Long ago, Wu Yuan hadn't understood why Houtu Ancestral Witch had been able to slay a Supreme Saint of the same level.
But now, he understood a little.
"The most heaven-defying thing about Eternity Experts is the countless marks and imprints scattered throughout endless spacetime," Wu Yuan murmured. "Physical attacks can destroy their bodies, but they can't eradicate the source."
"Only by tracing them through the unseen threads of fate can one find all of their marks and imprints, then wipe them out completely."
Spirit soul attacks had their drawbacks. For instance, if an attack failed, it was useless; it was hard to affect the opponent again. Physical attacks, by contrast, could build up small injuries into serious wounds and wear an opponent down to death.
But spirit soul attacks also had their unique strengths.
"Even now, in the eyes of countless River Lives, I'm probably an incredibly heaven-defying existence." Wu Yuan thought silently. "My Qi Refining True Body is likely the most terrifying spirit soul cultivator among River Lives in history."
It was indeed terrifying.
It was rare for a River Life to create an Eternal Secret Skill of the spirit soul type, let alone open up a Dream World.
"More than a hundred million years of cultivation."
"Now, with just a thought, I could probably make every Ruler fall into a trance. Not many Immortals could resist."
"What if I were fighting an ordinary Monarch?"
"Following the connection to their avatars and true bodies, as long as we were in the same spacetime, I could probably kill their true bodies directly across endless spacetime." Wu Yuan pondered. "Against a Saint, my Qi Refining True Body could first use a Spirit Soul Secret Technique, then my Body Refining True Body could follow up with a physical attack."
