Chapter 193: Chapter 192 Soul Energy: 147566 (Subscription Requested) "Roar!" The Tiger Demon roared, emitting a fierce bellow, but immediately after, the roar turned into a wail. A silver needle shot out silently, like a flash of lightning, piercing directly into its massive tiger eye. At the critical moment, Ji Fengniang had deployed her Magical Artifact. Under Lady Blood’s control, the blood-colored dagger continued to exert its effect, the Tiger Demon’s blood, qi and blood were continually devoured by the dagger, causing the Tiger Demon to become increasingly weakened. "Opportunity!" Bai Ziyue felt his heart stir, and with a slight wave, the Cyan Light Sword transformed into a flash of electricity, swiftly aiming out, and in the blink of an eye, pierced into the Tiger Demon’s other eye. Thud! Encountering almost no resistance, the small sword embedded deeply and then under his control, it stirred violently. "Roar!" The Tiger Demon howled, but suddenly stopped, and then with a bang, it crashed heavily to the ground, unable to rise again. Without the Tiger Demon’s control, those Chong Ghosts that could initially contend with Bai Ziyue’s Soul-Gathering Banner’s Main Soul soon fell into a disadvantage, and were subsequently slaughtered and dispersed under the combined strikes of Bai Ziyue and Ji Fengniang. Looking again, on the other side, the others had also successively killed the Black Bear Demon and Snake Demon, just stopping. "Unexpectedly, Fellow Daoist Bai is not only skilled in crafting talismans, but his methods are also extraordinary, truly making me admire him," Ji Fengniang glanced at Bai Ziyue with a lively expression, and spoke. "Fellow Daoist Ji’s grasp of timing truly leaves Bai at a loss in comparison," Bai Ziyue courteously replied, while discreetly observing Lady Blood beside him. At this moment, her blood-colored dagger was still deeply embedded in the Tiger Demon’s corpse. Almost visibly, the Tiger Demon’s body became shriveled, as all its qi and blood, essence qi, were absorbed completely. In contrast, Lady Blood, who had seemed a bit fatigued due to continuous battles, began to rapidly recover, even her complexion became as rosy and dazzling as ever. After a while, Lady Blood lightly summoned, calling back the blood-colored dagger and putting it away. "Let’s rest, recover the consumed spiritual power first. As for the spoils, we’ll handle them together later," Elder Wu suggested, just about to find a place to restore his spiritual power, when he noticed Five Elders Root wanting to speak, his expression changed, and he quickly said, "You hush, don’t speak, let’s wait until we’re recovered." The others also glared at Five Elders Root, as if ready to make him regret it if he dared to speak. "I just wanted to say, it seems safe now," Five Elders Root muttered with grievance, not daring to speak further, and quickly found a spot to sit down and restore. Bai Ziyue quietly walked to an empty area, not minding the dirtiness of the ground, sat cross-legged, and then took out a Spirit Stone, absorbing and converting it, soon restoring his consumed spiritual power swiftly. During the recovery, Bai Ziyue’s gaze fell on the Attribute Panel. Soul Energy: 147566 "The soul energy has reached over 147,000 points, just over 2,000 points short of 150,000," *Seeing the Soul Energy Points on the Attribute Panel, Bai Ziyue felt a surge of excitement.* *For the first time, he had amassed such a significant amount of soul energy.* "Over 147,000 points of soul energy are actually enough to directly advance the Purple Qi Divine Observation Technique from the Fifth Layer to the Seventh Layer. Simultaneously, it is enough for me to elevate my martial prowess to the peak of Third-class Expert, and perhaps even break through to become a Second-class Expert. The speed of such strength escalation is something even the most talented individuals might not dare to imagine," *Bai Ziyue’s mind flickered with contemplation, ultimately restraining the urge for immediate enhancement.* *Whether it’s advancing martial prowess or immortal technique realm, any elevation would inevitably alter his aura.* *Given the presence of powerful figures like Xie Gucang, Lady Blood, and Elder Wu around him, needless to say, it was impractical to proceed with enhancement.* However, at this moment, he couldn’t help but silently anticipate the actual moment of his strength’s genuine surge. ... A little over half an hour later, just as Bai Ziyue and the others began moving, they all felt a sudden heaviness in their heads. Immediately, they noticed the surrounding environment becoming illusory, as if everyone were enveloped in mist, making direction indistinguishable, unable to even see others just a few meters away. "Be careful, we are within the range of the enchanting array now," Elder Wu cautioned, and hurriedly cast the spiritual eye spell. Instantly, the view before his eyes shifted, allowing him to see the nearest Five Elders Root and Zhou Licheng. "Only five meters of visible distance?" *Elder Wu’s heart sank, the effect of the enchanting array was more than he had anticipated.* *Suddenly, he remembered the Divine Eye Talisman he exchanged from Bai Ziyue earlier, and took out a piece, activating it immediately.* Buzz! Two streaks of soft purple light flashed from the talisman, directly entering his eyes, and then he felt a warmth in his gaze, unveiling clear views of a thirty-meter radius." *Suddenly taken aback, he promptly deployed his Magical Artifact.* Poof! There was a crisp sound, and a Yin Soul just five meters away from Ji Fengniang was instantly shattered. "Thank you, Elder Wu, for your assistance." Ji Fengniang had just activated the Divine Eye Talisman she obtained from Bai Ziyue, saw the appearance of the Ghost Soul, and quickly expressed her gratitude. "It was a mere gesture," Elder Wu said calmly, summoning his Magical Artifact back with a slight gesture. At the moment he stepped into the enchanting array, Bai Ziyue reacted promptly, a divine light flashed in his eyes, and he activated the spiritual eye technique which had become Dharma Instinct. Instantly, the area within fifty meters around him became clearly visible in his eyes. Naturally, he also saw the many Ghost Souls drifting in this enchanting array. "Isn’t the effect of this enchanting array too strong?" Zhang Xianshi said in shock. Even though he employed the Purifying Eye Technique, he could only see clearly within a seven or eight-meter range, beyond that was entirely shrouded in mist, without even a hint of clarity. He knew that his Purifying Eye Technique was a more advanced spell than the spiritual eye technique, generally, an Illusion Realm could hardly escape its detection. "A typical enchanting array naturally wouldn’t have such a strong effect. However, this enchanting array is somewhat different, as numerous souls of living beings are inexplicably drawn into it, losing direction and unable to escape. Over the years, combined with the Yin Qi of the Ghost Souls and the miasma that hasn’t been disturbed for decades or centuries with the enchanting array, this makes the effect of this enchanting array so powerful. But, as long as the Ghost Souls within the enchanting array are cleared out, the effect of the array will naturally diminish greatly. It might even be directly broken." Xie Gucang said, suddenly releasing his Magical Artifact. His Magical Artifact was an iron ruler about seven inches long, and the moment it flew out, it landed on a Ghost Soul more than ten meters away. Snap! With a crisp sound, the Ghost Soul was scattered to the winds, vanished into the void. The living beings like Bai Ziyue were a great supplement of Qi and Blood for the Ghost Souls that had been here in the enchanting array for decades. Over time, all living beings entering the enchanting array would be devoured completely by them. Therefore, at this moment, numerous Ghost Souls, like flies drawn to a scent, rushed quickly forward. Perhaps, in the past, due to their inherent lack of physical form, wild beasts, Exotic Beasts, or even Demons who entered by mistake couldn’t pose much of a threat to them. But now, what they faced were immortal cultivators like Bai Ziyue and his group. Various spells and techniques were almost inherently restraining these Ghost Souls. Therefore, when these Ghost Souls enthusiastically gathered, what awaited them was not a feast but utter destruction. Various Magical Artifacts sparkled, spells and talismans thrown out. Countless Ghost Souls were scattered to the winds, vanishing into the void. Soon after, Bai Ziyue and the others immediately noticed the mist shrouding the void seemed to fade, and the range they could see increased greatly. As they advanced, no Ghost Soul could block them in the slightest. Finally, at a certain moment, with the death of the last Ghost Soul. Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! The world became clear, and the enchanting array that originally covered hundreds of feet around the estate also faded away. Then, a small, extremely old wooden cabin appeared before everyone, looking like it could collapse at any moment. In front of the cabin was a small medicinal field about three square meters, planted with various herbs and other items, most of which survived despite not being tended for a century. Moreover, due to the gradually abundant Spiritual Qi there, these herbs had almost entirely grown into spiritual materials. Their medicinal properties were extremely potent, with most being over a hundred years old. "Ancient Cultivation Ruins!" Even the most composed Elder Wu had his eyes ablaze at this moment. Without any hesitation, his figure shot forward like lightning. Xie Gucang and Lady Blood dared not to delay, quickly following. Bai Ziyue’s gaze flickered slightly, yet he did not move. His root objective for this trip was actually to accumulate as many Soul Energy Points as possible to enhance his strength. Having nearly cleared out all of Mist Valley before already met his goal. As for the Ancient Cultivator’s Residence, he wasn’t entirely uninterested. He was aware that with his means, he might contend with Xie Gucang, Lady Blood, and others, but in the presence of Elder Wu at the Ninth Layer of Qi Cultivation, he felt it wiser not to act too recklessly. Moreover, his displayed Immortal Technique Realm was not strong; once a dispute arose, he had no doubt that Lady Blood and others would clear him out first, considering him relatively weak. After all, he had no real relationship with these people. Even Xie Gucang did not seem too close to him, and if he made a move, there would certainly be no mercy.
