After Tian Long stored the white, ball-like energy at his inner world, he flashed a smile at Lin JiaHao and thought.
'You think I'm done?'
When he finished reading the description of the {Essence Devouring Art} earlier, he had already formed a plan on how to deal with people like Lin JiaHao that he knew he'll encounter in the future.
He laughed inside his heart. 'System, can you split a part of the "essence" without affecting its core and quality?'
Although he had drained all of Lin JiaHao's cultivation, he still wanted to have some insurance in case the guy goes crazy again, therefore, he came up with a plan.
He planned to leave a part of the 'essence' inside Lin JiaHao's body.
By doing this, he could drain the guy's cultivation whenever he wanted to. But of course, he'll only do so if the guy was to try and seek death once more.
Answering his question, the system replied. [ Ding! The system can indeed do so if that is your wish. Proceed? ]
Tian Long smiled with delight that doing such a thing was possible. He immediately told the system to do it.
In an instant, the 100cm white ball of energy that was inside his heavenly world suddenly shone with a bright light.
Tian Long could 'see' a small strand of the essence was suddenly severed off until it eventually became independent by itself as it hovered in the air.
His spiritual body then appeared beside the white strand of the essence and reach his hand towards it. And as if answering to his call, the essence strand floated towards his palm and hovered above it.
Tian Long smiled and left his heavenly world, alongside the strand of the essence.
Pointing his finger towards the twitching Lin JiaHao's forehead, the essence strand immediately rushed and swiftly invaded Lin JiaHao's body.
When the spectators saw Tian Long point his finger at Lin JiaHao's forehead, they thought that he was going to kill him, however, he didn't do so as he wondered what he tried to do.

No one noticed the 'essence' strand that Tian Long had summoned to invade Lin JiaHao's body! What a miraculous and scary technique the {Essence Devouring Art} is.
Tian Long smiled and looked away from the trembling man and turned his attention towards Lin Hui Yin and said casually.
"He's still alive... I think. I didn't cripple him but instead took away all of his cultivation. This means that if he wants to advance forward in the cultivation path, he must restart his cultivation from the beginning."
When Lin Hui Yin heard his words, her eyes went wide as she became speechless. 'Taking away someone else's cultivation forcefully... He actually knows how to use such a technique?!'
Although she was stunned, she immediately recovered herself and thanked Tian Long as she bowed her head. "Thank you for sparing Lin JiaHao. Although I don't like him as well, he's after all, still my family, and it wouldn't do good for either you or us if he died in the Lin Family's territory.
Tian Long calmly replied. "I only granted your wish since it was your first request from me. I would've killed him nonetheless even if he was the son of an immortal since he dared try to kill me."
Lin Hui Yin sighed and didn't reply. Although she didn't know him that much due to the short amount of time that they had spent together, she had the feeling that this sect master of hers was definitely telling the truth and would follow through his words.
Tian Long laughed at her reaction and asked. "Are you not afraid?"
Lin Hui Yin frowned. "Afraid? Of what?"
"The technique that I used. Most people would say that such a technique definitely belongs to the evil path. Are you not afraid that I might be an evil person?" smilingly, he asked.
Lin Hui Yin replied with a beautiful smile. "From the short amount of time that I spent alongside you, I can tell that although you're not a saint, you're definitely not a bad person. And even if most people believe that the technique that you just used was of the devil or evil path, I don't believe so."
Tian Long raised his brow after hearing this. "Oh? Why is that?"
"I believe that things in this world aren't as what they seem to be. For example, there are people that might show to others that they are a righteous and benevolent person but deep inside, they're actually more of a scum than most of the devil path cultivators. Another example is a technique like the one you just used. If not used by anyone, how could it be considered as an evil technique when it hasn't hurt or killed anyone by itself. And how can it be an evil technique if it's in the hands of a kind and righteous person that wouldn't use it on innocent people." Lin Hui Yin calmly and firmly.
She continued. "Therefore, I believe that techniques such as the ones you used isn't an evil technique by itself, but would instead, depend on what kind of person was using it."
Tian Long nodded his head as he heard her words. 'A woman with an insanely high innate talent and potential, with a unique disposition and temperament, along with her profound view on life. Even without my help, it's already set in stone that she's bound to become a major character of this world.'
He praised himself and his decision to invite Lin Hui Yin to become a part of the Eternal Glory Sect.
No one could hear what they were talking about since Tian Long had used his divine sense and heavenly energy to put up a soundproof barrier around them.
As they chatted, everyone on the floor also started their discussion. They took out their voice transmission crystals to spread what had taken place in the Lin Family Library.
They talked about how Lin JiaHao had arrogantly appeared and oppressively attacked with an intent to kill a random stranger over a small matter.
They also discussed how that random stranger was actually a monstrous genius that incapacitated Lin JiaHao effortlessly, and twice at that!
They didn't even need to exaggerate the battle, if it could even be considered as one, since there were no rooms to exaggerate because of how Tian Long had taken action.
On the other hand, Tian Long totally ignored the clamoring crowd since he had just heard a delightful news.
[ Ding! Information gathering within the Lin Family Library is now complete! The host could either view these pieces of information or directly transfer them to the user. ]
Tian Long was ecstatic that the system had finally finished gathering all the knowledge and information that the Lin Family Library contained.
He didn't hesitate at all to choose to transfer all the gathered knowledge into him.
[ Ding! Decision confirmed! Ding! Information Transfer has been paused since the system has concluded that the host is currently in a bad place for the knowledge transfer to take place. The system recommends the host to find a secluded place first before the process starts. ]
Although Tian Long was delighted that the system has finished its information gathering, he couldn't help but feel worried when he heard the system's words.
He shook his head and thought to himself. 'I'm probably just being paranoid...'
After a few seconds, Tian Long and Lin Hui Yin left the library. They didn't even glance at the unconscious Lin JiaHao when they headed for the exit.
