Chapter 165: Soul Nihility Spheres

Just as they were talking, they saw icicles move. Their speed was similar to normal attacks done using spiritual qi instead of soul attacks.

They all snickered and waited for the icicles to come close. They were sure that after some distance, the icicles wouldn’t be able to change directions and would have to move straight, as they would be out of range from Ming Yue’s spirit sense.

But nonetheless, every single one of the icicles was moving toward its target perfectly for the time being, which meant she definitely knew where they were hiding.

This was a little concerning because it was really impossible to find them through the naked eye.

The icicles moved straight, and when they were about 200 meters away from the hidden cultivators, they all decided to dodge. They just moved a little away from their original locations and waited for the icicles to miss them.

"What a waste of an attack. Seriously, what was she hoping for, that we would stay and take the attack head—"

The words of the cultivator got stuck in his mouth because an icicle was already in front of his face. Every one of them was watching the icicles, so none of them missed the moment they changed direction, and their speed increased far beyond their imagination.

Ming Yue shook her head. Since she had used soul flames on the icicles, she could increase their speed to almost that of a soul attack. The reason why she didn’t do so at the start was simply to let them feel at ease.

Four hundred meters were enough for a peak stage Soul Sea cultivator to dodge a soul attack that was not a complete soul attack.

Making them feel at ease had guaranteed her that she don’t have to attack again, as her previous strike had been enough to wipe out every one of them.

Jiang Hao teleported to the ground and picked up all the storage bags, and looked through everything. No doubt, each of them had been carrying some resources.

These cultivators must have been ambushing others for quite some time, so it was a given that they wouldn’t be empty-handed.

He took out everything and looked at the storage bags. There were already a lot of them on him, and there was no space to carry more. In the end, he decided to throw them away; they weren’t of good quality anyway.

Yi Lin looked at Ming Yue with a completely shocked expression. There was no doubt Ming Yue was only at the early stage of the Soul Sea realm.

But she had just killed cultivators at the peak stage of the Soul Sea realm like it was nothing.

Now she understood why Hunlang had been afraid of Jiang Hao. These people were not ordinary.

It wasn’t hard to understand why those two sects were targeting them.

"What’s with that look?"

Ming Yue looked at Yi Lin’s shocked expression and asked.

This brought Yi Lin back from her reverie. She smiled a little and pointed toward the ground.

"Sister Ming, that ground is about 400 meters away. Not to mention, all of the cultivators you killed were at the peak of the Soul Sea stage. I definitely saw those icicles turn just before they reached their targets. That means your spirit sense range is more than 300 meters.

This is hard to believe, as there has never been anyone with that much range. Let’s forget about that, your attacks were lethal enough to kill peak Soul Sea realm cultivators in one single strike.

And here you are, asking me what’s with my expression. Sister Ming, are you teasing me?"

Yi Lin just couldn’t hold back from expressing her thoughts.

Ming Yue simply smiled at her but didn’t admit to the teasing part, as she hadn’t intended to do so.

"By the way, I forgot to ask you, why are you alone? Don’t tell me you came here alone."

Yi Lin smiled a little sadly and said,

"It’s not like that. A total of twenty disciples were selected to come here from Soul Sea realm, but you see, I don’t have a good relationship with my sect-mates, so I was just moving alone."

Ming Yue nodded. She couldn’t help but wonder how bad her relationship with others was for her to be forced to move alone in such a dangerous place. She didn’t ask this aloud, as she didn’t want to overstep her boundaries.

Jiang Hao came back, and they resumed their journey.

Nothing changed much, but they witnessed more dead cultivators. It was said that once half a day passed, the main consciousness would pull dead bodies to some unknown place. So, if you saw any dead cultivators, they had definitely died recently.

There was one good thing though, after their previous incident, Ming Yue had stopped asking Jiang Hao anything and was only talking with Yi Lin about any new changes in the western region.

This continued for a while before they finally saw another group of cultivators. At least this time, they weren’t being ambushed. Two groups were fighting, but it didn’t seem to be for any resources.

It seemed like the situation was similar to what had happened to them earlier, one of the groups was getting ambushed by the other.

It was easy to discern the perpetrators, as their ambush seemed to be working.

The group of cultivators being ambushed consisted of five cultivators, while the other side had twelve.

Jiang Hao had to stop because Ming Yue and Yi Lin stopped.

"Should we help?"

Yi Lin asked.

"Of course we should. What do you think, junior brother?"

Jiang Hao shrugged his shoulders. If she wanted to, she could. It wasn’t a big deal. They weren’t in a hurry anyway. It would be a problem only if, after saving them, she invited them to travel together.

"Then what are you waiting for, junior brother? Didn’t you love fighting alone?"

Jiang Hao looked at her speechlessly. It looked like she was going to use this reason far longer than he had expected.

And wasn’t she angry because he hadn’t let her battle in the first place? So, just like before, she should handle this one too, right? He sighed inwardly and looked at the twelve cultivators who were engaged in battle with only five. Although they seemed to be winning, it was only because they had more numbers.

He had to admit that these cultivators were quite strong. Three were handling two cultivators each, while the remaining three were handling three cultivators each.

Some of them were too close, so if he used a Nihility Sphere, it wouldn’t just kill the person he wanted.

There was another way though, creating Nihility Spheres with spiritual qi.

After advancing to the Soul Sea realm, his Nihility Sphere had also become a soul attack. But the problem was that his spiritual qi was not like his original qi.

Spiritual qi is made up of spiritual essence and spirit qi. He had inexhaustible spirit qi inside this inheritance site, but his spiritual essence was determined by his cultivation realm. Although even at Soul Sea realm his spiritual essence was at the Nascent Soul realm, it wouldn’t be enough to keep creating multiple Nihility Spheres.

He could definitely create twelve of them, but it would consume half of his spiritual qi.

People usually didn’t use soul attacks unless their situation was desperate. It was because if they became low on spiritual qi, then, forget about battle, they might not even be able to properly handle themselves.

But since he also wanted to test his soul Nihility Spheres, he thought it would be fine to use them here.

He created them as usual, and he could definitely feel the strain on his soul from using more than half of his spiritual qi. They didn’t look any different in size or color, they just seemed to be more ethereal compared to spirit qi Nihility Spheres.

He controlled them and attacked the twelve cultivators. There was no need to mention the speed of soul attacks, it was tremendously faster than his usual Nihility Sphere attacks.

His opponents didn’t even know about his existence before a black sphere entered their bodies. No matter where a soul attack struck a cultivator, it would always enter the soul sea of the cultivator.

Instantly, every single one of the twelve cultivators stopped moving. Because of this, they were struck by their opponents, but it didn’t matter, they were already dead.

The soul is the most vulnerable part of any person, even more so than the dantian. So protecting it is of utmost importance for any cultivator.

Because even if you survived a soul attack, it wouldn’t matter if your soul got injured badly in the process.

Soul injuries take tremendously longer to heal. Jiang Hao didn’t know how long his soul would take to heal, but it would definitely be longer than his usual regeneration.

And if you didn’t heal your soul, then you could forget about advancing further in your cultivation realm.

The group of five cultivators was stunned because they had seen something black hitting their opponents. Given how fast it was, they knew it was a soul attack. Not to mention, its speed was far faster than a Soul Sea realm soul attack.

They had only been able to see the trail of the attack, not the actual shape.

They all looked up immediately because the attack had come from above, and without doubt, they were able to see Jiang Hao and the wolf with two women. But... weren’t they too far?

Before they could think further, Jiang Hao appeared amidst them. They were shocked and moved away immediately. Ming Yue and Yi Lin came a little closer too.

Jiang Hao didn’t pay attention to the five cultivators and moved toward the ones he had killed, taking the storage bags they had.

After he was done, he finally looked toward the five cultivators.
