  "What's going on?" The young man in white clothes looked at Lie Teng calmly and then turned to the middle-aged man beside him, saying in a low voice.

  "The aura of that soul beast has appeared around here." The middle-aged man said with a furrowed brow, his divine sense enveloping the surroundings. As soon as the soul beast appears, he can keenly capture it and rush to this place in an instant. What puzzles him is not the speed at which the soul beast disappears, but why it always appears around this small gathering of spiritual energy on the fourth layer of the Gathering Spirit Tower.

  "Go!" Without waiting for the middle-aged man to think more, his divine sense suddenly felt the aura of the soul beast again, and he quickly took the young man away.

  Lieteng stared at the empty space where the two had disappeared, his eyes wide with astonishment. The aura of a soul beast? Could it be that the little guy was actually a soul beast? Yes, he must be a soul beast; otherwise, how could his own soul power have no effect on him? Only a soul beast could devour one's soul power... but why didn't this soul beast attack him? Was it because he had cultivated the "Soul Refining Technique"? Lieteng's heart began to beat faster and faster. If that was the case, then... did this soul beast pose no threat to him at all?

  In a flash, Lie Teng saw those pitiful eyes again, and the little guy appeared once more. However, this time, Lie Teng didn't worry too much. After a moment's thought, he released five Soul Shackles from his fingertips. Sure enough, the little guy's body swayed, and it actually swallowed the five Soul Shackles. Afterwards, it looked at him with those pitiful eyes again.

  "This little guy likes to swallow soul power?" Looking at this little guy, Lie Teng's heart was in full bloom, and immediately, the five soul guides flew out again, instantly swallowed by the little guy, continuing to look pitifully at Lie Teng.

  "It's really like that." Lie Teng let out a sigh of relief, as long as this little guy didn't attack him, it was fine. However, Lie Teng wouldn't continue to send out his soul summoning for the little guy to devour, after all, this was an ancient battlefield, and they might encounter danger at any moment. Just as Lie Teng was thinking about this, the little guy suddenly disappeared again in a strange manner, and before Lie Teng could react, the two people who had left reappeared above him.

  However, this time, both of their gazes were fixed on Lie Tong. If it was once or twice, it could be considered a coincidence, but the third time made them suspect Lie Tong. The white-clothed youth's gaze was coldly fixed on Lie Tong as he asked in a chilly tone, "Can you see any spiritual beasts around?"

  Lieteng's heart skipped a beat, weren't they looking for that little guy? If it were before, Lieteng would have explained the situation long ago. But at this time, since he was certain that the soul beast posed no threat to himself, Lieteng naturally wouldn't say anything. In fact, he was also a bit afraid; if he told them and the soul beast happened to hear about it, wouldn't it vent its anger on him? After all, a soul beast that even Dan-stage strong practitioners couldn't deal with must have already possessed spiritual intelligence.

  At once, Lie Teng pretended to be confused and shook his head.

  "Elder, I think there's little connection between the Soul Beast and this person." The young man in white said in a low voice.

  A middle-aged man stared at Lie Tong with his eyes fixed on him, as if he wanted to see through what Lie Tong was thinking. The aura of pressure emanating from him made Lie Tong's blood boil, and his face turned pale. After a long time, the middle-aged man spoke in a low voice: "Appearing around this person three times in a row, is it just a coincidence?"

  Suddenly, this oppressive aura surged violently and enveloped him, his breathing became rapid in an instant, and his body trembled violently. If he hadn't clenched his teeth to hold on, he would have probably knelt down by now. "What a terrifying aura!" Lie Tong thought with trepidation.

  Suddenly, this momentum strengthened again, causing the trembling Lie Teng to shake all over, and he could no longer bear the terrifying pressure. His feet felt a sharp pain and he directly knelt on the ground. A thunder-like sound exploded beside Lie Teng's ears, shaking him so much that he felt his blood boiling, and he couldn't suppress the massive amount of blood that spurted out of his mouth. Not only that, but his eyes, nose, and all seven orifices in his head also burst with blood. This voice, which contained powerful cultivation, shook Lie Teng so hard that he bled from all seven orifices, and his dantian almost shattered.

  "No!!" He let out a loud and painful howl, his anger almost reaching the sky, glaring furiously at the middle-aged man in mid-air.

  "Hmph!" The middle-aged man let out a cold snort, which was like thunder shaking the air again. How could Lie Teng endure the cold snort of a second-layer strong practitioner like Dan Yin? He fainted directly and fell to the ground. Meanwhile, the middle-aged man and the white-clothed youth didn't even spare him a glance from start to finish.

  After glancing around, the middle-aged man said indifferently: "It seems that the Soul Beast and this child are not closely related." If they were related, the Soul Beast would have appeared.

  The white-clothed youth glanced down at Lie Teng, who was lying motionless on the ground, and said calmly, "In that case, this person has no need to live anymore." Immediately, the spiritual sword on his back rang out and automatically flew out, transforming into a beam of light that struck Lie Teng below.

  The middle-aged man did not stop him, but instead looked at the white-clothed youth with a praising gaze. Since he had already severely injured this person, it would be better to directly kill him off. After all, who could predict what kind of achievements this young master of the fourth layer of the Gathering Spirit Realm would have in the future? If his achievements were not too great, that would be fine, but if he had some accomplishments, he would undoubtedly become an enemy of the Myriad Sword Sect. The white-clothed youth's actions could be described as being overly cautious and hesitant to take action. After all, in the world of cultivation, nothing was predictable, and anyone could be a threat.

  A low, muffled sound of "peng", the spiritual sword directly pierced through Lie Teng's back, and then transformed into a ray of light that returned to the young man's back. The young man looked at Lie Teng with a calm expression and said, "Leave."

  Lieteng's body lay motionless on the ground, the white-clothed youth's blow was indeed fatal, and it directly pierced Lieteng's Danhai. However, unlike others, Lieteng's soul did not show any signs of dispersing.

  Not long after, a small figure slowly floated beside Lie Teng. His black eyes looked pitifully at Lie Teng, and as he stared at the motionless Lie Teng, his eyes revealed an expression of confusion.

  "Chee-chee..." The little guy let out a cry like a small bird, as if calling out to Lie Ting.

  Lieteng remained motionless as before, the little guy sank into thought for a moment, and then disappeared again. However, this time Lieteng's body also mysteriously vanished into the ground.

  Tens of miles away.

  "Has the Soul Beast's aura completely disappeared?" The middle-aged man asked with a furrowed brow, while the young man in white was also extremely surprised. He calmly said: "If it can't be found, then forget about it, help me break through to the sixth layer of the Gathering Spirit!"

  A middle-aged man glanced at the youth in white and said in a low voice, "Leng Ye, do you know how powerful this soul beast is? It must have just been born not long ago, but its strength is much greater than those cultivated by the Driving Spirit Sect. Even compared to that naturally born soul beast, it's stronger. This is an ancient forbidden land, the battlefield of ancient times. The soul beasts condensed here are more terrifying than in other places. And over the years, the Driving Spirit Sect dared to confront my Ten Thousand Swords Sect head-on mainly because they had that naturally born soul beast."

  "How can the Soul Beast be so powerful?" asked the young man in white, Cold Night, with a look of astonishment.

  "Uh, it's said that the main reason for a soul beast's strength is where it was born. Like the powerful soul beast of the Driving Spirit Sect, it was born from the ruins of a large sect that was annihilated countless years ago in the cultivation world. And its power is comparable to that of a sixth-layer Void Fragmentation strongman." The middle-aged man said in a low voice.

  "How is that possible? This Soul Beast is even stronger than the other one?" Leng Ye's expression changed greatly, and he exclaimed in shock. As the young master of the Wan Jian Sect, what did a Shattered Void strong expert mean to him? His sect didn't have many either.

  "Even if not now, once this soul beast matures, its strength will necessarily be stronger than the one from the Driving Spirit Sect. It's already strong enough that I can't sense it, and at this point, it's comparable to a four-tier fourth-level spirit beast." The middle-aged man said with a serious face.

  Suddenly, the middle-aged man's eyes flashed with a sharp light, he looked forward, his expression turned cold, and said in a low voice: "They've also come? It seems that we need to call upon the strong ones within our sect. No matter what, this Soul Beast must be obtained. Even if it can't be obtained, it must be strangled to death."
