Only a unique technique could manifest such dominating flames of spiritual energy, which was' Dragon Over the Sky ', the technique of the Supreme Emperor, the strongest expert of the civilization of mankind ten thousand years ago!
The Blood God naturally grasped the Supreme Emperor's technique and passed it on to Blackstar the Great ten thousand years later. Li Yao had seen the violent and dominating power when he met Li Linghai for the first time in the Sand Primitive Sector. At that time, he mistook Li Linghai for the Supreme Emperor's heir and cooperated with her.
He did not expect to sense the same power from Li Jialing again today.
It seemed that Li Jialing had absorbed all of Wuying Qi 2.0's power, which was why his control over spiritual energy was so delicate.
Li Yao looked at Li Jialing's hand and then at his own hand that looked like a chicken's claw. He suddenly grabbed his wrist and shook it hard.
Long Yangjun finally suppressed the surging blood in her body and approached him, only to see that Li Yao was shaking crazily as if he had an electric shock. She asked curiously, "What are you doing?"
"I'm trying to see if I can summon such splendid flames of spiritual energy and make myself look as intimidating as a real dragon."
Li Yao trembled for a long time, and a grey mist that seemed to be shivering and sick rose from his palm. The moment he was distracted, it dispersed into nothingness. He was rather bummed. "Are you kidding me? We all received Wuying Qi's heritage, but Wuying Qi left 99% of his strength and battle experience to Jialing and only left me an uncanny … opportunity to become a ferocious dragon? That's too unfair! "
"Wow!"
Li Jialing stared at the emperor's sword in his hand for a long time in fascination. The sharp blade made of purple flames suddenly fell apart into purple flames and vanished into the void. As if all his strength had been drained, he fell on his knees and vomited hard with a pale face. He vomited a mouthful of deep purple blood that contained black threads, as if countless black worms that had been lurking inside his body had been vomited out.
It was not until all the congested blood was vomited that Li Jialing finally regained his sanity, but he was even more lethargic than before.
He was a young man in his twenties after all. He had been fighting Wuying Qi for a long time, and then he had inherited enormous strength. How could he bear it and control it?
Li Yao hurried to help him up and injected a stream of feeble spiritual energy into his body.
The two of them had both absorbed the enormous energy of the Imperial Fire Pearl and swallowed Wuying Qi's legacy. To some extent, they were of the same origin, and their strength was easy to digest.
Li Jialing exclaimed in a low voice. His eyelids shivering, he mumbled, "What … What happened to me? I seem to have had a very, very long dream. It hurts. My head hurts."
"That's right. We all had a very long nightmare, but now, we're awake."
Li Yao asked solemnly, "Do you still remember who you are and who I am?"
"I am … Li Jialing."
Looking at Li Linghai who was lying not far away, the young man's confusion was replaced by determination again. "You are Brother Yao. We are fighting Wuying Qi. We have defeated Wuying Qi!"
He was so happy that he almost jumped to his feet. His wounds were pulled again, and he couldn't help but exclaim in pain. He couldn't help but touch the wounds, only to touch his own skin that was as smooth as a newborn baby's.
"Have … Have all the golden fur on my body fallen off?"
The young man suddenly realized what was going on. His smile gradually widened in ecstasy. "Not only have we defeated Wuying Qi, but I've also regained my original look! No, my hair has grown a lot longer, mixed with some golden hair. Is this the last trace of the 'Gold Lion'? Huh, Brother Yao, there's a lot of gray in your hair, too! "
"Yes."
Li Yao scratched his hair and said, "It's popular to dye it this year."
"I'm still a bit dizzy. A lot of things have suddenly appeared in my head. A lot of messy, bizarre, and unbelievable things."
Holding his head, Li Jialing crouched into the shape of a baby and mumbled, "I remember. I remember that Brother Yao, Sister Long, and I were fooling Wuying Qi. Then, I was knocked out by him. Then, a lot of things seemed to have happened. I saw a violent black sun and a rising crimson star. Then …
"Then, the black sun was shattered. Countless pieces congregated into a river of black magma that flooded into my brain and burnt up my soul!
"I fell into a place that seemed to be the deepest level of hell. I saw Wuying Qi in the past in the abyss where black flames were flowing, and I saw the whole process of him transforming from a Cultivator into an Immortal Cultivator step by step. In the meantime, a very tempting voice was nagging next to my ears, trying to convince me that the true path of immortality was the right one.
"I was almost trapped. I was really about to be completely trapped. But at the most perilous moment, I vaguely heard someone screaming like a pig being butchered. I had never heard such a horrible sound before. The soul-tearing, wretched feeling was not even as unbearable as the torture in 'Manjusaka, the City in the Sky' in the past."
Li Yao: "… Alright, enough of the details. Why don't you tell me how you feel right now?"
Taking a deep breath, Li Jialing extended his hand again.
Li Yao and Long Yangjun both focused their eyes on his palm.
This time, however hard Li Jialing concentrated, it was impossible for him to trigger the True Dragon Purple Flames anymore.
However, a streak of vague purple dragon-shaped spiritual energy was raging and flowing slowly under the skin of his palm, like a hidden dragon that was lurking below the ice.
Suddenly, a purple light flashed.
"Ah!"
Li Jialing's palm seemed to have been burned. He cried and retreated his hand out of instinct.
When he opened his palm again, he discovered that the raging purple dragon had been melted with his palm, transforming his palm into a brand-new form that was vaguely emitting purple brightness.
"Weird …"
Li Jialing blinked his eyes quickly and said in confusion, "I don't remember that my palm is like this. It's so ostentatious and dominating. I really can't help but want to grab something with my palm. I want to grab all the … stars."
Looking at the anomalies that Li Jialing showed just now and recalling what Wuying Qi 3.0 said to him before he perished, Li Yao's lips twitched.
What was going to happen was going to happen. He couldn't avoid his damn fate. He could only summon his courage and face the challenge head-on!
"Brother Yao, what happened to me exactly?"
Li Jialing clenched his fists in confusion.
"Yes, Li Yao, what happened to you and Li Jialing during the five-minute coma and struggle? Is Wuying Qi really dead?"
Long Yangjun was confused too.
"It's very complicated. Our time is limited. Let's make it short!"
Pondering for a moment, Li Yao said, "When Jialing, Wuying Qi, and I were caught in the final battle, Wuying Qi detonated his soul and split into two different personalities. The bright and righteous personality invaded my brain, and the dark and evil personality invaded Jialing's brain, trying to corrupt our souls and turn us into his successors."
"Wait —"
Long Yangjun raised her hand. "What did you say? The bright and righteous personality invaded your brain and chose you as his successor, and the dark and evil personality invaded Li Jialing's brain and chose the young lion to inherit the sordid, shameless, and depraved things? Are you sure you're not mistaken? Shouldn't it be the other way around? "
"…"
Li Yao glared at Long Yangjun and said angrily, "Of course I'm not mistaken, because the so-called 'bright and righteous' is just an illusion. It's actually even more despicable and evil than despicable!
"All in all, Jialing and I have swallowed part of Wuying Qi's personality, soul, and strength. As for the consequences, let's think on the bright side. We've completely killed him and claimed his legacy without paying any price. The world is at peace again!"
Thinking for a moment, Li Jialing asked, "Then, what about the bad side?"
"The bad side is that, although we've destroyed his soul, we will still be influenced by his personality without us knowing it. We will gradually fall into darkness without knowing it, until we become another Wuying Qi, or even another … Blood God."
Li Yao opened his hands and said, "Of course, there's an even worse possibility. In fact, we've been completely swallowed by Wuying Qi or the Blood God right now, and they've only simulated our way of talking to deceive other people. I may not be the real Li Yao, and you may not be the real Li Yao. Or rather, it's possible that Li Yao and Li Jialing are both disguises, and the real Wuying Qi or the Blood God has already entered Long Yangjun's body."
"Huh?"
Li Jialing was rather shocked. "That … That's too unbelievable. How are we going to test it?
"Don't be scared. It's just slightly unbelievable. I'm only saying it to open your mind."
Li Yao was still in the mood to laugh. "The ultimate, groundless question about 'who am I' can never be verified, and the answer to it will never be found.
"Besides, Wuying Qi or the Blood God are not necessarily the only ones who can do bad things. Even if we're not corrupted by Wuying Qi or the Blood God's power, won't we be lost and corrupted step by step? In many cases, Wuying Qi or the Blood God are just excuses for our own evil thoughts. "
"Wow …"
Li Jialing was rather stunned. "I feel that Brother Yao speaks much more mysteriously after the battle with Wuying Qi. Both your vibe and your level have improved a lot!"
"Of course."
Li Yao opened his fingers and combed his gray hair elegantly. He grinned and said, "So, don't be so hesitant. Life is about constant battles. At the very least, we have won the battle right now. As for what happens in the future, we'll just have to deal with whatever comes our way. Let's just take it as it comes."
As they talked, intense quakes came from the depths of the Gold Crystal Pyramid again.
"Not good! The Gold Crystal Pyramid is still functioning!"
Long Yangjun exclaimed, "But our Colossi have all been damaged. It's impossible to destroy its core anytime soon. What do we do?"
"It's fine. I can control it."
