Chapter 161 The Sect Master's One Thought, 90,000 Soul Cores
Deep inside the coffin.
The second anchor projection was torn apart by Lin Yuan's eight arms.
The dense, almost liquid, ghostly blue residual energy surged wildly along the crack.
The entire bronze coffin door was shaking.
The patterns on the coffin wall gradually faded away.
The bronze door chains that had originally dragged the coffin into the interlayer behind the door also lost their luster one after another.
Lin Yuan stood in front of the two-anchor projection.
The Eightfold Asura Body was fully unleashed.
Eight dark gold arms gripped the crack in the anchor nail, like eight human-shaped star pillars, desperately supporting the constantly healing wound.
The Ultimate Star Furnace began to spin with a roar.
The devouring continues.
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 888000]
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 890000]
Nine hundred thousand.
Only 10,000 short.
However, just as the number of compressions reached 890,000, the dormant will finally opened its eyes in the deeper part of the second anchor crack.
Not a bronze-level goalkeeper.
It was not the remnant of exile from the coffin.
The moment that will appeared, the entire mezzanine behind the door fell silent.
The door pattern stopped flowing.
The door chain stopped breaking.
Even the surging, azure residual energy was frozen in mid-air by an indescribable force.
The dark golden starry sky in Lin Yuan's eyes trembled slightly.
He raised his head.
Behind the two anchor gaps, it was no longer just a simple, dark blue.
One after another, enormous black doors slowly emerged from the boundless depths.
The doors overlapped each other.
The starting point is invisible.
It stretches as far as the eye can see.
Behind each door seems to be a completely different world.
The sound of the tide could be heard coming from some of the cracks in the doors.
Pale flames burned behind some of the doors.
From some of the doors, one could faintly hear the sound of enormous creatures dragging chains.
And behind all the black doors.
A shadow, whose complete outline could not be seen, sat there quietly.
It never actually happened.
It didn't even manage to cast a complete clone.
A single gaze followed the crack in the second anchor.
But this single glance caused the entire bronze coffin to groan under its own weight.
Click.
The first crack appeared on the coffin wall.
It wasn't torn apart by Lin Yuan.
Rather, it was because it couldn't bear that gaze.
Sect Master.
This time, it wasn't that lingering remnant of will from the bottom of the White Tower.
It wasn't a vague prying look cast through Lin Xiaoya's dream.
Rather, it was a single glance from the sect leader himself, seen through countless black doors.
"Human race".
The sound did not come from my ear.
Instead, it appeared directly in Lin Yuan's soul starry sky.
Beneath the dark gold starry sky, the phantom of a huge black door slowly took shape.
The shadow of the door almost covered the entire space of consciousness.
It wanted to use its existence to completely suppress that newly formed Extreme Star Soul.
"Swallow a single thought of mine."
"It also swallowed the strength of the goalkeeper's bones, arms, and arm."
"Now, they even dare to tear up the second anchor."
Lin Yuan's eight arms were still fastened to the crack in the anchor.
There was no letting go.
"They're practically served to us."
"Why aren't you eating?"
The huge shadow behind the door remained silent for a moment.
next moment.
The entire soul space suddenly turned black.
The black door that pressed down on the dark gold starry sky suddenly opened a crack.
There was no light behind the crack in the door.
It has only one enormous eye.
This eye is even heavier than the eye of the bronze goalkeeper.
It's also more realistic than the giant eye that appeared in the White Pagoda dream.
The moment it opened its eyes even slightly, countless dark gold star points within the Extreme Dao Star Soul trembled simultaneously.
One.
Ten.
One hundred.
The numerous stars were dimmed by the sect leader's gaze.
A fine crack appeared between Lin Yuan's brows for the first time.
Dark gold blood beads seeped out along the crack.
The sect leader's voice rang out again.
"You think you've refined a star soul."
"Then you can look me directly in the eye?"
Beyond the black gate, the giant eye opened even wider.
Countless whispers from behind the doors flooded into my soul.
"Open the door."
"Return to the gate."
"Sacrifice".
"Sleeping".
Forget yourself.
These sounds are no longer the residual noises from the coffin.
Instead, it carries the rules of the sect leader himself.
Each word was like a brand, trying to be etched into Lin Yuan's soul.
The Ultimate Star Soul can identify the source of pollution.
It can lock the spying trajectory.
However, the level of the sect leader's gaze was clearly far beyond that of a bronze-level gatekeeper.
The dark gold starry sky began to sink.
The enormous black door pressed down on the core of the Star Soul little by little.
The sect leader's gaze seemed to be trying to seal Lin Yuan's consciousness completely inside a door, as if through a second anchor.
However, Lin Yuan did not back down.
That's the look he'd been waiting for.
The remaining energy is insufficient to push it for the last ten thousand times.
The bronze goalkeeper's will is not strong enough.
The sect leader himself came to see it, which is perfect.
Lin Yuan exerted force with all eight of his Asura Arms simultaneously.
The already torn projections of the two anchors expanded further to both sides.
Stab it--!
Inside the door nail, more of the remnants of the sect leader's will surged into the coffin.
At the same time, deep within Lin Yuan's consciousness, the Extreme Dao Star Furnace appeared completely for the first time in the center of the Dark Gold Starry Sky.
The furnace body is heavy.
The furnace wall is engraved with the traces of all the doors that had been devoured before.
Door eye worm.
Door bone.
The door owner is sad.
Second anchor.
Bronze door arm.
Bronze halberd.
All the tracks lit up at the same time.
The Ultimate Star Furnace slowly rose.
It's not about blocking that black door.
Instead, the furnace opening was aimed directly at the door master's eyes.
The sect leader's will finally wavered slightly.
"You still want to swallow it?"
Lin Yuan's eight dark gold battle patterns, resembling his eyes, lit up simultaneously.
"You've already looked over here."
"We can't just watch it for nothing."
boom--!
The Extreme Star Furnace erupted.
The mark of rules in the sect leader's eyes was instantly entangled by countless dark gold star lines.
The whispers behind the door that were originally meant to crush the Extreme Star Soul were dismantled one by one.
Pollution stripping.
Willpower crushed.
The remaining energy is put into the furnace.
System notifications kept popping up.
[A projection of the will of a high-level sect leader has been detected]
The current target level exceeds the host's full capacity limit.
[Currently absorbing and refining the overflowing residual energy of will]
[Warning: The pressure on the Extreme Star Soul continues to rise]
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 892000]
The sect leader's giant eyes widened in shock.
It clearly did not expect that Lin Yuan would dare to devour it in reverse while enduring the pressure of the main body's gaze.
The black door suddenly pressed down.
Click!
In Lin Yuan's soul starry sky, dozens of dark gold star points exploded simultaneously.
In his physical body, the crack between his eyebrows widened further.
Dark gold blood trickled down his cheeks.
But those shattered stars did not disappear.
The Ultimate Star Furnace turns once.
The starlight gathered again.
The Star Soul took shape again.
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 895000]
The sect leader's gaze grew even more somber.
The entire bronze coffin could no longer support its weight.
The outer wall began to crack extensively.
The two anchor projections emitted a sharp, mournful cry.
Bloodstains also appeared on Lin Yuan's eight Asura arms.
However, every bloodstain that had just opened was quickly locked by the dark gold star patterns within the Extreme Star Body.
The sect leader is suppressing it.
Lin Yuan is swallowing.
One side wants to crush the human race in reality through countless black gates.
The other side, however, dragged every last wisp of will that fell into the Star Furnace.
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 897000]
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 898500]
There are only 1,500 attempts left to reach 900,000.
The sect leader seemed to have sensed something as well.
That giant eye truly landed on the Extreme Dao Star Furnace for the first time.
"Your power does not belong to this star."
Lin Yuan's expression remained unchanged.
The highest level of the system.
The sect leader could see that his system was abnormal.
However, it is impossible to see through the system itself.
It's even less likely that they'll stage an accident to extort money from the system.
Lin Yuan simply said:
"You talk too much."
The eight arms suddenly tore outwards.
The crack in the second anchor projection was completely penetrated.
boom--!
He forcibly pulled a large, dark blue anchor core from inside the door nail.
Within the anchor core, a trace of the sect leader's gaze, a dark will, still lingers.
Lin Yuan did not hesitate.
Eight hands clasped together at the same time.
The Ultimate Star Furnace opens.
swallow!
[Devouring and Refining the Second Anchor Projection Core]
[The overflowing will of the Sect Master of Devouring Refinement]
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 899500]
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 899900]
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 899999]
It stopped again.
Just one more time.
The sect leader's giant eye has begun to close.
It wants to cut off the view.
This glance didn't crush Lin Yuan; instead, it swallowed up a portion of his will.
Staying any longer will only give the gate-swallowers more opportunities.
Countless black doors began to retreat.
The giant eye slowly disappeared through the crack in the door.
"Human race".
"Next time."
"I am here in person."
The sect leader's voice had begun to fade into the distance.
The dark golden starry sky in Lin Yuan's eyes suddenly contracted.
Following the trajectory of that disappearing gaze, the Extreme Star Soul locked onto it with all its might for the first time.
He doesn't need to catch up with the sect leader's true form.
It's also impossible for them to cross countless black gates and injure the other party right now.
He just needs to leave behind the last bit.
Just a little bit is enough.
In the dark gold starry sky, countless star lines converge into a single point.
It pierced the edge of the giant eye that was about to close.
The sect leader's will was shaken.
A small fragment of a dark, gleaming light was forcibly peeled off.
Lin Yuan opened his arms.
catch.
"Don't leave empty-handed."
Bring your five fingers together.
The fragments were put into the furnace.
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 900000]
boom--!
Inside the coffin, the dark golden light erupted completely.
Behind the Eight Asura Forms, a deep, dark gold star ring emerged.
At the center of the star ring, a dark gold soul core, pulsating like a heart, condensed and took shape.
at the same time.
On the real battlefield.
The Blood Shadow of the Extreme Path, who was guarding outside the bronze coffin, suddenly raised his head.
The cracks on its dark gold mask stopped expanding instantly.
Deep within his chest, a point of dark golden starlight suddenly lit up.
It was initially only the size of a pinhead.
Then, it quickly transformed into a phantom soul core.
thump.
The first thud.
All the dark gold blood patterns within Blood Shadow's body that were on the verge of collapse were simultaneously stabilized.
thump.
The second beat.
The cracks in the mask began to heal.
thump.
The third beat.
For the first time, the true and complete star soul light appeared in Blood Shadow's eyes, which originally only carried the commands of the main body.
The system prompts you to expand.
[Rewards for 900,000 Qualitative Changes]
[Reward: Ultimate Blood Shadow Soul Core]
[Extreme Blood Shadow Soul Core: The Extreme Blood Shadow gains an independent soul core structure]
[Extreme Blood Shadow Soul Core: Significantly increases the ranged combat time and independent battle time of clones]
[Ultimate Blood Shadow Soul Core: The clone can autonomously identify and absorb contamination from behind doors that is below its capacity limit]
[Ultimate Blood Shadow Soul Core: The clone can temporarily absorb a portion of the original's Ultimate Star Soul]
[Ultimate Blood Shadow Soul Core: Even when the main body and the Blood Shadow are separated by a door or a hidden layer, they can still maintain a stable connection]
Inside the coffin.
Lin Yuan slowly opened his eyes.
All the wounds on the eight Asura arms stopped simultaneously.
Deep within his consciousness, the soul core belonging to Blood Shadow formed a truly stable dark gold channel with the Extreme Star Soul.
It is no longer just a connection that is easily worn down by the interlayer behind the door.
And like a second heart.
One remains in the body.
A pulsating aura resides within the Blood Shadow's body.
Lin Yuan could clearly sense the reality of the battlefield.
Feel the presence of the Starry Courtyard.
They sensed that Lin Xiaoya was still quietly guarding inside the courtyard gate.
They also sensed the bronze gatekeeper reaching out to grab the coffin that was about to collapse.
It wanted to forcibly drag the coffin back.
Alternatively, before Lin Yuan breaks the coffin, he could crush the entire coffin along with the person inside.
Lin Yuan's mind stirred.
The command was not transmitted via language.
Instead, it fell directly into the Blood Shadow Soul Core.
"Stop it."
……
in reality.
The bronze gatekeeper's giant hand has already grasped the coffin.
All four fake door openings lit up simultaneously.
It could sense that the sect leader's will had just been cast.
You can also feel that the second anchor projection has been swallowed up by more than half.
We can't delay any longer.
"Shatter the coffin."
"Bury people."
The bronze five fingers began to close.
The entire outer wall of the coffin emitted a terrifying squeezing sound.
Zhou Xuanheng's expression changed drastically:
"It's going to crush the coffin along with the door!"
Marquis Zhenxing immediately brandished his sword.
Qin Zhu also reconstituted the Mountain and River Candle Imprint.
But they are too far apart.
The bronze gatekeeper had already gripped the coffin tightly.
Just now.
The blood-red figure that had been guarding the coffin suddenly moved.
It raised its head.
Beneath the dark gold mask, two points of starlight shone.
Zhou Xuanheng noticed something was wrong immediately.
"The aura of blood..."
"It's different now."
Qin Guanlan also suddenly looked at the blood shadow.
Previously, although Blood Shadow was strong, it always seemed like a combat clone that carried the power of the main body.
But now, standing there, it gives one the illusion that it has truly come to life.
It does not mean the birth of an independent personality.
Instead, it has a core that independently carries the will of the entity.
Bloodstains on the chest.
The Dark Gold Soul Core pulsed once more.
Boom!
Behind it, eight Asura battle scars appeared simultaneously.
Four arms.
Six arms.
Eight arms.
In a split second, Blood Shadow activated the second phase.
The Eightfold Asura Body.
This time, however, Lin Yuan inside the coffin did not need to continuously devote a lot of energy to controlling it.
The Blood Shadow Soul Core autonomously supported the entire battle body.
The bronze gatekeeper rotates its four fake eyes simultaneously.
"A clone..."
"What happened?"
Blood Shadow did not answer.
All eight arms extended simultaneously.
Four hands gripped the bronze gatekeeper's giant, closing fingers.
The other four hands pressed against the outer wall of the coffin.
boom--!
The bronze giant hand, at the half-step King level, was actually held back by Blood Shadow for a moment.
The whole city was shaken.
"Has Bloodface gotten stronger again?"
"Wasn't it almost at its limit before?"
"How could it have suddenly recovered?"
Zhou Xuanheng, however, was looking at the bronze coffin.
He got it.
It wasn't Blood Face that broke through on its own.
Lin Yuan inside the coffin underwent another qualitative change.
Qin Guanlan also whispered:
"He grew stronger inside the coffin."
"Blood Shadow has also become stronger."
Qin Zhu felt a chill run down his spine.
When others are locked in a coffin, they are simply waiting to die.
Lin Yuan was imprisoned, but he was fed another breakthrough.
The bronze goalkeeper's giant hand continued to increase its force.
The Blood Shadow Eight Arms began to tremble.
Although the Soul Core greatly enhances its carrying capacity, it is still not enough to suppress a half-step King on its own.
But it doesn't need to be pressed for too long.
Just a moment.
Inside the coffin.
Lin Yuan had already raised all eight arms.
After the second anchor projection loses its core, the entire gate domain can no longer maintain its complete structure.
Eight dark gold cracks ran through the top and bottom of the coffin wall.
He looked at the bronze door in front of him, which was riddled with holes.
The eight fists were concealed behind him.
The dark gold energy and blood collapsed layer by layer.
The Ultimate Star Soul locks onto the direction of reality.
The Extreme Blood Shadow Soul Core was located outside the coffin, providing him with a fixed coordinate that he would never lose.
No need to search for cracks in the door anymore.
Don't worry about being banished to the wrong mezzanine.
Where is the blood shadow?
Reality is right there.
Lin Yuan unleashed all eight of his arms simultaneously.
"The Great Wilderness is Desolate."
boom--!
Eight dark gold fist imprints merged into one point within the narrow coffin.
That point is extremely small.
But it compressed all its power to the extreme.
The bronze door did not explode outwards.
Instead, it collapsed from the inside first.
a little.
First line.
one side.
The entire coffin door seemed to be sucked in from the inside by a dark gold star, and all the bronze door panels collapsed towards the center at the same time.
Then—
It exploded completely!
outside world.
The bronze gatekeeper is currently locked in a struggle with the blood shadow.
The bronze coffin in his palm suddenly shrank inward.
Its four prosthetic eyes trembled violently at the same time.
"No--"
next moment.
A dark golden beam of light pierced through between its five fingers.
boom!
The bronze giant hand was blasted open from the inside.
Hundreds of fragments from the coffin door, mixed with broken fingernails, flew in all directions.
The hidden compartment behind the door was punched through.
Under the night sky.
Lin Yuan spread his eight arms and stepped out from the shattered bronze coffin.
The dark gold star ring behind him slowly rotated.
Blood Shadow stood beside him.
The soul core in his chest throbbed.
One original form.
A bloody shadow.
Two Asura bodies of the Eight Divisions.
At the same time, he looked up at the bronze gatekeeper.
The bronze gatekeeper took a step back for the first time.
Lin Yuan slowly clenched his eight hands.
"The coffin is nice."
"There's just not enough to eat."
