244: Soul Possession

Oriental Shuo's Origin Sword Intent transformed into the world's most precise surgical blade, while Li Xue凝's Ice Phoenix Protective Aura provided an absolutely stable, extremely cold environment.

The three's powers combined perfectly, an unprecedented feat.

Three days later, Su Lei handed Yelena an ice-blue amulet embedded with the Mark of Nirvana.

"Wear it close to you. When the sacrifice begins, it will automatically activate, linking your life force to my Dao Marker."

"At the same time, my Divine Soul will enter your Sea of Consciousness. From that moment on, what you see is what I see."

Yelena took the cold amulet and nodded solemnly.

The roar of the decisive battle erupted over the ruins of Ice City!

Awakening Faction warriors, like a blue tide, launched a desperate charge towards one of the Gravekeepers' energy nodes.

The battle instantly became white-hot, ice crystal battle-axes clashed with ice frost barriers, and Ice Phoenix phantoms fought ancient formations in the air.

This was a power duel of the same Origin but different flows, a clash between the sharp edge of change and the stubbornness of decay.

"For Valkyrie's glory!"

Yelena led the charge, her war scythe transforming into a storm of death, tearing open a path.

However, Hera, one of the three Grand Elders of the Gravekeepers, merely tapped her staff lightly.

Buzz! Beneath the earth, an ancient formation was activated, and all Awakening Faction warriors felt as if they were trapped in a quagmire, while the Gravekeepers moved with ease, their Aura climbing steadily!

"Now!"

Yelena roared, transforming into a blue stream of light, ignoring all attacks, heading straight for Hera!

Capture the leader first!

But her surprise attack played right into their hands.

Four even taller, silent figures emerged like ghosts, and four jet-black ice crystal greatswords sealed off all escape routes, slashing down with immense force!

Boom!

A violent explosion illuminated the entire battlefield.

As the light dissipated, Yelena lay on the ground, covered in blood, her war scythe broken, her armor riddled with cracks.

She struggled, but Hera pressed her back down firmly with her cold staff.

"It's over, leader of the rebels."

Hera's voice was devoid of emotion: "Your life will become the fuel to extend the Queen's glory.

This is your greatest honor."

With Yelena's defeat, the Awakening Faction's front instantly collapsed.

In the shadows in the distance, several black-robed cultists watched coldly: "Go inform the Bishop, the sacrifice is ready."

On the way to the White Tower, Yelena was escorted tightly like a trophy, the cold amulet on her chest her only reliance.

In the shadows in the distance, Su Lei and the other two watched silently, like true ghosts.

At the top of the White Tower, beside the living altar, more than a dozen black-robed cultists and Elder Hera were already waiting.

"Begin..."

The Bishop looked at Yelena with satisfaction: "Let our Queen enjoy her belated dinner."

Yelena was roughly pushed onto the altar; the cold stone platform seemed to be draining her marrow.

As the incantations began, countless black tentacles coiled around her like venomous snakes.

Just then, the amulet on her chest trembled slightly.

The sacrifice began!

A powerful suction force frantically drew out her life force, her consciousness rapidly blurred, and an incredibly real sense of death enveloped her.

Everyone present witnessed her life Aura rapidly dissipate like a receding tide.

The Mark of Nirvana succeeded!

And deep within her perception, the life force that was being drawn away was forcibly intercepted by an even more domineering spatial power, all of it absorbed into a warm, vast, unknown space.

The Temporal Dao Marker also succeeded!

The moment her consciousness completely plunged into darkness, the Divine Soul imprint Su Lei left in the amulet activated with a bang!

Buzz!

Su Lei's consciousness instantly detached from his body, rushing along the sacrificial channel at speeds exceeding that of light, madly heading towards the deepest forbidden zone of the temple!

Passing through layers of Law barriers, finally, his consciousness penetrated the giant coffin carved from ten-thousand-year-old profound ice!

The sleeping Queen he expected did not appear.

What appeared before him was a mental world on the verge of collapse! The sky was covered with huge cracks, and the temple on the ground was in ruins.

In the center of the temple, an Ice Crystal Phoenix with dim feathers and wounds all over its body was letting out an unwilling wail.

This was the Queen's Soul Origin!

Opposite it, an even larger, more bizarre dark nebula slowly rotated.

It was like a cosmic cancerous growth parasitic there, slowly devouring everything!

The so-called genetic Wither (withering) was not a curse at all, but a Soul Possession that had lasted for ten thousand years! Venerable Tianhe actually intended to refine the Queen into his Clone!

Su Lei's consciousness, like a burning golden sun, suddenly descended, instantly breaking the standoff.

The Ice Crystal Phoenix cast a wary thought.

And that dark nebula, after a brief pause, actually transmitted a wave of ecstatic fluctuation!

A grand and ancient will, like a devil's whisper, echoed in Su Lei's consciousness: "Interesting newcomer, your Soul also carries the taste of time."

"Are you here to help me? This stubborn Soul is already at the end of its rope, but it still needs a little time to grind her down. I don't like to wait."

The dark nebula slowly drifted closer: "Help me devour her. I will grant you half the authority of this Empire. You will be the other King here."

Su Lei's golden sun's light flickered violently, looking as if it was undergoing an intense struggle.

"A wise choice."

The dark nebula was very satisfied with Su Lei's wavering: "Come, show me your sincerity."

"Use your power to break her last line of defense!"

Su Lei's golden sun no longer hesitated, its light suddenly flared, transforming into a burning thousand-meter giant blade, carrying an Aura that could tear everything apart, and slashed down fiercely towards the dilapidated Ice Crystal temple!

The Ice Crystal Phoenix immediately struggled to resist.

The dark nebula completely let down all its guard, beginning to contract its power, preparing to perfectly enjoy the final feast.

In its eyes, Su Lei, this sharp blade, was nothing more than a fool blinded by power.

However, just as the golden blade was about to strike the temple, a sudden change occurred!

That giant blade drew an incredible sharp turn in mid-air!

Its target was never the temple!

But that dark nebula, which was full of flaws due to its complete relaxation!

At the same time, the dim light in the eyes of the Ice Crystal Phoenix, which should have been despairing and waiting for death, suddenly ignited!

It transformed all its remaining power into a torrent of extreme cold and purity, a brilliant ice-blue, pouring it without reservation into that golden blade that had turned its weapon against its master!

Golden flame and ice-blue perfectly merged, and the blade's Aura instantly surged several times!

"You dare!"

The dark nebula finally reacted, and an will of shock and fury erupted with a roar!

But, it was too late!

Before its loose defense could even form, that Arbiter's blade, representing betrayal and counterattack, had fiercely and unreasonably pierced its undefended core!

"No!"

With the last unwilling roar, Su Lei's consciousness transformed into a greedy black hole.
