Ye Ling watched as the Primordial Soul King, who had taken human form using the World-Ending Spirit Fire's black sphere, appeared in the sky. He was momentarily speechless at the World-Ending Spirit Fire's actions.
However, Ye Ling had grown accustomed to such situations. If the World-Ending Spirit Fire didn't cause trouble one day, he would actually feel out of place.
He didn't blame the World-Ending Spirit Fire. Instead, he quickly said to everyone, "You all retreat first. I'll deal with this Primordial Soul King!"
"Ye Ling, be careful."
Tian Xing and A Yun knew they couldn't help much by staying. After warning Ye Ling, they both fled into the distance, not wanting to hold Ye Ling back.
The World-Ending Spirit Fire also felt a bit embarrassed. It quickly said to Ye Ling, "Kid, I messed up a bit this time. Next time, I'll definitely give you a big gift!"
With that, the World-Ending Spirit Fire didn't linger and chased after Tian Xing and A Yun.
"This guy, he never makes things easy..."
Seeing that the World-Ending Spirit Fire had reached a safe place, Ye Ling couldn't help but shake his head and smile. Then, he shifted his gaze to the Primordial Soul King, his eyes becoming serious.
"Speaking of which... the World-Ending Spirit Fire actually stumbled upon the right path. If he hadn't tinkered with this thing, the Primordial Soul King's consciousness would truly be hidden within my body, becoming a ticking time bomb."
Ye Ling muttered to himself, not holding much blame towards the World-Ending Spirit Fire.
Although the Primordial Soul King had been unleashed again, this also gave Ye Ling an opportunity to completely resolve future troubles.
The Primordial Soul King manipulated his mechanical body, twisting his head, and smiled at Ye Ling, "Although it's been a long time since I've used this body and all the joints are a bit rusty, it's more than enough to deal with lowly beings like you."
Ye Ling, facing the Primordial Soul King's taunts, was not to be outdone. He retorted, "Calling me a low-level being one after another, yet who was it that was just like a dog, locked in a cage and screaming hysterically?"
"You truly... have great audacity!"
The Primordial Soul King's eyes glowed red, and the surrounding space began to collapse due to the aura he released!
"Primordial Soul King, this small place is really not suitable for a fight. Let's change locations!"
Seeing that the Primordial Soul King was about to attack, Ye Ling didn't want to fight him on this small planet. He immediately transformed into a black streak of light, piercing through the void and heading into the depths of space.
"Trying to escape?"
Seeing Ye Ling flee, the Primordial Soul King merely sneered. His massive mechanical body transformed into countless blue particles, chasing after Ye Ling at extreme speed.
In the dark expanse of space, a meteor flashed by.
Ye Ling scanned his surroundings with his divine soul, confirming that there were no civilizations within hundreds of billions of light-years, before stopping.
"This place should be the most open area in the Tianyi Universe. Fighting here shouldn't cause much impact."
Ye Ling murmured. Simultaneously, a large number of blue particles appeared around him, eventually forming a massive mechanical cage that trapped him within.
"Kid, what's your name? I don't kill the nameless," the Primordial Soul King asked indifferently, standing above and looking down at Ye Ling.
Ye Ling, feeling the oppressive aura of the Primordial Soul King, was not intimidated at all. He directly unleashed the power of the Primordial Wisdom King to counter the Primordial Soul King's aura and shouted, "Primordial Soul King, listen well, the one about to slay you... is Wang Li Ren!"
"What arrogance!" the Primordial Soul King sneered, his eyes flashing red. "Wang Li Ren, you should feel fortunate. You will be the first person I slay after my return!"
As his voice fell, a large number of blue particles appeared behind the Primordial Soul King, forming numerous fine needles that shot towards Ye Ling like a torrential downpour!
Each fine needle was capable of tearing through the Tianyi Universe, allowing chaotic storms to surge in from the outside!
"Excellent!"
Seeing the overwhelming barrage of needles, Ye Ling didn't dodge. He directly activated his Devouring Domain, consuming all the chaotic storms and needles within the particle cage.
"Interesting..." The Primordial Soul King chuckled upon seeing Ye Ling's activated domain. He then raised his hand and grabbed at the void.
A transparent giant hand materialized around Ye Ling, crushing him and the space around him within its palm!
Ye Ling intended to use runes to resist the pressure of the transparent giant hand, but as soon as he unleashed the runes, he felt his soul being grasped, and a soul-deep sting continuously stimulated Ye Ling's nerves!
"Wang Li Ren, I control souls. I can directly attack your soul. None of your defenses are effective. Surrender obediently."
With that, the Primordial Soul King tightened his grip, directly distorting Ye Ling's soul.
"Damn... what kind of technique is this?"
Ye Ling endured the soul pain and tried to use runes to counteract the Primordial Soul King's invisible hand. However, no matter what method he used, even his soul power, he couldn't touch the invisible hand. It only inflicted real damage upon him.
"Other beings, including the watchers, would scream in agony under my Soul Manipulation Hand. You have backbone, not uttering a sound. I must acknowledge you."
The Primordial Soul King praised Ye Ling, but he didn't hold back his attacks. He even increased the force, unleashing an invisible soul blade that ignored Ye Ling's Devouring Domain and rune barrier, directly severing an arm of Ye Ling's soul! Ye Ling's left arm was directly crippled, and he was drenched in sweat from the pain.
Gripped by the invisible hand, he couldn't even move. He could only watch helplessly as he became the Primordial Soul King's target.
After an arm was severed, all Ye Ling could do was use his creation power to compensate for his incomplete soul, maintaining his soul at its peak state to avoid being killed by the Primordial Soul King.
Seeing that Ye Ling's creation power could mend his soul, a hint of surprise flashed in the Primordial Soul King's eyes. However, his surprise didn't last long. He continued to sneer, "Hmph! Futile struggle! I want to see how long you can last!"
As his voice fell, numerous invisible soul needles materialized out of thin air and shot towards Ye Ling, turning his soul into a sieve!
Each soul needle took a part of Ye Ling's soul, while also inflicting endless pain upon him.
At this moment, Ye Ling was enduring inhuman torture every moment!
"Damn it... you really won't stop! Even if it's a turn-based battle, it's my turn!"
Ye Ling roared, feeling he was reaching his limit. He finally decided to abandon resisting the Primordial Soul King's invisible giant hand and directly used Mo Zhi Jian to modify his soul, sealing all his senses!
Simultaneously, dark chains materialized around Ye Ling, rapidly wrapping around the Primordial Soul King.
The Primordial Soul King sneered, "With tricks like yours, you probably won't even wound me before I easily destroy your soul."
"Then let's see if you destroy my soul first, or if I drag you down with me!"
Ye Ling gritted his teeth, completely abandoning his soul and pouring all his strength, including his creation power, into the dark chains, transforming them into Mo Zhi Jian and the Devouring Domain!
"Madman?"
Seeing Ye Ling's desperate fighting style, the Primordial Soul King's expression changed drastically!
