Chapter 262: Intense Sense of Powerlessness

The strength of Gao Qi before his eyes, enhanced to such a degree, was no joke.

Just a moment ago, Ye Lin hadn't even reacted properly before that attack was already upon him.

Ye Lin had still taken quite a bit of damage; if not for the many treasures Ye Lin possessed, which shared much of the impact for him, that last attack alone might have caused serious trouble.

The things Ye Lin had harvested over these years were truly numerous.

Many of the treasures Ye Lin had plundered from the Secret Realm had been useless before.

Now, Ye Lin had quite a few he could use up.

But looking at Gao Qi's situation, Ye Lin wouldn't be able to hold out for much longer.

At this moment, Qingling, watching the blood spill from the corner of Ye Lin's mouth, realized he had no choice but to take that path.

But it could be called a massive gamble; if the bet was won, Ye Lin could step into the Void Refinement Stage, but if lost, everything would be over.

Qingling watched Ye Lin, not knowing what he was thinking, but Qingling had a decision in his heart, though these matters could not yet be told to Ye Lin.

Only when this battle ended could he speak to Ye Lin about it.

The sudden changes on Ye Lin's side attracted the attention of many.

Whether they were from the Demon Race or the Profound Heaven Sect, everyone looked toward the scene in the sky.

Seeing Ye Lin injured, the people of the Demon Race let out cheers of joy one after another.

Meanwhile, those from the Profound Heaven Sect, seeing the blood at the corner of Ye Lin's mouth, began to worry about him.

Watching this scene, Han Shi and Han Ting deeply understood how powerful the member of the Demon Race that Ye Lin was facing truly was.

That aura—the higher one's cultivation, the more one could feel it. To tell the truth, the member of the Demon Race Ye Lin was facing could wipe the two of them out with a mere wave of his hand.

There was not a shred of hope; there was simply no room for resistance.

They knew Ye Lin was strong, but in reality, when facing this member of the Demon Race, the gap between the two was too great.

Han Shi and Han Ting looked at Ye Lin, both clenching their fists, their eyes filled with unwillingness.

Han Shi watched his old friend facing such an existence, yet he was powerless in this dangerous situation, unable to help in the slightest.

Han Shi felt the insignificance of his own strength at every moment; although he had already reached the Nascent Soul Stage, he was still far from the Realm of Ye Lin and the others.

That sense of powerlessness penetrated deep into Han Shi's heart.

Han Ting was the same; watching Ye Lin in the sky, her thoughts were similar to Han Shi's.

She wanted to help Uncle Ye; Uncle Ye had always helped and taught her, but she had never been able to help Ye Lin.

At a time like this, she could only watch, with no other way to act.

The unwillingness in the eyes of Han Shi and Han Ting was intense, arguably more fierce than anyone else's.

In their hearts, Han Shi and Han Ting now had only one thought: that he must win when the time came.

Han Shi and Han Ting looked at Ye Lin, "Brother Ye, I believe in you."

"Uncle Ye."

And it was not just Han Shi and Han Ting who felt this way.

There were also Leng Jiahang, Wu Xiaofeng, and Liu Qinghe.

How could they not understand the significance of seeing such a scene?

They could also feel that deep sense of frustration and powerlessness.

The three of them couldn't help either; going over would only add to the chaos.

But all three of them knew of Ye Lin's ability to turn danger into safety.

The three had been racking their brains, constantly trying to catch up to Ye Lin's pace, but they simply couldn't.

They could only look at his back; they knew better than anyone how formidable Ye Lin was.

All the three could do now was believe in Ye Lin, while they handled the matters on their own side.

As for the miracle everyone hoped for, that would have to be created by Ye Lin himself.

Zhou Yangzi, of course, had long noticed the situation on Ye Lin's side.

The moment that aura appeared, Zhou Yangzi had sensed it; even he felt a trace of trepidation.

The feeling that something bad was about to happen.

It wasn't until the aura of the member of the Demon Race fighting Ye Lin fully erupted that Zhou Yangzi knew how troublesome this matter was.

Zhou Yangzi knew of the existence of such a secret technique; he had originally thought it had long been destroyed.

He hadn't expected it to have been found by the Demon Race.

This was a huge problem.

They had no more trump cards on their side; the only one who could deal with an existence of this level was Jiang Xue.

He was already beginning to feel exhausted by the two members of the Demon Race before him.

Let alone helping Ye Lin, and Jiang Xue currently had no time to attend to Ye Lin.

The two Void Refining Stage members of the Demon Race also noticed Zhou Yangzi's current state of mind.

The two Void Refining Stage existences of the Demon Race looked at Zhou Yangzi, "How did this happen, that even you are affected, and your strength has declined?"

"You are worried about that so-called Ye Lin; if even you are like this now, let alone others."

"You all took Ye Lin too seriously, which led to the current result. We were determined to deal with Ye Lin."

"That Ye Lin now has only one path—death. I don't believe your Profound Heaven Sect has another existence like the one from before to come and save the day."

Hearing this, Zhou Yangzi snapped back to reality; he had indeed been affected by the events on Ye Lin's side just now.

It was beyond doubt that Ye Lin was the turning point of this War between Immortals and Demons.

As long as Ye Lin could break through to the Void Refinement Stage, the outcome of this battle would be unquestionable.

The Demon Race surely had no more trump cards by now.

It was impossible for another existence like Cang You to appear, and there wouldn't even be another Void Refining Stage appearing.

Zhou Yangzi knew that worrying now was of no use.

It would be better to focus on the battle at hand and ensure no one else had to worry about his side.

Zhou Yangzi immediately returned to his state and fought against the two Void Refining Stage members of the Demon Race.

But the injuries on Zhou Yangzi's body were constantly increasing; perhaps only Zhou Yangzi himself knew how much longer he could hold on.

Meanwhile, Jiang Xue was much calmer at this moment.

Cang You looked at Jiang Xue, "I didn't expect you to be so calm after seeing such a scene. Why don't you defect to our Demon Race side?"

"Whatever you want, I can give you."

Jiang Xue smiled, "What do you think?"

"I actually didn't expect you to be able to find that secret technique, just to deal with Ye Lin on our side."

Cang You laughed, "That Ye Lin is a dangerous figure. If we let him continue to grow, we will have no hope on our side."

"The strength of the opponent he is facing now is on par with mine. Such strength is more than enough to deal with that Ye Lin."

"He has no more chances."

"Your Human Race is destined to be defeated this time. You likely have no more trump cards on your side, and I might as well tell you that the same goes for us."

"But even if you know, it is of no use. You can only watch the situation over there, unless, of course, you can finish me off in a short time."
