In the Blood Sea, Zhou Chuang's eyes twitched as he listened to Lu Ye's vicious words.
If he were to be captured alive by the enemy and brought to Four Corner Island, where he would be cut into pieces in front of the many cultivators in the galaxy, he would rather die here and be done with it.
He had never seen such a vicious side to Lu Ye before and couldn't help but sigh. The human heart was truly unpredictable. This also proved that Lu Ye was furious that Bai Yue Island had ambushed Tang Jun.
As soon as Lu Ye's voice fell, Chu Zhu's originally dim eyes suddenly surged with boundless anger, followed by a burst of divine light. At the same time, his Spiritual Energy surged out.
Sensing the fluctuations of his opponent's Spiritual Energy, the corners of Lu Ye's mouth curled up into a smile and he immediately opened up his Spiritual Energy.
"Be careful, Fellow Daoist Lu!" Zhou Chuang was alarmed.
When he saw Lu Ye approach Chu Zhu without any precaution, he already had a bad feeling. After all, Chu Zhu was still a late-stage Moon Jade Realm cultivator. What if he suddenly unleashed his full power on the verge of death? When fighting with an enemy, the biggest taboo was to be careless before everything was settled. It was not uncommon for one to fail miserably at an easy task.
Now, it seemed that his worries had come true!
The fluctuations of Chu Zhu's Spiritual Energy undoubtedly meant that he had started a Soul Battle against Lu Ye!
It was undeniable that Lu Ye was very strong, far stronger than an ordinary early-stage Moon Jade Realm cultivator, but that was only in terms of physical strength. As an early-stage Moon Jade Realm cultivator, how strong could his Spiritual Energy be? He was definitely inferior to Chu Zhu.
If Lu Ye couldn't resist Chu Zhu's Soul Battle, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Zhou Chuang was speechless. Lu Ye was still too young. He thought that victory was already in his grasp, so he became arrogant and domineering. If he allowed Lu Ye to turn the tables in the Soul Battle, he would die in vain!
As soon as these words fell, Zhou Chuang's face turned pale because he didn't feel the slightest trace of resistance from Lu Ye. The fierce Spiritual Energy fluctuations just now had disappeared without a trace.
This undoubtedly meant that the Soul Battle had begun. Chu Zhu's Soul Body had already invaded Lu Ye's Spirit Sea. All the dangers were hidden inside the Spirit Sea, so outsiders couldn't sense the slightest movement.
Zhou Chuang hurriedly thought for a moment and said to Ma Shangsi, "Fellow Daoist, please protect me. I'll go and help Fellow Daoist Lu."
Clearly, he also wanted to participate in the Soul Battle. Now that Lu Ye's Divine Soul defenses had been broken through by Chu Zhu, it shouldn't be difficult for his soul to leave his body and enter Lu Ye's Divine Sea. When the time came, he should be able to ensure Lu Ye's safety.
As he spoke, he began to activate his Spiritual Energy.
Ma Shangsi raised her hand to stop him. "Wait!"
Chuang Zhou was stunned for a moment and looked at him in confusion.
Ma Shangsi said, "It's all within the plan. Fellow Daoist, you don't have to worry!"
Zhou Chuang was dumbfounded.
Within the plan? In other words, Lu Ye had already anticipated this?
Zhou Chuang thought about it carefully and quickly found the problem. Even if there was a difference in their cultivation levels, it would not be easy for Chu Zhu to start a Soul Battle against Lu Ye. However, Lu Ye had no intention of defending himself at all. In just an instant, Chu Zhu had broken through his Soul Defense.
Thinking back to how Lu Ye had tortured Chu Zhu, how he had carelessly approached Chu Zhu, and how he had said those vicious words …
Zhou Chuang came to a sudden realization. "Fellow Daoist Lu's previous actions were to force Chu Zhu to start a Soul Battle against him?"
"That's right!" Ma Shangsi nodded.
Zhou Chuang was confused. "But … why?"
Why would he start a Soul Battle? Was there any benefit in doing so? Could it be that Lu Ye was so vicious that he not only wanted to torture Chu Zhu on a physical level but also on a Divine Soul level?
That was far too vicious!
Zhou Chuang faintly felt that things weren't that simple. However, since Ma Shangsi said that this was all within the plan, he had nothing to worry about.
Since Lu Ye dared to do this, he definitely had confidence in himself.
Looking at it now, Lu Ye did not start a Soul Battle himself because he did not have the confidence to break through Chu Zhu's Soul Defense. Therefore, he forced Chu Zhu to make the first move. In this way, as long as he did not defend himself, the Soul Battle would naturally succeed.
At this moment, inside Lu Ye's Divine Sea, Chu Zhu's Soul Body was holding a sword-like Soul Treasure. He had originally planned to cause a ruckus here and let Lu Ye know the consequences of underestimating him. However, when he looked over, he saw a Divine Lotus in Lu Ye's Divine Sea. It was blooming with seven-colored light. Even his Soul Body, a foreign Soul Body, felt comfortable in the light.
What was that?
Although Chu Zhu did not know what it was, he immediately realized that the Divine Lotus was an incredible Soul Treasure!
What shocked him wasn't just the Seven Colored Divine Lotus, it was the fact that a tattered ship had suddenly emerged from the waves in front of the Divine Lotus, and it lay before him.
In the blink of an eye, the dilapidated ship became whole again. Not only that, but there were also many figures on the ship, each taking their own position. On the deck, Lu Ye's soul stood there quietly, looking over from afar with an indifferent gaze, as if he was looking at an ant!
What was that?
He had seen many Soul Treasures, but what he saw today was shocking and beyond his imagination!
While he was still thinking, Lu Ye waved his hand and the ship rushed towards Chu Zhu's Soul Body. As it moved, the ship's array buzzed and many attacks fell from the sky.
This Soul Battle had only lasted for half a cup of tea's time. After Chu Zhu saw the terror of the Specter Ship, he wanted to escape. However, since he had entered, how could it be so easy to leave?
He could easily break through Lu Ye's Soul Defense because Lu Ye did not put up any defense. It did not mean that Lu Ye's Soul Defense was weak.
Now that his Divine Sea was sealed, it was like beating a dog behind closed doors.
After his physical body was tortured, Chu Zhu's Soul Body was also covered in wounds. After half a cup of tea's time, his Soul Treasure sword shattered and his Soul Body became dim.
On the Specter Ship, Lu Ye captured Chu Zhu's Soul Body with a cold expression.
Ambushing Chu Zhu, tormenting him, and inducing him to start a Soul Battle. It was all for this moment!
Soul Control!
Since he wanted to conquer Baiyue Island from the inside, he naturally had to start from the inside. Lu Ye had long planned to use the power of Soul Control to enslave the people of Baiyue Island. Only then could he destroy the island's protective array.
Ordinary Constellation Realm cultivators were not his target. His target was the few Yue Yao of Baiyue Island.
In the past, Lu Ye had used Soul Control to enslave Dao Shisan and a cultivator from the Blood Refinement Realm. However, Dao Shisan lacked intelligence, and the cultivators from the Blood Refinement Realm were not strong, so it was not difficult to control them.
However, if he wanted to use Soul Control to enslave a late-stage Yue Yao with his current cultivation level, it would be extremely difficult.
Under normal circumstances, it was basically impossible to succeed. Even though Soul Control had been deduced by the Talent Tree, its effects had become stronger than before.
Therefore, he had to wear down Chu Zhu's willpower to the lowest level.
This was the fundamental reason why Lu Ye had first tortured him physically, then ravaged him in the soul battle. Suffering both physically and mentally, it could be said that Chu Zhu's willpower had fallen to its lowest point.
Only then could he use Soul Control!
After calming himself down, Lu Ye raised his hand and pressed it against Chu Zhu's Soul Body. Under the activation of the Soul Control Divine Rune, it enveloped Chu Zhu's Soul Body.
If he succeeded, conquering Baiyue Island would be a piece of cake. This was because Chu Zhu would become his spy in Baiyue Island. With such a spy, Baiyue Island's protective array would be useless!
Under the envelopment of the light, Chu Zhu's exhausted Soul Body seemed to have no reaction. Just when Lu Ye felt that everything was going smoothly, Chu Zhu's resistance suddenly came. Moreover, it was unprecedentedly fierce.
Although Chu Zhu didn't know what Lu Ye was doing, as the Soul Control Divine Rune continued to take effect, he faintly realized what was going on.
This guy was an extremely unyielding person. This could be seen from the previous battle. Even though he had been tortured to the point of no return, he hadn't begged for mercy.
How could such a person be willing to become someone else's slave?
Under the stimulation of the Soul Control Divine Rune, Chu Zhu's willpower, which had already been worn down, started to boil again. As he furiously resisted, he gritted his teeth and growled, "You want to enslave me? Give up. Even if I die, I won't let you have your way! "
As soon as he finished speaking, cracking sounds could be heard. Lu Ye suddenly discovered that Chu Zhu's Soul Body was showing signs of shattering.
This was undoubtedly a sign that Chu Zhu's Soul Body was about to collapse.
If he didn't give up, Chu Zhu's Soul Body would definitely shatter. However, if he gave up, then all his previous efforts would have been in vain.
Lu Ye couldn't help but sigh. It had still come to this.
Before coming up with this plan, he had already predicted that this would happen. Yue Yao's willpower was very strong in the later stages. Even though he had set up a perfect foundation, he still couldn't plant the Soul Control Divine Rune in Chu Zhu's Soul Body.
Fortunately, he had a backup plan. However, this backup plan was slightly more risky than enslaving Chu Zhu. Moreover, Lu Ye didn't want to do this unless it was absolutely necessary.
This was because he was traumatized by what he was about to do next …
One Point of Spiritual Connection!
If the Soul Control Divine Rune didn't work, then he could only use One Point of Spiritual Connection to pry into Chu Zhu's memories. Ever since he had done this in the Blood Refinement Realm, Lu Ye hadn't done it again. This was because it didn't feel good to have so many complicated memories flooding into another person's mind.
One Point of Spiritual Connection had also been derived from the Talent Tree.
Seeing that Chu Zhu's Soul Body was showing signs of shattering, Lu Ye didn't hesitate any longer. He steeled his heart and transformed the Soul Control Divine Rune into One Point of Spiritual Connection.
In an instant, a lot of complicated information flooded into Lu Ye, causing him to feel a splitting headache.
At the same time, Chu Zhu also sensed many of Lu Ye's memories and secrets. Under such a huge impact, his already cracked Soul Body couldn't bear the burden, and the speed at which it shattered increased.
After a short while, as Chu Zhu's Soul Body completely shattered, Lu Ye stood up shakily. He felt very uncomfortable.
He secretly decided that no matter what, he would never use this method again. This was simply inhumane.
Lu Ye wasn't in a hurry to leave the Divine Sea. His Soul Body sat cross-legged on the Specter Ship. A lot of complicated information flowed through his mind as Lu Ye began to search for useful information.
