Chapter 1217: 1217 **Chapter 1217: Original Spell, The More You Fight, The Stronger You Get** The Shuojin Source Star trembled violently as Lin Muyu charged in, unleashing the unrestrained power of a ninth-rank God King. Not only did he possess the power of a ninth-rank God King, but he also had the tenfold damage effect brought by the [Strong Soldier] spell. Even with the Shuojin Source Star as its body, the Devouring Gold Beast Emperor was powerless to resist. The power gap was simply too vast; there was no comparison between a fifth-rank God King and a ninth-rank God King. Outside the Shuojin Source Star, the Skeleton Generals and the Skeleton King were fiercely attacking the two Shuojin Stars. They also enjoyed the tenfold damage effect brought by the [Strong Soldier] spell, tearing the Shuojin Stars apart like building blocks. The Devouring Gold Beast Emperor screamed incessantly, unable to stop Lin Muyu no matter what it did. Lin Muyu’s sword pierced through the high-purity Shuojin, killing all the way to the core area. A purple light filled his vision, with Shuojin essence everywhere. Threads of Shuojin essence intertwined like smooth silk, noble and beautiful. In the purple light, Lin Muyu saw the instigator of this incident. A fist-sized Devouring Gold Beast. The soul of the Devouring Gold Beast Emperor. It trembled in the purple light, shivering. It looked like a small dog, with eyes full of fear and ferocity. It glared viciously at Lin Muyu, its soul voice echoing, "I will kill you, I will kill you!" It seemed to have gone mad. Lin Muyu had been continuously using the Time Curse along the way, and under intense soul attacks, he had survived thanks to the Shuojin essence. Lin Muyu didn’t want to waste words with it and slashed out with his sword. The soul burst into dazzling purple light, screaming continuously, but it did not die. The Devouring Gold Beast Emperor screamed, "Die, die!" The purple light grew stronger, and a vague shadow appeared before Lin Muyu. The shadow held its hands as if cradling something. As soon as it appeared, it bowed to Lin Muyu. Boom! A massive force struck Lin Muyu, his soul violently shaken, suffering another intense impact. Lin Muyu felt his realm drop from the ninth rank of the True God to the eighth rank. The shadow bowed again, and an invisible force fell on Lin Muyu, dropping his realm to the seventh rank of the True God. It was another spell of the Starry Sky Spirit Clan, too strange to defend against. However, Lin Muyu was not afraid of the realm drop, taking a deep breath, and in the blink of an eye, his aura rose back to the ninth rank of the God King. Then Lin Muyu’s soul leaped out, holding a top-grade God King soul treasure, the Soul-Slaying Sword. Now temporarily at the ninth rank of the God King, he could unleash the full power of the Soul-Slaying Sword. The soul raised its small hand, pointing at the Devouring Gold Beast Emperor. The Soul-Slaying Sword, with a sharp sword light, shot out instantly, piercing the soul of the Devouring Gold Beast Emperor. The Soul-Slaying Sword was a soul treasure, and a top-grade God King soul treasure at that. All its attacks targeted the soul. The Soul-Slaying Sword pierced the soul of the Devouring Gold Beast Emperor, bursting into flames, burning the soul. The soul of the Devouring Gold Beast Emperor screamed in the flames, and the Shuojin essence flowed in like water, trying to extinguish the flames. But it was futile; the flames of the Soul-Slaying Sword were not easily extinguished. In just two seconds, the soul of the Devouring Gold Beast Emperor was burned to ashes, no longer existing. The shadow holding something disappeared, and the spell ended. With the soul extinguished, the entire Shuojin Source Star fell silent. Although it still emitted a blue light, it was no longer as explosive as before, starting to merge. The two Shuojin Stars had been shattered into countless pieces by the skeletons, scattered in the starry sky. Lin Muyu exhaled, his aura rapidly weakening. He voluntarily canceled the two original spells. At this moment, his body shook violently, revealing a mysterious smile. With the original spells canceled, his soul, like a balloon blown to its limit, suddenly burst. The soul exploded into fragments, and Lin Muyu’s entire body was enveloped in purple light, his talent activating, leading to a complete rebirth. The soul was reborn, and his physical state returned to its peak. Lin Muyu found that his realm had improved. After a massacre, he had risen from the fifth rank of the True God to the sixth rank of the True God. After activating the original spells, he had killed nearly twenty thousand Devouring Gold Beasts, some of which were at the God King level, and the rest were at the eighth or ninth rank of the True God. He had also killed the fifth-rank God King Devouring Gold Beast Emperor, absorbing a large amount of soul power. After the dual purification of the Talent Tree and the Nine-Colored Dragon Soul Crystal, a vast amount of soul power was still converted. "Original spells, the more you fight, the stronger you get..." Lin Muyu muttered to himself, the original spells were too heaven-defying. Others might have a chance to become a true powerhouse with one, but he had two... No matter who it was, they would be envious to death. With a flick of his finger, he released a silver-white flame, trying to revive the Devouring Gold Beast Emperor. Lin Muyu was not interested in the birth plan of the Devouring Gold Beast Emperor; he was interested in the Starry Sky Spirit Clan. This mysterious race had extremely strange spells, and their purpose here was also questionable. Lin Muyu wanted to know, and the best way was through the mouth of a resurrected being. The undead flame burned fiercely, but it did not condense the expected soul, nor did it turn the Devouring Gold Beast Emperor into a resurrected being. Lin Muyu frowned, the [Resurrection of the Dead] spell had failed... After pondering for a few seconds, Lin Muyu roughly understood the reason for the failure. [Resurrection of the Dead] required a corpse, even a single hair would do. But here, there was only the soul of the Devouring Gold Beast Emperor, and the soul had already been reduced to ashes, leaving nothing behind. The Shuojin Source Star had always existed, merely occupied and controlled by it, not truly its body, so it did not count as a corpse. Without a corpse, [Resurrection of the Dead] naturally would not work. "He probably wouldn’t destroy his original body, it should be hidden somewhere." "And it wouldn’t be far away, and it must be in a safe place." "So... the most likely place is here." "Search!" In this area, both physical and soul senses were strongly obstructed, making it hard to see clearly. And this was not something he needed to do himself. With a thought, thousands of skeletons appeared around him, starting to search everywhere. Lin Muyu turned his gaze to the omnipresent Shuojin essence. This was the core of the Shuojin Source Star, a world of Shuojin essence. The Shuojin essence, woven like silk, floated in the air like purple ribbons. Lin Muyu reached out, and a piece of silk entered his hand. This piece of silk contained at least tens of thousands of threads of Shuojin essence. The soul opened its mouth and inhaled, instantly absorbing the entire piece of silk. A layer of purple light appeared on the surface of the soul. The purple light clung tightly to the skin, flowing like water. The purple light was between the soul’s surface and the soul garment, another layer of defense beneath the soul garment. And Lin Muyu could feel that the purple light’s defense was very strong, surpassing the soul garment. As the soul grew stronger, the purple light would also grow stronger. "It really is good stuff." Lin Muyu began to absorb the Shuojin essence in large gulps.
