“What is going on…why is it not the Abyssal Snake Saint? Are…are they the Fate School!?”
His eyes narrowed at the thought of that. Traveling toward the entrance, Gu Lianhun's mind raced to think of the right possibility.
“A Soul Emperor arriving here means they must've followed the Saint of Fate's guidance! But…why is there only one?
“The Abyssal Snake Saint is still quite far behind this person. Then…is he following this person? Did Jimie not steal the information away from the Saint of Fate then? Is that why the Abyssal Snake Saint is here then?
“Pah, it matters not. If one wishes to enter this place, then they'll die regardless!”
And so, Gu Lianhun flew even faster toward Bai Yunfei with renewed cruelty!
The message he sent when his avatar died had only been one-way. He had no absolutely no idea what was going on on the outside and had no idea who Bai Yunfei was. In his eyes, this man was but a Soul Emperor that could be killed with hardly any effort.
He had no idea why such a person would be here, but no matter. He'd just need to soulscan them before he killed them.
Therefore, it was important that he captured Bai Yunfei as soon as he got close enough!
……
“I knew it! He doesn't recognize me!!”
Bai Yunfei's eyes lit up with glee when he saw Gu Lianhun attack. His 'plan' hinged on the hope that Gu Lianhun wouldn't know who he was. Everything would fail if that condition wasn't met, but Shen Pojun and the Frostfeather Saint both agreed that it was very likely the plan would work. And based off of Gu Lianhun's reaction, the plan was indeed looking like it was going to work!
“He's not using his entire strength…good!”
Judging from the power radiating from the black claws in front of him, this attack wasn't meant to kill, but rather to capture. Bai Yunfei smiled at this and immediately activated the +10 additional effect of the Counter Armor!
“Bzzz…”
The air in front of Bai Yunfei trembled before it warped in on itself, forming a pitch-black whirlpool!
The claws sunk deep into the whirlpool soon after and disappeared under its surface like a stone in water!
“What?! What soul skill is this!”
Gu Lianhun was alarmed. He thought his attack would've blown away any insignificant defense the Mid-stage Soul Emperor would offer instead of it being the other way around. He never thought his own attack would be neutralized so easily!
“Is he a dark-type soul cultivator?” He thought to himself after seeing the whirlpool, but he knew that wasn't it. “No! He's a fire and lightning type! And…a power-boosting skill! He's a Late-stage Soul Emperor now!”
It felt like he was fighting a crimson sun with how suddenly the person in front of him lit up with red light. Violet lightning crackled everywhere as the person somehow leapt from a Mid-stage Soul Emperor to a Late-stage Soul Emperor to a Peak Late-stage Soul Emperor!
“Hmph! A rare power-boosting soul skill, what of it? It matters not, not even if you can become a Saint! A weakling that presumes himself to be stronger is still a weakling!!”
Disdain filled Gu Lianhun's eyes as he prepared an even stronger amount of soulforce for his next attack. Waving his right hand, even more rays of black light began to gather in front of him. Filled with the full power of an Early-stage Soul Saint, the light soon transformed into a giant net!
This was an attack meant to end it all. It was meant to crush all and any resistance from Bai Yunfei, no matter what method Bai Yunfei might use to evade of stop it. Normally, this would be enough to end things, but then he made one terrible miscalculation…
—Another wave of his right hand later and a transparent wave of energy was sent soaring toward Bai Yunfei!
It was…a soul attack!
“It's here!!”
Bai Yunfei's eyes focused on this second attack instead of the larger black net coming at him. Eyes still on Gu Lianhun, Bai Yunfei felt his hair rise on his arms in excitement.
A soul attack was supposed to be shapeless, but Bai Yunfei was able to still 'see' it even as it barreled toward him!
“Bzzz…”
The Soul Sentinel Scarf on his head trembled violently as a burning heat radiated from it. Bai Yunfei's soulforce was already beginning to pour into it!
Then Bai Yunfei watched as the near-transparent wave of energy suddenly surge in the opposite direction!
“Aahhhh!!!”
One second later and an ear-piercing screech erupted in the air!
……
Gu Lianhun had been so confident in his success. He thought there was no way Bai Yunfei would be able to defend against his soul attack. Never would he ever imagine that his very own soul attack would actually end up slamming back into him instead!
It happened far too fast for him to defend against, nor to even react against. All he felt was a sudden and sharp pain in his head before his soul began to feel like it was being torn apart!
The +10 additional effect of the Soul Sentinel Scarf had been activated!!
+10 Additional Effect: 30% chance to completely deflect a spirit-based attack.Cooldown of 10 minutes.
It only had a thirty percent chance to activate, but that was under its own effects. With the Fate Pendant, that probability was doubled. It was still pretty dangerous to have something activate at a sixty percent chance, but Bai Yunfei was prepared to use the +13 additional effect of the Soul Sealing Mandate just in case.
+13 Additional Effect: Revert the state of the soul 10 seconds prior. Activated automatically when off cooldown and soul is in danger of destruction.Cooldown of 24 hours.
It meant suffering the soul attack, but Bai Yunfei was ready to endure it and bait out another soul attack to try again.
And if that didn't work, then Bai Yunfei would use the +12 additional effect of the Fate Pendant to reset the cooldown of the Soul Sealing Mandate's +13 additional effect.
+12 Additional Effect: Reset the cooldown of any equipment's effect back to zero.Cooldown of 1 hour.
That way, he'd be able to bait out another soul attack for the Soul Sentinel Scarf to hopefully activate. In total, he'd have three chances.
And Bai Yunfei doubted that it'd take more than three attempts for the +10 additional effect of the Soul Sentinel Scarf to activate. If that was the case then there was no point fighting Gu Lianhun. Bai Yunfei may as well use the Core Stone and escape.
Luckily, he didn't have to do that. The Fate Pendant and Bai Yunfei's 'luck' was definitely working today. Gu Lianhun's very first soul attack was able to activate the Soul Sentinel Scarf's effect!
……
Bai Yunfei smiled with glee at the sound of Gu Lianhun's cry, but he made sure to not lose himself in his joy. It was time for the next step!
Waving his right hand, Bai Yunfei sent out the Cataclysmic Seal while also sending a message in the Core World!
“Bzzz…”
Expanding in size the moment it came out, the Cataclysmic Seal transformed into a gigantic mountain to slam into Gu Lianhun with devastating force!
“Ah!!”
As weakened he was by the brunt of his own soul attack, Gu Lianhun was far from powerless. Forcing down the pain he felt as much as he could, he waved his right hand to bring out a golden sh.e.l.l-shaped soul armament to protect his front.
And not a moment too soon, for the Cataclysmic Seal made contact with the soul armament practically milliseconds upon its arrival!
“Boom!!!”
The world trembled when the two soul armaments collided. The sh.e.l.l-shaped soul armament let out a mournful wail when it was. .h.i.t, as if it was unable to endure the power of the Cataclysmic Seal.
“Get absorbed!”
Bai Yunfei growled under his breath, it was time for the Cataclysmic Seal's +14 additional effect!
