Ye Chenfeng successfully summons the soul of Long Wenshi from the Soul Point Platform. The three ancestors of Zhengqi Sect arrive and, angered by the main soul's disappearance, prematurely fuse the remaining souls into a Ghostly Evil Soul. Trapped and facing the newly formed Ghostly Evil Soul and the three ancestors, Ye Chenfeng feels a dire sense of crisis.

Regarding Ye Chenfeng.

Han Binbai, Zhao Youshou, and Wang Lirong had flames of anger continuously emerging in their eyes.

Collecting the souls of so many powerful entities wasn’t an easy task for them either.

What’s more, if their actions ever aroused the concern of other sects, and they didn’t have sufficiently strong ghost souls in hand at that time, their Zhengqi Sect would likely become the target of attack, which is absolutely not the result they wish to see.

That’s why they were burning with anger.

Although ghost souls at the late stage possess considerable power, they definitely can’t compare to ghost souls at the peak stage.

They no longer cared who Ye Chenfeng was now.

They only wanted to tear Ye Chenfeng’s body to pieces with their own hands, their internal momentum continuously surged out.

But then they thought that they couldn’t let Ye Chenfeng die so easily. The three of them exchanged glances, and Han Binbai looked at the ghost soul and said, "Go bite off the meat from this kid piece by piece, and absolutely don’t let him die until we give you the order."

Han Binbai and the others also wanted to observe the ghost soul’s abilities. Though their hearts were filled with many doubts, Ye Chenfeng was merely a person of mid Divine King Realm strength. Perhaps this kid had some strange tactics, but in the face of true power, any strange tactic would be destroyed.

Besides, the ghost soul’s strength was late Divine Venerable Realm. In their eyes, Ye Chenfeng was just a guinea pig, used to test the ghost soul’s abilities.

Honestly, they didn’t really take Ye Chenfeng seriously. If he hadn’t disrupted their plans, they wouldn’t sacrifice so much time on such a kid.

The unique power emanating from the ghost soul froze the space, preventing Ye Chenfeng from entering the small world within the Chaos Ring. His brows furrowed more and more tightly; perhaps entering the demonization state would retain a slight chance of survival, but the death qi patterns on his chest had to be guided by the power of the Coffin of Death for him to enter a conscious demonization.

But now, the Coffin of Death was also inside the Chaos Ring, and he couldn’t retrieve it at all.

In this situation, Ye Chenfeng could only muster all his strength and take a desperate gamble.

The enormous ghost soul of the late Divine Venerable Realm responded to Han Binbai’s order with a whimper in its throat, as if acknowledging.

Just as this ghost soul was about to rush toward Ye Chenfeng.

Suddenly, waves of energy fluctuations erupted all over the Soul Point Platform.

These waves of energy appeared too suddenly, and at the instant they surged, the ghost soul initially charging toward Ye Chenfeng paused.

The late Divine Venerable Realm ghost soul just stood there, dazed, motionless.

The energy fluctuations emanating from the Soul Point Platform grew increasingly intense, and an extremely dense blood-red glow blossomed from the platform.

Finally, the blood-red glow concentrated into a beam that struck the late Divine Venerable Realm ghost soul.

It was evident.

Han Binbai, Zhao Youshou, and Wang Lirong hadn’t anticipated such a change, and after a brief moment of distraction, Han Binbai shouted again, "Why are you just standing there? Did you not understand my order?"

As Han Binbai’s shout fell.

The ghost soul’s dazed eyes suddenly lit up with blood-red spots, and its gaze towards Han Binbai and the others was filled with murderous intent.

Logically speaking.

Ghost souls formed by the Soul Point Platform are puppets without thoughts, yet the ghost soul currently showed rich expressions, unlike a puppet should.

Being stared at by the late Divine Venerable Realm ghost soul, Han Binbai and the three had an extremely bad premonition.

Zhao Youshou unconsciously swallowed and said, "We are your masters. What on earth are you trying to do? Can’t you understand our orders?"

The blood-red light on the Soul Point Platform vanished.

The waves of energy fluctuations emanating from it disappeared too.

That late Divine Venerable Realm ghost soul completely ignored Zhao Youshou’s words, twisted its body slightly, and muttered to itself, "It feels good to see the light of day again."

How could a puppet ghost soul speak for itself?

This time, Han Binbai, Zhao Youshou, and Wang Lirong could clearly confirm that something was definitely wrong with this ghost soul, and the three of them became somewhat flustered. What would they do if this ghost soul stopped obeying their orders? Their own strength was only at the early Divine Venerate Realm, far from being its match.

They contemplated for a few seconds, wanting to leave the hall first.

But the late Divine Venerable Realm ghost soul gave them no chance to leave, and shouted, "No one has been able to command me. Anyone who dares order me is sent by me to Yama’s Palace; you three are no exception. Do you think people like you can be my masters?"

The ghost soul’s figure immediately appeared in front of Han Binbai.

Han Binbai instantly looked terrified.

The gap between early Divine Venerate Realm and late Divine Venerate Realm is massive, and in their panic, Han Binbai and the others were no match for the ghost soul. They couldn’t even protect themselves now, let alone worry about Ye Chenfeng.

"You can’t do this, we are your masters," Han Binbai shouted frantically.

The late Divine Venerable Realm ghost soul ignored this, directly pressing its strength onto Han Binbai, then extracted his soul and devoured it with relish.

Of course, it wouldn’t spare Zhao Youshou and Wang Lirong; the souls of these two were also extracted by the ghost soul.

After consecutively devouring the soul power of Han Binbai, Zhao Youshou, and Wang Lirong, the aura of this ghost soul finally reached the peak Divine Venerable Realm.

Though it had just entered the peak realm, its combat power far exceeded the late stage.

Ye Chenfeng, who hadn’t expected how to resolve this crisis, looked incredulously at the scene unfolding before him.

The ghost soul had devoured the souls of Han Binbai, Zhao Youshou, and Wang Lirong? Weren’t these three the ghost soul’s masters?

Why would the ghost soul devour its masters?

The power constraining the space hadn’t disappeared, and Ye Chenfeng’s heart grew increasingly heavy, knowing this ghost soul was no benign entity! If it could devour its own masters, let alone him.

After devouring the souls of Han Binbai, Zhao Youshou, and Wang Lirong, the aura of the ghost soul, now at the peak, finally focused on Ye Chenfeng, with an expression of disdain as if he were insignificant.

"Old Bai, Old Hei, what on earth is going on?" Ye Chenfeng urgently and gravely asked in his heart.
