"I don’t quite understand, why, after already abandoning your flesh and blood, you would want to place a Divine Spring inside a Spiritual Treasure body?"

Mo Xiuwen shook his head vigorously, as if he saw a fellow craftsperson produce a piece of dog crap using the best materials imaginable.

Chasing Soul was genuinely dumbfounded; if I don’t want the Divine Spring, then should I give up my power too? Without strength, how would I drive this body?

His body runs entirely on Spiritual Power; essentially, he is a humanoid Spiritual Treasure, except this Spiritual Treasure contains a soul.

"No, it shouldn’t be like this."

Mo Xiuwen immediately grasped Chasing Soul’s hand; using such a Spiritual Treasure merely as a body is such a waste.

Why not give it the ability to continuously transform weapons? If it were him, he’d undoubtedly find every way to squeeze the utility of this body to its limit.

"Why do you stubbornly adhere to the idea of sticking to a human form?"

Being able to utilize the Divine Spring here, Yama Hall is indeed formidable, but Mo Xiuwen still felt it wasn’t enough.

Perhaps the environmental conditions of both sides differ, or Yama Hall simply doesn’t have Spirit Stones.

"While retaining the Divine Spring, you could still keep another handle! You’re no longer flesh and blood; Spirit Stones can be absorbed by you!"

Imagine, if Chasing Soul’s body not only relied on the Divine Spring to acquire Spiritual Power but also converted Spirit Stones?

If the conversion mechanism he’s researching now can be refined continuously, perhaps it could specifically modify his body to absorb Spirit Stones for recovery?

As long as there are Spirit Stones, Chasing Soul will never face a moment of helplessness, and can even become a war mechanism born for slaughter.

Furthermore, given it’s a Spiritual Treasure body, theoretically, Chasing Soul should be able to withstand energy far beyond a normal load, meaning he could actually unleash power beyond his current Realm.

"Besides cultivating the Divine Spring, just gradually strengthening yourself, you can actually continuously borrow external power too. Although I haven’t touched your kind of Realm, I surmise that this body’s bearing capacity must be extremely strong."

In Mo Xiuwen’s depiction, Chasing Soul should readily transform into a machine of violence, unleashing terrible abilities.

The image of a humanoid fortress lingered in his mind for long, as Chasing Soul’s form continuously changed, even being thrown into a pile of Spirit Stones to let him perform...

Smack, smack!

Mo Xiuwen, lost in thought, couldn’t help but fondle Chasing Soul’s body.

Chasing Soul suddenly felt a chill, not because of Mo Xiuwen’s touch but because of his theory.

This guy completely doesn’t regard him as a human!

Simultaneously, Chasing Soul felt immensely shocked within.

Are you the one from Yama Hall, or am I the one from Yama Hall?

He was inexplicably convinced that this little native was peculiarly fearsome; not only was his talent monstrous, but his boundless imagination was even scarier than over there at Yama Hall.

Yet it couldn’t be denied that he was indeed tempted by what he heard.

Mo Xiuwen painted him a deliciously large and round pie.

"You... can really do it?"

Chasing Soul stared intently at Mo Xiuwen; if it were possible, giving his body to him wouldn’t hurt.

"Currently, I can’t; this is my theory."

Unfortunately, Mo Xiuwen just shook his head and sighed, but quickly grinned.

"However, just grant me time, and I absolutely can achieve it."

"Everything I’ve imagined in my mind, I’ve never failed to create."

After emerging from Celestial Wave Crossing, Chasing Soul was still savoring the big pie Mo Xiuwen drew.

He was equally lost in the blueprint the other person sketched for him, irresistibly drawn.

You could say if it ever came to fruition, he would dare to cross realms and tough it out against cultivators like Xin Zui.

He envisioned it beautifully, and then such an opportunity happened to present itself before him.

Just the timing wasn’t right.

He hadn’t had the chance to wait for Mo Xiuwen to help him actualize it!

"What? You’re going to find trouble with Xin Yin again?"

As Chasing Soul returned to Sea Stone City, he conveniently avoided the cultivators sent to look for him.

But little did he expect, this time Han Yu not only returned but also brought back a large group of Celestial Dao Sect cultivators.

The moment he appeared, upon seeing these people, he almost thought he had strayed into the Celestial Dao Sect’s lair!

This was compounded by Han Yu’s remarks—goodness, you truly are something.

Aside from those from the Celestial Dao Sect, others are still scrambling to hide from Yama Hall, yet you’ve gone all-out, forcing them to withdraw, and you still intend to not let them off; upon encountering them, you must persist until the end, right?

It’s certain that Han Yu approached him wanting to play the signal sabotage trick once again.

So young and yet already so insidious.

Agree? Why not agree? Su Xiaoxiao’s group had a cultivation level blatantly high enough to scare him, naturally enough to frighten Xin Yin.

If it can trap him to death, why not do it?

After the matter was settled, Han Yu’s gaze at Chasing Soul suddenly turned oddly peculiar.

"I don’t know if it’s an illusion; why do I suddenly feel you’ve become handsome?"

Han Yu smacked his lips, the more he viewed Chasing Soul, the stranger he seemed.

Everything felt sharply defined, seemed full of vitality.

Overall, an immense change occurred, yet for some reason he couldn’t articulate exactly what?

It was only when Chasing Soul’s two eyebrows slightly twitched that Han Yu suddenly understood.

"Indeed, your face has become proper..."

That statement truly left Chasing Soul unsure of how to respond.

"Normal, it’s normal, not proper!"

"That youngster with the surname Mo concocted you the same way, also a monster."

Chasing Soul revealed a smile, evidently satisfied.

...

Xin Yin’s wandering path ultimately sought slowly towards the sea territory.

Fortunately, New Sea Stone City was intentionally built amidst the mountains back then, or it probably would have been discovered ages ago.

But given Xin Yin’s current direction, it seems discovery is merely a matter of time.

The further he moved away from Lei Wang and the others, the more fiercely Xin Yin cursed in his heart.

Likely, the hierarchy squeezing the lower tiers is Yama Hall’s tradition; now he just thinks of completing this job and taking his people far away from them.

By doing his duty well, he can earn merit in the Holy Church.

Following Lei Wang and the others would only lead to discomfort, and possibly getting treated like a workhorse.

Even worse is that now the Five Envoys’ conflict is already glaringly obvious.

If he stays behind, he’d constantly find himself stuck in the middle, offending one side regardless of where he stands.

To avoid offending both sides, the best strategy is to stay far away.

Otherwise, prepare to be spat on by both sides.

While Xin Yin was lost in thought, suddenly many Spiritual Power explosions occurred in the high sky at one point.

The eerie Spiritual Power gathered into different colors; the unique Spiritual Power of Yama Hall’s Cultivation Techniques cannot be faked no matter what.

Thus, the scene left Su Xiaoxiao and the others utterly bewildered.

Can it even be played like this?

How in the hell can you trust signals after this?

If you trust them, encountering situations like this, you’d die without knowing why.

Especially in circumstances with traitors involved, it’s certainly a guaranteed trap.

Seeing Han Yu and Chasing Soul covertly finishing these actions and then skillfully hiding themselves,

this kind of thing was done so routinely; it’s probably not their first time doing it.

Han Yu likely never imagined that the group hidden behind the scenes, upon seeing their antics, was in the throes of a trust crisis regarding signals.

Notably, a team of cultivators, about a dozen from various directions, had started rushing over first...
