As the soul pill entered, a surge of imnse pure yin qi erupted within Yang Haoran's body. His body, akin to parched earth, greedily absorbed the pure yin qi emanating from the soul pill explosion.
This pure yin qi wasn't like ordinary Yin Qi, nor was it as wild as the Death Mark Seal cultivated by Deng Feng using Night Watch. Instead, it was easily absorbable, with a rapid absorption rate.
Under the influence of this influx, Yang Haoran's Yin spirit power swiftly burgeoned. However, this surge wasn't about restoration; his Yin spirit power had been depleted significantly before and couldn't be restored in the short term.
The Yin spirit power generated after ingesting the soul pill was entirely new, bearing no relation to his previously depleted reserves. These fresh reserves not only bolstered Yang Haoran's current strength but also raised the ceiling of his Yin spirit power. Once this matter concluded and his Yin spirit power fully recovered, the amount of Yin spirit power gained through the soul pill today would be added onto his existing reserves.
The malevolent spirit, sensing the rapid surge of Yin spirit power within Yang Haoran, grew increasingly agitated. Before Yang Haoran had taken the soul pill, the malevolent spirit was confident of overpowering him. But now, with Yang Haoran having swallowed the pill, the situation was bound to flip!
Initially, he had relished the unique satisfaction of toying with the Underworld Envoy. However, Yang Haoran's unexpected consumption of the soul pill filled him with intense regret.
Yet, he remained unaware that even if he hadn't intended to toy with Yang Haoran and had unleashed his full power from the start, the outco wouldn't differ much from the current scenario.
In this mont, he had only one thought: not to flee imdiately but to find a way to restrain Yang Haoran again before his increased Yin spirit power beca insurmountable. He aid to swiftly devour the burgeoning Yin spirit power within Yang Haoran's body. If he could consu Yin spirit power faster than Yang Haoran could accumulate it, then he would erge as the ultimate beneficiary and victor of this conflict.
However, this plan was sowhat naive. Leaving aside whether he could re-imprison Yang Haoran, the issue lay in whether he could outpace the growth of Yang Haoran's Yin spirit power.
Nevertheless, the malevolent spirit didn't consider his plan naive. He believed he hadn't entirely lost the chance to turn the tables. Therefore, after missing his initial strike, he swiftly sensed Yang Haoran's location and lunged at him once more.
En route, he didn't forget to cast illusions upon Yang Haoran, intending to influence him through such ans.
However, these illusions had little effect on Yang Haoran. He had been on guard against the malevolent spirit's illusions all along, and his ghost eye remained open, possessing a strong anti-illusion effect.
Moreover, the malevolent spirit's position was precarious, and the illusions he hastily constructed were of poor quality, easily shattered by Yang Haoran in an instant.
Before the malevolent spirit could successfully approach Yang Haoran, the detested soul weapon, Waning Moon, reappeared.
He hesitated, unsure whether to evade it or ignore its presence and continue attacking Yang Haoran!
Evading would prevent his soul body from sustaining further damage, but it would also an his attack against Yang Haoran would fail this ti.
However, if he chose not to evade, he was confident of causing so damage to Yang Haoran, but he would also undoubtedly suffer. His soul body would once again be weakened by Yang Haoran's soul weapon.
It was certain that controlling the soul weapon would consu so of Yang Haoran's Yin spirit power. However, having consud the soul pill, Yang Haoran's Yin spirit power was rapidly increasing.
But it was different for him. Each ti he was weakened by Yang Haoran, he would grow weaker. If he weakened further, it would beco even more challenging to restrain Yang Haoran.
Weighing the pros and cons in an instant, the malevolent spirit ultimately chose to evade. Just as Waning Moon was about to strike his soul body, he dispersed his soul body into strands of Yin Qi and then reassembled it beside Yang Haoran, ready to strike again.
Yang Haoran was prepared. Facing this situation, he smiled faintly, a chain as thick as an arm appearing in his hand, which he then whipped towards the approaching malevolent spirit!
The malevolent spirit attempted to dodge, unwilling to let his power be weakened, but there was simply no ti.
He avoided Waning Moon but couldn't evade Yang Haoran's chain.
Boom!
The chain, condensed from Yin spirit power, struck his soul body made of Yin Qi, instantly dispersing it!
Having taken Yang Haoran's blow head-on, the malevolent spirit didn't retreat but instead pressed forward. As Yang Haoran's power continued to grow, he knew his ti was running out.
The dispersed Yin Qi coalesced once more. Compared to before, it had weakened slightly, but the malevolent spirit had no ti to worry about this. With Yang Haoran now within arm's reach, he couldn't afford to retreat. If he did, getting close to Yang Haoran again would be difficult!
Having already taken a hit, if he didn't inflict so damage on Yang Haoran, then his earlier blow would have been in vain!
So, he exerted all his strength and fiercely collided with Yang Haoran!
Bang!
The protective Yin Qi surrounding Yang Haoran was dispersed by the malevolent spirit's impact, sending his body flying.
Spewing out a mouthful of blood, Yang Haoran's body crashed against the stone wall like a cannonball, embedding itself once again.
The malevolent spirit's reckless counterattack inflicted significant damage upon Yang Haoran. Delighted, the malevolent spirit seized the opportunity. The Yin Qi transford from his soul body enveloped Yang Haoran, attempting once more to restrain him and swiftly devour his Yin spirit power.
But in the next mont, his joy evaporated as he realized that his current strength was insufficient to restrain Yang Haoran!
"Oh no!"
Just as a sense of foreboding arose within him, Yang Haoran struck like lightning!
Yang Haoran's right hand, tightly gripping the chain, transford it back into Yin spirit power. His entire right hand was enveloped in it, while he grabbed hold of the entwined Yin Qi surrounding him with this hand. This Yin Qi, ford from the malevolent spirit's soul body, did not belong to him.
Although Yin Qi was originally gaseous, Yang Haoran's right hand solidly grasped it. With a forceful tug, he forcibly pulled it down!
The Yin Qi churned in his hand, struggling to break free. With a sardonic smile, bloodstained lips curled upwards as Yang Haoran infused more Yin spirit power into his right hand.
Boom!
As more Yin spirit power surged into his right hand, the Yin Qi doubled in an instant, its sudden surge even producing a booming sound.
This sudden increase in Yin Qi wasn't from the malevolent spirit's soul body but originated from Yang Haoran's released Yin spirit power. By condensing too much Yin spirit power in his right hand, it beca oppressively filled with Yin Qi.
The malevolent spirit, whose soul body had been grabbed by Yang Haoran's right hand, felt unprecedented pressure. Despite his struggles, he couldn't break free from Yang Haoran's grip!
"Don't struggle; it's futile," Yang Haoran said with a smile, watching the Yin Qi in his hand struggle violently.
"You despicable Underworld Envoy! If I hadn't been sealed here for so long, my strength wouldn't have yet reached its peak. Otherwise, the first ti I imprisoned you, you would have been drained of Yin spirit power!" ca the enraged voice of the malevolent spirit from within the Yin Qi, filled with resentnt and unwillingness.
Yang Haoran's smile didn't waver as he asked, "And what's the outco?"
"The outco! The outco is that you've outwitted , you bastard!" the malevolent spirit roared loudly.
"I've outwitted you? How so?" Yang Haoran chuckled.
"You could have swallowed the soul pill long ago, but you didn't. You let believe I could take you down at any mont, making lower my guard. Isn't that outwitting ?" the malevolent spirit roared again.
"And you call that being outwitted? You don't even know what cunning truly ans."
The malevolent spirit completely ignored Yang Haoran's words. In his view, he had indeed been outwitted by Yang Haoran, leading to his current predicant.
"If you dare, release ! Let's have another fight! If I lose, I'll let you do as you please!" the malevolent spirit continued to roar.
With a gleam in his eyes, Yang Haoran asked, "Release you so you can escape, right?"
"Do you dare?!" the malevolent spirit shouted.
"Truth be told, I don't dare."
"You coward!"
Ignoring the malevolent spirit's roar, the soul gathering bead on Yang Haoran's ring fell off and floated in the air before him. Without hesitation, he stuffed the malevolent spirit into the soul gathering bead!
