Douluo Continent: The Purple Dragon's Roar, the End of the Dark Abyss

After watching Ye Linyi's resolute departing figure for a long time, she sighed softly, a hint of worry still lingering between her brows: "I hope you really do have a way to break the curse, and don't lose your life in vain..."

With the life-giving gold that could reshape the origin of life in his heart, Ye Linyi returned to his hotel with light steps and went straight to push open the door of room 520.

Upon entering the room, he immediately locked the door, closed the windows, and drew the curtains to block out all light. Only after confirming that it was absolutely safe did he sit cross-legged on the bed.

He held his breath, his mind instantly sinking into his spiritual sea, directly finding the quietly floating gray bead, and asked, "Electra, I've bought the item. You said it would be very useful to me, but what exactly is it useful for?"

Under Ye Linyi's gaze, the gray bead slowly wriggled and stretched, eventually transforming into a transparent and blurry old figure, its aura aged and weak, yet carrying an undeniable majesty.

"And who exactly are you? Why are you hiding in my sea of ​​consciousness?" Ye Linyi's series of questions echoed in the sea of ​​consciousness.

Electrolux spoke softly, his voice hoarse and weary: "I'll explain these things to you in detail later. For now, just follow my instructions, and I will ensure that the Gold of Life in your hands reaches its full potential."

"Can I trust you?" Ye Linyi hesitated deliberately, pretending to be wary.

"We are already one, and if you perish, my soul will also be scattered." Electrox's voice was calm but resolute.

Ye Linyi pretended to hesitate for a moment, then looked up with a firm look in his eyes: "Okay, I'll trust you this once."

"Very good, do as I say." Electrox ordered, "Take the contents out of the box."

Ye Linyi opened the wooden box as instructed and held the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife he had just bought in his hand.

"This sword was forged into a weapon by an evil spirit master, and it harbors resentment and curses within it. I will purify it first," Elex's voice rang out again.

"Okay." Ye Linyi nodded.

"Purify, gold of life!"

Electrolux let out a low shout, and the life-gold at the base of the Soul-Devouring Carving Blade suddenly glowed with a blue light. From deep within the blade came a piercing, desperate scream: "No—!"

The evil thoughts and curses that had lingered on the blade for many years vanished instantly under the pure life force of the living gold.

The once dark and menacing blade has shed all its ferocity and transformed into a carving knife as clear as jade and crystal, full of vitality and with a warm, flowing light.

Electrolux manipulated the carving knife, gently placing it in Ye Linyi's palm: "Place the tip of the knife against your brow."

Ye Linyi took a deep breath, suppressed the turmoil in his heart, and steadily placed the tip of the carving knife against his brow.

The next second, a burst of blue light erupted from the bottom of the carving knife, and a vast, pure life force, as powerful as a river, surged out and instantly enveloped his entire body.

Life force surged in from between the eyebrows, washing over the limbs and bones like a warm current. The meridians were forcibly widened, the resilience of the internal organs increased dramatically, the bones became harder, and the impurities accumulated in the body were expelled one by one.

He felt extremely comfortable all over, as if he had been reborn. His self-healing ability, cultivation speed, and physical strength all soared, and even his blood contained life force capable of healing all living beings.

Vitality surged into the sea of ​​spirit, and the originally narrow spiritual space expanded wildly, transforming into a boundless, emerald-green ocean of life.

Electrox chanted an ancient incantation, stabilizing his spiritual sea and transforming it into his own private domain.

"Hold on!"

With a low shout, Electrolux controlled the Soul-Devouring Carving Blade and thrust it fiercely towards Ye Linyi's brow!

Extreme pain instantly swept through his body. Ye Linyi clenched his fists, his knuckles turned white, his whole body trembled violently, and cold sweat soaked through his clothes.

But he gritted his teeth and remained silent.

The carving knife slowly liquefied in the blue light, turning into a pool of emerald green liquid that seeped into the wound between the eyebrows.

The wound did not heal; instead, it slowly opened under the shimmering blue-gold light, forming the outline of a vertical pupil.

The gold of life was completely integrated, condensing into a gray-green eyeball.

The soul-wrenching pain intertwined with the surging power of rebirth, and Ye Linyi almost fainted.

"Open it—the Eye of Life!" Electrox shouted encouragingly. "Kid, hang in there, it'll be done soon!"

When the last bit of power was fully integrated, Ye Linyi felt a sense of lightness throughout his body, the intense pain dissipated, and was replaced by a vast power that allowed him to control the very essence of life.

Electrolux's voice softened: "This wisp of my divine consciousness will reside in your living eye, helping to stabilize your soul. If you ever need anything in the future, simply call upon me, and I will lend a helping hand."

"Thank you very much, Elder Yi!" Ye Linyi said with heartfelt gratitude.

Exiting the sea of ​​consciousness, Ye Linyi slowly opened his eyes, feeling that the world had become clear and transparent.

He stood up, walked to the mirror, and examined his appearance.

The boy in the mirror had sharp, cold eyes, fair skin, a sharp jawline, long, dark hair, and bangs that brushed against his cheeks.

Her stunningly beautiful face exudes a coldness that keeps people at a distance, her temperament is aloof and cool, her posture is upright and elegant, and every gesture she makes is full of kingly dominance and arrogance.

Ye Linyi stroked his chin and sighed helplessly, "Sigh, he's becoming more and more like Sasuke. There's just no way around it..."

After indulging in his narcissism, he immediately sat cross-legged to cultivate, and was pleasantly surprised to find that his cultivation speed had indeed improved, but compared to his ambition, it was still as slow as a tortoise.

He stood up, intending to find a place to test the range and power of the Eternal Night Domain, when suddenly there was a knock on the door, accompanied by a coquettish and affected female voice: "Little brother~ are you there~"

Ye Linyi frowned, strode to the door, and suddenly flung it open.

Standing outside the door was a heavily made-up woman, her face covered in so much powder that it could be scraped off, and she reeked of cheap, pungent perfume.

Upon seeing Ye Linyi's handsome appearance, the woman was so stunned that she was unable to regain her senses for a long time.

After regaining her senses, she immediately started flirting with Ye Linyi, her voice sweet and seductive: "Handsome, do you need a special massage service? I guarantee you'll feel great!"

Ye Linyi's eyes were indifferent, his gaze not lingering on her at all, but instead falling on the four burly men lurking in the corner of the corridor, waiting for their chance to strike—clearly a group of thugs trying to set a trap.

Seeing that Ye Linyi was unmoved, the woman simply reached out to lean against him, flaunting her figure.

Ye Linyi remained expressionless and coldly replied, "No need, thank you."

After saying that, he closed the door, shutting the woman out.

The woman froze on the spot, her face filled with disbelief, and immediately became furious. Four burly men in the corner immediately crowded around, grinning: "Sister Ya, your charm isn't working, you can't even handle a pretty boy."

"Why not just barge in and rob him? He's all alone, what can he possibly do?"

The woman, known as "Sister Ya," was furious. She kicked the door hard and started cursing, spewing vulgarities.

After venting her anger, she gritted her teeth and said, "I refuse to believe that with my charm, I can't snag a pretty boy! You all hide here and wait for my command before coming out!"

"Okay, Sister Ya!"

The four of them retreated back to the corner.

Sister Ya adjusted her expression and called out to the door in a sweet voice, "Little brother, please open the door~ I have something good to tell you~"

After calling for a long time, there was no response from inside the house.

The burly men couldn't help but chime in again: "Sister Ya, let's just give up and force our way in!"

Sister Ya glared at them, then gave a sinister smile: "No need, I have one last trick up my sleeve. He'll definitely come out!"

She sat down on the floor by the door and started wailing, "You heartless man! You turned your back on me after you slept with me! You locked me out! Waaah..."

Inside the room, Ye Linyi's temples were throbbing with veins, and his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Very well, you've failed to live up to your chances, so don't blame me for being impolite."

He suddenly flung open the door, grabbed Sister Ya by the collar, and dragged her into the room like a chick. He slammed the door shut and locked it from the inside.

Upon seeing this, the four burly men in the corner of the corridor panicked instantly: "Sister Ya has been dragged inside! What do we do?"

"What else can we do! Charge in and beat him up!"

Inside the house, Sister Ya, still shaken from being thrown to the ground, scrambled to her feet. Looking at Ye Linyi, whose face was ashen and who exuded a menacing aura, she stammered, "W-what do you want to do?!"
