He became the True Lord of Ten Thousand Laws starting from Liaozhai.

Xu Yi condensed a gray ball of energy in his hand, which was the so-called incantation: Exorcising Evil.

He believes that the cult leader's current state is too similar to that of so-called evil spirits. If this is not evil spirit, then what is evil spirit?

"Master, it's time for me to send you on your way." Xu Yi closed his eyes, trying to say the last words the master would ever hear. After that, Xu Yi would never speak again.

"Who lives and who dies is still uncertain." The cult leader seemed to retain the last shred of sanity. His eyes were bloodshot, and strange patterns began to appear on his body, which was very eerie.

Xu Yi did not answer him. He simply drew another spell with his right hand, which was a black chain. This was the spell: Soul Snatcher.

When dealing with enemies in the Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining stages, soul magic is definitely the first choice. Cultivators at this stage have no way to strengthen their souls, or they simply cannot access similar cultivation techniques.

Judging from the cult leader's reaction just now, Xu Yi can definitely defeat him with this kind of magic.

Xu Yi activated his escape technique and quickly traversed the air. During the rapid transfer, the cult leader finally moved as well. His speed became extremely fast, so fast that he became a blur. Xu Yi was also surprised by his change. He did not expect that the cult leader's strength could become so strong after this ritual.

However, no matter how fast the sect leader is, Xu Yi can still outrun him; the Rainbow Transformation Technique is no joke.

Finally, Xu Yi teleported behind the cult leader and seized the opportunity.

The soul-snatching spell was cast into the cult leader's body. Xu Yi moved to another location, intending to pull the cult leader's soul out of his body by pulling it. However, Xu Yi overestimated the spell and underestimated the cult leader's strength.

Or rather, Xu Yi was somewhat amazed by the power the cult leader possessed after completing the ritual; his soul was extremely stable and could not be pulled out at all.

"Alright, what exactly did you sacrifice in your ritual?" Xu Yi exclaimed. He seemed to understand that it wasn't that he couldn't pull out the soul, but that the cult leader had done something extraordinary, which was why his soul-snatching spell hadn't worked.

"Hehe, all rituals require sacrifices, all power comes at a price, and my soul is the price of the ritual," the cult leader said hoarsely. His voice was already very soft. In order to defeat Xu Yi, he had sacrificed two-thirds of his soul to the prophecy stone tablet.

Yes, it's the Prophecy Stone. This is what the Prophecy Stone itself said: as long as you offer your soul, you can gain even greater power.

The cult leader did indeed do as he was told, and he did indeed gain immense power, but his soul was almost completely devoured.

Xu Yi felt a chill run down his spine. To lose his soul in order to defeat him—this was a bizarre thing, no matter how you looked at it.

"Master, do you really want to get rid of me?" Xu Yi roared. He didn't understand the Master's behavior at all.

"No, this is a life-or-death decision, you still don't understand my determination!" The cult leader felt disgusted by Xu Yi's behavior, which had already reached the point of no return.

If he hadn't used this move and had been defeated by Xu Yi, Xu Yi would never have let him go. But if he had used this move, he would have had a chance to defeat Xu Yi. How worthwhile that would be!

These were all the cult leader's own thoughts, but he no longer had the strength to say them aloud. He actually admired Xu Yi; Xu Yi did have some ideas, and he always felt very comfortable talking to him.

But he was now unable to speak. He dared not undo the ritual on himself. If he were to undo the current state now, he believed that Xu Yi would absolutely kill him without mercy.

His existence was already a threat to Xu Yi. He seemed to know Xu Yi quite well. Xu Yi's plan was definitely to extract enough information from him. As long as he was killed, he would turn around and join the Five Poisons Sect. Their corpses would be the best pledge of allegiance.

So he can't die, he dares not die, if he dies now, all of this will truly be gone forever.

Under the influence of the ritual, his body and soul became more solidified, and he was able to remain unaffected by Xu Yi's magic. This shows just how much he paid for it.

After failing to draw out his soul, Xu Yi gave up on trying again.

He used his movement technique again to change his position, and finally, he seized the opportunity once more. He discovered that the sect leader had been greatly improved in all aspects due to the influence of the ritual. This level was already close to the Foundation Establishment stage, right?

This was Xu Yi's conjecture. He had never witnessed a Foundation Establishment cultivator make a move, and subconsciously assumed that someone stronger than him might have already reached the Foundation Establishment level.

This was Xu Yi's conjecture. He had never witnessed a Foundation Establishment cultivator make a move, and subconsciously assumed that someone stronger than him might have already reached the Foundation Establishment level.

Little did he know that this was a mistake. After reaching the Five Elements Foundation Establishment stage, his strength was far more terrifying than Xu Yi had imagined.

Foundation building is difficult, extremely difficult, but the benefits gained after successfully building a foundation are extraordinary.

"You are very strong. Your current state puts pressure on me, but it's time to end all of this," Xu Yi said in a deep voice.

This was the most difficult battle he had fought since his debut. He kept his position constantly shifting throughout the entire battle, just to avoid being caught by the cult leader, whose spells were currently quite terrifying in their destructive power.

Xu Yi had no defensive skills, so he dared not take a direct hit from the sect leader's attack.

His escape technique is very fast; all he can do is constantly shift positions. However, escape techniques and movement techniques are different.

Is this what Xu Yi thinks of as the art of escape, used for faster pursuit or escape? That's the essence of escape techniques; they have no use in dealing with enemies.

If you have the chance, you must acquire a movement technique to deal with your enemies.

After thinking about this, Xu Yi began to activate his magic power to make himself faster. The Divine Illumination Cloud Technique that Xu Yi cultivated did not make his magic power more solid. Perhaps he could achieve that in the second stage of Foundation Establishment.

Xu Yi felt that the Divine Illumination Cloud Technique was not so simple. It was a technique from the Heavenly Realm. According to Zhang Qiuyu, it should be a relatively high-level technique from the Heavenly Realm. However, Xu Yi had not yet been able to see it while he was still in the Qi Refining stage.

During the Qi Refining stage, Xu Yi only felt that his cultivation was progressing faster? Perhaps that was the case, but he had been cultivating in a simulation, so he couldn't really sense what his talent was like.

It will be fine once the foundation is established.

Xu Yi finally got serious. His eyes hardened, and he condensed a ball of gray energy from his palm, throwing it towards the sect leader.

To the cult leader's horrified gaze, the gray cloud of energy struck him. There was no way to avoid it; there was no way to dodge it.
