"No one can save you now!"
Ye Yunfei shouted, accelerating his charge towards the Soul Emperor.
Even though his Soul Body was suffering terrifying attacks and intense pain, and had even started to sustain injuries, Ye Yunfei disregarded it all. He wanted to seize this opportunity to eliminate the Soul Emperor.
"Brat, you think I'm afraid of you?!"
The Soul Emperor roared in fury and also sped up, charging towards Ye Yunfei.
BOOM...
The two sides finally collided.
CLANG! CLANG!
Several dozen Soul Power-type magic treasures simultaneously erupted from the Soul Emperor's body, all Emperor-level artifacts. Fully activated, they blasted towards Ye Yunfei's Soul Body.
BOOM! BOOM!
With a wave of his hand, Ye Yunfei manifested thousands of magic treasures, all activating at once. In a spectacular wave, they bombarded the Soul Emperor.
The Soldier Control Art!
Among these thousands of treasures were several dozen Emperor-level artifacts, with the rest all being Half-Emperor level.
BOOM! BOOM!
Under Ye Yunfei's control, after those Half-Emperor artifacts got close to the Soul Emperor, they directly detonated. Continuous, massive explosions erupted, releasing terrifying waves of energy that swept towards the Soul Emperor.
This was one of the applications within the Soldier Control Art—controlling magic artifacts to self-destruct, releasing devastating energy against the enemy.
The collective self-destruction of several thousand Half-Emperor artifacts unleashed a horrifying amount of energy, causing the Soul Emperor's face to drastically change.
Simultaneously, several dozen Heavenly Emperor-level artifacts also madly assailed the Soul Emperor.
Meanwhile, the dozens of Soul Power-type artifacts the Soul Emperor sent attacking Ye Yunfei were all intercepted and held off by the Soul-Nourishing Tree.
The Soul-Nourishing Tree burst forth from Ye Yunfei's soul sea, its lush branches and leaves waving, engaging the dozens of artifacts in fierce battle.
"That Soul-Nourishing Tree belongs to me!"
Seeing the Soul-Nourishing Tree, the Soul Emperor's eyes couldn't help but gleam with greed. Casting all caution aside, he charged directly towards it, aiming to seize it.
Chasing after Ye Yunfei, the primary target had always been this Soul-Nourishing Tree!
WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
Suddenly, two Soul Bodies shot out from Ye Yunfei's soul sea at a terrifying speed. Flanking him left and right, they swarmed forward, latched onto the Soul Emperor, and immediately started attacking.
Both were Ye Yunfei's Soul Bodies!
One was the Soul Body of his current life. The other was the remnant soul of the Heavenly Emperor from his past life.
Except, the Heavenly Emperor remnant soul had long ago completed most of its restoration. It was almost a complete Soul Body already!
The two Soul Bodies fought together, their thoughts connected, their minds in perfect sync, their coordination incredibly seamless.
In truth, the two Soul Bodies were originally part of the same whole; one represented Ye Yunfei's past, the other his present!
To his delight, Ye Yunfei discovered that when his two Soul Bodies fought simultaneously, the combat power they unleashed was not simply additive.
It was multiplied severalfold, even over tenfold!
"I'll help too!"
Hun Lao, knowing the Soul Emperor's power and fearing Ye Yunfei couldn't handle him alone, also rushed out. He unleashed countless branches, leaves, and roots, each imbued with formidable spatial energy, attempting to forcibly bind the Soul Emperor.
Ye Yunfei understood that his most effective means against this Soul Emperor were Mind Force. Thus, he frantically channeled his Mental Force energy, unleashing it without reservation to bombard the Soul Emperor's body.
"Die!"
Ye Yunfei's physical body also joined the fray. Fists swinging, he pummeled towards the Soul Emperor.
Using physical strength to attack a Soul Body might not be highly effective, but it still somewhat hindered the Soul Emperor's combat power!
"Brat, how do you possess two Soul Bodies?! What in the world is your origin?!"
The Soul Emperor, recognizing that both Soul Bodies belonged to Ye Yunfei, was utterly shocked.
A single living being possessing two Soul Bodies was something even he had never encountered before!
"Why do you care about my origin? Worry about yourself instead—you're dead today!"
Ye Yunfei bellowed.
"Brat, killing me isn't so easy. I'll subdue both your Soul Bodies and make them my slaves!"
The Soul Emperor roared.
SSZZT… SZZT…
Suddenly, a huge number of black ropes burst from the Soul Emperor's body, snaking towards Ye Yunfei's Soul Bodies to entangle them.
The Puppet Soul Thread Secret Art!
RUSTLE… RUSTLE…
But before these black ropes could reach Ye Yunfei's two Soul Bodies, they were intercepted by the Soul-Nourishing Tree's branches, leaves, and roots. Then, they were forcibly refined and absorbed.
The Soul-Nourishing Tree could counter this hereditary secret art of the Soul Race!
With the Soul-Nourishing Tree present, it was impossible for this Soul Emperor to use the Puppet Soul Thread Secret Art against Ye Yunfei!
Seeing his Puppet Soul Thread Secret Art countered by the Soul-Nourishing Tree, the Soul Emperor's face turned extremely ugly.
But he also knew the Soul-Nourishing Tree naturally countered some of the Soul Race's hereditary secret arts. There was nothing to be done about it.
"What are you all waiting for?! Come help me quickly!"
Under the frenzied assault of Ye Yunfei and Hun Lao, the Soul Emperor finally began to panic. He realized he was starting to falter and couldn't hold on, so he cried out loudly.
Because both the Soul Emperor and Ye Yunfei were incredibly fast, even though they had employed all sorts of attacks in a process that sounded complex, it had all happened in just an instant.
The other Heavenly Emperor experts hadn't even reacted yet!
"Let's go help!"
Hearing the Soul Emperor's plea for help, those Heavenly Emperor experts began rushing over.
"Too late!"
Ye Yunfei roared with laughter.
In the next moment, Ye Yunfei's physical body, his two Soul Bodies, the Soul-Nourishing Tree, and Hun Lao—all swarmed forward, fiercely grabbing hold of the Soul Emperor's body.
"AHHH…! Get off! Or you'll all die!"
Startled and enraged, the Soul Emperor's Soul Power energy surged endlessly from within his body as he resisted madly.
RUSTLE… RUSTLE…
The Soul-Nourishing Tree's branches, leaves, and roots transformed into green arrows. Like a torrential green downpour, they continuously attacked the Soul Emperor's body, piercing into it.
Ye Yunfei's two Soul Bodies were shaken violently by the energy released by the Soul Emperor. Excruciating pain wracked them, and cracks even began to appear on their forms.
Ye Yunfei knew if things continued like this, his two Soul Bodies would eventually shatter sooner or later!
But Ye Yunfei knew this was the best chance to eliminate this Soul Emperor. So even while clutching the Soul Emperor, his two Soul Bodies refused to let go.
"Hun Lao, let's combine our strength to teleport this guy into the Phantom Tower and get out of here. Then we can deal with him slowly."
Seeing the other Heavenly Emperors were about to arrive, Ye Yunfei quickly sent a sound transmission to Hun Lao.
"Okay!"
Hun Lao nodded.
Hun Lao was proficient in spatial energy and laws. He was quite skilled in spatial confinement, spatial severance, and spatial translocation.
Next, Ye Yunfei and Hun Lao worked together, trying to teleport this Soul Emperor into the Phantom Tower.
The Soul Emperor desperately resisted!
But in the end, Ye Yunfei and Hun Lao successfully teleported him into the Phantom Tower!
In truth, by this time the Soul Emperor was already injured!
And his injuries were more severe than Ye Yunfei's!
