Making Wedding Clothes for Another
Moreover, after losing his physical body, Si Ming could no longer subdue others by force, because in this state there was no concept of speed and strength, only the strength of his soul as his reliance. Among those present, the Moon Devil King's soul was the strongest, even surpassing Si Ming's.
Furthermore, the effectiveness of martial arts moves is greatly weakened. Due to the loss of the physical body's limitations, one can freely perform actions that are impossible under normal circumstances, such as folding the body in the opposite direction or turning the head 360 degrees. Or, if a palm strike is thrown and the opponent dodges it, one can suddenly extend the arm to strike the opponent. In addition, since the soul body has no concept of vital points, those moves that specifically target vital points lose their value.
In conclusion, using Technique Method is more effective in such situations.
"Sin-Extinguishing Divine Lightning!"
Si Ming pointed his finger, and first, arcs of electricity flashed at his fingertip. Then, a lightning snake formed from coiled lightning snaked out and swept away the evil.
Seeing the fierce attack, the Moon Devil King hurriedly gathered his soul power to force back Wan Ziling and Liu Qingqing. Then, he raised his hands, and a silver full moon slowly rose, beautiful as a dream, solid as a wall, blocking the rampaging electric snakes. Then he slapped his palm, and the full moon shattered, turning into fine silver fragments that spread out.
"Illusory Dream Bewilders All!"
This all-encompassing, no-blind-spot attack was impossible to dodge. Although Si Ming used the power of wind and thunder to form a shield, it was completely useless, and he was instantly pulled into an illusion.
As far as the eye can see, there are countless delicacies from land and sea, and exquisite dishes that make one's mouth water. There are also stunningly beautiful women dressed in thin gauze, dancing gracefully in the hazy atmosphere, their figures so enchanting that they set one ablaze with desire. There are also pearls, agates, jade, gold and silver, each a rare treasure.
"Tch, what a lack of imagination! Laozi only like two-dimensional anime characters, get out of here!"
Si Ming Mingmeng gathered his energy, intending to activate the Kui Drum Thunder Sound, but then awkwardly discovered that without a physical body, he couldn't activate this move at all. This was because the Kui Drum Thunder Cause was activated by essence and energy mixed with intense yang energy. Although he could generate sound waves with his soul power in his divine soul state, he couldn't generate essence and Essence Blood air, so he couldn't break the illusion.
Having become so accustomed to using it before that he had forgotten this point, Si Ming hesitated for a moment, realizing he had missed his chance, and had no choice but to switch to defense to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the situation to launch a sneak attack.
However, the expected sneak attack did not occur. Instead, the illusion shattered on its own. Si Ming focused his attention and saw that Wan Ziling had launched a frenzied offensive against the Moon Devil King, forcing the latter to retreat step by step.
Hmm, something seems off?
Wan Ziling exuded intense resentment, her hair flying wildly, her face contorted in a madman-like rage, her soul casting a long, black shadow as if mutated. Her attacks were haphazard yet exceptionally fierce, a relentless barrage of fists, palms, fingers, claws, and legs, a desperate, all-out offensive. Even the mighty Moon Devil King was forced into a disadvantageous position for a time.
"Die die die die die..."
Wan Ziling repeatedly uttered the word "death," sending chills down everyone's spines. Her spiritual strength also increased significantly, narrowing the gap between them.
In a one-on-one situation, the Moon Devil King would not take Wan Ziling's attacks were fierce, she also had many weaknesses. He was willing to trade injury for life, first setting a trap to lure her in, and then launching a counterattack to severely injure or even kill Wan Ziling.
However, with Si Ming and Liu Qingqing watching him intently from the sidelines, he knew that if he were injured, he would be in immediate danger. Therefore, he had to protect himself as much as possible and could only choose to temporarily avoid their attacks.
"Judging from this, could she have turned into a vengeful ghost?"
Si Ming guessed that Wan Ziling was originally a ghost after death. If the enemy's illusion made her recall the pain of her past life and generate strong negative emotions, it would be reasonable for her to transform into a vengeful ghost...
"We can't let her continue going mad. Although the situation is in our favor, we can't just stand by and watch her turn into a vengeful ghost."
Liu Qingqing eyes met, and they understood each other perfectly, striking at the same time.
Liu Qingqing suddenly turned into a long sword, piercing through the air to attack the Moon Devil King, forming a pincer attack with Wan Ziling.
Among those present, Liu Qingqing was the most comfortable in her soul form, simply because she was already accustomed to the transformation of her Blood Spirit Body. If it were Si Ming wanting to activate his Swordsmanship, he would condense a longsword in his hand, rather than turning his entire body into a longsword.
It wasn't that he didn't know the latter was more agile, free from the burden of a physical body, allowing for free transformation, while also reducing the area of force application, making it safer. But this was a matter of habit, almost instinct. If he were to take human form, his movements might not necessarily be more agile than wielding a sword.
Liu Qingqing's flying sword moved at varying speeds, sometimes slow, sometimes fast, sometimes left, sometimes right, as light and graceful as the wind, as swift and unparalleled as lightning, as ethereal and formless as clouds, and as unpredictable as mist. Its angles were tricky and impossible to defend against, causing the Moon Devil King to sweat profusely and be unable to protect himself from both ends. He could only defend himself with shield-like Technique Method.
Just then, Si Ming raised his palms high, gathering lightning power in his palms. The lightning was dazzling and gradually formed two spherical lightning bolts, extremely bright. As if worried that the Moon Devil King hadn't noticed, he roared, "Thunderous Lightning Hell!"
How could the Moon Devil King be completely unguarded towards him? He had been keeping a close eye on him all along. Upon seeing this, he became like a frightened bird and immediately changed his shield into a protective barrier, covering his entire body.
However, the lightning in Si Ming's palm did not erupt; it continued to surge wildly. Instead, Liu Qingqing seized the opportunity to launch a killing move.
"Illusory Moth Sword Tribulation!"
In an instant, a sharp sword light erupted, like a shooting star streaking across the sky, like lightning tearing through the night, like a rainbow piercing the void, and even more like a moth drawn to a lamp, crashing into the protective shield without hesitation.
After a brief stalemate, the sword light pierced through the protective barrier and pierced through the Moon Devil King. A large amount of soul power was lost from the wound, and the sword light turned into a moth and dissipated.
Liu Qingqing, having pierced through the enemy, did not stop. She transformed again, turning her sword into a Wu hook, hooking the berserk Wan Ziling, and rapidly widening the distance between herself and the Moon Devil King. At the same instant, Si Ming pressed down with both hands, and two star players shot out like lightning, hitting the Moon Devil King, who had not yet removed his protective shield.
In an instant, the accumulated thunder roared and spread out, with hundreds of electric dragons scattering and illuminating the dim sea of consciousness as if it were daytime. Then, as if "hail" was falling from the sky above the sea of consciousness, a dense storm of thunder descended, with bolts of lightning carrying pure yang energy continuously crashing down. At first glance, it seemed as if the heavens and earth were connected by countless lightning pillars, forming a lightning prison that was constantly compressing inward.
"The Heavenly Devil Destroys the Dao, the Moon Falls into the Deep Goblet!"
Just as the lightning prison was about to shrink into a single point, Devil Qi suddenly erupted, and a black crescent moon forcibly broke through the prison. Then, the heavily injured Moon Devil King flew out and fled from Liu Qingqing's body in a sorry state.
He looked around and found that Si Ming's body was now empty. He thought to himself, "This is truly a gift from heaven!" and immediately pounced on him.

Light, bright light, dazzling light.
As soon as the Moon Devil King entered Si Ming's body, he felt a white blur. Although his soul had no vision, the information that came back from wherever his spiritual sense reached was blinding light and scorching heat!
"Does this guy have a sun hidden inside him?"
The Moon Devil King felt a sharp pain wherever the light touched his body. His Devil Qi was rapidly evaporated, weakening him as if being peeled away layer by layer.
Realizing that the opponent's Cultivation Body might have the effect of suppressing external Primordial Spirit, the Moon Devil King had no way out. When his physical body was destroyed, his soul was damaged. He had just suffered sword wounds and lightning strikes, and was already extremely weak. If he did not quickly seize a physical body, he would not be able to maintain it for long. Not to mention that there were two peerless ferocious beasts fighting fiercely outside, and the aftershocks alone would be enough to make him disappear into nothingness.
With no way to retreat, the Moon Devil King endured the burning pain and desperately rushed into Si Ming's sea of consciousness, attempting to turn the tables before his soul was completely incinerated.
"... arrive!"
Although it was only a few breaths, it felt like years to the Moon Devil King. Fortunately, it possessed unparalleled cultivation. Hundreds of years ago, before the existence of the King of Monsters, it was a great demon who dominated the martial arts world of the Barbarian Continent. It finally managed to cross the "sun" and enter Si Ming's sea of consciousness.
"This person's primordial Primordial Spirit has already left his body; his physical body is just an empty shell. As long as I can occupy his entire sea of consciousness before he returns—no, as long as I occupy more than half of it—this body will be mine. Moreover, the strength of this boy's body is unparalleled in my life; even that young master of the Dragon Devil cannot compare to him. With this physical body, I can not only escape this calamity, but also..."
The Moon Devil King's beautiful aspirations came to an abrupt end, for he saw in his sea of consciousness a sacred and solemn Bodhisattva sitting cross-legged, seated on a lotus platform, one hand holding his heart, the other forming a mudra, radiating immeasurable light and immeasurable life.
The Moon Devil King felt a sudden sense of alarm, but at the same time, an ethereal and enchanting voice came from an unknown place into his mind, like a morning bell and evening drum, extinguishing all his thoughts and leaving his mind completely empty. Then, all sorts of sounds, sights, secrets, and impermanent phenomena flooded into his mind, making him yearn for them and wish he could immediately lay down his butcher's knife and repent for the mistakes he had made in the past.
