"Burning Qi."

As the Demonic Bat attacked, a determined look appeared in Lin Ke Zhu's eyes. He burned all of his vital energy and blood at all costs and poured it into his Fire Crystal Battle Blade. He slashed out with his strongest move at the Demonic Bat, making his final move.

The moment Lin Kezhu went all out, Ye Zichen threw away the cracked and severely damaged Crimson Nimbus Sword and took out the mysterious broken sword. He ignored the danger and injected half a step into the broken sword, then activated the broken sword to attack.

When the purple light from the soul attack reached him, Ye Zichen immediately stood on the form of a mirage, which transformed into a blurry speed shadow and dodged the purple light attack.

As for Lin Ziyue, who was burning his blood and launching his strongest attack, she was unable to dodge, and was struck in the chest by a purple soul light. The inner armour she wore immediately shattered, and she vomited a mouthful of blood as she fell dozens of meters away, unconscious.

"I didn't expect you to be so tenacious." The bronze masked man restrained the backlash of his soul power and said with killing intent as he looked at Ye Chenfeng, who was holding the broken sword in his hand.

"It would seem that you are not lightly injured. Otherwise, with our strength, we would not be able to injure you at all." Ye Zichen looked at him with a burning gaze in his eyes, while secretly controlling the power of the Soul Corrosion Brain and breaking the runes on the broken sword, he said in a low voice, delaying the time.

"Brat, you know too much. This isn't a good thing for you."

The bronze masked man merged the ghost bat into his body and walked towards Ye Zichen with heavy steps.

Although he walked very slowly, his aura increased with every step he took. The powerful pressure made it harder and harder for Ye Chen to breathe.

"Senior, if I can help you attract more people, would you let me go?" Ye Chenfeng said with great difficulty as he struggled to breathe, while he continued to stall for time.

"No."

Although Ye Chenfeng's strength was not high, the bronze masked man felt a dangerous aura from his body and said with a murderous intent.

"Elder..."

"You talk too much nonsense, go die obediently."

The bronze masked man interrupted Ye Chenfeng, he slapped his right hand in the air and formed the Ghost Claw once again. With an ear-piercing sound, it grabbed towards Ye Chenfeng's chest, wanting to crush his heart.

"It's not certain who will die."

Ye Zichen roared, while clenching the broken sword that suddenly rang out, he slashed at the ghost claw with a sky-splitting force.

In the next moment, the sword force that was sealed within the broken sword appeared. Under the terrified gaze of the bronze masked man, it pierced through the ghost claw and slashed at the bronze masked man.

The ghost-masked man did not expect that Ye Chenfeng could unleash such a terrifying sword attack. Furthermore, they were too close to each other, so he had no time to dodge.

"Ghost Bat!"

At that critical moment, he summoned the Ghost Bat, hoping to defend against the sword energy attack.

However, the power of the final sword attack sealed within the broken sword was too terrifying. The ghost bats that emitted purple light could not withstand it at all.

"Chi!"

A strange cloth tearing sound rang out, and the terrifying sword aura split apart the ghost bat without any suspense, the remaining power did not diminish as it hacked at the bronze masked man's body, cutting off half of his body, a large amount of blood spurted out like a fountain onto the ground.

"As expected, the sword energy sealed in the broken sword did not disappoint me."

Ye Zichen, who had survived a disaster, let out a long sigh as he looked at the ghost masked man, who had only half his life left in a pool of blood. If this sword aura attack failed, then he would not be able to escape.

More importantly, there was no longer any danger hidden within the broken sword. In the future, he would be able to safely repair the broken sword's damaged array patterns and use it as a weapon.

"Sword, sword energy, with your strength, how could you unleash such a powerful sword energy? Who exactly are you?"

The bronze masked man never imagined that he would fall into Ye Chenfeng's hands, he said in despair.

"Who I am is not important. The important thing is, who are you?"

Ye Chenfeng looked at the dying bronze masked man, he was also very curious about the man's identity.

"I never would have thought that I would fall into the hands of a member of the younger generation." The bronze masked man sighed and said, "It seems the heavens really want me dead."

After he finished speaking, the bronze masked man knew that he was dead, so he tried to blow himself up.

Suddenly, a sharp sword light shot out from the broken sword. The sword cut off his remaining left arm, causing him to wail in pain. It interrupted his suicidal thoughts.

In the next moment, a phantom image of Ye Zichen appeared behind him, then hit his head with a palm, causing him to faint.

"Soul Devouring Spell, Devour!"

Endless Devouring Power surged out from Ye Zichen's palm, then went through the bronze masked man's head into the depths of his soul, frantically devouring his soul beast, the Blood Bat.

Immediately, rich soul power flowed into every meridian in his body, increasing his own strength while tempering his internal organs.

"What a dense soul power! Just what realm is this expert at? Even though he's heavily injured, the soul power contained in the blood bat is still this strong!"

Feeling the soul power in his body rising bit by bit and his internal organs rapidly transforming, Ye Chenfeng felt his heart palpitate from the ghost-masked man's peak strength.

"My soul power is overflowing. Break through."

In about the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Ye Chenfeng, who had consumed a huge amount of soul power, felt that his soul power was overflowing.

After breaking through to the next level, Ye Zichen continued to devour the soul power in the ghost-masked man's mind, raising his strength and cultivating his six meridians.

After about the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Ye Zichen completely devoured the bronze masked man's soul beast, the Blood Bat.

At this time, his soul power was once again overflowing, and he easily broke through to the fifth rank as a magical beast master.

His internal organs, on the other hand, had absorbed sixty percent of the blood bat's soul power, refined it to sixty percent. His physical strength alone had reached an astonishing thirty thousand kilograms.

With the addition of his soul power, his strongest physical strength had reached more than 60,000 pounds. With a single punch, he would be able to destroy a sixth level magical beast master.

Ye Zichen quietly consolidated his cultivation and plundered the bronze masked man's remains. After destroying the corpse, he walked over to the heavily injured, deeply unconscious, and drenched in blood, and checked on the condition of her injuries.
