The figure that appeared before Chen Tian was an evil and enchanting one. Chen Tian spoke calmly, "It seems that little girl is Qing Ling's sister. She fell unconscious because the lingering spirit of Xiemèi was affecting her. It wasn't completely expelled back then!"
Xiemèi opened her eyes and saw Chen Tian immediately. She said with killing intent, "I will kill you."
It was because of Chen Tian that she had become like this. If she killed Chen Tian, it would be considered revenge. Chen Tian looked at Xiemèi and slowly said, "With your current state? You don't even have half of your peak strength. How can you kill me? You should just disappear obediently."
Chen Tian clapped his palms together, and a giant hand formed by multicolored light surged towards Xiemèi. Xiemèi was a combination of lingering spirits and did not possess the full power of her original body. Chen Tian's palm strike was enough to kill Xiemèi instantly.
Chen Tian was no match for Xiemèi in the past, but now, Xiemèi was merely a lingering spirit, and Chen Tian was not afraid. As the multicolored hand was about to reach Xiemèi, a strange black and red aura emanated from Xiemèi's body. Chen Tian was stunned. This aura was nothing like that of the Xie Ling clan. Xiemèi thrust out her claws and pierced through Chen Tian's multicolored palm. Chen Tian's face changed drastically. Xiemèi's strength was actually greater than his, judging by her aura.
Chen Tian did not care. Xiemèi was just a minor inconvenience that would take a little time to resolve.
Xiemèi instantly vanished and reappeared before Chen Tian. Her black and red claws lunged towards Chen Tian's face, aiming to pierce through his head. Chen Tian clenched his fists and threw them out. A loud bang echoed, and Chen Tian was forced to retreat.
Chen Tian exclaimed, "Your strength, how did it become so terrifying? And this is just a lingering spirit."
Chen Tian was very curious. A mere lingering spirit had managed to contend with seventy percent of his strength in a fistfight. Chen Tian hadn't even won; it was simply inconceivable!
Xiemèi spoke, "I have to thank you humans for your emotions. My anger and hatred towards you have transformed into power. Even as a lingering spirit now, I can contend with you. I have you to thank for this!"
Chen Tian understood when he heard Xiemèi say this. Emotions like anger and hatred had fueled Xiemèi's power.
Humans possess a multitude of emotions, both good and bad. However, when triggered, they often cause a person to unleash strength beyond their limits. But excessive anger can turn someone into a murderer, and excessive jealousy can lead to unimaginable consequences.
There are countless positive and negative emotions in humans: courage, perseverance, jealousy, hypocrisy, and so on. No one is devoid of any of them. Negative emotions often far outweigh positive ones.
Anger and hatred are negative influences. The power generated by negative influences is far greater than that of positive ones. This is also why Xiemèi's strength grew and her aura turned black and red.
Chen Tian's expression grew solemn. A terrifying aura erupted from his entire body, instantly bringing him to the same level as Xiemèi. Chen Tian and Xiemèi simultaneously took a step forward, transforming into two streaks of light.
On Chen Tian's fists, multicolored light and nine-colored dragon scales enveloped them. He swung them directly at Xiemèi. Xiemèi's claws were entwined with black and red light and aura, making her claws even sharper. Chen Tian and Xiemèi collided and both retreated three steps.
It was a draw, but Chen Tian knew he was at a disadvantage because he had retreated slightly further. Chen Tian's fists, clad in multicolored light and nine-colored dragon scales, simultaneously burst with light. He moved his fists in a Tai Chi diagram pattern. In the center of the nine-colored Tai Chi diagram were two five-colored Yin and Yang balls.
Chen Tian pulled his palms apart, and the Tai Chi diagram enlarged, filling his entire body and hands. Chen Tian pushed his palms forward, and a nine-colored light wave carrying five-colored Yin and Yang pillars shot out towards Xiemèi.
Xiemèi's body was enveloped in a black and red aura. Her claws also shrank by half, and she crossed them, forming a cross shape. A black and red claw blade wave shot out. With a boom, Chen Tian's and Xiemèi's attacks exploded. It was a draw. Chen Tian placed his left and right hands on his left and right sides respectively. Above his arms, armguards formed by multicolored and nine-colored light appeared. His armguards collided, and then his arms formed an X shape, emitting a light wave. The light wave carried five-colored light spheres within it.
Xiemèi remained unhurried. Her claws extended, then shattered, transforming into long spikes that appeared before Xiemèi. With a thought from Xiemèi, the countless claw spikes rotated and combined into a drill. The spinning drill rushed towards Chen Tian's attack.
The drill collided with the light wave, and Chen Tian's light wave was gradually crushed by the drill. Chen Tian watched as the approaching drill figure disappeared. Skill: Teleportation.
The drill hit its mark. Chen Tian appeared behind Xiemèi. A white longsword struck out from his left hand. Chen Tian would not miss any opportunity. Xiemèi's eyes narrowed, and a black and red aura formed a shield behind her. The longsword struck the shield and shattered.
Xiemèi's claws had also recovered at some unknown time. She retaliated with a sweeping attack aimed at Chen Tian's heart. Chen Tian produced two blades in his hands, crossing them. With a clang, he retreated. Chen Tian stabilized himself, having to admit that Xiemèi was even more troublesome than before, and this was still just a lingering spirit!
He couldn't believe that human emotions could make her this powerful.
"It seems I need to revise the contract terms next time!"
Chen Tian muttered inwardly. There were indeed flaws in the contract that led to this situation. He would be careful next time and ensure complete annihilation.
Xiemèi said, "Divine Master, are you still my opponent?"
Chen Tian replied, "Don't get cocky. Anger and hatred have indeed given you power, but I'm not powerless either. Human perseverance and unyielding spirit can also grant strength."
"Fight to the death, activate!"
Chen Tian's body was covered in a layer of golden armor, and his aura surged. It only increased slightly, but Xiemèi could sense Chen Tian's aura was still climbing. Thus, she struck first, attempting to interrupt his enhancement.
Such martial arts and techniques that boost combat power would be rendered useless if interrupted. Her claws were directly entwined with black and red aura, and a giant black and red claw phantom shot out towards Chen Tian. Chen Tian swung his fists, and a cyan gale tornado vortex appeared, engulfing Xiemèi's black and red phantom and then shredding it.
Wind element was Chen Tian's most powerful element because his mastery level was maxed out. Chen Tian's fists were wrapped in cyan airflow, making the void feel like a gentle breeze. Xiemèi let out a sigh of relief. Chen Tian had made his move. The cyan airflow on his fists spun violently. He slowly raised his arms, and tornado airflow continuously appeared on them. The tornadoes grew larger and larger. Chen Tian's arms transformed into tornado arms. When Chen Tian extended his arms, the tornadoes rushed towards Xiemèi, as if to destroy everything. Xiemèi felt the terror of this move and was stunned.
This move was not from the Divine Realm. It was a move composed of energy and origin. How was this possible?
Chen Tian was using a spell from the cultivation world. Spell: Tornado Devouring the Heavens!
For the Xie Ling clan, they were unaware of the cultivation world, so they wouldn't understand this move. Xiemèi could not resist it. Even if she could resist, she would be severely injured.
Two tornadoes rushed towards Xiemèi. Xiemèi naturally would not give up resisting. Her entire body was wrapped in black and red aura, and then her body transformed into a black and red sphere. The sphere charged towards Chen Tian's tornadoes.
A massive explosion sounded in the void. Chen Tian's tornadoes engulfed the black and red light sphere within them, then began to shred it. Explosions echoed, and an unwilling voice emerged from within the tornadoes: "I, I am not reconciled! I will definitely get revenge! Divine Master, I'll wait for you below, hahahaha!"
The tornadoes disappeared, and so did Xiemèi's figure. The surrounding void vanished, and Chen Tian reappeared inside a house. He looked at the little girl's face. When Chen Tian saw her features clearly, he had already confirmed that this was Qing Xin. He hadn't expected Qing Xin to be reincarnated in such a place, but it was normal. People with the same origin were rare, so why bother with their background?
Chen Tian saw that the little girl was still unconscious and began to treat her. Qing Xin's body could not withstand the influence of Xiemèi's aura and had fallen into a deep sleep. Chen Tian needed to remove the remaining aura from her body, and then she would recover after a good sleep.
At the same time, Chen Tian contacted Qing Ling and informed her of her sister's location. Qing Ling, who was at the Lin family, became happy. However, she was forced to complete the formation before she could find her sister. Thus, Qing Ling asked Chen Tian to take care of her sister.
After a period of treatment, Chen Tian exhaled a breath of turbid air and called out to the door, "Old Grandpa, you can come in now! Your granddaughter has been treated."
With a bang, the door was pushed open, and Qing Mie hurried into Chen Tian's presence. He looked at Qing Xin, her complexion much better than before, and a faint breath could be heard. He immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Thank you, thank you, Young Master! Thank you very much!"
Just as he was about to kowtow in gratitude, Chen Tian gently lifted him, and Qing Mie stood up. Qing Mie seemed to have witnessed something astonishing. My heavens! Was this still human? Were these methods the work of immortals?
Chen Tian suddenly felt something and said, "This is several million. You and your granddaughter can use this to buy a good place to live. I have matters to attend to and will be leaving for a while. I will not leave you until your granddaughter wakes up. Also, if a young woman named Qing Ling comes looking, do not stop her; she is your granddaughter's sister."
Qing Mie nodded. He didn't seem surprised that his granddaughter had a sister. Chen Tian noticed this but did not inquire further. This was Qing Xin's own matter, not Chen Tian's concern. This karma needed to be resolved by Qing Xin herself.
Chen Tian's figure directly left the house. The moment he stepped out of the door, his figure vanished. In Chen Tian's home, he appeared on the sofa and slowly closed his eyes. The Chronos Epoch chip activated, and Chen Tian entered the game world.
