The terrifying will of the unknown monster descended once again, but this time Lin Xiao merely hesitated for a moment before recovering even quicker than before, plunging headfirst into the Sea of Souls, and frenziedly devouring the endless soul power.
Since it couldn't harm him, there was no point in fighting tooth and nail: better to consume enough soul power before anything else.
This action infuriated the monster, its octopus-like head shooting out lightning-like brilliance from its enormous pupils, while a ring of tentacles raised like electrified wires around the edges. The surrounding void twisted as a transparent phantom, identical to the monster, flew out and dove toward Lin Xiao, merging into his body. The next second, as Lin Xiao who was frantically devouring the soul power came to a sudden halt, motionless.
