Yi Yi relied on the skill it had comprehended when breaking through to the Hundred Thousand Year level and finally withstood the tenth bolt of lightning.
The thunderclouds in the sky began to disperse, signifying that Yi Yi had successfully overcome its Hundred Thousand Year Lightning Tribulation.
After the dual devastation wrought by Yi Yi and the Deep Sea Demon Whale, along with the Lightning Tribulation, the area was thick with an aura of destruction, and the energy was exceptionally violent.
Spatial Rifts could be seen everywhere. Space was like a shattered mirror, with fragments occasionally falling away.
Yi Yi flapped its wings and hovered in the air. Its aura was weak, and it was in terrible condition.
Even after surviving the Lightning Tribulation, it was not happy. It immediately spat out the Time and Space Divine Tower and called for Jing Chen inside.
Jing Chen emerged from the Time and Space Divine Tower, and Yi Yi immediately appeared beneath him, carrying him on its back to keep him from falling. It also released energy to protect him.
The violent energy in this space was not something a soul master of Jing Chen's level could endure.
Jing Chen's condition was not much better than Yi Yi's. Though he had no visible injuries, he looked as if he had suffered grave wounds.
The moment he came out, he collapsed onto Yi Yi's back. His body was limp and powerless, and his breathing was ragged.
His hair, once jet-black, had turned white—completely white.
There were no wrinkles on his face, and his skin was still smooth and tender, but his life force gave off the feeling that he did not have long to live.
"Yiyi..." Yi Yi let out a mournful cry, anxious over Jing Chen's condition.
Jing Chen gently patted Yi Yi's body. After pausing for a long while, he finally forced out, "I... I'm fine. I still have a few years left to live."
He had a fairly clear sense of his current condition. He still had a few years of life force remaining.
This Life Sacrifice had reduced his originally vigorous life force to the point where he had only a few years left to live.
He was not panicking over this state. It was not as though he was about to die immediately.
His life force was depleted, which was why he only had a few years left. As long as he replenished it during that time, would he not be able to live several more years, or even decades more?
It was precisely because he clearly understood this that he was not flustered and could calmly say that he still had a few years left to live.
"Yiyi..." Yi Yi continued to cry out mournfully, worried about Jing Chen's condition.
"I told you, I'm fine. Hurry and devour the rest of that soul ring. Don't forget the soul bone either."
Jing Chen patted Yi Yi's body as he spoke. Once he finished, he fell asleep. He was simply too exhausted.
The massive loss of life force had left his entire body weak and his mind muddled, as though he had gone hungry for months.
He truly could not hold on any longer. Unable to stay awake, he fell asleep.
Yi Yi suppressed its grief and did as told, carefully flying down to continue devouring the soul ring's energy.
After devouring all the soul ring energy, it pushed aside the seawater, descended to the seabed, and retrieved the Deep Sea Demon Whale's soul bone.
Besides taking the soul bone, Yi Yi also removed the Whale Rubber from the Deep Sea Demon Whale's brain. This was an excellent item for Jing Chen.
After finishing everything, Yi Yi used its Space Shuttle skill and carried Jing Chen toward the mainland.
After absorbing the remaining energy in the soul ring, Yi Yi had recovered a fair amount of strength and had enough power to use Space Shuttle.
In the God Realm, Tang San, the Evil God, and the Good God all wore somewhat strange expressions.
"That tower should be a rare spatial treasure capable of holding living creatures. That child was inside the tower earlier."
"As for why the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger has such a close relationship with that child, that is rather difficult to explain," Tang San said slowly.
Those scenes had truly shocked him. He found them rather abnormal.
A human child actually had such a good relationship with a Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. He had never expected that.
Both the Evil God and the Good God were also surprised, realizing that the child was anything but ordinary.
"There is no need for us to dwell on this. These are mortal affairs and have little to do with us," the Good God said.
Since she could not figure it out, she could not be bothered to keep thinking about it. It had nothing to do with her anyway.
"That is true. Mortals have their own fortunes. There is no need for us to consider where their fortunes came from," the Evil God said as well.
Tang San smiled but said nothing. He bid farewell and left the Evil God Temple, still thinking about the matter along the way.
If the child had merely been close to other soul beasts, that would have been one thing. But he was intimate with a Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was supremely evil. Any human capable of getting along with it so harmoniously could not be simple.
However, compared with that child, Tang San was actually more interested in the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
In the mortal world, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's Destiny Pearl was an exceedingly rare treasure, something capable of producing a powerful deity.
Zhou Weiqing had ultimately become a first-class deity of the God Realm, the God of Destruction, because of the Origin Life Pearl of a Dark Demon Evil God Tiger more than sixty thousand years old.
He even had the potential to become a God King, which showed just how significant this Origin Life Pearl was.
An Origin Life Pearl more than sixty thousand years old was already so extraordinary. How great would the effect of one at the Hundred Thousand Year level be?
"I wonder whether Huo Yuhao, this child of fortune, has the luck to obtain this Origin Life Pearl."
Tang San found himself somewhat expectant. If Huo Yuhao could obtain this Origin Life Pearl, his future accomplishments might even rival Tang San's own.
He felt conflicted. Part of him hoped Huo Yuhao would obtain it, while another part hoped he would not.
Because if Huo Yuhao failed to obtain it, Tang San could take it for his own daughter.
"Let's see which of you has that fortune." Tang San shook his head, deciding to let nature take its course.
By letting nature take its course, he meant letting the Hundred Thousand Year Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's Origin Life Pearl go to either Huo Yuhao or Tang Wutong.
Since he had encountered such a supreme treasure, there was no way he would let an outsider benefit from it. It had to remain in his own family.
After twelve consecutive Space Shuttles, Yi Yi brought Jing Chen back to the mainland.
As a soul beast with more than seventy thousand years of cultivation, Yi Yi's maximum Space Shuttle distance had been five hundred kilometers.
Now that it had broken through to the Hundred Thousand Year level, its travel distance had increased greatly, reaching up to five thousand kilometers.
The earlier fierce battle and Lightning Tribulation, combined with the consecutive Space Shuttles just now, had left Yi Yi utterly exhausted.
The moment it landed, it collapsed onto the ground, returning to its miniature form and lying affectionately beside Jing Chen.
Both Jing Chen and Yi Yi had fallen asleep. Fortunately, they were in an uninhabited wilderness with no soul beasts around, so they were relatively safe.
After an unknown amount of time, Jing Chen woke before Yi Yi. The instant he woke, his entire body felt weak, and he was frail to the extreme.
Dragging his heavy body, Jing Chen began busying himself. He took out a pot, cleaned the soul beast meat he had frozen before, and began cooking it.
While the meat cooked in the pot, he sat limply on the ground, held Yi Yi in his arms, and helped it tidy its disheveled fur.
"It should have been unconscious for several days," Jing Chen judged based on Yi Yi's injuries.
Before falling unconscious, he had checked Yi Yi's wounds. Now, more than half of its external injuries had healed.
Even with Yi Yi's astonishing recovery ability, it would take several days to recover to this extent.
