Chapter 133 Evolve Again
As the mysterious and powerful aura from afar drew closer, Ye Shuli and Jiang Ye stood ready.
The air around them seemed to freeze, a tense atmosphere enveloped them, and even their breathing became heavy.
Ye Shuli's heart pounded like a drum in her chest. She held Jiang Ye's hand tightly, and the two exchanged glances, their understanding unwavering.
"They're here!" Jiang Ye said in a low voice, the light on his short sword shining brightly in the night.
Ye Shuli nodded, the divine weapon in her hand trembling slightly, as if responding to the upcoming challenge.
Just then, a figure flew over at high speed; it was Young Master Lin.
His eyes flashed with an overbearing light, clearly believing that Ye Shuli had not fully recovered from the previous battle.
He sneered, and the longsword in his hand transformed into a streak of light, piercing straight into Ye Shuli's chest.
"Prepare to die!" Young Master Lin's voice was filled with confidence and murderous intent.
However, Ye Shuli was already prepared.
She deftly dodged the attack by sidestepping.
The divine artifact rapidly condensed in her hand, transforming into a dazzling light that struck Young Master Lin directly.
Young Master Lin felt a powerful force coming from his chest, and he was sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground.
The surrounding cultivators were immediately astonished, and exclamations of surprise rose and fell.
"This...how is this possible!" Young Master Lin struggled to his feet, staring at Ye Shuli in disbelief.
Ye Shuli smiled faintly, a smug smile playing on her lips: "What? You're not convinced?"
Just then, she suddenly felt an even more powerful aura coming from two directions at the same time.
Her eyes narrowed, and she knew in her heart that something was wrong.
Jiang Ye also sensed this threat, and his expression became even more serious.
"Li'er, be careful!" he shouted a warning.
At the same time as Ye Shuli, two figures rapidly approached from different directions, the air filled with a suffocating killing intent.
"Come on, let me show you true power!" Ye Shuli's voice was firm and confident, and her eyes shone with an indomitable light.
The evil alchemist smiled sinisterly, his withered fingers pointing at Ye Shuli as if he wanted to crush her.
"Little girl, obediently hand over the divine artifact, and this old man might leave you with a whole corpse!" The white-browed old Taoist had a hypocritical look on his face, chanting some incomprehensible incantation. With a flick of his whisk, a sharp gust of wind rushed towards Ye Shuli.
The two, one on the left and one on the right, worked in perfect harmony, like two venomous snakes, trying to entangle and devour Ye Shuli.
"Damn! Two against one, can't take this!" Jiang Ye complained, then flashed off and headed straight for Hu Dahan.
Although this guy isn't very bright, his strength shouldn't be underestimated. We have to deal with him first before we can free up our hands to help Ye Shuli.
Ye Shuli suddenly felt the pressure increase, as the attacks from the evil alchemist and the white-browed old Taoist were like a storm, making it difficult for her to defend herself.
The surrounding space seemed to freeze, greatly restricting her movements.
"Tsk, are you serious? I'll play along to the end!" Ye Shuli gritted her teeth, the artifact buzzing in her hand, emitting dazzling light, and a powerful energy was constantly accumulating.
"Trying to trap me? No way!" Ye Shuli shouted, and the divine artifact suddenly burst forth with dazzling light. A vast energy wave swept outwards from her center.
This energy wave contained a world-destroying power, as if it would turn everything to dust.
With a deafening boom, the energy wave collided with the attacks of the evil alchemist and the white-browed old Taoist, unleashing a thunderous sound.
The surrounding trees were uprooted, and a huge crater was blasted into the ground.
The evil alchemist and the white-browed Taoist priest were blasted away by the powerful energy wave, crashing heavily to the ground, spitting blood and looking utterly disheveled.
"This...how is this possible!" The white-browed Taoist priest stared wide-eyed in horror. He never imagined that Ye Shuli would possess such powerful strength.
The evil alchemist turned deathly pale, his heart filled with fear.
He originally thought Ye Shuli was just a little girl in the early stage of Spirit Realm, but he didn't expect her to be hiding her strength. This power has far exceeded the scope of the early stage of Spirit Realm.
Ye Shuli stood proudly, the divine weapon in her hand gleaming, like a war god.
"With such meager skills, you dare to try and steal my divine artifact? You're truly overestimating yourself!"
"Li'er, so powerful and awesome!" Jiang Ye's voice came from afar. While he was fighting with Hu Dahan, he didn't forget to cheer Ye Shuli on.
Ye Shuli's lips curled up slightly, and a surge of heroic ambition welled up in her heart.
She knew that the battle was not over yet, and even greater challenges lay ahead.
She took a deep breath and looked firmly ahead.
"Heh, this is just the beginning..." Young Master Lin's voice suddenly rang out, tinged with coldness and anger...
Young Master Lin got up from the ground again, his eyes bloodshot, the flames of anger almost consuming him.
"You bastard! I'll kill you!" he roared, his hands rapidly forming hand seals, a powerful spiritual energy surging around him.
"Heavenly Thunder Technique! Break!" A dazzling purple lightning bolt descended from the sky, carrying destructive power, and struck Ye Shuli directly.
The onlookers gasped in surprise. This Heavenly Thunder Technique was Young Master Lin's signature move, incredibly powerful. Even a mid-stage Spirit Venerable expert wouldn't dare to take it head-on.
"Li'er, be careful!" Jiang Ye, who was fighting with Hu Dahan in the distance, couldn't help but exclaim in alarm.
Ye Shuli remained completely unfazed, a disdainful smile playing on her lips.
"That's it? A mere trick, yet you dare to show off your skills before an expert?" A glint flashed in her eyes as she quickly analyzed the trajectory and energy distribution of the lightning.
Although the Heavenly Thunder Technique is powerful, its attack range is relatively concentrated and its speed is not too fast. As long as you find the right opportunity, you can easily dodge it.
In the blink of an eye, just as the lightning was about to strike her, Ye Shuli dodged the attack with a nimble movement, like a nimble swallow.
At the same time, the divine artifact in her hand shone brightly, and a golden beam shot towards Young Master Lin like a sharp arrow.
Young Master Lin had no time to react. He was struck by the golden light and sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
His face was pale, and his eyes were filled with terror and despair.
The surrounding cultivators were dumbfounded; this was simply unbelievable!
Young Master Lin was actually beaten so badly by a little girl in the early stage of Spirit Realm that he was completely powerless to fight back!
Just who exactly is Ye Shuli?
"Wow, Li'er, you're amazing!" Jiang Ye shouted excitedly, wielding his short sword with incredible speed and power, quickly overwhelming Hu Dahan until he could barely breathe.
Ignoring the astonishment of the crowd, Ye Shuli took advantage of their moment before they could react and dashed toward the place where the evil alchemist stored his materials.
Upon seeing this, the evil alchemist was shocked and tried to stop him, but Jiang Ye held him back tightly.
"Damn brat! Get out of my way!" the evil alchemist roared, but he couldn't shake off Jiang Ye's entanglement no matter what he did.
He watched helplessly as Ye Shuli broke through his multiple defenses and took away the precious materials he had painstakingly collected.
"Aaaaah! My materials! My treasures!" The evil alchemist let out a shrill scream, like a stray dog. The little monsters around him laughed gleefully, as if mocking his incompetence and stupidity.
After receiving the materials, Ye Shuli smiled smugly.
She turned to look at Jiang Ye, "Let's go, we should go and complete the final step..."
Jiang Ye delivered a beautiful roundhouse kick, striking Hu Dahan squarely in the chin. Hu Dahan screamed and flew out like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground and unable to get up for a long time.
"Knockout win! Li'er, all done!" Jiang Ye tossed his hair casually, not forgetting to wink at Ye Shuli.
On Ye Shuli's side, the smoke cleared, revealing her spotless figure, as if the earth-shattering energy fluctuations just now had nothing to do with her.
"All done, let's go home for dinner!" Ye Shuli smiled and walked towards Jiang Ye.
The two met in the center of the battlefield, surrounded by devastation, with dust and the smell of blood filling the air.
However, all of that seemed to vanish the moment their eyes met.
"Li'er, are you alright?" Jiang Ye asked with concern, his eyes filled with heartache.
Although the battle just now was exciting, he was on tenterhooks the whole time, fearing that Ye Shuli would get hurt.
"Of course it's fine. Don't you know who I am?" Ye Shuli raised an eyebrow, her eyes gleaming with confidence.
"These few small fry aren't even enough to fill my teeth."
"Yes, yes, my Li'er is the best." Jiang Ye affectionately ruffled Ye Shuli's hair, and the surrounding air seemed to become sweeter, filled with a strong sense of warmth.
The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.
The tacit understanding and trust between them no longer need to be expressed in words.
"Alright, enough with the nonsense, let's hurry up and evolve the artifact." Ye Shuli's smile faded, and her expression became serious.
"Yes, everything is ready, just waiting for your command." Jiang Ye nodded and handed the materials in his hand to Ye Shuli.
Ye Shuli took the materials, took a deep breath, and walked to a relatively flat place.
She sat cross-legged, placed the materials in front of her, formed a mudra with her hands, and muttered incantations.
As the incantation was chanted, the surrounding spiritual energy began to surge wildly into Ye Shuli's body, forming a huge vortex.
The artifact also began to emit a dazzling light and hum, as if responding to Ye Shuli's summons.
Time passed second by second, the surrounding spiritual energy became more and more abundant, and the light of the divine artifact became more and more intense.
Finally, with a crisp ringing sound, the artifact's evolution was complete!
A powerful energy fluctuation emanated from Ye Shuli and spread outwards.
The surrounding trees were blown about and the ground began to shake.
Ye Shuli slowly opened her eyes, her eyes flashing with a sharp light, and a powerful pressure emanated from her body.
She felt her body was full of power, as if she could control everything.
"Finally... I succeeded!" Ye Shuli gripped the divine artifact tightly, her heart filled with joy and excitement.
However, at that moment, a strong sense of crisis welled up in my heart.
She looked up into the distance and saw several powerful auras rapidly approaching.
"Damn it, those old guys are here..." Ye Shuli's expression changed, and she thought to herself that something was wrong.
