42: The Art of Subduing Spirits

On the field.

Wang Bing’s mouth curved into a wild, arrogant smirk.

“Hehehe! Feng Xingtong, do you really think you’ve got me cornered?”

Zhang Lingyu looked at the calm and composed Wang Bing, and immediately concluded that this person must have a trump card.

At this moment, Feng Xingtong had already summoned Liu Kunsheng, and all the spectators present felt waves of chill.

Wang Ye narrowed his eyes.

“I remember, Wang Bing is from the Wang family, right? As a descendant of one of The Ten Elders, he should have some tricks up his sleeve, shouldn’t he?”

Lin Yuan chuckled, “Hehehe, of course he has tricks. Otherwise, why would Feng Xingtong’s Liu Kunsheng be so slow to descend?”

As soon as he said this, everyone looked at the two people on the field.

Liu Kunsheng, summoned by Feng Xingtong, was transforming into a huge mass of black Qi, circling in the air, unable to descend, as if fearing something.

“Hmm? Uncle Liu!? What’s wrong with you?”

Feng Xingtong looked at Liu Kunsheng in surprise. It was the first time he had discovered that his Soul Summoning had failed.

“Hehehe! Feng Xingtong! Soul Summoning! You’re not the only one who knows it!!”

Wang Bing’s eyes glowed green, and he made a grabbing motion at the giant python above.

“Come here!!!”

The next second, Liu Kunsheng was directly and forcefully pulled over by Wang Bing.

“It’s Soul Summoning!? You actually know Soul Summoning! How is that possible!?”

Feng Xingtong looked at Wang Bing in shock.

“No! I absolutely cannot let you have Uncle Liu!!!”

Feng Xingtong frantically circulated the Qi within his body, beginning to contend with Wang Bing for Liu Kunsheng.

The two immediately started a fierce confrontation, and the battle directly entered a white-hot stage.

Lin Yuan stared intently at the two, sensing the unique power of the Heaven and Earth Restrictions.

After comprehending Soul Summoning from Wang Ye, his understanding of this abstruse and difficult power of Heaven and Earth Restrictions gradually became clearer.

Lin Yuan was completely immersed in these two forces of Heaven and Earth Restrictions, oblivious to everything around him. He had now entered a state of self-forgetfulness.

On the spectator stands.

All the audience members were startled.

“What!? Wang Bing actually knows Soul Summoning!? Does that mean the Wang family also…?”

“That’s not right, I remember Soul Summoning belongs to the Feng family, doesn’t it?”

“This I don’t quite understand.”

Wang Ye stroked his chin and analyzed, “It seems the relationship between the Wang family and the Feng family isn’t simple. They can even give away Soul Summoning.”

Zhang Lingyu nodded.

“And it looks like Feng Xingtong is unaware, so it must be something between Feng Zhenghao and Wang Ai.”

Feng Shayan stood rooted to the spot for a long time.

Soul Summoning had always been a unique skill of the Feng family. She had never heard that her father had given away Soul Summoning at any point.

She didn’t believe that Wang Bing could be like Lin Yuan, who could comprehend the Eight Wonders just by observing.

“Daoist Wang Ye, can you tell how Wang Bing secretly learned it?”

Hearing Feng Shayan’s question, Wang Ye shook his head.

“For this matter, I’m afraid you can only ask your father, or True Person Lin Yuan.”

Saying this, Wang Ye pointed at Lin Yuan.

But the next second, he was completely dumbfounded.

“Oh my god!!! This…”

Wang Ye couldn’t help but blurt out a curse, because the scene before his eyes was simply too shocking.

“This… this isn’t scientific!?”

“What’s wrong? Daoist Wang Ye!?”

Zhang Lingyu immediately turned around and asked.

Feng Shayan looked at the so uncomposed Lin Yuan, also feeling a bit puzzled.

“Look at your junior brother! What kind of monster has your Tianshi Mansion produced!?”

Wang Ye had previously held a glimmer of hope, believing that Lin Yuan could only perceive and learn the Eight Wonders when fighting against their holders, and only then could he master them.

He had still underestimated Lin Yuan too much.

He hadn't expected that Lin Yuan could comprehend it just by observing. Is this even human!? How can one even play like this anymore?

Feng Shayan immediately understood Wang Ye’s meaning.

“True Person Lin Yuan is comprehending Soul Summoning!?”

Seeing this, Zhang Lingyu immediately motioned for everyone to be quiet, not to disturb Lin Yuan’s epiphany.

Feng Shayan was extremely shocked. For one person to master one of the Eight Wonders was already rare in the world, and now someone was attempting to master a second, which was completely unprecedented.

If Lin Yuan could truly accomplish this, it would surely shake the entire Outsider World.

At this moment, the battle on the field continued.

Seeing that he couldn't snatch Liu Kunsheng back anytime soon, a determined look flashed in Wang Bing's eyes.

“Heh heh, Feng Xingtong, your Soul Summoning is just a half-finished product. Never mind, let me teach you how to use Soul Summoning!”

Wang Bing grinned sinisterly, casually took out a spirit, and then swallowed it in one gulp.

“You actually eat spirits!?”

Feng Xingtong immediately felt a wave of disgust.

In his eyes, spirits were his companions, a form of life, even no different from humans.

Humans merely had one more physical body than spirits.

Wang Bing eating spirits was no different from eating people.

“Hahahahaha! Kid! The Art of Spirit Devouring, you don’t know about it, do you?”

After Wang Bing devoured the spirit, his strength instantly surged.

“Damn it! When did Soul Summoning have such a method of use!?”

Cold sweat immediately broke out on Feng Xingtong’s forehead. He absolutely couldn’t let him get Uncle Liu! Otherwise, it would truly be dangerous!

“Wang Bing!!! Let go of Uncle Liu right now!!!”

“I’ll fight you to the death!”

... On the spectator stands, Deng Youfu and Deng Youcai, seeing that Wang Bing was so perverse as to eat spirits, couldn't sit still. If Uncle Liu was really eaten by this kid, the trouble would be immense.

Lin Yuan looked at Wang Bing with some disgust, but he knew that Soul Summoning did not have the Art of Spirit Devouring; it was entirely a trump card left by Feng Tianyang.

In Lin Yuan's understanding, Soul Summoning should be about controlling small spirits to feed to larger spirits, eventually forming generals. If the Wang family ate too many spirits, their bodies would also slowly transform into spirit bodies.

Few people in the Wang family were good individuals.

“At this point, I beg you, Grandpa Zizhong!”

Feng Xingtong roared, directly summoning Wang Zizhong, one of the Nine Grandmasters.

Upon appearing, Wang Zizhong immediately performed acupuncture, inserting needles into Feng Xingtong's meridian points to forcefully clear his channels.

This allowed him to unleash a massive amount of Qi in a very short amount of time. Although it would cause great damage to his body, he couldn't care about that anymore.

Liu Kunsheng was borrowed from Deng Youfu. If anything happened to him, it would not only be a problem between the Deng and Feng families, but it would also go against his original intention.

On the spectator stands, Rong Shan, accompanied by a group of High-achieving disciples, surrounded Deng Youfu, Deng Youcai, and others.

“Gentlemen! This is a competition on the arena. Apart from the participants, no one else is allowed to enter!”

Deng Youfu roared hoarsely:

“Rong Shan!!! If anything happens to Uncle Liu today! We won’t live either!”
