The twisted expression on the handsome face suddenly eased as he said, “I’m not giving up.”

Following that, the twisted expression appeared again as he said, “Feng Qing Yang, I know what you’re thinking. Do you think I’m unaware that your soul is getting stronger? Do you think you can escape from me after becoming a Lord of Gods? How naive! Do you think it’s so easy? I’m sure you’ve noticed that your soul has stopped growing stronger, right? Did you think it’s a bottleneck?”

The sinister and twisted expression looked out of place on the handsome face. It was as though the soul in the body did not match the physical body.

The sinister expression eased again. “It was you?”

After possessing Feng Qing Yang’s body in the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven, Mi Xuan could have killed Feng Qing Yang even if there would be a small backlash. However, he did not kill Feng Qing Yang until now because he was greedy for Feng Qing Yang’s knowledge and possessions. In his opinion, Feng Qing Yang must have had many fortuitous encounters in the Asure Hell. Otherwise, how could a rudimentary King of Gods become an advanced King of Gods who was on the brink of becoming a Lord of Gods in such a short time? Moreover, he was certain Feng Qing Yang knew secrets about the Asura Hell considering how Feng Qing Yang had gone there several times and survived.

Mi Xuan replied indifferently, “That’s right. I ordered my men to set up a Forbidden Soul Formation here two months ago. You should know that the inhabitants of the Land of the Dead are mostly soul-like entities. No one in the world knows more about souls than the inhabitants here. Feng Qing Yang, your knowledge about the soul can’t compare to mine at all. Moreover, have you forgotten that I was once the Clan Leader of the Phantom clan?”

This time, Feng Qing Yang did not respond.

Mi Xuan continued to say, “Feng Qing Yang, I’ll give you a year. If you don’t cooperate with me, I’ll kill you. At that time, I’ll kill your subordinates as well. Even Duan Ling Tian won’t be able to tell the difference if I disguise myself as you. After all, I’ve gotten so familiar with you that I can easily imitate you. At that time, I’ll kill Duan Ling Tian.”

After saying that, the sinister expression on Feng Qing Yang’s face disappeared, and his gaze softened. A faint smile appeared on his face as he said, “What do you think? It’s exactly the same, right?”

Even the Mi Xuan spoke was similar to Feng Qing Yang.

Feng Qing Yang said coldly, “Mi Xuan, if I fight you with all my might now, even if you die, you’ll be crippled.”

Mi Xuan narrowed his eyes and said with a sneer, “Perhaps, if you’d made a move against me when we just arrived in the Land of the Dead, I would’ve been seriously injured. However, now, I’ll suffer minor injuries at most. Apart from that, the spatial ring my subordinate gave me half a year ago contains this…”

In the next moment, a faint golden barrier appeared around Mi Xuan’s soul. Runes and intricate patterns could be seen on the barrier.

“A soul-defense divine artifact?”

Mi Xuan smirked. “You’re quite knowledgeable. Feng Qing Yang, you have one year. Think it through properly. Don’t make the wrong choice. Otherwise, your subordinates and Duan Ling Tian will have to suffer the consequences.”

…

Duan Ling Tian, whose true body was cultivating in the Pure Yang Sect, was naturally unaware of what was happening in the Land of the Dead.

At this time, his doppelganger from the law of space had arrived in one of the mundane realms. He was not familiar with the mundane realm, but it resembled Yan Huang Realm a lot.

Spatial tears appeared in the starry sky before Duan Ling Tian suddenly appeared.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Soon after, a few missiles shot into the sky like meteorites.

Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes. He saw a huge battleship at the other end of the sky. It was similar to the battleships he had seen in Yan Huang Realm, but it looked more powerful.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

When the missiles landed, the entire realm shook.

Duan Ling Tian frowned slightly. He extended his Divine Consciousness and discovered that there was only one person in the entire realm. At this moment, that person was dodging the missiles that kept coming.

‘The battleship is here for just one man?’ Duan Ling Tian shook his head. He did not intend to intervene. He extended his Divine Consciousness again to locate the weakest part of the space barrier here so he could travel to the nearest Devata Realm.

At this moment, an ultrasonic wave swept out in the sky over Duan Ling Tian.

…

In the battleship.

“An unknown human has been detected up ahead!”

“He appeared out of thin power. This means he has superpowers as well. Is here to help that man?”

“Should we attack him?”

A huge and tall middle-aged man with spiky maroon hair appeared in the cockpit. His expression was cold as he said, “Turn the speakers on. I want to speak to him.”

…

“You in the purple clothes, leave if you have business here. Otherwise, we’ll attack you as well!”

Duan Ling Tian ignored the warning from the battleship as he concentrated on looking for the weakest spot in the space barrier that would bring him to the closest Devata Realm.

Upon seeing this, the middle-aged man launched a few missiles at Duan Ling Tian.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

After the missiles exploded and the dust settled, everyone in the battleship was shocked to see Duan Ling Tian was unscathed.

A spatial storm raged around Duan Ling Tian, protecting him from the attacks.

The dozen people in the cockpit looked at Duan Ling Tian fearfully as though he was a monster. Finally, one of them asked in a low voice, “Commander, should we attack again?”

Smack!

The middle-aged man smacked the head of the person who had spoken as he said, “I’ll kill the next person who dares to act recklessly.” Then, he turned on the speaker and said, “My lord, we’ve misunderstood you. Please forgive us. We’re willing to compensate you for our mistake…”

However, before the middle-aged finished speaking, Duan Ling Tian had already disappeared into thin air.

“Huh?”

“Where did he go?”

“Is he a ghost?”

The people in the cockpit looked at each other in confusion.

…

Duan Ling Tian did not bother with those people. After all, they were so weak that they could not even leave a scratch from him. With that being said, his robe, which was made from cotton, was slightly damaged. His robe was an ordinary robe, after all. He did not have a habit of using Divine Energy to weave clothes since they were not very comfortable.
