One skill point per second, I turn fireballs into forbidden spells.

Chapter 1038 Call for help? I know this one well.
"Look, in terms of soul manipulation, your control is inferior to mine. Originally, my divine power level was lower than yours, but now, there should only be one possibility: your soul manipulation divine power is female, and mine is male. When a female sees a male, she has to obey the male, which is why she is suppressed by me. Do you agree?"

After saying this, Lin Yi raised an eyebrow, the sarcasm in his eyes was self-evident.

It's one thing that I'm not as good as Lin Yi at soul manipulation, but what I didn't expect was that Lin Yi had such a wild idea that divine power could be divided into male and female.

Isn't this implying that, compared to Lin Yi, he, the God of Soul Gathering, is nothing more than a woman?

Thinking of this, Juhun was so angry that he was practically fuming. He pointed at Lin Yi and started stammering.

"I, I, you, you."

What kind of nonsense is this, that divine power has male and female distinctions? Isn't this just blatant self-humiliation?

However, after thinking for a long time, the God of Gathering Souls still couldn't come up with any words to refute Lin Yi.

"What's wrong? Why can't you speak properly? Well, it's normal for a woman to speak like that."

After saying that, Lin Yi increased the output of his divine power and gave an order to the soul source he had come into contact with: disconnect from the support of the Soul Gathering God and break free from the control of the Soul Gathering God.

After issuing the order, Lin Yi also infused some of his divine power into the ghosts released by the Soul Banner, helping them resist the God of Soul Gathering.

Driven by both the will to survive and the power of purer soul control, some slightly stronger ghosts actually severed their connection with the God of Soul Gathering.

It’s really raining all night when the house leaks!
Before the rebuttal could be properly organized, Lin Yi pulled this stunt, completely breaking the God of Soul Gathering's defenses.

Having finally regained some of his divine power, the task he was about to undertake was something the Soul Gathering God could normally do with his eyes closed.

The spirits within the Soul Banner had long been refined by the God of Soul Gathering and were at his command. Without Lin Yi's support, how could they dare to oppose the God of Soul Gathering?

If the divine power had been used elsewhere, even in a fight against Lin Yi, that would have been one thing. But now, it has to be used in such a boring place. The sense of disappointment in his heart is not something that can be easily filled.

"Damn brat, are you looking for death? You've ruined my plans time and time again. Don't you feel comfortable just waiting to die?!"

The expression of the God of Gathering Souls grew increasingly ferocious, as if he wished he could devour its flesh and drink its blood.

Unfortunately, these threats had no effect on Lin Yi whatsoever.

"Of course. Having finally arrived at such a high-level secret realm, I have no intention of leaving without obtaining any valuable treasures."

"Everyone, I almost forgot. The guy in front of you is planning to convert your soul essence into his own divine power. Judging from this pace, he must have used you a lot in the past. He doesn't care about your lives in battle, and now he makes you risk your complete annihilation to help him recover mana. Can you tolerate this?"

The ghosts could not speak, but their bodies flickered with light, as if to express their resentment towards the god of gathering souls.

"Since everyone is so excited, let's not just sit idly by. Those of you who just broke free from control, I'll help you reclaim all the source power you gave up, and I'll give you your freedom back. What do you all think?"

No, no! What the hell is this thing? The ghost I refined has just joined Lin Yi's ranks and is now opposing me. Does that make sense?

Before the Soul Gatherer could even utter a curse, the ghost, already freed from control, began to move.

They once again gathered the power of the soul's origin, transforming into a tentacle that connected to the God of Soul Gathering.

Once the skill 【Soul Gathering】 is activated, the soul that has been refined by the God of Soul Gathering will be granted the permission to link with the Soul Gathering Source.

Even if the refined ghosts break free from the control of the Soul Gathering, they still retain this authority.

Everything in the world is a collection of contradictions. The great philosopher was right: nothing can be all good; it will always come with side effects.

Sure enough, the side effects appeared immediately.

The God of Soul Gathering was momentarily stunned, unsure of what to do. Activating the [Soul Gathering] skill did not require divine power or primordial energy, but its cooldown was quite long. If he didn't interrupt the spellcasting, he couldn't guarantee how much of his soul essence those uncontrolled ghosts would draw from him.

However, if he pauses, his divine power recovery will immediately stop, and at that time, not only will he be unable to subdue the Fuxi Talisman, but the probability of even defeating Lin Yi will be greatly reduced.

What should we do?

Just as he was struggling with the gathering of souls, he suddenly remembered that the group of guys behind him seemed to have recovered to about 70-80%.

Sure enough, after discovering that Juhun was in trouble, the more than seventy high-level gods behind him rushed out and attacked Lin Yi.

"Brother Soul Gatherer, we're here!"

That unified shout moved everyone present, and tears welled up in their eyes.

With red eyes and a loud voice, he arrogantly shouted at Lin Yi.

"Boy, you've lost. Even if you had the upper hand in a one-on-one fight today, so what? We gods have plenty of people, and although their power hasn't fully recovered, you think you can escape alive from the siege of so many superior gods whose divine power level is far superior to yours!"

Juhun was absolutely right.

Even if it's just a momentary burst of power, the combined force of over seventy high-level gods attacking together is something Lin Yi could never withstand.

Once Lin Yi is affected, control of those ghosts will return to the God of Gathering Souls.

At that time, he can take advantage of the moment when Lin Yi is seriously injured or killed to fully recover his divine power.

"Should I call for help? I can call for help too."

For Lin Yi, using numbers to fight against fewer people was never a dishonorable thing.

Why fight one-on-one when you can gang up on someone?

With so many human resources unused, are we just going to let them sit there like decorations?

After dodging the Soul Gathering God's attack, Lin Yi snapped his fingers, and a gate filled with the aura of the dead appeared without warning above the head of the Soul Gathering God.

Its unique aura was easily detected, and naturally, it couldn't escape the attention of the God of Gathering Souls.

The instant the God of Souls subconsciously raised his head, the pitch-black gate to the dead opened, and countless densely packed figures fell from it.

Ahhhhh!
Holy crap, what is this thing?!
Isn't this our divine weapon? Why are these guys attacking us?

Holy crap, have they gone mad? Insubordination! And how did they even get into the secret realm?

No, these aren't ordinary divine weapons. They don't have the aura of any living being on them. Damn it, this guy broke my hand.

For a moment, screams and curses filled the air.

More than seventy high-ranking gods were caught off guard by this sudden appearance of divine soldiers.

With the support of high-level divine power, they were naturally not afraid of these undead divine soldiers.

The problem is that they are in a terrible state right now. The little bit of divine power they managed to gather immediately withers away as soon as they are released.
