From his chaotic and unfocused pupils, he also understood that this remnant soul probably didn't even have the memories of its original self.
This made him secretly disappointed, but then he felt fortunate.
If the opponent were more complete, he probably wouldn't be a match for him.
Without hesitation, he thrust the golden Soul-Suppressing Banner into its mouth.
As he made his move, he channeled his spiritual power, unleashing the power of the Soul-Suppressing Banner.
A blinding light emanated from the Soul-Suppressing Banner, instantly shattering the remnant soul into pieces.
He looked up, trying to see what tricks Su Bai still had up his sleeve, only to see a sly smile playing on his lips.
Bai Lin's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately realized that something was wrong.
He suddenly felt the surrounding seawater become cold and damp.
He looked down with a sense of unease and saw the remnants of the soul he had crushed with the Soul-Suppressing Banner turn into specks of light and fall into the water. The sculptures and waterways slowly began to light up.
The large bluefish above trembled, its eyes growing increasingly panicked.
It felt as if the entire palace below was a giant beast awakening, with unsettling auras spreading around it.
The big bluefish felt its body getting cold and suddenly became weak and powerless.
Bai Lin's expression also changed drastically.
He turned to look at Su Bai and instantly understood: "You did it?"
“It’s us!” Su Bai’s smile was sinister. “I should thank you.”
Bai Lin's face was gloomy. He raised the Soul-Suppressing Banner in his claws and used it as a fork to stab at Su Bai.
Su Bai stopped attacking and instead kept dodging.
During the pursuit, Bai Lin clearly sensed that Su Bai's aura was getting stronger.
A faint crimson hue filled the seawater, constantly gathering towards its body.
Now Bai Lin completely understood.
The remnant soul hidden in the Soul-Suppressing Banner was merely bait, and also the catalyst that truly activated this great formation!
The Corpse Sect cultivator who controlled Su Bai's body must be the instigator!
He modified the formation, using the remnant soul to power it, allowing the formation to barely maintain its state.
His true soul, or rather, the remnant soul that retained its own consciousness, was hidden in the zombie he had created.
Now that the formation has been fully activated, the "blood beads" that have been accumulated within it for so many years are being absorbed by him in another form!
Through that dragon scale, Bai Lin could clearly sense that as Su Bai's strength increased, his consciousness and even his soul were also growing stronger, and were even assimilating with that body.
This Corpse Sect cultivator had been plotting for millions of years, attempting to be resurrected in this way!
Bai Lin's attacks missed time and time again.
When they discovered that Su Bai's aura was rapidly changing, he was already on the verge of becoming a flying zombie.
His hair had taken on a green tinge, and he was on the verge of breaking through to the Spirit Zombie realm.
This strength was comparable to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator. Combined with the zombie's impervious body and the sinister techniques of this Corpse Sect cultivator, Bai Lin found it troublesome.
He knew he couldn't delay any longer.
If we wait until Su Bai completes his transformation, his true form will likely descend, and we will be unable to stop him no matter what we do.
This is a catastrophe for humanity, and it will do him no good either!
Thinking of this, Bai Lin stared at Su Bai, his divine sense spreading out and instantly connecting with the dragon scales in his sea of consciousness.
After sensing the presence of the dragon scales with his divine sense, a ruthless glint flashed in Bai Lin's eyes. He then used his divine sense to attack the dragon scales, causing them to explode completely!
An invisible ripple flashed across the seawater.
Su Bai's body trembled slightly, then remained motionless, gently swaying with the seawater.
Bai Lin's dragon soul also trembled slightly, and a trace of fatigue flashed in his eyes.
These dragon scales, which can be used to transform the Dragon Guards, are all formed from his most primal power. Each one consumed is a significant cost to him, and it takes several years or even decades for them to regrow.
He really didn't want to do that unless absolutely necessary.
The power released when the dragon scales explode is enough to easily erase the soul of anyone whose strength does not exceed his. If concentrated, it is not impossible to kill someone of a higher level.
The big bluefish looked down at the white forest from afar, its eyes filled with boundless respect and admiration.
It may not be the most capable, but it has a good eye for opportunity.
It could see Su Bai's situation clearly. He had seemed confident of victory earlier, but now he was silent and had obviously been completely killed by his master.
"As expected, Master is still the most powerful!" The big blue fish straightened its body, feeling proud.
Bai Lin sensed the big blue fish's emotions, glanced back at it, then looked away and focused his gaze on the silent Su Bai.
He enveloped it with his divine sense and examined it carefully from the inside out, confirming that there was no trace of consciousness remaining inside.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't help but sigh as well.
He had originally hoped that the zombie could become his help, but unexpectedly, the Corpse Sect cultivator had left a contingency plan on it, which could only turn it into a shell.
Even if dragon scales were reintroduced into its sea of consciousness, it would only turn it into a dragon puppet with only instincts left, like Watanabe Ichijo.
He shook his head, dismissing the idea of "making use of it," and then thought of another problem.
What happened to this Corpse Sect cultivator? Why did he leave behind such a backup plan?
Was he forced into this situation by the cultivators of the Dragon Transformation Sect, or was this old silver coin someone who had planned this in advance with the idea of having multiple escape routes?
Bai Lin looked down at the palace complex, thinking to himself that the answer must be here.
As he carefully examined the buildings, pondering where to begin, he suddenly noticed something unusual.
The Corpse Sect cultivator hidden inside Su Bai's body had been completely crushed by him, but the sculpted waterways were still glowing faintly, and the traces of bloody aura in the seawater were still spreading outwards continuously.
The sacrificial altar array is still in operation!
The ease on Bai Lin's face vanished, replaced by an unprecedented solemnity.
This Corpse Sect cultivator was not completely wiped out; he still had a backup plan!
After looking around, another figure suddenly flashed through his mind.
Suhei!
He thought of the entrance through which the giant bluefish entered, and then of the area that Su Bai had explored. In his mind, he had already sketched out the location covered by this palace complex.
This underground sea area happens to surround the island nation, and Suhei is currently there.
Upon realizing that he could no longer sense Su Hei's presence, Bai Lin immediately understood.
Sea fish clearly couldn't satisfy this Corpse Sect cultivator's appetite; his real plans lay on the island nation's mainland!
