could Tang San possibly discover his presence?

Watching Tang San in the distance, constantly changing directions and hiding his tracks, Shi Quan could not help but find it amusing.

Shi Quan had been contemplating whether to strangle Tang San directly or to keep raising him like a Gu.

Compared to Dai Mubai, the power within Tang San's body was purer, yet equally chaotic; the current Tang San had completely become an Evil Soul Master, but due to his martial soul, soul bone, and bloodline, his strength was even greater and more bizarre than most Evil Soul Masters.

Unsurprisingly, the Evil Soul Master force that had suddenly emerged in the Star Luo Empire was the handiwork of the Tang San before him.

In terms of strength, the current Tang San was even a few notches stronger than in the original work; judging from the soul power fluctuations radiating from Tang San, his soul power level had already reached Level Eighty-Six.

If he were to Devour the corpses of three Title Douluo, this energy would be enough for him to reach a Breakthrough to Level Ninety within a year. An ordinary Spirit Douluo might not even be able to raise a single level in one or two years; for him to span four levels or more in one year, this speed was absolutely astonishing.

Moreover, judging from Tang San's current situation, besides the corpses of the three Title Douluo, he should have at least ten more corpses of powerful Spirit Masters in his possession.

"If he Devours and refines these corpses in a short period, he will need to go into seclusion for at least a year or longer to completely integrate this energy into his body."

"As long as I force him to Devour the energy within those corpses, I can at least ensure he won't do anything out of the ordinary for over a year."

"In that case, it is worth raising him well; after he has absorbed enough, I will send him some more nourishment later to let his strength increase rapidly; I wonder if he still has a chance to attain the position of a god."

"It looks like I have to pressure him a bit."

With a thought, his main body immediately received the avatar's idea; his footsteps paused, and he turned and accelerated toward another direction.

"I wonder how things are going with Boss Dai."

Tang San looked behind him with an uncertain expression and slowly came to a stop; after changing directions multiple times, he could be certain that no one was tracking him.

Shi Quan was just one person, which exceeded his expectations; now he only hoped that nothing had happened to Dai Mubai.

"That is?"

Tang San's figure stiffened abruptly on the spot; his current location was halfway up a mountain, with dense forests all around and a very wide field of vision; he was shocked to discover a familiar figure flying toward the distance in the distance, and judging by the direction, it seemed to be his backup location.

"Mu Bai!"

Tang San immediately understood that something had happened to Dai Mubai.

"Boss Dai, I will definitely avenge you!" Tang San's eyes were blood-red, his fists clenched tight; his figure pressed closely against the tree trunk as he watched Shi Quan's figure fly toward the distance before quickly retreating.

The location he was currently at was the spot he and Dai Mubai had agreed upon, while the direction Shi Quan was heading toward was a backup location specifically set up to alert the other party; from their position, one could just happen to overlook that backup location.

The purpose was to warn and notify the other party that something had gone wrong. Dai Mubai revealing this location undoubtedly meant that he was already in grave danger!
