Chapter 4173: 4173 Chapter 4173: The Soul Devouring Spirit King Courting Death The Soul Devouring Spirit King was actually trying to transform into the Azure Robed Elder. Lin Moyu unconsciously paused, curiosity flickering in his eyes. The Azure Robed Elder was not a native being of this realm; the Soul Devouring Spirit King had evolved from the impurities of the domain, belonging to the Fifth World Domain. Moreover, the Azure Robed Elder was likely a Great Sovereign of Heaven and Earth an Eternal within a domain attempting to become a Great Sovereign of Heaven and Earth. "That’s just asking for death!" Lin Moyu didn’t believe the Soul Devouring Spirit King could succeed. This transformation was unusually slow, and the Soul Devouring Spirit King seemed to be struggling. The azure robe had formed, but the Azure Robed Elder never fully appeared. The Soul Devouring Spirit King grew anxious, roaring repeatedly, and finally, amidst the roars, managed to evolve the visage of the Azure Robed Elder. Then bang! Azure light exploded, and the Soul Devouring Spirit King shattered into fragments, each glowing with blue light that lingered for a long time. The Soul Devouring Spirit King did not recover immediately; the fragments slowly reassembled, but the process was sluggish. Lin Moyu frowned slightly, sensing a strange force from the void that struck the Soul Devouring Spirit King and shattered him. This force was peculiar, unlike anything he’d seen before, and surpassed the power of the Great Dao. Enveloped by this force, the Soul Devouring Spirit King could not recover for a long time. The force continued to erode him, making him weaker and weaker. After a long while, the Soul Devouring Spirit King finally reformed, returning to his original state. But now, his aura was less than twenty percent of what it had been, gravely injured and hard to recover. In Lin Moyu’s eyes, the Soul Devouring Spirit King was now little stronger than an ordinary Soul Devouring Spirit. He could no longer utter a sound, whimpering like a wounded wild dog, his eyes full of terror. Clearly, the recent experience had terrified him the invisible force from nowhere had shattered all his hopes. "Of all things to transform into, you had to pick that guy. Serves you right!" Lin Moyu’s tone was tinged with disdain. In his memory, there were two people not to be touched. The Soul Devouring Spirit King insisted on becoming one of them if that wasn’t courting death, what was? Since that was the case, Lin Moyu showed no mercy, sending him on his final journey. Palm after palm struck, repeatedly shattering the Soul Devouring Spirit King, while the World Burning Fire refined him. The Bone Hell reappeared, its spirits devouring without mercy. With multiple attacks, the Soul Devouring Spirit King was finally driven to death. After repeated assaults, the Soul Devouring Spirit King finally exhausted all his life force and was slain by Lin Moyu. When he completely vanished, a cluster of essence appeared in the void. It was only the size of a fist, translucent like glass, with what seemed like water flowing inside. Lin Moyu could sense the vast power within chaotic, not of the Dao yet surpassing it. This was the condensed impurity of the domain’s heaven and earth; though called essence, it was actually a terrifying poison. If poured on an Eternal, it could shatter their Dao and force them into dormancy. A single drop could kill a Dao Lord. Lin Moyu collected it, murmuring, "First one." According to Candle Dragon’s request, he needed to obtain three such essences. Now he knew how to kill a Soul Devouring Spirit King; as long as he could find them, it would only take some effort. If another Soul Devouring Spirit King foolishly tried to transform into those two figures, killing them would be even easier. "Should I exploit this and make something of it?" A plan quickly formed, and Lin Moyu got up to leave. There were no more Soul Devouring Spirit Kings in this area; in the vast domain, there were only a thousand or so, scattered far and wide he would have to move on. Inside the domain, in the Great Wilderness, Candle Dragon personally witnessed Lin Moyu slay a Soul Devouring Spirit King and obtain an essence, his eyes filled with excitement. "It really worked!" He felt that his hope of transcendence was right before him he could not help but be excited. Choosing Lin Moyu was absolutely the right decision the best he’d made in countless years. Suddenly, his statue trembled. Candle Dragon turned, and through the omnipresent rules of the domain, saw what had happened. "Truly courting death!" A trace of disdain and a surge of killing intent appeared in Candle Dragon’s eyes. He looked up toward the void and spoke slowly. Within the domain, every Eternal whether in seclusion or otherwise heard Candle Dragon’s voice at the same moment. "All Eternals, return to the Hengduan Mountains and prepare for battle!" The army of undead servants swept along the periphery, slaughtering countless Soul Devouring Spirits, and Lin Moyu collected vast amounts of soul dust. Dozens of days later, another Soul Devouring Spirit King was found. The undead did not stop him, letting him approach. Soul Devouring Spirit Kings had to be dealt with personally by Lin Moyu there was no need for the undead to sacrifice themselves. The Soul Devouring Spirit King entered his sight, and Lin Moyu gathered his strength, stepping into half step transcendence. With a single stride, he was less than a hundred thousand li from the Soul Devouring Spirit King. The projection of the Great Thousand World appeared, the Dao forming a cage, and Lin Moyu struck with his World Ending Palm. The palm swept through, shattering the Soul Devouring Spirit King, while the Dao cage formed, leaving him no escape. Lin Moyu’s gaze was icy, his face expressionless completely different from before. Anyone familiar with Lin Moyu would have noticed something was off; something had changed about him, though it was self inflicted. The Soul Devouring Spirit King was shattered several times, then burned by the World Burning Fire, but finally seized a chance to recover. He glared fiercely at Lin Moyu, instinctively reading his memories, then began to transform into the strongest figure in Lin Moyu’s mind. A white robe appeared the Soul Devouring Spirit King was trying to become the white robed elder from Lin Moyu’s memory. Lin Moyu stopped attacking, quietly watching the performance. Beneath the white robe, the elder’s features gradually took shape. At the moment the face was complete, white light exploded, and the Soul Devouring Spirit King was blasted to pieces. At the same time, Lin Moyu sensed an invisible force abruptly descend from the void. This was exactly the same as what happened to the previous Soul Devouring Spirit King the only difference was blue light versus white light. The mysterious force from the void felt identical to Lin Moyu, with no difference at all. Since he didn’t understand it, Lin Moyu simply stopped thinking about it. The shattered Soul Devouring Spirit King struggled to recover, and just as he was about to fully reform, Lin Moyu struck, kicking him while he was down. World Burning Fire, Bone Hell, World Ending Palm all at once, just as before, finishing him off while he was weak. With this assist, killing the Soul Devouring Spirit King became easy; in just half a day, he was dead. Unfortunately, this time no essence was left not every Soul Devouring Spirit King would leave one behind. Lin Moyu’s expression and aura returned to normal, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. "It really works this will make things easier from now on." "If this works on the Soul Devouring Spirit King, could it work on the Soul Devouring Spirit Emperor too?" "If so, killing a Soul Devouring Spirit Emperor might not be impossible."
