As I watched Er Ye shouting and flying out, I thought to myself, "Now I can do it. With this kind of power, I can avenge my parents and Yao Long!"
With this thought in mind, I couldn't help but clench my fists, planning to launch a decisive attack on Er Ye. But just as I steadied myself and prepared to charge at him, I was surprised to see that Er Ye was flying over the spot where the Death Apostle had fallen.
Seizing the opportunity, Er Ye reached down without hesitation and pulled the unconscious Death Apostle up, tightly locking his elbow around the Apostle's neck. He then steadied himself and said, "I guess he’s not dead yet... Do you want him to die?"
"Stop!" I quickly shouted, halting in my tracks.
Seeing me stop, Er Ye revealed a sinister smile and said, "I can spare his life, but I have a condition..."
"What condition?" I replied sharply.
"It's simple. Although I prefer to act decisively, I'm still willing to negotiate if there's a chance. You see, the life of this Death Apostle is in my hands..."
Growing impatient with his rambling, I gritted my teeth and demanded, "Cut the crap and get to the point!"
"Alright, straightforward is good. It's simple: a life for a life. You kill yourself now, and I'll let him go!"
Upon hearing this, my brows furrowed. I turned around and grabbed the Ancient Blade that Gu Kai had handed me, positioning the blade against my neck. "I’ll kill myself if you guarantee his release!"
Er Ye smirked slightly. "Fine, no problem."
Just as I was about to act, I suddenly felt someone grab my arm holding the knife, rendering me immobile. Turning my head, I saw Gu Kai had gotten up and was gripping my arm tightly. "God King, it's useless. Even if you kill yourself now, it won't matter... If suicide could solve anything, why would Cangdi go through so much trouble to disperse his power?"
"What else can I do now that the Death Apostle is in his hands? Should I just watch him get killed? If you have a way to save him, then do it!" I exclaimed as I tried to shake off Gu Kai's grip.
To my surprise, Gu Kai nodded slightly at my words and calmly replied, "As you command." In an instant, he vanished from right in front of me.
The moment Gu Kai disappeared, there was a dull thud from where Er Ye stood; he grunted and was sent flying backward.
Looking back at the Death Apostle now, I saw that he had been rescued by Gu Kai and lay collapsed on the ground.
"It seems their power has truly increased too much... But why... why do they suddenly want to submit to me? Just now, when the Box opened, aside from some memories surfacing, nothing particularly special happened..." I thought to myself while feeling the changes in my body.
At that moment, I suddenly realized that the power within me was continuously growing. This increase in power was not the sudden boost after Onizuka's release, nor was it the sensation of absorbing a spirit.
It was an experience I had never had before, as if I were absorbing the essence and souls of all surrounding objects and transforming them into my own strength. This feeling started off very faint, so much so that I barely noticed it, but as time passed, not only did the amount I absorbed increase, but the range of absorption gradually expanded.
Just as I was feeling astonished, Er Ye, who had been knocked away by Gu Kai, stood up again. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said fiercely, "You were unkind first; don't blame me for being unjust!"
"Eclipse!"
Er Ye shouted, and suddenly a mass of darkness erupted behind him, expanding at an astonishing speed.
Seeing this scene, Yang Shiling, who had been kneeling before me, was startled and jumped up anxiously. "God King, it's bad! Er Ye..."
Before Yang Shiling could finish his words, I could no longer hear his voice; the surroundings once again plunged into endless darkness.
This time, the darkness released by Er Ye not only obscured the stars and moon but also silenced all sound as if I were trapped in an extremely dark box where I couldn't see my own hand in front of my face.
"Hu Fang! Li Zhisheng! Death Apostle!" I shouted loudly, but even my own voice was inaudible; everything around me fell into a deathly silence.
"Right, perception..." I thought and tried to close my eyes to sense Hu Fang and Li Zhisheng's presence.
However, even when I used the power of Void Spirit to probe, it was futile; even my awareness of my own strength began to fade.
"What is this ability of Er Ye's? Has it deprived everyone of their senses?" Just as I felt helpless, a light suddenly appeared before me. I quickly raised my hand to shield my eyes.
After a moment, as my eyes gradually adjusted, I finally saw a somewhat familiar scene: several police officers were gathered around a plastic sheet laid on the ground, with some floodlights set up around them. The blinding light emanated from those lamps.
Seeing this, I instinctively wanted to step forward to see what had happened but found my path blocked by a yellow police tape. At that moment, someone beside me dashed out. That person rushed to the plastic sheet and without hesitation lifted it up. In that instant, a bloody corpse appeared before me; the person who had lifted the sheet immediately knelt down on the ground and began to cry out in anguish.
Now I could see clearly that the one who rushed forward to lift the sheet was Hu Fang, and lying before her was the mangled body of Tang Qian.
"Wh-what's going on...?" I stared in shock at the scene before me. Before I could comprehend it, I found myself in a desolate wilderness. In the air, a figure was holding up a massive You Long, shouting, "Fiery Annihilation!"
"Li Yu, is that person Li Yu?" I thought to myself as the You Long collided with two others, releasing a dazzling burst of light.
Moments later, as the light faded, I faintly heard the heart-wrenching cries of Li Zhisheng, a sound so painful it moved me deeply.
"This is an illusion; it must be an illusion created by Er Ye..." I closed my eyes and shook my head vigorously, trying to wake myself up.
But just then, when I opened my eyes again, I found myself lying on a stone bed. Standing beside the bed was a blood-soaked figure who said, "Even in death, I want to die with dignity!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, a hand emerged from behind him, holding a bloody Heart.
"Yao, Yao Long... no..."
