"Brain" sensed Ye Ling beginning to use the World-Demon Heart, and instead of panicking, it mocked Ye Ling, "Ye Ling, I won't fall for the same trick twice..."
Before "Brain" could finish speaking, it found that Ye Ling in its vision had become itself.
And it was smiling at itself!
"Brain" stared at its own reflection, its processing momentarily halted. It then reacted, frantically destroying the meridians within Ye Ling's body while shouting at Ye Ling, who had taken over its body, "This is impossible! What did you do to me?"
After being controlled by Auguha Gang with the World-Demon Heart, it had been guarding against Ye Ling's World-Demon Heart. Even if it couldn't defend against karma techniques, it shouldn't have been so easily swapped with Ye Ling!
"I didn't do anything much, just found a backdoor."
Ye Ling smiled at "Brain" and then closed his eyes to comprehend "Brain's" perception after its breakthrough.
Seeing Ye Ling's action, "Brain" instantly understood that Ye Ling hadn't swapped bodies to kill it, but to steal its comprehension of the Void Sword!
"Damn it! You thief!"
"Brain" stopped trying to destroy Ye Ling's body and began to struggle mentally, trying to return to its own body.
Since "Brain's" current strength was similar to Ye Ling's, and Ye Ling seemed to have found some sort of valve within its body, "Brain" struggled intensely within Ye Ling's body but couldn't break free.
Instead, during "Brain's" struggle, Yuan Wen had repaired Ye Ling's damaged body.
"Brain" noticed Ye Ling's body healing itself and questioned Ye Ling, "Did you plan to swap bodies with me from the start?"
However, Ye Ling did not respond to "Brain's" query, instead working overtime to absorb "Brain's" enlightenment on the Void Sword.
Although Ye Ling had made many secret preparations before using the World-Demon Heart, and even had intelligence gained from Auguha Gang's body swap with "Brain," he couldn't occupy "Brain's" body for too long.
In this time-sensitive period, Ye Ling had to steal as much of "Brain's" comprehension of the Void Sword as possible.
Seeing that Ye Ling had no intention of responding, not even defending himself, "Brain" completely "brained out."
However, at this moment, Ye Ling occupied "Brain's" body, and "Brain" dared not heavily attack its own flesh. It could only accelerate its escape from the World-Demon Heart's influence to return to its own body.
Thus, the battle between Ye Ling and "Brain" miraculously subsided.
Ten seconds later, Ye Ling, who was still stealing "Brain's" comprehension of the Void Sword, felt his spirit begin to dissipate. He realized the World-Demon Heart was nearing its limit and immediately withdrew from the learning state. He then began to convert "Brain's" body and memories into text, starting to delete "Brain's" comprehension of the Void Sword en masse!
"Ye! Ling!"
The next moment, "Brain's" roar echoed. Ye Ling returned to his own body and saw the distorted face of "Brain" lunging at him.
"Furious, are we?"
Ye Ling's eyes flashed with a hint of a smile as he saw "Brain's" contorted expression. He immediately used the World to decompose his body into particles.
The next moment, Ye Ling's body was torn apart by "Brain's" violent power.
"Brain" had once again reduced the future.
However, Ye Ling, who had used the World in advance, suffered no damage. He reformed into a solid entity not far away, beginning to savor the comprehension he had gained within "Brain's" body.
As for "Brain," due to Ye Ling's reckless deletion of memories, its brain was in chaos. It would take some time just to organize its memories, let alone enter the third stage of the Void Sword.
In the Karma Mirror Domain, Karma, observing the battle between Ye Ling and "Brain," couldn't help but murmur, "No wonder Auguha Gang was rated as the third-ranked Innate Demon Spirit. I thought his World-Demon Heart was inferior to my Karma Mirror Domain... Now it seems Auguha Gang has unknowingly surpassed me by far."
Even with his limited experience, Karma could see at this moment that the World-Demon Heart had played a decisive role, completely changing the situation between Ye Ling and "Brain."
"So that's how it is... The abilities each person comprehends from the Void Sword are indeed different..."
Ye Ling quietly savored "Brain's" comprehension of the Void Sword, then used that comprehension to verify his own learned Void Sword. Ye Ling was now progressing at an extraordinary pace.
Before long, Ye Ling, relying on "Brain's" comprehension, entered the second stage of the Void Sword and began to advance towards the third stage.
"Brain" sensed the significant change in Ye Ling's aura and panicked. However, it no longer launched random attacks at Ye Ling, instead beginning to organize its memories to return to normal.
Unknowingly, "Brain" had gone from being able to crush Ye Ling just by entering the third stage of the Void Sword, to needing to race against Ye Ling to see who would master the complete Void Sword first.
Under Ye Ling's meticulous calculations, "Brain" was gradually falling into an invisible net.
On the periphery of the battlefield, Vivian, who was constantly using Star Cores to fend off Void Darkside monsters, received the battle report between Ye Ling and "Brain" from Karma. She couldn't help but ask Auguha Gang, "What exactly did you do to help the boss? Karma said the boss easily swapped bodies with 'Brain' using the World-Demon Heart, and 'Brain' couldn't easily change back."
A hint of pride flashed in Auguha Gang's eyes, and he humbly smiled, "I didn't do much, just helped the boss with a small favor."
Seeing Auguha Gang's smug expression, Vivian rolled her eyes and said irritably, "Look at you, so proud. If you don't want to say it, I don't want to listen!"
Auguha Gang said, "Let me tell you. Actually, I controlled 'Brain' with the World-Demon Heart for a period before. I discovered a large void in 'Brain's' soul, and 'Brain' seemed unaware of its flaw. Before 'Brain' killed me, I informed the boss of this information."
Vivian raised an eyebrow, "Who would have thought! You actually did something so significant without anyone knowing. That 'Brain' guy is really screwed over by you!"
Auguha Gang puffed out his chest and laughed, "Of course. I am a genuine World-Demon Spirit, ranked third among Innate Demon Spirits!"
"So boastful!" Vivian retorted.
Auguha Gang said indignantly, "You're just jealous!"
As Auguha Gang and Vivian were chatting, a black monster surged out of the darkness and lunged at Auguha Gang and Vivian with its sharp claws!
Facing the sneak attack from the monster, Auguha Gang and Vivian, who were bickering, couldn't dodge in time!
At this moment, a blue starlight streaked between Auguha Gang and Vivian. A Star Core pierced the monster's eye and then exploded with a bang!
Blinding starlight, along with black blood, splashed onto the stunned Auguha Gang and Vivian.
Chu Yun appeared between the two and reprimanded, "You two, focus!"
Auguha Gang and Vivian immediately stood at attention, "Yes!"
