The UFO Demon Point was bound by a dense net, and under Xu Yi’s control, the blood-colored net continuously tightened, compressing the body of the UFO Demon Point.
The UFO Demon Point tried to break free, but it was futile.
As time elapsed, Xu Yi’s face had detached from the UFO Demon Point, suspended in the Furnace; his eyes grew increasingly brighter.
A bead resembling a green gemstone appeared at the center of the Soul Binding Line, shining with a crystal-clear luster, the UFO Demon Point had been suppressed into a Soul Jade.
Yet, the Soul Binding Line did not loosen; it kept tightening.
The Soul Jade was exceptionally sturdy, and Xu Yi, who was controlling the Soul Binding Line, felt a considerable amount of effort was required.
Right at that moment, the chain binding the UFO Demon Point’s Origin turned a glowing red, as if it had been scooped out of magma.
The entire Furnace shook thunderously, sensing the tenacity of the UFO Demon Point, it activated a hidden mode, and the temperature escalated by a whole dimension.
Xu Yi also felt the pressure, his incarnate face was significantly dissolved, but still, relying on his tenacious soul Origin, he managed to bear it.
The rapidly operating Furnace, the glowing red Holy Artifact chains, the continuously tightening Soul Binding Line... under the intense pressure constructed by the three forces, a crack appeared on the Soul Jade, spreading continuously.
Xu Yi suddenly got excited because within the cracks of the Soul Jade, he saw a black-purple light.
That light gave off an immeasurably profound and suffocating sensation.
Dark Force! There was no doubt, the black-purple light before his eyes was the Dark Force!
In fact, before taking action, Xu Yi hadn’t held much hope, but to his surprise, he had actually succeeded.
A crisp cracking sound suddenly echoed, the Soul Jade totally shattered, and those fragments, just as they sprayed out, were incinerated by the high temperature, leaving only a piece of Dark Force the size of a fingernail suspended in mid-air.
The power of the UFO Demon Point was limited, the Dark Force extracted was only a tiny bit.
Suddenly, a strong suction force erupted from the bottom of the Furnace.
The equipment detected the powerful energy, preparing to suck it away, to be transported to the underneath of the production line.
Xu Yi had painstakingly "squeezed" out that wisp of Dark Force. If it were to be absorbed by the Furnace, he feared he might be so frustrated as to vomit blood.
Fortunately, he had made preparations in advance. Guarding beside the Soul Jade, the moment it shattered, he lunged forward and swallowed the Dark Force in one gulp.
Upon ingesting the Dark Force, a terrifying high temperature washed over him, and Xu Yi’s face twisted in pain. The sensation was akin to a common person swallowing a glowing coal ball.
But the next second, the heat dissipated, replaced by extreme cold, and his face almost froze solid.
The Dark Force transitioned between extreme heat and extreme cold; this contradictory sensation of "fire and ice" was enough to drive someone insane.
But that wasn’t the worst part. As the temperature changed, the Dark Force twinkled uncertainly between the red and blue lights.
Xu Yi could feel the extremely unstable energy above him; the current Dark Force was like a time bomb, ready to explode at any moment.
"Dark Force not extracted through proper methods is indeed unreliable!"
Xu Yi knew he had to act quickly. Once the Dark Force detonated, they would be the first to suffer.
His face started to distort, changing into threads, seeking to escape through the exhaust vent of the Furnace.
After all, the Furnace was an automated machine, not as intelligent as humans, operating only according to preset programs.
Without any unexpected incidents, Xu Yi safely escaped from the Furnace.
"Success or failure hinges on this one action!" Xu Yi stared at the body before him, silently rallying himself.
Because he was unclear about what would happen next. Enjoy new chapters from freewebnovel
The Soul Split, carrying the Dark Force, hurtled toward his body.
It was like a droplet of water falling into the vast sea, the Soul Split merged with the body without any hindrance.
A brutal chill engulfed him, freezing his soul like it was stiff, yet because he had endured the destruction of Dark Force before, he found it tolerable somehow.
But he was well aware that this was only temporary.
Updated from freewёbnoνel.com.
If the Soul Split stayed in the body for too long, it would certainly be completely frozen, then annihilated; being reborn was not such a simple affair.
Xu Yi’s soul suddenly quaked violently, as he felt an indescribably profound sensation, which, in the language of Xia Kingdom, would be called "Unity of Heaven and Man."
The fingernail-sized, sporadic Dark Force, the Soul Split equivalent to a low-version souled realm, the body but a Body of Demigod... Each element fell short of reaching otherworldly deity standards, but for some inexplicable reason, they were oddly compatible.
The three forces began to merge, and Xu Yi, caught in the state of "Unity of Heaven and Man," let out an agonizing scream.
He felt utterly terrible, as if on a bitterly cold night, he was sleeping cozy and warm in his bed, but the next second, someone stripped him naked and threw him into a freezing lake.
Yet this degree of pain was just the beginning, the suffering intensified ceaselessly, far surpassing what he had experienced during the Divine Transition.
This was pain no living creature was meant to bear!
A face suddenly appeared on Xu Yi’s body, a visage so distorted by pain it was beyond recognition, that face suddenly peeled away, and Xu Yi within the body let out a long sigh of relief.
"Thank you, Oss!" Xu Yi praised inwardly.
Oss was the Dream Lord governing pain; Xu Yi had inherited the ability to transform pain from Oss, and this was what allowed him to endure.
The Black Hound suddenly halted its assault, coldly watching the Ghost Samurai.
This was not a good sign, for the longer it failed to break through the Ghost Samurai’s blockade, the more thoroughly enraged it became.
Its entire body split open, tendrils bursting forth, madly flailing in the air, while terrifying arcs of lightning blazed like a blue sun.
The Black Hound had fully unleashed itself, transforming into its most primal, and strongest form.
The "blue sun" surged towards the Ghost Samurai, but even with the Ghost Samurai and Annabelle combined, they were no match for the fully unleashed Black Hound.
As the horrifying electric storm swept through, suddenly, the "blue sun" came to a standstill in mid-air, unable to advance any further.
Even those wildly dancing tendrils froze as if space itself solidified, with the Black Hound appearing like an insect encased in amber.
Suspended in the air, Xu Yi’s body suddenly opened its eyes, out of nowhere.
His pupils were no longer the black of before, nor the platinum of "Blood as Sacred," but a blackish-purple, with exquisite patterns faintly visible in the depths of the pupils.
Those eyes were profound and mysterious, filled with supreme authority, as if all beings of the world were mere ants before him.
Dark Force, souled realm, Body of Demigod... the three powers had finally merged within him.
"So this is what it feels like to be a god!" Xu Yi remarked in a drawn-out sigh.
He was utterly immersed in the sensation of tremendous power; the Black Hound that he had felt was unbeatable now seemed like it could be extinguished with a mere flick of his hand.
He had made the Black Hound freeze in mid-air with just the residual power of a god, without even making a move.
But suddenly his brow furrowed; he sensed something was amiss.
