Liu Zhi's strongest ability in the undead arts was Soul Extraction, so he had the clearest understanding of how souls were transformed.
At a glance, he could tell that the tree sphere's soul was spreading in all directions.
It wasn't spreading because the soul had been shattered. Rather, it was dispersing on its own. Liu Zhi immediately understood: his opponent intended to turn his soul into fragments and place them inside other elves to make his escape easier.
Some powerful vampires could do the same thing.
They could turn themselves into countless tiny bats. As long as even one escaped, they would have gotten away.
Liu Zhi couldn't use this technique, but that didn't mean he didn't understand it.
The moment he saw his opponent preparing to flee, he sprang into action.
If his opponent hadn't been planning to escape by dispersing his soul, Liu Zhi wouldn't have used Soul Extraction.
But things were different now. The scattered fragments were weak, and Liu Zhi easily seized some of them.
Liu Zhi realized that, so he could piece the souls back together later, the elf had left connections between the fragments when he divided his soul.
Perhaps he was confident in his ability to control his own soul.
But that kind of confidence depended on who you were dealing with.
