A brand new storm gathered in the depths of Gao Ye's throat.
It was clear that he was resisting it.
In fact, the nerves and muscle bundles in his mouth were twitching madly.
But they could not stop the Demonic Abyss Eye from forcefully controlling them. They could only let the crushing ultrasound waves charge out.
But this time, Meng Chao used the surging spirit flames around him to form a burning shield that blocked the ultrasonic wave that could crush diamond. He stood in front of Gao Ye with all his might, and even if blood flowed out of his orifices, he refused to take even half a step back.
"How is this possible?"
Lu Siya's face was filled with disbelief.
In the eyes of the Spirit Sensor, Gao Ye's ultrasound waves were like a raging flood that broke a dam.
But Meng Chao was like an indestructible reef. No matter how the flood raged on him, he just stood there.
'Is Gao Ye's attacks weaker, or is Meng Chao's fighting strength stronger?'
Lu Siya found it harder and harder to understand. 'It seems like … it's both. Meng Chao's guess is right. Gao Ye is indeed resisting the Demonic Abyss Eye's control. His soul is crawling upwards in the dark abyss!'
'Professor Gao Ye, give yourself a chance. Give all Dragon Citizens a chance.'
In the beginning, Meng Chao's throat was blocked by blood. Aside from gritting his teeth, he could not say anything.
But Gao Ye's ultrasound waves did not just crush his flesh, nerves, and bones. They also crushed his spirit meridians, which were filled with a large amount of Red Radiance Jades and Blue Origin Crystals.
Meng Chao was the person who absorbed the most spirit energy from the double spirit energy tsunami while he was under Raging Waves.
Based on Lu Siya's estimations, the spirit energy he absorbed was at least ten times what she and Qin Hu absorbed. It was also one hundred times more than what any superhuman on the surface absorbed.
It was clear that Meng Chao could not completely digest such a large amount of spirit energy when he was only a one-star superhuman at that time.
A large amount of spirit energy surged into his 108 main meridians and 1,024 branch meridians. Aside from pushing him to two-star superhuman in one go, it also caused a lot of spirit energy to accumulate in his cells.
His problem was actually the same as Qin Hu's. Since he had a unique constitution and walked the Ultimate Style, he had 1,024 branch meridians to share the burden of his main meridians, which was why he could maintain the circulation of spirit energy in his body and not lose all his strength.
Over the next year or so, he used his contribution points to break through the bottleneck in his spirit energy and strengthened his organs and limbs, which was why he was able to reach the peak of Earth Realm so quickly.
But there was still a lot of spirit energy that was stuck in the corners where it was very difficult to cultivate with normal spirit energy magnetic fields. It was like the scale at the corner of a pipe.
However —
At that moment, Meng Chao could clearly sense that the stagnant spirit energy was like a frozen river under the scorching sun when flowers bloomed in spring. The ice was gradually cracking, and it started flowing like a river again.
Wisps of spirit energy flowed out through the cracks in his spirit meridians. They seeped into his organs, blood vessels, nerves, and even his cells. With the help of the Ultimate Style and contribution points, they repeatedly refined his body, causing countless cells to go through the process of being crushed, gathered together, crushed again, gathered together again, and tempered over and over again in just a few seconds.
In just a short ten seconds, Meng Chao discovered to his shock that he could actually talk while Gao Ye's ultrasound attack!
Meng Chao was delighted.
"There are a lot of problems in Dragon City today, and there are even more people who are willing to give up everything to solve them!"
Meng Chao swung his fists and said, "Professor Gao Ye, give each other a chance. Let's work together!
"I know that you don't trust many of the superhumans who stand at the top. You believe that if the superhumans continue growing in power, they will sooner or later endanger the interests of normal people.
"I admit that many of your viewpoints are not without reason, but I still believe that the common interests between superhumans and normal people far surpass the conflicts between them. Even among the mega corporations and cultivation families, there are plenty of knowledgeable people who are willing to work with us to create a beautiful future.
"Let's talk about Lu Siya. She's one of the nine great cultivation families in Dragon City and the third generation of Sky Pillar Corporation. She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. She lives in a mansion and drives a luxurious car. She used to look down on normal people, but ever since she started following me, she was influenced by what she saw and heard, and without her realizing it, she was influenced by me. She learned to look at our home from a different angle. She learned that normal people are the soil and superhumans are the trees, that treating normal people kindly is treating superhumans kindly, that the concept of strength is relative, and that when the apocalypse arrives, no matter how strong a person is, it's impossible for them to escape alone.
"Now, she has completely implemented the ideals that superhumans are the sabers of human civilization and the blood of the strong flows for the weak. She's contributing to Dragon City wholeheartedly. Big Sis Ya, don't you think so?"
"Um …" Lu Siya's expression was complicated.
"I'm not. I didn't —"
Before she could finish speaking, Meng Chao stopped her.
"I know you didn't," Meng Chao whispered.
"I'm just trying to make Gao Ye full of confidence in human civilization again!"
"I know that," Lu Siya said.
"But from a physiological point of view, I think that what you said is too mushy. I'm getting goosebumps."
"Don't bother yourself with the details. At the very least, you saved a father and daughter who don't know each other while you were on your way. Am I right?" Meng Chao said.
"You're right," Lu Siya said.
"Then it's settled!"
Meng Chao looked at Gao Ye again. "Professor Gao Ye, you've already successfully shown many superhumans the power that normal people can possess. Now, as long as you can prove that normal people can control this power, I believe that superhumans and normal people will definitely reach a new balance.
"But if you allow your sacred soul to continue turning into this monster's plaything, the project you spent your entire life working on will be branded as evil. You'll be blacklisted, and you'll never be able to get out of this predicament.
"Think about it carefully. Perhaps Dragon City's future will depend on whether you're a human or a monster's puppet!"
Gao Ye was the Ultimate Sandworm. The ultrasonic storm that came out of his mouth gradually calmed down.
He seemed to have sunk into great puzzlement and conflict.
The gigantic body suddenly stiffened, twitched, straightened, and curled up into a ball.
Even the dense tusks in the bloody mouth were shivering, rotating, and coming to an abrupt halt, like a shield tunneling machine that had gone through a malfunction.
Lu Siya seized the chance to flip the Fire God Cannon on her shoulder.
But Meng Chao blocked her path again.
"Trust me," Meng Chao said with bloodshot eyes.
Meng Chao said with bloodshot eyes. "Give me a chance, and give a human's struggling soul a chance! If you really don't want to believe me, you can retreat a hundred meters and wait for me behind the collapsed rocks. If he's controlled by the 'mastermind' again and there's any danger, I'll hold him off first. You can just run. There's absolutely no danger to your life! "
Lu Siya stared at Meng Chao and thought about it seriously.
"Sure."
She nodded and ran dozens of meters back. She disappeared behind the collapsed rocks.
"… He really ran away?"
Meng Chao was stunned for a moment, but he soon composed himself and turned around to face Gao Ye. He clenched his fists and cheered for him in the battle of souls.
Gao Ye's spasms grew stronger.
He even lifted his head and rammed it against the walls by his sides and the rocks above his head.
The wounds left by Li Yingzi and Gao Ye just now had already grown new flesh with his astonishing self-healing abilities.
But now, they were torn apart again, and he coughed up a large amount of blood and liquid, causing him to wither rapidly.
Gao Ye's body swelled up and down. He let out a thunderous roar, but Meng Chao could not tell whether he was in pain or pleasure.
It was as if two souls had been stuffed into a shell, and they were fighting for control of the body.
Meng Chao did not know just who had the upper hand.
Was it the human Gao Ye or the monster Gao Ye?
He only knew that the dozens of strange eyes on his head shone with an increasingly intense light. Gradually, they turned piercing red, just like a human's burning blood.
In a daze, Meng Chao seemed to see a blurry human-shaped spirit flame. It looked like a human soul that gushed out of the Ultimate Sandworm's nervous system.
There were circles of ripples around the spirit flame.
They were the mental shackles from the Demonic Abyss Eye.
The mental shackles had sunk deep into the human-shaped soul flame.
They seemed to want to cut, tear, and destroy Gao Ye's soul.
Meng Chao had never heard of such a mysterious battle at the mind level before, and he did not know how he should help Gao Ye.
After thinking about it nervously for a while, he said hesitantly, "Um, Professor Gao Ye, do you need me to sing a song to liven things up for you?"
There was no need for that.
Because just when the Demonic Abyss Eye's mental shackles were about to tear Gao Ye's soul to shreds, the Ultimate Sandworm let out a deafening roar. The light of humanity gushed out of the dozens of strange eyes at the same time like a volcano eruption. The human-shaped spirit flame also grew brighter, and in an instant, it shattered the mental shackles around it!
The Demonic Abyss Eye looked as if it had been pierced by an invisible longspear.
It let out a pained scream that terrified people's hearts.
The huge eye that occupied most of its body was instantly covered in blood capillaries. They broke one by one, and at first glance, it looked as if its entire eyeball had shattered. A large amount of sticky and crystalline liquid that looked like blood seeped out of its surface.
'I did it!'
Meng Chao was so happy that he wanted to cry.
Gao Ye had successfully broken free of the Demonic Abyss Eye's mind control.
In fact, the Demonic Abyss Eye suffered a mental backlash.
"Did you see that? A human's soul isn't something a monster like you can control forever!" Meng Chao shouted as he swung his fists.
But this was not the end.
No matter what, a Supernatural Entity was a Supernatural Entity.
Even if it had not completely evolved, it would not be so easy to kill it.
The Demonic Abyss Eye's body, which was like an eyeball, a heart, and a brain, shrank by half.
Its tentacles swelled up as if they were filled with blood and turned into leeches covered in spikes.
It jumped behind Gao Ye.
With the help of the leech-like tentacles, it instantly crawled to Gao Ye's head.
