Fox Charm Nightmare Path! (Thanks to Brother Youyu for the tip and support~ Thanks, bro!!)

Tushan Lingling twirled a lock of hair around her finger as she watched Ye Zhiyuan's aura break through to level seventy-one.

She was somewhat surprised that he possessed two arm soul bones, and that both their types and abilities were identical!

Judging from the Soul Power fluctuations they emitted, the soul bones were probably over five thousand years old.

It was the stacking of these two soul bone abilities that had granted him the temporary ability to break through to the Soul Sage level!

At this moment, Ye Zhiyuan felt the power within him, nearly twenty times stronger than before!

The confidence that had previously been shaken became firm once more.

Seeing Tushan Lingling's calm expression, he could not help but sneer.

Still putting on an act in front of me?

I'll make you understand just how vast the gap between a Soul Sage and a Soul Emperor really is!

With that thought, Ye Zhiyuan suddenly stomped forward with his right foot, leaned slightly forward, and assumed a running stance.

The next instant, he pushed off with the toes of his left foot, bent his right knee, and exerted force. The moment he lunged forward, he abruptly vanished from where he stood!

Cries of alarm rang out from the audience, all of them shocked by Ye Zhiyuan's explosive increase in strength!

Yet Tushan Lingling suddenly closed her eyes, the toes of her right foot, wrapped in black leather boots, lightly tapping the ground!

In an instant, a wave of pale pink Soul Power erupted, immediately forming a cylindrical shield around Tushan Lingling!

"Third Spirit Ability—Impenetrable Defense!"

Almost the instant the shield formed, a glittering golden fist slammed into it.

The immense force made the shield hum, yet failed to cause even the slightest ripple!

"Bang bang bang bang bang!"

Golden fists rained down upon the shield, but they were never able to inflict any damage upon Tushan Lingling's barrier!

Inside, Tushan Lingling was so bored that she even licked the back of her hand.

Her charming, adorable, and seductive appearance secretly stirred the hearts of quite a few perverts!

But Ye Zhiyuan grew more alarmed with every strike, while a trace of fury continued to rise in his chest!

His strength had already reached the Soul Sage level, so why could he still not hurt this Soul Emperor woman?

Was this woman really, truly only a Soul Emperor?!

"Damn it!!"

Ye Zhiyuan roared unwillingly, clenched both fists, raised his head, and let out a long howl toward the sky.

"Martial Soul Avatar—!!"

As soon as the words fell, his Soul Power aura doubled once more!

A dense golden glow emerged across his body, making him seem as though he had grown an entire size larger!

At the same time, his black bandage Martial Soul appeared around his hands once more.

Only this time, rather than wrapping around his hands as before, it turned into something like iron chains, tightly gripped within his enormous phantom hands!

The colossal phantom of his Martial Soul Avatar seemed to be holding a cold black iron chain, creating an intense visual impact across the Great Soul Arena!

"Hah—!!"

As Ye Zhiyuan's true body swung the black bandages in his hands,

the enormous Martial Soul phantom likewise swung its oversized bandages, smashing them toward the shield around Tushan Lingling!

With a deafening "Clang—"!

The cylindrical shield, which had not shown the slightest fluctuation before, finally rippled faintly!

Delight immediately flashed in Ye Zhiyuan's eyes. As though he had found the drive to keep fighting, he repeatedly lashed the black bandages against the shield like a whip!

Every strike produced an ear-splitting boom and violent waves of Soul Power!

"So noisy..."

Tushan Lingling, inside the shield, could not help frowning. She looked up at the enormous Martial Soul phantom and muttered softly.

"This should be your strongest trump card, right?"

"Since you've exhausted all your tricks, Master probably won't object if I defeat you now."

With that thought, Tushan Lingling finally lost the last trace of her patience!

She held her left hand flat before her, formed a fox hand seal over it with her right hand, and circulated the Soul Power within her body along a peculiar route!

Fourth Spirit Ability—Fox Charm Nightmare Path!!

As the spirit ability activated, each of the nine huge tails floating behind Tushan Lingling seemed to transform into a Fox Demon, opening its bewitching eyes!

The next moment, they all detached from behind Tushan Lingling's rear, flying straight out of the shield like wandering ghosts and pouncing toward Ye Zhiyuan!

Seeing nine strange white Fox Demons, mist-like as clouds, flying toward him,

Ye Zhiyuan's expression changed dramatically. He hurriedly lashed his bandages at those seductive white foxes!

Yet to his horror, his boxing bandages passed straight through the white foxes, utterly unable to stop them in the slightest!

As the white foxes drew closer and closer,

Ye Zhiyuan desperately squeezed out what little Soul Power he had left, gathering it in the right fist of the Martial Soul avatar before smashing it toward the white foxes!

With a dull "Crack!", Ye Zhiyuan clearly felt that he had shattered something!

"Did it work?!"

Before the smile could fully form on Ye Zhiyuan's face, the next instant, a horrifying sight shattered it completely!

The front of his Martial Soul avatar's fist was torn open by the long, sharp jaws of a giant fox!

Tearing pain also surged from his right fist!

A gigantic, vicious-looking white fox had opened its bloody maw and bitten clean through the entire arm of the Martial Soul avatar, starting from its fist!

With his Martial Soul Avatar severely damaged and little Soul Power remaining, Ye Zhiyuan spat out a mouthful of blood that sprayed a full three meters away!

His right arm throbbed with agonizing pain, as though it had been crushed between fangs!

The next moment, before his despairing and unwilling eyes, the giant white fox formed from the nine white foxes flashed before him in an instant. Its open jaws looked capable of swallowing and killing him in a single bite!

Intense fear immediately erupted from the depths of his heart!

At the very last moment, he shouted with all his strength, "I... I surrender—!!"

As the final word left his mouth, the giant white fox's bloody maw, halfway through biting down, abruptly stopped.

Under Ye Zhiyuan's trembling gaze, the giant white fox opened its jaws again and pulled away from his body.

Its bewitching, profound fox eyes glared fiercely at him before it transformed into nine streaks of white light and returned behind Tushan Lingling's rear!

And so, this seemingly intense but almost entirely one-sided soul battle finally came to an end with Ye Zhiyuan's surrender!

As the battle concluded, the audience stands unexpectedly fell utterly silent!

But the next moment, countless furious roars and curses surged like a tidal wave toward Ye Zhiyuan and Tushan Lingling!

"Trash! Ye Zhiyuan, you really are complete trash!"

"You couldn't even beat a Soul Emperor with Soul Sage-level strength. Do you still have the nerve to stay alive?!"

"I seriously suspect this is how your Great Soul Arena scams people out of their money! I demand a thorough investigation! Security! Where's the security?!"

"You filthy bitch, are you trying to destroy our happy families? Fixed match! This has to be a fixed match!! Damn it, refund our money!!"

Just as the enraged audience was about to erupt into a riot,

at the crucial moment, a dignified and domineering voice suddenly rang out from the loudspeakers!
