"We are really destined to meet each other so soon." Ye Xiong smiled and walked to the chair to sit down.
Lorna hurriedly walked over and closed the door. This guy didn't close the door even when he came. He came to find her so openly. If he was discovered, he would be in trouble.
"What are you doing here?" she asked quietly.
When she said this, she found that her heart was beating fast.
"I want to ask you about something." Ye Xiong changed his face and asked, "Do you know about the Soul Crossing Pearl?"
"I've heard of it. I've seen Captain Basel use it once. It's a magic weapon used to save the souls of the dead." Lorna replied.
"Transfer the souls of the dead?"
"Hong Tianji is a man with a Buddha's heart. Every time there is a war, many monks die, so he orders the captains to use soul-transferring beads to transcend the souls of the dead so that they can live in peace." Rona said.
"How can a person who has provoked a long-term war have a Buddha's heart?" Ye Xiong snorted, not believing it at all. "What is the difference between this and the bitch Li Zhen Memorial Arch?"
"Aren't you planning to come to Hong Tianji for a fight? Why did you suddenly ask about the Soul Crossing Pearl?" Luo Na asked in confusion.
"It's nothing, I just want to get to know you. I have other things to do, so I'll leave first."
At that moment, he turned into a stream of light and left.
Lorna looked confused, he just left like this, right?
However, he just left like this, which made Lorna very hurt.
After leaving Spaceship 88, Ye Xiong's body was suspended in mid-air, waiting quietly.
Half an hour later, the captains came out of the imperial city one after another and returned to all their warships.
Ye Xiong waited for a moment, then locked onto one of the captains and followed him.
With thunderous means, he caught the opponent with almost no effort.
With his current strength, he is no match for even a half-step golden elixir. How could a mere peak golden elixir be able to withstand it?
After Ye Xiong knocked the man unconscious, he dragged him into the woods and placed a restraint before waking him up.
The captain woke up faintly and jumped up. Just as he was about to take action, Ye Xiong calmly shouted: "If you don't want to die, just stand still. Killing you will be easier than killing a chicken."
"Who are you and what do you want to do with me?" the captain asked.
Ye Xiong stretched out his hand: "Take out the Soul Crossing Pearl."
The captain did not refuse, and obediently took out the Soul Crossing Pearl and handed it over.
Ye Xiong took the bead over, looked at it, and continued to ask: "How do you use this thing?"
"If you put your vitality into it, it will open. When the time comes, a magnetic field will be formed, and the dead souls will be sucked in." The captain replied.
Ye Xiong poured his vitality into it, and the bead immediately turned green and looked very charming.
"What happens after the dead souls gather in?" he continued to ask.
"After gathering, we will hand it over to His Holiness and he will handle it."
"Do you have to activate this bead every time there is a battle?"
"Yes."
"Is there anything else you want to say?"
"No, our mission is that simple."
A white light flashed in Ye Xiong's hand, and the captain fell to the ground immediately, with blood splattered on his neck and his head curled up.
Next, his body emitted a mass of black energy and was about to leave the body, but the bead immediately sucked the black energy into the bead.
The beads were originally transparent, but after absorbing the souls of the dead, they turned black.
An astonishing suspicion suddenly arose in Ye Xiong's mind, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
If this is really the case, then Hong Tianji told a huge lie.
He put away the beads, entered the mustard space, had a good night's rest, and was preparing for the next battle.
Early the next morning, while he was still sleeping, suddenly there was a terrifying energy fluctuation in the entire Mustard Seed space, and the vitality in the space was like a tide, heading towards the cabin where Netherworld lived.
"Is this... Netherworld about to break through?" Ye Xiong was suddenly surprised and happy, and ran over quickly.
Just after taking a few steps, his feet suddenly went weak and he almost lost his balance. The true energy of his body was drained away like the ebbing tide.
He quickly sat cross-legged on the ground, concentrating on his heart, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and supporting the power needed for Netherworld's breakthrough.
Although Yan Beishu had told him long ago that after becoming the life master, their lives would be connected, but when he didn't expect it, the other party would extract so much life essence from him.
It’s really hard to be the master of this destiny.
Ye Xiong gritted his teeth to support himself. He didn't know how long it took before the energy extraction speed slowed down.
At the same time, the flow of spiritual energy around the world also stopped and returned to calm.
"Madam, it's great that you have made a breakthrough."
"Congratulations, madam, you have finally reached the peak of the golden elixir."
"The master will be very happy if he knows."
In the distance, a group of people gathered around You Ming, congratulating happily.
Ye Xiong took a deep breath, stood up and walked over, smiling: "I finally made a breakthrough, congratulations."
Suddenly, a group of people looked at him with shock on their faces.
"Master, why did your hair suddenly turn white?" Bing Ling asked anxiously.
Ye Xiong was startled and quickly gathered a water mirror at the head to look at himself.
I saw that my originally black hair was now a little gray, as if it was stained with snowflakes.
The master said that as Nether's cultivation becomes deeper and deeper, the more lifespan will be extracted from him. Ye Xiong did not expect that Nether's hair would turn gray just by breaking through to the peak of the golden elixir.
"How do you like the hair I just dyed?" Ye Xiong shook his hair and said with a smile, "Do you think it's cool and looks mature?"
"It doesn't look good, but it still looks good before." Bing Ling shook her head.
"I don't think it looks good either." Huo Ling agreed.
"You two little brats, what do you know? This is maturity." Ye Xiong walked up to You Ming and said with a smile, "How about it? Does it look good?"
"Are you so idle?" You Ming rolled his eyes at him.
"You don't like it either, then I'll dye it back." Ye Xiong smiled awkwardly.
"Ah Xiong, you'd better come back. I'm really not used to looking like this. You look like an old man." Ruan Meigui next to her also said.
"Okay, I'll find time to dye it back." Ye Xiong said with a smile.
After a while of being miserable, the group of people left.
Back in the room, Ye Xiong set up a water mirror again and looked at his appearance above.
When he saw people from Jinshan Mountain before, he always wondered why he looked so old. Like the ancestors of the Southern Territory, he was also a thousand years old, and Zhuo Xuanyuan was also over 900 years old. Who looked like him?
He is like that.
Now he finally understood that at this rate, he would become older and older before long.
"It seems that we need to seize the time to deal with the matter here, return to the Five Planets Domain, retrieve Netherworld's body, and resurrect her." Ye Xiong was extremely anxious.
Three days later, Ye Xiong walked out of the Mustard Seed Space and headed directly towards the Imperial City.
This time he didn't dodge and came directly to the sky above the imperial city.
"Hong Tianji, here I come."
The sound was like thunder, spreading throughout the entire imperial city in an instant.
The final moment of decisive battle has finally arrived.
