Chapter 966: Chapter 963: The True Purpose Chapter 966: Chapter 963: The True Purpose Lin Xinyue managed to counterattack successfully, but she did not show any triumph and turned around to flee immediately.

At this moment, the void ahead fluctuated, and Shen Luo's figure appeared. With a wave of his sleeve, he released a Golden Dragon Horn Short Cone from his palm, striking fiercely towards Lin Xinyue.

Meanwhile, the Red Sword Silk bound by Spider Silk behind her suddenly brightened and converged rapidly, forming a Red Giant Sword several zhang in length with flames erupting from it. With a booming sound, it shot forward.

“Crack,” the sound of breaking echoed loudly as the spider web was torn apart, and the Red Giant Sword burst forward instantaneously, closing within a few zhang behind Lin Xinyue.

Attacked from both front and back, Lin Xinyue was startled but not panicked. A green light flashed in her palm, and she formed an ancient horn, deep green in color. She blew into it forcefully.

“Woo”!

An extremely piercing soundwave spread rapidly, causing the nearby void to buzz and tremble, generating waves of storm-like forces that expanded in all directions.

Both the Dragon Horn Short Cone and the Red Giant Sword were the main targets of this soundwave storm. Sharp forces struck the awl and the sword, creating loud cracks and sparks flew in all directions.

Whether it was the Dragon Horn Short Cone or the Red Giant Sword, both were halted in their tracks.

Following the Dragon Horn Short Cone, Shen Luo suddenly clutched his head, his face twisted in agony.

Farther away, Bai Xiaotian's head as if severely struck, his vision went blurry, and he groaned in pain.

This soundwave even contained the ability to attack the divine soul!

At this moment, the sound of the horn suddenly deepened, no longer as sharp and piercing. It wailed low and continuous, resembling a woman's crying, intermittent yet deep, causing dizziness to those who heard it.

“Demonic Soul-Attracting Sound!” Bai Xiaotian couldn't help but flail his limbs uncontrollably, unable to restrain himself, and exclaimed in horror.

Lin Xinyue, her uninjured left arm, swung and released a green shadow. It was a Green Vine Willow Leaf Whip bound with willow leaf blades, the blade lights flickering with a threatening aura.

The green Whip Shadow elongated with the wind and traversed a hundred feet in a flash, faster than lightning, and with a swoosh, it pierced Shen Luo's body, going straight through.

“Brother Shen!” Bai Xiaotian yelled, wanting to rush forward to help, but the weeping sounds were still echoing around the void, preventing him from controlling his body.

The offensive of the Dragon Horn Short Cone and the Red Giant Sword came to a halt, their radiance quickly dimming.

“I had no intention of harming you, Your Excellency forced my hand, so you can't blame me,” Lin Xinyue snorted and shook her hand to retract the whip.

But just at that moment, Shen Luo's body that had been pierced by the whip suddenly disintegrated into countless blue lights and disappeared.

“Doppelganger!” Lin Xinyue's eyes widened, then she noticed something else.

That was, at some point, a Silver Ring adorned with several turquoise-like gemstones had been slipped onto the tip of the Green Vine Willow Leaf Whip.

The woman was taken aback, but she immediately reacted, shaking the whip to throw off the Silver Ring.

But she was a step too late.

A hand flashing with blue light stretched out from the void next to Lin Xinyue and gently patted her shoulder.

“Crackle,” Lin Xinyue's body was instantly enveloped in a layer of shimmering blue ice armor, turning into an ice sculpture that stood still, and the green horn, now encased in solid blue ice, fell silent.

The figure of another Shen Luo appeared behind the hand, reaching out to take the silver ring from the Green Vine Willow Leaf Whip.

“Don't worry, I have no intention of harming you,” Shen Luo said with a faint smile, pressing his hand on the blue ice sculpture. His palm shone brightly with golden light as the Heavenly Book Projection emerged and unfolded with a whoosh.

The blue ice sculpture disappeared in an instant, absorbed into the Heavenly Book Space, and the surroundings returned to calm.

With the horn's sound gone, Bai Xiaotian regained control of his body and flew over.

“Brother Shen, what's going on here? How did you withstand her Demonic Soul-Attracting Sound by lurking beside her?” he asked eagerly, completely confused by the battle's intricacies.

Especially that Soul-Devouring Demonic Sound from the horn, which was so powerful Bai Xiaotian believed even those at the Great Mahayana Stage couldn't resist it, yet Shen Luo seemed completely unscathed.

“Nothing much, my true body was hidden in the golden space from the start, letting my doppelganger engage her with the Linlang Ring. The Demonic Soul-Attracting Sound naturally had no effect on me. During the battle, I managed to get the Linlang Ring close to Lin Xinyue and then struck from the golden space the moment she let her guard down, freezing her in an instant,” Shen Luo explained simply.

After hearing all this, Bai Xiaotian's expression became complicated.

The process sounded simple, but to conceive and execute such tactics in the split seconds of combat was beyond his abilities.

“Is Girl Lin alright? She seemed to have no ill intentions when chasing us,” Bai Xiaotian then asked with some concern.

“She's fine. She's just been frozen by the chill of the Indigo Ocean Divine Technique. I'll thaw her out in the golden space shortly. You should continue onward; there might be more pursuers coming,” Shen Luo handed the Linlang Ring to Bai Xiaotian and vanished into the Heavenly Book Space.

Bai Xiaotian didn't linger and immediately continued flying forward.

The scene before Shen Luo's eyes blurred, and he found himself in a certain part of the Heavenly Book Space.

Lin Xinyue's ice sculpture stood quietly there, motionless.

He placed his hand on the sculpture, and his palm emitted a great blue light. The ice sculpture rapidly shrank, and within a few breaths turned into a cloud of blue chill, which merged into his palm.

Shen Luo glanced at his palm, a hint of satisfaction on his face. After days of taking the Snow Soul Pill for cultivation, his Indigo Ocean Divine Technique had absorbed plenty of cold energy, making it even more exquisite, to the point where he could recapture the released cold energy.

As the blue ice vanished, Lin Xinyue regained her freedom, looking around in shock. She immediately flew backward, distancing herself from Shen Luo.

But suddenly, the golden light around her condensed into a square golden transparent protective cover, trapping her inside just as it had previously confined the Tear Demon.

“What are you planning to do, Brother Shen? I truly only pursued the two of you to exchange for a Nine Brahmanic Lotus, with no other ulterior motives,” Lin Xinyue said, looking as if a gigantic peak had trapped her, making any movement difficult. She stopped resisting and gazed at Shen Luo with the pitiable innocence of a deer kicked for no reason, compelling an instinctive desire to protect.

“I am not Bai Xiaotian, and such Charm Techniques won't work on me. Tell me your real purpose. I have no interest in lies and won't hesitate to use special means to pry open your mouth,” Shen Luo said indifferently, and countless Gu insects flew out from behind him with a swish.

Some resembled maggots, others leeches, and some ants. They writhed together in a mass, creating an utterly repulsive sight.

“Are you a Gu Master?” Lin Xinyue's scalp tingled, with every hair on her back standing on end, her tone full of fear.
