In the dark sea water, Shi Yan was stimulated and his face was heavy and complicated.
Get the real Zi Yao back?
He was moved. He knew a little bit about the relationship between the host body and the clone body of Absolute Beginning creatures. However, he wasn’t as familiar with such things as Yuan Zu was.
That year, when he saw Zi Yao become one with Hui and turn into someone he didn’t know, he thought that he would never be able to find the real Zi Yao. After that, Hui had used Zi Yao’s voice and affections to talk to him and try to mimic her. But more than anyone else, he understood that she wasn’t the Zi Yao he knew.
He thought that he had lost Zi Yao forever.
And now, Yuan Zu told him that he could help him get back his Zi Yao. Moreover, Zi Yao could use her soul to replace Hui’s host soul. Shi Yan was both excited and skeptical about this. He was suspicious that Yuan Zu could use him somehow.
However, this hope made his heart beat faster. He pondered for a while and then decided resolutely. Even if it was a trap, for Zi Yao, he must try!
If he denied this chance, he may never get another. He would never meet Zi Yao again!
“Alright!” Shi Yan hissed and lowered his voice. “If you can give me a chance to meet her to talk, I will trust you and your competence!”
“Wait for me.” Yuan Zu was also resolute. He disappeared immediately.
Swoosh!
Forefather Dragon Lizard was brought to Shi Yan by a water current.
Inside the dark sea water, Shi Yan couldn’t see him but he could use his soul to know. He understood that Yuan Zu moved Forefather Dragon Lizard here to show his willingness in this cooperation.
He was excited, frowning and waiting for Yuan Zu in the dark sea.
The sea had flooded the entire earth and sky of the planet and hid Yuan Zu’s real body. The twelve snakes were there and continued to fight Hui.
Neptune and the others were hovering outside the atmosphere of the planet and planning to attack the creatures.
However, at this moment, they found that the entire planet had disappeared in an immense ocean that not only flooded the planet but also was expanding to several planets nearby!
In the vast territory, an ocean suddenly emerged and covered so many stars. It was still expanding and reaching the entire territory. It looked as if it wanted to turn this territory into an immense ocean. This power was so terrifying, indeed.
As Neptune and his peers were ready to attack, when they saw the horrible situation, they had to dodge and move towards the edge of the territory where the sea hadn’t reached yet.
This situation had happened for dozens of days. During this time, many uninhabited stars around were swallowed. This area was desolate and remote with only dead stars. As Hui had come to this place with the plan of eating up Forefather Dragon Lizard, she didn’t find a place with many life stars.
It was suitable for Yuan to maximize his power.
After dozens of days, the immense sea shrouded more than ten planets and filled one-fifth of this territory.
Shi Yan had waited for dozens of days under the dark sea. He could feel that the commotions of the battle between Hui and Yuan had never ceased. When the seawater rose, Yuan’s power increased. When the sea water stopped expanding, it was Hui’s turn to counterattack.
Shi Yan and Forefather Dragon Lizard stayed inside the ocean that Yuan Zu had created within the range of his Soul Consciousness.
They had discussed for a long time. Shi Yan wanted Forefather Dragon Lizard to leave, but Forefather Dragon Lizard didn’t agree. He wanted to stay to watch the battle between Absolute Beginning creatures. He also wanted to help Shi Yan awaken Zi Yao and get her back, even though he didn’t know who Zi Yao was.
“Follow me.” Today, Yuan Zu reappeared. As soon as he emerged, this dark sea area become transparent. Shi Yan and Forefather Dragon Lizard could see through the water now.
A spiral tunnel was conjured behind Yuan Zu. He slowly retreated into the tunnel.
Shi Yan and Forefather Dragon Lizard followed him.
Through the tunnel, a light suddenly arose. Bands of rainbow weaved in front of them. A bright world under the sea came into their view.
The bodies of the twelve snakes were still in the sea and fighting Yuan Zu’s real body. They were equally strong and it seemed like no side had gained the upper hand.
The battle between Absolute Beginning creatures would take a long time if their powers weren’t too different. For example, the battle between Desolate and Devour had lasted for tens of thousands of years without a clear result.
Similarly, the battle between Hui and Yuan wasn’t going to finish early if nothing unexpected happened. It could last until the end of an Era.
“I’ve used my Soul Bead to intrude her soul. I can subdue her host soul for a while. She can’t control everything for the time being. You should call Zi Yao’s soul to get out. I think Zi Yao’s soul will tell you what to do.” Yuan Zu appeared in his human form and said earnestly, “As soon as my Soul Bead comes out, I will have to face high dangers too. Please… pay attention. I don’t want to be destroyed together with Hui. You guys must notice that as soon as my Soul Bead leaves, you shouldn’t believe any word of hers!”
“Do it!” Shi Yan took a deep breath and shouted resolutely.
The big bubble Yuan had swallowed spurted out again. This time, his Soul Bead instantly divided into twelve parts and turned into twelve black streams that carried pure soul energy. Each of those streams was as powerful as the entire soul pond in Shi Yan’s soul!
The twelve streams were created by the soul energy combined with his Soul Consciousness and power Upanishad’s supernatural abilities. They suddenly intruded Hui’s twelve heads like twelve jets of black lights.
The fierce battle stopped instantly.
Yuan’s massive body and Hui’s snake body froze momentarily. The battle between their bodies had switched to the most terrifying soul fight!
Shi Yan sensed for a while and he found that Hui’s furious soul energy inside the twelve heads was suppressed as if twelve invisible hands were squeezing them.
It was just like Yuan Zu had said. He had used the Soul Bead to enter Hui’s twelve soul clones to control them and prevented them from uniting the clones!
“Zi Yao! Zi Yao!” Shi Yan decided quickly. His body flashed and reappeared by the snake head with the magnificent throne. He began to call Zi Yao who was sitting motionlessly, her face blank. “I am Shi Yan! Wake up! Wake up!”
His chanting voice was like strange electricity that moved around Zi Yao.
Zi Yao’s blank face slowly become puzzled like a dormant person that couldn’t wake up immediately.
Shi Yan sounded hurried as he called her continuously.
Since Hui’s twelve souls were subdued, Zi Yao looked as blank as a statue. Slowly, her eyes regained light. Shi Yan was excited and he hurriedly called her, “It’s me! Zi Yao! It’s me!”
Waves of light expanded from her eyes like sparks that set fire to an entire moor. Zi Yao’s spirit recovered. Her eyes suddenly brightened and she screamed in panic. “Don’t! Don’t erase my memories! Please… Let me go!”
“It’s me! It’s me! Shi Yan is here!”
“Shi Yan? Zi Yao? Am I Zi Yao? I am Zi Yao!”
Zi Yao’s body was shaken as if she got hit by lightning. She finally looked sober. With no hesitation, she jumped into Shi Yan’s embrace and said in fear, “Get me out of here! I have to go far away! It controls my body and soul. I’m not me anymore. I can’t control myself! Please! Take me out of here! Wake me up from this endless nightmare!”
“I will. I will. Trust me. I will take you out of your nightmare and give you a beautiful one!” Embracing her shivering figure, Shi Yan confirmed that she was the real Zi Yao!
“Shi Yan, that old man said that he couldn’t seize much more time. He reminded that your woman knows how to do it. I think you can chat later…” Forefather Dragon Lizard reminded them timely as he saw Shi Yan’s emotion burst out; he had lost his calm temper.
Shi Yan’s face changed. He recognized the reality of the situation. He lowered his voice, “We don’t have much time. I’ll tell you the situation first. Someone is blocking Hui’s soul from controlling you. However, he can’t do it for a long time. You tell me. Can you use your soul to occupy its soul and replace it? Can you do that?”
“I’m not strong enough,” Zi Yao shook her head continuously, “It’s so strong. Stronger than any existence I know. I can feel its intimidation all the time. No creature can defeat it.”
“Yes!” Shi Yan shouted, “Regardless of how strong it is, tell me what to do now!”
“She has twelve souls that connect to each other. The host soul is right here!” Zi Yao pointed at the massive snake head under the throne. “The host soul is the control center. As long as we attack the host soul, we will have a chance! If I can occupy its host soul, I can control the body with the endless power. Then, it’ll be easier to fuse with the other clone souls. However, my soul is too weak. It’s impossible to fuse with its soul. It can make my soul perish easily.”
“At this moment, its souls are controlled. You can try!” screamed Shi Yan.
“I’m scared…” Zi Yao shook her head continuously and shivered. She was deeply frightened. She wasn’t brave enough to try to break that deep-to-bone fear.
“I will help you!”
Shi Yan pushed Zi Yao away and roared to activate the power from his blood. His body swelled up immediately. Within seconds, he had become a savage Giant with Skyfall Star River in his hands. As Zi Yao gawked and dropped her jaw, Skyfall Star River became a long chain.
He coiled the chain around Hui’s main head and squeezed. His eyes were red when he shouted at Zi Yao, “Get in its soul!”
