Supernatural Insight Eyes

Chapter 2338: Chapter 2339: Life and Death! Second Update

Wrapped in murderous intent, Ye Qiu, in his blackened state, resembled a beast, and killing became his instinct.

At this moment, Ye Qiu had completely lost his rationality. All he wanted was to kill Di Yan in front of him. Regardless of how powerful the opponent was, he would not be afraid. He would only stop once the opponent was slain.

Facing a master of Di Yan’s level, having such a desire to strike, there were only a few people in the entire Ancestor Land who could achieve this.

"He’s demonized; now he’s no longer himself."

Bai Lingtian’s voice sounded behind Bai Muxue, carrying a hint of helplessness and regret in his tone.

Upon hearing this, Bai Muxue’s body slightly trembled.

"Is there no way to calm him down?" Bai Muxue asked.

Bai Lingtian gave a wry smile, "This is a power unique to the Dugu clan, which can enhance a martial artist’s power, but it’s a double-edged sword. Once this power is not well controlled, it will cloud the mind, letting negative emotions take control. Unless he can overcome these negative emotions, no outsider can help him."

Regarding Ye Qiu in his blackened state, Bai Lingtian surprisingly knew quite a lot, which was extraordinarily rare among the Saints because it involved the bloodline power of the Dugu clan—something the Heavenly Palace had been trying hard to hide, not wanting others to know. Yet, unexpectedly, Bai Lingtian understood a piece of the truth.

If even his father said there was no way, then there probably wasn’t one.

Bai Muxue worried that Ye Qiu in such a state wouldn’t achieve anything; rather, it would destroy him, especially in the face of such a terrifying strongman as Di Yan.

"Brother Ye..." Li Jin in the distance clenched his fists. He wanted badly to help handle Di Yan together with Ye Qiu, but he restrained that impulse. He knew his own weakness; facing Di Yan, he wouldn’t last a single move—pure suicide. Moreover, in Ye Qiu’s condition, if he got too close, Ye Qiu might even kill him, too.

He was anxious for Ye Qiu, hoping Ye Qiu could regain his senses and not be consumed by murderous intent.

"Once you go mad, you become a killing machine—the more terrifying the power, the greater the damage." The Stone Demon Lord’s Holy Son stood in the universe, commenting as he watched this scene.

"Will you awaken?" The Turquoise Pool’s Saintess murmured to herself.

Everyone who was familiar with Ye Qiu had complex thoughts now. The Ye Qiu before them was a stark contrast to his usual self, devoid of any rationality, just a beast constantly attacking, only to be repeatedly shot down by Di Yan.

With his power, if he could remain calm while blackened, maybe he would have a fighting chance. But Ye Qiu, overwhelmed by slaughter, lost his calmness and thoughtfulness. His combat power could only be displayed to half, even three-tenths, leading only to being repeatedly knocked away by Di Yan.

If this went on, once blackened and expending all his power, Ye Qiu’s fate would be in the hands of the Heavenly Palace, and his end would be worse than the other descendants of the Dugu clan.

"A perfect Xuanhuang physique, soon to belong to me. As for you, I’ll let you follow in the footsteps of your ancestors and feel my Heavenly Palace’s focus on your Dugu clan."

As he spoke, Di Yan’s eyes sparkled like lightning, staring at Ye Qiu, causing Ye Qiu’s body to suddenly freeze and stop.

Di Yan didn’t continue using physical attacks; this time, he was determined to crush Ye Qiu with soul power.

He planned to strip away Ye Qiu’s soul and seize the physical body with his divine soul.

At this moment, Di Yan was preparing for a coup de grâce.

The Xuanhuang physique was legendary in the Ancestor Land. Even he, a former Emperor, did not possess it.

Firstly, this was partly because the Heavenly Palace and the Path of the Milky Way were incompatible, making it unreachable. Secondly, few could construct a Xuanhuang physique, perhaps only one in several centuries with great fortune.

If this time he couldn’t leave Ye Qiu behind and give him room to grow, the extent Ye Qiu would reach, not even Di Yan could imagine.

At such an age, Ye Qiu could contend with him, a former Emperor. If given more time, there would probably be no one in the Heavenly Palace who could match him.

To be honest, deep down, Di Yan felt an enormous threat from this young Ye Qiu. It’s not that Ye Qiu could threaten him now, but Ye Qiu’s potential was too astonishing. If allowed to grow further, stepping into the Dao Sovereign level, and with the aid of blackening, perhaps no one could restrain him.

Therefore, in his mind, he must ensure Ye Qiu is left behind.

Swoosh.

Di Yan’s formidable soul emerged from his body, eyes wide open as those around witnessed his soul, which was the same size as his physical self, radiating golden light like a golden statue.

With a flash, the soul darted directly into Ye Qiu’s mind, ready to battle souls to end this fight.

Once Di Yan’s soul entered the mind, Ye Qiu’s soul was also in a blackened state, still charging mindlessly.

"Such strong soul power, truly surprising, but..." after a moment of surprise, Di Yan sneered, "But it’s still not enough."

With these words, he launched a soul attack.

Bang.

Ye Qiu’s mind transformed into a battlefield. Under Di Yan’s mighty soul power attack, his soul was blasted away, significantly diminishing his soul power.

Swoosh.

Ye Qiu’s soul body attacked again, but Di Yan remained unfazed, casually lifting his palm and striking.

Just like in reality, Ye Qiu was no match for Di Yan in a soul battle.

The only similarity was that Ye Qiu’s physical body was difficult to destroy, and so was his soul.

An invisible rule armor enveloped his soul body, minimizing damage taken, allowing him to endure multiple attacks while still quickly rising.

Once more, Di Yan was slightly surprised at how tenacious the soul of this Dugu clan remnant was, truly unexpected.

"Indeed, I cannot let you live; if you were to grow, the Heavenly Palace would truly face a formidable enemy." This was Di Yan’s assessment of Ye Qiu.

However, his words did not reach the ears of those outside watching; otherwise, those spectators would be astounded at how highly Di Yan regarded Ye Qiu.

"If I occupy your body, would your talents become mine? I’m increasingly looking forward to it."

Di Yan’s divine light flickered, unwilling to drag out the fight with one attack after another. He aimed to resolve Ye Qiu in one strike, and even if not killing him, render him immobile.

Suddenly, Di Yan gathered his soul power in his hand, forming a terrifying sphere.

The sphere of soul power was filled with destructive force.

This power was useless against the physical body, but against the soul, it was highly lethal.

Glancing at Ye Qiu charging once again, Di Yan coldly sneered and launched the soul attack in his hand.

"Go."

The formidable soul attack instantly enveloped Ye Qiu.

His soul began to vanish.
