Chapter 401: 401
“Ugff!!”
Lin Sheng stabbed his blade into the body of a dark spirit and twisted the blade .
Amidst a chilling scream, the dark spirit turned into ash as a dark spirit bead dropped onto the ground .
Picking up the dark spirit bead, Lin Sheng sat on the ground .
He was right in the middle of a sea of hills, and all around him were dark spirit beads .
There was a rather considerable tribe of dark spirits in the area . Lin Sheng had originally thought that they were all independent units . But here, Lin Sheng had even realized that dark spirits actually have names .
“Come out . ” Lin Sheng sat with his eyes closed on the hill, as he suddenly spoke in Deviltongue .
It was all quiet as a mighty dark red warrior in lightning-rune armor slowly walked up the hill .
“Djall Demonhand, here to meet you . ”
The dark spirit with the look of a warrior radiated a strong soul aura . And of all of the dark spirits that Lin Sheng had encountered so far, only the three Darkspirit Generals could fight against this one .
And the key thing was, this was the first one that did not attack him the moment it saw him .
Even if the latter was just a dark spirit, it piqued Lin Sheng’s interest .
“You’re not afraid of me?” Lin Sheng asked with interest .
His power and his attributes countered any dark spirit whole, plus his holy power made all of the dark spirits his food . So every dark spirit who had sen him either attacked him in a suicidal frenzy or simply looked on from afar in fear .

The dark spirit before him actually had the courage to meet him by himself, and that made Lin Sheng curious .
The dark spirit warrior called Djall Demonhand slowly sat down .
“My tribe, the Demonhand lives nearby, and if things were to go as it is, it’s on the path you must take .
“If I don’t do anything, perhaps this will be the day that my tribe and I meet our end . And I have no wish for that to happen . ”
“So you’re the chieftain of the Demonhand Tribe?” Lin Sheng asked .
“Yes, Sir . In return for you sparing us, I Djall Demonhand, chieftain of the Demonhand is willing to serve you, and be a part of your strength . ”
The dark spirit warrior lowered his head .
Servitude?
The atmosphere suddenly turned sullen .
This was the first time Lin Sheng saw a brave-enough dark spirit who was willing to talk terms with him .
The dark spirit before him had long surpassed the level of a General, but still below a Marshal . If he were to take him in, he would obtain a rather useful aide .
Lin Sheng was on the lookout for a complete dark spirit training regime, and he needed to find out how the dark spirits allow their souls to break through and to morph .
“Interesting . ” Lin Sheng smiled . “How sure were you that I wouldn’t have just slain you the moment you appeared?”
“I was not,” Djall Demonhand said with a low rumble . “I was taking a gamble, a gamble with fate . ”

A gamble with fate?
Lin Sheng could not help but laugh .
His soul now had already reached the limit of his body, and what followed was the increase of holy and dark powers within him .
The power of his soul, alongside his dark and holy powers, were mixed within his laughter, and the laughter created a powerful shockwave as it sent chills across Djall’s entire body as his blood roiled .
Only after a while did Lin Sheng stopped laughing .
“I want all of your tribe’s knowledge of your training methods, I want to know how a dark spirit grows and evolves . ”
“It will be my honor, Milord . ” Djall Demonhand heaved a sigh of relief, as he realized that the former was willing to take him under his wing .
In fact, he had no plans to go back alive upon coming here . The three Darkspirit Marshals had perished in their fight against him, so a mere General like him was definitely dead meat .
“Come with me, Milord . ” He got up and led the way as Lin Sheng followed closely behind .
The two got down the hill, and not too long later, they arrived at another giant hill . At the bottom of the hill was a medium-sized stone gate .
Djall pushed open the stone gate and led Lin Sheng in . Behind the door was a wide pathway decorated with all sorts of reliefs . All of the reliefs were images of all sorts of bizarre dark spirit shapes, and the engravings were particularly intricate .
“This is the Demonhand’s great library . ” Djall Demonhand brought Lin Sheng to a circular room . All along the walls were numerous shelves and on them were plenty of books .
“Milord, the dark spirit training method you require, we, the Demonhand have collected three different types,” Djall explained .
He then quickly pointed out the locations of the three books .

“The Grandspecter system, the Vilegheist system, and the Arcanespirit system . ”
Lin Sheng went over and picked a book from the Grandspecter system . In it was steps on how a dark spirit could improve themselves step by step in Deviltongue .
This system was mainly on how to consume other dark spirits, but what Lin Sheng was concerned about was the final evolution and breakthrough the limit .
He then flipped to the end of it, toward the part on breaking through the General or Marshal level . Among the dark spirit hierarchy, there was a marshal above the general, and that was the being in which the soul truly evolved .
If not for his natural suppressive abilities and the limitless strength of his soul plus a horde of underlings as a shield, he would have been taken out by a Darkspirit General .
A dark spirit’s ability was mostly focused on the power of the soul, and if it was being shackled, then the dark spirit was rendered harmless .
In fact, Lin Sheng had taken advantage of the two Palatinates within him, the Night Lord and Tenko Kasumi . Those two had mostly taken on every soul damage Lin Sheng had received .
Very quickly, Lin Sheng had reached the part on the soul’s evolution, achieving a breakthrough, and becomes a General .
“…Being a General requires one to first understand a concept .
“Everything in this world, every life, every power, and every material all has its own Rimtide .
“The Rimtide is located in a faraway place beyond the knowledge of anyone within countless dimensions and countless universes . It is like the Lavatide that the Stone Giants communicated with, or the Pyretide of the Flamelords, or the Sylvantide of the Sylphs .
“Be it any power, there is a place where the extremes of powers converge . There is a myriad of things in the world, and everything has its own Rimtide .
“This sea of pure power is the place to reach .
“So, we dark spirits need to communicate with our own Soultide “
At the bottom of it was a series of necessary symbols needed to connect to the Soultide, and the aura and frequency required as well .
Communicating with a Rimtide located in a faraway location was something every existence would need to take much care of .
More importantly, Lin Sheng had seen the visages of the Palatinates here .
The Dark power system was obviously communicating with the Eventide .
Now, aside from the Eventide, there was another method to communicate with the Rimtide before him .
The Soultide… It sounded like it was a direction and channel better suited for both dark and holy powers compared to the Eventide .
As both holy and dark powers were extensions of the soul, the Soultide was specially chosen by the dark spirits as the best conduit for the soul system .
After reading all of the details, Lin Sheng decided to choose the Soultide as the direction of his breakthrough evolution .
He then quickly read through the other two systems and found the details inside were almost the same .
Darkspirits Generals at this level could faintly communicate with a bit of the breath of the Soultide, and use it to strengthen themselves .
On this matter, the Soultide was much stronger than the Eventide .
Based on the tome, the Rimtide had distinctions in distance and strength, and one would need to choose the most suitable Rimtide as their own direction .
