Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 752 - 729: Completely Subjugating the Wraith Commander
As the forces of the Four Great Powers withdrew one after another, Old Man Huang Niu heaved a sigh of relief and then instructed everyone to rest on the nearby mountaintops. There was no need to guard Ye Feng so closely.
However, Hong Qingyan still stood by Ye Feng's side and couldn't help but ask, "Senior Huang, you don't think anything will happen to Big Brother Ye, right?"
Yu Feiyu consoled from the side, "Don't worry, Sister Qingyan. Big Brother Ye is a man of good fortune and will be just fine!" ƒreewebɳovel.com
Although Hong Qingyan nodded, her face was still clouded with worry.
Old Man Huang Niu sighed and said, "Although I really want to help Lord Leader right now, it involves the domain of the spiritual soul, and I am powerless in this regard. From now on, it seems we must rely on Lord Leader himself."
As they talked, the three sat down. Xiao Rulong and Chi Jark went over to their ancient ancestor and said, "Ancestor, after we return from the Sky Burial Valley, we want to enter that place."
"Are you sure?" asked the two ancestors Xiao Chi.
"We have decided. At present, we are almost reaching perfection in the Golden Core Realm, but if we follow the normal cultivation path, it might still take several more years to break through to the Yin-Yang Realm. However, time waits for no one. In just over a year, the Great Wall of Heaven will collapse. We must break through to the Yin-Yang Realm before the Demon Horn Tribe launches a large-scale invasion so that we will have some ability to protect ourselves!" said Xiao Rulong.
Chi Jark also sighed and said, "You know, we are from the same era as the Lord Leader. Originally, the gap between him and us wasn't so big, but in just over a year, the Lord Leader has far surpassed us. Now he can even overwhelm Great Powers of the Yin-Yang Realm below the Three Seals. This makes us ashamed. If this continues, I'm afraid we won't even be able to see the Lord Leader's back in the near future."
After listening, the two ancestors Xiao Chi nodded and laughed, "It's good that you have such an enterprising spirit, but one thing—don't blindly compare yourself to others, especially with the Chosen One like Lord Leader, otherwise you'll be very frustrated, and it might even seriously affect your State of Mind's balance!"
"After we go back, we will arrange for you to enter that place. With your talent potential, you should probably be able to break through to the Yin-Yang Realm within about a year!"
Meanwhile, Ye Feng, who was locked in an intense confrontation with the Wraith Commander, no longer had any attention to spare for what was happening around him.
It must be said that the Wraith Commander was extremely powerful. Even though Ye Feng had fully activated the Divine Path Heavenly Edict Scroll, he couldn't trap it inside. The opponent was still struggling desperately.
"Damn boy, I told you, even with that scroll, you can't do anything to me with your current abilities. Wise up and let me out!" the Wraith Commander roared repeatedly.
Although Ye Feng had expended a tremendous amount of spiritual power, it was evident that the Wraith Commander had also taken significant losses. In fact, the gap between them wasn't very large—it was all a matter of who could hold out to the end.
"Letting you go is impossible!"
Ye Feng gritted his teeth and suddenly turned his gaze to the other three Wraiths, making a swift decision. Since he couldn't temporarily trap the Wraith Commander in the Divine Path Heavenly Edict Scroll, he might as well first capture the three weaker Wraiths and then focus wholeheartedly on the Wraith Commander.
Thinking this, Ye Feng's brow twitched again, and the rapidly spinning pale-gold Mental Power Nucleus erupted with a tremendous force that surged into the scroll.
Driven by the manipulation of his spiritual power, the Divine Path Heavenly Edict Scroll once again unleashed strands of Xuanhuang-colored light. The light, like ropes, wound around the three Wraiths, entangling them.
Suddenly, an immense pulling force erupted, and the three Wraiths were dragged into the Divine Path Heavenly Edict Scroll. In an instant, a sizzling sound erupted from the bodies of the three Wraiths, which spontaneously ignited.
"Ah... it hurts so much, Lord Leader save us, save us!" cried the three Wraiths, wailing for help.
But it didn't take long for the three Wraiths to be completely refined into ash, leaving behind only three drops of Golden Energy.
The Wraith Commander couldn't contain his rage at the sight, grinding his teeth and howling, "Damn you, you dare destroy my subordinates right before me, you've got nerve, you really do!"
While speaking, the Wraith Commander suddenly opened its bloody humanoid maw, and a barrage of terrifying malice-filled Wind Blades shot out like a pear blossom in a storm.
Spurt, spurt...
Where the Wind Blades passed, strands of Xuanhuang-colored golden threads were severed, and the Wraith Commander seemed about to break free.
"Think you can escape that easily?" Ye Feng said coldly. Now that he had eliminated the other three Wraiths, and the imminent danger outside was resolved, he could concentrate all his efforts on fighting this foe.
The pale-gold Mental Power Nucleus started spinning again, and the Divine Path Heavenly Edict Scroll erupted with even more dense, Xuanhuang-colored rays of light. The new lines quickly entangled the Wraith Commander once again, preventing it from breaking free.
"Dammit, boy, do you really want to fight to our mutual destruction? Let me tell you, if you carry on this way, even if you capture me, your spirit will suffer massive damage that will take no less than a decade to fully recover!" the Wraith Commander said with gritted teeth.
"So why not let me go now, and we both live and let live?" it continued.
Ye Feng sneered in response, "I've told you before, letting you go is impossible. Besides, with your ability, once I let you out, it is impossible for me to restrain you. Then, wouldn't all my companions and friends be threatened!"
"Damn it, are you really determined to go down with me?" the Wraith Commander coldly huffed.
"Sorry, but it's you who's going to die – my net won't break!" Ye Feng responded in a deep, cold voice, once again activating the Divine Path Heavenly Edict Scroll, gradually pulling the opponent toward the scroll. Under these circumstances, he was naturally bound to be the victor.
Of course, this was also thanks to Ye Feng having absorbed countless grievances and refined a number of wraiths after entering the Sky Burial Valley. His Mental Power Nucleus had been greatly enhanced; otherwise, it would have been impossible to sustain such a long struggle, and he definitely wouldn't have been able to contend with a Wraith Commander.
Realizing that the situation was turning dire, the Wraith Commander roared repeatedly, "You brat, since you seek to annihilate without mercy, don't blame me then! Even if I am completely extinguished, I won't make it easy for you, and it's still not certain who will be the last man standing!"
Having said that, the Wraith Commander opened its huge, human-like mouth, and in an instant, terrifying Wind Blades swept out like a violent storm, rapidly cutting through swathes of Xuanhuang colored light.
Seizing the opportunity, the Wraith Commander created some distance, continuously making its way toward the Mental Power Nucleus at the very center of the Sea of Consciousness.
If it could get close to the Mental Power Nucleus, it would find a way to corrupt it and then gradually devour and refine the spiritual power. At that point, Ye Feng would inevitably be left facing death.
Of course, Ye Feng was well aware of the current predicament, so he was also going all out to subdue this adversary!
However, at this moment, Ye Feng could clearly feel that his spiritual power couldn't keep up, and even the operation speed of the Mental Power Nucleus was gradually slowing down.
"Haha, you're just too inexperienced, your spiritual power is exhausted, isn't it? Now let's see how you're going to contend with me!" the Wraith Commander suddenly laughed triumphantly.
Ye Feng hummed, "You're right, my spiritual power is indeed almost used up, but you must be reaching your limit too, right? Moreover, let me tell you something – this is my home ground. I can replenish and repair!"
While speaking, Ye Feng's thoughts moved, and the strands of Golden Energy floating in the Sea of Consciousness surged toward the pale Gold Mental Power Nucleus.
Having just eradicated countless grievances, the amount of these strands of Golden Energy was also significant. As they continuously gathered, the Mental Power Nucleus absorbed them as thirstily as a parched man drinking greedily. Soon, the Mental Power Nucleus was spinning rapidly once more.
"This time, let's see how you will contend with me!" Ye Feng said in a deep voice, laughing coldly as the Divine Path Heavenly Edict Scroll exploded with dense Xuanhuang colored light, entwining and pulling relentlessly at the Wraith Commander. Within moments, it had closed much of the distance and seemed on the verge of being pulled entirely into the scroll.
"Dammit, this is truly accursed, you can replenish your spiritual power, while I... I don't have my wraith minions anymore, not even grievances to absorb; how utterly helpless I am!" The Wraith Commander despaired.
At this moment, it was nearly down to its last breath, completely unable to resist any longer.
"I was wrong, I truly admit my mistake, please spare me, please don't kill me. I am but a Wraith Body – if you kill me, I will truly cease to exist in this world!" the Wraith Commander begged continuously.
Yet Ye Feng remained entirely unmoved. At this stage, releasing the opponent was absolutely out of the question.
While furiously absorbing the Golden Energy, he manipulated the Divine Path Heavenly Edict Scroll, wrapping it around the Wraith Commander and pulling fiercely. It wasn't long before he had dragged the entity to the front of the scroll.
In complete despair, the Wraith Commander kept pleading, "Please spare me, I am willing to submit, willing to become your servant, please don't kill me, please don't...ah, don't..."
But before it could finish, Ye Feng unleashed his strongest strike, pulling the Wraith Commander into the Divine Path Heavenly Edict Scroll.
Only then did Ye Feng finally exhale a long breath. Now that the opponent was trapped within the scroll, it was absolutely impossible to escape, and he didn't have to worry about being attacked anymore. Otherwise, if that entity had reached his Mental Power Nucleus, the consequences would have been dire.
After entering the scroll, the Wraith Commander desperately thrashed and attempted to break out, but it was futile; it could only continue to plead for mercy.
Ye Feng couldn't help but coldly laugh and say, "Right now, you are merely a Wraith Body, having lost most of your memories from life. If you still retained the memories of your past as the great powerhouse of the Demon Horn Tribe, you might have been of some use to me. I might have spared you then, but as it stands, you will serve as nourishment for my advancement!"
As his voice fell, Ye Feng's spiritual power surged once more into the scroll. The Divine Path Heavenly Edict Scroll immediately burst forth with countless Xuanhuang colored light, shining onto the Wraith Commander.
In the blink of an eye, the Wraith Commander began to make sizzling noises as its body burned relentlessly.
After about a half quarter hour, the Wraith Commander was finally completely refined, ultimately turning into a particle the size of a peanut, emanating Golden Energy.
Besides this, there was also a grayish strip, not very long, but still floating within the scroll.
"Hmm, what is this?" Ye Feng couldn't help but become intrigued, as he had never encountered such a grayish strip after refining the other ordinary wraiths before.
After a brief contemplation, Ye Feng used his spiritual power to approach it. As soon as he touched the floating strip, it instantly transformed into a flow of water, merging into his spiritual power, and then a segment of memory inexplicably appeared in Ye Feng's consciousness.
"So it turns out, this is actually a fragment of the Wraith Commander's memory, and it's even from its past life as the peerless Great Power of the Demon Horn Tribe?" After clarifying this, Ye Feng was immediately overjoyed.
