At this moment, Ye Ling was immersed in studying the Great Transformation Heaven Evolution Art, completely unaware that he had been enveloped by a black lotus, nor that a face identical to his had appeared on the black lotus!
After the face grew out of the black lotus, a sinister smile appeared on its lips, and its gaze towards Ye Ling was filled with excitement and anticipation.
"So many years... I actually have a chance to revive!"
The face, identical to Ye Ling's, muttered to itself, then began to examine Ye Ling, chuckling, "Not bad... this body is even more perfect than Bai Yue's. Back then, Bai Yue annihilated me, but I never expected to have the chance to obtain such a perfect body!"
"Haha! Heaven is still on my side!"
The face laughed heartily, then its expression twisted, and it shrieked, "Bai Yue, you just wait! Once I control this body and recover my strength, I will return everything you owe me!"
"I will make you know that only I can cultivate the Great Transformation Heaven Evolution Art!"
The face sneered and directly burrowed into Ye Ling's body, beginning to seize control of Ye Ling's body and soul.
As the consciousness within the face entered Ye Ling's soul, the speed at which the Great Transformation Heaven Evolution Art circulated within Ye Ling's body suddenly accelerated, and Ye Ling's aura began to soar at an incredible rate!
"This body is truly perfect! I wonder where this brat found me!"
After manipulating Ye Ling's body, the consciousness within the face quickly inspected Ye Ling's physique, marveling, "Excellent, excellent! All the foundations are laid incredibly solid, it's practically a work of art. I've stumbled upon such a great windfall!"
The consciousness within the face praised Ye Ling's body without reservation, then began to try using Ye Ling's power, exclaiming in surprise, "Oh ho! To think he has so many Karma Skills and is the master of the Primordial Chaos!"
"I recall that fellow Bai Yue also came from the Primordial Chaos, didn't he? And the master of the Primordial Chaos isn't Bai Yue. It seems this fellow has even greater potential than Bai Yue!"
"The Primordial Chaos truly lives up to its reputation as the world ranked first in potential. Even though it has been suppressed since my era, so many monsters still emerge!"
The consciousness within the face was full of praise for Ye Ling's body, as if it had already completely claimed Ye Ling's body as its own.
However, strangely enough, even though the consciousness within the face had taken over Ye Ling's body and soul, and was constantly manipulating Ye Ling's body, Ye Ling's own consciousness showed no reaction, as if he had no idea his body had been taken over!
The consciousness within the face seemed very confident that Ye Ling's consciousness could not resist it. It directly manipulated Ye Ling's body to stand up and dispelled the Unnamed Void Realm.
"Let me see... this fellow is even the master of a Karma Spirit Beast. This is truly a massive gain!"
The consciousness within the face perused Ye Ling's memories, then glanced around in the void, its gaze finally falling upon Karma, who was currently battling the Void Spirit Son in the distance.
"Found him!"
The consciousness within the face spotted Karma, grinned, and immediately manipulated Ye Ling's body to teleport in front of Karma, landing a punch on the Void Spirit Son!
Bang!!!
A massive sound exploded in the void, sending the Void Spirit Son flying backward, disappearing into the darkness.
Karma, who was fiercely battling the Void Spirit Son, was stunned when he saw Ye Ling send the Void Spirit Son flying with a single punch. He stared blankly at Ye Ling, "Mas-Master?"
The consciousness within the face turned to look at Karma and beckoned him with a smile, saying, "Karma, come back."
Karma looked suspiciously at the current "Ye Ling," feeling that something was amiss, yet he couldn't pinpoint what it was.
He was certain that the person before him was Ye Ling.
Without overthinking, Karma flew to the front of the consciousness within the face and asked, "Master, are you finished fighting that female dragon?"
"Female dragon?"
The consciousness within the face blinked, "Where is there a female dragon?"
From Ye Ling's memories, it only saw itself cultivating the Great Transformation Heaven Evolution Art, while Karma was helping it guard its cultivation.
There was no female dragon present at all!
Karma became even more bewildered by the consciousness within the face's reaction and instinctively said, "It's Long Yao! Weren't you just fighting Long Yao?"
"Long Yao?"
Upon hearing Karma's reply, the pupils of the consciousness within the face contracted sharply, and it exclaimed, "You mean Bai Yue's Innate Immortal Spirit, Long Yao? Where, where is she?"
"That's right, Master, what's wrong with you?" Karma saw a hint of fear flicker in the eyes of the consciousness within the face, and his confusion deepened.
However, despite his confusion, Karma became vigilant in his heart, secretly guarding himself.
Although he was certain that the consciousness currently occupying his master's body was not his master!
And the consciousness within the face, after hearing Long Yao's name, began to look around, as if guarding against something.
Soon, the consciousness within the face fixed its gaze on Karma and said, "Karma, where did Long Yao go? Could she be nearby?"
The consciousness within the face had been annihilated by Bai Yue, and Long Yao, as Bai Yue's Innate Immortal Spirit, was almost always by Bai Yue's side. If Long Yao was nearby, Bai Yue must be nearby!
Although the consciousness within the face had been making threats about finding Bai Yue for revenge, it was also acutely aware that Bai Yue must have been cultivating the Great Transformation Heaven Evolution Art during the years it had been dead. The current Bai Yue was undoubtedly terrifying, and it was no match for him!
Karma did not know what the consciousness within the face was afraid of, and could only reply, "I was fighting the Void Spirit Son earlier. I only know that the female dragon imparted some kind of cultivation technique to you. However, I was also largely occupied by the Void Spirit Son, so I don't know the specifics."
"You mean Long Yao actively imparted the Great Transformation Heaven Evolution Art to this little... to me?" the consciousness within the face asked, shocked.
Karma pretended not to see through the consciousness within the face's disguise and nodded, "That's right."
Although Karma did not know what consciousness was currently occupying his master's body, he could sense that the consciousness within the face possessed all of Ye Ling's powers, including the Karma Skills that Ye Ling had mastered.
If the consciousness within the face were to go berserk at this moment, Karma would truly not be its match.
Therefore, Karma could only play it safe and try to find a way to bring back Ye Ling's consciousness.
Meanwhile, the consciousness within the face no longer cared about Karma. All its energy was focused on Long Yao, and it muttered, "Long Yao actively imparted the Great Transformation Heaven Evolution Art to this fellow? That's not right... Bai Yue went to great lengths to completely annihilate me, why would he let Long Yao impart the original version of the Great Transformation Heaven Evolution Art to someone else? Isn't this deliberately allowing me to revive?"
"What exactly does he want to do? Does he want me to possess this body?"
"But... why doesn't this Ye Ling have any memories of Long Yao? Who is behind this manipulation?"
As the consciousness within the face pondered various pieces of information, its thoughts gradually descended into chaos.
