Chapter 1767: Chapter 1787: What If I Want to Learn the Divine Soul Separation Technique?_1

"Special Envoy Lin, our Soul Separation Sect has always preferred to lie low. How did Your Excellency find this place?"

Lin Chen gave a faint smile: "The Immortal Palace naturally has its own methods."

Ouyang Ye, seeing that Lin Chen didn’t plan on explaining, tentatively asked, "Did you follow our sect’s disciples who had just returned from shopping?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "Elder Ouyang, how I came here isn’t important and does not need to be questioned."

Ouyang Ye, having no other choice, could only ask, "Then, Special Envoy Lin, what brings you here this time?"

Lin Chen faintly smiled, "Elder Ouyang, there’s no need to worry. I only came this time to conduct a transaction with the Soul Separation Sect."

Ouyang Ye further questioned, "Which kind of transaction?"

Lin Chen glanced around and chuckled, "In the territory of the Soul Separation Sect, can’t I even get a cup of tea?"

Ouyang Ye hesitated for a moment, at last, he turned around and gestured, "Special Envoy Lin, please!"

Ouyang Ye took the lead and flew towards the depths of the canyon. When he passed a particularly inconspicuous cliff, he took out a token and cast a golden light from the token into the cliff.

Suddenly, the cliff collapsed like fog, revealing a broad passage.

This cliff was not solid, but an illusion array. It was hidden among massive cliffs, offering no hint of its presence. Even if you were standing right in front of it, it would be hard to notice its false nature without touching it.

Following the path, going down, traversing several kilometers, the sight before their eyes suddenly brightened up.

Israel is a huge underground city, with abundant sunlight, rows of stone houses spanning across a large area. At a single glance, it was no different from a surface city.

"What a magnificent underground city!"

Lin Chen voiced his admiration: "Looking at this scale, the number of Soul Separation Sect disciples is not small."

Ouyang Ye replied, "It’s not too many. We just prefer to have more space to live in. That’s why there seem to more houses."

Lin Chen looked up at the multiple light sources in the sky, which resembled the sun, and curiously asked, "Since everything here is similar to that on the surface, then why does the Soul Separation Sect choose to live underground?"

Ouyang Ye replied calmly, "Our Soul Separation Sect dislikes disputes. We hide underground so as to have some peace. We’ve always tried to keep our sect’s location hidden, so we ask that Special Envoy Lin keeps this a secret."

Lin Chen responded with a smile, "I’m not one to spill the beans, Elder Ouyang rest assured."

Ouyang Ye led Lin Chen through the city, towards the biggest palace in the center.

Lin Chen looked around and, at the same time, compared the surroundings with what the man who escaped here said.

Soon, Lin Chen was nearly certain about the layout of the entire underground city.

The Great Hall of the Soul Separation Sect was situated in the due east. The Sect Master and several high-ranking officials of the Soul Separation Sect resided here, and dealt with the administrative affairs of the sect.

On the right side of the Great Hall was the testing center of the Soul Separation Sect. A large number of Soul Separation Sect powerhouses researched souls and produced soul creatures there. On the left was the residential area of the elite members of the sect.

Behind the residential area was the living quarters for the slaves. They were trapped underground all day, driving a large array ensuring the normal operation of the Soul Separation Sect.

Lin Chen was led into the Great Hall by Ouyang Ye, where few men and women were already waiting.

The leading middle-aged man politely greeted him, "Sect Master Gao Chen of Soul Separation Sect welcomes Special Envoy Lin."

After the simple greetings, Gao Chen asked, "Special Envoy Lin mentioned a transaction earlier. May I know what kind of transaction it is?"

Lin Chen replied: "I have long heard that Soul Separation Sect is skilled in soul arts, especially the Divine Soul Separation Technique which is extraordinarily marvelous. The father of a friend of the Palace lord has been occupied by another person’s soul and his spirit is nearly completely devoured..."

Lin Chen further explained the situation of his father in detail, and eventually asked, "In such a situation, can the Divine Soul Separation Technique be used to completely separate the two and become two independent entities?"

Gao Chen nodded, "There’s no doubt about the separation, the soul that is dominant after the separation is certainly intact. As for the invaded and devoured soul, only the soul imprint remains. While it can be revived, the extent to which it can recover depends on the specific situation. Just from hearing you, I dare not promise any guarantees."

Lin Chen was not surprised and asked, "If I request your assistance in separating these two souls, what kind of reward should we give?"

Gao Chen confirmed, "Special Envoy Lin, you’re here just for this matter?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Yes."

Gao replied, "As long as you bring the person here and they are willing to cooperate, we can help for free, but I have to stress that we can only help, we can’t guarantee the outcome. After all, even though we have some understanding of the mysteries of soul, we dare not say that we fully understand."

Lin Chen nodded in understanding, this was much like a doctor that agrees to operate but can’t ensure a successful recovery.

Lin Chen thought for a moment: "What if I want to learn the Divine Soul Separation Technique?"

Gao Chen frowned, slowly shaking his head: "The Divine Soul Separation Technique is a secret that our sect does not pass on. Special Envoy Lin, I’m unable to grant this request."

Gao Chen’s rejection was not beyond Lin Chen’s expectation. He calmly asked, "Is there no room for negotiation at all, or is there, just at an extremely high price?"
