Chapter 397: Transcendence: Part 2
The continuous increase of soul power was giving Lin Sheng a vague impression that he was approaching a vague boundary, which he had never felt before .
As his soul power continued to build up, his perception of that boundary was becoming clearer . The feeling was that once he broke that hurdle, he might undergo some wonderful changes .
“The extension of the soul is a by-product of soul power, willpower, attention and mental strength . The stronger the soul, the more your perception of mental concentration will improve, and the quicker the increase in holy power and dark energy . This is a virtuous circle . ”
Lin Sheng’s body was gradually fading into a pure white line . Killing, ingesting, then next . The cycle repeated, and he was getting better at it .
Before he knew it, he had wiped out the entire dark-spirit population in the area . Unlike previously, things were not so smooth .
A silver-gray shadow burst out from the ground and attacked Lin Sheng from the side . He felt like a depressing blanket of coldness wrapping up around him .
“What is this?” Lin Sheng was threatened for the first time . He leaned to his left, dodging the attack of the shadow .
The shadow paused on the ground . It then turned around slowly, straightening his back . It was a humanoid monster covered in silver metal . On the back of its neck grew eight metal spikes that looked like spider legs, pointing in all directions .
This was not the most eye-catching; what caught Lin Sheng’s attention was the black chain wrapping around its body . The chain pierced through and out of his flesh and veins, and some were connected to the broken armor on his body .
“You broke the rules, outsider!” The monster warned in a hoarse voice . “You are going to break the balance . ”
“What then?” Lin Sheng waved the white sword in his hand . In a split second, he had come before the monster, striking down his sword at an angle with mercy .
But the monster was no slouch either . It stepped aside, just missing the sword .
“So this is your choice?” The monster spread out his arms and spun, flinging out the black chains from his body . The black chains began to spin by themselves as if they were living things—and actually there were .
Without warning, the chains flew toward Lin Sheng at once .
“Holy flame . ” Lin Sheng was calm as white flames rose around him . But these were not fires but extremely high concentrations of holy power, which when grouped together it formed a strange appearance .
There were few holy power skills Lin Sheng knew . But those he could use were all extremely practical . These skills were an inspiration from the dark energy system . His only real holy power skill was the self-developed holy power disc . No one except him knew about it .
The chains moved like a moth to a flame; they plunged into it, melted and dripped to the ground as black liquid .
The monster screamed in pain . Three slender dark-red tongues were twisting in its wide-open mouth .
“Gravedigger, come here!” The monster made a terrible scream as it rolled on the ground . Its back squirmed violently and split as a long thin red line appeared . After a moment of horrible shriek, the back of the monster split apart, and a white-haired old man with a sickle and four smoky arms rose out .

“Sickle of Agony . ” The Gravedigger struck his sickle at Lin Sheng using all his strength .
But there were over ten meters between them . For a moment, Lin Sheng thought he was mistaken . But he still stepped back to see how the old man would react .
He suddenly saw a flash of light only to find himself under the sickle as if he had moved toward it . This was rather unexpected .
He whisked his sword in an upward motion, intercepted the sickle . Easy-peasy . Just when he was about to strike down his sword to cut the black smoky arms, he again moved a dozen meters back to his original position . So his sword missed the targets, he retracted it back in .
“What’s this? So awesome!” This was the first for Lin Sheng . It was a teleportation technique performed irregardless of the object’s condition .
Pneumaleap . It was the powerful skill of the Gravedigger .
Here again, it involves the concept of a spiritual being . It is a concept that belongs to the realm of the dark spirits . Because each evil spirit has its inherent limits, this means that their spiritual position (status and class) is inherently different . The so-called spiritual position can be simply understood as a comparative change in status, position, pros and cons that happen in a short time .
Lin Sheng had struck with his sword twice in a row, and both times he returned without success . Right now, he was a little curious about this ability . He did not believe that this ability is unlimited .
Again, he waved his swords and attacked but was still deflected by the shift of position .

Lin Sheng frowned . Suddenly, holy power exploded in his sword, shooting out dozens of bright-white beams with half of them striking the unsuspecting Gravedigger . He wailed in pain . A large chunk of flesh was missing from his waist, purified by the beam of holy power .
“You only shift one target at a time? It was useless on a group of radiating beams!”
Lin Sheng stepped forward and thrust his sword into the Gravedigger’s chest .
A pure white light rose from a group of flame, pushing back the surrounding red slightly . After a short while, a fist-sized dark-spirit bead emerged from the flame . Lin Sheng took it in his hand .
His explosive power surpassed that of the Gravedigger by several levels . It was horrifyingly powerful . Lin Sheng could make three or four moves when the Gravedigger made one . This was the factor that set the two apart .
“The caretaker is dead! Oh, my god! You killed the caretaker!” A dark spirit in the front right far ahead screamed at Lin Sheng in horror .
“What’s wrong with its death? Does it matter?” Lin Sheng wondered, speaking in Deviltongue . He was getting better and better at it .
“The caretaker is the clone of the marshal . You’re dead, man! You’re dead! How dare you kill the marshal!” The dark spirit yelled .
Lin Sheng shot out a beam of holy light, piercing through the dark spirit as he watched it went up in flame, turned into a bead, and fell to the ground . He was surprised after ingesting the dark-spirit bead; the soul power this bead provided was equal to that of two Darkspirit Generals . Had it not been for his explosively repressive holy power, perhaps this would have been a protracted battle .

“Next . Let’s keep it going . ” Lin Sheng had not much expression on his face . He looked into the distance, randomly chose a heading, and flew in that direction .
He was unassailable wherever he went, killing all dark spirits that stood in his way instantly and collecting their dark-spirit beads .
