Chapter 448: You Were Captured Too? A Pleasure to Meet You.
Although the improvement wasn’t great, at Ye Tianling’s Realm, even the slightest progress was an incredibly heaven-defying advancement.
’Every time I devour the Soul Origin of a Soul Master from the Soul Race, my own Soul experiences a significant boost! It seems I should kill a few more Soul Masters.’
Ye Tianling murmured to himself, and his figure flew toward the central area.
That place was the central region of this giant lotus flower’s petals. Within that region was the Hell Red Lotus Fire.
This Hell Red Lotus Fire was about to reach a state of consummate perfection. Once it did, it would be in the most suitable condition for Refinement.
Once he completed the Refinement...
Ye Tianling knew that his Samadhi True Fire and Karmic Fire would completely fuse and transform, forming an entirely new Flame.
At that time, his Battle Power would likely be enough to break past the limit of nine.
Breaking the Nine Forbidden would likely no longer be difficult.
Moreover, once the True Fire and Karmic Fire transformed into a Celestial Fire, he would gain complete, effortless Control over the Blood Secret Realm. At that point, he would possess an immense trump card of slaughter!
"AH—"
After dozens of his Soul Qi wisps were hunted down and forcefully extinguished, Xi Junchang’s eyes turned red with fury. He finally gathered all his Soul Qi into a single, corporeal form and fled into the distance.
"You still think you can escape? If I let you get away, then I, Ye Tianling, wouldn’t be worthy of the name!"
Ye Tianling snorted coldly and activated his Kunpeng Carefree Travel Body Technique. Moving as if traversing the void, he shot forth through the Realm of Ultimate Void.
"VMMMM—"
Powerful Soul Spirit Qi gathered into a Great Forbidden Talisman Array, instantly blanketing the area ahead and blocking Xi Junchang’s escape!
Seeing his path blocked, Xi Junchang’s eyes turned blood-red. He instantly activated his Battle Soul and, in one move, began to burn his Soul Qi, preparing to fight Ye Tianling to the death.
When a Soul Master decided to fight to the death, they became like a terrifying soul bomb—an extremely vicious force.
But at that moment, a crimson light suddenly shot from between Ye Tianling’s eyebrows. It instantly transformed into a cage and enveloped Xi Junchang with terrifying speed.
"AH—"
Xi Junchang let out a wretched cry as he was bound. Locked onto by Ye Tianling’s powerful will, he was instantly dragged into the Blood Secret Realm.
"AHHHH—"
Within the Blood Secret Realm, terrifying Hidden Dragon Shackles instantly coiled around Xi Junchang’s body.
He immediately began to scream in agony. Just like Die Xin and Li Rushan before him, he was instantly tormented to within an inch of his life.
Within a few breaths, Xi Junchang fell completely silent.
The more he struggled, the more terrifying the torment became.
But if he stopped struggling, the torment would lessen, gradually giving way to tranquility.
Die Xin, Li Rushan, and Mu Yuxi had all experienced this same scene.
At this moment, within the blood-colored cages of the Blood Secret Realm, an obvious calm had settled.
"Well, well, if it isn’t Young Master Xi Junchang, captured and brought in here too. A pleasure to meet you, truly a pleasure!"
Upon seeing Xi Junchang, Li Rushan couldn’t help but sneer.
This blood-colored world was incredibly oppressive. Furthermore, the moment he had any malicious thoughts, a restriction would be activated.
A horrific form of torture—like being flayed alive, having one’s tendons ripped out, and being thrown into a wok of boiling oil—would spontaneously manifest, causing unbearable pain.
But as long as one didn’t resist or harbor hatred, nothing would happen.
So after suffering the consequences a few times, he had learned to behave—at least, he wasn’t dead yet.
Now, seeing Xi Junchang dragged in, Li Rushan felt an inexplicable sense of joy. After all, he and Xi Junchang were mortal enemies.
He immediately began to gloat.
"Li Rushan, you son of a bitch!"
Xi Junchang roared, instantly consumed by rage.
"AH—"
Immediately, he was met with an extremely terrifying punishment.
It was as if an invisible Blood Axe had appeared between Heaven and Earth, striking his Soul with a single blow.
His entire Soul felt as if it had been run clean through, as if ten thousand swords had pierced his body. The pain was simply suffocating.
He screamed wretchedly, his voice so shrill it was chilling to the bone.
Xi Junchang was instantly beaten into submission, all the frantic rage in his heart turning to ice.
He shot Li Rushan a cold glance, forcefully suppressing his Emotions.
"Weren’t you captured and brought in here too? I assume you looked down on that Human Race Cultivator and got slapped in the face for it, didn’t you? Seeing how familiar you are with the rules here, just how many times did you have to suffer to gain all this ’experience’?"
Xi Junchang sneered in retort.
The mocking look on Li Rushan’s face stiffened, and a surge of inexplicable anger rose in his heart.
But after Sensing the chilling sensation of the Blood-Colored Battleaxe locking onto his Soul, he immediately suppressed his anger.
"Heh, it’s still much better than the beating you just took. At the very least, my Three Souls and Seven Spirits are still intact. Not like you—one of your Three Souls has already been severed! Oh, my Talent! Oh, I’m in such pain!"
Li Rushan sneered, his words dripping with indescribable sarcasm.
Die Xin watched on coldly, saying nothing.
She couldn’t be bothered to indulge in emotional fluctuations that would only bring her pain.
As for these two, she was content to let them fight amongst themselves. It was a perfect opportunity for her to observe more and try to understand the secrets of this strange, mystical Space.
Mu Yuxi watched this scene blankly, her heart a tangled mess of complex emotions.
She had made the greatest mistake of her life. Because of a misunderstanding, she had sought revenge against a benefactor, treating him as an enemy. In doing so, she had thoroughly enraged him, leading to her current, tragic predicament.
Thinking back on that series of events, Mu Yuxi felt a bitter taste in her heart. Naturally, such hatred could not be erased.
Yet, the moment this thought arose, her Demon Soul was instantly locked on by the Power of Slaughter. With her current Ability, Mu Yuxi didn’t dare to even brush against it.
She hurriedly suppressed her killing intent. But even so, because the hatred had flared up so quickly, she had still triggered the terrifying killing intent of the Blood-Colored Battleaxe, despite reining her feelings in.
A blood-colored figure seemed to materialize in the void.
As this figure appeared, the faces of Li Rushan, Die Xin, and Xi Junchang all turned deathly pale.
This blood-colored figure stood there, holding a Battle Axe.
Its eyes were completely hollow, its pupils flashing with a sinister, bloody light. It looked just like a copy of Ye Tianling.
However, this blood-colored figure was immense. In the eyes of Xi Junchang and the others, it was at least a hundred times larger than them!
"WHOOSH—"
The blood-colored figure raised its Battle Axe and swung it directly at Mu Yuxi.
Mu Yuxi’s eyes widened, the depths of her pupils flashing with profound despair and terror.
Her heart sank to rock bottom. In that moment, she even had the sensation that she had turned into a tree.
And that Battle Axe was about to chop her down.
"PFFT—"
"AH—"
Mu Yuxi’s Soul felt as if it had been cleaved in two, as if she were on the verge of death.
But then, something miraculous happened.
The life essence Origin Energy that Ye Tianling had previously released now quickly fused with the wisp of the Battle Axe’s destructive will. Her Demon Soul, which had been on the brink of annihilation, suddenly radiated with a brand-new thread of vitality.
