"Alright, nothing's wrong, let's go..." Ye Jingyu, whose mind had settled upon a firm resolution, broke into a radiant smile. If Luo Ling'er didn't love him, then he would make her love him; if anyone stood in his way, he would slay gods and destroy demons...

With all reservations banished from his heart, Ye Jingyu immediately felt a sudden clarity and brightness within his soul. Above his head, a warm sensation washed over him—the Heavenly Blast Soul he had never managed to refine finally began to coalesce...

In an instant, Ye Jingyu felt his soul power surge dramatically. The Heavenly Blast Soul, Spirit Intelligence Soul, Essence Soul, and Hero Soul within him began to communicate incessantly, perfectly embodying the principle of Yin and Yang merging in the heavens and earth. A massive torrent of soul energy continuously surged towards the core Soul nexus located in his abdomen...

The energy fields belonging to the Force Soul and Qi Soul also began to spin rapidly. This colossal energy poured forth like a bursting dam, flooding madly towards the location of his navel...

The six streams of energy continuously fused, transformed, and condensed. As these six energies merged, the Tyrant Origin Power within Ye Jingyu boiled completely, relentlessly forging and tempering his...

Various energies between heaven and earth, at this moment, violently rushed into Ye Jingyu’s body. They flowed directly into the center of his abdomen without the need for conversion by the ring, and were then entirely absorbed by the pure soul power within him...

The masters of the entire Zhenguo Mansion, and indeed everyone skilled in martial arts throughout Yunjing, simultaneously sensed the shift in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and other energies. One by one, they looked up in astonishment toward the direction of the Zhenguo Mansion...

An unimaginable soul-pressure emanated from him. Luo Ling'er, standing before him, felt as if a massive mountain was crushing down upon her. Her body involuntarily staggered back several steps, a look of terror on her face. How could she have known that Ye Jingyu would be cultivating martial arts at this moment...

At that moment, a crescent moon shape faintly flickered on the center of Ye Jingyu’s brow. A faint light shimmered around his throat, chest, lower abdomen, and even lower. His eyes blazed with two blinding beams of light—a light of extreme dominance, saturated with aggressive, unrestrained possession, as if everything in existence belonged to him...

Sensing that naked, domineering gaze, Luo Ling'er felt her heart pound rapidly once more, and she began to avert her eyes, suddenly hesitant to meet the gaze of those eyes...

Within the Zhenguo Mansion, the few top masters simultaneously sensed the change occurring nearby. They rushed over at their fastest pace, only to feel Ye Jingyu’s body subtly levitating. The various energies of the world continued to charge into his body frantically, and the immense pressure made it difficult for them to approach...

Little Tao Tao, who had been sleeping, was also startled awake by the anomaly. Her form appeared at the scene at some unknown time. Compared to ordinary people, her senses were far more intense, especially regarding the soul shadow that manifested behind Ye Jingyu—its soul power was nearly catching up to her own ferocious beast form...

What’s wrong with Little Ye Zi? What kind of cultivation technique is he practicing that is so terrifying?

Ye Jingyu clearly felt the changes occurring within him. Seeing the four figures of Bie Li rushing toward him, without thinking, he roared, "Wild Tyrant Battle Mark..." The soul shadow behind him instantly transformed into a pale-gold ripple of energy, slamming fiercely toward the four of them...

The four had already retreated quite far, but they suddenly felt a massive wave of energy rushing toward them. This energy was filled with powerful tyranny, contempt for all things, and an unyielding fighting will. Under this energy, it seemed as if everything in the world was about to be destroyed...

The four dared not be careless. The innate true Qi within their bodies surged out madly, forming layers of powerful true Qi shields before them. These four shields instantly merged, creating a four-layered protective barrier that completely encased them...

"Crack..." The innate true Qi barrier jointly condensed by the four innate masters was directly shattered by the golden ripple. The fierce golden light wave slammed heavily into the bodies of the four, blasting them outward. Blood sprayed from their mouths without restraint...

Finally, they crashed heavily to the ground...

Feeling the impact of such a blow, Bie Li, Yue Youqun, Ye Longyi, and Ying Xiaoxiao revealed expressions of utter horror. In just one strike, they could not withstand it. This... how was this possible?

Even a true Grandmaster, facing the four of them together, might not gain any advantage, yet he defeated the four of them in a single move. What cultivation method did he practice? How could it be so powerful?

At this moment, Ye Jingyu's authority was completely established in the hearts of the four. Their loyalty to him deepened a little more...

Seeing the result of that single strike, a faint smile touched Ye Jingyu's lips. Tyrant Origin Art was truly a cultivation method of extreme dominance. The more domineering it was, the greater its power could be unleashed: scorning all, ignoring everything, whether gods or demons, immortals or Buddhas. Those who follow me prosper; those who defy me perish—this was the true essence of the Tyrant Origin Art...

That move, the Wild Tyrant Battle Mark, was a technique he created by mimicking Little Tao Tao's Dragon Mark Battle Wave, immediately after feeling his soul power could coalesce. The power of this move far exceeded his imagination. Was this the true might of a Soul Master after reaching the Condensing Soul realm?

At this moment, Ye Jingyu was confident that even if he faced Huangfu Buyue again, without resorting to the self-damaging Tyrant Origin Power, he possessed sufficient strength to defeat him...

"Congratulations, General, on achieving great success in your divine skill..." Seeing the confident smile bloom on Ye Jingyu's face, the four on the ground—Bie Li and the others—immediately scrambled up and knelt before Ye Jingyu on one knee. At this moment, not a single dissenting thought remained in their hearts...

"Little Ye Zi, did you advance again just now?" Luo Ling'er had only just snapped back to her senses, asking with great curiosity...

"En, and I owe it all to you..." Ye Jingyu nodded. With his strength greatly increased, his confidence grew. Luo Ling'er would be his; no one could take her away, not even a god...

"I owe it all to you?" Luo Ling'er looked astonished...

"Heh heh, aren't you going to draw lots? Let's go. You four, rest well. When Chen Qi arrives, help him train the army properly. We depart for battle in seven days, and I need to thoroughly experience this new strength..." Ye Jingyu said with a faint smile, as he stepped forward, wrapped his arm around Luo Ling'er's slender waist, and started walking toward the exit, addressing the four kneeling figures naturally...

Neither Luo Ling'er nor the four of Bie Li reacted in the slightest to Ye Jingyu so shamelessly holding the Princess's waist; it seemed as if it were the most natural thing in the world...

Watching Ye Jingyu and Luo Ling'er’s receding figures, the four were filled with nothing but profound awe...
