Chapter 2068: Chapter 2068: Don’t Drain My Power

”Sigh.”

Sha Luodi’s once mischievous expression had vanished entirely, leaving only a heavy sigh.

”I thought being the protégé selected by that old thing, protected by such a strong figure, would make him an exceptionally distinguished heavenly talent and monster.”

”Unexpectedly, he’s just a fool.”

”Even a fool can see the evil aura emanating from the Sand Devouring Pearl, yet he blindly rushed to grab it.”

”Now, with the evil aura’s invasion and the pearl’s devourment, he’s risking his life.”

Not far away.

Xiao Yi couldn’t be bothered to listen to what the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters were saying.

He was still observing the Sand Devouring Pearl.

Although the evil power inside him was raging relentlessly, eroding his spiritual sense, mind, and devouring his vitality,

it still couldn’t do much harm to him for the time being.

He continued to sense carefully.

After a while, Xiao Yi had a certainty in his mind.

What’s eroding his spiritual sense, mind, and vitality is undoubtedly the power of this Sand Devouring Pearl.

It was clear that two significant life-force auras could be sensed within the pearl.

These two auras were exactly the same as those of the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters not far away.

That is to say, the Sand Devouring Pearl was absorbing the life-force of the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters.

In the air, an indistinct force was connecting to the aura of the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters.

Xiao Yi pondered and sensed the terrifying aura in his body besides the evil aura.

That terrifying aura had now gradually become a shackle, beginning to bind his spiritual sense.

Meanwhile, he also sensed the Sand Devouring Pearl emitting another indistinct force connecting to his spiritual sense.

”I see.” Xiao Yi’s mind was suddenly clear.

The terrifying aura must be the connection point by which the Sand Devouring Pearl exerts its power on external objects.

This terrifying aura came from the Sand Devouring Pearl.

This aura first sealed the enemy’s spiritual sense, leaving them defenseless.

Afterward, that indistinct force would begin to connect, absorbing the martial artist’s life-force and Cultivation Power.

At this moment, the martial artist’s spiritual sense was already bound, leaving no room for counteraction.

No wonder despair was written all over the faces of the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters.

At the same time, at the other end of the Sand Devouring Pearl, there was also an indistinct force, but that force was connecting to the mysterious young man in the distance.

The aura of the young man not only was not weakening, but becoming even more turbulent and shocking.

Xiao Yi squinted his eyes.

Clearly, the Cultivation Power of the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters was being absorbed by the Sand Devouring Pearl and then controlled by that young man to become his own Cultivation Power.

This Sand Devouring Pearl could not only seal one’s spiritual sense and imprison others’ Cultivation Power but also allow the absorbed power to be utilized by the controller.

This effect was what made it truly terrifying.

In the distance.

That mysterious young man, after initially saying, ”seeking death,” had not spoken another word, but sat cross-legged high in the sky.

The young man obviously had immense confidence, as he had not spared a single glance at Xiao Yi since his hand touched the Sand Devouring Pearl.

At this moment, a violent aura erupted from the young man.

Clearly, the young man’s Cultivation had broken through under the influence of the Cultivation Power absorbed from the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters through the Sand Devouring Pearl.

Not far away, the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters’ hearts suddenly sank.

Their auras were weakening continuously, with life-force dissipating as well.

”Ha ha ha ha.” The young man sensed his Cultivation, then laughed wildly.

That wildness was a manifestation of unrestrained delight.

And such delight came from the satisfaction of breaking through the bottleneck of martial cultivation.

”I, finally broke through.” The young man laughed heartily.

His handsome face was full of pride and satisfaction.

”Congratulations, Young Master.” Beside him, all the elders congratulated in unison.

The young man nodded with satisfaction, ”Today, not only have I broken through, but I also received a great gift.”

”My father arranged for this strategy for thirty-three thousand years.”

The young man’s gaze suddenly turned cold, ignoring Xiao Yi, and fixed on the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters.

”You, Heavenly Sand Two Monsters, fought against the Ancient Sand Snake Clan in this Heavenly Sand Secret Realm for this Sand Devouring Pearl over tens of thousands of years.”

”Little did you know, my father already found the Sand Devouring Pearl a hundred years earlier and has been arranging for it, infusing it with evil power for years.”

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters’ faces turned extremely ugly, ”The Sand Devouring Pearl, hidden deep within eighty million miles of desert, with the Sand Snake Clan obstructing, was nearly impossible to find.”

”The Evil Lord, being able to find it silently, beyond our detection, truly has excellent methods.”

The Heavenly Sand Two Monsters’ tone was icily cold.

”Humph.” The young man snorted coldly, ”This Sand Devouring Pearl has been covered by the Evil Power infused by my father for many years and is now at the disposal of my Evil Lord Mansion.”

”The Ancient Sand Snake Clan has also been subdued by my father.”

”I have come this time, opening the fissure in the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm, just to receive this grand gift.”

Indeed, the spatial rift in the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm was a product of human force.

The young man’s eyes suddenly turned cold, ”The Sand Snake Emperor and ten Sand Snake Kings are now all my pets.”

”You two have no chance anymore.”

”Naturally, you two will become my slaves as well.”

”I do not have much patience, so I’ll ask you one last time.”

”Submit, or... face annihilation.”

The young man had issued his final ultimatum, with murder already evident in his eyes.

The bodies of the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters were trembling unconsciously, out of extreme rage.

Sha Luodi, once more, glanced furiously at Xiao Yi not far away.

”That fool, once thought we could let him seek reinforcements, now it’s all over.”

Yes, seeking reinforcements.

They, the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters, had no relationship with Xiao Yi.

Given their nature, they wouldn’t have even given Xiao Yi a hint earlier.

The reason they gave a warning was to plan for Xiao Yi to fetch reinforcements.

And by reinforcements, naturally, they meant the strong ones from the Eight Palaces.

They had no relationship with the Eight Palaces either.

But the Evil Lord Mansion, the Evil Cultivators, were the only forces openly hunted by the Eight Palaces, whom they deeply despised.

So, should the powerful ones from the Eight Palaces arrive, they would deal with the Evil Cultivators.

Of course, in reality, the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters pinned their highest hopes on the terrifying martial artists who previously saved Xiao Yi.

Any one of those martial artists could easily defeat both of them.

Any one of those martial artists could easily resolve today’s crisis.

Yet, currently, Xiao Yi had also touched the Sand Devouring Pearl.

The last hope of the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters was lost, leaving despair, naturally, Sha Luodi still cast an angry glance at Xiao Yi.

Sha Tongtian coldly stared at the young man, ”Do you want us to submit? Just because of you, a mere brat?”

”Without the Sand Devouring Pearl, what are you?”

”At worst, we, the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters, will fight you to the death.”

”Fight to the death?” An elder beside the young man sneered, ”You, Heavenly Sand Two Monsters, are known for your volatile temper, but now it seems you lack even self-awareness.”

The young man shook his head, ”Enough, if you won’t submit, then die.”

”And you?” The young man finally turned his attention to Xiao Yi.

On his handsome and sinister face, there was a condescending, beneficence-bestowing look.

”I can see you have quite some strength, but most importantly, you are young.”

”I can offer you a chance.”

The young man’s tone carried a sense of generosity, and a tinge of... charity.

In the high sky, the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters stood against the Sand Snake Clan and the faction of the young man.

Xiao Yi, touching the Sand Devouring Pearl, finally decided to give up further observation.

Observing his hand, sensing the continuous depletion of his Cultivation Power, Xiao Yi shook his head.

”My Poison Power wasn’t easy to cultivate, best not to drain mine.” Xiao Yi looked at the Sand Devouring Pearl, letting out a cold smile.

”Since it’s you who brought me to reveal myself, then drain yours.” Xiao Yi cursed to himself angrily, focusing on the Ice Phoenix Sword within him.
