Bang!
Just as Ye Zhen cast the Soul-locking Technique and probed a thread of Divine Soul Power into Abbot Zhaoshi's Innate Divine Soul, a tremendous Divine Soul Wave suddenly erupted from within Zhaoshi's soul.
In an instant, Abbot Zhaoshi's Innate Divine Soul was blown to smithereens, and Zhaoshi's soul scattered, leaving Ye Zhen with nothing.
This unexpected scenario, while unforeseen by Ye Zhen, was also within reason.
Zhaoshi was the abbot of a Heavenly Temple branch; even if not the most key figure, he was still a high-ranking officer, surely privy to some unknown secrets of the temple.
Ye Zhen had long anticipated that Abbot Zhaoshi's soul might be guarded by a powerful Divine Soul, thus he utilized the Soul-locking Technique obtained from Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit Achou.
In Ye Zhen's mind, as long as he could control Abbot Zhaoshi's Innate Divine Soul, then he could extract any secret from Zhaoshi at will.
