C524 Horrifying Side Effects
The eight masked men outside maintained the barrier with pale faces. Everyone looked extremely weak. A few of the weaker ones looked like they were about to faint.
"We have to hold on. As long as we hold on until the reinforcements arrive, we can trap him here and wait for his secret technique to end!" One of the masked men gritted his teeth and shouted.
As if motivated by this masked man, the remaining seven masked men became energetic. Gritting their teeth, they tried their best to maintain the barrier. Some of them even cut open their wrists and used the energy contained in their blood to maintain the barrier.
With the energy of the blood, the cracks on top of the barrier healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Seeing the healing of the barrier, the eight masked men had the confidence to trap Mo Luo again.
"Heh, originally I only wanted to use the least amount of power to destroy this barrier, but I didn't expect that I would actually give them the idea of not being able to destroy the barrier. Truly laughable." Mo Luo said with a light laugh.
"Originally, I wasn't prepared to use such a crude method to break the barrier, but now, you ants are making me a little annoyed, so... break!"
As the last word "break" was said, a terrifying wave of air spread out with Mo Luo as the center. Countless cracks immediately appeared on the barrier that had just healed, and the speed at which it was repaired was completely unable to keep up with the speed at which the cracks appeared.
"Puff!"
The eight people who were maintaining the barrier simultaneously coughed out a mouthful of blood. After being struck by the backlash of the barrier, they did not even need Mo Luo to make another move to lose their ability to fight.
Mo Luo leapt up and arrived in front of a person. He closed his eyes and opened them. The color of his pupils returned to normal, and it was Ye Hong Tian who controlled his body.
Controlling his body once again, Ye Hong Tian instantly felt a wave of soreness coming from every part of his body. He couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
"Is Mo Luo's strength too powerful? Even my physical body couldn't take it anymore after that battle. Aiyo, it hurts so much." Ye Hongtian murmured.
He glanced at the man in front of him, who couldn't even move. He stepped on the man's heart and crushed his heart into powder.
Then he quickly killed the other seven masked men, who were still alive. He set up a few more normal formations in the palace and left.
Not long after Ye Hongtian left, dozens of masked men fell from the sky. One of them was a man in white. He was very conspicuous.
The man in white glanced around. He didn't even look at the dead bodies of the masked men and Chi Gui. He waved his hand and left with the masked men behind him.
At the moment, in Shen Yan's palace, Ye Hong Tian was lying in the hall of the palace with a tired face. There was only the sound of Ye Hong Tian's breathing in the hall.
He was going to report the situation to Shen Yan, but he didn't expect that Shen Yan wasn't in the palace. He might have gone to Cang Lan's place, or maybe he had gone to Lu Ji Feng's palace because of Lu Ji Feng.
Previously, Shen Yan had given Ye Hong Tian a method to enter the palace. Originally, Ye Hong Tian had thought that he would not be able to use it. Unexpectedly, it was actually used today.
"What kind of entrance did Elder Shen create? It's so dirty. Moreover, the entrance is so small. I almost couldn't get out." Ye Hong Tian laid on the ground and complained.
He used all his strength to sit up. Ye Hong Tian looked in the direction of the palace gate. After making sure it was safe, he lied down again and closed his eyes.
He was truly exhausted. Previously, when Lu Ji Feng had taken over his body, he had only used his body as a medium to transmit his soul power. He had never fought before.
But today, after Mo Luo had used his own body to fight, Ye Hongtian had discovered just how great the side effects of a soul replacement were. This was no different from Ye Hongtian burning his Ancient Phoenix blood essence. In fact, he was even a bit weaker.
Right now, all he wanted to do was lie down and sleep. Only then would he be able to restore his strength and spirit as quickly as possible.
However, this small wish of his was impossible to realize. Just as he was about to enter dreamland, the palace gate was struck by a massive force, causing the entire palace to violently shake.
"What the heck, is there something on me that can lock onto my position?! I can even find it in Elder Shen's palace!"
Ye Hongtian couldn't help but curse. Then, he dragged his tired body and walked into the depths of the palace. Since he could make the people of the Dark Hall look for his things, there was no way he could hide from them. He might as well find a firm place to hold on for a while.
He had visited Shen Yan's palace a long time ago. Soon, he found a room that met his requirements.
He skillfully found a secret compartment on the wall and pushed it open. A round light blue stone suddenly appeared from the door of the room and the door opened.
Ye Hong Tian didn't even look at the door when he saw the door open. He went straight into the room.
After he went in, the door slowly closed. The light blue stone turned red and disappeared into the door. After the stone disappeared, there seemed to be a layer of formation on the door, constantly flashing with a faint red light.1
In the room, Ye Hongtian had already fallen to the ground. He could not use any strength at all. He could only barely keep his eyes open to observe his surroundings.
However, Ye Hong Tian could only see flowers and plants at a glance. He could not see anything. It was as if he had fallen into a flower field.
"Let's not worry about it for now. At least there is no dangerous aura around us. Let's sleep first." Ye Hongtian thought so.
Just as he thought of this, Ye Hongtian suddenly sat up. The leg that Mo Luo used to stomp on the ground suddenly felt bloated and painful. Blood kept coming out from his pores.
Not long after, this kind of phenomenon appeared all over his body. Ye Hong Tian couldn't help but cry out in pain. He didn't know where he got the strength from, but a fist smashed towards the ground. The fist force blasted all of the surrounding flowers and plants into ashes.
Qiong Qi appeared on Ye Hongtian's head and sighed when he saw Ye Hongtian's condition. However, he didn't feel pity for Ye Hongtian. Instead, he looked at Ye Hongtian with admiration.
"The difference between you and Mo Luo is too great. He used your body to almost recover to the Divine Origin Realm. It is still too difficult for you to withstand the Divine Origin Realm with your current physical body." Qiong Qi flew to Ye Hong Tian and said.
"But don't think that your physical body is weak. Even in the Divine Martial Continent, there are very few people who can withstand a Divine Origin Realm cultivation base with a Void Origin Realm body."
Hearing Qiong Qi's words, Ye Hong Tian forced out a smile. Then, his right leg suddenly lost consciousness. Not long after that, he lost consciousness and fainted.
Seeing Ye Hongtian pass out, Qiong Qi heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Maybe it will be better if you pass out. Just sleep like this. With the Dark Fire Phoenix Supreme Skill, you should be able to recover before the Dao discussion starts."
Then, Qiong Qi looked around and scanned the surroundings. Qiong Qi's pupils shrank. Then, he took a deep look at Ye Hongtian and hid again.
