Excessive ferocity due to caution

As the decapitation echoed in the darkness, Zhao Yi turned his gaze to the Black Punishment Woman in the distance.

The aura emanating from the other party grew increasingly terrifying.

The gap that had been cleaved open by his sword energy was once again filled with immense divine power.

Moreover, this time the defense is even more robust, and it is almost impossible to break through by brute force!

While the power of evil is indeed formidable, it can only cause limited damage when its quantity is limited.

The Black Punishment Daughter was clearly well prepared for this transformation!

She would never let Zhao Yi interfere with her again!

A painful groan escaped her throat, and she slowly rose into the air amidst a beam of grayish-white light.

Facing the sky, limbs hang naturally.

The bloodstains on his body seemed weightless, like ink splashed into the gray-white beam of light, as if frozen in time.

Zhao Yi drew his sword.

The Taotie, carrying immense destructive power, slashed fiercely at the Black Punishment Woman's protective divine light.

The clanging sound of metal and stone striking each other suddenly exploded out of thin air, scattering countless clouds overhead!

It barely managed to leave a hole in the divine light.

But the hole was filled almost instantly.

She didn't give Zhao Yi any chance.

"My evolution is nearing completion."

"The power bestowed upon me by the High Priest will help me destroy all the evil here."

Zhao Yi, holding the knife, looked up at her and smiled:

"Does that include you?"

The Black-Clad Woman said:

"Everything I have belongs to the evil god, and I will naturally offer it all if needed."

"Your evil power is indeed powerful, but unfortunately, your own strength is too weak to control it."

"You will die soon."

Zhao Yi twisted his neck, and suddenly another terrifying power erupted from his body!

This power, which is almost the complete opposite of Evil's attributes, is still intertwined with Evil's power!

"This is……"

A sharp glint suddenly flashed in the eyes of the Black Punishment Woman.

She sensed the extraordinary nature of the newly emerging power within Zhao Yi.

But she had never seen this power before!

Among the Church's many studies, almost all the elemental powers in the New Age have been thoroughly investigated.

However, the church had not studied either of these two powers in Zhao Yi.

The power of evil is impossible to study; it is extremely uncontrollable.

Another force, which runs counter to Evil's will... has never been discovered.

This instilled fear in the Black Punishment Woman.

Uncertainty is the greatest danger.

Moreover, she didn't understand how Zhao Yi managed to fuse these two completely contradictory power attributes together.

That force, which ran counter to the power of evil, gradually gained the upper hand in the ensuing struggle.

Soon, the black mucus seeping from Zhao Yi's pores disappeared.

A warm glow appeared.

Then came the second, the third...

Before long, Zhao Yi transformed into a warm, bright sun.

Golden light shone on the gray divine light of the Black Punishment Woman, and began to dissolve in large swaths!

"impossible!"

The Black Punishment Woman's expression finally changed!

"What... what kind of power is this?"

She is currently evolving and cannot use her power extensively to resist.

Zhao Yi's injuries were also worsening, and he was almost falling apart!

He said to the woman of Black Punishment:

It's normal that you don't know.

"After all, the source of this power predates the Chaotic Era."

Feeling the intense heat of the golden sunlight, the Black Punishment Daughter let out a low roar.

Her entire body began to melt, just like the gray divine light.

She struggled to muster her remaining strength to fight Zhao Yi.

Because the Black Punishment Woman discovered that while the golden light was dissolving her, Zhao Yi's injuries were also worsening!

Clearly, something had happened to him as well.

Perhaps it is due to the constant interplay of these two forces.

In any case, as long as she can hold on for a little while, it will be Zhao Yi who dies!

"You won't last much longer..."

Why torture yourself like this?

"You and I both know that if this continues, you'll be the first to die!"

Black Punishment's daughter began her verbal attack, attempting to distract Zhao Yi.

However, the latter remained completely unmoved:

"Is this the only pathetic tactic you can come up with when you're completely desperate?"

"Just watch who dies first."

Zhao Yi intensified the exposure to the blazing sun.

The two disintegrated together.

The Black-Bearing Woman felt the threat of death and struggled even more fiercely!

However, his current situation is extremely awkward. He has evolved to the point of being halfway through, and whether he continues or reverts to his previous state, it will take time.

She was in a difficult situation.

As she watched herself slide step by step into the abyss of death, a strange and absurd sense of dread arose within the Black Punishment Woman.

How did they gradually fall into this predicament when faced with a swarm of ants?

There are a total of 12 rulers.

Now...it seems like we're going to be wiped out?

"Are you very resentful?"

Zhao Yi's body was torn to pieces.

At any moment, they could be scattered into a pile of mangled limbs.

But faintly, the silhouettes of butterflies could be seen flitting by, constantly mending his wounds and barely maintaining his final balance.

"How did you persuade the Qin and Jiang families?"

"I didn't put in much effort because you had already cornered them. All I had to do was let them see the truth."

"So you already knew that the four major families were going to deal with you?"

"Yes."

After a pause, Zhao Yi stood in the light and smiled:

"I even knew about it before the Qin and Jiang families."

The Black Punishment Woman's eyes were incredibly complex, flashing repeatedly, her broken body and soul almost reaching their limit.

"An undercover agent?"

She finally realized what was happening.

Zhao Yi slowly said:

"More precisely, it's a third-party force."

"Who?"

Zhao Yi did not answer her question.

Under the brilliant light of the Analects, the Black-Bearing Woman finally reached her limit, her body and soul vanishing into nothingness in the golden light.

Zhao Yi withdrew his divine power and began to heal his injuries.

The power of evil resurfaced from his body, transforming into black slime that helped Zhao Yi repair many wounds tainted by the laws of domination.

His expression was solemn.

This time, the danger of the battle was beyond imagination.

If it weren't for his protective powers, he would be dead by now.

The enlightenment Zhao Yi gained on the Path of Evil was the source of his confidence to exchange his life with the Black Punishment's daughter.

He drew the power of the Analects from the power of Evil and used it to attack the Black-Bearing Woman.

But precisely because of this, without the constraints of the Analects, the power of Evil Lai began to frantically retaliate against Zhao Yi.

It's all thanks to Xiaoyao You that things are going smoothly!

If Zhao Yi had not attained enlightenment and had not received substantial help from the Free and Unfettered Journey, he would definitely have died before the Black Punishment Woman!

After all, he was not the real Elai, but rather he temporarily gained the power of all the assassins of the Jie Sect by means of the great formation.

If he had truly broken through to the Evil Realm on his own, this fight wouldn't have been so dangerous!

Zhao Yi dispersed the power of the formation.

Countless phantoms appeared around him as he returned to the distant location of the Intercepting Sect's death warriors.

"Master..."

Wu Liang arrived, a hint of victory on his face.

He had witnessed everything that had happened. Although Zhao Yi's victory was not difficult, it was certainly dangerous.

Once Zhao Yi dies... everyone in the Jie Sect will perish because of this great formation!

P.S.: Goodnight, my darlings!
