Ye Ji was stunned in an instant!
The power of Brain Deficient was on par with his, yet he had exploded on the spot!
Such an unforeseen event was something he had never anticipated!
You see, this time, he had relied on the fusion of numerous desolate beast blood energies to cast the extreme Yin Ice, an ice that could freeze everything and was extremely powerful. Even Xiang Beifei had been frozen, but he burst out of the ice and killed Brain Deficient straightaway!
This started to panic him.
Xiang Beifei shattered the Yin Ice around him, with black and white flames burning on his body, along with a stone tower that emerged in front of him. The tower had nine layers, and each layer manifested flames, ancient and time-worn.
An ability from the Gathering Spirit Book's Wei Constellation.
Originally, the stone tower had flames on the second to eighth layers, while the flames on the first and ninth layers seemed to have been extinguished.
But now, the spiritual power that became the black and white flames on Xiang Beifei's body lit up the first and ninth layers of the stone tower. As the flames on each layer rekindled, there was no change to the tower; its aura withdrew inward, and it still appeared as an unadorned, plain tower on the outside.
But it was this very stone tower that had withstood the attack of Yin Ice!
Xiang Beifei looked up indifferently, gazing at the horrified Ye Ji in front of him, and once again raised the blunt sword in his hands!
The sword rose through the air, a rainbow descending like thunder!
Ye Ji's complexion had completely changed, the terrifying Sword Qi made him feel as if he was plunged into an ice cellar, and he desperately drove the blood energy inside of him, trying to cast Yin Ice again to deal with Xiang Beifei.
Yin Ice's black cold air once again enveloped the area, coalescing into layers of frost. This time it was placed in front of himself, intending to block that Sword Qi!
However, Xiang Beifei's white Sword Qi, like a long river falling from the ninth heaven and covered in black and white flames, cut down fiercely. The solidified black frost cracked like brittle skin under its slash.
Ye Ji shouted in horror, trying to dodge the sword, but casting Yin Ice had drained him of too much blood energy, and at this point, he couldn't dodge at all. He could only watch helplessly as the sword landed on his head!
Xiang Beifei's sword split Ye Ji in half!
The cloven Ye Ji's throat moved, but he couldn't utter a word. Soon after, the Ri An beast he controlled seemed to sense something, its crimson eyes turning insanely wild. A yellow tentacle swept out from the Ri An beast's body, entangling Ye Ji and swallowing him whole!
The Meat-Winged Monster that controlled the cursed water, once deceased, would become part of the cursed water, as if cursed, forever unable to escape.
Ye Ji, just like Ri An, ended up being consumed by the backlash of the cursed water!
After Ye Ji's death, the cursed water went out of control. The monsters sealed inside began to fight for dominance, killing each other. This was a peculiar situation, as if they were tearing each other apart behind a thin yellow membrane of water.
Ye Ji had just been swept in, and at this time, he still maintained the last shred of consciousness—he was the only one among those desolate beasts who still had his own will. But his consciousness was fading, struggling to push away those maddened desolate beasts. However, more and more beasts grabbed hold of him, tearing at him, ripping apart the last bit of his consciousness.
In a mere moment, Ye Ji was completely assimilated by the cursed desolate beasts, losing his consciousness and turning into a frenzied cursed monster, starting to fight for control over that out-of-control cursed water.
The cursed water fell from the sky, smashing onto the ground, corroding a hole into the soil underneath. They kept shifting shapes, rolling around, and various ferocious beasts continued to seize the initiative, only to be suppressed by another beast.
The cursed water soon merged into the river, swallowing all of the river water and drying it up in an instant.
Xiang Beifei frowned, he waved his sword, and black and white spiritual power swept out, instantly enveloping the cursed water and isolating it, lifting it into the air.
"This cursed water is a bit strange."
After pondering for a moment, Xiang Beifei thought that if his current spiritual power wasn't special, he probably would've been consumed by the cursed water as well.
His mind stirred, and Sword Qi surged out once again, directly suppressing the cursed water.
"Xiaohei, see if you can refine it into a spiritual power crystal."
Xiang Beifei turned to call out to Xiaohei.
Xiaohei quickly leapt into the air, examining the cursed water. Even though it had already been compressed much smaller than before, the cursed beasts inside were still struggling and roaring.
It exhaled a bubble that enveloped the cursed water. Then, the bubble began to squeeze, trying to compress it further.
However, Xiaohei soon let out a surprised bark and scratched its head with a little paw.
"No way?" Xiang Beifei asked.
Xiaohei shook its head.
Brain Deficient's red tentacles couldn't block Xiang Beifei's Wufeng because it was considered a Priestly incarnation. Although it held the power of Heavenly Connection, the incarnation was condensed from spiritual power, so when faced with Wufeng, a slash would sever it.
But the cursed water wasn't like a spiritual power entity; it was a very peculiar existence. At least, it was able to withstand Wufeng just now, which was why Xiaohei couldn't refine it into a spiritual power crystal.
Remembering the scene of Ye Ji controlling the cursed water, Xiang Beifei seemed unsurprised.
"That's the cursed water from the Moon Realm, a naturally occurring substance. It's normal for it to block Wufeng."
