Those were countless souls!
Countless souls wronged and perished in the hands of Demon Lord Yan Mo!
Bound, sealed, imprisoned by the power of Demon Lord Yan Mo's path, they had been turned into nourishment for his power!
But now...
A storm erupted, tearing apart the power of Demon Lord Yan Mo's path that had imprisoned these pitiful souls for countless years!
These tormented souls finally gained liberation!
"What?" The doppelgänger of Demon Lord Yan Mo was truly shocked!
"How is this possible? You... you... you!!!" The doppelgänger of Demon Lord Yan Mo struggled to form coherent words.
Wang Luffy at the Nascent Soul Initial Stage...
Actually shattered the restraints of his path's imprisonment?
How could this be?
But an even more astonishing scene unfolded once again!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Those countless black and gray hands that were attacking Wang Luffy, once their shells were torn apart, revealed numerous souls that had been freed!
In the next moment...
These countless souls, within the storm, simultaneously transformed into...
Countless stars!
The world that had been covered by the ink-black light barrier!
The Yan Mo World created by the doppelgänger of Demon Lord Yan Mo!
At this moment, illuminated by these countless stars, the originally dark world turned as bright as day!
In an instant, Wang Luffy raised his right fist!
Within the reflection-like world under Wang Luffy's feet, countless stars emerged!
The countless stars that had been liberated also radiated their brilliance!
The light of these countless stars converged like a surging tide onto Wang Luffy's right fist!
The power of the path!
"With this punch, I fight for them!!!" With a flash of the Starry Wing on his back, Wang Luffy appeared right in front of the doppelgänger of Demon Lord Yan Mo's chest and unleashed a punch!
The previous punch Wang Luffy threw earlier directly pierced through the doppelgänger of Demon Lord Yan Mo's body without harming it!
However, this time...
"Puh!" The doppelgänger of Demon Lord Yan Mo's chest was blown apart by Wang Luffy's punch!
"Crack! Crack! Crack!" As his body gradually disintegrated, the doppelgänger of Demon Lord Yan Mo's shockedly staggered back several steps.
"You dare to kill my doppelgänger?" The doppelgänger of Demon Lord Yan Mo couldn't believe it, that he, would actually be killed by a single punch from Wang Luffy?
"Killing your doppelgänger is just the beginning!"
"Soon, I will find your true self! And utterly defeat you!!!"
...
Wang Luffy roared with great dominance!
"Fine, I'll be waiting for you! In the domain of Demon Lord Yan Mo, I've set up the most powerful formation to wait for you to throw yourself to your death!!!" The doppelgänger of Demon Lord Yan Mo's expression turned vicious as he spat out his final threat, then vanished with a crisp sound!
As the doppelgänger of Demon Lord Yan Mo met its tragic end, the black light barrier that shrouded this space shattered and dissipated like glass.
"You're free now!!!" Wang Luffy raised his head and looked at the souls that were once tormented and imprisoned by the doppelgänger of Demon Lord Yan Mo's power, now surrounding him. He spoke gently.
"Thank you..."
"Thank you..."
"Child... Thank you..."
...
These countless souls, after whispering voices that only Wang Luffy could hear, slowly dissipated one by one. They could finally disappear peacefully, free from suffering.
"Crack!" Wang Luffy clenched his right fist.
"Yan Mo Temple, Demon Lord Yan Mo!" Wang Luffy murmured.
"I will definitely defeat you and save the world you've ruled! Therefore, I must completely master the power of the path!" Wang Luffy lowered his head and looked at his hands.
Faintly, an unusual star-like breeze gently flowed on Wang Luffy's hands.
Wang Luffy wanted to condense this power, but it seemed to exist and yet not exist, elusive and intangible!
However, the power of the path he just exhibited was undeniably strong, a power that even the doppelgänger of Demon Lord Yan Mo, whom not even the Fifth Intents could reach, couldn't resist!
"Exactly! There are so many small fries here, I can use them to practice!" Wang Luffy suddenly brightened, locking onto the Foundation Establishment realm experts around him...
Meanwhile...
"You're indeed powerful! But you should also be aware that you can never defeat my true self!" On the southern front of the battlefield, a figure exuding a terrifying aura slowly spoke.
It was the Number 4 of the Black Robe Sect.
Across from the Number 4 of the Black Robe Sect was Ling Tianyu, his body covered in blood and scars.
Even though he controlled six Grand Completion Intents!
Even though he received special guidance and epic-level enhancements from He Yiming!
The gap between the doppelgänger of a Nascent Divinity powerhouse and its true self was simply too immense!
Ling Tianyu had exhausted all his means and gave his all in the battle!
Up until now, he hadn't managed to harm the flesh of the Number 4 of the Black Robe Sect even once.
"You, what are you planning?" The Number 4 of the Black Robe Sect was also puzzled.
The present Ling Tianyu was indeed formidable. So young, his bone age couldn't be over a hundred years! Yet he could force out many of his secret techniques and ultimate moves!
He could even contend with the Number 4 of the Black Robe Sect up to this point!
Truly defying the heavens!
However, even without him saying it, as long as Ling Tianyu wasn't a fool, he should know that he could never defeat him!
Then...
Such a talented Ling Tianyu, why was he confronting him? Was it just to seek death?
"Did He Yiming send this person to probe me? Hmph, it's a pity, within my domain, all senses are blocked! If he wants to use this person to deplete my strength, that's simply nonsense!"
"As a Nascent Divinity powerhouse who controls the power of the path, my power is infinite as long as my path remains unyielding!"
"So..."
"He Yiming, what exactly is your intention?"
...
The Number 4 of the Black Robe Sect was puzzled.
"Forget it! I'll kill you first, then think about the rest later!" The Number 4 of the Black Robe Sect spoke lightly.
Within his own domain, he was the absolute ruler!
If He Yiming wanted to act, he had to break through the barrier of his domain's power first!
That was equivalent to directly clashing head-on against him as a Nascent Divinity powerhouse!
Regardless of whether He Yiming could break through the barrier of his domain or not, he would be able to sense it!
In other words, it was impossible for He Yiming to save people from his grasp!
"He Yiming's doppelgänger is too weak. If he wants to save someone, his true self must personally take action! Haha, I'll kill your disciple now. Let's see if your true self will intervene!" The Number 4 of the Black Robe Sect laughed coldly.
No matter what He Yiming was plotting.
This exceptionally talented Ling Tianyu, He Yiming would absolutely not let him die.
As long as he controlled Ling Tianyu as a hostage, He Yiming would obediently comply!
It's a classic case of wisdom backfiring!
"Ah!!!" Accompanied by a tragic scream, with a single strike, the Number 4 of the Black Robe Sect inflicted heavy injuries on Ling Tianyu, rendering him completely defenseless.
"Smack!" In the next moment, the Number 4 of the Black Robe Sect reached out and seized Ling Tianyu's neck.
"Now, your life and death are in my hands!"
"Haha, He Yiming of 2.4, you truly are a foolish guy!"
"With this exceptional disciple of yours in my hands, I'd like to see what you can do!"
...
The Number 4 of the Black Robe Sect laughed in triumph.
However, Ling Tianyu also chuckled with satisfaction!
"You've finally fallen into the trap!" Ling Tianyu suddenly said in a bizarre manner.
"?" The Number 4 of the Black Robe Sect was taken aback. Before he could react, an automatic sealing formation activated on Ling Tianyu's chest.
Within the sealing formation was an astonishing power!
"False Divine Ability... Star Shift!"
With Ling Tianyu's low chant, a flash of light!
"!" When the Number 4 of the Black Robe Sect opened his eyes, he found himself and Ling Tianyu already in a different location.
A place that seemed quite familiar.
"Welcome, my friend!"
A melodious voice rang out.
The Number 4 of the Black Robe Sect turned around abruptly, only to see a figure.
He Yiming!
