Yu Ci's Yin Spirit remained stable, while on the other end of the connection, violent tremors surged wave after wave. Lake Sea Wanderer, in his desperation, cried out,

"That bastard, he deceived me!"

Lake Sea Wanderer considered him the root of all evils, even overshadowing the torment he received from Yan Chu, who made living unbearable and death unattainable. This pitiful soul had lost all reason, and what emerged was a deep-seated resentment. However, the source of this resentment was somewhat unexpected.

That bastard?

Yu Ci, from his elevated position, observed the surging resentment.

Although it was a two-way perception, the Lake Sea Wanderer posed no threat to him. From his perspective, the other end of the Divine Intent Connection was like a mad ant. It might be dangerous at its level, but for Yu Ci, it was meaningless.

This mentality was very subtle, yet incredibly wonderful.

He was somewhat puzzled by Lake Sea Wanderer's resentment. His confusion was clearly transmitted through the Divine Intent Connection to the weakening Divine Soul at the other end.

This was a technique, but calling it a technique wasn't quite accurate. Yu Ci was merely imitating the attitude of a Great Mystical Powers in his mind: starting from a superior position, using an unchallengeable will to act on the pitiful Divine Soul's flame.

In the next moment, the flame of Lake Sea Wanderer's Divine Soul was about to be extinguished!

The pressure that the Divine Soul's flame couldn't resist was like a mountain pressing down. This pressure touched on a very profound level. Yu Ci was just imitating, but for the weak Divine Soul at the other end, it was excessively powerful.

Like the sound of shattered glass, the last bit of protection from the Divine Soul level of Lake Sea Wanderer, born out of primal instinct, shattered. At this moment, the Divine Soul's flame was like a broken house overturned by a storm. To it, Yu Ci's Yin Spirit was like the sun hanging high in the sky, casting light into it, illuminating every hidden corner.

Lake Sea Wanderer's last bit of instinct let out a painful scream,

In the moment the protection was broken, Lake Sea Wanderer's Divine Soul suffered the most lethal blow, especially the "light" coming from Yu Ci's Yin Spirit. While illuminating everything, it also destroyed everything, simultaneously seizing a large amount of information from the deepest layer of his consciousness.

Of course, due to the brutality of the method, most of the information was destroyed, with only bits related to "deception", "secret chamber", "Mysterious Nimbus Guide" and so on preserved. If Yu Ci wished, he could immediately understand this information, but at this moment, his interest had shifted to the main body of Lake Sea Wanderer's Divine Soul.

He discovered that the current state of agony of Lake Sea Wanderer was quite intriguing, a situation he himself had orchestrated!

Originating from his Yin Spirit's oppressive power, he had completely seized control over the Divine Soul's flame at the other end of the connection. It was as if he was toying with a minute insect at his fingertips, where a slight increase in pressure could obliterate it into nothingness.

In fact, the Divine Soul's flame at the other end had already reached its limit, initiating an irreversible process of collapse. Despite Lake Sea Wanderer's complete loss of consciousness, he could sense the formal arrival of death. Surprisingly, the only instinct left within the Divine Soul's flame did not exhibit any negative reactions such as hatred towards Yu Ci, who was about to erase it completely. In the face of this formidable and irresistible force, it only showed humility and submission.

Subsequently, with just a slight fluctuation of Yu Ci's thoughts, the feeble Divine Soul evaporated like a dewdrop, leaving no trace behind. Correspondingly, Lake Sea Wanderer ceased to exist!

Yu Ci slightly closed his eyes, deeply inhaling the air that perhaps still carried a trace of resentment, and found it quite satisfying. His heart pounded vigorously, as if cheering. The agitation stirred up by Yan Chu erupted once again, but this time, it was not aimless, but firmly fixated on its target, refusing to let go.

To grant life or death at his will! Such supreme control was indeed wonderfully exhilarating!

This delightful sensation simmered, gradually seeping into his heart, triggering a new wave of excitement.

Such a feeling, he truly wanted to savor it again.

Yu Ci's gaze returned to Yan Chu.

The female cultivator appeared extremely disheveled at this moment. She was about ten feet away from her original position where she had collapsed. It seemed she was attempting to struggle and escape, but it was destined to be futile. Yan Chu was intelligent, she understood that it was impossible to escape from Yu Ci's grasp, but she still made the attempt. Yu Ci clearly understood her purpose - Yan Chu was still trying to tempt him.

Yan Chu was provoking his violent instincts with the desperate demeanor of the weak, just as she had done before.

Despite knowing this, Yu Ci found himself immensely enjoying the situation. He strode forward, stepping on the slender leg of the female cultivator. Yan Chu shuddered, her voluptuous body collapsing onto the ground as if devoid of strength. Now, Yan Chu was his. If he wished, he could manipulate this woman in any way he desired, and this enchantress skilled in seduction would willingly cater to him, all for the sake of begging for a glimmer of survival.

However, Yu Ci, a man, merely clutched her delicate neck, hoisting her up.

Fear flickered in the eyes of the female cultivator, while Yu Ci looked on with interest.

Facing the beautiful woman in his hands, he suddenly realized that satisfying the fleshly body was of little importance. He could attain rewards far beyond that, akin to the divine soul flame of the Lake Sea Wanderer.

"Such beauty," Yu Ci sighed, gradually exerting force.

Yan Chu, a woman, seemed to understand. The female cultivator began to fear, began to struggle fiercely, but her struggle was different from others. She didn't hope to break free from Yu Ci's iron-like grip. Instead, she used all her charms, showcasing her beauty. This beauty, mixed with fear, was like the most splendid fireworks in the dark night.

But after the bloom of such splendor, there was boundless despair.

Yu Ci closed his eyes, not because he couldn't bear to witness the process, but to appreciate and seize the divine soul level in another way. The female cultivator's "Soul Source" was flashing with dazzling light.

In this final moment, she radiated all her light and heat, hoping to touch Yu Ci's heart and return things to normal. She would beg humbly, weep bitterly, and use all means to give Yu Ci the most bone-eroding memory, hoping that this man could never leave her, ultimately sparing her life.

However, Yu Ci didn't need it.

Still expanding, Yu Ci gradually increased his strength with the expansion.

Colors appeared before his closed eyes, the most splendid colors between life and death. More importantly, they were controlled by him, blooming with his thoughts.

Endless pleasure roared and surged. Yu Ci's body trembled. This pleasure had infinite magic, instantly permeating his whole body, making him swell, almost bursting in that moment!

It was dangerous, but it was an incomparable enjoyment!

Yu Ci could no longer control himself and let out a long howl to the sky.

In his hands, Yan Chu's soft body sagged, her vitality and aura rapidly devoured, until she became an empty corpse, sliding to the ground.
