"You think I don't know what you're planning? In this circumstance, you're still trying to scheme against me. Fine, I'll just kill you outright. Scum like you, willing to collude with the Demon Tribe, aren't even worthy of being my slave or dog. Once you're dead, I'll plunder your memories, and won't miss anything I want to know."
With those words, Qin Chen reached out and enveloped Li Luo's soul, truly beginning the refinement process. The Heaven Soul Forbidden Art was executed, and the terrifying soul-stealing force instantly penetrated into Li Luo's soul. Various memories began to manifest.
"Ah!"
Li Luo's soul fluctuated violently, screaming miserably.
"Qin Chen, even in death, I won't let you off."
As his memories began to unfold, his soul started to collapse, and an invisible force traced back to the origin, completely obliterating Li Luo's soul power. Along the void soul bridge, it directly wiped out the soul seeds he left behind.
Soul fire resurrection is a specialty of some strong individuals, but the Heaven Soul Forbidden Art practiced by Qin Chen has the ability to annihilate these secret arts.
Boom! In a forbidden area of the Yunzhou Soul Fire Family's Li family, a soul seed being worshipped directly exploded into nothingness.
Thus, this time, Li Luo was completely, thoroughly dead with no possibility of resurrection.
The memories in Li Luo's mind, as well as his Earth Saint Law, all became Qin Chen's.
Buzz! His power was slowly devoured by Qin Chen, becoming his own insight.
It was unclear how much time had passed. It could have been half a month or a full month.
The glow of the Heaven Saint began to appear on Qin Chen's body. Of course, these were just some illusions, as Qin Chen was still a step away from the pinnacle of Earth Saint, unable to immediately step into the Heaven Saint realm. His accumulation was still lacking.
The aura of the pinnacle Earth Saint began to manifest on Qin Chen, but he was still just a hair's breadth away from breaking through.
"What a pity, Li Luo's Heaven Saint Law wasn't complete, just a half-step Heaven Saint. Otherwise, I would have certainly used it to step into the pinnacle Earth Saint realm. But now, I've only touched the threshold."
Qin Chen awakened, shaking his head.
"Let's see what treasures are in Li Luo's storage ring?"
In the storage ring, the vast treasures were all transferred to the Qiankun Creation Jade Disc.
First, there was a massive quantity of Saint Origin Pills.
Each pill emitted an enticing aura. Qin Chen used his divine sense to scan and count them; there were over ten thousand pills, each full and robust. Moreover, they were all earth-grade pills that were beneficial to pinnacle Earth Saints.
This was clearly the accumulated wealth of the entire Soul Fire Family over countless years.
In addition to this, countless techniques, supernatural powers, and martial skills surged in like a tide, merging into Qin Chen's body, refined by the Sky Patch Art. Some top-grade pills were sealed by Qin Chen.
Unfortunately, there were no supreme Heaven Pills.
However, Qin Chen had obtained two bottles of supreme Heaven Pills in the Yan Luo Secret Realm, so he wasn't disappointed. Qin Chen planned to refine these supreme Heaven Pills when breaking through to the pinnacle Earth Saint.
At present, his insight was still insufficient to rush into the pinnacle Earth Saint realm, but it was only a matter of time. After refining Li Luo's origin, Qin Chen gained a trace of understanding of the Heaven Saint Law, which naturally accelerated his insight into the pinnacle Earth Saint Law.
Of course, in the storage ring, there were also a large number of Saint Crystals, over a billion lower-grade Saint Crystals, and even several million middle-grade ones.
For ordinary people, this was simply an astronomical number.
But Qin Chen didn't care. Compared to the ancient Saint Vein obtained from the Yan Luo Demon Tribe, Li Luo was practically a pauper.
"Now, I've taken another step towards the pinnacle Earth Saint and the Heaven Saint path. It's time to head out."
