……

Heimers has let go, but the gatekeeper of the castle cannot.

The gatekeeper, Basil, wore a long black and gray robe, held a withered wooden scepter, and wore a strange mask.

Zheng exclaimed in disbelief, "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! Is this still a mid-level god?"

"How can he be so strong?"

"Charge them!"

As if unable to accept reality, he controlled Saba to charge towards Heimers, with Conrad following closely behind. As a result, Heimers smashed Saba's disgusting skull with a single punch and then killed Conrad with a single sword strike.

"Pah! I've been putting up with you for far too long!"

Hemos unleashed his divine power, annihilating the residue on the golden fist. He was somewhat disgusted, because the fist was too easy to handle.

Therefore, a sword was used to kill Conrad.

"What a piece of trash!"

"Compared to this Heimers, what use are you two pieces of trash?"

Having lost all the Yellow Armor and Black Armor warriors in succession, and now with Saba also killed by Heimus, Basil's only remaining hope lies in the Fortress of Barriers and himself.

"Why? Why is this mid-level god not under the control of my soul?"

Bassim, also known as the gatekeeper of the Fortress of Shadows, is a five-star demon who cultivates the rules of death.

Hiding in the ancient castle was also for the purpose of cultivating the rules; the yellow-armored man and the black-armored man were his accumulation of countless years.

"Yes, and Salif too!"

Bassim suddenly remembered that his soul was controlling a five-star demon.

What's the big deal if the Black-Armored and Yellow-Armored Men are wiped out? One Salif can make up for it.

"No, we can't let those thirty mid-level gods go either!"

"Lord Salif, where are you?"

Enveloped in endless yellow sand, apart from Heimos, only thirty of the thousand demon examinees remained.

But now, they have completely lost Salif's protection.

Bassim also had a tough time, having lost almost all of his power in order to control Salif with his soul.

"I didn't expect that Salif would be so weak in terms of his soul?"

"Hmph, Heimers, is that it? Wait till I've dealt with those examinees, and let's see how you handle that!"

"Now, it's finally time for me to examine my harvest."

Beneath the menacing mask, Bassim's deep green eyes gleamed with an eerie light.

……

"Oh, Lord Salif?"

Heimers wandered aimlessly throughout the Fortress of Barriers, but still couldn't find the exit.

Upon suddenly encountering an acquaintance, he naturally wanted to ask for directions.

No one answered; only Salif strode heavily toward Heimers.

"Boom!"

Before Heimers could ask again, the flaming longsword slashed diagonally.

Clang!

Hemerus's sword shattered. With the power of a mid-level divine artifact and mid-level divine power, it was no surprise that his weapon broke when he slashed with all his might against a five-star demon.

"Holy crap, something's not right!"

At the critical moment, he casually punched away the long sword that was still coming down.

"Being controlled by a soul?"

In the world of Panlong

The Death Rule's soul control is extremely advanced; it will not destroy the soul and will of the controlled person.

It merely leaves behind a soul seed, allowing the controlled to obey the controller's commands at the soul level.

But they are still different in the end.

For example, Di Lin and Tarosha, who were controlled by Mo Si's soul, always had a blank expression.

Now, Heimers also saw blankness in Salif's eyes.

"Bang!"

But even though he saw it, he seized the opportunity and punched the other person in the face.

Salif's figure flew backward.

"Boom!"

The Shadow of Mist was activated again, and Heimers' figure moved swiftly through a space with a diameter of tens of meters.

Wisps of mist arise, a mist that can obscure divine sense, combined with a powerful technique that blends strength with the mysteries of gravity and space.

His fighting style was spontaneous.

"Bang bang bang~!"

Having just been controlled by a soul, Salif's divine body and the ocean of souls became less coordinated.

As soon as the battle began, he was completely at a disadvantage.

"This Hemerus probably has a big secret!"

The frustration of being immune to his soul control multiple times before was swept away.

"That's great!"

Bassim was getting more and more excited.

"If I could uncover this guy's hidden secrets, why would I still be hiding in this godforsaken place?"

"Saliv, you used a soul attack to interfere with Heimers!"

The tattered sound appeared directly in Salif's soul.

Beneath the helmet, a hint of struggle flashed in Salif's eyes.

But his soul ocean trembled and automatically took over his actions.

"Boom!"

Rings of fiery red light appeared out of thin air, and a ball of flame seemed to break through the rings like Sun Wukong.

The instant it shot out of its eyes, it pounced directly at Heimers.

The soul attack arrived in an instant.

"Boom!"

A crimson, illusory flame suddenly erupted from Hemerus's body.

The flames were almost tangible.

But he felt no pain, and the crimson illusory flames did not cause any real damage, but instead burned straight into his soul ocean.

"Boom!"

The sea of ​​Heme's soul was instantly engulfed in a raging inferno.

"I'm here!"

Noticing that Heimers was frozen in place, Basil suddenly lunged forward, his pale fingers reaching straight for Heimers' head.

"Hahaha!"

Pale hands, a ferocious smile.

"Let's see how you carry that?"

According to the rules of death, unless the soul is perfect and without flaws, stagnation of the soul is equivalent to death.

Once controlled by a soul, unless the controller actively releases the control, the controlled person will forever remain a slave unless they break through to the Great Perfection.

"Boom boom boom~!"

The supreme power of death within Bassim surged, and terrifying soul power frantically poured into his palm.

"As long as I can control this Hemerus with my soul, I am willing to spend hundreds of years recuperating for it."

at this moment,

He had already sacrificed his soul to unleash the Soul Seed.

Opportunities are fleeting!

With Salif's soul attack as a boost, Basil didn't think he had any chance of losing.

Chapter 23 Follower Ritual

"Boom!"

The Sea of ​​Heimers' souls boiled, like a cataclysmic disaster, with terrifying, scorching flames burning.

His mind was in constant turmoil.

"Click click click~!"

The silver canopy protected the soul, allowing it to stand firm amidst the raging flames.

"Swish swish~!"

Just then, the Soul Seed that Bassim used to unleash all his soul power, even at the cost of overdrawing his soul, arrived.

The power of the soul transformed into black flames the moment it entered Heimus's sea of ​​consciousness, heading straight for the silver sky in the center of the soul ocean.
