Vivian was surprisingly energetic after absorbing Ye Ling's soul power, which caught him off guard.
He had deliberately set strict terms for Vivian earlier out of caution.
Although Vivian now appeared as a cute young girl, he had fought her before and knew how terrifying she was.
If not for Karma's assistance, Ye Ling would have long ago fallen to Vivian's puppet axe!
Furthermore, Ye Ling had also clashed with other creatures from the dark dimension, and their bizarre and dreadful methods were still fresh in his memory.
However, after signing the contract with Vivian, Ye Ling discovered that she was somewhat different from other dark dimension creatures.
Perhaps it was because Vivian had lived and grown up in the void since her infancy, but she lacked the evil and brutality of other dark dimension creatures.
'Perhaps this is just my preconceived prejudice against the void's dark dimension? I need to change that going forward.'
Ye Ling mused, smiling at Vivian, "It's good to be motivated, but I must remind you that the current Primordial Chaos King is not the one you saw before. He has not only become the master of the Myriad Manifestation Void Spirit but also seized a Karma Skill from me. If you are careless, I cannot guarantee your safety."
Vivian, who had been beaming with excitement, was stunned upon hearing Ye Ling's words. She then began to cry, touched.
Seeing Vivian suddenly burst into tears again, Ye Ling was also taken aback and asked, "Why are you crying all of a sudden?"
Wiping her tears, Vivian said, "I thought I had encountered a stingy boss, and my life would be ruined. Now, I didn't expect the boss to be so generous and caring..."
"I'm that generous?"
Ye Ling was momentarily stunned by Vivian's words, failing to grasp the situation.
In his opinion, he had only given a twentieth of his soul power, and that consumption was easily replenished in minutes using his creation power.
As for caring about Vivian, he was merely offering a habitual reminder. He treated everyone around him the same way, and he didn't think it was a big deal.
However...
Although Ye Ling felt his contribution was negligible, he overlooked the fact that he was the Imperial Ancestor, the designated successor of the Primordial Chaos Will, the master of the third-ranked Innate Immortal Spirit, and that the void's dark dimension was watching him, plotting something unknown.
Ye Ling himself might not have realized his own significance, but Vivian, having received his soul power, was acutely aware of the immense bargain she had struck!
Let alone Vivian, even the top ten ranked Innate Demon Spirits would be willing to sign a contract with Ye Ling, even if the terms were ten times harsher!
"Boss, don't worry! From now on, your direction is my direction, Vivian's direction. I will definitely strive forward!"
Vivian puffed out her chest, patted it in front of Ye Ling, revealing her small canine teeth, and smiled.
Although Ye Ling hadn't fully understood the situation, he didn't see Vivian's motivation as a bad thing and smiled, "Since you're so motivated, then work hard from now on. After we deal with the Primordial Chaos King, I'll reward you!"
"No problem! Boss!"
As Ye Ling and Vivian reached an understanding in the burial ground of the Myriad Manifestation Void Spirit, the Primordial Chaos King, who had been guarding the outside, finally fully grasped the Absolute Divine Movement and wore a satisfied smile.
"Myriad Manifestation Void Spirit, you truly are my gospel. In our first encounter, you've already granted me a Karma Skill... After a period of development, the entire Primordial Chaos will be within my grasp!"
The Primordial Chaos King chuckled, then shifted his gaze back to the burial ground of the Myriad Manifestation Void Spirit, saying, "It's been so long, that Ye Ling fellow should be dead in there by now. I need to reclaim the powers of the other six Primordial Kings. Otherwise, if they scatter into the void, it will be troublesome to find them again."
With that, the Primordial Chaos King released his soul power, searching the burial ground for Ye Ling's corpse.
This burial ground was originally formed by the Myriad Manifestation Void Spirit. Now that the Primordial Chaos King was its master, the mist within the burial ground naturally could not stop him.
"Hmm? Why can't I find Ye Ling?"
The Primordial Chaos King did not find any trace of Ye Ling in the burial ground, and his brow furrowed slightly, a sense of foreboding rising in his heart.
"Did that fellow escape? No... impossible. I've set up a barrier around the perimeter of the burial ground. If he were to escape, I would surely sense it!"
"He might have hidden himself using runes!"
Realizing this, the Primordial Chaos King dared not be careless and immediately summoned the Myriad Manifestation Void Spirit.
Although the Primordial Chaos King was arrogant and outwardly looked down on Ye Ling, he truly considered Ye Ling his greatest rival.
Before battling Ye Ling, he had collected a considerable amount of information about Ye Ling in the Primordial Chaos, even knowing that Ye Ling used the Earthling name "Wang Li Ren" as an alias!
"Ye Ling's runes possess extremely strong concealment abilities. He should still be hiding in the burial ground, looking for an opportunity to counterattack!"
The Primordial Chaos King muttered to himself and began to transform into the black mist within the burial ground along with the Myriad Manifestation Void Spirit, merging with the entire burial ground to sense Ye Ling's presence.
"Primordial Chaos King, stop wasting your energy looking for me. I am right in front of you."
Just as the Primordial Chaos King transformed into black mist, Ye Ling emerged from the mist and smiled at him.
"You fellow... you're not dead?"
The Primordial Chaos King reverted to his human form and saw Ye Ling emerge from the burial ground unharmed. His eyes narrowed slightly. "It seems you also have the ability to pass the trials of the Myriad Manifestation Void Spirit..."
"But it's a pity. The Myriad Manifestation Void Spirit has already recognized me as its master. Even if you passed those trials, it would be all for naught, and you would gain nothing!"
The Primordial Chaos King smiled, beckoned the Myriad Manifestation Void Spirit to return to his side, and continued to smile at Ye Ling, "Ye Ling, I have taken the Absolute Divine Movement from you. Next... I will strip you of all your power, including the powers of the six Primordial Kings within you!"
Seeing the Primordial Chaos King's smile, Ye Ling asked, "Primordial Chaos King, do you really think I gained nothing inside?"
Hearing Ye Ling's words, the Primordial Chaos King's heart skipped a beat. He then assumed Ye Ling was bluffing and said with a laugh, "The Myriad Manifestation Void Spirit has already recognized me as its master. Even if you obtained something, it wouldn't be anything good!"
"That's not necessarily true!"
Ye Ling chuckled, "In that burial ground, wasn't there a place that you, even after subduing the Myriad Manifestation Void Spirit, dared not enter?"
The Primordial Chaos King's pupils contracted sharply!
