"Release Lord Xue, and we can let you go!"

You Xuan's eyes showed a hint of worry, glancing at Jiang Chen before turning to glare fiercely at the seven acolytes.

Everyone was momentarily stunned. Dragon Saint and the Pope showed a hint of confusion in their eyes, while the Stygian Dragon and others displayed worry.

The seven acolytes exchanged glances, with the other six looking at the elder who had just questioned Jiang Chen first.

The elder glanced at Dragon Saint and the others, then fixed his gaze on You Xuan. "Lord Xue? What do you mean?"

"Lord Xue is our leader. Release him, and I can guarantee you will leave Sedney unscathed!" You Xuan spoke darkly and gravely, his face somber.

Buzz buzz!

Suddenly, a force of divine soul appeared, and everyone turned to look at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen was surrounded by a turbulent aura of divine soul, mingled with several strands, all intertwined as if competing for something!

"Release him!"

Buzz!

You Xuan suddenly shouted, his entire aura bursting forth, instantly reaching the peak of Saint Realm.

Buzz!

A force of divine soul appeared, and a thumb-sized divine soul flew out from You Xuan's Dantian, hovering on his shoulder, also releasing the aura of the peak Saint Realm!

"Second Soul?!"

The seven acolytes' expressions all changed, eyebrows slightly furrowed, and looked at You Xuan with astonished expressions.

"Lord Xue has just condensed his Second Soul and hasn't stabilized it yet. If you force him to self-destruct, I'll make sure none of you leave this place, even if it costs my life!"

You Xuan gazed coldly at the seven acolytes, deep concern evident in the depths of his eyes.

"Elder Fan!"

An acolyte approached the white-haired elder, calling softly, a hint of deep meaning shining in his eyes.

"Condensed the Second Soul at mid-Saint Realm? Do you think I would believe that?"

Elder Fan nodded at the acolyte, raising his head to mockingly look at You Xuan. "Are you trying to make us think that possession could fail, and we'll back down and release this boy? Is that possible?"

Buzz!

As soon as Elder Fan finished speaking, an aura of peak Saint Realm emerged from Jiang Chen, a divine soul force sprang from Jiang Chen's Dantian, joining the chaotic soul force on his surface, helping another soul force that matched perfectly to resist the other soul forces.

"The aura manifests, the divine soul struggle reaches a critical point! You bastards! Release Lord Xue immediately!" You Xuan's face turned livid, shouting loudly.

Buzz buzz buzz!

The expressions of the Supreme Emperor and the others changed, all erupting with powerful auras, locking onto Elder Fan and the others, their eyes showing a hint of worry.

Dragon Saint and the Pope applied pressure on Elder Fan and his group, while looking at You Xuan with slight confusion.

Mr Jiang is not afraid of possession, so what is You Xuan doing here?

Elder Fan and his companions' expressions fluctuated slightly, glancing at Dragon Saint and the others, hesitation flickering in their eyes.

Elder Fan, secretly observing everyone's expressions, now noticed that everyone present seemed to care immensely about Jiang Chen, leaving him to wonder.

This Jiang Chen... could he be an irreplaceable figure on Life Origin Star?

Otherwise, why would these peak experts and late-Unification Realm experts be so concerned about his safety, even at the cost of letting us go? If we successfully possess him, wouldn't it be...

"Ah!"

A shrill shout rang out, Jiang Chen's face twisted violently, shouting with his eyes closed, "Die, all of you!"

Buzz buzz buzz!

Jiang Chen's soul force suddenly intensified, and the other forces instantly vanished, as if they had never existed.

"Not good!"

Elder Fan's expression changed.

"Ha ha! Trying to possess Lord Xue? You truly are delusional!" You Xuan's face suddenly transformed into one of immense joy, laughed out loud.

Buzz!

The divine soul aura on Jiang Chen began to slowly weaken, his eyelids fluttering, looking like they were about to open.

The Supreme Emperor and the others' faces revealed hints of gladness.

"Continue!"

Elder Fan suddenly shouted, "Once we've possessed him, we win!"

Bang!

Just as he finished speaking, Elder Fan's body suddenly exploded, and his soul instantly rushed into Jiang Chen's brow.

The other acolytes hesitated for a moment, each gritted their teeth.

Bang bang bang!

The remaining six peak Saint Realm acolytes blew themselves up.

The current situation was clear. Jiang Chen was under their control, with You Xuan and the others surrounding them. If they failed to possess him, at most they would kill Jiang Chen, but they would inevitably face the relentless pursuit of You Xuan and the others.

Through the clash within the spatial array, they've tested Dragon Saint and You Xuan, discovering these two were stronger than they, alongside the Pope and others, meaning they couldn't survive and would inevitably be killed. After all, they had no reinforcements, whereas Dragon Saint and others could potentially have all of Life Origin Star's Martial Artists as backup.

When Elder Fan's self-destruction entered Jiang Chen's Sea of Consciousness to join the possession attempt, the other six decisively chose to blow themselves up. This way, not only would they have a chance to possess Jiang Chen, even a failed possession would allow them to survive in the form of a Second Soul. No matter who among them possessed Jiang Chen, they would undoubtedly find a suitable body for the others.

If they didn't blow themselves up to attempt possession, with You Xuan's current demeanor, it was likely they'd immediately take action. Participating in the possession could mean survival, while non-participation likely meant immediate death. Thus, all six chose to partake in the possession!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The self-destruction of seven peak Saint Realm experts caused powerful ripples, their fierce Qi Force instantly impacting You Xuan and others.

The Supreme Emperor's group, expressions changed, gleaming a cold flash, their hearts moved to rush in and protect Jiang Chen against the Qi Force.

Buzz!

You Xuan's aura suddenly pressed down on the Supreme Emperor and others, causing them to hesitate momentarily.

In that brief delay, Elder Fan and the others' souls all entered into Jiang Chen's brow.

"You Xuan, what do you mean?"

The Supreme Emperor, filled with anger, shouted, his aura explosively pressing down on You Xuan.

Buzz buzz buzz!

The five elderly Wei brothers, though silent, were truly the ones who cared the most about Jiang Chen, for it was his presence that kept them there.

Jiang Chen's presence gave them a sense that continuing to live had some meaning. Otherwise, upon learning of the Zhou Family's complete annihilation, they might have directly committed suicide as a declaration of loyalty!

Now, seeing Jiang Chen in danger of being possessed due to You Xuan's obstruction, the five elders were enraged, a vast murderous intent emanated from them, enveloping You Xuan and locking the space around him!
