Chapter 2618: Chapter 2619: Frenzied Self-Torture
The world finally fell silent!
During this time, Ye Luo stood in the air, emotionless, lost in thought.
As for the cultivators around him, they didn’t dare to even breathe loudly, looking at Ye Luo with fear in their eyes. At this moment, Ye Luo was truly deserving of the title of King.
"Those inheritors... have all perished!"
The expressions on many cultivators’ faces turned bitter.
Sieged by five Martial Kings, except for the missing Kunshan Clan Leader, the other four had all perished!
Just how abnormal is this Ye Luo...
Many cultivators began to quietly leave. Now, Ye Luo was not someone any tribe dared to provoke unless a Totem appeared. Otherwise, provoking Ye Luo meant a dead end.
"Ye Luo!"
Princess Xiu and the others finally flew up, surrounding Ye Luo with excitement.
However, Ye Luo’s face showed a trace of paleness, and he nodded slightly to the group.
"Ye Luo, let’s go to the hall and rest for a while!"
Princess Xiu quickly understood, fearing that Ye Luo’s injuries were not as minor as they appeared.
Ignoring the crowd, Ye Luo directly entered the hall, and as soon as he stepped inside, his body began to crack.
A massive amount of black gas emanated from his body, along with flashes of golden light!
Evidently, these two attributes of power were battling once again.
Ye Luo gritted his teeth and began to operate the Tai Chi Diagram, but the power was too immense to harmonize!
"Let’s all step outside. Being here would only distract him!" Princess Xiu sighed.
They naturally noticed that Ye Luo’s injuries were extremely severe, even bizarre, but they could do nothing to help.
In such a case, they could only step outside to protect him.
However, Ye Luo was in utter misery. If these two powers continued to battle, he would eventually be tortured to death!
Suddenly, he opened his eyes, which were filled with a blood-red hue.
He remembered a saying, there’s no such thing as a free lunch!
The power of the Golden Body was sharp, and the strength of the Demon Body was exceptionally formidable. Why had these two powerful forces been given to him for no cost?
Or rather, why had such a fortunate occurrence happened to him?
There must be a hidden truth in this, possibly even a conspiracy. He was enjoying the fruits of this power now, but he would certainly have to pay a price!
This pain was, after all, brought by these two forces!
If that’s the case, then wouldn’t it be better not to have these powers at all!
Of course, these powers were beyond his control now, and he couldn’t discard them even if he wanted to.
Therefore, if he wished to break free from the shackles of these two forces, it was not merely a matter of suppression but transformation!
Transforming these two powers into his own strength.
Thinking of this, Ye Luo’s heart strengthened. Regardless of any conspiracy, one’s own strength is paramount!
Great Saint Physique!
Ye Luo ignored the two battling powers, instead activating the Great Saint Physique.
This cultivation technique had been continually refined as Ye Luo’s realm advanced, becoming a rare technique among body-refining techniques.
However, compared to the Golden Body and Demon Body, it was still inferior.
The advantage of the Great Saint Physique, though, lay in its ability to absorb different attributes of power, a feat the other two techniques couldn’t achieve!
In essence, this technique was indiscriminate, capable of absorbing any power to use self-tormentingly!
Moreover, the premise of the Great Saint Physique differed from that of the other two techniques; this self-destructive technique was likely rarely created by others.
Bang!
With a muffled explosion, Ye Luo’s physical body cracked open, flesh split.
His body, originally incredibly resilient, didn’t mean he was immune to pain. Quite the opposite, when his body was harmed, the pain was magnified several times due to his enhanced Divine Soul sensitivity!
His immensely powerful Divine Soul rendered him more sensitive to body sensations, making the pain feel as if his soul might leap out of his body.
In normal times, a soul leaving the body wouldn’t be a major issue, but in his body’s critically weakened state, if his soul left, it would struggle to reconcile upon return, much like body snatching. Though not as severe, it would hinder future cultivation of both body and Divine Soul.
Therefore, he could only endure!
Furthermore, activating the Great Saint Physique intensified the two powers’ ferocity.
The Great Saint Physique was essentially a self-destructive technique, as opposed to the Tai Chi Diagram that harmonized the energies. Instead, it deliberately aggravated them, causing maximum damage to his body!
Because of this, his body suffered increasingly severe damage, eventually hanging by threads of sinew to bones.
The whole process was excruciating, and Ye Luo endured fiercely. He knew now was not the time for laxity, as not only his body but his soul would disintegrate if he did!
He wasn’t sure if using the self-destructive Great Saint Physique was the right choice. He could only run the technique to slowly repair his body.
Meanwhile, the two powers continued circulating within him, guided by the Tai Chi Diagram.
Otherwise, his body would’ve exploded by now.
After all, the true forms of the Demonic Queen and Queen were immensely powerful; even a trace of their power was unbearable for Ye Luo.
The Queen and Demonic Queen, one a Demon Race prodigy and the other a Buddhist Sect genius, manifested mainly through avatars, so even the Kunshan Tribe’s Clan Leader didn’t know the Queen’s true strength. Unaware that only her incarnation had traversed the Space-Time Channel back then, he dared to covet her.
After this upheaval, almost no tribe dared to provoke Qingxiu Peak. Ye Luo’s battle had intimidated all tribes; without the Totem, none could rival him.
Ye Luo’s closed cultivation lasted a month!
Throughout this month, Princess Xiu and the others guarded nervously outside his Cave Mansion, neither daring to intrude nor to leave, fearing the Kunshan Clan Leader might attack while he was cultivating.
That was indeed the case. For a month, Ye Luo focused on tempering his body, vulnerable enough for any ordinary disciple to kill him.
"Alas, we don’t know how Ye Luo is doing; it’s been a month!" Qiong Yao sighed worriedly.
The looks on Princess Xiu and the Ice Princess’s faces were anxious as well. Just then, with a creak, the Cave Mansion door suddenly opened, and a figure emerged.
