Chapter 1143: Chapter 1084: Sudden Change

Looking at the fiery red plant emitting an incredibly rich treasure-like aura before him, Ye Chen’s eyes glimmered.

After observing closely for a few moments, Ye Chen’s left hand moved slightly, while his right hand directly formed a giant divine power palm, reaching for the fiery red plant.

At the moment Ye Chen’s divine power giant palm touched the fiery red plant, something unexpected happened.

Whoosh!

From within the fiery red plant, something dark blue shot out at an unimaginable speed, directly flying toward Ye Chen’s mind.

This dark blue thing was aiming to directly invade Ye Chen’s mind!

If it were anyone else, even a Divine Master Overlord, perhaps they wouldn’t be able to stop this dark blue thing from invading their mind.

But no one noticed that at the instant Ye Chen grasped the fiery red plant with his right hand, his subtly moving left hand had already grasped a scroll and activated it.

This scroll was, astonishingly, the highest reward Ye Chen received after winning first place in the Stellar Domain Genius Battle—a Cosmic Emperor-level life-saving scroll.

Boom!

At the moment the dark blue thing was about to invade Ye Chen’s mind at an incredible speed, a brilliant starry light shot out from the life-saving scroll in Ye Chen’s left hand, directly immobilizing the dark blue thing in the void, unable to move!

It must be known that each of the three levels of life-saving scrolls is crafted by the strongest experts of their respective realms, possessing the combat power of the pinnacle experts.

A Divine Master-level life-saving scroll equates to the life-saving power of a ninth-level Divine Master realm.

The Overlord-level life-saving scroll equates to the life-saving power of a Greater Tribulation Overlord realm.

As for the Cosmic Emperor-level life-saving scroll in Ye Chen’s hand, it surpasses the Third Star Tribulation and reaches a peak level Cosmic Emperor’s life-saving power!

This power.

Can even help Ye Chen withstand an attack from another peak-level Cosmic Emperor for a moment.

Faced with the suddenly flying dark blue thing, even though this dark blue thing appeared terrifying, it was no match for the life-saving scroll in Ye Chen’s hand!

Awoo...

When the dark blue thing was immobilized in the void, a sound of frantic struggle came from within, followed by horrifying howls that were as demonic and human-like.

As Ye Chen focused his gaze on the dark blue thing, he widened his eyes directly.

This dark blue thing was actually a collection of countless starlike points gathered together into a fearful entity; upon closer inspection, inside each starlike point, there seemed to be a terrifying soul.

The entire dark blue thing seemed to be countless terrifying souls gathered together.

Just now, so many terrifying souls intended to invade Ye Chen’s mind!

While Ye Chen was observing the dark blue thing, among the countless terrifying souls, the strongest soul formed into a horrifying human face during its frantic movements.

This face was battered and looked as if it had suffered great trauma in life; it looked at Ye Chen with an incredulous expression, shouting, "Impossible, how can a mere Heavenly Divine Venerable resist my Ten Thousand Souls Life-seizing Divine Skills?!"

Ten Thousand Souls Life-seizing Divine Skills?

Upon hearing the shout from the terrifying human face formed by the soul, Ye Chen’s eyes remained unwaveringly calm.

Before grasping the fiery red plant, Ye Chen had long sensed something amiss.

Earlier, Ye Chen had activated the Tai Yu Chapter of the Primordial Star Scripture to sense the Space Star Aperture in the Chaos Ghost Mist Realm. Although he couldn’t sense the specific situation in the pit, Ye Chen inexplicably sensed a strong soul aura emanating from within.

After entering the pit and killing the never-seen-before black demon bat, Ye Chen only saw a humanoid skeleton, without seeing anything else.

Ye Chen had even thoroughly investigated the humanoid skeleton, finding no soul aura hidden within it.

Under such circumstances, Ye Chen was naturally extremely vigilant about the fiery red plant.

That’s why he preemptively activated the life-saving scroll.

Otherwise, he might not have had time to fend off the attack from the dark blue thing.

As a result, just as Ye Chen had previously detected, within the fiery red plant emitting an incredibly rich treasure aura, there was actually a hidden dark blue cluster formed from countless terrifying souls, intending to invade Ye Chen’s mind.

The actions of these countless terrifying souls were both familiar and strange to Ye Chen.

Familiar because Ye Chen had heard and seen before the soul body-snatching methods; a single strong soul could even directly invade a weak person’s mind, kill their soul, and completely take over their body.

Ye Chen had even practiced related secret techniques before; both body-snatching secret techniques and soul-searching secret skills were highly associated with such soul attacks.

However, what Ye Chen didn’t expect was that he encountered not just a single soul’s body-snatching but a large cluster of countless souls’ body-snatching!

And from what the horrifying human face formed by the strongest soul said, this body-snatching method was something Ye Chen had never heard of—a method called Ten Thousand Souls Life-seizing Divine Skills!

Even if he knew nothing about this divine skill, Ye Chen understood from the name that if he had been careless earlier and let the dark blue thing invade his mind, it’s highly possible that his soul would have been destroyed, dying here in the Chaos Ghost Mist!

Danger.

Truly exceedingly dangerous!

"Ten Thousand Souls Life-seizing Divine Skills, what kind of magic is it?"

"Why then did you appear in this Chaos Ghost Mist?"

Ye Chen looked at the eerie blue light sphere trapped in the void by the Life-saving Scroll and coldly asked the terrifying face inside.

Facing such a stranger intending to kill him, Ye Chen naturally didn’t show a good expression!

"Ga ga."

Upon hearing Ye Chen’s stern questioning, the terrifying face glanced at Ye Chen coldly: "You, a mere Heavenly Divine Venerable, dare to question me, the Great Emperor?"

"Looking at what you’ve used to bind me, it obviously has an energy limit. Once the energy is exhausted, let’s see where you, a mere Heavenly Divine Venerable, can run to."

"If my physical body hadn’t been destroyed in the Thirteenth Chaos Zone, someone like you could never hope to bind me!"

Speaking finally, the terrifying face seemed extremely unwilling, starting to struggle violently in the void. With its struggle, countless terrifying faces formed from other flickering souls, crazily struggling.

The countless souls danced, even causing the confinement to shake violently.

However, fortunately, the Life-saving Scroll in Ye Chen’s hand was the highest level Cosmic Emperor peak scroll, and the struggle of these soul beings couldn’t break free in a short time.

Ye Chen ignored the tough talk of the terrifying face, as the words just spoken caused a ripple in his mind and spirit.

"Great Emperor? Could this soul be that of a Cosmic Emperor?"

"Previously, only a Cosmic Emperor could enter the Thirteenth Chaos Zone, perhaps it truly is the soul of a Cosmic Emperor!"

Thinking that he might have bound a Cosmic Emperor’s soul, Ye Chen’s mind and spirit surged violently.

If it weren’t for the Life-saving Scroll in his hand being able to control this thing, and Ye Chen discovering that the remaining power of this Cosmic Emperor’s soul is at most peak Overlord level or a weaker Cosmic Emperor level, Ye Chen would have found it hard to remain calm.

After his mind and spirit calmed down after a few beats, Ye Chen fixed his gaze on the numerous struggling souls in the void, directly fixating on the most powerful and terrifying face, and said again: "Great Emperor?"

"If you hadn’t tried to kill me, perhaps I would have called you senior."

"Since you wanted to kill me, do you think I would spare you?"

"Even if you don’t tell me what the Ten Thousand Souls Life-seizing Divine Skills are, or why you appeared in the Ghost Mist, do you think that after I thoroughly refine your soul, I wouldn’t understand?"

Ye Chen’s calm words made the strongest terrifying face show an incomparably frightened expression in an instant.

After that, as if recalling something, it laughed madly: "You, a mere Heavenly Divine Venerable, want to refine my soul, utterly ignorant!"

Just as the terrifying face wanted to ridicule Ye Chen once more, its mad laughter suddenly turned into a tone of sheer terror: "No!"

At this moment, looking towards Ye Chen, it saw the endless divine light releasing from Ye Chen’s hand.

This endless divine light was the fearsome Cosmic Emperor power from the Life-saving Scroll!

Ye Chen could sense that there was definitely a great secret hidden within this terrifying soul, and Ye Chen could further sense that the fire-red plant that flew out from the side of this eerie blue soul held even greater secrets!

Even though the eerie blue soul flew out of the fire-red plant, the rich treasure aura inside the fire-red plant did not diminish at all.

Clearly, a great treasure was hidden inside, while the eerie blue soul merely borrowed the treasure aura to conceal itself!

Facing such situations, in addition to this soul intent on killing him, Ye Chen was certainly determined to expend the Life-saving Scroll and kill these souls in the field, to uncover their secrets and the secrets within the fire-red plant!

Ye Chen wasn’t just bluffing the terrifying face.

Having long practiced Soul Searching Secret Skills and possessing countless tactics, Ye Chen obviously had ways to obtain the secrets of these souls!

Ye Chen had also considered that the power expended from the Life-saving Scroll to fully refine these souls was still within his endurance.

Under these circumstances, Ye Chen certainly wouldn’t waste any more words with these arrogant souls!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

While Ye Chen activated the Life-saving Scroll’s power towards the eerie blue light sphere, his Primordial Star Scripture, Tai Yu Chapter’s divine power moved simultaneously.

Unexpectedly, astonishing things happened.

Witnessed only as the unmatched power from the Life-saving Scroll shot into the eerie blue light sphere, within, countless flickering souls were directly separated and then, under Ye Chen’s Tai Yu Chapter divine power, astonishingly drawn into individual special spaces!

This kind of space turned out to be an origin power space that only form through Ye Chen’s practice of Tai Yu Chapter!

This space, Ye Chen had long comprehended, belonged to the universe’s most mysterious kinds of Space Law, inclusive of Zi Ji Star Lord’s insights into space.

If it were living people, perhaps Ye Chen would struggle, but these souls, far below the Star Lord Realm, entirely at Ye Chen’s mercy, certainly couldn’t break free from the binding of Ye Chen’s origin power space!

Ye Chen directly used the Life-saving Scroll’s power to wholly suppress the human face formed by numerous souls into soul form, capturing them all into individual origin power spaces!

Even the most powerful terrifying face claimed as a peak presence among Cosmic Emperors screamed in plea, reduced to primitive soul state by Ye Chen, and captured into one of the origin power spaces!

Subsequently, Ye Chen enveloped his soul with the Life-saving Scroll’s power, employing Soul Searching Secret Skills, first aiming to search the soul of the weakest one!
