Chapter 58

Zhan Yi wanted to escape, but when he tried to rush in all directions, he found it was like hitting a copper wall and iron wall; his body was quickly bounced back. This made Zhan Yi feel anxious, but he also realized the huge gap between him and Gong Wai Yunsheng.

At this moment, Gong Wai Yunsheng was even more delighted: "Ha ha, Zhan Yi, I don't think you have anywhere to run this time. Receive my Yin-Yang Forbidden Spell's Essence Seizure!" As he shouted, Gong Wai Yunsheng's entire spirit burst with a strong black light, then pounced on Zhan Yi like a flash of lightning.

Zhan Yi tried to dodge by twisting his body, but the speed was too fast for him to avoid. Gong Wai Yunsheng's spirit directly drilled into his body. He felt a strong surge of energy, as if his physical body was about to be torn apart.

Zhan Yi gritted his teeth tightly, knowing that this was due to the excessive energy of the spirit exceeding his capacity. In a flash, he suddenly thought of a glimmer of hope: to use his ability to absorb Gong Wai Yunsheng's soul energy and then control his body's energy.

With this thought, he ignored the pain in his body, focused his mind, and activated the ability of the Yin-Yang Five Elements Soul Refining Furnace in his brain. A mysterious vortex appeared in his mind, emitting a powerful golden light.

Gong Wai Yunsheng had already successfully taken over the body, but when he felt the abnormality in Zhan Yi's body, he was instantly frightened. He did not expect Zhan Yi's body to have such special energy. The golden light illuminated his spirit, and the vortex generated a tremendous pulling force, as if it were about to tear his spirit into pieces instantly.

This discovery made Gong Wai Yunsheng's soul scream in pain: "Zhan Yi, who are you?"

In the sea of consciousness, Zhan Yi looked at Gong Wai Yunsheng's soul and smiled: "Hehe, Gong Wai Yunsheng, do you think you can just take over a body? I'll tell you, today is not my end, but yours."

With that, Zhan Yi suddenly pushed his ability to the limit. In his mind, the mysterious vortex emitted an increasingly intense golden light, eventually enveloping Gong Wai Yunsheng's entire spirit.

Then Gong Wai Yunsheng felt his soul energy being continuously sucked away by the vortex, and the body energy contained in his spirit began to be continuously absorbed into Zhan Yi's meridians.

Zhengye Aitong, standing not far away, was stunned. She didn't know what was happening. She didn't want Zhan Yi to die, but she also didn't want Gong Wai Yunsheng to die. Seeing Zhan Yi's body convulse, she finally cried out in pain: "Stop, don't fight anymore. Mr. Gong, I am willing to offer my body to you."

But Gong Wai Yunsheng couldn't hear her anymore. Zhan Yi's ability came from the ancient treasure, the Yin-Yang Five Elements Soul Refining Furnace. Even the soul of the ancient beast Nu Lin couldn't resist it, let alone Gong Wai Yunsheng's mere spirit. So, at this moment, most of his soul energy had already been sucked into the mysterious vortex.

However, Gong Wai Yunsheng was different from ordinary cultivators. His spirit not only contained his soul energy but also his other body energies. As his soul energy continued to drain, his other body energies also began to slowly merge into Zhan Yi's meridians.

But Zhan Yi wasn't doing much better. Although he had absorbed Gong Wai Yunsheng's soul energy, his body couldn't handle the massive body energy of Gong Wai Yunsheng. His body was almost bursting, and blood flowed from his seven shells.

Zhan Yi knew he had to persevere. His soul energy was stronger than anyone else's. As long as he could absorb all of Gong Wai Yunsheng's soul energy and use it to control the body energy, his strength would reach a new level. Although it was dangerous, he had no choice.

After about twenty minutes of struggle, Gong Wai Yunsheng's soul energy finally collapsed, and his memories turned into the last burst of energy, which was sucked into the mysterious vortex.

Zhan Yi was still fighting against the pain of his body about to burst. But after obtaining Gong Wai Yunsheng's memories, he learned that Gong Wai Yunsheng had not reached the spirit stage. He used a dark technique called the Yin-Yang Soul Devouring Forbidden Spell, which could temporarily elevate his realm to the spirit stage, but it wouldn't last long, and his body would be damaged afterward.

Zhan Yi found the cause and the solution: to infuse the powerful soul energy into his meridians and mix it with the other energies in his body, achieving a complete fusion of soul energy and body energy.

Only in this way could his soul control the powerful energy. However, there was a great risk: his soul energy would eventually return to the sea of consciousness, but soul energy and body energy were different things. The sea of consciousness was an illusory existence, so he had to purify and decompose the mixed energy before it entered the sea of consciousness. This was something he had never tried before.

He didn't know if he could do it, but he had no choice. He knew that if the energy continued to build up in his body, it would destroy his body and burst his meridians.

So, with a final determination, he decided to take a risk. He pushed the ability of the Soul Refining Furnace to the limit, and the massive soul energy began to mix with the other energies in his body. Gradually, the mixed energy increased, and Zhan Yi felt the pressure in his meridians lessen. The mysterious vortex in his mind began to recycle the mixed energy.

Zhan Yi knew he had made the right decision. He felt the mysterious vortex slowly purify the mixed energy and then transmit it to his body. This time, he didn't feel the pain in his body. After a long time, all the energy was transformed.

Zhan Yi finally opened his eyes, a wicked smile appearing on his lips. He felt his strength had broken through again. He turned to look around and saw the forbidden spell that Gong Wai Yunsheng had released still in effect, and many people were gathered outside.

Zhan Yi had absorbed all of Gong Wai Yunsheng's energy and memories, so breaking the forbidden spell was easy. However, after assessing the situation, he didn't do it. Instead, he shouted: "There's a monster! Everyone, run!"

The people around him were terrified. They had only seen black fog and didn't know what was happening inside. Hearing about a monster, they all ran away. Zhan Yi, seeing their actions, quickly broke the forbidden spell and ran with the crowd, soon leaving the hotel.

Seeing that there was nothing unusual around, he finally smiled wickedly: "Hehe... This time, it was really damn satisfying. I didn't expect to break through again in such a desperate situation."

It's no wonder Zhan Yi was so happy. This time, he not only absorbed soul energy but also Gong Wai Yunsheng's massive body energy. For him, this was like a long-awaited rain after a drought. In the past, Zhan Yi had particularly strong soul energy, but his body energy was pitifully weak, which is why he was always at a disadvantage when facing experts.

But now, it was different. He had obtained all of Gong Wai Yunsheng's energy, significantly enhancing his strength. However, there was one thing that bothered him: he still couldn't release energy externally. Although he tried various techniques with the absorbed energy, he couldn't release it.

After some research, he found that the energy in his body had been filtered by the ability of the Soul Refining Furnace, and this energy was not compatible with those techniques. This made Zhan Yi feel somewhat disappointed, as not being able to release energy externally greatly limited his strength.
