After the battle ended, Lin Dong put away the Yangxin Sword. He gazed at the ground, at the Yagi Pearl and the remains of the Orochi, which had turned into pieces of flesh.
He was just about to reach out and pick up the Yagi Pearl.
Suddenly, something unexpected happened.
The Yagi Pearl, which had been silent, suddenly emitted a dazzling light. Within that light, it seemed something was slowly awakening.
Lin Dong's heart was shocked, and he immediately watched the Yagi Pearl with caution. As he saw the light gradually disperse, a soul remnant emerged from within, flying into Lin Dong's body.
The soul remnant wanted to seize Lin Dong's body.
Lin Dong had encountered in some ancient books that when some Heavenly Realm Martial Artists die, their divine soul lingers within the 'soul instrument.'
Some wait for the 'predestined person.'
If someone picks up that soul instrument and it finds the flesh suitable, it will fly into the person's body to seize it.
