Boom!
A massive axe aura struck against Ye Chensheng’s magic barrier.
The giant axe seemed intangible but carried an incredibly terrifying force. Even Ye Chensheng, a thousand-segment Technique Spirit Master, felt an unprecedented threat.
“The power of the axe!”
Ye Chensheng’s face changed drastically as he stared at Chen Fei in disbelief. The magic barrier was shaken away, and the terrifying backlash sent him flying, blood spitting from his mouth.
However, Chen Fei could not rejoice, for the aura from the axe spirit faded and dimmed, falling powerless to the ground. While it was powerful and had saved his life, even helping him wound Ye Chensheng at this critical moment, it was ultimately something he couldn’t fully control.
With Ye Chensheng injured, Chen Fei knew he had to seize this opportunity to retaliate, or else both he and Su Ran were at risk of perishing. The strength of the opponent far surpassed what they had anticipated.
Su Ran had unleashed her strongest attack, but even that couldn’t break through Ye Chensheng’s Great Nether Art. The illusory Phoenix summoned by her was still trapped within the Great Nether Art and couldn’t escape, let alone injure Ye Chensheng.
“Strange!”
“How did he manage to activate the axe spirit?”
Su Ran, however, was still focused on the fallen seal on the ground. This artifact, said to have its own spirituality, certainly required sufficient power to awaken, and Chen Fei had the power to activate it despite being only a Spirit Master in the Spirit Cultivator realm. However, there was no direct connection between this and the axe spirit.
Su Ran couldn’t understand this, and her curiosity grew.
Chen Fei, however, had no time to think about this while facing the threat of Ye Chensheng. Instead, he focused entirely on the battle. Without hesitation, he shifted his energy to transform into a pure Martial Spirit Master. Behind him, a large cauldron appeared as an illusory form.
“Merge with the sword!”
The Haoying Sword radiated a silvery light as Chen Fei pushed it to its limit. The sword light moved like a shadow, accelerating to the extreme, and in an instant, it reached Ye Chensheng.
Ye Chensheng, split between restraining Su Ran’s Phoenix and defending against Chen Fei’s attack, found himself at a disadvantage. Although he had been wounded by the axe spirit earlier, the damage wasn’t substantial, as his powers as a Technique Spirit Master meant that as long as his sea of consciousness wasn’t harmed, his strength remained relatively unaffected.
“Seeking death!”
Ye Chensheng roared in rage. Having suffered repeatedly from Chen Fei’s attacks, he was now thoroughly enraged. Especially after seeing Chen Fei seemingly activating the axe spirit, he was even more wary of him.
At this moment, Ye Chensheng’s intent to kill was overwhelming. No matter what the cost, he decided to kill Chen Fei first before dealing with Su Ran.
As Chen Fei closed the distance, Ye Chensheng did not attempt to block with techniques but instead, with murderous intent, activated his ultimate soul control technique—Soul Control Art!
The Soul Control Art was an excellent tool to subdue much weaker opponents, but when used against opponents of similar strength, it was fraught with risks. A small mistake could cause the technique to backfire, causing great damage to one’s sea of consciousness.
Blinded by fury, Ye Chensheng could no longer care about the risks. His spiritual energy surged, rapidly streaming toward Chen Fei’s sea of consciousness. Chen Fei, sensing the threat of the Soul Control Art, was immediately alarmed and changed his energy state in an instant, transforming back into a pure Technique Spirit Master!
At the same time, the Haoying Sword, now without the strength to continue, lost its radiance and fell motionless to the ground. Within his sea of consciousness, Chen Fei braced himself, feeling the overwhelming spiritual force flood in like a vast ocean, threatening to engulf his entire consciousness.
This was the first time he had encountered an attack from the Soul Control Art, and with little experience in dealing with such a technique, he could only passively control the spiritual energy in his sea of consciousness, using it to clash with Ye Chensheng’s spiritual force.
When the two spiritual forces collided, Chen Fei quickly realized that his spiritual energy was far more condensed and powerful than Ye Chensheng’s. His spiritual force was roughly five times stronger than the opponent’s.
Not only that, but the Earth-level Seal he had activated emitted a radiance that seemed to form a domain, further suppressing Ye Chensheng’s spiritual energy while strengthening his own.
Under these circumstances, although Ye Chensheng’s spiritual force appeared vast like an ocean, Chen Fei’s spiritual energy, like a sharp sword, cut through it with ease!
When Ye Chensheng sensed that something was wrong, it was already too late.
“Earth Seal!”
“He’s already half a Spirit Master!”
Ye Chensheng couldn’t believe his own senses. As a thousand-segment Technique Spirit Master, he had never comprehended the Earth Seal, yet this mere few-segment Technique Spirit Master had already grasped it?
“He must be an old monster!” Ye Chensheng thought in shock, his heart filled with terror. He had no choice but to retreat from Chen Fei’s sea of consciousness and end the Soul Control Art.
However, the speed of spiritual attacks was incredibly fast. Although their contact was brief, Ye Chensheng had already suffered unprecedented damage. By the time he withdrew his spiritual energy, his sea of consciousness was badly damaged, and his spiritual power had decreased drastically, leaving his Technique Spirit Master abilities at barely eight segments.
Although this damage was not immediately visible in his body, it was reflected in his weakened aura. His Great Nether Art, which had previously suppressed Su Ran, also lost much of its power due to the injury to his spiritual force.
In just a moment, the Great Nether Art was broken free by Su Ran’s Phoenix.
Su Ran also sensed Ye Chensheng’s weakened state and quickly seized the opportunity. She urged the Phoenix to pursue him.
Chen Fei, having successfully repelled Ye Chensheng’s Soul Control Art, was overjoyed. Despite his cultivation being lower than Ye Chensheng’s, his stronger spiritual energy and Earth Seal allowed him to challenge the opponent head-on.
Having suffered from the Soul Control Art, Ye Chensheng had now been significantly weakened. Without hesitation, Chen Fei also activated his Earth Spirit Technique to trap Ye Chensheng, leaving him no chance to escape.
The yellowish light from the Earth Spirit Technique enveloped Ye Chensheng, leaving him no room to flee. At the same time, Su Ran’s Phoenix was closing in, ready to strike down on him.
