The shadow moved swiftly, arriving in front of Xin Lin in an instant.
Yet, seeing Xin Lin's figure sway slightly, her index and middle fingers, like flashes of lightning, caught the shadow.
Having learned the Vessel-locking Technique from Gu Feng Academy, Xin Lin's technique was very skillful. With that grip, she already seized the shadow's Life Gate, preventing the True Qi inside it from flowing.
The shadow struggled, but couldn't muster the slightest bit of strength.
Though they looked like two frail fingers, they were now like iron bars, firmly holding the shadow.
Only then did Xin Lin take a closer look, and saw the true form of the shadow. It was a Pa Xie, with a slender body, a pair of large claws, and a curved tail. After Xin Lin held its claws, its tail suddenly curled, with a barbed stinger fiercely stabbing towards the back of Xin Lin's hand.
However, Xin Lin grabbed its tail with a reverse grip, and smashed it harshly onto the ground.
