Body-seizing—this was no stranger to Yi Tianxing.From the various ancient tomes he had read, such an act was recorded in detail. It was when a person's soul was devoured by an external force, taking over their physical shell. The body remained the same, but the soul within would be completely replaced. From then on, the original "self" would cease to exist.Such an act was no different from a death sentence.It was the theft of everything he was.
This was a grudge of life and death, one that would not end until one of them was completely destroyed. Once a body-seizing began, there was only one possible outcome—you die, or I do. The world was just that cruel.
"Trying to seize my body? You're courting death."
A flash of icy killing intent rose in Yi Tianxing's heart.This act treated him like a mere slab of meat on the butcher's block.
"You want to seize me? I'd like to see just what kind of monster you are."
With a single thought, his consciousness plunged inward.
Inside his body:
"What is this place? A golden ocean… This is a Sea of Consciousness! You've already opened your Sea of Consciousness Aperture... and even condensed your spiritual power into liquid form? Such powerful innate mental force! Truly formidable innate soul power! What a top-tier vessel. This time, this Evil Emperor is going to rise again. Devour your soul, and your body will become mine!"
The black humanoid pill that had entered his body appeared in his Sea of Consciousness.
There, spiritual power had already transformed from gas into liquid form—evidence of Yi Tianxing's extraordinary mental prowess, far exceeding his peers. To awaken the Sea of Consciousness so early was a rare, heaven-given advantage, underscoring his immense potential.
Yi Tianxing's soul manifested in the Sea of Consciousness, identical in appearance to his physical form. Normally, the soul would remain dormant and hidden, but the invader had forced it to surface—his entire will and consciousness fully gathered in that soul.
In a single vessel, only one soul could reign.When two appeared, one must perish.This was a battle to the death.
"You dare to seize my body? Whatever you are—you're going to die."
Yi Tianxing's soul was solid and condensed.With the Sea of Consciousness open, his soul was being nourished and constantly growing stronger. Here, he was the master, with complete control over everything in this mental domain.
"Tsk, tsk. As if that's up to you. You think you can resist this Evil Emperor's soul-seizing? You really think you're in control here? You're far too naive. With your body, I'll be reborn. No one in this world will recognize me again."
The humanoid pill, now revealed to be the Evil Emperor, resembled a dark infant, radiating thick evil energy. He grinned wickedly, releasing streams of black aura, which spread into the golden Sea of Consciousness, attempting to corrupt and take over the domain.
Golden waters began to darken, blackness expanding rapidly.In the tainted regions, Yi Tianxing immediately lost his control—they felt alien, no longer his.
Rather than attack the soul directly, the Evil Emperor was corrupting the Sea of Consciousness, trying to turn it into his own domain—a truly insidious tactic, cutting Yi Tianxing off from any fallback.
"Kill!!"
Yi Tianxing's eyes flashed coldly. Without hesitation, he unleashed a divine attack.
From thin air appeared a pair of black-and-white scissors—
Innate Divine Power: Yin-Yang Shears!!
Within the Sea of Consciousness, Yi Tianxing could wield any divine power freely. A single thought could manifest godly powers, and one thought could destroy all evil.
The Yin-Yang Shears transformed into two intertwining black and white flood dragons, sweeping across the void in a deadly snip—
Snip!
The Evil Emperor was cleaved in two at the waist.A chilling scene. But instead of fear, the Evil Emperor only grinned. His body turned to black mist and swiftly reassembled, good as new.
"This emperor is immortal. I cannot be destroyed. No divine power in heaven or earth can kill me. Your Yin-Yang Shears are strong, but meaningless against me."
He cackled madly.
"No one—no matter how strong—can take a divine strike and not suffer. Even if you're 'immortal', regenerating still costs energy, life force, and origin power. The more I kill you, the more you weaken. You'll die eventually. Don't try to fool me."
Yi Tianxing dismissed him coldly.There was no such thing as true immortality without a price.He believed he would crush the Evil Emperor—this was his body.
"Hmph! Then let's see who dies first!"
The Evil Emperor's face darkened. He had hoped to bluff Yi Tianxing but failed. That divine attack had come too quickly—he hadn't even had time to react.
He laughed coldly and suddenly, his eyes shone with a strange light.
Suddenly, in the Sea of Consciousness, dozens of beautiful women appeared, all clad in sheer veils that barely covered their bodies.
Their movements were seductive, their figures graceful, their presence intoxicating. Every part of them radiated temptation.
Enchantresses.
Their laughter was enchanting, their dancing mesmerizing.Even Yi Tianxing felt a dangerous temptation rising within him.An infernal fire seemed to be igniting in his body.
"Come… enter bliss with us…"
"My body is yours. You can do anything—though I might resist…"
"I'm so lonely… so empty…"
The soft whispers and moans seeped into his very soul.
"An illusion?"
Yi Tianxing's mind trembled—but he quickly realized:
"No, this isn't illusion magic. It's desire itself—manipulating my inner desires directly. This is the power of lust."
These women were incarnations of lust.
"Be sealed!!"
Yi Tianxing didn't hesitate.
With a thought, a crystal-like treasure tower emerged—its body glowing like glazed glass.
One level of the tower opened, releasing a strange suction force. The demonic women were instantly pulled into the tower.
A layer of divine glazed light burst from the tower, pressing down on all evil.
Sizzle sizzle!!
As the divine light spread, it clashed with the black corruption like water and fire. The darkness was swiftly burned away.
In moments, the Sea of Consciousness was purified, the blackness cleansed completely, and the Evil Emperor enveloped by divine light.
"Impossible! What is this tower!? It restrains all evil—it's a soul treasure! Damn it! If only I wasn't so weak—I'd smash it to pieces!"
The Evil Emperor's eyes widened in disbelief.
To encounter a legendary treasure that counters evil souls—just before a body-seizing attempt—was like walking into a steel wall.
The sacred light made the Sea of Consciousness a burning furnace for him.
With a look of desperation, the Evil Emperor made a move.He turned into a mass of black mist, ghostly and formless.Without warning, he lunged directly at Yi Tianxing's soul.
A last-ditch effort.The divine light consumed him, but could not stop him in time—
In the blink of an eye, he was upon Yi Tianxing.
