If it weren't for that moment of daze, how could he have let this guy escape?
Even with the power of faith, he now possessed absolute strength.
In less than an instant, he and Qi Tian appeared before the Entity.
"I said, let me go and live my own life for a while. My soul has existed for over nine hundred years, but I only have one year of activity time. Don't stop me." The Entity stared at the two who had suddenly appeared before him, his voice deepening, "Don't you understand?!"
At this moment, the Entity's voice carried a hint of impatience.
He truly longed to break free from here and experience this world properly, to experience what he had only been able to see in memories from other souls, to hear only from others' mouths.
Therefore, to achieve this goal, he was willing to do anything.
This time, Lin Xiao saw the Entity's vulnerability. He narrowed his eyes, "I'm very sorry, but I don't think I'll be letting you go anytime soon."
"Why? Didn't I make myself clear? Or do I have to lock you up too before you'll let me go?" The Entity's emotions became even more agitated. Then, his appearance, like his anxiety, began to change. From the original appearance, which bore some resemblance to both Lin Xiao and Qi Tian, it now became identical to Lin Xiao. He stared at Lin Xiao, "Why don't you let me replace you, let me experience your life..."
"That's not allowed."
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Xiao's blade pierced his body, "I forbid it."
The next second, the form conjured by the Entity was split in half from the abdomen by Lin Xiao.
"Splitting himself apart with his own hands, Lin Xiao is truly formidable," Qi Tian said from behind, giving a thumbs-up. At this moment, his puppet had already brought the first group of people out of the dungeon.
Just as the Entity had said, everyone was alive and well. Aside from the fear of being imprisoned, there were no physical or mental injuries. They just needed to rest properly.
Those with weaker psychological conditions could receive counseling. At least, they were whole.
"It seems I've touched a nerve." However, this severed body did not result in the Entity's death. He simply looked down at his lower half, then used both hands to grab his lower and upper halves and reassemble them.
At this point, his emotions calmed down. He was no longer in a hurry to leave. Instead, he looked at Lin Xiao with great interest, "With your strength, your murderous aura, and the information I obtained about you from the Pope's memories."
"You must have no family. You've been killing people constantly all these years... but now your soul state is much more stable than before, and the disturbances that used to affect your soul state are gone. It's only been a little over a year... What did you encounter? Can you tell me? I'm very curious."
Like a curious child, the Entity stood before Lin Xiao. He had no intention of counterattacking. With his current strength, any counterattack would be futile, as Lin Xiao could not kill him anyway.
Lin Xiao toyed with the military knife in his hand, staring at the altered image of himself conjured by the Entity. Indeed, the effect of his strike was almost nonexistent.
