Long Yu pondered for a moment and finally decided to enter the ball of darkness.
This was because he realized that he could not absorb any Jiuyou Dragon Emperor's aura after he entered the void in the middle of the Death Star Whirlpool. Unless he entered the ball of darkness.
Most importantly, he could not retreat at all!
If he retreated, it would be the high-speed rotating dense Enlightenment-level Nine Nether Divine Characters whirlpool. He could follow it in, but he could not flow out. Therefore, entering the ball of darkness in the middle was his only option.
If he did not enter, he could slowly comprehend the Nine Nether Imprint until he comprehended 80%. However, that would not take a few days, but a few hundred years!
One must know that the mastery of the Nine Nether Imprint became increasingly difficult as one progressed. It was only because he had absorbed enough Jiuyou Dragon Emperor's aura that Long Yu was able to improve his mastery of the Nine Nether Imprint so quickly.
However, if he were to absorb it himself, he would need at least a hundred years to reach the final 5%. Under the circumstances where he could not absorb the Jiuyou Dragon Emperor's aura, a hundred years was considered a short period.
Long Yu's spirit quickly floated towards the ball of darkness in the middle. The closer he got, the more he could feel the will and pressure from the Jiuyou Dragon Emperor.
Endless memories were concentrated in the ball of darkness and were integrated with the extremely dense Jiuyou Dragon Emperor's aura. However, Long Yu did not know if there was anything else in it.
He had no choice but to get closer to the ball of darkness.
Finally, Long Yu's spirit came into contact with the ball of darkness. He felt the dense Jiuyou Dragon Emperor's aura and started to absorb the Jiuyou Dragon Emperor's aura.
This was what Long Yu needed the most. Of course, he had to absorb this aura first. However, just as he started to absorb the Jiuyou Dragon Emperor's aura, the concentrated Jiuyou Dragon Emperor's memories rushed towards Long Yu's mind like a raging wave in the ocean and rushed into his spirit!
Long Yu's body was still at the edge of the Death Star Whirlpool.
His spirit, in the center of the dead star whirlpool, began to absorb Jiuyou Dragon Emperor's dense aura, and began to resist Jiuyou Dragon Emperor's memory impact!
Long Yu's mental state started to become incomparably tense. There had never been a moment in his life where his mental state was under such great pressure. In the past, even when he followed the Death Envoy to train his body in the Deathly Realm, and constantly experienced the cycle of death and reincarnation, he had never endured such great mental pressure.
Long Yu held on with all his might. He could feel that his control over the Mark of the Netherworld was getting deeper and deeper. From 75%, it was constantly moving towards 80%!
This speed was even faster than when he had first obtained the Nine You Mark. After all, this ball of darkness contained the most concentrated Jiuyou Dragon Emperor's aura. This allowed Long Yu's mastery of the Nine You Mark to increase rapidly.
However, at the same time, the mental pain he was facing was getting more and more intense.
He had never felt the pain of resisting the memory impact. Now that he was experiencing it for the first time, he was in so much pain that he wished he was dead. His spirit and soul were on the verge of collapsing at any moment.
He had a feeling that if he gave up resisting the memory impact, he would be able to relax. However, it was precisely because of this that he did not dare to give up resisting.
Because he was afraid that once he gave up resisting, Jiuyou Dragon Emperor's memory would completely occupy his spirit and soul. He would no longer be himself, and he would no longer be Long Yu!
A battle of the mind was extremely dangerous and arduous. If it was someone else here, without confirming the danger, they would have long let go and no longer resisted the impact of the memory.
However, Long Yu did not dare to do so.
Even if there was only a one in ten thousand risk, he would not take the risk. Long Yu had always been the most cautious person. Otherwise, he would not have made it this far. If he had not been cautious, he would have died too many times in his previous experiences.
The remnant memory impact from Jiuyou Dragon Emperor kept scouring Long Yu's spirit and soul in an attempt to destroy them completely. However, Long Yu resisted it with all his might.
If it was a powerful impact in terms of physical body, Long Yu would definitely not be able to withstand it if the difference between the two sides was too great. However, in terms of mental strength, Long Yu was certain that he was absolutely incomparably strong. As long as he continued to persevere, there was nothing that could destroy his mental strength.
After the massive memory impact hit Long Yu's spirit, it dispersed in all directions and formed a memory turbulence that spread far away. It left the void and spun rapidly along with the Profit-level Nine Nether Divine Text whirlpool towards the outside of the Death Star Whirlpool.
Previously, the memory that Long Yu had sensed was the memory that had been lost to the outside for millions of years. Now, the speed at which these memories were rushing towards the outside was billions of times faster than before. In just a short period of time, a large amount of memories had gushed out from all directions.
Long Yu did not notice this. Currently, he was completely resisting the impact of the memory turbulence on his spirit. At the same time, he was absorbing the rich aura of Jiuyou Dragon Emperor.
The memories of Jiuyou Dragon Emperor that he had rejected actually gathered in a certain direction after leaving the core void. They kept drifting in the periphery of the Profit-level Nine Nether Divine Text that was not very rich.
Soon, this memory condensation approached the other spirit in the Death Star Whirlpool – Ji Yuan Daoyi!
Ji Yuan Daoyi's spirit was guarding the core of the Death Star Whirlpool. It kept drifting here and there, trying to think of a way to deal with Long Yu. However, he could not think of any good ideas.
He had missed the best opportunity to kill Long Yu. Now, it had become extremely difficult to kill Long Yu.
Ji Yuan Daoyi did not notice at all that an invisible memory condensation was gradually approaching his spirit and attaching itself to him.
… …
Outside the Death Star Whirlpool.
Half a day had passed since the Ten Thousand Ghosts Purgatory had opened. During this time, Si Yuanbai, Diao Feng, and Consort Yu were all under a lot of pressure.
This was especially so for Consort Yu. She was facing two Great Rulers alone and a third Great Ruler who had just arrived. Fighting one against three, she was gradually losing ground. However, she had relied on her great strength to resist until now.
However …
She was about to reach her limit.
The main thing was that Consort Yu's strength alone could not compare to the strength of three Great Rulers. Every one of them had used up one-third of their strength, while Consort Yu was almost out of strength.
Once her strength was completely exhausted, there would only be one outcome – death!
At this very moment, the situation had already become incomparably tense. If Long Yu was still unable to come out from the Death Star Whirlpool, Concubine Yu would definitely have to consider retreating. Although she was very reluctant to part with Long Yu, she had no other choice.
After retreating, she could only hope that Long Yu could last a little longer in the Death Star Whirlpool until he grasped 80% of the Mark of the Underworld. That way, she might be able to quickly teleport to Long Yu's side and take him away using the Space-Time Mark left on the Netherworld Dragon Blade.
Of course, this would be very difficult. If she retreated now, the Loushan Clan would definitely guard the Death Star Whirlpool and the entrance to the Netherworld Realm even more tightly.
If she wanted to find another opportunity, it would be a hundred times harder than it was now!
Therefore, until the last moment, Consort Yu would never give up.
The power of the black and white divine characters, the dense Netherworld Qi, and the ethereal Immortal Qi continued to condense in Consort Yu's hands. She released her seven remarkable abilities one after another, constantly resisting the attacks of the three Great Rulers.
Consort Yu's movements were already a little sluggish. Compared to the ease she had at the beginning, the pressure now was obviously much greater.
However, it was also at this moment that a vast and boundless spiritual energy instantly exploded from the Death Star Whirlpool not far away, erupting and spreading in all directions!
That wave of spiritual energy was like a storm, sweeping all the battlefields outside of the Death Star Whirlpool. Moreover, what surprised the people in Consort Yu's camp was that the people of the Jiuyou Clan were completely unaffected by this spiritual storm.
On the other hand, the practitioners of the Loushan Clan were greatly impacted by this spiritual storm, and more of their strength was suppressed.
The expressions of the three Great Rulers of the Loushan Clan changed greatly. Golden rays of light spread everywhere, but they were unexpectedly unable to resist the impact of this spiritual energy. The strength that they could exert was even more suppressed.
If the Great Rulers who had come to the Netherworld Realm before could exert thirty percent of their strength, then these three Great Rulers could only exert ten percent of their strength now.
The three of them were equivalent to one person!
On the other hand, Consort Yu wasn't affected too much. She could still exert thirty percent of her strength. With that, she quickly found an opportunity to directly repel the three Great Rulers, buying herself more time.
"Long Yu must have made some breakthrough in the Death Star Whirlpool. That's why he's like this."
Consort Yu looked at the place where the Death Star Whirlpool was, and a new glimmer of hope appeared in her heart. If Long Yu could grasp the Mark of the Netherworld in a short period of time, the situation would be much better!
However, even with Consort Yu's perceptive ability as a Great Ruler, she still couldn't detect what was happening in the Death Star Whirlpool.
Therefore, she couldn't be sure how far Long Yu was from grasping eighty percent of the Mark of the Netherworld.
And now, in the void at the very center of the Death Star Whirlpool, Long Yu had already absorbed a huge amount of the Jiuyou Dragon Emperor's aura, until he had grasped seventy-nine percent of the Mark of the Netherworld.
At this time, he tried to activate the Death Star Whirlpool. After realizing that he had grasped seventy-nine percent of the Mark of the Netherworld, he already had the ability to activate the Death Star Whirlpool to a certain extent. Therefore, he released a wave of spiritual attack. He didn't expect that it would coincidentally solve the urgent problem that Consort Yu was facing.
