Chapter 1480: Chapter 1479: The Method of Breaking Through the Siege

Moreover, compared to the Green-faced Ghost, the Bone Woman is undoubtedly more powerful. The latter is not only a more ancient Ghost God, but her innate strength far surpasses that of the Green-faced Ghost. If she could be controlled by him, there is no doubt that it would increase the power of their Izumo Shrine by more than double.

With a flash of greed in his eyes, Heize Seimei muttered an ancient mantra, and the Green-faced Ghost shadow behind him grew increasingly solid, fiercely attacking the Bone Woman.

At the moment the Bone Woman appeared, Hong Ye’s face turned even paler. Her body had already reached its limit, and at this moment, she was burning her life force to wield the Bone Woman’s power, very likely unable to hold on past the next second, and completely collapse.

Seemingly aware of Hong Ye’s emergency situation, the Bone Woman struck out with a palm upon her appearance. Flames spread in the area where her palm seal appeared, burning the boundless black mist to nothing. This palm strike shattered the towering Green-faced Ghost shadow with astonishing momentum!

Amid those horrified gazes, the Green-faced Ghost shadow collapsed, and overwhelming black gas surged outward. Even Heize Seimei was taken aback; he anticipated the Bone Woman’s true power was extraordinary, but didn’t expect that with just one move, the Green-faced Ghost clone he summoned would be shattered, proving powerless.

However, he was prepared. After him, Tu Yumen and several other Great Yin-Yang Masters launched successive attacks on Hong Ye, giving her no chance to catch her breath!

Seeing Hong Ye trapped in a perilous situation, Ling Chen’s eyes flickered. His injuries couldn’t be healed in the short term. If Hong Ye were defeated by Heize Seimei, he’d be the next target.

Yet, even now, he had no strategy to defeat the enemy, but he couldn’t bear to watch Hong Ye being overtaken by this relentless onslaught.

He could only give it his all!

Ling Chen took a deep breath, ready to draw his sword and rush up to assist Hong Ye.

"Kid, going up now won’t make any difference; it’ll be like a moth to a flame."

Just then, the Human Emperor’s voice suddenly echoed in Ling Chen’s mind.

"Master, do you have any ideas?"

Ling Chen’s eyes flickered slightly. If the Human Emperor had a solution, he wouldn’t need to resort to such desperate measures and gamble with his life.

"There’s only one way."

The Human Emperor’s voice became extremely grave.

"What way?"

Ling Chen’s eyes shone brightly. 𝘧𝓇ℯℴ𝓂

"Use the power of this Avatar of Will."

The Human Emperor’s voice sounded again.

"An Avatar of Will? But hasn’t this Avatar of Will been nearly depleted of power?"

Ling Chen asked, somewhat puzzled.

In the past, several times when he faced danger, he borrowed power from the Human Emperor’s Avatar of Will to overcome crises. The last time was outside the Emperor’s Tomb, where he borrowed the Human Emperor’s power to wield the Soul Destroying Sword and severely injured Dao Yi True Immortal. But since then, the Human Emperor’s power had been in decline, with very little left.

"Indeed, this Avatar of Will’s power is nearly depleted. Even if it were lent to you, it wouldn’t be enough to handle the current situation."

Confirming Ling Chen’s suspicion, the Human Emperor then shifted his tone, "However, if I perform a secret art to completely burn this Avatar of Will, it could unleash ten times its usual power!"

"Burning an Avatar of Will?"

Ling Chen was shocked. He had thought of many methods, but never expected the Human Emperor would consider such an extreme approach. If the will is burned, it means the Human Emperor’s Avatar of Will would utterly vanish from this world.

"That’s right. There’s no other way but to burn the Avatar of Will. Now that I’ve found my descendants and seen them alive and well, that’s enough. Keeping this Avatar of Will serves no purpose; it’s better to use it to completely resolve the current crisis. It’s not only for saving you but for saving my descendants as well!"

The Human Emperor resolutely declared, "Kid, I believe with your talent and ability, it won’t be long before you can reach the world where my true self resides and meet my true self."

Upon hearing this, Ling Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly. Indeed, this was only an Avatar of Will; the true Human Emperor was in another world. As long as he could cultivate to become a Supreme Expert, he could go to that world and see the Human Emperor’s true self!

Realizing this, Ling Chen’s anxiety eased considerably. Although this solution was somewhat of a sacrifice, it seemed to be the only feasible option at present!

"What should I do?"

Not hesitating for long, Ling Chen straightforwardly asked the Human Emperor what to do, sensing the urgency and preferring to act quickly rather than miss the opportunity.

"Act on my command."

As the words fell, the Human Emperor’s will power began gathering in Ling Chen’s mind, forming an image of a figure there. The next moment, Ling Chen sat cross-legged on the spot, following the Human Emperor’s instructions to form hand seals, coordinating with the will-type secret method to completely burn the Human Emperor’s Avatar of Will!

A wisp of ghostly blue flames spread around Ling Chen. Under the cover of these ghostly blue flames, a tall and erect figure was faintly shrouded within. In the midst of the ghostly blue flames’ burn, the aura rapidly intensified!

However, just as Ling Chen was burning the Human Emperor’s will, Hong Ye was nearly at her limit, her body extremely weak, barely held up by willpower alone.

"Hong Ye! You are a shrine maiden of our Izumo Shrine. I won’t harm you. Stop resisting, and everything can be discussed!"

Heize Seimei frowned and shouted harshly at Hong Ye. He feared that if Hong Ye died, he wouldn’t be able to learn the method to control the Bone Woman from her. Keeping Hong Ye was useful; otherwise, he would have already delivered a fatal blow.

But despite his words, Hong Ye acted as if she hadn’t heard. She glanced back at Ling Chen’s position, noticing the ghostly blue flames surrounding him. Her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed as she sensed Ling Chen’s aura quickly strengthening, with the trend continuing to rise!

Seeing this, her morale lifted immediately. If she could hold on a little longer, perhaps Ling Chen would soon have the means to resolve the current dilemma!

"Stubborn little wench!"

Heize Seimei’s gaze turned extremely grim. He had already advised Hong Ye twice, but she wouldn’t listen. If that’s the case, don’t blame him for being ruthless. He didn’t have time to waste here; dragging it out could lead to unexpected changes and sleepless nights!
