Chapter 1149: Chapter 331: Soul Capturing—Old Yue, Fengdu Lies Deep Within the Netherworld; King Hunter Killer, You’re in Big Trouble
However, Li Che did not throw the insightful Yan Jing to the other soul-capturing beings to be devoured, to transform into the power of the other soul-capturing beings.
After all, Yan Jing himself was a Peak of Qi Sea Martial Saint, only a thread away from the Mountain Climbing Path. Given an opportunity, finding an unwise soul capturer to feed him could also allow Yan Jing to grow into a formidable ally.
Currently, under Li Che’s command, the Martial Saints include Su Leibao, Su Daoling, Yellow Sword Wine, You Liqing, and the Dragon Queen Consort, making five Venerables, plus Yan Jing, making it six Venerables.
This lineup is already no weaker than some lower-ranked Divine Sects.
However, compared to the Qian Yuan Divine Sect, there’s still some gap.
Mainly because one Lv Taibai can hold off too many strong ones, and there’s also Fang Hanshu, the Dajing Tenth-Rank Scholar, whose depth is unknown and limit is unseen.
Li Che’s current soul-capturing power still falls short of matching the Qian Yuan Divine Sect.
However, if Old Yue could obediently submit…
It would no longer be certain.
Li Che’s gaze turned to the rain of blood flying in the air.
With a grasp of his five fingers, a powerful suction erupted, and immediately countless fragmented pieces of blood and flesh flew toward him, including the top-level Qiankun Jade of Yue Huanglong.
Even during such battles, it was only damaged, but not shattered.
Yue Huanglong’s blood and flesh shattered into pieces, the blood rain continuously splattered, and the disappearance of the Heaven and Earth Soul signified his complete demise.
Since he had died…
Li Che could attempt the soul capture.
One must say, Li Che was still quite concerned and valued it, after all, Yue Huanglong’s cultivation was truly strong. If the soul capture succeeded, it would mean having a formidable ally capable of touching the top-level peak realm.
After all, Yue Huanglong’s full body of fat was his top-level peak reserve!
After becoming a soul capturer, Yue Huanglong could burn fat without restraint and then gallantly die in battle…
After death, the burnt fat would return, once again becoming a good fighter!
Therefore…
Li Che’s eyes glowed with a golden smoke reminiscent of sinking incense.
In the respectful and awe-filled gaze of Yan Jing’s soul capture.
He spread his five fingers wide, aiming at Yue Huanglong’s all-encompassing corpse that was splattering all around…
“Soul Return—”
“Soul Capture!”
The deep voice, like an elder’s deep chant during an ancient sacrificial ceremony, opened the gateway of death, allowing the departed soul to break free from the underworld’s chains and return anew!
Clang clang—
It sounded like extremely cold chains crashing, akin to someone shackled and slowly walking from the depths of darkness.
Over the sky of Mo City, an enormous black hole appeared.
That black hole…
Was truly too dark, as if it would siphon all light and heat.
No light could remain within, all would be devoured and erased!
Even as the soul capturer, Li Che couldn’t help but narrow his eyes, staring at the black vortex.
Within the black vortex, strands of incredibly fine and seemingly alive threads fell down, slowly intertwining.
They seemed to weave a sweater, as if there was a pre-existing pattern, recondensing a body upon it.
In just a moment, the chubby and endearing figure of Yue Huanglong was condensed again.
Like ink gathering together, it completely solidified into a mass!
The terrifying aura and breath, like a storm, constantly swept out, booming and impacting the surroundings, as if the entire Mo City was gently trembling!
And Li Che’s eyes slightly narrowed.
For the first time, he saw an unusual phenomenon.
Black as ink chains wrapped around Yue Huanglong’s hands and feet, their massive size shackling him, making escape impossible!
Li Che frowned slightly.
Why were there chains?
The soul captures before never had such situations…
Could it be because Yue Huanglong’s cultivation had reached the Martial Saint Four Transformations, the reason being he was a Great God strong enough for Life Head Transformation?
Li Che sensed Yue Huanglong’s aura was still at the First-class Peak, not maintaining the state of burning fat to forcibly open the Heavenly Gate, receiving Heavenly Gate Divinity infusion to reach the top-level peak aura.
However, this was within Li Che’s expectations.
Suspended in midair, Yue Huanglong slowly floated, after an unknown duration, slowly opened his eyes.
Even on his endearingly foolish face, a hint of bewilderment and…
Incredulity appeared!
He lived again!
Couldn’t believe it!
This was the underworld’s means!
Feeling the numerous pieces of feedback in his mind, Yue Huanglong’s full cheeks wobbled slightly, and a smile appeared on his face.
“He who knows the times is a wise man.”
“Old Yue, pays respects to the lord!”
Yue Huanglong said, smiling.
He accepted it extraordinarily calmly; if he had any backbone, he could choose not to submit, could stand and die.
But Yue Huanglong… was just a spineless old fox.
He only wanted to live!
Becoming a soul capturer still offered a chance to live on!
Even if it was in another way, even if it meant submitting to Li Che at all times, what did that matter?
As an imperial official, even if Yue Huanglong did not submit to Li Che, he would have to submit to the Emperor of Dajing.
Either way, there was submission, what difference did it make?
Submitting to Li Che allowed him to survive, not submitting… would be to taste true death.
Yue Huanglong was an old fox, a smart man, so he naturally chose the correct path.
Seeing the unobstructed, immediately submissive Yue Huanglong.
A flicker of unusual color passed through Li Che’s eyes.
His mood couldn’t help but brighten.
