The Reincarnation Ghost’s movements appeared incredibly slow, but in reality, they were lightning fast. In the short moment it took for a thought to flash through Ye Yunfei’s mind, the creature was already right in front of him. Its yin, cold, and bizarre aura became far more terrifying, instantly sealing the surrounding space completely, as if the entire world had plunged into a cold, sinister strangeness. Ye Yunfei even felt his breathing grow difficult.
Considering Ye Yunfei’s current strength, to have such a feeling showed just how dreadful this Reincarnation Ghost was.
“This thing is truly horrifying. Despite our power, we still can’t resist the invasion of its bizarre aura,” Hun Lao couldn’t help but sigh.
“We need to think of a way to escape, quick. Being targeted by this thing has unthinkable consequences,” the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm complained anxiously.
“Hehe…”
The twisting, unstable shadow emitted a cold laugh that struck directly at the soul.
“That lad is done for,” some people in the distance remarked, seeing the Reincarnation Ghost was about to descend upon Ye Yunfei’s body.
“Such strength at such a young age, he should have been a prominent young talent of the Sixth Void. Who would have thought he’d perish here,” others sighed.
“What does being a talent matter? A talent that doesn’t mature isn’t a true talent. A true talent relies not only on strength but also on luck,” many others gloated with schadenfreude.
By this point, the shadow had drifted right before Ye Yunfei’s head, seemingly intent on entering his soul sea.
“All together, a desperate strike!”
Ye Yunfei sent the transmission to Hun Lao and the others, deciding to gamble everything on one last-ditch effort.
Although the Reincarnation Ghost’s aura had already sealed Ye Yunfei’s physical body and Soul Body, he believed that with a life-or-death struggle, he could barely break through this seal.
Just as Ye Yunfei, Hun Lao, and the others prepared for their desperate strike, the Reincarnation Ghost’s movements suddenly halted. The Mental Force energy Ye Yunfei was employing clearly sensed a trace of trepidation emanating from the ghost.
“What is it afraid of?” Ye Yunfei couldn’t help but wonder inwardly.
“Could it be because I possess something that makes it wary?”
Possessing two Soul Bodies and over fifty soul power stars, Ye Yunfei’s thoughts were extremely agile, his perception terrifying. He instantly thought of this possibility.
“What on me could make this Reincarnation Ghost fearful?” His mind raced through the possibilities.
In the next moment, Ye Yunfei felt a treasure on his person begin to tremble and hum.
“This is a treasure of the Reincarnation Palace,” he immediately identified the object as a gift from an Elder of the former Reincarnation Palace. Of course, by Ye Yunfei’s current standards, this treasure’s rank was quite low.
“The Reincarnation Palace token is also trembling slightly.”
Suddenly, Ye Yunfei felt a token on his person also vibrating lightly.
“Could it be…?” Ye Yunfei thought of a possibility. In the next instant, he retrieved both the Reincarnation Palace treasure and the Reincarnation Palace token, simultaneously activating them. They erupted with billowing Reincarnation Energy and Reincarnation Law.
Sure enough, the Reincarnation Ghost seemed startled, instantly retreating a significant distance.
“I still have several other reincarnation-related treasures on me.”
With a wave of his hand, Ye Yunfei took out four or five more treasures gifted to him by the Reincarnation Palace in the past, and activated all of them.
With a resonant hum, Ye Yunfei watched in pleasant surprise as the Reincarnation Palace token transformed into a stream of light, shooting towards the Reincarnation Ghost at incredible speed.
Sensing the token’s provocation, the Reincarnation Ghost released a sharp screech. Then, from within the twisting shadow, a pair of sharp claws extended, forcefully colliding with the Reincarnation Palace token.
Clang!
A terrifyingly loud boom reverberated throughout the Small World, like a giant god striking a bell. It left everyone feeling dizzy and lightheaded, the world spinning.
“Who would have thought? The Reincarnation Palace treasures and token seem to have a restrictive effect on this creature,” Hun Lao said, overjoyed.
“Exactly. What a twist of fate. It seems we won’t die here after all,” the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm also cheered in delight.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
At that moment, the several Reincarnation Palace treasures simultaneously shot forward, actually beginning to besiege the Reincarnation Ghost.
Although the Reincarnation Ghost showed wariness towards these Reincarnation Palace treasures, in its anger, it actually fought back against the token and the treasures.
“Didn’t you cultivate Reincarnation Energy before? Why don’t you use that energy to control those treasures and that token, enhancing their offensive power?” Hun Lao suddenly suggested to Ye Yunfei.
“True, I did cultivate Reincarnation Energy and Reincarnation Law in the past,” Ye Yunfei replied, his eyes lighting up at the reminder.
“Master, it looks like we’ve found a way to deal with this Reincarnation Ghost. This is wonderful!” Hu Miao exclaimed excitedly.
Ye Yunfei immediately employed Reincarnation Energy and Reincarnation Law, manipulating the token and the several treasures to continuously attack the Reincarnation Ghost.
Although Ye Yunfei hadn’t spent much time cultivating Reincarnation Energy and Reincarnation Law, with his aptitude, what he had cultivated was far stronger than that of the Elders from the Reincarnation Palace of the former Eighth Void.
Driven by Ye Yunfei’s power, the token and the treasures erupted with even more dazzling divine radiance, unleashing formidable offensive force that actually pushed the Reincarnation Ghost into a state of utter disarray.
In truth, by Ye Yunfei’s current standards, these Reincarnation Palace treasures were of a very low rank. Yet, against this Reincarnation Ghost, they possessed an unbelievably specific, special effect.
“I have a feeling the token plays the biggest role. Look, during the attacks, those treasures seem to revolve around the token as a center, only providing supporting fire. It seems the thing truly capable of suppressing this ghost is the token of the Reincarnation Palace,” Hun Lao remarked to Ye Yunfei.
“Hun Lao, you make sense. That token’s offensive effect is indeed the greatest. That token is one of the highest-ranking tokens within the Reincarnation Palace. When Sister Qing Luo gave it to me, she mentioned it might be an ancient artifact passed down within the Reincarnation Palace, with exceptionally strong long-distance communication capabilities. She gifted it to me for ease of contact. Who would have thought it would save me in this crisis,” Ye Yunfei nodded in agreement.
“What’s going on? That kid is actually fighting that Reincarnation Ghost using just a token and a few low-level treasures, and it seems they’re fighting on equal footing? Do those treasures have some special quality?”
At this moment, there were still some people watching from afar. They had initially thought Ye Yunfei’s Soul Body would be directly devoured by the Reincarnation Ghost, but unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, he had used a few treasures to battle the ghost. Moreover, it looked like the Reincarnation Ghost was being forced to retreat constantly, appearing quite disheveled.
“How is that possible? Is the lad really that formidable?”
Seeing this, few believed their eyes. Previously, this Reincarnation Ghost had been utterly terrifying in everyone’s minds, something everyone fled from in fear. Now it was actually being pushed back by a young man.
“That Reincarnation Ghost seems to be transmitting a kind of will,” Ye Yunfei’s heart stirred at this moment. While using the token and the Reincarnation Palace treasures against the ghost, Ye Yunfei was also employing his Mental Force martial skills to assist in the attack. Now, his Mental Force energy suddenly sensed the ghost transmitting an intense will.
“Dammit! This is an artifact of those old fellows from the Reincarnation Sect. Why does it appear here?”
Upon careful perception, Ye Yunfei finally used his Reincarnation Energy to discern the will transmitted by the Reincarnation Ghost.
“Reincarnation Sect... Artifact... Does this mean the Reincarnation Palace was known as the Reincarnation Sect in ancient times? This token Sister Qing Luo gave me seems to be the personal artifact of some ancient expert of the Reincarnation Sect. And this Reincarnation Ghost recognizes those ancient experts of the sect, hence its intense wariness.”
Ye Yunfei secretly concluded.
Right then, the token suddenly trembled violently, erupting with even more dazzling divine radiance. Then, under Ye Yunfei’s astonished gaze, an energy hand actually extended from within the token.
This energy hand was condensed from Reincarnation Energy and Reincarnation Law, and carved upon it were numerous runes related to reincarnation.
The moment this energy hand appeared, all fighting spirit vanished from the Reincarnation Ghost. It emitted a sharp screech, turned, and fled.
This Reincarnation Ghost’s speed was astonishing, instantly piercing through space to escape into the distance. Yet, shockingly, the energy hand extending from the token was even faster. It instantly traversed a vast spatial distance, caught up to the Reincarnation Ghost, then gently grabbed it, holding the ghost like a small chick before hauling it back.
Finally, this energy hand slowly carried the Reincarnation Ghost into the token and vanished from sight. The token merely floated back before Ye Yunfei, hovering there silently.
“How is this possible? This token actually has such capabilities?”
Ye Yunfei felt both shock and elation at this outcome. The Reincarnation Ghost that had nearly killed him moments ago had now been effortlessly resolved by this token.
“Be careful. That terrifying Reincarnation Ghost is now imprisoned within this token. We absolutely cannot let it out. If it escapes, we’re doomed,” the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm said cautiously, eyeing the token hovering before Ye Yunfei.
“Maybe we just shouldn’t keep this token? Carrying it with us is like carrying that Reincarnation Ghost around. If it breaks free later, we’ll be the first to suffer,” the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm added.
“No, that Reincarnation Ghost has lost its ability to move within the token, and its aura has grown significantly weakened. I sense it is powerless to resist while inside the token,” Ye Yunfei stated.
Ye Yunfei had already refined this token and could clearly perceive its condition as well as the state of the Reincarnation Ghost imprisoned within.
