However, the Spatial Insect Emperor did not give up. Not only did it not give up, but excitement and desire filled its murky eyes that had basically lost all light.
When it devoured Jian Chen's soul earlier, it had tasted a mysterious power that it coveted. The temptation of the mysterious power was so great that it felt an intense desire to obtain it regardless of the price it had to pay.
The Spatial Insect Emperor opened its mouth again and sucked, beginning to devour Jianchen's soul again. It wanted to absorb the mysterious power in Jianchen's soul that made its blood boil.
It had an instinctive feeling that once it absorbed the mysterious power, it would obtain unimaginable benefits.
However, it was unable to absorb the mysterious power in Jianchen's soul no matter what. Not only was it unable to absorb it, but the mysterious power even made its entire body ache. Its illusionary body writhed in an extremely unnatural manner as if it was in great pain.
In the end, the Spatial Insect Emperor opened its tiny mouth and spat out the part of the soul that it had devoured.
Afterwards, the Spatial Insect Emperor seemed to know no exhaustion. It began to cycle endlessly, devouring and spitting out Jianchen's soul.
Jianchen gradually stopped attacking the Spatial Insect Emperor as well. The battle prowess he could unleash in his sea of consciousness was extremely limited. His most powerful attacks relied on his soul.
However, his soul was only an Infinite Prime, while the Spatial Insect Emperor's soul was a Grand Prime. The difference between the two was just too great. It was like an ant trying to shake an elephant. It was as easy as scratching an itch.
If the Spatial Insect Emperor's soul was outside, he might have been able to pose a certain threat to it through physical means, but in his sea of consciousness, he was unable to use physical means at all. As a result, he was unable to do anything to the Spatial Insect Emperor.
"Fortunately, the Spatial Insect Emperor has lost its intelligence and only acts instinctively. Otherwise, the consequences would be unthinkable," Jianchen secretly rejoiced as he watched the Spatial Insect Emperor constantly devour his soul.
He knew extremely well that if the Spatial Insect Emperor's intelligence had not been wiped away, it would have many ways to deal with him. He definitely would not be the Spatial Insect Emperor's opponent in a battle of souls.
At this time, the medicinal effects of the Spirit Intoxicating Pill began to take effect. Jianchen immediately felt his primordial spirit become confused. Vaguely, his mind seemed to be affected, becoming somewhat hazy and unclear, and he had a feeling of drowsiness.
However, Jianchen's soul had fused with a strand of true Chaotic Force, so he was already different from others. Thus, the effects of the Soul-numbing Pill on him had already been reduced to a minimum, and it was not enough to numb him.
However, the soul of the Spatial Insect Emperor was not as easy. Its soul was indeed much more powerful than Jianchen's soul, but it was nowhere near as resistant to the Soul-numbing Pill as Jianchen.
Immediately, the Spatial Insect Emperor became more and more powerless as it devoured Jianchen's soul. Its illusionary eyes gradually became intoxicated as it opened and closed, gradually falling into a deep slumber.
The grand elder sternly observed Jianchen's reactions on the Heaven-linking Bridge. Only when he saw that Jianchen was fine did he let out a sigh of relief. Afterwards, he arrived beside Jianchen in a flash and grabbed Jianchen's shoulder, flying outside.
At the same time, the effects of the Soul-numbing Pill on the Spatial Insect Emperor in Jianchen's sea of consciousness increased. Its small, hazy eyes slowly closed.
However, at this moment, its eyes suddenly snapped open. A sliver of struggle appeared in its eyes. As it struggled, a few strands of light suddenly appeared in its hazy eyes.
It seemed like the Spatial Insect Emperor had recovered some of its intelligence at that moment.
Afterwards, it opened its tiny mouth and let out a soundless roar.
Jianchen immediately began to tremble violently. His face became extremely pale, and blood began to flow from his tightly shut eyes. It was a shocking sight.
The Spatial Insect Emperor's roar was extremely aggressive, causing Jianchen's entire sea of consciousness to churn violently. Even his soul trembled uncontrollably.
Moreover, a small portion of his soul had directly collapsed, giving Jianchen a splitting headache.
Outside, the grand elder seemed to sense something. His face suddenly changed, and he immediately let go of Jianchen's shoulder. He distanced himself from Jianchen in a flash.
The next moment, the space around Jian Chen cracked silently. Pitch-black spatial cracks appeared one after another with Jian Chen at the centre. They were as dense as a spiderweb.
"Oh no!" Cheng Ming's face suddenly changed. The medium quality god artifact armor he wore immediately erupted with powerful pulses of energy. The armor's defences were completely activated, forming a screen of light around Cheng Ming.
Cheng Ming arrived before Jianchen in a flash. He completely entered the cracked space around Jianchen. He used the medium quality god artifact armor to prop up the space, wanting to drag Jianchen out of the cracked space and take him away by force.
However, at this moment, the surrounding space froze. Not only was Jianchen trapped there, but even Cheng Ming's soul was trapped as well. He remained frozen with his hand extended.
Immediately afterwards, Cheng Ming's armor erupted with terrifying energy, forcefully pushing aside the frozen space. He immediately retreated far away, appearing outside the forbidden grounds.
He was only a soul right now, so he could only protect himself with the power of the armor. It was not enough to save Jianchen from the space.
"Grand elder, we need to go." A figure silently appeared before the grand elder. Demonic aura surged from him as he radiated with powerful blade intent.
He was the Blade Demon of the five generals.
At this moment, the Blade Demon's eyes that were shrouded by demonic aura stared at the sky sternly.
"Blade Demon, take Jianchen out," Cheng Ming said sternly.
The Blade Demon nodded. Just when he was about to take action, a huge bolt of lightning suddenly struck the divine hall of the Heavenly Demon Religion with blinding light. With a great boom, the divine hall dimmed and fell from the sky.
At the same time, a huge hand completely condensed from energy appeared in the sky. It descended with devastating might, directly crushing down on the army of the Heavenly Demon Religion. It enveloped the five generals of the Heavenly Demon Religion.
The Rain Abbess had personally taken action. The might of a single palm strike was devastating. It was shocking.
The face of the Blade Demon, who was about to save Jianchen, changed. The situation was urgent, so he completely ignored Jianchen. He vanished with the grand elder, appearing before the divine hall with a flash.
At the same time, the army of the Heavenly Demon Religion retreated as well. Like a black flood, they converged towards the divine hall.
