Wang Lin was outside the gully. His eyes flashed as he reached out with his right hand and shouted, "Collect!"
The moment he said this, the sky ghost's angry roars came from the gully. At the same time, a black light shot out from the gully and pounced at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin quickly retreated and the black light chased after him.
Wang Lin let out a cold snort. As he retreated, he touched his bag of holding and the Soul Lasher appeared in his hand. With a snap, the heavenly ghost let out a painful groan and couldn't help but slow down a bit.
The Soul Lasher was specialized in attacking the origin soul. This sky ghost didn't have a physical body, so it was clearly a soul and origin soul.
The sky ghost became even more ferocious as it felt pain. Ignoring the pain, it pounced at Wang Lin. It looked extremely ferocious and murderous.
The two strands of grey gas on its body were like needles, constantly taking away a large amount of the sky ghost's life force. But at this moment, the sky ghost didn't even look at it. It charged straight at Wang Lin. Everywhere it passed, the grass withered and turned yellow. It was a very strange sight.
Wang Lin's eyes were cold. He didn't retreat and quickly lashed out with the Soul Lasher. With a few cracking sounds, the sky ghost immediately let out a painful groan. Finally, under the intense pain, it had to give up and escape.
Wang Lin knew that this was the sky ghost's weakest moment. If it escaped and recovered, then it would be very difficult to deal with it in the future. After searching through Luo Yun's memories, Wang Lin already knew that after the sky ghost betrayed him, it would need seven days and 49 days to recover.
Without any hesitation, he flung the Soul Lasher in his hand forward. The whip instantly became like a dragon, rushing straight towards the Heavenly Ghost.
The Heavenly Ghost was extremely ferocious. Seeing that there was no hope of escape, it suddenly turned around, opened its ghost mouth, and spat out a green flame. It was like a sea of fire, directly covering the Soul Lasher.
This ghostly fire was the heavenly ghost's life fire and its most powerful attack. The heavenly ghost's hatred for Wang Lin wasn't as strong as the whip, but the true hatred it felt toward the whip!
The way he saw it, this whip was something that was specifically used to deal with heavenly ghosts. Even if he died, he would destroy it. He had only heard of one such treasure in his life, but that treasure had long since disappeared from this world, so it was impossible for it to exist.
Right now, he had already decided that he had to destroy this strange treasure that was specially made to deal with the sky ghost. that was why he used his life fire despite his weakened body!
At the moment it spat out its life flame, Wang Lin's expression changed. He already knew how powerful this heavenly ghost was, so he was a bit hesitant. However, considering that this was its weakest moment, he decided to capture it.
But at this moment, the moment he saw the fire, Wang Lin's heart trembled. He didn't directly resist the fire, but he could still feel the strangeness of the fire. This fire didn't burn the body, but the origin soul.
Almost immediately, Wang Lin clearly felt waves of burning pain in his origin soul. He didn't have time to grieve over the Soul Lasher and immediately retreated.
But at this moment, the skin of the Soul Lasher that was covered by the sky ghost's life fire made a cracking sound. A golden light suddenly flashed. This golden light only flashed once before it disappeared without a trace.
But it was only a flash, but it caused Wang Lin's eyes to narrow.
The golden light flashed and the fire of the sky ghost that covered the whip was immediately extinguished. It didn't extinguish slowly, but instantly, as if it had been slapped by an invisible hand.
After the fire was extinguished, the sky ghost's expression became even more strange, as if it had seen something unbelievable. It let out a scream and quickly fled.
However, it was still too late. With a flash of golden light, not only were the flames extinguished, but even the Heavenly Ghost's body immediately became transparent. Almost in an instant, the Heavenly Ghost let out a terrified shriek as its body rapidly dissipated.
Wang Lin's body moved as fast as lightning. He directly charged out and grabbed the Soul Lasher. The whip trembled and immediately flew back into Wang Lin's hand.
Holding onto the whip, Wang Lin let out a sigh of relief. The golden light on the whip just now was too strange.
Looking at the sky ghost again, if Wang Lin hadn't pulled back the whip in time, it would have already died. Even now, it was already on the verge of death, and its body was slowly dissipating.
Wang Lin slapped his bag of holding and the soul banner appeared in his hand. With a wave, he sucked the sky ghost into the soul banner. Using the special environment inside the soul banner, the sky ghost stopped dissipating.
After doing all this, Wang Lin carefully looked at the Soul Lasher in his hand. After being burned by the fire of the sky ghost, there were some changes to the whip. Layers of thin skin curled up, and when he touched it, he felt that it was extremely hard.
As he looked at it, Wang Lin suddenly had a strange feeling. When the whip was burned by the fire, it was like a python shedding its skin. However, it had only just shed its skin, and its power was not yet complete.
After a while, Wang Lin put away the whip and looked into the distance. After determining the direction, he turned into a bolt of lightning and disappeared.
Three days later, Wang Lin saw the valley in the distance. At this moment, the formation above the valley was slowly moving, and a powerful pressure slowly spread out.
Wang Lin was very familiar with this pressure; it came from the restriction flag!
Before, when Wang Lin left, he took out the restriction flag and used it with the formation to protect the valley from the demon spirit wave.
His figure moved like lightning and arrived outside the valley in an instant. With one step, he entered the valley. He had broken the formation once, and with the restriction flag, Wang Lin could come and go as he pleased.
The moment he appeared in the valley, he immediately saw the residents sitting in the center of the valley, listening to Ouyang Hua's speech.
Ouyang Hua immediately saw Wang Lin and revealed a look of joy. He quickly walked through the crowd and bowed toward Wang Lin from afar. He respectfully said, "Welcome back, Upper Celestial!"
At this moment, there was no disrespect in his heart. He had personally seen Wang Lin leave with another outsider. Now that the Upper Celestial had returned, this could only mean one thing: that outsider had been killed by Wang Lin!
From Ouyang Hua's point of view, once two outsiders met, only one of them would survive.
"The depths of the valley are considered a forbidden area. Do not randomly enter!"
After saying this, Wang Lin took a step forward and disappeared from everyone's sight. He had entered the depths of the valley.
Ouyang Hua revealed a look of ecstasy. He took a deep breath and thought that if there was an Upper Celestial guarding this place, then his safety in the future would be greatly guaranteed!
Not only that, but it would also be much easier to expand his territory!
Thinking about this, Ouyang Hua's eyes revealed a hint of fanaticism. He suddenly turned around and looked at the residents in the valley. He loudly said, "No one is allowed to enter the depths of the valley. You all have to watch Haizi closely. Don't violate the clan rules!"
Most of the residents nodded, but there were a few who revealed unhappy expressions. One of the burly men muttered, "Why can't we go there? That's the only cool spot in the valley."
Ouyang Hua's eyes widened as he shouted, "This is the clan's rule. From today onwards, this rule will be included in the clan's rules. Anyone who violates it will be kicked out of the valley to fend for themselves!"
After he said this, the people who opposed him immediately stopped. No one dared to say another word.
Perhaps because he felt that his words were too stiff, Ouyang Hua coughed and said, "This valley is too small, it should be changed … Your families should have more women … Our clan should also expand a bit …"
Hearing this, the eyes of the residents in the surroundings immediately turned red, revealing a hint of madness. One of them took a few steps forward and said in a loud voice, "Elder, are we going to start a war?"
Ouyang Hua fiercely nodded.
Wang Lin sat in the depths of the valley. The reason he chose to stay here was because he had other plans. If he wanted to gain a foothold in the Demon Spirit Land, he needed strength and military merit!
He had to go to Ancient Demon City, but before that, he had to make some preparations.
It would be difficult to make a name for oneself in Ancient Demon City. Also, according to Lou Yun's memories, there were many experts in the left wing of the Demon Spirit Land. They were all natives of the Demon Spirit Land, and their cultivation focused on demonic spiritual energy. Their spells were also the same.
Although Wang Lin hadn't seen anyone who used demonic spiritual energy, Lou Yun had. Lou Yun's ancestor had interacted with them for a long time.
If it was before Lou Yun's soul, Wang Lin would have gone to Ancient Demon City without any hesitation, but now he had changed his mind.
"Instead of going to Lucky Devil City to enter the Demon General's Mansion of the Left Wing, why don't I stay in this valley and teach the people here so that they will listen to my orders? I will teach them spells and abilities. This way, countless years from now, I will have my own force."
Wang Lin pondered and then revealed a hint of decisiveness.
"Those who want to achieve great things don't care about trifles. I'll teach them the soul flag spell. This spell is easy to learn and suits the need to kill. The more they kill, the more soul fragments they can gather, and the stronger they will become.
"As a result, I can take this opportunity to see if I can repair the one-billion-soul soul flag. Once it's repaired, I won't even fear Ascendant cultivators. I'll be able to rank in the top 10 of all the foreign cultivators here!
Only then will I have a chance to obtain the ancient demon spirit! "
Thinking about this, Wang Lin took a deep breath. He touched his bag of holding and two jades appeared in his hand. He scanned them with his divine sense and left some chants on them.
The Soul Refining Sect had three spells: soul refining, soul extracting, and soul sealing!
Among them, the soul sealing spell was something only direct descendants could cultivate. In truth, the soul sealing spell was prepared for the one-billion-soul soul flag. It was the method to control the one-billion-soul soul flag.
As for soul refining and soul extracting, they were the foundation of the Soul Refining Sect!
Aside from these two spells, creating their own soul flag was also one of the most important things a disciple had to do. Only by creating a soul flag could they be considered a true disciple of the Soul Refining Sect.
Among them, Soul Refining was to refine an inherent soul, while Soul Extraction was to extract a living person's soul.
Wang Lin only left behind the initial chants for the soul refining and soul extracting methods. Then he pondered a bit and simply left behind the method to create the soul flag. There was a fatal flaw in using this method to create the soul flag, and this flaw was something only Wang Lin knew.
It could even be said that through this flaw, he could ignore his opponent's refinement and directly control his opponent's soul streamer as his own!
Wang Lin was a cautious person, so he naturally wouldn't teach someone without reservation!
