Soul-Concentrating Spike

Xing Chang's face was ashen.

He knelt on the ground, pleading desperately.

"Yu Da, I beg you, for the sake of our years of master-servant relationship, please don't kill me."

Yu Da sneered, "Master-servant relationship? When have we ever had any relationship? I'm nothing but your dog. You treat me like a servant, summoning me at will and dismissing me at will. When have you ever given me the slightest bit of respect?"

Xing Chang said, "You were originally just a low-level Rogue Cultivator, of humble status and mediocre talent. I took pity on you and let you stay by my side, and I also gave you Foundation Establishment and various spiritual materials. Otherwise, with your talent and status, how could you have successfully Foundation Establishment?"

Yu Da, "I have served you for twenty or thirty years, and I have long since repaid this debt of gratitude."

"Yu Da, please don't kill me! I can give you anything you want: Spirit Stone, Spirit Artifact, spirit materials, pills, Cultivation Method... everything the Xing Family gave me, I can give you, just please don't kill me."

Xing Chang crawled on his stomach to Yu Da's feet, pleading pitifully.

Yu Da kicked Xing Chang away.

How could he possibly let Xing Chang go? He had been by Xing Chang's side for over twenty years; how could he not know the other man's character?

Xing Chang is a self-important, but actually mediocre, incompetent, and narrow-minded person.

When the Tidal Demon broke through the <Four-Direction Demon-Subduing Formation> and Yu Da abandoned Xing Chang and fled, Yu Da already had no way out.

If Xing Chang were allowed to return alive, given his vengeful nature, Yu Da would only face Yu Da pursuit and death.

"I can open my Sea of Consciousness and place Soul-Locking Curse on you, so that you will obey me forever."

"Please don't kill me, please don't kill me."

"I don't want to die."

"Mother, where are you? Please come and save your child..."

Xing Chang kept pleading, and as he spoke, he suddenly broke down in tears.

Snot and tears streamed down his face, soaking him completely.

Song Wen, who was feigning serious injury, glanced at Xing Chang, his eyes revealing undisguised surprise.

Xing Chang is actually so despicable!

Could a Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator really do something like this?

What Song Wen said to Xing Chang earlier was only half true and half false.

Elder Qi did indeed die at the hands of the Tidal Demon, but the Tidal Demon also died at the hands of Song Wen.

Song Wen performed a soul search on Elder Qi.

He obtained a lot of useful information from Elder Qi's memories.

Firstly.

Song Wen had a general understanding of the distribution of cultivation forces in the Sea of Disorder.

The five largest cultivation forces in the Sea of Disorder are three Lineage and two sects.

The three Lineage refer to: the Xing Family, the Jing Family, Cui Family.

The two sects are Two Forms Sect and Limitless Island.

The Cui Family and Limitless Island are demonic forces, while the other three are righteous sects.

Unlike the hostile relationship between the righteous and demonic paths in the Sea of Disorder, the two sides interact closely in the Heavenly Origin Continent.

This is because the righteous and demonic paths of humanity share a common enemy: the demon race of the chaotic outer seas.

The Demon Race frequently invades the Inner Sea, slaughtering cultivators and mortals, and seizing resources and living space.

Especially the birds among the Demon Race, they cannot fly in the sky forever, they always need a place to land.

In the Outer Sea, islands are scarce, and those rich in Spiritual Qi are even rarer, which greatly limits the reproduction of avian Demon Beast.

They are eager to invade the Inner Sea and occupy more islands.

Under pressure from the Demon Beast race, the five major forces, together with other cultivation forces in the Sea of Disorder and a large number of Rogue Cultivator, formed the Starsea Alliance to jointly resist the Demon Race.

Secondly.

Song Wen learned about Xing Chang.

Xing Chang came from an extraordinary background and possessed exceptional talent, having Seventh-Grade Spiritual Root.

Even in the Xing Family, a place teeming with geniuses, in terms of talent alone, while he may not be an exceptionally rare prodigy, he is certainly one of the best.

Xing Chang's mother, Shan Yue, was one of his father Xing Gaohan's many concubines.

Shan Yue was exceptionally beautiful, possessing a beauty that could shame the moon and flowers. However, being of mortal origin and lacking the support of a powerful Lineage, she was not Xing Gaohan.

After Xing Chang was found to have the talent of Seventh-Grade Spiritual Root, Xing Chang Shan Yue placed high hopes on him, hoping that her son could stand out in the Xing Family and become an outstanding person.

A mother's status rises with her son's!

As a mother, her status in the Xing Family naturally rose accordingly.

However, Shan Yue was originally just a young lady from a respectable family in the mortal world. By chance, she caught the eye of Xing Gaohan and was brought back to the Xing Family.

She had never experienced the cruelty of the Cultivation World, and her knowledge was ultimately shallow. She tried to cultivate Xing Chang using the methods of ordinary scholars and scions of noble Aristocratic Clan, which ultimately led him astray.

With the support of the Xing Family's abundant resources, Xing Chang's cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, reaching the Foundation Establishment Late Stage before the age of forty.

However, having grown up with Shan Yue since childhood, he is extremely fragile and immature in temperament.

As for Elder Qi, he was Xing Chang's personal bodyguard assigned by the Xing Family, and he shared Xing Chang's fate.

If Xing Chang dies, Elder Qi will not live much longer either.

That's why Elder Qi risked his life to protect Xing Chang.

Thirdly.

Song Wen learned about the purpose of the Xing Chang's hunt for the Tidal Demon, as well as the function of the Earth Spirit Pill.

The Xing Family possesses a unique Cultivation Method called "Soul-Concentrating Spike," which is Xing Family exclusive Secret Method.

<Soul-Concentrating Spike> is a mental attack Technique Method.

It condenses the cultivator's Divine Sense, transforming it into an invisible sharp blade to attack the opponent's Sea of Consciousness.

To cultivate the <Soul-Concentrating Spike> technique, one needs the Earth Spirit Pill in conjunction with it to even begin the initial stages.

The flesh and soul of the Tidal Demon are the main ingredients for refining the Earth Spirit Pill.

Tidal Demon are extremely rare, and most of them live in the Outer Sea, making them difficult to find.

The Xing Chang could not persuade Golden Core cultivator to come, and dared not venture into the Outer Sea to search for the Tidal Demon.

He had been searching for information about the Tidal Demon for years, and finally obtained information that there was a Tidal Demon on the edge of the Inner Sea.

Therefore, despite his overconfidence, he insisted on coming to hunt down the Tidal Demon, disregarding Elder Qi's advice.

Song Wen was quite interested in "The Soul-Concentrating Spike".

The Soul-Concentrating Spike technique is divided into three levels, corresponding to the Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul realms, respectively.

Xing Chang did not possess the <Soul-Concentrating Spike> Cultivation Method.

They went out to hunt down the Tidal Demon, brought it back to the Xing Family, and refined it into the Earth Spirit Pill.

This is a Xing Family for the Lineage. Only those who complete the trial can obtain the first level of the <Soul-Concentrating Spike> Cultivation Method.

So, Song Wen used the Divine Sense imprint he had left on Xing Chang to track him down.

He pretended to be seriously injured and approached Xing Chang, intending to devise a plan for the future.

The appearance of Yu Da was unexpected by Song Wen.

However, this gave him the opportunity to gain Xing Chang's trust.

"Yu Da, Young Master Xing is a noble son of the Xing Family. Since Young Master Xing is willing to let you place the Soul-Locking Curse on him and obey your orders from now on, you should spare Young Master Xing's life. In this way, you can obtain a continuous stream of benefits from Young Master Xing. If you kill Young Master Xing and seize his storage ring, it will be no different from draining the pond to catch all the fish," Song Wen said.

Yu Da stared at Song Wen and said coldly.

"Foolish! You think you can control the Xing Family's descendants with a mere Soul-Locking Curse? You underestimate the Xing Family."

"Once the Xing Family discovers the Soul-Locking Curse, they won't care about the life or death of a Foundation Establishment cultivator. They will use the Soul-Locking Curse it and eliminate me directly."

"Wei Ding, I'll give you a chance. Go and kill Xing Chang, and I might let you leave alive."

Song Wen said, "Yu Da, don't try to deceive me. You're trying to cover up your crime of harming Young Master Xing; you're not going to let me leave alive."

Yu Da, "You're actually a smart person, but it's a pity you have poor judgment, choosing to follow such a good-for-nothing as Xing Chang."
