Ye Tianfan looked at Tian Chu Zhenren charging at him with a ferocious expression, feeling a twinge of pain in his heart. He recalled Tian Chu Zhenren's kindness towards him, and how despite the stern and unsmiling façade, he truly cared for his disciples.

Seeing him in such a menacing state now, Ye Tianfan felt an intense, profound heartache.

In the past, it was always his mentor protecting him, but now, it was his turn to help. Even though he couldn't do much, the only thing he could do now was to ensure his mentor didn't escape this encirclement.

Meanwhile, Tian Chu Zhenren didn't care about Ye Tianfan's heartache. His sole aim was to drive Ye Tianfan away or kill him and then escape from this perilous encirclement.

At this moment, Tian Chu Zhenren launched every attack with deadly intent towards Ye Tianfan's vital points. He knew Immortal Techniques were useless because a strange tower continually blocked his immortal arts, and engaging in close combat, Ye Tianfan would only dodge, not block.

Thus, Tian Chu Zhenren believed that as long as he landed one strike, he could kill him and then escape this peculiar encirclement.

Meanwhile, Jia Dali and his group had reached the most critical moment. The spiritual power fluctuations emanating from them grew more and more intense.

After dodging a strike from Tian Chu Zhenren, Ye Tianfan discovered that due to such intense movements, Tian Chu Zhenren was bleeding profusely, some skin was torn, and even Ye Tianfan could see the white substance in the cracks.

He knew what that was and also understood the severity of Tian Chu Zhenren's injuries.

Such severe injuries could not be delayed any further.

"Is it not done yet? My mentor can't wait any longer." Ye Tianfan anxiously shouted to Jia Dali.

But Jia Dali did not respond to Ye Tianfan because they were at the most crucial moment. Not only would Tian Chu Zhenren escaping undo all their efforts, but even if Tian Chu Zhenren stopped attacking Ye Tianfan and attacked them, it would render all their efforts futile.

Though Jia Dali didn't explain this to Ye Tianfan, because saying so might entice Tian Chu Zhenren to attack them, yet they trusted Ye Tianfan not to let them get hurt.

Ye Tianfan did not hear their response, but he knew in his heart they were still at a critical moment and not ready yet, so he could only delay a bit longer, waiting for them to complete their task.

However, seeing Tian Chu Zhenren so gravely injured, Ye Tianfan felt anguished as if stabbed in the heart.

"Master! Master, it's Tianfan, wake up!" Ye Tianfan attempted to use words to stop Tian Chu Zhenren, even if it caused a moment of hesitation to reduce the great harm to him.

But Tian Chu Zhenren still roared ferociously, "Blood, I want blood, kill you, kill you."

"Master, can such mere demonic qi invade you? Be strong, master, Brother Taihuo and mistress are all waiting for you to return safely!" Ye Tianfan said excitedly.

At this moment, after Ye Tianfan said those words, Tian Chu Zhenren hesitated slightly, not much, but Ye Tianfan noticed it.

"Master, have you forgotten? After you brought me back to Taihuo Peak, my cultivation speed was fast. You cheerfully exclaimed my high hopes in the Nine Veins Conference. Have you forgotten all this?" Seeing Tian Chu Zhenren's hesitation, Ye Tianfan hurriedly pressed on.

Hearing this, a hint of hesitation appeared on Tian Chu Zhenren's grotesque face, as if recalling something.

"Master, do you remember? I went to the head restaurant during the Nine Veins Conference and ran into you there!" Ye Tianfan continued.

Tian Chu Zhenren's face showed a struggle, and the red in his eyes started to fade.

"Damn you, get out of my body!"

"Blood, I want blood!"

"Trash, get out."

"Blood!"

Now, Tian Chu Zhenren seemed like a schizophrenic, switching between saying this and that, and Ye Tianfan could distinctly hear one voice was his mentor's consciousness, the other was his demonized consciousness.

Ye Tianfan didn't say another word but watched the changes in his mentor. Presently, one of Tian Chu Zhenren's eyes regained its normal color, no longer blood-red, while the other eye remained fiery blood red.

"This..." Seeing such a situation, Ye Tianfan gasped. He had read that once someone turns demonic, unless someone seals the demonized consciousness or suppresses it with a powerful treasure, one might only wait for the demonized consciousness to devour one's consciousness.

Yet, Tian Chu Zhenren forcibly tore a crack open himself within the demonized consciousness, regaining control of his body, something not merely explainable by strong willpower.

This willpower was harder than steel, nearly unshakable for Tian Chu Zhenren.

"Nephew Tianfan, quickly step aside, the sealing is ready, I will... huh?" When Jia Dali was finally ready to act, prepared to let Ye Tianfan leave the encirclement and seal Tian Chu Zhenren, he suddenly saw Tian Chu Zhenren had regained half his sanity, stunning him completely.

Like Ye Tianfan, Jia Dali was utterly shocked. Not only him, but everyone present was also shocked, looking at Tian Chu Zhenren with profound admiration. He was the first, and currently only person in the history of the cultivation world able to suppress demonization without external aid.

"It's ready, why not seal?" Seeing Jia Dali hesitate, Ye Tianfan urged impatiently.

"Nephew Tianfan, Tian Chu Senior has now freed himself from demonic control and regained his consciousness. Our powerful heritage seal is used to seal the dominant consciousness at that time, which is the demonized consciousness. If it's sealed now, both Tian Chu Senior's consciousness and demonized consciousness would be sealed, turning Tian Chu Senior into a vegetative state!" Jia Dali explained to Ye Tianfan, though he did not dare to relax the sealing spell in his hands.

Who knew if Tian Chu Zhenren's state was temporary? If his consciousness was overpowered by the demonized consciousness again, would they have to take so long to recast the spell?

Currently, Tian Chu Zhenren was still fighting with the demonized consciousness. However, his consciousness seemed to be suppressing it significantly.

Now, one and a half of Tian Chu Zhenren's eyes had returned to normal, one was entirely normal-colored, and the other was half blood-red, half normal.
