During the battle between Gu He's soul clone and the Soul Hall Vice Master, his true body had also been observing the Vice Master's soul clone. However, his attention had mainly been focused on the Vice Master's use of energy and his fighting techniques, with little regard for anything else.
Now that the battle had temporarily come to an end, Gu He discovered that after the aftershocks of their clash spread outward, the medicinal herbs at the edge of the wasteland had begun showing signs of withering. This discovery inevitably made him connect it to the Soul Hall Vice Master's purpose in coming here.
"Hehe, the power carried by this soul clone of mine can corrupt and invade things with lower energy levels. As long as they are tainted by my power, whether medicinal herbs or anything else, they will gradually lose their vitality and eventually become a pile of trash. Moreover, even experts of the same level would need a great deal of time to purify my power, let alone after fighting me for so long. My power has already spread hundreds of miles away. Perhaps before you can cleanse it all, the Medicine Realm will already be destroyed." Seeing Gu He's furious expression, the Soul Hall Vice Master laughed loudly, his tone brimming with smug satisfaction.
Given the nature of his power, coupled with the fact that Gu He's cultivation was no higher than his, it would be exceedingly difficult for Gu He to extract and contain the power he had dispersed throughout the heavens and empty space, much less completely purify and eradicate it.
Gu He's soul clone in the Medicine Realm directly merged into space, tearing open a massive spatial rift within the Medicine Realm. Gu He's true body entered through it with a cold expression.
