Chapter 730 (2/2)

Nor did the Yan Family patriarch show any intention of helping him.

Facing this situation, Bai Yi’s heart gradually sank.

At this moment, he couldn’t help but regret betraying the Yan Family patriarch previously in order to seize the Water Element of the Five Elements True Spirit.

If only he hadn’t engaged in such betrayal, the Yan Family patriarch might still have helped him.

Instead of how it is now, finding himself in such a situation with no one to help.

Just as the fight between them was about to break out, Bai Yi was regretting his actions.

Suddenly, an anomaly occurred.

The entire sky and earth began to shake abruptly.

The previously calm sea below started churning violently.

At the same time, the spiritual power in the area also became rampant.

With the anomaly appearing, colors began to emerge within the vast white fog.

These colors were of the Five Elements, as if hidden rainbows of all colors were concealed in the fog.

Such a phenomenon caused those who were about to fight to stop instantly.

Even Lin Jing, who was observing everything from within the System Space, couldn’t help but look towards the colorful glowing mist.

Realizing what this phenomenon was, Lin Jing immediately understood.

It was the Soul Tomb.

The Soul Tomb had appeared.

As the multicolored light appeared, Bai Yi was the first to realize.

Because

when the white fog appeared, Bai Yi suddenly felt his spiritual power had returned to normal and could be controlled by him again.

After this realization, Bai Yi quickly retracted his spiritual power and immediately planned to escape.

This action of his was naturally sensed by Li Mingwu.

Li Mingwu looked at the Spirit-Integration Demon Jade in his hand, which had returned to its original pale violet semitransparent state.

This anomaly had actually interfered with the Spirit-Integration Demon Jade in his possession.

Now that the Spirit-Integration Demon Jade could not be used, Li Mingwu hurriedly took action and chased after him.

Li Mingwu’s cultivation was already high, and Bai Yi, having his spiritual power absorbed by the Spirit-Integration Demon Jade, had his cultivation greatly reduced.

Now it was only left at the third level of Divinity Transformation.

Escaping was simply impossible.

Seeing Li Mingwu about to catch up, and with his own escape thwarted,

in this desperate situation, Bai Yi seemed to regain his old courage, his eyes hardened with determination, and he turned around to charge at Li Mingwu.

Just as Li Mingwu had said, Bai Yi had indeed been a righteous man full of spirit in the past.

However, ever since he took the position of Island Master of Yue Tian Island, Bai Yi had gradually changed.

Perhaps there really was some scheming from Li Mingwu.

Or perhaps, having held the position of Island Master over the years, Bai Yi had truly changed.

Gradually, the spirited nature was no longer in Bai Yi, and in its place was a more cunning and calculative demeanor.

Otherwise, based on the Bai Yi of the past,

he would not have caused harm to his own allies under any circumstances.

But now,

at this critical juncture of life and death, it seemed to have sparked Bai Yi’s true nature.

The aura he once had seemed to return.

Even facing Li Mingwu, whose cultivation was far superior, Bai Yi charged up resolutely.

Just as the two were about to confront each other head-on, however, another figure suddenly appeared beside Bai Yi.

This figure was the patriarch of the Yan Family.

After appearing, the Yan Family patriarch directly sacrificed a green magical treasure resembling bamboo.

Then he activated the magical treasure, forming countless bamboo shadows in the air, blocking Li Mingwu.

Seeing this scene, Bai Yi was immediately stunned.

On the other side, Li Mingwu’s face turned iron blue, staring intently at the Yan Family patriarch:

“Yan Yujiang, are you really going against me to save Bai Yi?”

The Yan Family patriarch did not answer immediately but took out the Space Ring and handed it to Bai Yi.

“Unseal the prohibition on this, and I will spare your life.”

After saying just that, the Yan Family patriarch remained silent, continuing to face Li Mingwu and staying on guard.

Bai Yi glanced at the Yan Family patriarch, said nothing, and started disarming the seal on the Space Ring.

This time, Bai Yi did not play any tricks.

Because he knew, with his current cultivation level, whether facing Li Mingwu or the Yan Family patriarch, he was bound to die.

Under these circumstances, the Yan Family patriarch stepping forward to protect him was already unexpected enough.

At this point, as long as he could save his own life, Bai Yi would agree to any condition posed by the Yan Family patriarch.

No other reason.

Just because the current Bai Yi had no other choice.

And compared to Li Mingwu, the Yan Family patriarch was more trustworthy.
