Chapter 1389 - Twin Fiends
Liu Wuxie drew in a deep breath despite himself when he saw the countless martial souls. Roars from astral beast martial souls, sinister laughter from human martial souls, and piercing howls from monster martial souls all crashed into his ears, each carrying its own distinct trait.
The martial souls on the fourth level were several times more numerous than those on the third level. Liu Wuxie clearly sensed several martial souls whose strength matched human cultivators at the fifth- or even sixth-level Void Realm.
If he managed to gain control of them, he could even elevate their combat power to the seventh-level Void Realm. Once unleashed, they would be terrifying, and only experts at the eighth-level Void Realm would be able to suppress them.
"They're all wealthy!" Liu Wuxie's eyes gleamed. If he could brand these martial souls with his soul runes, he would have nothing to fear on the fourth level.
Even if he ran into experts at the pinnacle of the Void Realm, he could hurl a tide of martial souls at them, and even cultivators at the ninth-level Void Realm would suffer.
A small number of people had also grasped some elementary soul runes, but their attainments were far inferior to Liu Wuxie's. They could only forcefully inscribe runes and had no way to subdue martial souls as he genuinely did.
The martial souls around him finally surged forward, roaring as they charged at Liu Wuxie like a tidal wave, eager to devour him whole.
"Fight!" Liu Wuxie roared. With no room to retreat, he raised his hands and rapidly began inscribing soul runes.
The martial souls at the very front froze in mid-air, and a suppressive force subdued them on the spot. However, there were simply too many of them, and more martial souls slipped past Liu Wuxie's assault, burrowing into his soul sea.
A Soul Shield instantly formed around his soul sea, blocking the martial souls from forcing their way in. After absorbing so many martial souls on the previous levels, his soul sea had long since become comparable to the eighth-level Void Realm, and these martial souls couldn't break through his defenses.
He even unleashed Soul Spears to erase the weaker ones. The martial souls here were too mixed, and there was no way for him to refine every single one.
Thus, he divided them into two categories—those he would control and those he would absorb to strengthen his soul sea, aiming to push his soul sea to the ninth-level Void Realm.
