Chapter 1400: The director's soul has a problem, but he can't possibly encounter everyone
Lin Yu did not actually take any special countermeasures against the attack that was aimed at his soul.
Because he knows...
It is almost impossible for the other party to have any effect on one's soul.
Because Lin Yu's current soul form is different from that of most 'players'.
Or……
His soul structure and underlying form have completely exceeded the scope of normal humans.
Of course, if you use your soul power or some kind of perception spell to sense things, you probably won't find anything unusual.
From the perspective of appearance and basic functions, Lin Yu's soul actually seems to be fine at first glance.
But if someone directly uses "soul power" to contact his soul like this, he will inevitably discover a huge surprise.
Because of his experience in the Gray Zone, Lin Yu's consciousness, spirit, and soul underwent a qualitative change, so at this moment, Lin Yu's soul form is "shattered".
All souls are a complete whole, but Lin Yu's is not.
His was pieced together from hundreds of millions of fragments of soul.
This level of difference not only has little to do with "humans," but it is even difficult to find similar creatures.
The more a master understands and uses soul power, and the more they have seen the "souls" of different races and beings in the Ten Realms, the less they will be able to understand Lin Yu's soul form and the more fear they will feel towards his existence.
After all, Lin Yu's soul, to put it simply, may look like a normal "human" from a distance, but upon closer inspection, one would find that he has no bones, blood, muscles, or other normal tissues. Instead, it is a pile of minced meat stuffed into a human-shaped bag.
Furthermore, if you look at them with a magnifying glass, you can see that each piece of minced meat is an independent living organism, and actually has a complete circulatory system, bones, muscles, and other tissues.
Therefore, if a master skilled in soul power were to directly contact Lin Yu's soul, let alone experience shock and fear... even if they could maintain their worldview and not have their rationality instantly reduced, Lin Yu would have to admire their unwavering will.
And clearly, this murderer... has a fairly decent willpower.
Although he showed great fear and fell into a brief state of confusion, he quickly adjusted his state, seemingly forcing himself not to think about why the soul form of the 'director' in front of him was in such a way, and instead began to restrain his soul power and no longer directly attack Lin Yu with his soul power.
"laugh--!"
The blue light behind him contracted and then condensed into three blurry, ghost-like humanoid souls without lower bodies, emitting a ghostly blue light, and rushed towards Lin Yu again.
Although these were still essentially soul power, they did not directly attack Lin Yu again with "soul power." Instead, they unleashed some... abilities from the Ten Realms in mid-air!
The ghost on the left formed hand seals and unleashed some kind of magic from the Hell Mountain Realm; the ghost in the middle drew complex totems out of thin air and attacked Lin Yu in the form of witchcraft; while the ghost on the far right simply condensed the soul power in its hands into the shape of a staff and released a torrent of magic power.
"There's even this kind of use? A clone? You've really learned a lot of different things!"
Lin Yu said coldly, then raised his hand to meet the attack.
Faced with three pure energy attacks, Lin Yu knew that the opponent's attacks were completely locked onto him, and there was no point in dodging.
But... he doesn't need to dodge!
The [Sacred Flame Codex] was revealed, activating the "Sacred Flame Barrier" and directly blocking the first attacking bluish-white magic ray—the magic surged and burst forth with dazzling light, but Lin Yu was not harmed at all.
Then, the [Prayer Water Necklace] once again surrounded Lin Yushengxian with water containing spiritual power, directly shattering the black skull phantom formed by the witch's curse, and even counterattacking towards the direction of the ghost in the middle.
Finally, the magic from the Prison Mountain Realm was completed, and the blood light condensed into a kind of mist that quickly spread towards Lin Yu's direction—but Lin Yu was not flustered, he just reached out and pulled out a long blue banner!
The 【Wanfa Dao Banner】swished, and a gentle breeze swept back, instantly dispersing the blood-red mist—under the profound spiritual energy of the orthodox Daoist tradition, the mixed power condensed by those magical techniques was swept away.
The three methods corresponded one-to-one, almost instantly neutralizing the attacks launched by the opponent from different worlds simultaneously!
The other person stared directly at Lin Yu through the dissipating blood mist, the exploding water, and the flashing magic. While his expression was solemn, his eyes flashed with a strange, almost excited light.
"That's right, that's right... 'Director'—I told you, you're even more formidable than I expected—you deflected a move that even a 'third-tier' fighter would struggle with so easily!"
"In that case... let's try this!"
As he spoke, he took out a dark, wriggling, gelatinous substance from his pocket. Just as he was about to crush it...
"Then look behind you!"
A voice rang out behind the 'drumstick'—the mastermind disguised as a drumstick turned around in surprise, and then saw a giant sword directly attacking his field of vision!
Let alone the drumsticks, even Lin Yu was a little surprised by the sudden appearance of this person!
“‘Fern’? No… it’s ‘algae’!”
In his mind, he should have to wait a while longer for the "Order's" "Tier 3" reinforcements to arrive.
However... Lin Yu admitted that he had indeed overlooked one thing.
That is... those in the 'Order' who will help me in this venue are not just the few 'Third Order' members.
The greatsword, gleaming with holy light, fell, and the unsuspecting drumstick was almost completely cleaved to the ground.
"Pfft!"
Blood spurted from his shoulder and splattered onto Zao's face!
"You're 'Ginkgo' from the 'Player Mutual Aid Association'?! A newly promoted 'Tier 3'... What courage!"
"This is none of your business!"
Although the drumsticks looked to be in terrible shape, he himself seemed very calm, as if he still held an absolute advantage.
Zao didn't waste any words with the other party.
"Fuck you!"
He swung his heavy sword again, slashing horizontally at his opponent!
However, just as the greatsword was about to strike the drumstick...
"Shh!"
The dark blue soul thread, which was right in front of them, shot out hundreds of fine threads that pierced the algae's body!
"You think everything will be fine once you get close to me?!"
The drumsticks roared, and Zao's movements suddenly slowed and stopped. The heavy sword in her hand clattered to the ground, and then she disappeared.
Lin Yu finally understood what move the other party had intended to use against him.
Although he lacked soul power... he could still sense it through his mental power—Zao's soul was being dragged away from his body by these threads!
In other words, these soul threads have the ability to force people to "leave their bodies".
At the same time, more than ten soul threads entered his body, transmitting strange power to the wound on the drumstick, using soul power to gradually "heal" his wound—of course, this "healing" was obviously temporary, since the wound did not disappear, but was instead filled with solid, dark blue soul power.
After healing his body, Drumstick picked up the black gelatinous substance again, raised it high, and rushed towards the algae whose body was temporarily "stuck" in place.
"Since you've delivered yourself to my doorstep, I'll start by taking action against you!"
But just as the drumstick approached the algae...
He was suddenly horrified to discover that this guy, whose soul had been pulled out of his body and temporarily sealed away, was now moving, despite having only residual instinctive reactions!
"quack--!"
A raven's mournful cry rang out, and black raven feathers burst forth, swooping down on the drumsticks and flashing a dazzling array of colors before his eyes.
However, as a master of the soul realm, Drumstick immediately reacted to this illusionary attack targeting consciousness.
His soul power surged, and he immediately regained his senses—then, Drumstick saw a pair of clear, bright eyes staring at him from nearby.
Just moments ago there was a distance of about two meters, but in the half-second of his dazed state, it had been pulled closer...
a step far!
"idiot."
A disdainful voice rang out as Fern reached behind her and drew a pair of sharp, short swords, each as short as a dagger.
"Crack——!"
The sound of a dagger cutting through the air rang out, and the drumstick's right hand, which was holding the black substance, was severed by the twin blades like scissors, falling to the ground with a thud.
The intense pain contorted the drumstick's face, but more than the pain in his hand, the drumstick felt confused and angry.
"And what's with your soul?! How can you still move?!"
The other party's soul is clearly still out of body, so how can this stinky woman still use [items] and abilities, and move around freely?
If her soul is still inside her body, then what was that thing she pulled out?!
Drumstick felt extremely confused—his core control ability, which he was so proud of and had almost never failed, had malfunctioned twice today.
Lin Yu, who was watching this scene from a distance, almost burst out laughing.
"What bad luck, man."
Lin Yu sighed in his heart.
He had the opportunity to help Zao, but Lin Yu didn't, partly because he knew that although Zao's soul had left her body, she didn't need his help.
Therefore, rather than revealing more of my methods and making my identity as a "director" appear too far beyond the "second level," it's better to just watch the other party perform here.
Of course, another reason why Lin Yu didn't make a move was that even if Jue couldn't handle it, it wasn't his turn to intervene.
Just as the drumsticks were about to struggle and prepare to attack the opponent again with soul threads, a loud shout came from above his head.
"You bastard, take this South Korean assault!"
The next moment, Captain Liangye, covered in black smoke, descended from the sky and headbutted him, slamming him into the floor!
Then, Ren Gu's voice rang out from the second-floor window.
"The use of 'soul' related abilities is temporarily prohibited within the venue! Repeat—The use of 'soul' related abilities is temporarily prohibited within the venue!"
