Chapter 489: I Am the Catastrophe of the Alien Race!

"Heh, fine then!"

"With the power of the Canglan Realm, it is fundamentally impossible to resist the Alien Race. One day, this world will be completely devoured by them, just like the catastrophe a million years ago. Everything now is merely buying a little more time to linger on!"

"You killed me, but in the future, won't you still have to be buried with me!"

Knowing that Li Xuanfeng would never let him go, Ye Lingtian sneered, wanting to find some psychological comfort in his final moments.

"If the Alien Race truly had that capability, why have they not succeeded after a million years?"

Li Xuanfeng looked at him indifferently, his Soul Power completely enveloping Ye Lingtian.

"Young man, you fundamentally do not understand the terror of the Alien Race!"

"Being devoured by the Alien Race is the inescapable fate of the Canglan Realm!"

Ye Lingtian scoffed.

"The Alien Race perishing at my hands is also an inescapable fate for them!"

Li Xuanfeng said confidently.

"Hahaha, the ignorant are fearless!"

"I admit your talent is not bad, but even if you become a Supreme Expert of the Canglan Realm in the future, so what? You would merely be one more person guarding the Boundary Pass; you could never change the outcome!"

Ye Lingtian mocked.

Right now, he seemed not at all like a living being of the Canglan Realm, but rather completely stood on the side of the Alien Race, feeling happy for their future devouring of the Canglan Realm.

"Is that so?"

"I have cultivated for less than ten years, yet I can slay you. Since ancient times, no one has been able to achieve a Saint crossing a Realm to defeat a Saint King, yet I alone can do it!"

"I can also achieve the Realm that no one has been able to Breakthrough for a million years. I was born to eradicate the Alien Race!"

"To the Canglan Realm, the Alien Race is a catastrophe. To the Alien Race, I am their catastrophe!"

Li Xuanfeng's Divine Sense voice resonated directly inside Ye Lingtian's remnant Soul.

Ye Lingtian wanted to say some harsh words before death to seek psychological comfort and also wanted to disgust Li Xuanfeng, but given Li Xuanfeng's character, he would definitely refuse to grant his wish.

"Cultivated for less than ten years?!"

Ye Lingtian's remnant Soul trembled violently.

It must be said that Li Xuanfeng's exaggerated combat power, coupled with these confident words, truly gave Ye Lingtian the feeling that Li Xuanfeng was "born to face the catastrophe."

In the history of cultivation, there indeed exist those born to face the catastrophe.

Whenever a world faces a life-and-death catastrophe, the unseen will of Heaven will give birth to an extremely terrifying Genius.

This Genius is not only stunningly talented and peerless, but also possesses terrifying Luck. No matter what hardships or obstacles they encounter, they can safely pass through them and eventually grow into an invincible existence in the universe!

Legend has it that a million years ago, when this world encountered a catastrophe, a Prodigy born to face the catastrophe appeared.

That Prodigy was also the last Great Emperor!

It was precisely the appearance of that Great Emperor that prevented the world from being completely devoured by the Alien Race.

Although Ye Lingtian was very unwilling, he highly recognized Li Xuanfeng's statement. After all, using the term "person born to face the catastrophe" to explain Li Xuanfeng's unreasonable talent and combat power made it easier to accept.

Seeing that Ye Lingtian no longer had his previous schadenfreude and smugness, Li Xuanfeng decided to add fuel to the fire.

His Divine Sense voice transmitted directly into Ye Lingtian's remnant Soul: "Moreover, since I can strip away the Nightmare Force from your Soul, do you think I have no way to completely remove them all?"

Just as the Divine Sense voice finished, Ye Lingtian's remnant Soul began to churn violently.

Excitement, shock, surprise, pleading—in an instant, various emotions flickered within the eyes of the remnant Soul.

Even for a Supreme Expert, it is very difficult to strip away Nightmare Force that has eroded into the depths of the Soul.

Powerful strength is not synonymous with omnipotence.

Wanting to remove Nightmare Force that has eroded too deeply into the Soul cannot be achieved simply by overwhelming strength. For a Supreme Expert, erasing Nightmare Force is easy, but the cost is that the Soul would also be erased along with it.

Only Li Xuanfeng, whose combat power is Heaven-Defying and whose methods are very strange, could strip the Nightmare Force from Ye Lingtian's remnant Soul without causing him any harm!

Although only a trace was stripped away, if Li Xuanfeng were willing, he might truly be able to completely clear the Nightmare Force!

If possible, Ye Lingtian certainly did not want the Nightmare Force to completely devour and replace his Soul; he did not want to become a Puppet of the Alien Race.

Previously, he had sensed that he was being eroded and infected by the Nightmare Force, but by the time he could sense it, it often meant it was beyond cure. Therefore, Ye Lingtian told no one and never exposed it, knowing that once exposed, he would likely be targeted by Supreme Experts.

This time being discovered by Li Xuanfeng was completely an accident; he had not expected a Saint to be powerful to such a degree.

In fact, even if Li Xuanfeng did not kill him today, if the Supreme Experts learned that his Soul had been invaded by Nightmare Force, they would certainly not spare him. Out of respect for his past resistance against the Alien Race, they might give him a decent end, or perhaps send him to the Void Battlefield to use his final remaining energy, but Ye Lingtian did not want to die.

If the Nightmare Force could be completely cleared, then none of that would be an issue.

Chaos Power is supreme; it is the beginning of everything and the end of everything. It has an overwhelming advantage over any power, so it is not hard to understand that it could separate the Nightmare Force.

Supreme Experts who obtained Chaos Power might not be able to use it well or bring out its various mysteries, but Li Xuanfeng's Chaos Power was cultivated by himself. His level of mastery must have reached the most proficient and exquisite level, so stripping away the Nightmare Force bit by bit without harming the Soul must certainly not be difficult!

He should have thought of that earlier!

"I have no intention of helping you!"

However, Li Xuanfeng gave him hope, only to plunge him into despair.

"Go to sleep!"

Notes like a great bell reverberated through Ye Lingtian's remnant Soul.

Shock, excitement, surprise, pleading—all emotions vanished from his face as an irresistible sleepiness washed over him.

"Damn it, you won't save me, and you still want to search my Soul?"

Ye Lingtian was filled with hatred and wanted to curse Li Xuanfeng, but the next moment he knew nothing more.

A moment in reality, a millennium in the dream.

Ye Lingtian's remnant Soul experienced a long time in the Great Dream, inadvertently dreaming of many secrets deep within his memories—some his own, and some that did not belong to him, scenes he had never experienced…

The "Great Dream Art" is not only a Secret Art for cultivating the Soul, but also a Soul Secret Technique for dealing with enemies.

Although Ye Lingtian only had a remnant Soul left, he was a Saint King after all; trying to forcibly search his Soul would certainly not be as easy as searching Ye Hanyou's.

However, using the "Great Dream Art" as an aid would allow for a better Soul search. Ye Lingtian had been eroded too deeply by the Nightmare Force; perhaps he had already obtained some memories regarding the Alien Race, and Li Xuanfeng wanted to obtain some intelligence from them.

Making Ye Lingtian speak on his own would certainly not work; the Nightmare Force would invisibly influence him to prevent him from speaking, so using the "Great Dream Art" to search his Soul was the best method.

The scenes in Ye Lingtian's dream transformed into various images, flashing rapidly across Li Xuanfeng's Sea of Consciousness.

Among them were many of Ye Lingtian's own secrets, as well as a portion of disjointed, eerie scenes that did not belong to him!

These scenes came from the Nightmare Force!

Li Xuanfeng mainly watched the scenes coming from the Nightmare Force, wanting to obtain some useful intelligence from them.

"Nightmare Force, Nightmare Heavenly God!"

"This power is truly incredibly strange; to realize Nightmare entanglement at the speed of thought across an endless distance?"

Looking at the images one by one, Li Xuanfeng muttered to himself in his heart.

Ye Lingtian's remnant Soul also rapidly dissipated during this process, until finally, it turned into nothingness along with the Nightmare Force.
