After the sound dissipated, the powerful aura emanating from Ye Xiruo also vanished instantly. The purple lightning that had been circling above Ye Xiruo's head continued to circle a few more times, but finding no target, it reluctantly disappeared.
Two clusters of pure spiritual energy appeared before Ye Xiruo. These should be related to the two people who had just died.
Ye Xiruo looked down at her pale fingers. Yes, these were her own hands. She had shattered an immortal with a single slap, killed two immortals in two moves, and forced another immortal to self-destruct. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that it was all real. The person who had just torn the immortal apart was her, yet not her.
That spiritual force was about to invade her sea of consciousness, and she had no power to resist. Was she really going to die here? Brother Xiu Qi, I'm sorry.
However, an overwhelming power erupted from her sea of consciousness, forcing her into a corner and causing her to lose control of her body. She then watched helplessly as the powerful being who had been hiding within her unleashed his full domineering aura, effortlessly (and horribly) annihilating four immortals.
The meridians in her body were stretched to the point of bursting by the sudden surge of spiritual power. She watched as she tore apart an immortal with her bare hands, like a bystander, displaying unparalleled domineering power.
This powerful being's attack methods were almost unprecedented and unheard of. Those white silks were spiritual energy, fully materialized spiritual energy. For spiritual energy alone to be so formidable—and this was merely a phantom or a lingering remnant—it was truly unimaginable how powerful this being's true form was. What was her relationship with such a person? Ye Xiruo was also very curious.
When the heavenly tribulation descended and the divine sense subsided, everything returned to normal. Ye Xiruo's consciousness returned to her body. Recalling the words spoken before the powerful divine sense faded, Ye Xiruo could only think, "Just as I thought." Her adoptive mother was indeed still alive, and a powerful figure beyond compare. The talk of her dying of illness was a complete lie. Her deadbeat father must have gone off to chase after his wife, leaving her all alone and miserable. Ugh.
"Little Ye, time is running out. This is a gift from your mother."
What she wanted most were the storage rings of immortals. If one could cultivate to become an immortal, there must be many good things in the space ring, such as spirit stones, magic weapons, cultivation techniques, treasure maps, etc. Now they are all gone. How could she not be heartbroken?
These two white lights contained the purest spiritual power. Once she absorbed them all, her spiritual sea of consciousness should be completely filled.
"System, wake up, come out."
"Waaaaah, you scared me to death."
Ye Xiru rolled her eyes. When she was about to die, the system didn't even show any loyalty to its master. Now it's putting on an act. Humph.
What are these two lumps?
"Ahhhh, it's actually the source of spiritual power and the source of life! Where did you get such a wonderful thing? Did it fall from the sky?" I don't believe it, I don't believe it, I'd rather die than believe it.
The system was on the verge of going berserk, roaring madly within Ye Xiruo's sea of consciousness.
"Of course not, someone gave it to me. I received it from two immortals."
"That would be perfect. Quickly put it away. With this, you'll definitely be able to ascend to immortality."
"Even without this, I can still ascend to become an immortal. Thank you."
"It's different. This thing is pure spiritual energy. After absorbing it, it can strengthen your spiritual sea, enhance your own spiritual energy source, and purify your spiritual energy."
How do I use it?
"Just absorb it directly."
Indeed, it was a good thing. Ye Xiruo temporarily forgot her disappointment and heartache at not having a space ring, and directly stuffed the two spheres of spiritual energy into the storage compartment. After everything was settled, she would go into seclusion to absorb the spiritual energy.
I wonder how things are going with Master. With such a commotion here, it's impossible that no one noticed over there.
Ling Jian single-handedly opened the lock of time and space, imprisoning so many experts; it was already quite a feat, but it was the safest and most reliable method. Once Ling Yin and the others captured that person and found Xiu Qiyu's whereabouts, they would leave immediately.
The plan was perfect, with almost no loopholes. Under normal circumstances, it would indeed go incredibly smoothly. If four immortals couldn't catch even an ant, it would truly be a huge joke.
"Oh no!" Ling Jian exclaimed in alarm. How could the Pill King Palace possess such a powerful aura? This divine sense belonged to a Celestial King! A Celestial King? How could this be? This was merely a lower-level plane.
Hopefully, this Celestial King's divine sense is merely a facade, or that this Celestial King has nothing to do with their current objective.
"Spiritual Sound—"
In a short time, he could no longer sense Lingyin's presence, which meant that the Immortal King had made a move and killed Lingyin with swift and decisive action.
How could this be! This is a trap. How could that bastard Xiu Qiyu possibly be related to the high and mighty Immortal King?
Wait, the true form of the Immortal King could not possibly descend, so this is just a divine thought. But even a divine thought is not something an ordinary immortal can resist.
Soon, Lingxi's aura also disappeared.
Ling Jian felt a sense of retreat. He had never imagined that he would be facing a Celestial King when he accepted this mission. Now that things had gone unexpectedly, he should go back and report to the Ice Emperor before making any further plans.
The moment the lock of time and space closed, the young man in plain clothes, the Taiyan God Emperor, and Elder Jiantian all charged toward the spirit arrow with overwhelming force.
Jing Li hurriedly headed towards Ye Xiruo's direction.
People on the ground scattered in all directions as if fleeing for their lives. All the magical artifacts on their bodies that could accelerate or defend emitted multicolored light. However, many people were still unable to dodge in time and were torn to pieces by the destructive energy.
"I'm leaving, and you few probably can't stop me." Ling Jian had been beaten by several people and had already suffered internal injuries, but he still held on, refusing to relax or compromise in the slightest.
"Try and see if we can stop you." The young man in plain clothes suddenly surged with power. A giant azure dragon rose from behind him, soaring through the heavens, exuding a chilling killing intent.
The clouds in the sky grew thicker, and the purple lightning was faintly mixed with black, destructive light.
"Ancestor, you mustn't!" The appearance of the Azure Dragon has already drawn a warning from the Heavenly Dao. If the fighting continues, the Heavenly Dao will show absolutely no mercy.
"The time it takes to drink a cup of tea is enough to wipe out this ant." The young man in plain clothes had a strong killing intent in his eyes.
Taiyan Divine Emperor: "I will follow the Ancestor's arrangements."
The Spirit Arrow, the prey it had been targeted, was now in a dilemma.
"kill!"
The enormous azure dragon swooped down from mid-air, spewing out explosive dragon breath, and the sword in the young man's hand also began to move.
