Chapter 8: Lifestealer
Wang Sheng was woken up by a hard pain, after waking up, he felt as if his soul had been torn apart, his head hurt incomparably, not to mention, the whole person was still confused and couldn't lift a little spirit, and it took a while to realize that there was something screaming and flying around in the room.

After Wang Sheng saw its appearance clearly, he understood the reason for his situation, his soul was indeed torn apart, and the part of his soul that was torn off was in the stomach of the monster in front of him at this time.
"! I said, why is it so quiet here, there is a Lifestealer. Think you've been left with chickens and dogs in this village, right? Wang Sheng looked at the Soul Eater and said suddenly.
Then he said angrily: "You dare to suck the soul of the paladin, don't pull me up if you die, do you know that cutting off the soul sucking halfway will hurt me a lot?" Looking at the way you put things together, you know that you are not a good ghost, and in that case, take advantage of your illness to kill you, lest you continue to harm others. ”
Wang Sheng, who had dealt with Lifestealers many times in his previous life, knew that the reason for the formation of Lifestealers was that even the Azeroths, who had tens of thousands of years of civilization, had not studied the reason, and their figures appeared from time to time on both the Earth and the planet Azeroth, but their appearance was definitely not a supernatural event, in the final analysis, it was just a special way of existence of some kind of energy.
Therefore, he was not frightened by the deformed appearance of the Lifeeater, and the paladin happened to be the nemesis of this kind of monster, so he did not hesitate to drag his tired body, ready to destroy this still weak Lifestealer, not giving it a chance to grow.
He struggled to get up from the ground and drew the sword from his waist, slowly walking towards the Lifestealer, who had been tormented by the power of the Light.
Crusader Strike!
The long sword passed through the Lifestealer's body and didn't cause any damage to it, which was expected, so Wang Sheng was not surprised, but continued to swing the second sword at the Lifestealer who pounced on him.
Crusader Strike! Holy energy release!
A dazzling sword slashed through Lifestealer's body, and its body flew upside down with a scream.
It turned out that in order to ensure that he inflicted the most damage on the Lifestealer, Wang Sheng took back the power of the Holy Light and stored a little Holy Energy when he took out the first sword, and then beat this Holy Energy together with the second sword, so that the power of the Holy Light of the two swords was superimposed, so that the effect of one plus one was greater than two or even greater than three.
This technique seems novel now, but in fact, it is nothing to a high-level paladin, a real paladin master can use any skill to recover the holy light storage holy energy, and can also do any skill to superimpose the holy energy, and Wang Sheng was also among the masters in his previous life, so it is not surprising that he can do this.
Looking at the Lifestealer whose body was almost completely transparent and its wailing was getting weaker and weaker, Wang Sheng knew that it only needed a little bit of holy light power to destroy it now, and he took a deep breath and slowly walked over to control his increasingly weak body.
Just as he was about to deliver the final blow, Lifestealer burst through the window next to him.
"Count yourself as a fast runner! But what's the use of you running fast? Are you blessed with the power of light in your belly? Looking at the white light flickering in the lifestealer's belly outside the window, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Sure enough, as soon as the Lifestealer burst out of the window, his figure quickly faded, disappearing completely in a matter of seconds, and only a little white light slowly fell to the ground outside.
Seeing that the Lifestealer had completely disappeared, Wang Sheng sat on the ground with his ass, it turned out that after the two swords before, he was already at the end of the crossbow, and the power of the holy light in his body had been exhausted, and the actions behind him were just holding on there, if the Lifestealer had fought back just now, he really had no power to fight back.
"Now I can finally sleep peacefully." That was the last thought before he fell asleep.
It's a pity that due to the lack of light, Wang Sheng didn't notice the white light in the soul eater's abdomen from beginning to end, and there was a "black line" wrapped around it, otherwise he would have taken that part of his soul back even if he was tired, and he wouldn't let it dissipate with the wind.
――――――
Wang Sheng slept in the dark and did not wake up until the morning of the third day. After examining his body, he found that his body was fine, except for some dull pain in his head.
He knew that the cause of the headache was the sequelae of the torn soul, and he would not be able to fully recover for a while.
The soul is present in almost all life, but it is definitely one of the most mysterious beings in all universes. Even the research of countless scholars in Azeroth for tens of thousands of years has only scratched the surface of the soul.
It wasn't until Kel'thugad defected to Dalaran that they suddenly realized that those who studied dark energy were often more proficient in the manipulation of soul energy, so they came to the conclusion that the soul was the most primitive and pure dark energy.
This makes sense why the soul of the vast majority of people disappears very quickly after death, which is when the soul returns to pure dark energy and returns to the dark universe.
It also explains why those soul creatures formed by accident can be exempted from almost all energy damage to varying degrees, but not only can they not be immune to the damage of the power of the Holy Light, but the damage from the power of the Holy Light will be deepened.
Of course, this is only speculation, and no conclusive evidence has been found, and many people are skeptical, after all, there are many phenomena that cannot be explained in this way. And because of the prohibition of studying dark magic, no news of any progress in this area was not received until Wang Sheng was reborn.
However, although the knowledge of the soul is lacking after all, Wang Sheng also knows that the soul is damaged, as long as there is pure soul energy, it can be cured, and this time the soul is only torn to an extremely small part, and it can be slowly repaired in the process of absorbing Yuan Jiao for career upgrading, so he is not worried that the soul will not be able to complete and limit his future development potential.
The reason why Yuan Jiao can repair the soul is because the core energy of Yuan Jiao is pure soul energy, which is also the fundamental reason why the Yuan energy in Yuan Jiao can directly have an effect on the brain. Some people even speculate that Yuan Energy actually acts directly on the human soul, but there is no evidence for it.
"Sure enough, whether it's Earth or Azeroth, dealing with this kind of soul creature is very dangerous, if it weren't for the fact that he just became a paladin that day, and it is still very weak, I guess I would have lost my soul by now!" Wang Sheng, who had completely recovered his spirits, thought with palpitations.
