Ye Ling waited outside Luofeng City for a moment, then sensed two world-ending divine presences erupt from within.
"This aura… is it a Pillar of Shadow?"
Ye Ling had fought Pillars of Shadow before; fragments of their consciousness were still in his possession. He understood them intimately!
"Tian Xing didn't come, but two Pillars of Shadow did? Well, this outcome isn't bad. At least the dark creatures are taking me seriously. If I keep pushing forward like this, Tian Xing will eventually show up."
"I just wonder if continuing this slaughter will alert the Lord of the Upper Realm…"
Ye Ling muttered to himself, unconcerned about what the two Pillars of Shadow emerging from Luofeng City might do to him.
Now, Ye Ling could confidently say that throughout the entire Chaos Battlefield, aside from Good and Evil, and the Lord of the Upper Realm, no one was his match!
The two Pillars of Shadow also had no idea what kind of enemy they were facing. They stood in the void, one on each side, and asked Ye Ling with a smile, "Are you Wang Liren?"
Ye Ling sized up the two Pillars of Shadow and replied with a smile, "Indeed, it is I. I'd like to ask, is Tian Xing in this city?"
One of the Pillars of Shadow chuckled, "Marshal Tian Xing is overseeing the battle within the city. What, did you hear that Tian Xing is a great beauty and want to meet her?"
"So Tian Xing is in the city…" Hearing the Pillar of Shadow's words, Ye Ling's eyes lit up. He then smiled and said, "I understand. Thank you both for the information. After I'm done with Tian Xing, I'll deal with you two."
With that, Ye Ling took a step forward, passing between the two Pillars of Shadow, and flew towards Luofeng City.
Seeing Ye Ling easily pass between them, the pupils of both Pillars of Shadow constricted, and their hearts churned with immense shock!
Such speed!
Their divine senses had been locked onto Ye Ling. No matter what Ye Ling did, they would sense it immediately!
But after Ye Ling took that step, they could no longer see his movements, nor could they lock onto his aura!
"This Wang Liren is not simple!"
The two Pillars of Shadow instantly realized that Ye Ling was no ordinary world-ending god. They immediately turned and pursued him towards Luofeng City, only to find that during their momentary distraction, both Ye Ling and Tian Xing were no longer in the city!
Ye Ling and Tian Xing's auras had vanished into thin air!
"Both of them are gone?"
The two Pillars of Shadow discovered that Ye Ling had abducted Tian Xing right under their noses, and their hearts were thrown into turmoil. They immediately expanded their divine senses to search millions of miles around, yet still found no trace of Tian Xing!
"This is bad!"
The two Pillars of Shadow realized something serious had happened and immediately ordered the entire army, commanding all dark creatures to search for Tian Xing's whereabouts!
Tian Xing was equivalent to the marshal of their dark army, controlling the overall strategy and being a crucial pillar in their confrontation with the Emperor's Hall!
Before Tian Xing, the dark creatures were a scattered mess. It often took the loss of millions of dark creatures to eliminate a hundred cultivators from the Emperor's Hall's side.
After Tian Xing took command of the entire army, the battle loss ratio between the dark creatures and the Emperor's Hall had dropped to one thousand to one. Coupled with the continuous birth of dark creatures, this loss ratio was enough to inflict heavy losses on the Emperor's Hall, forcing them to continuously shrink their front lines.
It could be said that Tian Xing alone accounted for eighty percent of the credit for the current situation of the dark creatures in the Chaos Battlefield!
However, if Tian Xing were to be dealt with by Wang Liren, their dark creatures would once again become a scattered mess, and the Emperor's Hall would counterattack.
Currently, the Lord of the Upper Realm was being held back in the Abyss of Nothingness by Good and Evil. Once Tian Xing fell, their dark army would be without a leader for a considerable period!
While the dark army was in chaos, Ye Ling had already abducted Tian Xing into the independent space he had constructed.
Tian Xing had not expected Ye Ling to so easily bypass the two Pillars of Shadow to kidnap her. She was extremely shocked and asked Ye Ling, "Who exactly are you?"
Even the chosen ones who successfully entered the Chaos Battlefield were not as powerful as Ye Ling!
Ye Ling smiled at Tian Xing and said, "Don't be so nervous. I just have two questions for you. After I ask them, I'll let you go."
Tian Xing did not believe Ye Ling's words. She secretly gathered her strength, and to stall for time, she asked Ye Ling, "You're not from the Emperor's Hall, are you?"
Ye Ling smiled and replied, "You could say I'm half."
"Half?" Tian Xing was stunned. "What do you mean?"
"That's enough. It's my turn to ask questions now."
Ye Ling did not intend to continue answering Tian Xing. He directly summoned his Devouring Domain, draining all the power from Tian Xing's body, and said, "Don't struggle. In my independent space, no one can find you. Without my permission, you'll never escape." Seeing her power completely drained, Tian Xing suddenly realized something and exclaimed in shock, "This is the Devouring Domain? You're Ye Ling?"
A flicker of surprise crossed Ye Ling's eyes. "You actually know me?"
He hadn't expected his reputation to have spread to the Chaos Battlefield, and that even Tian Xing knew of his domain.
If that were the case, what was the point of him trying so hard to disguise himself as Wang Liren earlier?
At this moment, Tian Xing retreated in terror, saying incredulously, "No, impossible! Weren't you already annihilated by the Master? Why are you here in the Chaos Battlefield?"
Ye Ling was the only chosen one who had killed the Seven Pillars and the Pillars of Shadow in the Lower Realm of Origin, forcing the Lord of the Upper Realm to personally intervene and kill him.
Although Ye Ling had not entered the Chaos Battlefield, his name had already resounded throughout this land. Many dark creatures even discussed in secret that once Ye Ling entered the Chaos Battlefield, he would grow into another supreme expert comparable to Good and Evil!
At that time, the Lord of the Upper Realm would perish!
Tian Xing had initially believed that after the Lord of the Upper Realm's personal intervention, an unprecedented scourge had been eliminated, and their dark creatures would eventually occupy the Chaos Battlefield and invade the Lower Realm of Origin.
But now, Ye Ling stood alive before her, giving her a sense of foreboding.
Suddenly, she had a premonition that the Lord of the Upper Realm would be defeated!
Seeing the terror in Tian Xing's eyes turn into despair, Ye Ling couldn't help but say, "Is my survival that exaggerated?"
Tian Xing regained her composure, pursed her lips, and seemed to have figured something out. She asked Ye Ling, "What do you want to ask?"
Ye Ling smiled playfully at Tian Xing's sudden change in attitude and then asked, "It's simple. First question, where is the Emperor's Hall?"
Tian Xing quickly replied, "The Emperor's Hall is in the east of the Chaos Battlefield. You are currently in the west, deep within the territory of the dark army."
"No wonder… I've massacred so many cities and haven't seen a shadow of the Emperor's Hall."
Ye Ling muttered, then asked Tian Xing again, "Do you know the method to travel to the Upper Realm of Origin?"
Tian Xing's soul, which had been in despair, trembled again. She looked at Ye Ling in shock and asked incredulously, "You're going to the Upper Realm of Origin?"
