Bibi Dong's mind exploded.
Countless streams of formal knowledge about the Spirit Binding Method began pouring in.
In that instant, Bibi Dong felt an irresistible, tremendous force wrench her consciousness out of reality and plunge it into a boundless, fathomless sea of consciousness.
The almost cold rhythms of the Spirit Binding Method's laws, which touched upon the fundamental rules of the soul, flashed with dazzling light in her mind.
Bibi Dong's consciousness became utterly engrossed.
As a peerless powerhouse with twin martial souls and an inheritor of the Rakshasa Godhood who had stepped halfway across the threshold of god rank, Bibi Dong had already begun to make preliminary contact with the world's rules and laws.
In her established understanding, gods stood above mortals because they commanded higher-level "divine power" and "divine authority."
Powers involving laws and rules were likewise something only gods could wield.
But at that moment, the Spirit Binding Method pouring into her mind tore that established understanding to shreds!
Under the fundamental rules governing the Douluo Continent, when living beings died, their souls either dispersed into the world, gathered within soul rings, or became lingering thoughts filled with resentment and malice. Soul masters seeking to resist their interference could only suppress them with greater spiritual power or forcibly deal with them using soul power.
The Spirit Binding Method, however, directly reached the level of the rules governing souls.
This was precisely because of its underlying operating principle.
It was not an application of energy, but an application of the rules of the soul.
Thus, whether it faced a ten-year wandering spirit or the violent soul essence of a ten-thousand-year or hundred-thousand-year soul beast, as long as it located the portion that constituted the "spirit," it had found an anchor through which to apply those rules.
No matter
