Realizing that "Foot" also possessed a causality technique, Ye Ling dared not be careless. He immediately condensed his Source Text, customizing his future to offset the causal force of "Foot."
Ye Ling was not familiar with causality-based skills and did not know how to counter them. Therefore, the only thing he could do was to use the simplest and most brutal method: countering causality with causality.
A large amount of Source Text condensed into an article in front of Ye Ling, altering the future where Ye Ling's leg should have been broken.
Perhaps it was because Ye Ling had absorbed the power of the Primal Soul King, causing a qualitative leap in his strength, or perhaps the causality technique used by "Foot" was not as powerful as Tian Ji's Ten Breaths Annihilation. Ye Ling's spiritual power was only depleted by less than one-tenth after this future customization.
For Ye Ling, who had mastered the Devouring Domain, as long as the spiritual power he consumed did not completely exhaust his body, it was equivalent to no consumption.
The Devouring Domain spread outwards, madly devouring the surrounding power. The spiritual power consumed by Ye Ling was instantly replenished, and his aura returned to its peak.
"You know causality techniques too? Where did you learn them?"
"Foot," who had teleported far away, reappeared, looking at Ye Ling with disbelief and shock in his eyes.
Causality techniques were recognized as one of the strongest divine skill categories in the void. As long as a cause was set, an effect would inevitably occur. This ability ignored space, time, cultivation realms, and even any conditions. Once a causality technique took effect, it was impossible to offset.
To offset the power of a causality technique, one had to use a causality technique to offset it.
Therefore, those who mastered causality techniques held an absolute advantage over those who did not, regardless of their cultivation realms.
A significant portion of "Foot's" confidence stemmed from his mastered causality technique – Absolute Divine Movement.
With Absolute Divine Movement, "Foot" could freely traverse any barrier and blockade, and also change the position of any object, including living beings.
The reason Ye Ling had foreseen his leg breaking without warning just now was that "Foot" had used Absolute Divine Movement to separate Ye Ling's body from his leg.
Originally, "Foot" intended to torment Ye Ling slowly, breaking him down into pieces. However, he did not expect Ye Ling to directly use a causality technique, disrupting all his plans!
The conditions for learning causality techniques were extremely harsh. Logically, no one in the Primal Chaos should have been able to master them...
Ye Ling's current performance surpassed "Foot's" understanding of the Primal Chaos!
At this moment, "Foot" also gradually understood why "Brain" wanted to invade the Primal Chaos and establish the Overseer headquarters there.
Seeing "Foot" appear in the distance, Ye Ling immediately condensed Source Text chains around "Foot." Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, he swiftly entangled "Foot," preparing to devour his power with the Devouring Domain.
However, as soon as the chains wrapped around "Foot," he vanished from his original position and appeared elsewhere.
The Source Text chains grasped at empty air.
"As expected, a causality technique... Is this ability of his related to spatial movement?"
Ye Ling noticed that "Foot" had easily evaded his Source Text chains, and a hint of solemnity appeared in his eyes. He felt that things were becoming somewhat tricky.
Although he also mastered the causality technique of customizing the future, he had not fully developed this skill yet. It was, at best, a half-finished product.
Ye Ling could use customizing the future to offset "Foot's" causality technique, but if he were to customize "Foot's" death, he might not be able to bear the required power.
If it resulted in a mutual kill, it would not be worth it.
"However, using causality techniques should come with corresponding costs. I need to consume double the spiritual power. Tian Ji's Ten Breaths Annihilation also required ten seconds and had limited uses... 'Foot's' causality technique should also have some unknown cost!"
Following this line of reasoning, Ye Ling attacked "Foot" again!
With the ability to foresee the future, Ye Ling could easily capture "Foot's" movement trajectory. He soon closed in on "Foot" and slashed at him with a long sword condensed from Source Text.
"Ye Ling, don't underestimate me too much!"
Seeing Ye Ling actively attack and pursue him, "Foot" was completely enraged!
This was supposed to be a encirclement operation by them, the Overseers, against Ye Ling, but now Ye Ling had reversed the situation single-handedly, causing heavy losses to the Overseers...
"Foot" could not accept this outcome and harbored deep hatred for Ye Ling. He decided not to hold back any longer and prepared to kill Ye Ling at all costs!
"Foot" activated some kind of power, his entire body began to blur, and he exuded a very ominous aura.
Sensing "Foot's" current aura, Ye Ling suddenly found that all his foreseen futures had vanished.
"What is this!"
Ye Ling's pupils contracted slightly. He immediately retracted his sword and distanced himself from "Foot." A鬼脸 appeared on "Foot's" face as he grinned menacingly at Ye Ling.
"Ye Ling! Die!"
"Foot" screamed and lunged at Ye Ling like a ferocious beast.
Although Ye Ling did not know what "Foot" had done, his intuition told him that if he were caught by "Foot," the consequences would be unimaginable!
"I can't confront him directly! I must retreat for now!"
Ye Ling made a swift decision and began to retreat, trying to create distance between himself and "Foot." However, no matter how far Ye Ling retreated, the distance between "Foot" and Ye Ling continued to shrink!
"Ye Ling, you can't escape!"
"Foot" screamed sternly and, with extreme speed, pounced onto Ye Ling. His ten fingers transformed into sharp claws, piercing into Ye Ling's body.
A soul-piercing pain spread throughout Ye Ling's entire body. "Foot" then opened his gaping maw, his sharp fangs biting towards Ye Ling.
"What a joke! You think you can bite me?"
Seeing "Foot" suddenly become like a mad dog, Ye Ling immediately condensed Source Text on his skin surface, attempting to resist "Foot's" bite. However, as soon as the Source Text formed, it all disappeared.
Ye Ling could still sense the existence of his Source Text, but those Source Texts were now tens of thousands of miles away!
"He can move my power!"
Ye Ling discovered that his Source Text had been moved. He immediately realized that "Foot" had used a causality technique again and quickly used Source Text to customize the future.
However, "Foot" seemed to have already anticipated Ye Ling's move. As soon as Ye Ling's Source Text condensed and before it could form an article, all of it was teleported to various locations in the Primal Chaos, making it impossible for Ye Ling to customize the future with Source Text.
"Ye Ling... Stop struggling. I have used Absolute Divine Movement to transfer all your power outside your body. You are now just a useless husk!"
"Foot" shouted maniacally and bit down fiercely on Ye Ling's neck.
The sharp fangs easily pierced Ye Ling's skin, and a dense black energy poured into Ye Ling's body.
At this moment, the auras of Ye Ling and "Foot" simultaneously plummeted.
