The voice of the protagonist was not loud, but the tone was extremely firm.

Zhao Yi glanced at him, and her gaze fell back on Yao Su.

Yao Su seemed not to hear the protagonist's words, looking down at Zhao Yi with a cold gaze, as if he were looking at an ant.

Zhao Yi looked at Yao Su, also expressionless.

He calmly said, "I actually don't care what you are, because no matter what you are, you're doomed."

As Zhao Yi spoke, his gaze fell on the skin Yao Su exposed, on scars of varying lengths and ages.

If it were someone else, they might find the scars ugly and disgusting and wouldn't look a second time.

But Zhao Yi was different.

Zhao Yi had witnessed Taotie's rebirth.

He knew that some inscriptions have special effects.

Zhao Yi remembered all the scars on Yao Su's body and then combined all the marks in his mind.

Indeed.

A knowing look flashed in Zhao Yi's eyes.

The combined scars on Yao Su's body formed a strange pattern.

It was a gigantic black human-shaped Evil God with a thousand hands and thousand eyes, similar to the Buddhist Sect's Thousand-Handed Buddha.

The Evil God's figure was enormous, towering high, seemingly with infinite power, compelling people to bow their heads.

Unlike the majesty and solemnity of the Buddha, this Thousand-Handed Evil God had black palms and scarlet eyes, appearing evil and eerie.

The Evil God's body wasn't complete; a crucial inscription was missing at its forehead, possibly due to the interruption when Zhao Yi and others broke off the sacrificial ceremony.

No wonder Yao Su was so furious earlier!

As Zhao Yi was thinking, he suddenly felt something was watching him.

Like a needle against the back, like a bone stuck in the throat.

Soon, he horrifyingly discovered that the black Evil God mark couldn't be erased from his mind.

The Evil God's eyes unknowingly opened.

As Zhao Yi focused his mind to look, It was also gazing down at Zhao Yi.

At this moment, a sentence suddenly surfaced in Zhao Yi's mind.

"When you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you."

Zhao Yi's hair stood on end instantly.

The Evil God immediately noticed Zhao Yi's heart spirit tremor, and thousands of sinister eyes emitted a strange light, captivating and oppressive, overwhelming Zhao Yi's heart spirit.

It, like before when facing the protagonist, could easily find the weaknesses of the human heart, then continuously amplify the fear and weakness of the heart spirit.

Zhao Yi was drenched in sweat.

Just as he struggled to cope, the voice of "Ling" echoed in his mind.

It seemed to think Zhao Yi couldn't hear, recklessly judging Zhao Yi.

"What a plump soul!"

"Haven't seen such a perfect sacrifice in a long time!"

"I so want to devour him in one bite!"

Zhao Yi was momentarily stunned, raising his head to look at "Ling," feeling a bit bewildered.

This is "Ling?"

It doesn't seem too clever, does it?

How did this thing manage to rule the Cultivation Realm for hundreds of thousands of years?

"Ling" hadn't sensed Zhao Yi's thoughts.

It looked down at Zhao Yi, speaking in a tempting tone:

"Worship me, sacrifice to me, and I can give you everything you desire!"

"Really?" Zhao Yi raised an eyebrow.

He asked "Ling," "Can you open the Mystical Gate at the Baihui Acupoint for me?"

"What's so difficult about that?" It said casually.

Clearly, "Ling" must have granted numerous requests to increase cultivation.

Hearing Zhao Yi only asked to open the Mystical Gate.

It didn't even demand a sacrificial return; the Thousand Hands and Thousand Eyes exerted their power simultaneously.

Boom!

Zhao Yi felt a familiar sense of vibration.

This was the first time Zhao Yuan's royal uncle helped him open the Mystical Gate.

The trembling sensation of the Mystical Gate!

Zhao Yi's eyes lit up.

This "Ling" does have some capabilities!

Miaoyin had previously concluded that Zhao Yi's Mystical Gate had vanished.

"Ling" not only found it but also broke through it.

Although it ended in failure, it was far superior compared to Miaoyin.

Eh?

"Ling" suddenly let out an unexpected sound.

Clearly surprised by someone as peculiar as Zhao Yi.

The full-force attack still failed to break the barrier, making Him lose face a little.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"Ling" no longer held back and continued to attack the Mystical Gate.

Zhao Yi, having undergone tens of thousands of attempts, had already summarized the experience needed to break through the gate.

The gate of the Mystical Gate is profound and mysterious.

Generally, if the first attempt to break through fails, subsequent attempts will also fail.

Indeed.

Although "Ling" grew increasingly irritable, the tremor of the Mystical Gate diminished with each attempt.

Zhao Yi's physique was now incomparable to when he first attempted to break through.

The first time Zhao Yuan, the emperor's uncle, helped him, Zhao Yi was immediately knocked out.

Now, despite the same intensity of "Ling's" assault on the Mystical Gate, Zhao Yi didn't even feel dizzy.

The power of "Ling's" assault on the Mystical Gate was dissipating into Zhao Yi's body.

Zhao Yi could feel it.

His physical body began to strengthen once more.

He vaguely felt as if he was touching a barrier.

Breaking through that membrane might just mean reaching the legendary tenth tier.

However, since Zhao Yi hadn't cultivated True Essence, he couldn't be certain whether breaking through meant reaching the Tier Ten Void Realm.

"What's the matter, still can't do it?"

Zhao Yi slowly spoke once "Ling" had completely failed to shake the Mystical Gate: "With just these tricks, you want me to bow to you? The legendary 'Ling' is just like this!"

"Ling" fell silent.

He must have encountered someone as peculiar as Zhao Yi for the first time.

Directly questioning life's meaning!

"But it should be..." He muttered to himself softly.

Zhao Yi raised an eyebrow: "Can you do it or not? If not, then get lost, stop wasting my time!"

"Ling" also had pride.

Upon hearing Zhao Yi question his capability, "Ling's" thousands of eyes glared angrily.

With all the thousand hands clenched into fists, he fiercely threw a punch forward.

"Break!"

Zhao Yi's face changed drastically; he immediately focused his spirit, ready for battle!

Just as "Ling" was about to break the Mystical Gate, a crimson fist suddenly descended from the sky, knocking "Ling" off his feet with a punch.

Then, an equally sky-reaching crimson giant shadow slowly invaded Zhao Yi's consciousness world.

Bang!

Zhao Yi felt the Mystic Gate World tremble violently, gold sparks flashing before his eyes.

If "Gu" hadn't intervened at the critical moment, "Ling's" punch would have definitely broken the Mystical Gate!

Zhao Yi even had a premonition.

His physical body had already reached the limits of the Tier Nine Saint King Realm, and the day the Mystical Gate broke would be the day he breaks through to the legendary Tier Ten Void Realm!

But!

Zhao Yi took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm his trembling Heart Spirit.

He lifted his head to look towards the newly appeared "Gu".

He didn't know if it was an illusion.

Zhao Yi had a vague feeling that "Gu" seemed not to want him to break through the tenth tier!

"So, does 'Gu' also have consciousness?"

Zhao Yi looked at the two towering giant figures occupying the Divine Sense World, feeling incredibly heavy-hearted.

Whether it was "Ling" or "Gu", they were both entities he couldn't contend with at the moment.

At least with "Ling", Zhao Yi knew its background, so he wasn't too worried.

"Gu" appeared suddenly, without any signs, mysterious and inscrutable.

It was uncertain whether "Gu" stopping Zhao Yi from entering the tenth tier was good or bad.

While Zhao Yi pondered this, "Ling" finally stabilized his enormous form.

Very strange!

"Ling" was clearly just an Evil God's projection in Zhao Yi's Divine Sense World, yet "Gu's" punch truly landed on him.

"Ling" appeared just like an ordinary person would be dazed by a punch, staggering around before recovering after a while.

Upon seeing "Gu", "Ling" was momentarily stunned and then very humanly rubbed his eyes.

It's just that he had so many hands that a thousand of them took turns rubbing his eyes, and Zhao Yi was so bored that he almost fell asleep watching.

At last, "Ling" finally came to his senses.

Looking at "Gu's" sky-reaching crimson figure, "Ling" hesitated for a moment.

Then he turned and ran!
