Chapter 391 It turns out to be the power of the soul!
"No, this isn't right!"
After enduring another blow from the Ghost General, Jiang Sheng forced himself to calm down and secretly analyzed: "Since this ghost thing can't hurt my body but can give me a headache, it must have attacked something in my body, but... it's
soul!"
"It's a direct attack on my soul!"
Jiang Sheng raised his head suddenly and finally realized something: "The only reason why my body is not hurt and causes headaches is that my soul is attacked."
"That's it. No wonder all my methods have no effect on it."
Thinking of this, Jiang Sheng suddenly realized: "The so-called power of ghosts is the power of the soul, and I have it too!"
The power of the soul is an illusory but real mysterious force. Pure inner strength or true energy cannot cause harm to the soul. Only the soul can fight against the soul.
After making the guess, Jiang Sheng immediately tried to mobilize the power of his soul, blend it into his true energy and pour it into the Fish Intestine Sword.
At this moment, the ghost general struck again with his sword.
"Whether my guess is correct or not depends on this!"
Facing the sword that General Ghost slashed towards his head, Jiang Sheng swung his sword upward with his backhand to block it.
"Buzz!"
This time, when the swords collided together, the ghost general's broadsword did not penetrate the fish intestine sword like before, but was actually blocked, and a slight buzzing sound was produced.
"As expected!"
Jiang Sheng was immediately overjoyed and took the opportunity to step back, excited: "It turns out that the power of the soul can be used in this way. I have gained a lot from this battle!"
Among the memories that Jiang Sheng recovered, there was only no record about the soul.
This is also the reason why Jiang Sheng failed to see through the true face of the Ghost General immediately.
"Brother seemed to have blocked General Ghost's sword just now. Am I right?"
Wu Kaitian, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, asked Wu Kaishan uncertainly.
"I'm not sure either!"
Because the Ghost General and Jiang Sheng were so fast, Wu Kaishan could not determine whether Jiang Sheng blocked the Ghost General's attack or used his speed to avoid it.
"what happened?"
The great elder on the other side was also a little confused, mainly because the ghost general's previous attack was too smooth.
In addition, he had always believed that Jiang Sheng was still only at the seventh level of Qi refining, or at most the eighth level, and could not use the power of his soul at all.
"Since the power of the soul can be used in conjunction with the true energy, if I integrate it into the Nine Turns of Swallowing Heaven Art, will it also be able to swallow the power of the soul?"
Jiang Sheng stared at the ghost general with bright eyes.
The Nine Turns Swallowing Heaven Technique should be able to swallow all kinds of energy that has no owner or can be plundered in a targeted manner.
The reason why the power of the soul cannot be swallowed is because every soul has an owner.
For example, although this ghost general is very powerful, he relies on the soul of the great elder to manipulate and control him.
The Nine Turns of Heaven Swallowing Technique must also be guided by the power of the soul before it can be swallowed up.
Thinking of this, Jiang Sheng couldn't wait to verify it, and immediately took back the soul power on the Fish Intestinal Sword, and then integrated it into the inner meridians of the true energy.
"Impossible. This kid's cultivation level is not yet at the ninth level of Qi Refining. He is absolutely unable to use the power of the soul. He must have an illusion."
After pondering for a while, the Great Elder shook his head firmly, and then controlled the ghost general to continue attacking Jiang Sheng.
This time, facing the Ghost General's attack, Jiang Sheng did not resist, but allowed the Ghost General's sword to hack into his body.
"Sure enough, I thought too much!"
Seeing General Ghost's sword ignoring Jiang Sheng's defense as usual and slashing into his body, the Great Elder smiled contemptuously: "How could that kid use the power of the soul? He is just..."
Before the great elder could finish what he was saying to himself, General Ghost's sword got stuck in Jiang Sheng's chest. It did not cut through Jiang Sheng's body like before, and it seemed impossible to pull it out.
"Haha, it's true!"
Jiang Sheng laughed loudly. When the ghost general's sword entered his body, he instantly mobilized the power of his soul to wrap the opponent's sword around him, keeping it in his body, and then used his skills to try to devour it.
Unexpectedly, he could really use the ghost general's sword to wildly devour the opponent's soul energy.
"I was beaten badly by this damn thing before, and now it's finally my turn to use it as a tonic!"
Jiang Sheng stared greedily at the huge ghost general.
The power of the soul is a thousand times purer than the power of Yin evil, and the ghost general is so huge. If he can absorb all of it, Jiang Sheng can definitely return to his peak state and even achieve a breakthrough.
"what happened?"
Because the power of the ghost general's soul was so great that when he began to be swallowed by Jiang Sheng, the great elder did not notice it immediately and continued to manipulate the ghost general to withdraw the sword in confusion.
But no matter how the Great Elder manipulated him, General Ghost could not pull the knife out of Jiang Sheng's body, and angrily swung his left fist at him, and then his fist was stuck in Jiang Sheng's body, unable to move.
"The bastards of the Black Witch Cult are really heartless!"
As time went by, Jiang Sheng's face became increasingly ugly.
By devouring the ghost general's soul energy, Jiang Sheng discovered that the reason why the ghost general was so powerful was because it was formed from the souls of countless innocent people.
In other words, after the great elder murdered many innocent people through some special sorcery, he collected the souls of the victims and refined them, thus creating such a powerful ghost general.
It was precisely because the Ghost General's soul power did not all come from the Great Elder that the Great Elder did not discover it immediately when it began to be devoured by Jiang Sheng.
"You bastard, you are actually absorbing the ghost power from the ghost general."
As time went by, the refined soul power of the ghost general became less and less. As the great elder who controlled the ghost general, he suffered backlash, and then he realized that the situation was not good.
"You are the bastard! You killed so many people and refined their souls for your own selfish desires."
Jiang Sheng shouted with a gloomy face: "I will devour your ghost general today, which will be regarded as freeing the souls of those innocent people."
"impossible."
Confirming that Jiang Sheng was really devouring the power of the ghost, the great elder shouted in disbelief: "You only had the cultivation level of the seventh level of Qi refining at the beginning. How long has it passed? How could you have broken through to the ninth level of Qi refining and given birth to a soul?
"
"I'm too lazy to explain so much to you. I'll deal with you after I've devoured this damn thing."
Jiang Sheng frantically devoured the ghost general's soul energy, and his previously weakened aura began to recover quickly.
"That's unreasonable. Release my ghost general now."
The great elder roared angrily, and also worked frantically to take back the ghost general.
This ghost general is the killer weapon he refined by spending his whole life killing countless people and collecting their souls.
If he were to be completely swallowed by Jiang Sheng, he would not only suffer huge losses, but his own soul would also suffer horrific backlash.
Last time, because of Jiang Sheng's deception, the elder was beheaded with a single sword before he could summon the ghost general. I originally thought that using this trump card today would definitely kill Jiang Sheng, but I didn't expect that he would have to make a wedding dress for someone else.
The Great Elder tried his best to take back the Ghost General, but his methods were not worth mentioning in front of the Nine Turns of Heaven Swallowing Technique.
"puff!"
When the ghost general's size had shrunk from a three-meter giant to the size of a normal adult, the great elder suffered a violent backlash and spewed out a mouthful of blood uncontrollably. His whole body became extremely depressed.
