Even the battle between Chi Ghost and the Spirit Controller seemed to be affected, the originally tentative attacks suddenly became a matter of life and death. The Spirit Controller's Heavenly Venerate Level souls had reached a count of five. Five against one, and although those five were only soul bodies, incapable of launching the most direct physical attacks, they were still five Heavenly Venerates. The Spirit Controller's methods were truly impressive. Now it seemed that the reason why the Spirit Controller's cultivation hadn't advanced an inch in a million years was probably because he had devoted all his time and energy to refining these Heavenly Venerate Level souls.
