Chapter 1311 - 1307: Purpose

Kuyi Tulan's face showed a rampant smile.

"Hahaha... Didn't expect it, did you? I too can achieve this Devouring Power!"

Clearly, Kuyi Tulan could completely handle the Shadow Ghost's attack. The blue glow in his eyes continuously transformed into flames, and his flames seemed even more intense.

"I just can't understand." Kuyi Tulan returned to his previous calm state, putting away his arrogance, continuing his monologue.

It seemed like this was his solo performance.

The whole atmosphere was eerie. The Soul Guardians, including Bigas, were unable to move, as if their hands and feet were invisibly locked by Kuyi Tulan. At this moment, they could only watch and listen to everything happening before them and do nothing else. It was a sad situation, but also a helpless one.

Kuyi Tulan's solo act was destined to be anything but ordinary because the enemy he faced never truly revealed itself. Whether this blue monstrous form was a Summoned Creature or a materialized entity, it was beyond Bigas and the others' understanding.

They only saw the two blue monsters biting each other without any damage. The only change in these blue monsters was their size, sometimes increasing, sometimes decreasing. These two Blue Flames burned intensely at times, increasing in size, but would then retract, as if suppressed. The flames rose and fell, hard to determine a victor.

Perhaps this is what Kuyi Tulan called the Devouring Power! Bigas thought.

However, Bigas did not realize that besides Kuyi Tulan's arrogance, there was also a wave of anger within the space.

This concealed emotion was unnoticeable to others, but it was now being exposed, and the previous advantage was disappearing. Soon, this emotion would be fully revealed to everyone.

This was the result of Kuyi Tulan's battle. His incessant babbling stimulated the hidden Shadow Ghost. This too was a demonstration of power, and Kuyi Tulan's arrival thwarted the Shadow Ghost's entire plan, turning what was a secure graveyard conquest into uncertainty. The disparity was substantial.

Kuyi Tulan continued to chatter relentlessly, mocking and provoking, trying to lure the Shadow Ghost to reveal itself.

But the Shadow Ghost was not so easily fooled. Although angry, it was not flustered. It knew what it should and should not do.

"I know this Devouring Power is not all you have. If this is all, then I can simply laugh," Kuyi Tulan remained relaxed, his Blue Flame maintaining its rhythm, neither shrinking nor diminishing, standing firm against the deep blue flame.

"You must hate me, right? Hahaha, ruining all your plans, isn't it catching you off guard? And when you couldn't reach Willem, did you feel a little panicked?"

"Just because you don't speak doesn't mean what I'm saying isn't true. You must know this isn't all I have either!"

From Kuyi Tulan's soliloquy, one could tell he wasn't giving his all. He was waiting for the opponent to fully appear, determined to seize the opportunity to confront the Shadow Ghost.

The deep blue flame across suddenly expanded, seemingly provoked by Kuyi Tulan's words. At this moment, the blue flame creature leapt up, growing larger as it ascended.

The Soul Guardians could feel the scorching heatwave rushing toward them...

But Kuyi Tulan showed no signs of panic. He closed his eyes, with a gentle smile at the corner of his mouth: "This is the moment I've been waiting for!"

Snap, Kuyi Tulan snapped his fingers, and instantly his Blue Flame froze, as if laying itself open for slaughter!

What is happening! This scene left everyone astounded. The once rampant Kuyi Tulan chose to remain motionless in the face of the enemy's fierce attack!

The blue glow in his eyes gradually faded, and the deep blue flame across seemed to find a breakthrough, swallowing Kuyi Tulan's flame. The devoured flame gradually merged into the deep blue flame, and then returned to calm, the original flame form reverting to the blue glow form, the brightness of the glow gradually dimming until it vanished without a trace.

This change suddenly made the Soul Guardians feel an unprecedented pressure, akin to the pressure from those lively dead assaulting their defenses before.

This seemed to indicate that Kuyi Tulan had failed!

Then what was that eerie smile at the end, was it a form of self-mockery seeing himself end this way? The Soul Guardians couldn't understand, but they had no time to ponder because they were also immobile, as if Kuyi Tulan's invisible shackles hadn't been undone.

This further puzzled them because Kuyi Tulan had clearly failed. At this moment, the guy stood there unable to speak or move, completely in a defeated and tragic state!

But why hadn't his invisible shackles been removed?

If the shackles aren't removed, how can they deal with the lively dead who are about to rise again!

This is a serious question! The Soul Guardians were anxious, filled with confusion about the uncertain future...

However, in their anxious wait, they did not notice any abnormal change. It seemed that Kuyi Tulan was still standing there resisting, though they couldn't perceive the nature of this resistance.

No one knew what secret Kuyi Tulan had in his gourd; the whole situation could only be described as bizarre. It seemed that everything was within Kuyi Tulan's plan.

The Soul Guardians could only speculate among themselves but could never read through it. This was not their familiar field; they wouldn't and couldn't discover anything!

Only Kuyi Tulan knew what was happening, because he waited for the moment when the Shadow Ghost was furious enough, he waited for the moment when the Shadow Ghost's true conscious control of Devouring Power attempted to devour him.

He knew that only by communicating with the Shadow Ghost could he take a step further in executing his plan.

He wanted a face-to-face encounter with the Shadow Ghost, not relying on some energy for indirect sparring. He did not need sparring; he wanted results, a resolution, because henceforth, all matters must be under his rule!
