“This power?”
Xu Shuya suddenly went berserk, and everyone in the banquet hall was shocked. Many were sent flying by her aura, crashing heavily against the walls and turning into bloody pulp!
“Ye Ling, that girl seems to have lost control. Should we intervene?”
Ye Qingyan could no longer hide her cultivation. She quickly gathered the other girls from the altar and retreated rapidly, putting distance between herself and Xu Shuya.
“Don’t interfere. That girl has accumulated too much Yin energy. This is a good opportunity to release it all. You retreat to the back and don’t get hurt by her.”
Ye Ling remained hidden in the shadows and said to Ye Qingyan.
“Alright! You watch this side, and I’ll get these girls out first.”
“Okay!”
Upon hearing Ye Ling’s words, Ye Qingyan no longer paid attention to Xu Shuya and swiftly led the more than ten girls away from the Heavenly Net King’s mansion.
“How could she go berserk?”
Seeing Xu Shuya suddenly lose control, the Heavenly Net Ghost King’s face turned extremely grim. He didn’t even bother with Ye Qingyan who was escaping with the sacrifices!
The sacrifices could be captured anytime, but Xu Shuya, this Yin Embryo that transcended the six realms, was a rare and elusive find!
The Heavenly Net Ghost King had almost exhausted his vital essence to barely bring about Xu Shuya’s birth!
If Xu Shuya went berserk now and squandered the power accumulated over a hundred years, it would take the Heavenly Net Ghost King at least another two hundred years to create another Yin Embryo!
It couldn’t wait that long!
“Kill!!!”
Xu Shuya screamed and charged towards the Heavenly Net Ghost King. The dark energy filling the air condensed into a giant, monstrous face, incredibly ferocious.
“Hundred Ghosts Collapse!”
Seeing Xu Shuya charging, the Heavenly Net Ghost King dared not be careless. He struck out with a palm towards Xu Shuya.
*Bang!*
The blood-colored giant palm collided with the monstrous ghostly face. The violent force swept in all directions, shattering most of the hall’s stone pillars. The surviving evil spirits and cultivators frantically fled outwards.
“Trying to escape?”
Ye Ling, standing in the shadows, watched the fleeing evil spirits and cultivators, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.
Traces of demonic energy emanated from his body, drifting towards the outside of the hall and coalescing into a shadow.
Every evil spirit and cultivator who stepped out of the hall was beheaded by Ye Ling’s shadow.
“Miss…”
Tian Yi clutched his chest, propped himself up with his sword, and struggled to stand.
His eyes were filled with worry.
Although Xu Shuya possessed immense power after going berserk, her attacks lacked any semblance of order, relying solely on brute force.
After engaging the Heavenly Net Ghost King, she quickly fell into a disadvantage.
If the fight continued like this, Xu Shuya was bound to lose!
“You want power?”
At this moment, Ye Ling’s voice sounded behind Tian Yi, startling him.
“It’s you?”
Tian Yi turned abruptly and saw Ye Ling slowly emerging from the shadows, a faint smile on his lips. “I can lend you power.”
Tian Yi’s eyes narrowed slightly. “You’re this kind?”
“Of course, it’s not a free loan. There are conditions.”
Ye Ling chuckled. “As long as you become my servant and recognize me as your master.”
“Recognize you as my master?”
Tian Yi exclaimed.
“You can also refuse. I don’t mind,” Ye Ling glanced at Xu Shuya, who was already being suppressed by the Heavenly Net Ghost King. “But you should also be able to see that even when berserk, Xu Shuya is no match for the Heavenly Net Ghost King.”
“In the end, the Heavenly Net Ghost King will still suppress Xu Shuya and capture her.”
“As a traitor, your end can only be death.”
“Without power, you can change nothing.”
Tian Yi: “…”
Hearing Ye Ling’s words, Tian Yi fell silent.
He could naturally see the direction the battle was heading. The only one who could change this situation now was Ye Ling, and the price for Ye Ling to save Xu Shuya was to sell his soul…
Tian Yi looked at Ye Ling and said in a deep voice, “You are a demon.”
Ye Ling narrowed his eyes and smiled. “Thank you for the compliment. So, what is your answer?”
Tian Yi glanced at Xu Shuya again, then took a deep breath, enduring the intense pain in his body, and knelt on one knee before Ye Ling, “Tian Yi, I am willing to serve you as my master.”
“Please grant me power.”
“A wise choice.”
Seeing Tian Yi agree, Ye Ling’s smile grew even brighter.
Ye Ling spread out his palm, and a ball of demonic energy floated in his palm, condensing into a lotus flower, which flew towards Tian Yi’s forehead and entered his head.
Soon, a black lotus imprint materialized on Tian Yi’s forehead, and then Tian Yi felt an incredibly powerful force surge into his body, roughly expanding his meridians!
*Crackling!*
Bone washing and marrow cleansing!
“Urgh…”
Tian Yi gritted his teeth, his body covered in bulging veins. The excruciating pain tore at his soul!
*Boom!*
Soon, a powerful aura erupted from Tian Yi’s body.
At this moment, Tian Yi’s black hair turned snow-white, his dark eyes turned blood-red, and a red aura coiled around his entire body.
“What is happening?”
The Heavenly Net Ghost King suddenly felt a fatal threat and looked at Tian Yi, whose demeanor had drastically changed, with utter shock!
Tian Yi, who was just at the seventh-grade cultivation a moment ago… was now at the peak of the eighth-grade!
Tian Yi slowly stood up, his long sword now covered in red flames, the floor directly melting into lava from the scorching heat!
Tian Yi had never felt such immense power.
“Thank you, Master.”
Tian Yi bowed deeply to Ye Ling, then turned to face the Heavenly Net Ghost King, releasing his long sword.
The demonic sword floated beside Tian Yi, its blade trembling and emitting dragon roars.
“This, this is impossible…”
The Heavenly Net Ghost King’s face was filled with horror. He didn’t dare to grab the now unconscious Xu Shuya and quickly retreated, putting distance between himself and Tian Yi.
Tian Yi brought his fingers together, and the demonic sword floated up, pointing at the Heavenly Net Ghost King.
“Sword Painting · Ten Steps Dan Qing.”
Tian Yi whispered, and the demonic sword instantly vanished from its spot.
The Heavenly Net Ghost King’s pupils contracted sharply. Before he could react, the demonic sword was already in front of him and slashed down with a roar!
*Ching!*
The Heavenly Net Ghost King’s arm was directly severed!
“Damn it! Damn it!”
The Heavenly Net Ghost King was greatly alarmed and completely terrified by Tian Yi. He suddenly retreated to his main seat and activated a mechanism nearby!
Tian Yi’s current strength and speed had increased more than tenfold. The Heavenly Net Ghost King was no match for him anymore!
“Sword Painting · Meteor White Feather!”
With another cold shout, the demonic sword that had severed the Heavenly Net Ghost King’s arm suddenly split into thousands, pouring down like a torrential rain!
“Blood Soul Gourd!”
The Heavenly Net Ghost King dared not resist. He opened his mouth and spat out a gourd-shaped artifact, forming a barrier in front of him to block Tian Yi’s attack.
Meanwhile, the Heavenly Net Ghost King took this opportunity to jump into the mechanism behind the hall and escape.
The moment the Heavenly Net Ghost King jumped in, the artifact he had deployed was pierced through countless holes by the demonic sword and exploded violently!
“He escaped.”
Ye Ling saw the Heavenly Net Ghost King’s aura disappear from the hall and said nonchalantly to Tian Yi, “You held back earlier.”
“Don’t let it happen again.”
“Yes…”
Tian Yi did not refute Ye Ling. He leaped forward, picked up the unconscious Xu Shuya, and brought her before Ye Ling.
“Please, Master, save Miss.”
At this moment, Xu Shuya’s body had been completely depleted of power, and her spiritual body had become transparent, on the verge of dissipating at any moment.
Ye Ling looked deeply at Tian Yi before taking out Xu Shuya’s body.
“You will help her recover her soul. Don’t let her die.”
Seeing Ye Ling take out Xu Shuya’s body, Tian Yi’s entire body trembled. He looked at Ye Ling in shock. “This is Miss’s body?”
Then, Tian Yi excitedly knelt before Ye Ling, his gratitude overflowing. “Your great kindness is immeasurable. Tian Yi is deeply grateful!”
With a physical body, although Xu Shuya remained an evil spirit in the end, she now had the possibility of walking the earth by relying on her body!
This was of great significance to Xu Shuya!
