Yu Zhibo opened his eyes, not expecting such a pleasant surprise.
A wisp of gray qi formed by a chaotic chain was equivalent to the chaotic gray qi brought back by a hundred of his clones disappearing in this realm. It was terrifyingly powerful.
If all thirty chaotic chains were absorbed, his progress in evolving the Nine Tomoe Rinnegan would significantly increase.
Suddenly, Yu Zhibo felt an immense surge of motivation. What he initially thought was obligatory labor turned out to be a well-compensated task with extremely generous rewards.
After a brief rest, he stood up again. With a mere thought, the golden energy on his body rapidly intertwined, transforming into the appearance of the Heavenly Emperor Susanoo.
"Holy crap, the speed increased so much!" Yu Zhibo's heart trembled. He felt his ocular power become stronger, and the speed of releasing Susanoo had doubled.
There was no question about it, he had to keep slashing!
The next moment, Yu Zhibo swung his long sword and slashed down again.
Perhaps due to the increase in ocular power, his slashing speed became even faster this time, and his power grew. After another half hour, another gray chain broke. At this point, Bai Xinyi's soul had already left his body for nearly two hundred meters, and the toughness of the chaotic chains was continuously weakening.
The moment the chaotic chain broke, before Yu Zhibo could act, his forehead once again shone brightly. The golden spiritual entity crawled out on its own, holding two Sharingan and absorbing the chaotic gray qi.
Then, the process repeated.
Another half hour passed, and Yu Zhibo stood up from the ground again. With a whoosh, he transformed into Susanoo, wielding the Heavenly Emperor's sword to slay the fox.
"Zing, zing, zing..."
As time passed, one chaotic chain after another was cut. After the tenth one, each broken chain went from one to two. At this time, Bai Xinyi's soul could already detach from his body for nearly a thousand meters.
Simultaneously, after refining sixteen chains, Yu Zhibo's progress on the Tomoe Rinnegan directly increased to 1602/10000.
The progress extension brought about very noticeable changes to Yu Zhibo. Now, even his Susanoo had reached the level of instantaneous activation.
As for Bai Xinyi, he was not doing as well.
He was in excruciating pain!
He didn't know how many swords he had been cut by, and as the chaotic laws weakened their binding on his soul, the pain became increasingly apparent.
"Continue! Continue! Continue! Kill!" he roared furiously, his consciousness nearing the brink of collapse.
Yu Zhibo stopped his sword, looking at Bai Xinyi struggling madly under the chaotic chains, his expression conflicted.
He worried that if he kept slashing, his brother-in-law's soul might be completely cut away.
Unfortunately, the Tai Chi Heavenly Emperor Soul Slaying Sword could not directly break the chains. Its effect seemed more like weakening the connection between Bai Xinyi and the chaotic chains.
"Let's eat some suns to rest!" Yu Zhibo said, without regard for whether Bai Xinyi could understand. He activated his Mangekyo and conjured a hundred Golden Crow suns in the sky.
As the chaotic energy was absorbed, these Golden Crow suns seemed to be imbued with some strange, special energy, becoming even more radiant, with a faint silvery sheen.
"Whoosh..."
From a thousand meters high, Bai Xinyi's soul was pulled back by the chains. He weakly raised his head, looking at the suns in the sky, his eyes revealing a primal, instinctive craving.
But he couldn't even move his body now.
Yu Zhibo sighed and controlled the suns, feeding them into Bai Xinyi's mouth one by one. Bai Xinyi opened his mouth slightly and swallowed.
As he swallowed the suns, a large amount of black and gray energy emanated from him, the effect being more pronounced than any previous time he had eaten a little sun.
Bai Xinyi's eyes grew brighter and brighter.
"Is it because of the influence of chaotic energy?" Yu Zhibo thought to himself and continued feeding him.
Soon, after eating all one hundred suns, Bai Xinyi could no longer eat. Yu Zhibo fed him another sixteen, and only after Bai Xinyi indicated he couldn't eat anymore did he resume swinging his sword.
With this slash, Bai Xinyi's soul directly leaped out of his body for over two thousand meters. The chains connecting his body and soul were instantly stretched taut, making a "whoosh, whoosh" sound as they swung.
"This is promising!" Yu Zhibo's eyes lit up. After Bai Xinyi's soul was pulled back again, he struck once more.
This time, three chaotic chains broke directly.
Moreover, after eating the little suns, Bai Xinyi's soul was no longer on the verge of death.
As the chaotic law energy was absorbed, Yu Zhibo's slashes became increasingly powerful. And with the continuous breaking of the chaotic chains, the connection between Bai Xinyi's soul and his physical body became increasingly weak.
Finally, when only 5 chains remained, at a certain moment, Yu Zhibo heavily swung down the Heaven and Earth Sword, and then...
"Zing! Zing! Zing! Zing! Zing!"
All five chaotic chains snapped simultaneously. Bai Xinyi's Heavenly Fox soul, too, floated completely in mid-air.
Thus, his soul was finally free!
"Roar~"
Although Bai Xinyi was weak at this moment, his soul opened its mouth and let out a hearty roar, stirring up a soul storm on the black earth.
"Farewell, prison!"
At his level, his soul could already convert between solid and ethereal forms. Reincarnation and rebirth were not difficult matters. He laughed, his soul form transforming into a human shape, and approached Yu Zhibo.
His lips moved slightly, as if saying something. Finally, a thousand words converged into a single sentence:
"Brother-in-law, thank you!"
"We're family, no need for such talk!" Yu Zhibo also smiled broadly. The spiritual entity between his eyebrows flew out immediately, absorbing the last five wisps of chaotic qi.
As his internal sequence core began to refine the chaotic qi, he looked at Bai Xinyi, feeling quite emotional.
In this soul-slashing operation, he had swung his sword over six thousand three hundred times, each representing immense pain. If it were Yu Xiaoying, she would have cried herself to death long ago.
But Bai Xinyi endured it all.
This man, a tough guy, reliable! He could really take the hits!
At the same time, he noticed a wisp of chaotic qi flowing within Bai Xinyi's soul, condensed after a thousand refinements. This chaotic qi existed within his soul form, and with it, perhaps he could reshape his Heavenly Fox Chaotic Body, or even reach a higher level.
"In this case, there's no need to give him the Origin of Immortals and Demons anymore, to avoid creating unnecessary trouble!"
After all, the Origin of Immortals and Demons was merely a product derived from low-level demonic bodies purified by immortal lightning. At most, it could carry a soul of A-rank forty-ninth tier. Once it exceeded the law level, it would collapse before long.
Although the system had clearly stated this, he could also see it himself.
Therefore, Yu Zhibo decided to directly use the Reincarnation Creation Realm to bring Bai Xinyi's soul back to Earth.
The next moment, the Tai Chi Heavenly Emperor Soul Slaying Sword in his hand was absorbed into his eyes, and then an ancient silver mirror flew out – the Reincarnation Creation Realm.
The Reincarnation Creation Mirror had the function of storing souls and could even evolve into eighteen levels of hell. Therefore, accommodating Bai Xinyi's soul was naturally no problem.
"Brother-in-law, relax your soul, I'll take you home!"
Yu Zhibo said, raising his right hand holding the mirror.
The ancient silver mirror emitted a hazy white light, and the mirror surface transformed into a vortex with suction.
"Yes, it's time for me to go home too!" Bai Xinyi smiled and nodded. His soul turned into a white light and entered the vortex formed by the mirror.
