Yun Che grasped the ground with his hands and stood up bit by bit. His pupils shrank, but after standing up, he still looked at the four Uttarakuru petals that were emitting dark purple light.
"I want to get closer to it..." He muttered in a hoarse voice, "Why can't I help myself... use the remaining strength to retreat... and I'm actually afraid..."
"Could it be that... my so-called determination is so... vulnerable?!"
Yun Che's voice was vague and erratic, as if he had become somewhat unconscious under the power of the Netherworld Udumbara Flower. Jasmine immediately said, "This has nothing to do with whether you are determined or not! In this world, no one can bear the pain of soul separation, and no one is not afraid of the pain of soul separation!"
“No, it does matter!” Yun Che stood up completely straight. He stared at the Netherworld Udumbara Flower with his arms trembling. In addition to the fear that could not be dispelled, there was also a cluster of crazy and condensed hostility in his pupils. Then he raised his feet and walked towards the Netherworld Udumbara Flower step by step: “Rebuilding your body for you... This is the first day we met, and the request you made to me is also the only request you have made so far!”
"Jasmine, because I met you, I, who was originally just a useless person, was reborn and regained my dignity... Because of you, I can protect my grandfather and my aunt from being bullied... Because of you, I know my life experience and found my biological parents... The power, status, dignity, and reputation I have now are all because of you. If I hadn't met you, I might have died tragically... Even if I were still alive, I might just be a lonely ghost wandering on the edge of despair..."
"But I still can't even help you realize your only wish."
Jasmine: “You…”
"What's in front of me right now may be my only hope. So, no matter what... no matter what...!!"
"You...don't try again, even if you..."
“Ugh!!”
As soon as Jasmine's roar came out, it was suppressed by Yun Che's roar. With the flames and murderous aura in his whole body, he rushed towards the Netherworld Udumbara Flower for the fourth time... His strongest aura was murderous aura! He was using his most extreme murderous aura to suppress the fear from the pain of soul separation.
After two quick steps, Yun Che rushed to a distance of fifteen feet again. This position was like the edge of a demon's restricted area - he must not step into it even a little bit!
Unspeakable soul-leaving pain came over Yun Che, and his entire body twitched in spasms. But this time, he did not collapse, but gritted his teeth and took the first step towards the demon's restricted area...
“Aaaaaaaaaaah!!”
Yun Che seemed to be screaming in pain from the loss of his soul, but more like he was roaring with all his might. He held on to his soul and will, and continued to move forward one step... two steps... three steps...
Plop!!
Like a miracle, he actually moved forward a full ten feet while half roaring and half screaming, and was now fourteen feet away from the Netherworld Udumbara Flower. He finally fell to his knees, his facial features squeezed into a ball in extreme pain, and his five fingers that were tightly grasping the ground twisted like two dry animal claws...
Pain and fear filled his soul. The desire to die overwhelmed his desire to live, and the desire to escape at all costs swallowed up all his will. His body twisted and rolled and crawled desperately in the direction away from the pain...
The pain began to ease little by little, and the torn soul finally became peaceful. Yun Che regained consciousness, and he lay on the ground, looking in the direction of the Netherworld Udumbara Flower... That purple light was once again twenty feet away.
“Heh… heh… hahahaha… hahahahahahaha…” Yun Che slammed his fist hard on the ground and laughed miserably: “You actually escaped back again… I’m actually… so useless…”
“Yun Che! How long are you going to be so stupid!” Jasmine angrily cursed, “If you are working so hard just to repay me for the reasons you just mentioned, then you don’t have to do it! Everything I have done is for myself! You don’t need to work so hard for a mere Netherworld Udumbara Flower! Don’t say that you can’t succeed today… Even if you really pick it, I won’t be grateful, I will only think you are stupid!!”
"Repay... a favor?"
Yun Che propped himself up with his arms and stood up again. His body was swaying and he spoke weakly, “How can it be… repaying a favor… Jasmine, to me… how can you… just be a benefactor?”
Jasmine: “…”
He turned to where the Netherworld Udumbara Flower was and said in a low voice: “I, Yun Che, have experienced many storms and waves in my life, and countless life and death disasters. Even a demon from the ancient times millions of years ago died under my sword!!”
"How could I... be defeated so miserably by a mere Netherworld Udumbara Flower!!"
Jasmine shouted in shock, "Are you still going to try? Have you been tortured to the point of losing your most basic sanity?"
“No! On the contrary, I am more sober now than ever before!” Yun Che growled, “I am not even afraid of demons or death, so how could I be frightened by a flower and retreat in embarrassment again and again!!”
Roar!!!!
The majestic dragon roar shook the world, and the dark world suddenly opened a pair of pale blue eyes. A majestic pressure also overturned and enveloped the world.
Dragon Soul Realm!!
Jasmine: “……!!”
After releasing the Dragon God Domain, all the fear in Yun Che's heart and pupils completely dissipated. He looked at the Netherworld Udumbara Flower with a calm but resolute smile on his face: "This time, I will not allow myself to be afraid and retreat... because I have no way out!! "
After releasing the Dragon Soul Domain, his soul power would be drastically consumed in a short period of time. If he retreated again, it would take a very long time for his soul power to fully recover... By then, the Netherworld Udumbara Flower would have surely withered.
Therefore, this time he really has no way out!
“No!!” Jasmine shouted at the top of her voice: “Even if you use the Dragon Soul, you can’t get close to the Netherworld Udumbara Flower! Moreover, the Dragon Soul Field will rapidly consume your soul power. When your soul power weakens, your soul will be quickly devoured by the Netherworld Udumbara Flower, and you won’t even have the chance to resist or retreat!!”
“I can…” Yun Che gritted his teeth and said, “Because this is for you… So, I can definitely do it!”
"..." Jasmine's heart was hit hard by something unfamiliar.
Roar!!!
With a dragon roar, Yun Che surged with all his profound energy and pounced on the Netherworld Udumbara Flower once again... and for the last time!
Because there will be no chance next time!!
Under the Dragon Soul Domain, Yun Che’s soul power surged. As he approached, the Netherworld Udumbara Flower’s swaying accelerated, and even the ghostly cries it made became somewhat abnormal.
Yun Che approached from far away, and suddenly approached to a distance of fifteen meters. His whole body was tense, and the tearing force that attacked his soul was fiercely resisted by the Dragon God's soul power. The pain and will collapse brought to Yun Che were not even half of the previous ones.
His strength and consciousness quickly lost control and dissipated under the power of the Netherworld Udumbara Flower. Yun Che’s speed slowed down, his steps were already crooked and shaky, he gritted his teeth and stepped forward desperately... Under the suppression of the Netherworld power by the Dragon Soul Domain, he forcibly approached within a distance of ten feet! !
The pain that exceeded Yun Che's endurance came madly, and Yun Che fell to his knees fiercely, trembling in every pore of his body in pain. But in his pupils, there was still a little bit of terrifying clarity...
Under such circumstances, being able to maintain such a small amount of clarity can only be described as "terrible".
"Even if... my soul is completely torn apart... I will not take a single step back!"
“Uhhhhhhhhhhh!!”
He swung his trembling, powerless arms and crawled in the direction of the dark purple light. The pain of his soul being torn apart made him no longer feel the existence of his arms and his entire body. He was just squeezing out the last bit of faith and will to push his body forward... Every time he moved forward, the pain of his soul being torn apart and the horror of being stripped away would double.
But he... must not retreat!
Hong'er was sleeping in the Sky Poison Pearl. The fierce battle with the Moon Slaughter Devil Lord seemed to have made her very tired. During the two days when Yun Che was concentrating on healing his wounds, she had been sleeping soundly. Jasmine stood beside Hong'er's bed, staring blankly at Yun Che struggling and crawling in the netherworld purple light, which was closing in from a distance of ten feet to only nine feet. The huge pain made his entire face twisted like a devil.
However, the shadow of the Dragon God behind him was gradually weakening...
At this moment, the shadow of the Dragon God suddenly flashed, and the speed of weakening suddenly accelerated, as if it was on the verge of collapse.
Jasmine’s eyebrows jumped sharply, and she cried out in a lost voice, “Yun Che, don’t insist any longer, retreat immediately! Your Dragon Soul Domain has almost reached its limit… before it completely collapses, you can still escape! Otherwise, you will really die here forever!!”
“…” Yun Che did not answer, nor did he retreat. His arms trembled forward, and his five fingers were all bloody. His clenched teeth had long been bleeding, and blood was constantly flowing from the corners of his mouth, but he was unaware of it all. His body was in a purgatory that ordinary people could not imagine, and it moved deeper and deeper into the purgatory little by little.
“… Yun Che! You listen to me!” Jasmine’s soul was also trembling, and the trembling was almost as violent as Yun Che’s: “If I can’t regain my body, I can only rely on your lifeblood to exist! If you live, I live, if you die, I die! I have now gotten rid of the devil poison and can use my power at will! If I don’t die, I must ensure that you don’t die. With my power, even if all the people in the Profound Sky Continent are added together, they can’t kill you! You can also rely on my power to do anything that you can’t do!!”
"If I can never rebuild my body, I will have to rely on you forever, and I must always protect you!"
"But if I am reborn, you will lose a very powerful amulet for nothing! Moreover, I am cruel and have killed many people. I might even kill you just because you know too much about me! Yes... Once I reshape my body, I will kill you immediately! Because not only do you know too much about me, but you are also the kind of person I hate the most!"
"You are paying a huge price for doing the stupidest thing in the world! You still have time to stop now... Go back now!!"
Jasmine screamed and roared, and the joints of her two little hands had already turned as white as snow.
Snap!
Yun Che grabbed a piece of black stone protruding from the ground with his palm and pulled his body forward a little bit. The corners of his mouth twitched as he uttered a hoarse and weak voice: “You… won’t…”
