One of the three Lord of Souls were still on guard against Leo was instantly enveloped by the twelve domains.
This was the first time I'd ever experienced so much negativity weighing on me; my guarded expression instantly turned into terror and panic.
His first thought was to use his own energy to shake off these negative states, but it had no effect whatsoever. In fact, the energy he released was absorbed by the negative states surrounding him.
I wanted to run, but my speed was less than half of what it used to be. Looking at that 280-meter-tall, grinning Earth Giant...
He shouted at his two companions without hesitation.
"Help me"
Several attacks slammed into the Earth Giant that had broken the sound barrier and arrived before them in an instant. These were attacks from the three Level-Four Lord of Souls; they didn't believe anyone could completely ignore their attacks.
A rapid, continuous barrage of attacks—this was the same continuous attack method they had used to defeat three World Lord before.
No one could withstand so many attacks.
But the way the Earth Giant dealt with it sent a chill down their spines.
The Earth Giant's method of dealing with the attack was very simple: it was enveloped in more than a dozen protective shields and charged straight at the attackers without dodging.
It felt like what hit me wasn't some terrifying attack, just a light drizzle on a sunny day.
He raised his staff, which resembled a towering tree, and smashed the Lord of Souls, who was shrouded in the power of the domain, into a bloody pulp.
A bound soul appeared; this was the soul of the Lord of Souls. Within the domain, there were two new domains specifically designed to target souls.
The soul imprisonment made it difficult for him to move, and he was even constantly being torn apart by the spatial power of teleportation, trying to send him to an unknown and terrifying place.
The Level-Four Lord of Souls no longer has a physical body, only a soul, and is struggling against the two domains targeting the soul.
It stared at the Earth Giant with malevolent eyes, wishing it could skin the Earth Giant Earth Giant alive and drink its blood.
The Lord of Souls must be killed twice to kill him; only then will he have a chance to survive.
Moreover, unlike other life forms whose strength diminishes greatly when their physical bodies are gone, they retain over 90% of their strength even when only their souls remain.
The other two Lord of Souls relentlessly attacked the Earth Giant, their attacks never ceasing.
Soul attacks, energy attacks, and even melee combat—these attacks were intended to interrupt the Earth Giant's attacks on its allies.
The Earth Giant simply let the attacks hit him, completely ignoring the two of them, treating them like buzzing flies.
It didn't matter that the multiple protective shields on his body were torn apart; his powerful body was impenetrable anyway.
Their attacks even absorb energy from the Indestructible Body, accelerating the recovery of their internal mana.
The Earth Giant stared intently at the bound soul before him, its eyes radiating an eerie light that sent chills down the spine of the Lord of Souls was now nothing but a soul.
This chilling feeling, which shouldn't have been present in the soul, inexplicably arose under the gaze of the Earth Giant.
In the eyes of the Earth Giant, he saw not a desire to kill him, but a toy, a dissection, a terrifying gaze that wanted to examine him thoroughly from the inside out.
The Lord of Souls don't understand the importance of experiments to a wizard. If they did, they would understand the burning desire in Leo's eyes—the kind that wants to place him on the experimental table!
The sound of thunder resounded.
The attack easily enveloped the bound soul, and bolts of lightning, intensifying the attack, covered the soul's entire body.
It seemed as if the cruelest punishment was inflicting the most agonizing torment on this soul.
He was also resisting, but his strongest attacks were no match for the Earth Giant in front of him. He was like an insect trapped in a bottle, being toyed with at will by the Earth Giant controlled the bottle.
The Earth Giant was chanting incantations in a low voice, its mouth obscuring everything, while its hand was drawing various wizarding runes in the air.
Runes appeared, shooting towards the soul shrouded in lightning.
Amidst the wailing of his soul, his soul fluctuations rapidly weakened, corresponding to the disappearance of his agonizing screams.
The souls are not dead, but are becoming numb, just like the puppet army they control below, losing all cognition and memory.
"Wizard, what are you doing?"
One of the Lord of Souls attacking Leo looked at everything before him and questioned Leo in terror.
He didn't feel the death of his companion's soul; he felt more as if his companion's soul was being erased of all consciousness.
Although he didn't know Leo's specific purpose in doing this, the situation was very similar to their methods of controlling puppets.
Seeing how Leo treated his companion's soul, the two Lord of Souls attacked even more frequently, practically using the Earth Giant as a punching bag.
No matter where they struck Leo, Leo remained unmoved, his eyes fixed on the soul whose consciousness was being erased.
Finally, after several minutes, the soul that had long since ceased to speak or show any emotion vanished.
Is he dead?
No,
This soul is not dead at all.
"You erased Kakajia's will, you imprisoned Kakajia's soul."
The two Lord of Souls had been attacking Leo for several minutes, fled far away the moment their souls vanished in Leo's hands. They showed no further intention of attacking Leo. A chilling scream escaped their lips.
"You guys are really smart. Don't worry, you'll be reunited with your companions soon. I've reserved seats for you all."
The Earth Giant grinned broadly. This was the first time he had used his unique soul magic, and he hadn't expected to succeed on his first try, especially with the soul of a Level-Four Lord of Souls. This was a rare and precious thing.
The Lord of Souls saw the Earth Giant's smile and felt as if he were being targeted by a demon. Usually, they were the ones toying with the souls of those lower beings, but they never expected that one day someone would be toying with their souls right in front of them.
Before the Earth Giant could even raise its hand, it vanished instantly, disappearing from sight in a flash due to its overwhelming terror.
They were no longer able to fight Leo, and escaping became their last straw.
The Earth Giant did not give chase, but instead turned its attention to the three Lord of Souls who were ganging up on the Boiling Blood Giant.
There are so many Lord of Souls in the Manluo World, and they're all Level 4. Without Level 5 Soul Masters, this place is practically paradise.
It is the best place to collect souls.
In Leo's eyes, every life here is his resource.
It doesn't matter if they run away; as long as they don't leave this world, they'll eventually end up in your pocket.
The three Lord of Souls, who were restrained by the Boiling Blood Giant, witnessed Leo's evil methods in their entirety and experienced firsthand Leo power.
Having been relentlessly attacked by two Lord of Souls for several minutes without sustaining a single injury, such a being...
We are no match for them; we need to plan carefully.
In an instant, the three Lord of Souls abandoned the Boiling Blood Giant, who had already been slightly injured by them, and chose to do the same thing as their other two companions, turning around and running away.
But Leo was prepared. He locked his gaze on the slowest runner, and with a light step, he appeared behind him.
There are six Lord of Souls in total; Leo wouldn't be satisfied with just capturing one.
There must be at least two!
Tap your finger lightly,
The twelve domains had already trapped this unfortunate Lord of Souls. Thunderous sounds rang out, followed by heart-wrenching screams.
At the very end of his life, the Lord of Souls used all his strength to attack the Earth Giant, but he couldn't even get the Earth Giant to blink.
The four Lord of Souls had already run far away, stopped at the edge of the horizon. They could be seen as four small black dots, standing there, listening to their companion's painful screams, but making no move to come to their rescue.
"Heh heh heh, come on over here, you incompetent cowards! Seeing your companions in such a miserable state, why don't you come over?"
As the Earth Giant chanted incantations, casting runes at the struggling souls before him, the Boiling Blood Giant, wielding a strange scimitar, shouted at the Lord of Souls at the edge of his vision.
The Boiling Blood Giant, still bearing traces of blood, scoffed and mocked wildly; he was absolutely no match for four Lord of Souls.
But he wasn't afraid.
Because Leo is there.
Given Leo's strength, even if those four Lord of Souls were to return, it would only be a matter of holding out for a little longer.
The four Lord of Souls remained silent, listening as the gradually fading screams of agony vanished completely.
They truly disregarded their companion, allowing him to be tortured to death by Leo.
They were completely terrified by Leo!!
The Boiling Blood Giant circled around the Earth Giant Earth Giant, providing protection, even though he knew the Earth Giant didn't need his protection; its powerful defenses allowed it to be fearless in this small world.
But the Boiling Blood Giant still used this method to express its sincerity!
Minutes later, the soul in the Earth Giant's hand vanished, and no one knew where it had gone.
"You go and stabilize the defenses first. I'll go help the wizard army repel this attack," Leo said to the Boiling Blood Giant.
"OK."
The Boiling Blood Giant didn't understand why Leo was taking action against the puppet army; perhaps it was to reduce the number of wizards dying in his academy.
The intelligent Boiling Blood Giant knows what to ask and what not to ask.
Leo released the Bloodline of the Earth Giant, reverting to human form. With a light step, he charged into the storm caused by the sheer number of puppet troops.
" Gravity, Energy Absorption, Ice, Blood Explosion, Soul Solidification, Soul Teleportation, Activate!"
Appearing amidst the puppet army, before the puppets could attack Leo, Leo had already activated his Six Paths Domain.
With a slight twitch of his finger, the puppets swept by the power of the domain died in droves.
However, the range of this domain attack was clearly not as large as before, and Leo did not deploy the domain for very long.
These areas were even superimposed, each time covering only a region with a diameter of one kilometer.
The purpose of doing this is not to kill, but to collect souls.
