"Ssss..."

The head of Snake Changsheng's spirit body was sliced off, and a thick black smoke erupted, surging straight into the sky.

It was evident how massive his soul energy was.

His body and head were rapidly shrinking.

However, he was still not dead, letting out an incredibly wretched scream, "Zhang Bin, aren't you afraid of death?"

At this point, he was utterly defeated, and even self-destruction wouldn't be very powerful.

Because too much soul energy had leaked out.

If he were in the outside world, not to mention having his head cut off, even if his spirit body were chopped into pieces, he could instantly recover.

But here, in Zhang Bin's Soul Palace, there was a tremendous suppression effect on his soul energy.

And his spirit was separated, leaving him with no divine skills at all.

With his head chopped off, he naturally became extraordinarily weak.

Yet, he was very unwilling, not understanding how he ended up in such a state, utterly confused.

"Hahaha... Fool, although you are cunning, you have one colossal flaw, which is your fear of death, your unwillingness to die." Zhang Bin laughed, "Thus, you lost the chance to perish with me. But I seized upon your weakness, heavily injuring you. Of course, it's mainly because of your wickedness, doomed to die today. I will refine your soul energy, absorb everything of yours, and then completely obliterate the Youming Sect."

"Fear of death often leads to death, while unafraid of death might leave a sliver of life. I was wise all my life, foolish for a moment. But Zhang Bin, don't get complacent. The Sect Leader will avenge me, and our Youming Sect will certainly kill you with so many experts. Soon, you will be utterly annihilated, no longer existing." Snake Changsheng shouted venomously.

He then grabbed his headless body, dragging the thick smoke, insanely charging toward Zhang Bin.

Evidently, it was about to explode in front of Zhang Bin.

He was well aware that the Moon Palace was very sturdy, and his self-destruction was unlikely to destroy it.

Only by severely injuring Zhang Bin's spirit body would be a good solution.

It might let the Sect Leader spot a flaw, then kill Zhang Bin.

"Fool, come on, come kill me."

Zhang Bin, with a disdainful sneer, swiftly floated, rapidly circling, just slightly faster than Snake Changsheng, about three meters apart.

Snake Changsheng was almost infuriated to death; exploding couldn't harm Zhang Bin, yet not exploding led to the quick dissipation of soul energy.

Unwilling, he employed the most magical secret technique to accelerate.

"Woo..."

His body cut through the air with a piercing sound.

He truly appeared like a headless vicious ghost.

Making one's skin crawl.

"Take this..."

Zhang Bin's sword suddenly hurled, and with a whoosh, pierced Snake Changsheng's thigh.

Flying out from the other side.

Pfff...

The two wounds on Snake Changsheng's thigh leaked out energy rapidly.

Turning into billowing thick smoke.

"Ah..."

Snake Changsheng let out an unspeakably miserable scream.

He stumbled to the ground.

"Die."

Zhang Bin, circling around, grabbed the Soul Sword, then fiercely hurled it again, penetrating Snake Changsheng's heart accurately.

Of course, this was merely the heart of the spirit body, not the physical body.

"Ah..."

Snake Changsheng let out an even more miserable scream.

Then his body deflated rapidly like a leaking balloon.

Even if he wanted to self-destruct, he couldn't.

Because the body was leaking everywhere.

"Hehehe..."

Zhang Bin wickedly smiled, crazily devouring and refining the opponent's soul energy while reading the opponent's soul memories.

"I am unwilling, truly unwilling..."

Snake Changsheng let out an unspeakably resentful voice.

Finally fell completely silent.

Because his spirit body utterly disintegrated, turning into soul energy.

Refined and absorbed by Zhang Bin.

And the situation in the Innate Essence Palace was almost the same, nothing different.

Snake Changsheng's spirit was also killed by Zhang Bin in the same method, turned into a peculiar energy.

"Gagaga... The gains are quite sizable. Just a bit too risky."

Zhang Bin snickered in his heart.

It took about five hours to completely refine Snake Changsheng's soul energy.

He felt his soul had become many times stronger.

He felt a sense of getting rich, as if he went from having trouble eating to being a billionaire.

Moreover, he read most of the opponent's memories.

This would be of tremendous help in destroying Youming.

However, now was not the time to organize the opponent's memories, but to fall asleep immediately, cultivating Pure Heart Mystique in his dreams, purifying his soul with Xiao Qing's help.

Because he felt that even though his soul became much stronger, it had become impure.

This is a colossal flaw.

If not purified immediately, it would greatly impact him, possibly polluting his spirit body.

Observing in the dream, it was indeed so; his body was full of thick dust and filthy things.

Making his scalp tingle.

Knowing that Snake Changsheng had in the past obtained several cauldrons, refining their soul energy.

Various soul energies cross-infected like viruses.

Naturally, it became impure.

Perhaps remaining impure forever.

"Master, this pollution is just too terrible. Fortunately, you have the Pure Heart Mystique, and luckily I can help you," Xiao Qing exclaimed, "Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable."

With Xiao Qing's help, it took three hours to clean out the dust and virus-like stuff, and the soul gained an initial purification.

Zhang Bin felt much more comfortable.

He began cultivating the Hundred Tribulations Divine Skill, bombarding his Moon Palace with Orange Thunder.

The Thunder naturally penetrated the Moon Palace, acting upon his spirit.

Continuing to purify the soul.

This is a mandatory procedure for a Living Ghost to reside in a cauldron, which can eradicate residual consciousness in the cauldron's soul energy.

Then Zhang Bin figured out a way to deplete his spiritual power completely.

Once again laid in the Teleportation Array to sleep for two hours.

He was not worried about other Living Ghosts coming over.

Because now, he could be said to be Snake Changsheng.

Residing in the cauldron isn't that easy, requiring over half a day to complete all procedures without significant aftereffects.

When Zhang Bin woke up, he found his spiritual power fully restored, and it became much stronger.

After all, a strong soul can derive potent spiritual power.

He then continued cultivating Pure Heart Mystique, with stronger spiritual power naturally sensing more fine dust in the soul.

With Xiao Qing's help, it was once again completely purified.

Zhang Bin wore a beaming smile because he felt his soul was nearly as pure as before.

But much stronger than before.

This was a revolutionary change.

Now, I should be able to cultivate the third layer of Tyrant Gold Divine Skill!

Zhang Bin enthusiastically shouted in his heart.
