On Sea God Island, there were almost no soul tools. At night, the entire island had only some underwater treasures emitting faint light.
The only exception was the guest room where Lin Xiao was staying. On the table was a small lighting soul tool.
This was brought here by Lin Xiao himself. Although it wasn't overly bright, it was enough for him to see the situation inside the room clearly.
Perhaps because he came from the Holy Spirit Cult, he didn't really like the feeling of complete darkness around him.
Sitting on the bed, he slightly spread open his palm. In his palm was something that looked like an eyeball.
That was the last item left behind by the Evil Emperor after the previous battle.
It looked like an eyeball, but in reality, it was an external soul bone.
Lin Xiao wasn't surprised. After all, soul bones were formed based on the soul core that soul beasts possessed during their lifetime. For a soul beast like the Evil Emperor, whose entire strength was reflected in its spiritual power, the soul bone it could produce was almost only of this kind.
However, he already possessed a head bone. Among the six major soul bones, aside from the torso bone, he already had all the others.
Absorbing a head external soul bone could only be done before absorbing the head bone. Now, this soul bone's usefulness to him was much smaller.
Lin Xiao stared at his palm, slightly lost in thought. He wasn't only thinking about the whereabouts of this soul bone; his mind was more focused on the Spirit Monarch who had intervened later.
By the end, he could naturally tell that the Spirit Monarch's true body was not present there. What he had exerted was almost entirely the Evil Emperor's power.
But the Evil Emperor's power in his hands felt completely different.
By observing a small part, one could see the whole picture. Just from this, Lin Xiao could already guess the extent of the Spirit Monarch's power.
Moreover, looking back at the abyssal creatures he had already seen before, the complete arrival of the Abyss was probably not far away...
Just as Lin Xiao was pondering, a sudden sound of footsteps came from outside, interrupting his thoughts.
"Knock knock knock—"
"Brother Lin, have you already gone to rest?"
A moment later, Chen Haisheng's voice sounded from outside the door. Lin Xiao put away the Evil Emperor's external soul bone before slightly raising his voice, "Brother Chen, if you have something to say, come in and speak."
"Alright."
A response came from outside. Lin Xiao then heard the sound of Chen Haisheng pushing the door open.
Soon, the two were already sitting at the table. Chen Haisheng saw the lighting soul tool on the table emitting light, and his gaze would sweep over it from time to time.
Although it wasn't his first time seeing it, and Lin Xiao had mentioned that there were even more interesting soul tools on land, every time he saw some parts combined that could emit light on their own, he couldn't help but look at them a few more times.
"Brother Chen, what brings you here so late at night?"
"Oh." Chen Haisheng turned his head back. "Just now, someone from the island came to report that something similar to what happened in the merfolk clan's territory has occurred again."
Lin Xiao's spirits were immediately lifted. "Brother Chen, are you talking about the whereabouts of that soul beast?"
"Correct." Chen Haisheng nodded. "Previously, I thought the soul beast that attacked the merfolk clan's station was the one we dealt with."
"But now it seems that the merfolk clan's territory is precisely in the Ice Sea. After leaving the merfolk clan's domain, that soul beast didn't go far at all. Instead, it has been wandering in that sea area, looking for the next target."
At this point, Chen Haisheng's expression darkened. "Now another piece of news has come. I don't know which clan has suffered this time."
"Yes." Lin Xiao nodded slightly upon hearing this. "It looks like we need to speed up our actions a bit."
"Brother Lin is really willing to join hands?" Chen Haisheng had discussed this matter with Lin Xiao before. Now that the moment had truly come, he couldn't help but ask one more time.
"Naturally."
Chen Haisheng didn't know about Lin Xiao's other plans. His expression changed slightly. "Brother Lin is helping my Sea God Island like this, yet I can't represent Sea God Island to express thanks..."
Chen Haisheng paused slightly. "If in the future Brother Lin has any needs, I, Chen Haisheng, will naturally spare no effort."
"Brother Chen, what are you saying?"
Lin Xiao did not directly explain his purpose in searching for that soul beast. First, he wasn't sure whether that soul beast truly carried any of Electrolux's divine sense fragments, so he couldn't tell outsiders about Electrolux's matter.
Second, he also intended to take this opportunity to build a good relationship with Chen Haisheng. After all, whether it was his cultivation or the Sea God Island behind him, they were both forces that could not be ignored.
It was just that now, Chen Haisheng's reaction seemed even greater than he had anticipated.
"Brother Lin, since that's the case, we should act sooner rather than later. How about we set off right now?" Chen Haisheng seemed somewhat anxious.
"The distance from here to the Ice Sea is not short, and the journey will take quite some time. If we arrive late, I'm afraid that soul beast will have disappeared again."
"Alright. But Brother Chen only mentioned that it appeared in the Ice Sea earlier. Do you know the specific location?"
"I heard it's in the area close to the mainland. I don't know what that sea soul beast is doing approaching the mainland?" As Chen Haisheng spoke, his expression suddenly changed.
"Could it be the same as before... Brother Lin, when you were on the mainland before, have you ever heard of such a powerful soul beast appearing?"
Lin Xiao glanced at Chen Haisheng's expression and knew that he was overthinking it. He shook his head slightly. "There aren't many powerful soul beasts on the mainland. The soul beast we dealt with together before can be considered one of the top powerhouses on the mainland."
"Beyond that, it's impossible for there to be another soul beast that powerful that we don't know about. It must be a sea soul beast without a doubt."
As Lin Xiao spoke, his brows were also slightly furrowed. However, what he was worried about was not the origin of that soul beast, but its movements.
The area close to the mainland... There were two places in the Ice Sea close to the mainland: one was the Sun Moon Empire to the south, and the other was the Extreme North to the east.
But no matter which one the soul beast approached, it would not be good news for Lin Xiao.
Approaching the south naturally needed no further explanation. If it got close to a city like Eastsun City, that would be fine. But if it approached ordinary people without soul masters or soul engineers to protect them, those fishermen would probably suffer at the hands of that soul beast.
And to the east...
For some reason, whenever he thought of the Extreme North, Lin Xiao couldn't help but recall the Evil Emperor's final fate.
Back then, it had fled from the Evil Forest and lived far overseas, yet it was still targeted by the Abyss plane. The center that Lin Xiao used to attract the Abyss plane was located right in the Extreme North.
That soul beast was suddenly approaching the mainland, there was no telling if it was also related to the Abyss plane.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao let out a light sigh.
No matter what, what he could do now was only to find that soul beast's whereabouts as quickly as possible and locate it soon. Perhaps there would still be a chance to salvage the situation.
If that soul beast had also been influenced by the Abyss plane like the Evil Emperor, then it wouldn't be as easy to deal with as the Evil Emperor had been.
