Capítulo 2268: Chapter 157: Fallen Souls (Part 2)
Only when the rules mastered by oneself reach the ultimate level and beco self-contained can one avoid being affected.
“Unable to utilize rules, the biggest advantage of early-stage Tribulation-Transcending Realm cultivators is gone. The gap with Unification cultivators is not so vast… No wonder this place is considered dangerous.”
Wang Ba sensed the faint change in the expressions of the cultivators around him, and a wisp of realization flashed across his mind.
Here, perhaps only Mahayana Cultivators whose rules transcend Realm Sea and are self-contained can walk leisurely.
However, Wang Ba soon noticed True Man Ba at the forefront of the team and True Man Nie at the rear. Although their expressions were tense, they weren’t as panicked as the other cultivators, and Wang Ba understood a bit more.
Early-stage Tribulation-Transcending Realm cultivators have only preliminarily mastered rules, naturally struggling to resist the environnt of Soul Falling. But middle-stage cultivators, being further along in rule mastery, are less affected.
This is also the source of True Man Ba’s confidence.
Being able to utilize rules in Soul Falling is like the difference between a small boat and a large ship.
Though complex in explanation, it’s rely a fleeting thought in Wang Ba’s mind.
anwhile, the cultivators followed behind True Man Ba, heading towards the encroaching darkness with lowered speed, proceeding cautiously.
The whistling wind, accompanied by chaotic gales, swept over everyone, causing no harm, yet evoking a sinister chill that grew more pronounced. Soon, illusory sounds seed to whisper, mournful and ceaseless…
Wang Ba’s gaze swept ahead and suddenly halted, as a cultivator walking in front of him had his Primordial Spirit unexpectedly float out from his Xin Gate, his expression delirious, moving with the sinister gale as if about to be blown away!
“Falling of the soul!”
“Is this the origin of Soul Falling’s na?! Even Tribulation-Transcending Realm cultivators can fall prey if careless!”
Wang Ba’s expression turned grim, ready to act.
Yet at that mont, True Man Ba ahead seed to notice sothing, abruptly stopping, turning and reaching out to slam his palm down!
The Primordial Spirit of the cultivator ahead was imdiately slapped back down by True Man Ba!
With the Primordial Spirit returning, the cultivator’s eyes cleared instantly.
Horrified, relieved, and grateful, he quickly voiced:
“Thank you, Taoist Brother Ba!”
“No more words! Imdiately isolate the five senses! Communicate only using spiritual sense! Stay close to !”
True Man Ba didn’t even glance, swiftly uttering a deep warning upon sensing danger.
The saved cultivator’s face flushed in embarrassnt but couldn’t argue, ultimately closing his five senses, using only spiritual sense to perceive his surroundings.
Wang Ba slightly squinted, glancing around, yet didn’t close his five senses.
Thanks to the powerful aftereffects of the Dharma Lineage, his Primordial Spirit’s foundation was robust. Even though he was early-stage Tribulation-Transcending, the breadth of rules he mastered was unrivaled here, so he didn’t particularly fear the illusory sounds within Soul Falling.
Moreover, spiritual sense wasn’t foolproof, and pairing it with the five senses added an extra layer of safety.
Indeed, Wang Ba soon realized, not only he, but True Man Ba at the forefront and True Man Nie at the rear hadn’t closed their five senses either, all cautiously surveying their surroundings, varying their pace to avoid stumbling into danger.
At that mont, Wang Ba noticed True Man Ba turn his head, his gaze sharp, and shout:
“That one from Zhang’s Ruins…”
“I am Taiyi.”
Sensing the other’s displeasure, Wang Ba’s expression slightly darkened, raising a hand in response.
“I told you to close your five senses, what are you doing!”
True Man Ba’s face turned stern, shouting sharply.
His reproach drew the attention of other cultivators, spiritual senses scanning, only to see True Man Ba angered again. Though so sympathized with Wang Ba, none spoke much.
Wang Ba looked at his opponent, his expression involuntarily darkening.
Gaze focused, he suddenly raised his hand, his sleeve billowing, abruptly enveloping True Man Ba!
This scene shocked everyone!
True Man Nie at the rear lightly changed his expression, urgently saying:
“Don’t!”
True Man Ba didn’t expect Wang Ba to erupt so suddenly, feeling both astonished and angry, preparing to strike back.
Yet in the next mont, a chilling sensation surged throughout his back!
Before he could react, a sharp, piercing screech and the sound of an object rapidly scraping past ca from behind.
The chill subsided, montary flashes passed, seeing a shadow struggling fiercely, rushing by.
Then he heard the exclamations of the cultivators and True Man Nie.
“What is this?!”
“Such monsters hidden within the wind!”
“Is this what causes the illusory sounds?”
“Taoist Friend Taiyi is truly impressive, I hadn’t noticed before!”
True Man Ba’s eyes followed the voices.
He saw Wang Ba’s face calm, holding a three-foot-long dark object.
Resembling a fox, its throat was clenched, attempting to escape with teeth bared, rolling with ghostly energy, half real, half illusory.
Everyone couldn’t help but gather around, marveling aloud.
Even the previously indifferent True Man Nie, observing the Black Fox, was sowhat amazed, coming forward for a closer look.
Outside the crowd, True Man Ba realized that Taoist Friend Taiyi from Zhang’s Ruins wasn’t attacking him but intended to capture this creature.
He instinctively recalled the skill Taiyi had displayed, heart tightening!
Wang Ba, on the other hand, casually remarked:
