With the intent to retreat in mind, Lin Xiangtian began to spur his soulforce to his feet so he could follow through with his mind. But… 

“Freeze!!”

One moment later and Lin Xiangtian was stuck frozen to his spot!

His immediate freezing motion was met with great resistance. Snarling to himself, Lin Xiangtian forced his body to continue moving. He was furious! Bai Yunfei wasn’t even a Mid-stage Soul Emperor and yet he was capable of a soul attack strong enough to affect him!

“Freeze!!”

Another soul attack!

“Freeze!!”

A third one!!

“Damn!!”

The blood vessel on Lin Xiangtian’s face was close to popping with how angry he felt. He desperately wanted to retaliate with a soul attack of his own, but…he didn’t dare do it!!

He still remembered the last time he tried a soul attack and had it reflected back onto him for his troubles! 

Soul attacks are what soul cultivators of the Soul King or higher level use for their strongest moves, usually. But in this case, he couldn’t even use one or risk being retaliated against!

“Die!!”

Throwing off the very last of the soul attack, Lin Xiangtian managed to muster up just enough willpower to command his eight-tailed bull to attack!

Since a soul attack wasn’t an option, that left leaving his soulbeast puppet to attacking for him!

From what he knew, Bai Yunfei’s ability to counter soul attacks was something he could use only once every few minutes. There was nothing to fear if his soulbeast puppet could take the rebound for him!

“Roar!!!”

An unprecedentedly loud roar erupted from the bull. The Phantasm trembled for a moment as the roar echoed through it. The first to show signs of being affected by the soul attack was the galewing lion. Coming to an immediate halt where it was in the sky, it didn’t even make a sound. The next was Xiao Qi who let out a mourning cry before plummeting from the sky!

The soul attack of a mid-stage class eight soulbeast is without a doubt very powerful. It wasn’t something two early-stage class eight soulbeasts could handle!

But the primary target, Bai Yunfei… 

Lin Xiangtian’s eyes were honed in on Bai Yunfei. He was anxiously waiting for the right moment, but… 

There was no reaction!!

He looked absolutely normal! The eight-tailed bull’s soul attack didn’t do a thing!

Lin Xiangtian thought Bai Yunfei would use his trump card to deflect the soul attack. That way, the soulbeast puppet would be the one to suffer the brunt of the soul attack and leave the path open for Lin Xiangtian to use a soul attack of his own!

From within the flames of where Bai Yunfei was, a transparent barrier shimmered over his person! It shimmered and rippled as if something slammed into it, but it was still completely intact. And inside of the barrier stood a completely unaffected Bai Yunfei.

By his waist was the Soul Sealing Mandate, the surface of it flickering with a white glow… 

The +10 additional effect of the Soul Sealing Mandate! 

+10 Additional Effect: Create a spiritual barrier by using soulforce. Gain immunity to a single spirit-based attack for up to 5 seconds.Cooldown of 24 hours.

What Lin Xiangtian wanted to happen wasn’t going to happen. Not when Bai Yunfei knew what Lin Xiangtian was planning. He didn’t want to ‘squander’ the precious ability to rebound soul attacks onto the soulbeast puppet, so he used the +10 additional effect of the Soul Sealing Mandate to completely nullify the bull’s attack!

Five seconds passed since he managed to first escape danger. In that fifth second, Bai Yunfei was speeding through the air to rush at Lin Xiangtian once again!

“Freeze!!!”

It was time for the fourth Soul Anchor Technique!

Lin Xiangtian faltered for a moment once struck, allowing Bai Yunfei to close the distance and lash out with the Fire-tipped Spear!

“Ahh!!!”

The blood drained away Lin Xiangtian’s face upon being hit by the Soul Anchor Technique again. Even with the mightiest of willpowers, Lin Xiangtian was only capable of shifting his feet backward.

“Whoosh!!”

There was a blur of light as Bai Yunfei multiplied by three in front of him. Simultaneously, three more Fire-tipped Spear appeared in their hands to stab at his face, throat, and heart!

This was the +12 additional effect of the Fire-tipped Spear, Doppelganger!

It was the first time Lin Xiangtian had ever experienced such a sight, but his senses were telling him just one thing—all three of these spears were real!

Without any time for a second thought, Lin Xiangtian covered himself with a golden barrier over his arms. It was his only defense against the two spears coming at his face and throat!

“Clang! Clang!!”

Two of the three spears were blocked by Lin Xiangtian’s defense. It was an easier task than expected, Lin Xiangtian thought. He expected that the spears would have more bite to them!

That was because those two spears only had seventy percent of their original strength!

Bai Yunfei knew. He knew that the throat and face would be the most places any person would try to protect first and foremost. The heart wasn’t particularly a place to worry about. Most people had confidence in their armor to protect them. For someone like Lin Xiangtian, a soul armament of the high-heaven tier could be expected.

And that was exactly the reason why he chose to attack at the heart with his real body. He was going to break through that defense of Lin Xiangtian!

It was pointless for Lin Xiangtian to protect his chest by the time he blocked the two other spears. At best, the only thing he could do was shift his body as much as he could and erect an elemental barrier to ward off the most of the damage.

His elemental barrier and high-heaven tier soul armament should be more than enough to protect him. That spear of Bai Yunfei wouldn’t be strong enough to pierce through both, even if it was a high-heaven tier soul armament… 

But much to his shock…the elemental barrier he erected did nothing at all! The spear went straight through his barrier as if the barrier didn’t even exist!

It was the +13 additional effect of the spear, the ability to ignore elemental defenses!

“Clang!!”

The unexpected clang of metal striking metal could be heard for a brief second before Lin Xiangtian felt an unbelievable piercing pain in his torso!

His own armor had been pierced!

Then the next sound he heard brought forth an unbelievable notion in his head!

“Boom!!!”

An explosion erupted from the tip of the spear! From where his abdomen was!

It was the +10 additional effect!

Fire blossomed to life over Lin Xiangtian’s waist. Eating away at his robes like a swarm of ravenous insects, the flames then sent Lin Xiangtian soaring away like a rocket!

And to give chase, Bai Yunfei leaped after him like an arrow released from a bow!

While the spear dealt an incredible amount of damage, it wasn’t a fatal blow!

The +13 additional effect of the Fire-tipped Spear was enough to have it bypass Lin Xiangtian’s barrier and strike at him with seven thousand points worth of attack. Combined with the Eighty-one Fold Stab (Damage is not multiplicative by eighty-one, it just increases the attack substantially) and the Law of Fire made it possible for the spear to pierce through the high-heaven tier soul armament! It seemed almost incredulous that Lin Xiangtian wasn’t dead even after the explosion!

That was because of how Lin Xiangtian leaned his body so the spear deviated away from his heart just enough for it to hit his waist instead! As powerful as the explosion was, the flesh of a Mid-stage Soul Emperor was even stronger! That explosion was only strong enough to leave a small burning hole on his waist!

Some blood managed to escape from the wound before the flames cauterized it, but there was also a bit of his internal organs that escaped from it. Still—a wound like that was not fatal!

He only needed a bit of time to recover from this! So Bai Yunfei knew he had to strike while the iron was hot and deal the finishing blow before his enemy could recover!

Grabbing at his left waist, Bai Yunfei threw out a white ball of light toward Lin Xiangtian!

What better time than now to use the Soul Sealing Mandate?

The Regalia shot forward like a streak of light. Right as Bai Yunfei was about to activate it…a golden ray of light appeared!

“Clang!!”

The golden light smashed into the white light—it was that shuttle again! It managed to deflect the Soul Sealing Mandate away!

Bai Yunfei was shocked.

He thought Lin Xiangtian was helpless in this situation! It should’ve been the prime time for him to attack! The Soul Sealing Mandate should’ve had more than enough time to activate and capture Lin Xiangtian but somehow the beast tamer managed to strike back under such a precarious situation!

Grabbing the rebounded Soul Sealing Mandate, Bai Yunfei drew his hand back and took the shuttle-shaped soul armament into his other.

He was in the midst of observing the soul armament when Lin Xiangtian suddenly gained a brilliant gleam of light in his eyes!

“Ah!! Die!!!”

Seemingly overwhelmed by his emotions, Lin Xiangtian jabbed a furious finger at Bai Yunfei!

“Roar!!!”

An equally furious roar erupted from…down below Bai Yunfei!

Because of his close pursuit, Bai Yunfei incidentally brought himself closer to the eight-tailed bull. Pushed back after his failure to use the Soul Sealing Mandate, Bai Yunfei was clear of the tails of the bull and the hindlegs. But this meant he was near the forelegs of the bull now!

Under the command of Lin Xiangtian, the eight-tailed bull lashed out with its mouth to snap down onto him!
