Chapter 526: Chapter 525 The Spirit King’s Avatar

However, just at that moment, a beam of spiritual light flashed and descended upon the Silent Spirit Pavilion.

The Evil Vengeance Divine Pet set Ye Fan down, and he lay weakly on the ground. A flash of spiritual light formed a human silhouette—the clone of the West Spirit King. In fact, after detecting Ye Fan’s presence in the Spirit Suppressing Domain, the West Spirit King had been spying on him for quite some time. Moreover, the massive battle between Ye Fan and the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet in the Silent Spirit Pavilion had prompted his clone to immediately leave his true body, bypass the Spirit Suppressing Domain’s blockade, and travel to the pavilion. Although he was not a true god and could not execute the most refined Clone Technique, the power of this clone was still quite impressive.

"It’s you!" the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet said.

"Indeed, it is I. Evil Vengeance Divine Pet, we both serve the Divine Race. You’ve done well," the West Spirit King said with a smile.

But she retorted, "I only serve myself!"

The West Spirit King’s expression turned awkward. He then said, "Evil Vengeance Divine Pet, the Divine Race is not something you or I can defy. Hand this boy over to me. He is a nightmare for the Divine Race, and I must bring him before them!"

These two are actually treating me like a commodity to be traded! Ye Fan was furious.

But at that moment, the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet said, "And what if I refuse?"

"Evil Vengeance Divine Pet, don’t forget your place! You serve the God of Evil Grudge. If you dare to disobey his orders, he will certainly not let you off!" the West Spirit King said angrily.

In truth, in seeking to take Ye Fan, he had his own agenda: to thoroughly study the Divine Bloodline within Ye Fan and seize his Yuanhong Sword. The Evil Vengeance Divine Pet was aware of his plans.

Therefore, she said, "That is a matter between me and the God of Evil Grudge. Get out of the Silent Spirit Pavilion, and I will spare your life."

"You’re too arrogant, Evil Vengeance Divine Pet! Even though I am but a clone, I am more than enough to crush you!" the West Spirit King rebuked.

"Is that so?" 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

The Evil Vengeance Divine Pet roared and charged at the West Spirit King’s clone. Her speed was like a flash of lightning, her movements as mighty as thunder!

The West Spirit King sneered disdainfully. He unleashed his supreme Spiritual Power, and a cascade of spiritual light descended. He knew that the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet, being a ghost and not a human, feared spiritual light above all else.

However, when the spiritual light fell upon her, she merely blinked, showing no other reaction.

The West Spirit King was shocked. She’s not afraid of spiritual light? Could she have transcended from a ghost into a human?

The Evil Vengeance Divine Pet said, "Do you think I’m still the same Divine Pet I was back then?"

"AH!"

She let out a piercing scream. Instantly, the surrounding space fractured. Ye Fan scrambled to cover his ears, feeling as if his eardrums were about to burst.

The West Spirit King’s clone swayed unsteadily. Before he could react, the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet’s ghostly claw swiped down at him. The clone was immediately on the verge of dissipating.

Unwilling to accept this, he railed at her, "Evil Vengeance Divine Pet, I will report this to the Divine Race! You dare to defy their will! You will meet a terrible end!"

The West Spirit King’s clone then vanished completely. His true body might have been able to fight the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet, but this clone stood no chance against her, unable to muster even a hint of resistance.

At this moment, the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet walked toward Ye Fan. She grabbed him and said, "I’m very curious as to why even the Divine Race fears you. It seems you are not entirely worthless after all."

"Hmph!" Ye Fan snorted coldly.

Just as the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet was about to probe him further, Ye Fan took out the Divine Talisman and pressed it against her chest.

The Evil Vengeance Divine Pet immediately looked down. Her body was weakening. She had never expected that the Divine Race’s greatest taboo, the Divine Talisman, was in Ye Fan’s possession. With a sweep of her hand, she sent him flying. She had suffered a grave internal injury. She shouted at Ye Fan, "The next time we meet, I will surely kill you!"

"Do you think I’m afraid of you?" Ye Fan stood up, his voice cold. At that moment, his aura surged as though he had returned to his peak.

Ultimately, the unwilling Evil Vengeance Divine Pet transformed into a red light and vanished completely.

After the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet disappeared, Ye Fan cried out in pain and collapsed to the ground.

"OUCH!"

Right then, he was extremely weak, his face deathly pale. It couldn’t be helped; he had just been putting on a brave front. Otherwise, how could he possibly have held on for so long?

After confronting the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet, he realized that although he was seemingly just one step away from the Nirvana Realm, their true combat powers were worlds apart. Unless he could achieve a breakthrough, he had no chance of fighting a true Spirit King.

This venture into the Silent Spirit Pavilion had been a complete failure. Not only had he failed to slay the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet, but he had also let the Female Demon escape. He hadn’t achieved any substantial breakthrough himself. More humiliatingly, if he hadn’t possessed the Divine Talisman, he likely would have lost his life here.

This taught Ye Fan a valuable lesson: don’t bite off more than you can chew.

Now, his main worry wasn’t breaking through to the Nirvana Realm, but whether the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet would go out and wreak havoc on the world. If she truly ran rampant, not just he, but even all the Martial Artists from the Spirit Suppressing Domain combined would be no match for her.

With a heavy heart, he left the Silent Spirit Pavilion. The first thing he did after leaving was check for any news about the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet. Thankfully, the world was peaceful. Ye Fan breathed a small sigh of relief. From the looks of it, although the Evil Vengeance Divine Pet had successfully escaped, she had not brought disaster upon the world. His burden lightened considerably.

Meanwhile, the Spirit Suppressing Domain was facing its toughest challenge yet. The Spirit Domain’s offensive had begun far sooner than anticipated. They had expected years to prepare, but the Spirit Domain had suddenly changed its plans, placing the entire Spirit Suppressing Domain lineage under enormous pressure.

In the Spirit Suppressing Domain, Zhuang Zhou, Fa Ming, and others stood on the city walls, looking out toward the distant battlefield.

Just then, Zhuang Zhou said, "Senior Brother, this is their third attack today. Seeing how the forces of the Spirit Clan have gathered, they will likely launch one final assault at sunset!"

Fa Ming’s expression was grim. "If that were all, I wouldn’t be afraid. What I fear now is an attack after dark. We’re severely shorthanded!"

Indeed, over the past few days, the Spirit Domain had attacked relentlessly, dispatching a large number of Spirit Clan Commanders. Their side had already suffered many casualties. The Spirit Suppressing People, already at a disadvantage in terms of strength, were struggling to cope with such an onslaught.

"Let’s hope tonight isn’t a bloodbath," Fa Ming said worriedly.

But the things he feared most were the most likely to happen.

The defense of the Spirit Suppressing Domain was led by Fa Ming, Fa Xiang, and Zhuang Zhou, with each man leading a team of guardians. If the enemy attacked now, their situation would be dire.

At that moment, Zhuang Zhou said, "Senior Brother, let’s stand guard together tonight! I have a bad feeling about this."

"Alright." At this critical juncture, Fa Ming did not waste words. The more people on watch, the better.
