"Innate supernatural powers" that involve soul-based attacks are both powerful and bizarre. Once unleashed, unless the target possesses a higher cultivation level and stronger Mental Power, death is almost certain.
Most importantly, soul attacks cannot be blocked by Origin Force or "profound mysteries," as they are fundamentally different types of energy. Soul attacks are ethereal, while Origin Force and profound mysteries are tangible, physical powers. Two Martial Emperors at Level 2 might be evenly matched at the start, but when the young man in black unleashed his "innate supernatural power," he killed his opponent in the blink of an eye.
"What a terrifying innate supernatural power!"
"That’s a soul-based attack. It’s impossible to guard against! Unless your Mental Power is on a higher level than his, you’re destined to die once you face him."
"Even if your Mental Power is higher, as long as the gap isn't significant, he can still use his innate supernatural power to severely damage your soul. While your consciousness is clouded, he can easily defeat you."
