Chapter 2188: That's Right, I'm Playing You

When he said this, Li Yue's voice was almost choked with tears.

His greatest reliance was the Ten Directions Spirit-Sealing Umbrella!

Under such circumstances, it could skyrocket his strength.

But who would have thought that Ye Yuan's ultimate trump card was not the Golden Needle Acupuncture, nor the Heavenly Dao True Words, but the Law of Space!

Ye Yuan certainly couldn't beat him, but Ye Yuan didn't need to fight him at all.

As long as Ye Yuan ran out the clock, he could only wait to be slaughtered.

That was formidable!

"Law of Space at the sixth level... Brother Ye's strength is truly beyond belief!"

"How can someone so young be such a prodigy? Did this guy start cultivating in the womb?"

"Heh, Li Yue calculated everything but this. Today, he's really hit a snag."

...

Ye Yuan looked at Li Yue and said calmly, "Spare you? It's not impossible."

Seeing this, the crowd nodded to themselves.

This was only to be expected. Li Yue held a high position in the Qingluo Dojo, otherwise, they wouldn't have bestowed the Ten Directions Spirit-Sealing Umbrella upon him.

Ye Yuan, fearing the power behind him, sparing his life was only right.

Otherwise, once outside, Ye Yuan would face endless trouble.

Li Yue's eyes flickered, and he said joyfully, "As long as Brother Ye shows mercy, Li Yue is willing to pay any price!"

Ye Yuan pointed a finger in the air, indicating the Ten Directions Spirit-Sealing Umbrella, and said, "I want it."

Li Yue's expression changed, and he said with a grim face, "This... the Ten Directions Spirit-Sealing Umbrella is a heavy treasure of my Qingluo Dojo and cannot be easily given to others. If I hand it over to Brother Ye, I will be severely punished upon returning!"

Ye Yuan chuckled lightly, "If you don't hand it over, you'll be severely punished right now."

Li Yue was silent for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, I'll give it!"

His hatred for Ye Yuan had reached the heavens.

But circumstances were stronger than him; he had to bow his head now.

Li Yue secretly swore that once he got out, he would ask his elders to act and destroy this damned brat.

Without further hesitation, Li Yue retrieved the Ten Directions Spirit-Sealing Umbrella, erased his own soul imprint, and thus gave this quasi-emperor level celestial venerable treasure to Ye Yuan.

After doing all this, the time limit for the Golden Needle Acupuncture finally arrived.

The celestial venerables present wailed in misery, all completely exhausted.

But being able to keep their lives was already good; this pain naturally counted for nothing.

Moreover, everyone discovered that Ye Yuan's technique with the Golden Needle Acupuncture was extremely skillful; it only left them exhausted, with no damage to their bodies or cultivation.

Thus, everyone was extremely grateful to Ye Yuan.

Ye Yuan put away the Ten Directions Spirit-Sealing Umbrella, came before Li Yue, and said calmly, "The time has come. I can send you on your way."

Li Yue's expression changed drastically, and he said in shock and anger, "You... you're playing me?"

Ye Yuan admitted frankly, "That's right, I'm playing you. Asking for the Ten Directions Spirit-Sealing Umbrella was just to buy time. Did you think that without you, I couldn't erase your soul imprint?"

Since absorbing a large amount of the Sea of Laws, the Soul-Calming Pearl had fully advanced and become an emperor-level treasure.

With the current power of the Soul-Calming Pearl, erasing Li Yue's soul imprint was a piece of cake.

The reason he had been dealing with him hypocritically was only to prevent him from desperate retaliation.

Li Yue was extremely humiliated and furious, roaring, "You... if you dare kill me, the Qingluo Dojo will not let you off!"

Ye Yuan said calmly, "So what? You've been sneering and provoking me all along, and I couldn't be bothered to care. But the moment you tried to kill the Abyssal Beast leader, your death warrant was signed!"

Ye Yuan was not a vengeful person, but if Li Yue had killed that beast leader, it would have cut off all hope of finding Li'er.

That, he could not tolerate!

Li'er's fate was unknown, and Ye Yuan was already heavy-hearted.

Li Yue had provoked him repeatedly, and he had originally ignored it.

But in the end, he had repaid kindness with enmity by killing the beast leader.

After all, Ye Yuan was the savior of their group!

Li Yue was both shocked and furious, but now he was like a fish on a chopping block, with no strength left to resist Ye Yuan.

At this moment, Li Yue's divine essence was exhausted, and he had no extra power to protect his body.

A cold gleam flashed, and Li Yue perished, his Dao extinguished!

Everyone watched this scene in shock, amazed at Ye Yuan's ruthlessness and decisiveness.

A sixth-level celestial venerable, a future emperor of the Qingluo Dojo, was thus obliterated by Ye Yuan.

The celestial venerables from the Qingluo Dojo were all silent as cicadas in winter, afraid that Ye Yuan would take his anger out on them.

But unexpectedly, Ye Yuan turned and walked toward the Abyssal Beast leader.

The beast leader looked at Ye Yuan, his eyes full of terror.

This human brat was too strange!

Ye Yuan was clearly different from other humans; he knew where the Abyssal Beast's weakness lay.

With his Black Jade Demon Crystal sealed, even if his strength was immense, he was now useless.

"Human brat, give up! I won't tell you what you want to know! A great Abyssal Beast will never yield to a human!" the beast leader sneered at Ye Yuan.

"Is that so?"

Ye Yuan suddenly reached out and grabbed the Black Jade Demon Crystal.

The Chaos Heavenly Scripture began to operate silently, absorbing the power of the Black Jade Demon Crystal.

The beast leader's whole body trembled as he looked at Ye Yuan in disbelief.

This human was actually absorbing the power of the Black Jade Demon Crystal!

He could actually absorb the power of the Black Jade Demon Crystal!

He only felt his power being drained away bit by bit.

Ye Yuan did not absorb the Black Jade Demon Crystal quickly; in this way, the beast leader's fear would gradually amplify.

"Don't worry, I won't devour all your power. When your strength returns to the True God realm, I'll unseal you and let you go back. I think your companions would be very happy to see you then," Ye Yuan said calmly.

The beast leader's body trembled again, his eyes full of terror.

"You... you are a demon!" the beast leader shrieked.

Ye Yuan had lived in the Dragon Eye Cave for over ten years and killed countless Abyssal Beasts; how could he not know their habits?

The world of Abyssal Beasts was hundreds, thousands of times more brutal than the human world!

The rise of a sixth-level celestial venerable beast leader was accompanied by countless battles and suppressions.

When his companions saw his strength drop to the True God realm, his fate would be extremely miserable.

Ye Yuan ignored the beast leader and silently absorbed the power from the Black Jade Demon Crystal.

True pain is not dying instantly.

It is the process of silently waiting for death!

Fear spread little by little through the beast leader's body.

The other celestial venerables watched Ye Yuan in silence, their eyes full of horror.

They could feel the beast leader's aura gradually diminishing, while Ye Yuan's aura grew stronger little by little.

Ye Yuan was actually absorbing the beast leader's strength to enhance his own!

What kind of freak was this guy!

Finally, the beast leader could no longer bear this despair and broke down.

"I... I'll talk! I'll talk! Please, stop absorbing!"
