The terrifying will of the unknown monster descended again. This time, Lin Xiao just paused, and recovered at a faster speed than before. He plunged into the ocean of souls and madly devoured the endless soul power.
Since I can't do anything to myself anyway, what's the point in fighting to the death? I'll just absorb enough soul power first.
His action made the monster extremely angry. Lightning flashed from the two huge pupils of the octopus-like head. The tentacles around the edge rose up as if they were electrocuted. The surrounding void twisted, and a transparent shadow exactly the same as the monster flew out and pounced on Lin Xiao. It merged into his body, and the next second Lin Xiao, who was madly devouring the soul power, stopped moving.
The unknown monster stretched out two thick tentacles, and the invisible force pulled the motionless Lin Xiao towards itself. The stiff Titan's real body moved sideways in front of it, and the huge dark gold head fell in front of it. The light in its pupils changed, and it turned into two transparent tentacles formed by pure soul and mental power that flew out, ignoring his powerful real body and plunged into Lin Xiao's head.
From a distance, Lin Xiao was unconscious, with two huge transparent tentacles inserted into his head, constantly flying and stirring, which looked terrifying.
If any other strong man faced this situation, he would be dead. Even if Xie Tianyan, who was at the 19th level of godhood and in charge of the fifth war zone, came and encountered this situation, it would be the same. The soul of this thing was too powerful.
But Lin Xiao was an exception. At the soul level that ordinary people could not see, two extremely thick tentacles formed by soul and spirit inserted into his brain. The soul shell formed by the core shell of the crystal wall system, which had an invincible defense, allowed the tentacles to penetrate as if it had no defense. The thick soul tentacles entered Lin Xiao's sea of soul, and the first thing they saw was not Lin Xiao's soul, but Tishar, the ancestor of the dream who was awakened by him.
She couldn't help in the Tomb of the First Ancestor, but it was different in his Sea of Souls.
Before Tishaer showed his full strength, he turned into a sun that spanned the sea of his soul. The monster's soul, which was far more powerful than Lin Xiao's, was nothing but a speck in front of the true ancestor.
In the silver soul ocean, the unknown monster that had captured Lin Xiao suddenly let out a terrified roar, and its whole body shook violently. The terrifying soul power exploded into a tidal wave, and the soul tentacles that shot into Lin Xiao's brain shook violently, and the brightness instantly became more than ten times brighter, turning into two dazzling light tentacles like lasers that trembled wildly.
Immediately afterwards, the monster's aura weakened at a speed visible to the naked eye. In less than ten minutes, its aura had weakened to a point weaker than the derivative monsters it had encountered before.
At a certain moment, Lin Xiao opened his eyes, the void suddenly lit up, and his energetic gaze swept above his head. With a thought, the surrounding void collapsed and turned into a black hole again.
He probably wouldn't be able to defeat this guy in a head-on fight, and this monster wouldn't be able to defeat him either, but he had a helper hidden in his soul.
As the ancestor, even if Tishar was seriously injured, non-ancestors could not resist him.
Perhaps a group of peak eighth-level warriors could kill the seriously injured ancestor, but several of them would surely die as scapegoats. If there was only one, they would definitely not be her match, not to mention that Lin Xiao was there to help.
So this ancestor-derived monster that had reached the limit of its own strength died miserably in Lin Xiao's hands, and all its strength was devoured by him and turned into nutrients for growth.
There was also this huge ocean of souls. Lin Xiao was like an ant falling into a honey pot. He could devour the ocean-like soul power left by his ancestor, which turned into a huge silver vortex surrounding the black hole, continuously engulfing and strengthening his soul.
In less than a month, Lin Xiao digested the monster, and his soul strength skyrocketed to the same level as the monster, and was still growing.
Obviously, his soul limit is far stronger than this monster.
Half a year later, this huge ocean of souls had been almost completely digested by him. At this time, Lin Xiao himself couldn't estimate how powerful his soul was, but he was sure that if he encountered such a monster again, he could defeat it by himself without relying on Tisha.
Roughly estimated, it is about three or four times the size of that monster.
In other words, the remaining soul power of the ancestor of the end of all things can create four or five peak eighth-level monsters.
Lin Xiao has swallowed so much soul power, but has not reached his soul limit yet, and can continue.
"Hmm?"
The sudden sense of satisfaction stunned him, and his will sank into the sea of his soul. Compared with the sea of his soul that had expanded dozens of times before, it was far from reaching its limit and could continue to devour more soul power, but he could not devour anymore.
"This is too much!"
The soul can indeed continue to be contained, but his true spirit can no longer control more soul power.
To put it more bluntly, his soul power increased too much at once, and his true spirit did not increase that much at the same time, and now it is about to exceed the limit of his true spirit.
It can continue to strengthen, but the consequence is that the ability to control oneself will decrease.
The body, magic power and soul are a trinity. These three poles are the direct manifestation of one's own strength, and the core is the true spirit.
It stands to reason that as strength gradually increases, the true spirit will also grow slowly by feeding back its own power. Generally speaking, there is a huge room for maneuver in the upper limit of power that the true spirit can control. For example, when promoted, the strength can generally be increased several times, and it does not seem that the true spirit cannot control it.
But this time Lin Xiao's strength grew too fast, it was like he was growing explosively strong like a rocket. Not only his soul, but also his body and magic power, as well as the power of termination he mastered, etc. The combined growth rate was quite exaggerated, which led to this situation that most geniuses would never encounter.
What should he do?
Tishaer gave him a suggestion. The excess soul power could be used to condense a soul core within the soul, and even the mana that would reach the limit of mastery soon could be injected into this new soul core.
In the future, as the true spirit grows with its own powerful soul and strength, it can refine the stored core at any time to enhance the upper limit of its own strength.
Soon, Lin Xiao re-condensed a core in the sea of his soul, and all the soul power and magic power he swallowed later were integrated into it, and it continued to grow as he continued to swallow.
After devouring the central core of the remains of the ancestor who ended all things, the subsequent devouring went very smoothly. Although there were occasionally some derived monsters in other areas, they were not his match and were defeated and devoured one by one, turning into nutrients for his growth.
Time passed, and after an unknown amount of time, Lin Xiao, whose consciousness had been in his soul analyzing the law of the end, suddenly woke up from his deep sleep.
The remains of the ancestor of the end of all things were almost completely devoured. The huge remains changed from the original full moon to a thin crescent, and the other large part of the remains had been completely devoured.
Not long after, the last part of the remains was swallowed up, and the black hole slowly shrank. The super plateau as huge as a planet that spanned the land completely disappeared. Even the ubiquitous death aura in the nearby area was swallowed up by him and became extremely thin. It was unknown how long it would take for it to slowly recover.
When the black hole shrank to a diameter of about 30 kilometers, the darkness slowly deformed to reveal the outline of an extremely large human figure.
The current limit of Lin Xiao's true body is thirty kilometers.
Compared to the previous eight or nine kilometers, it seems to be only three times higher, but his strength is dozens of times stronger. Now he can kill his former self with just a few palms.
After absorbing enough death energy, his real body has adapted to the rules of the Ancestral Tomb and can fully release his power. The omnipresent death power in the tomb can no longer hinder his vision. Compared to the initial distance of only ten meters, he can now clearly see the scene hundreds of kilometers away.
Also, he could vaguely sense the locations of the remains of several other ancestors in the ancestral tomb.
Somewhere in the wasteland, four sons of the Spirit Realm were walking in a miserable state. There were five of them when they first came in, but now there were only four left. The dead one had completely perished. Here, the power of the True Underworld Ancestor could not extend in, and there was no way to make their souls return to the main world of the Spirit Realm.
After a while, one of the sons of the spirit realm looked at the gray world and asked the leader in front:
"How far is it?"
The leader stopped and turned around to reveal a weathered face. He took out a thick book with a cover carved from a bone plate and flipped through the pages. When he reached a page with a map on it, it was pitch black with only two spots of light. He looked at it for a while and said,
"It shouldn't be far. We have already walked two-thirds of the way. We will definitely reach the remaining one-third within ten years."
"Ten years?"
The other sons of the Spirit Realm were slightly cheered up when they heard this. Seeing this, the leader encouraged them,
"We have made it this far. We just need to hold on for another ten years. When we find something and take it out, His Majesty the True Underworld Ancestor has promised to grant us power comparable to that of a master."
Everyone's spirits were lifted. They had taken such a big risk to come in just for the sake of strength. Now that victory was in sight, they suddenly became energized and continued to move forward.
And in the depths of the world, in a place they could not see or sense, Lin Xiao had already arrived in front of the remains of another fallen ancestor.
The remains of the ancestor, whose flesh and blood have disappeared and only the skeleton remains, cannot reveal the ancestor's true appearance from the surface. The only way to see the ancestor's appearance is from the remaining marks by devouring the ancestor's runes and power.
Lin Xiao was very surprised at the power possessed by this ancestor, it was actually balance.
The power of balance may not add much to combat power, but its ability to save lives is very strong. I didn't expect that he would fall, and I don't know what kind of terrible opponent he encountered.
This power is of great use to Lin Xiao. The ancient priesthood he possesses is balance, and the two completely overlap.
No, to be precise, the power of balance completely covers all the laws of balance that he had previously comprehended.
How much he understood about balance? How could he compare with the Originator of Balance, who had already completely mastered the ultimate meaning of balance.
