A Soul Container

Xiao Yin's acquisition of the Spine wasn't something Lin Mu had expected when he first came here, but it was certainly a pleasant surprise now.

While its actions were quite concerning at first, Lin Mu wondered if there was more to it.

"What else is it saying? Why did it attack us?" Lin Mu decided to ask.

Xiao Yin communicated with the Punishing Demon Spine Lash and relayed it to Lin Mu.

"It says that it was the command that was last given to it. It was to guard the Crystal and wait for its master to come." Xiao Yin spoke. 

"Is that why it stopped after seeing you?" Lin Mu wondered.

"Yes, it finds me compatible with it and that I can nurture it so that it can recover its full potential." Xiao Yin replied. "I also feel like I can control the power within it." She added.

"Hmm… It does use Baleful Energy, which are of the Yin Attribute." Lin Mu muttered.
