Chapter 665 The Last Hope!

Yang Qiangjing and Yang Min have reached the half-step Nascent Soul stage, and they both possess extremely strong combat abilities.

His research into magical techniques far surpasses that of ordinary people.

They can make good use of all the power bestowed upon them by their ancestors!
When the incident first occurred, Yang Genshuo had already begun searching for the power that would complement the two of them!

"Combining the fire-elemental talents of all my Yang family members with Yang Qiangjin's!"

[Miracle: Ancestor, grant me power!]

[Borrowing the innate talents of the Yang family descendants: 'Spiritual Body', 'Calamity Flame Eyes', 'Blazing Heart Resonance', and 'Disaster Fire', and granting them to Yang Qiangjin.]

In an instant, countless golden rays of light fell upon Yang Qiangjin. She had gathered all the fire-type talents of the Yang family descendants, large and small, into herself, and her fire-type combat power directly doubled!
"Gather all the earth and water elemental talents of the Yang family and give them to Yang Min!"

[Miracle: Ancestor, grant me power!]

[Borrowing the innate talents of the Yang family descendants—'Immovable as a Mountain,' 'Deep Sea Traveler,' 'Mountain Peak Body,' and 'Water Soft Body'—and bestowing them upon Yang Min.]

More golden light fell on Yang Min's head, doubling his combat power against both water and earth elements!
Both of their celestial and terrestrial forms suddenly expanded!

They have a more profound understanding of the great principles governing the universe.

With so many descendants in the Yang family, each with their own unique talents, there are even more that can be utilized!
Even the combination of mortal and earth-level talents can lead to a qualitative change, allowing a person to break through the limits of their abilities in a certain area!
With so many talents possessed by the Yang family descendants, two of them, who had already reached the limit of power that the Golden Core stage could achieve, directly broke through the limit!

But this is not over yet!
Yang Genshuo once again mobilized his abilities.

"Bestow upon Yang Qiangjin and Yang Min all talents that can provide basic ability enhancements, regardless of type!"

【miracle!】

[Borrowing the innate talents of the Yang family descendants: 'Madman,' 'Dragon Essence Protection,' 'Night Wanderer,' 'Split Rebirth,' and 'Fool,' and bestowing them upon Yang Qiangjin and Yang Min.]

The golden light in the sky transformed into a golden pillar, completely enveloping Yang Qiangjin and Yang Min!

All the descendants of the Yang family were stunned.

"So this is divine light descending from heaven?"

"This blessing from our ancestor is more terrifying than a thunderbolt from heaven!"

"My aunt and older brother have such a terrifying aura!"

For this final blessing, Yang Genshuo directly added the talent that increases basic stats to both of them!

Fully fill up all the luck-boosting items too!

When faced with a desperate situation, luck is a cultivator's last resort.

Furthermore, Yang Genshuo also added a large amount of physical cultivation talent to the two of them.

The Heavenly-level talent [Night Wanderer] directly caused black wings to grow on the backs of the two, granting them the ability to fly at high speed, and greatly increasing their demonic energy and physique in the dark!

Yang Min, who was already using demonic energy to power his body for "demonic transformation," was now even more powerful, undergoing an even deeper catalysis!

"what!!!"

Yang Min's body swelled up again, and the spiritual power within him became even more violent!
Cang Jingkong, who was originally larger than the two of them, had now been caught up by the two people who had suddenly burst into action.

"You think you can turn my turf upside down?!"

Its eyes glared angrily, and its two large hands came crashing down towards Yang Min and Yang Qiangjin!

The surrounding area transformed into countless flesh and blood puppets, tearing at Yang Qiangjing and Yang Min's bodies from all directions.

But at this moment, the two have undergone a qualitative change!
boom!
boom!
Cang Jingkong's two arms were forcibly hoisted above his head by the two men.

This time, neither of them backed down an inch!

"Even those in the Nascent Soul stage are not invincible!"

Yang Min forcefully lifted Cang Jingkong's arms with both hands, and the surrounding scarlet space began to tremble wildly!
"ha!!!"

The two Golden Core cultivators unleashed unparalleled power, managing to withstand the combined attack of the Nascent Soul cultivator's domain and the Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth!
The space trembled, and spiritual energy overflowed!
Cang Jingkong's deformed mountain of flesh trembled and unleashed tremendous power—the true power of the Dharma of Heaven and Earth!

But Yang Min and Yang Qiangjin were in no way inferior to it, and they withstood all its power.

"No, it's impossible!"

Cang Jingkong became extremely angry, and the surrounding area began to boil!
Within the red domain, countless corpses rose from the ground, as did countless wronged souls beneath the dynasty.

One after another, thin, bony figures reached out and grabbed at the feet of Yang Min and Yang Qiangjin.

They attempted to use the power of the domain to control the two of them.

"Auntie, our fate hinges on this moment. Break its domain!"

"it is good!"

Yang Qiangjin and Yang Min flapped their wings, increasing their strength by another third, reaching their current limit!
With a sudden burst of force, he shoved Cang Jingkong's body away!

Then, the two of them fell together!
"Nine-Sun Spear!"

Yang Qiangjin transformed into the Phoenix God, and her spear pierced out thousands of sacred flames!

"The spirit of the vast ocean, heaven and earth shattered!"

Yang Min's body was wreathed in purple demonic energy, and his two mid-grade spiritual artifacts transformed into two streams of light, closely following Yang Qiangjin, and crashed into the edge of the red domain.

boom! ! ! !

This combined attack has changed the very fabric of the world!

The domain held up for only a moment before the space collapsed instantly, like shattered glass!

It transformed into countless red specks of light that scattered around, and the white light shone in again.
It revealed what the original granary looked like.

On the ground, there were cartloads of grain offered by the people.

"We're out!?"

Yang Zhu said it out loud in disbelief.

Yang Minke shouted, "Everyone, follow me!"

They must break through now!

With the help of the ancestor, Yang Qiangjin and Yang Min displayed strength beyond the Golden Core realm, shattering the Nascent Soul domain that imprisoned everyone!
This opened up a path to survival for other members of the Yang family!
No one else can get involved in this level of combat. The biggest help they can give is to run away!

"Come on!"

"Withdraw!"

"Big brother, aunt, come out quickly!"

With one heart and one mind, the Yang family flew directly out of the granary. The light outside was still dazzling, but its real warmth shone in the hearts of all the Yang family members.

They came back to life.

Then, everyone looked at the granary behind them.

We await the return of the two heroes.

Yang Genshuo thought so too.

"We've finally succeeded. As long as you can escape, we're in luck!"

Although Cang Jingkong, this monster, suffered some damage after his domain was broken, he was, after all, a true Nascent Soul stage cultivator.
"Ancestor, I want to give it a try."

Yang Min said, floating in the air.

"Don't act rashly! You can't kill it!"

Yang Genshuo immediately objected.

“Ancestor, I can sense that there is another power within this guy, a power completely opposite to the one before. As long as we can defeat it, we can obtain the gift of that power.”

Yang Qiangjin nodded in agreement.

"I felt it too. This power is as great as that flower. Xiaomin, your aunt is with you!"

Yang Genshuo's eyes widened. "Are you two crazy?"

If you don't run now, when will you wait?

"Staying alive is the most important thing for you!"

Yang Genshuo directly manifested his power, and a line of large golden characters appeared above the heads of the two people.

Yang Min's expression remained resolute.

“Ancestor, I know what I’m doing. This is a step I have to take.”

"Ancestor, you have bestowed upon us such immense power, which must have consumed a great deal of your immortal energy. We will not waste it!"

Yang Qiangjin had a clear understanding of the ancestor's spellcasting, knowing that every blessing came at a price.

Yang Genshuo did spend a lot of money on incense offerings, but since it hadn't been used for a hundred years and had accumulated enough, he didn't care about these extra few offerings.

but
"Since you've made up your minds, I won't say any more. I've given you all the help I could. Now it's up to you to make your own decisions."

"Thank you for your kindness, Ancestor!"

With the support of their ancestor, the two were able to reach a consensus.

They confronted Cang Jingkong.

At this moment, Cang Jingkong's body emitted a deep red glow, and his domain expanded once again.

“Aunt, Cang Jingkong’s domain has changed. Before, it was an open white domain, but Guard Li fed it something, which is why it has become this strange.”

"If we want to overcome it, we must find the root cause of this change."

The two people now possessed spiritual power as abundant as a surging river, and their two enormous illusory images of the cosmos were imbued with supreme power.

Even with that open domain, the two could not get close.

"Its power certainly doesn't exist out of thin air. It's not a person but a complex of ideas. We need to start from the idea aspect."

Yang Qiangjin also noticed some clues.

What they were facing was not a proper Nascent Soul cultivator, but a legendary soul, a mental entity possessing Nascent Soul power.

"You lowly people! You have angered me! I will cut off your food supply and starve your families and fellow villagers to death! I will turn you into corpses!"

Cang Jingkong blew out a scarlet wind, carrying a unique power that swept over!

Yang Min and Yang Qiangjin sensed that they could not withstand this special power, so they both tried to dodge it.

But this evil wind circled around and came back again, changing direction several times before finally entangling the two of them.

Suddenly!

Their stomachs quickly deflated, and a hunger from their very souls devoured them!

Yang Min: "I'm so hungry."

"I really want to eat something, anything is fine."

Yang Qiangjin: "My strength is slipping away."

"This is bad! If this continues, our Heaven and Earth Dharma Form will not be able to be maintained!"

This gust of wind seemed to directly alter the physical state of the two people, turning them from a normal state into starving monks who hadn't eaten for who knows how long. Their originally firm beliefs were replaced by the instinctive urge to eat.

"There's such a spell?"

Yang Genshuo was taken aback!
They literally turned two people into starving ghosts!?
He knew all too well how terrible this situation could be.

When people are not full, they only care about one thing.
Yang Min and Yang Qiangjin's eyes were practically glowing with hunger!

The most terrifying thing is that the various spiritual foods and pills they took out from their storage rings had absolutely no effect!
Their bellies continued to shrink, as if a black hole inside was sucking in all their strength.

No matter how much you eat, you'll never be satisfied.

"Hehehe~ Taste the bitterness of hunger! I am the God of Granaries, who oversees all the granaries in the world! How dare you lowly commoners defy me?"

Cang Jingkong's expression became increasingly distorted, and his entire body was no longer recognizable as human.

It looks like a rat, a corpse, a ghost, and a demon, but it's completely unlike a human.

Taking advantage of the two's 'illness', they rushed up again!

Every move he made was like a demon being unleashed, and Yang Qiangjin and Yang Min, who were originally evenly matched, were forced to retreat one after another.

Yang Min and Yang Qiangjin used all sorts of methods, but they still couldn't control their extreme hunger and loss of strength. In the blink of an eye during their fight with Cang Jingkong, their minds and bodies were undergoing tremendous torment.

It could completely collapse at any moment!
"Is this the power of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator? Such terrifying ability. If they can't get out of this state, Yang Min and Yang Qiangjin are doomed."

Yang Genshuo can confirm this.

"What to do? How to break this deadlock?"

What other abilities do I have?

"Talents... I've already given you all the talents you can use!"

Not only were they gifted with talent, but they were also given all sorts of blessings.

There were absolutely no other novel methods.
This led Yang Genshuo to start thinking about a question.

"What exactly was that move? Why does it look so familiar?"

"Like some kind of curse?"

"Wait! It seems it just said 'turn you into floating corpses,' and Guard Li was a floating corpse. Can Cang Jingkong turn people into floating corpses? And then they're no longer human? Is this some kind of rule?"

How can we break this rule?

"The hordes of zombies outside are constantly overthrowing the dynasty's rule, and the ranks of zombies outside the capital are growing ever larger."

"Damn it! There's something right in front of me, but I just can't grab it!"

Yang Genshuo felt that the key to solving the problem seemed to lie hidden in these strange relationships and identities, but he just couldn't figure it out.
Just as Yang Genshuo was suffering from a splitting headache, the three puzzle solvers returned from outside the granary.

Puzzle solvers number 2, 6, and 9.

"Miss, young master, please allow us to lend you a hand!"

"We've discovered something suspicious."

"If this story wasn't a story of certain death, then we wouldn't be forced into a battle we were destined to lose. There must be a solution behind this!"

Yang Qiangjin shouted angrily, "Who gave you permission to come back! Your mission is to get them out of here!"

Station 6 stepped forward and said, "We have enough partners to get them out of here. We have something more important to do now. Please trust our judgment!"

Number 2: "Nothing here is necessarily fatal. We've actually been trapped in the story's snare all day!"

Number 9: "The level of understanding isn't important; the story is!"

The three people's deafening voices suddenly snapped the taut string in Yang Genshuo's mind!

"I see!"

"The one who tied the knot must untie it! Cang Jingkong is not our enemy!"

"Our real enemy is actually Guard Li, who sabotaged our operation. He corrupted Cang Jingkong, and now you must help Cang Jingkong return to the right state!"

"Look inside Cang Jingkong's head, there is a red flower!"

The ancestor's voice descended from the sky, bringing the two who were in the middle of the battle back to their senses. They saw the flower with only one shape inside Cang Jingkong's distorted face.

"You can't kill it, but you can help it find liberation!"

"This is your last hope!"
