Seventh Heaven.
After the great battle, everyone was digesting the gains from it.
Battle experience, and an ever-deeper understanding of the Great Dao.
This was a necessary process.
Boom.
In the distance, a demon spirit appeared.
"Come on, I'll beat you to death." Old Demon Chu was being unruly again.
He had threatened the Dao Spirit out again.
Ever since he learned the method of threatening Dao Spirits from Chen Fan, this guy would threaten the demon spirit once in a while.
It was estimated that the demon spirit had inherited Old Demon Chu's personality and was also a battle-lover.
Cannot provoke it, as soon as it is provoked, it will definitely come out.
The Mad Emperor and the others in the distance watched with envy.
They also wanted to do this, but Dao Spirits usually ignored them. They would be lucky to succeed once in ten times.
Only Old Demon Chu succeeded every time.
Bang bang bang.
The Dao Spirit and Old Demon Chu were fighting enthusiastically.
They attacked each other as if they were trying to kill, not holding back at all.
The battle was fierce, and the two of them turned the chaos upside down.
In the distance, Huang, who had just joined, was stunned: "This... what's going on?"
Could cultivators fight with their Dao Spirits?
Moreover, he could tell that Old Demon Chu had not gained the Dao Spirit's recognition.
If the Dao Spirit had not recognized him, why would it appear?
"This... what's going on?" Huang's voice was full of shock.
The Dragon King shook his head: "The method of threatening Dao Spirits developed by City Lord Chen, these guys have all learned it.
Well... others can succeed once in ten times, but only this guy succeeds every time."
Huang: "..."
His worldview was refreshed.
So there was such a way.
Threatening the Dao Spirit.
Good heavens, a method unprecedented!
Huang suddenly felt out of place with these people, was he too serious?
Yes, it must be.
The Divine Phoenix had always been confident in his character.
The people in front of him were all lunatics.
That Old Demon Chu was fighting the Dao Spirit as if his life depended on it, neither of them holding back.
"City Lord."
Immortal Emperor and the others saw Chen Fan open his eyes and walked over.
"What is it?"
Chen Fan looked at the Mad Emperor first and said with a smile, "Congratulations."
The Mad Emperor had broken through to the eighth rank.
Now, only Overlord and Seven Killings were left in their team who had not broken through to the eighth rank.
"Heh heh."
The Mad Emperor was extremely happy to receive the City Lord's congratulations.
This scene made Overlord, who was about to speak, unhappy. He looked at Chen Fan and said, "I feel like I'm stuck in a very special situation. I've already touched the boundary of the eighth rank, and that thin membrane has been torn by me again and again."
"But every time I tear it apart, my aura only surges and then returns to its original point."
"It seems there's a force in the darkness that doesn't want me to break through."
"Hmm?"
Chen Fan raised an eyebrow.
Something like this?
But come to think of it, the situation was indeed a bit strange.
He knew Overlord's talent, which was definitely superior to the Mad Emperor's, yet now, even the Mad Emperor had broken through, but he remained stuck at the seventh rank.
It seemed there was a reason for this.
"Let me check," Chen Fan said.
"En."
Overlord did not refuse.
The reason he came over was to ask the City Lord to solve his problem.
Chen Fan did not waste any words and directly sent his divine sense into Overlord's body.
Buzz.
With Overlord disarmed of all defenses, his divine sense quickly traveled through Overlord's body.
"No problem?" Chen Fan opened his eyes.
Overlord, however, gave a helpless wry smile: "Can't you find it?"
For a moment, he felt a little discouraged.
For cultivators like them, progress in cultivation was paramount.
If this path of cultivation reached its end, it would be a huge blow to any cultivator.
Only when the end could not be seen could the motivation for cultivation be ignited.
"Don't worry."
Chen Fan did not want to see Overlord like this.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "If you don't mind, I'll use Yin and Yang to check for you again."
Yin and Yang could wash away the past and capture the future.
Although not as clear as the Dao of Time, it could still be done simply.
Overlord said indifferently: "What is there to mind? If my future path is cut off, I'd rather die."
He was also a cultivation fanatic.
The pursuit of realms and power was endless.
Seeing this, Chen Fan nodded.
Whoosh.
The River of Yin and Yang appeared.
"I need to use the river to wash your physical body. Except for your bones, I will dissolve your flesh and blood."
Overlord jumped in without a second thought.
He did not do this rashly, but out of trust in the City Lord.
Chen Fan also did not waste time...
Boom.
The River of Yin and Yang washed over Overlord's physical body like flowing water.
Without any defense, his physical body dissolved at a visible speed.
The flowing river water flowed down, and soon, Overlord became a skeleton.
His flesh and blood, as well as his vital essence, were all washed away by the River of Yin and Yang.
As the water flowed, a golden light gradually appeared on the skeleton, which was the strongest manifestation of the Body Dao.
"Ninth rank."
Immortal Emperor, who was standing nearby, suddenly spoke.
His voice was loud: "The future Overlord has entered the ninth rank."
"No."
Chen Fan, however, held a contrary opinion.
Although the River of Yin and Yang was one entity, Immortal Emperor had only seen what happened in the Yang River.
But he, as the master of the River of Yin and Yang, saw something that others could not.
In the Yin River, there was another Overlord.
"One entity, two sides?"
Chen Fan was shocked: "Or... dual souls?"
Boom.
The next moment, the Yin and Yang River, which had been flowing downstream, instantly returned to its origin.
Overlord, who had been stripped down to a skeleton, regained his flesh and blood.
"How is it?" Overlord's gaze turned towards him.
Buzz.
Chen Fan did not speak. His divine sense surged out, covering the sky and the earth, and entered Overlord's body.
"Don't resist, I seem to have discovered your secret."
As he spoke, his divine sense directly penetrated into Overlord's mind domain.
Overlord did not resist; instead, he let out a sigh of relief.
The mind domain referred to a person's spirit, divine sense, and soul... As one's cultivation grew stronger, their soul would also strengthen.
There were also quite a few cultivators who specialized in the soul.
Huang was one of them.
If a person's soul had problems, it was easy to go mad.
Boom!
Chen Fan entered Overlord's mind domain.
As soon as he entered, he saw a river that seemed to be endless.
The surging river water was the strength of Overlord's soul.
Above the river, a figure opened its eyes.
"City Lord."
This person was the origin of Overlord's soul.
Overlord asked, "Is there a problem with my soul?"
In his own mind domain, he could communicate with Chen Fan.
Chen Fan nodded: "I suspect that in your mind domain, there is another you."
"En?"
Overlord's mind was slow.
It took him a long time to digest this news: "Does this mean someone wants to possess me?"
"No."
Chen Fan shook his head: "There is another you here."
Overlord: "..."
He didn't understand.
