I Can Devour Spirits

As the scenery before his eyes blurred, Wei Ziyan’s ears suddenly became silent, as if all sound had been extracted.

In the instant the sound was extracted, the scene before his eyes reappeared after a moment of shaking.

It was still the streets of Xianggu County, but the entire street was empty, not a single person in sight.

The Xianggu County town before him seemed to have become an empty city.

"This is..."

Though Wei Ziyan was in the midst of an anomaly, his mind remained clear.

"It’s a Divine Soul Illusion Technique!"

"I’ve been captivated by an illusion technique, my divine soul has entered an illusion realm!"

Wei Ziyan suddenly heard a commotion, the sound ethereal, as if coming from a very distant place, and it disappeared in an instant.

Wei Ziyan slowly walked towards the place where the sound arose, staring deeply and pondering, trying to find a breakthrough point to shatter the illusion realm before his eyes.

But when he arrived, the sound had already disappeared, there was only an old courtyard wall covered with moss.

Just then, the empty street of Xianggu began to snow...

Wei Ziyan had just noticed the snowflakes falling when he was startled to find that the whole world had turned into a stretch of silver white.

The entire Xianggu street was dead silent, Wei Ziyan’s footsteps crunching the snow.

As he took a few steps, he suddenly noticed what seemed to be a person lying on the snow by the street.

The person was covered with a thin layer of snow, face down in the snow, whether dead or alive was unknown.

Wei Ziyan’s expression changed slightly and he slowly approached, discovering that the snow beneath the person revealed a patch of scarlet blood the moment he neared.

Even knowing he was in an illusion realm, Wei Ziyan’s curiosity drove him to turn the person over.

Upon doing so, he saw a slightly rusted axe lodged in the person’s chest.

For some reason, the handle of the axe made Wei Ziyan’s chest ache.

"This...woodcutting axe?"

As Wei Ziyan looked at the person’s face, a long-buried memory suddenly surged into his mind.

He remembered who this person was.

This person was the first one he ever killed!

He was thirteen that year! This person was a ruffian from the village. That day he was returning from cutting wood and happened to catch this person breaking into his house, attempting to molest his mother. In fury, Wei Ziyan stabbed the ruffian to death.

The incident erupted. The relatives of the person clamored to report it to the authorities, and in panic, Wei Ziyan fled the village.

Wei Ziyan continued walking along the empty market street. Suddenly, he saw seven or eight corpses hanging from a dead tree by the street.

Wei Ziyan immediately recognized one of them wearing an elder’s robe!

That was from when he turned outlaw, raiding a manor with others. That night, he and his comrades killed every man, woman, and child in the manor!

As Wei Ziyan continued forward, everyone he had killed appeared one by one along the street.

The snow-covered street seemed to be a corridor of memories marked by the killings in his life.

Wei Ziyan’s steps stopped there, questioning whether he had the courage to walk to the end of this street...

Does a person truly have the courage to look back on a lifetime of sin?

Does he?

At that moment, the snow-covered street before his eyes suddenly collapsed, the illusion dissolved, and a real world emerged beyond the disintegrating illusion...

The sounds in his ears suddenly became chaotic, a real cacophony of the world...

Wei Ziyan suddenly found himself still standing by a broken-down carriage, a Profound Iron Black Arrow fallen before him.

The headless bloody corpse of Tian’er lay not far away; it seemed some time had passed, the pool of blood from Tian’er’s corpse had already reached his feet.

Turning his head, Wei Ziyan saw a raggedy young man standing on a nearby courtyard wall. He was holding a bow single-handedly, the bowstring still quivering.

It was evident that this person had killed Tian’er!

As Duan Rong heard the cry of an eagle and looked up, he saw above, four figures leaping down from the circling Cloud Feather Fierce Eagle.

The four seemed to have used the Thousand Jin Fall technique, suddenly accelerating mid-air, crashing down like meteors breaking through the sky!

In that instant, Duan Rong’s mind was set in motion, dispelling the Divine Soul Illusion Technique captivating Wei Ziyan!

The reason Duan Rong dared to take action against Wei Ziyan and Ge Qinglei before the sect’s support arrived was that he had calculated internally and believed that the Divine Soul Illusion Technique should be able to captivate Wei Ziyan.

After three years in the Endless Mountains, besides achieving the True Qi Realm Great Perfection, he had also achieved Tier Two of Ying Huo’s Divine Soul Illusion Technique!

Without this technique, how would he dare act against Wei Ziyan!

After all, this person bore the title of Head Altar Law Envoy, and it is said that there are no mediocre men under a brilliant reputation. Duan Rong, having had some contact with the Filthy Blood Sect, knew how deep this sect’s waters ran. Especially as Wei Ziyan was one of the five Head Altar Law Envoys, how could Duan Rong not be cautious?

Originally, Duan Rong’s plan was for Xiao Yu and Ximen Kankan to retreat after killing Ruan Fengshan!

As for Wei Ziyan and Ge Qinglei, with his current strength, he could not kill them temporarily!

But at this moment, the sect’s support arrived!

Since the sect’s support had arrived, Wei Ziyan and Ge Qinglei were handed over for them to handle!

Seizing the opportune moment, Duan Rong lifted the Divine Soul Illusion Technique, for persistently using Ying Huo’s Tier Two to captivate Wei Ziyan was consuming Duan Rong greatly.
