"Hexagonal Spirit-sealing Formation?"
The Nefarious Devil frowned when it heard this familiar yet strange incantation. It asked curiously, "Kid, has your formation evolved?
But even so, are you sure your Spirit-sealing Formation can resist over a hundred souls at the same time? "
The Nefarious Devil was a little doubtful. Although these spirits weren't as ferocious as their real bodies, there were still so many of them. If they were in the outside world, even a Perfected Domain Almighty would have no choice but to flee from the encirclement of hundreds of Heavenly Fate Realm or even Domain Realm spirits.
When Qin Shi heard this, he didn't cower. Instead, he smiled confidently. "Just wait and see. I'm sure you'll be surprised."
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Hundreds of souls quickly surrounded Qin Shi in the starry night sky. Qin Shi was like a target for all. Under the collective attack of the souls, all kinds of roars echoed throughout the valley.
It was as if an extremely powerful explosion was about to happen in the galaxy.
Rumble!
Very quickly, thousands of soul bodies and close to a hundred types of cruel energy shot out. Hellfire, moonlight, and savage claw lights tore through the sky, cutting down the stars and bombarding the Qin Stone Cannon from all directions.
Bang! Bang!
There was an extremely powerful explosion, and a colorful mushroom cloud rose up. Qin Shi was almost instantly buried in the flying sand and stones.
All the spirit bodies unleashed their attacks with all their might. When their attacks were effective, they stopped one by one, narrowing their eyes as they stared at the mushroom cloud, exhaling a few heavy breaths.
"Did we kill that kid?" a soul that mimicked Sanniang Yue Yao asked, panting.
Beside her, dozens of ferocious beasts shook their heads in confusion. A three-headed hellhound said, "It should be about time. With so many of us attacking, if we still can't kill him, I'm afraid he'll really become our bane."
"Fatty, scan!"
A soul that mimicked the fat man in the Beast Realm nodded and stretched out its chubby hand, which suddenly transformed into a wolf's claw. It was the soul of a Golden-skinned Weasel, so it had extremely powerful detection abilities. It stretched its claws into the air and sensed the dust particles in the air. It shook its head. "I can't sense his aura anymore."
"He's dead?" The souls couldn't help but relax.
"It's good that he's dead!"
The first three Cerberus heaved a sigh of relief. However, before they could turn around, a blinding golden light shot out from the Star Sand Map and dispersed the clouds in the center.
The golden light was like a brilliant sun. It slowly rose into the sky in the galaxy. A figure stood in the golden circle, surrounded by burning Hellfire, like a Fire God descending into the world.
Qin Shi stood inside the golden circle with a faint smile on his face. He raised his hand and a strange rune suddenly appeared in his palm. Once the rune appeared, the golden light around it rotated and turned into a hexagonal shape.
The hexagonal formation enveloped his body. Qin Shi smiled in satisfaction. "Is it done?"
The hexagonal Spirit-sealing Formation was a formation that he had learned by chance when he was studying the Talisman Demon Record. This formation was similar to the hexagonal Spirit-trapping Formation. It had the same function, which was to seal souls. However, the two seemed similar, but there was a qualitative difference. The latter was used on fierce beasts and used their souls as a prison to imprison them. The former was used on him and sealed his soul within it, causing his soul to completely fuse with the Spirit-sealing Formation.
Seeing that Qin Shi wasn't dead, the souls cried out in surprise. The Cerberus fiercely shouted at the Golden-skinned Weasel, "Didn't you say that he's dead?"
The Golden-skinned Weasel was stunned. "I, I don't know either. He, he must have used some formation to hide his aura. That's why I didn't discover him."
"Trash!" The Golden-skinned Weasel shouted angrily.
The Golden-skinned Weasel was right. Qin Shi's aura was hidden by the hexagonal Spirit-sealing Formation, which was why it had mistakenly thought that he was dead. Now, his figure reappeared. He stretched his body and smiled. "Since you've all made your moves, it's my turn now, right?"
His black eyes suddenly narrowed. An invisible aura spread out from his body. Immediately, his palm reached out and grabbed at a soul that was approaching him.
Bang!
Following Qin Shi's action, the hexagonal golden light turned into a virtual giant hand and grabbed the soul firmly. Qin Shi forcefully withdrew his hand and grabbed the fierce beast back into the golden light.
"Roar!
No!
Brother Dog, save me! "
The soul cried out in fear. However, everything seemed to be a little too late. When it fell into the golden light, the golden light instantly formed dozens of golden chains that firmly entangled it.
As mentioned before, the hexagonal Spirit-sealing Formation had completely fused with Qin Shi's soul. Therefore, when the soul was caught, it was equivalent to falling into Qin Shi's soul power. In this place, Qin Shi's soul ruled everything. No matter how strong the soul was, it was impossible for it to struggle free.
Puff!
With a muffled sound, the soul was suppressed by the chains. Qin Shi slowly walked towards the soul and placed his palm on its forehead. A strong suction force gushed out. At the forefront of the suction force, a blank Wraith Rune was formed and the soul was sucked into it.
Grabbing the Wraith Rune, Qin Shi smiled with satisfaction. "I got one."
Although the Wraith Runes here couldn't be used, he could now judge his realm based on the number of Wraith Runes. When refining the soul just now, Qin Shi sensed the fluctuation in his sea of consciousness. According to his current situation, as long as he refined another two hundred Wraith Runes, he should be able to break through to the third level of the Incantation Peak and five hundred Wraith Runes would be able to reach the fourth level of the Incantation Peak.
At the thought of this, he turned around and looked at the hundreds of souls outside the golden light.
In his opinion, these souls were like elixirs.
However, as soon as he turned around, he was startled by the dull gazes. He was a little unprepared. He could clearly feel the fear in these souls.
Seeing this, Qin Shi also sighed softly. Even though they were simulated souls, they still had voices and emotions. He couldn't help but wonder if what he did was a little too cruel.
"Little guy, don't think too much. In this world, the weak are prey to the strong. You already know this. A fight like this is a life and death struggle. It's already destined that there's no third way. You're strong now and they're afraid of you. However, if you didn't block their joint attack just now, they might not have taken pity on you."
"However, I'm the one who trespassed into their territory."
"But if you want to become stronger, kindness is the biggest obstacle on the road to becoming stronger. Over the years, haven't you seen enough people hitting you when you're down?
Life and death battles are always cruel. There's no such thing as good or evil. It's just an excuse that the victorious side uses. "
Hearing this, Qin Shi's expression became slightly gloomy. That's right, what is good and what is evil?
Over the years, how many self-proclaimed righteous people did sanctimonious things?
He patted his head and calmed himself down. He was not a great saint. What he wanted to do, what he insisted on, was for the sake of his ego. He had never thought about protecting the world. For the sake of his ego, no matter how many obstacles there were, he would not hesitate to cut his way through them.
His eyes became resolute. He took a deep breath and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you down. I'll make you valuable."
"Wailing Chains, Star Fire Tempering Soul!"
Qin Shi's arms shook with force, and dozens of black chains shot out from under his black robe. These Wailing Chains, Soul Tempering Starfire, were a formation martial art from the Hexagonal Spirit Sealing Formation. Once the chains shot out, they explosively shot toward the soul bodies outside, and dozens of soul bodies were fiercely imprisoned.
After imprisoning the souls, Qin Shi's palm reached out into the void.
Bang!
A soul was immediately swallowed by the golden radiance. Then, Qin Shi's palm changed and a raging suction force shot out again. He refined the soul into a demonic talisman in his palm.
Several souls were sucked into the golden radiance barrier. At the beginning, Qin Shi was still a little unfamiliar with the Hexagonal Soul Sealing Formation. Later on, he could easily refine the demonic talismans. In the blink of an eye, he had successfully refined ten demonic talismans.
With the help of the Hexagonal Spirit Sealing Array, Qin Shi was able to cope with the myriad of changes in his cultivation. Very quickly, his soul force advanced by leaps and bounds. One had to say that the Spiritual Soul Starry Sky Array was an excellent place for cultivation.
Therefore, even though Qin Shi had already expected this, his soul force cultivation had increased by leaps and bounds after cultivating in the Spiritual Starry Sky Array for two months.
Third layer, fourth layer, fifth layer!
When it was close to two months, Qin Shi deliberately controlled his soul force to make a breakthrough. His soul force broke through layer by layer until it reached the fifth layer of the Spiritual Starry Sky Array.
This was something that he had never expected. When he slowly opened his eyes, his entire body was suffused with a deep and mysterious dark golden color. In his deep black eyes, there was a golden color that caused others to be lost in it and be unable to extricate themselves. It was like a golden dragon that was faintly discernible and swimming about, causing him to be unable to help but reveal a wisp of an excited smile.
"This is much better than I had imagined."
"Yes, the fifth layer of the Spiritual Starry Sky Array. With this kind of strength, even if you were to compete with those old fellows, you would have a great chance of winning."
"Yes …!"
Qin Shi nodded confidently. He looked around and said, "In two months, I have almost refined all the simulated souls in the Spiritual Starry Sky Array. It seems like it's time to end this."
He waved his hand and dispersed the golden radiance barrier. The nightmare had finally ended.
When the barrier disappeared, Qin Shi took a deep breath. There wasn't much time left before the Talisman Demon Competition. However, he was still prepared to listen to Donkey Ruhua and go to the end of the Spiritual Starry Sky Array to take a look.
He turned his gaze and aimed at the end of the Star River. There were faint stars there, which were extremely fascinating.
