With a splash.
Beneath the bright sunny sky, two figures suddenly emerged from the sea.
These two figures looked exactly alike, and as soon as they appeared outside, they soared towards the sky.
After flying to an altitude of a thousand meters, the two began to survey the sea, searching for a suitable island.
They were already over a thousand li from Donghai City, so there were not many islands in this area.
However, they soon found a suitable island.
Lin Yu said, "Let's choose this island. It's neither too big nor too small, just right."
Lin Fan nodded, excitedly saying, "We're finally going to have a base. I'm going to hollow out this island and turn it into a secret base."
Lin Yu cautioned, "As you wish, but we still need to prioritize killing monsters."
"I understand, Main Body. Don't worry, it won't cause any delays," Lin Fan said, patting his chest in assurance.
The two moved quickly and soon arrived above the small island.
Looking down from the air, the island was a perfectly circular shape.
It was about ten thousand meters in diameter, with a small mountain in the center, densely forested and home to many seabirds.
The surroundings were beaches with tall coconut trees.
Lin Yu said, "Let's go down and take a look."
Lin Fan replied, "Brother, let me go first. If you kick the bucket, it'll be all over."
Lin Yu's face darkened, and he cursed with a laugh, "A dog's mouth can't spew anything but ivory."
Lin Fan chuckled and flew downwards.
As he descended, his puppet insects crawled ahead of him.
These puppet insects were extremely small, almost invisible if not looked at closely.
Lin Fan landed and waited for a while until the puppet insects had spread across the island, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother, there's no danger. Come down!"
Lin Yu then descended and landed on the island's beach.
Lin Fan said, "Brother, I've scouted around. There are quite a few wild beasts on this island, and there's a lake on the mountaintop. However, there's likely a ferocious beast in the lake. Apart from the lake, there's no other danger."
Lin Yu's heart stirred upon hearing this, and he became interested in the mountaintop lake.
"Let a clone go and check the lake. We can't be sure if there's a hidden ferocious beast in there," Lin Yu worried.
He then created a water clone and sent it to the mountaintop lake.
Lin Yu's consciousness attached itself to this clone.
The clone quickly flew above the lake.
Lin Yu manipulated the clone to dive into the water.
The water here was very cold and had a faint fishy smell, which made Lin Yu frown.
As he descended, he found no ferocious beasts, not even any water plants. It was truly strange.
Suddenly.
His vision went black, and his body was hit by something.
With a loud boom!
The clone dissipated and vanished.
On the beach.
Lin Yu opened his eyes.
Lin Fan inquired, "Brother, how was it?"
Lin Yu said gravely, "There's a big fellow in this lake, and its strength should be very high, at least ninth tier. It seems we need to recall some clones to eliminate this monster."
Lin Yu muttered to himself as he continuously summoned one hundred clones.
"Go, kill it!" Lin Yu said coldly.
The clones nodded and flew towards the mountaintop lake.
Arriving at the lake again.
The dark shadow reappeared, but this time there were many clones.
The being in the shadows did not succeed.
"Roar!"
A heart-shattering roar echoed.
Even Lin Yu on the beach felt a sense of dread.
However, the clones had no sentience and were naturally immune to such soul-searing abilities.
"Kill!"
Lin Yu connected with the clones again and shouted.
Sword energy!
Sword qi crisscrossed in the water, piercing towards the dark shadow.
"Roar!"
The dark shadow roared in anger, but finding that the opposing creatures were unafraid, it became somewhat anxious.
Suddenly, the surroundings began to grow cold.
Boom!
A beam of azure ice energy began to invade the lake water.
The lake water was rapidly freezing, and it was about to spread to the clones.
Lin Yu shouted, "Ancient Buddha Leg!"
His legs were enveloped in golden light, and with a Sumeru Buddha step, he dodged to the side and kicked out.
Instantly, beautiful lotus flowers appeared in the water, rushing towards the dark shadow.
As soon as they approached the dark shadow, the petals scattered like sharp steel blades, stabbing towards it.
Clang, clang, clang!!!
The lotus petals struck the dark shadow, emitting a metallic clang.
"What strong defense!"
Lin Yu maneuvered his clones to retreat a distance, staring at the ferocious beast below.
Unfortunately, the beast was hidden in the darkness, and he could only see its shadow, not its full form.
"Strong physical defense doesn't mean strong soul defense!" Lin Yu muttered to himself.
He immediately recalled his clones, then created new ones and cast the Soul Splitting Technique on all of them, temporarily granting them the ability to use soul skills.
Then, he sent them in again.
Still in that lake.
Seeing Lin Yu's clones return, the dark shadow furiously stirred up huge waves.
Lin Yu remained unmoved and shouted, "Cast Soul Slaying Technique!"
Boom!
A silent wave reverberated through the water.
A peculiar, invisible soul strike instantly crossed dozens of meters.
Like a sharp blade, it pierced towards the dark shadow's forehead.
The dark shadow shivered in fear and quickly dodged.
Unfortunately, this was not one Soul Slaying Technique, but one hundred!
It dodged this strike, but it could not dodge the other ninety-nine.
"Slash!"
A soul-deep shout instantly descended into the dark shadow's sea of consciousness.
One hundred soul strikes slashed towards the dark shadow's soul.
"Roar!"
It roared in anger, but it had no means to defend against soul attacks.
Strike after strike wounded it all over.
"Kill!"
Lin Yu's voice echoed in its mind.
The next moment, the hundred soul strikes merged into one, forming a giant sword that slashed at the dark shadow's soul!
"Wuuuuuuu~~~"
The dark shadow suddenly knelt on the ground, making a gesture of submission.
Lin Yu finally saw the appearance of the dark shadow.
Upon seeing it, Lin Yu's heart stirred, and the great sword did not fall.
He asked, "Do you submit?"
The dark shadow quickly kowtowed.
"You can understand what I'm saying?"
The dark shadow nodded quickly.
Lin Yu was surprised. It seemed this guy was a high-intelligence ferocious beast, which was quite rare.
After all, there were tens of thousands of ferocious beasts on Blue Star, but few possessed high intelligence.
"Since that's the case, I will leave a mark in your sea of consciousness. If you go back on your word, I can make you die in an instant!"
The dark shadow lay on the ground, trembling slightly.
Between the choices of death and submission, it rationally chose the latter.
Seeing it in this state, Lin Yu began to cast the restriction.
With a thought.
His soul power crossed thousands of meters and reached the mountaintop lake.
This was an ability Lin Yu had comprehended himself; it wasn't a profound skill, just a simple application of soul power.
His soul power entered the dark shadow's sea of consciousness.
It suddenly transformed into a spherical bead, lurking in the depths of its consciousness.
His clone's soul was in this ferocious beast's sea of consciousness. If it resisted, the clone would self-destruct, severely injuring or killing it.
After successfully casting the restriction, Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright, if you go back on your word, you will surely die!"
The ferocious beast lay on the ground, its expression a mixture of fear and submission.
