Chapter 151 A Trace of Remnant Soul

The name of the underground city was an insurmountable existence for all sects on Blue Star. Everyone believed that Yu Xing had obtained a legacy in the underground city and reached the Nascent Soul stage. Currently, there were no Nascent Soul level existences on Blue Star, and those at the Core Formation stage could be counted on ten fingers. Finally, the remaining cultivators in the forest left with unwillingness. Song Mingqin looked back at Ye Qingyi with a hint of doubt in his heart. He could discern Ye Qingcheng's cultivation as mid-Core Formation, but he couldn't see through Ye Qingyi's cultivation. When he tried to sense it, he found his perception sinking into emptiness and darkness. "This..." Song Mingqin could only give up. In this situation, it was highly likely that Ye Qingyi's cultivation was higher than his, hence his inability to sense it. Alternatively, Ye Qingyi's cultivation technique might be special, making it difficult for Song Mingqin to gauge her strength. Ye Bufan, lying on the floor, looked distressed, appearing to be in great pain. "What's wrong with Ye Bufan?" Ye Qingcheng asked, looking at Ye Bufan with concern. Ji Feiyang also arrived at this time, bringing some skilled accompanying doctors to examine Ye Bufan's body. "Don't move," Ye Qingyi said to Ji Feiyang. "No one can help him now; he has to rely on himself. If he can pull through, he might turn misfortune into a blessing. If he can't, we must be prepared to end his life. The Eight-Headed Serpent has set its sights on his body. In the critical moment just now, the Eight-Headed Serpent's consciousness invaded Ye Bufan's body and is now fighting for ownership of it." Ji Feiyang stood by watching Ye Bufan, while Song Mingqin searched the surroundings to ensure no one would harm Ye Bufan. Within Ye Bufan's consciousness, the Eight-Headed Serpent's consciousness was intertwining with his, both repelling each other and trying to expel the other from the body. "Get out!" Ye Bufan's consciousness roared. The Eight-Headed Serpent's consciousness intertwined with Ye Bufan's again, and they were locked in a fierce struggle. Ye Bufan was constantly trying to find a solution, without daring to slacken for a moment. If he faltered, the Eight-Headed Serpent might swallow him and successfully take over his body. "No, I absolutely cannot let this worm succeed." Ye Bufan pondered, thinking if he could use the energy from the Dragon Emperor Token within his body to expel the Eight-Headed Serpent. However, he quickly gave up. That energy was immune to spiritual attacks; this he had to handle himself. So, Ye Bufan began to recall what Lin Xiaoyao had taught him in the past. At that time, Ye Bufan found the mental illusion technique, Phantom Sound Demonic Eyes, simple and easier to use, so he learned it. But Lin Xiaoyao had also given him another option, called the Heavenly Gang Wheel. That technique was difficult to master and required extremely powerful mental energy. However, once mastered, most mental techniques in the world would become effortless. Upon mastering the Heavenly Gang Wheel, a colossal spiritual wheel would appear on the sea of consciousness, rotating ceaselessly day and night, cultivating itself. Its greatest strength was its ability to boost one's own mental energy. If there was an external spiritual attack, the Heavenly Gang Wheel would activate, devouring the attacker's consciousness and assimilating it. "Practice now?" Ye Bufan made up his mind to trap the Eight-Headed Serpent here permanently. Ye Bufan gathered all his mental energy and began to circulate it according to the mental energy cultivation method in his memory. "Hmph! You still want to use mental energy techniques within your own body?" the Eight-Headed Serpent lunged towards Ye Bufan. Ye Bufan dodged, multitasking, and continuously circulated the Heavenly Gang Wheel cultivation method. Above the sea of consciousness, Ye Bufan's mental energy coalesced. In his consciousness, a giant "eye" resembling a typhoon's eye appeared above the sea of consciousness. He slowly opened his eyes and found himself seeing from the perspective of that giant, typhoon-like eye. The Eight-Headed Serpent was slightly taken aback, not understanding why Ye Bufan's sea of consciousness had suddenly changed. "Hmm?" At this moment, Ye Bufan felt a stir from his spatial jade pendant, and a figure appeared in his sea of consciousness. "Disciple, you've finally started cultivating the Heavenly Gang Wheel," Lin Xiaoyao's voice echoed in Ye Bufan's mind. The Eight-Headed Serpent glanced at the apparition of Lin Xiaoyao and snorted, "Who are you?" "Hmm? Eight-Headed Serpent," Lin Xiaoyao said casually, looking at Ye Bufan's consciousness. Ye Bufan gave an awkward smile, and Lin Xiaoyao immediately understood what was happening. "No wonder you suddenly want to cultivate the Heavenly Gang Wheel. I wanted you to practice it before, but you refused. So you've been invaded by this fellow," Lin Xiaoyao snorted and looked at the Eight-Headed Serpent's consciousness. "My disciple, Lin Xiaoyao, is not someone whose body you can just take over." With that, Lin Xiaoyao formed a hand seal, and a beam of white light fell upon the Eight-Headed Serpent. "Since there's a spiritual entity here, I'll use you as a catalyst to help my disciple cultivate the Heavenly Gang Wheel." "No!" The Eight-Headed Serpent, who had been feeling quite smug, suddenly realized Lin Xiaoyao was not someone to be trifled with. In Lin Xiaoyao's presence, the Eight-Headed Serpent was insignificant. Finally, the Eight-Headed Serpent was struck by Lin Xiaoyao's hand seal and transformed into a cyan ball of light. Ye Bufan looked at Lin Xiaoyao, a hint of excitement on his face. "Disciple thanks Master," Ye Bufan said to Lin Xiaoyao with his consciousness. "Scram," Lin Xiaoyao rolled his eyes and said, "My disciple is this pathetic? If this were to spread to the myriad worlds I came from, I'd be laughed to death." Ye Bufan smiled sheepishly and said, "There's always someone better, and there's always a higher heaven. Isn't this what you've always taught me since I was young?" Lin Xiaoyao glanced at Ye Bufan and said, "The foundation of cultivating the Heavenly Gang Wheel is to have a continuous supply of mental energy as a catalyst for the wheel to form and operate on the sea of consciousness. You couldn't even condense it back then, but now you can form a slight shape. With the Eight-Headed Serpent's spiritual energy, you should be able to cultivate the Heavenly Gang Wheel." Ye Bufan looked at Lin Xiaoyao with gratitude and his consciousness immediately entered the cultivation state. "Alas, fortunately, I had foresight and left behind a wisp of my residual soul in different places and at different stages, otherwise, I would truly fear you perishing halfway."
