Divine Transcendence

Chapter 113: Powerless

Ha Gong’s dim bloodshot eyes didn’t last long and quickly returned to normal. He continued to roar loudly, even more fiercely than before.

"It seems that Ha Gong hasn’t completely lost his sanity. Hearing his wife’s voice, his rationality temporarily recovers," Yuan Ming thought to himself.

Ha Gong’s sanity is still intact, so there is still a way.

Yuan Ming sat down in front of Ha Gong and pressed his head with one hand, trying to sense Ha Gong’s sea of consciousness.

Ha Gong’s sea of consciousness has been occupied by sticky bloodshot lights, causing the operation of his soul power to become extremely sluggish. On the contrary, these bloodshot lights are quite agile and have taken control of everything.

Yuan Ming is very familiar with these bloodshot lights because he has seen them in his own sea of consciousness before. They are the evil aura formed by the Death Moon method.

"So this is a situation where he is completely controlled by evil aura? It’s just as I expected," Yuan Ming thought to himself and fully activated the Beast Taming technique.

The human sea of consciousness is unique and completely different from that of fierce beasts. It is impossible to plant Beast Taming runes, so the Beast Taming technique is not a spell used to deal with humans. However, it can torment the opponent’s will.

Yuan Ming thought of using the Beast Taming technique to try to awaken Ha Gong.

A stream of black energy entered Ha Gong’s sea of consciousness, ignoring his soul and rushing towards the bloodshot lights.

These bloodshot lights have taken control of Ha Gong’s consciousness. As long as they can weaken or even expel them, Ha Gong should be able to recover.

Yuan Ming’s idea is not wrong, but the implementation is much more difficult than he expected. These bloodshot lights are more troublesome than the power of the soul. The impact of the Beast Taming technique’s black energy on them is almost ineffective.

His brows furrowed, then quickly relaxed. His five fingers slightly curved as he chanted ancient and simple incantations.

The black energy of the Beast Taming technique in Ha Gong’s sea of consciousness instantly condensed and transformed into two rotating black stones, like two black grinding discs, crushing the bloodshot lights in his sea of consciousness.

After his soul took shape, Yuan Ming became more proficient in controlling the power of his soul and his level of Beast Taming technique increased. He could now manipulate the black energy of the Beast Taming technique to change its form.

Of course, the transformation of the black energy is not done out of thin air. It involves the application of the Death Moon method.

After transforming into black grinding discs, the power of the Beast Taming technique suddenly increased, and the bloodshot lights couldn’t withstand it and began to dissipate.

"The Death Moon method is indeed powerful. With just a slight change, it can possess such abilities!" Yuan Ming nodded slightly.

Ha Gong, on the other hand, was not feeling comfortable. His face showed signs of pain as he continued to roar.

These bloodshot lights contain a lot of his soul power, and the two are inseparable. Now that they are both being crushed, it naturally causes pain.

Yuan Ming ignored it and continued to cast spells.

The bloodshot lights in Ha Gong’s sea of consciousness were gradually weakened and dissipated.

Ha Gong’s face turned pale, panting heavily, and his soul power was also greatly diminished.

However, it was all worth it. The blood color in Ha Gong’s eyes had become very dim, and he was not far from regaining his sanity.

With most of the bloodshot lights dissipated, Ha Gong’s soul appeared, entwined with a blood chain composed of runes, which seemed to be a kind of controlling secret technique used by Hu Huo.

"Is this the method Hu Huo used to control Ha Gong?" Yuan Ming’s pupils contracted as he controlled the black grinding discs to wrap around the blood chain and grind it fiercely.

Ha Gong’s body trembled violently, and blood began to flow from his seven orifices.

The blood chain was ten times stronger than the bloodshot lights, and the black grinding discs couldn’t do anything about it.

Tu Ya’s mother saw Yuan Ming suddenly sitting down and casting spells, seemingly forgetting about them. She intended to take her daughter and leave, but Yuan Ming didn’t say a word, so she didn’t dare to move.

That sitting figure seemed like a towering mountain, suppressing all her thoughts.

"Come here!" Yuan Ming’s voice suddenly came.

Tu Ya’s mother was startled, but somewhere in her heart, she felt relieved. She brought her daughter and walked over.

"Sir, what do you want us to do?" Tu Ya’s mother knelt down beside Yuan Ming and asked.

"Do you know why I have been helping you again and again?" Yuan Ming said without looking back.

"Please tell me, sir," Tu Ya’s mother had always wanted to ask about this matter and quickly spoke up.

"Your husband Ha Gong and I are old acquaintances. We were both in the Biro Cave a few months ago, where we were both Beast Taming slaves..." Yuan Ming slowly explained, briefly recounting the encounter between him and Ha Gong and the incident of Ha Gong turning into a human demon.

"Sir, are you saying that this monster is my husband?" Tu Ya’s mother looked at Ha Gong, her heart in turmoil, and asked in a trembling voice.

Tu Ya was too young to understand what Yuan Ming was saying.

"He has already transformed into a human demon and is now being controlled by someone. I am trying to restore his sanity. However, it is not easy to do so, and I need your help," Yuan Ming said.

"I will do my best, even if it costs me my life, as long as I can awaken my husband," Tu Ya’s mother wiped away her tears and said eagerly.

"Madam, don’t worry. This matter is not difficult. I am currently trying to suppress the restrictions in Ha Gong’s soul. You just need to call out to him," Yuan Ming said.

"Really?" Tu Ya’s mother’s face showed joy, and she immediately called out Ha Gong’s name, holding her daughter’s hand.

The bloodshot lights in Ha Gong’s sea of consciousness had already been crushed by Yuan Ming, and his consciousness was already restless. When he heard the calls of his wife and daughter, he quickly reacted.

His body trembled, and the bloodshot lights in his eyes quickly faded, revealing a clear light."Gina, Tu Ya, is it you... How did you end up here? Where is this?" Ha Gong looked at his wife and daughter in front of him and recognized them.

"Husband, you’ve woken up..." Tu Ya’s mother cried with tears streaming down her face.

"Dad..." Tu Ya also realized that the monster in front of her was her father. She wanted to get closer but was also a bit afraid.

"This is near the Qing Ao Mountain." Yuan Ming spoke up.

"Brother Yuan Ming! You’re here too? What’s going on?" Ha Gong, who had witnessed Yuan Ming’s transformation into a white ape, was surprised and quickly asked.

Yuan Ming briefly explained how Hu Huo turned him into a human demon and the situation of slaughtering the Miao Flower Village.

"The Blood Soul Killing! The actions of the Bi Luo Cave are so ruthless!" Ha Gong was furious.

The killing intent in his sea of consciousness surged, seemingly triggered by anger, and his eyes flickered with bloodthirst.

"The Bi Luo Cave has always been like this. Don’t get too agitated." Yuan Ming reminded him.

Ha Gong quickly calmed down upon hearing this.

"Brother Yuan Ming, thank you for helping me regain my sanity." He looked at Yuan Ming and sincerely thanked him.

"You’ve helped me many times before. I’m just returning the favor. Don’t say anything more. Now that you’ve regained your sanity, guard your soul’s original spiritual light. I’ll try to completely eliminate the killing intent in your sea of consciousness." Yuan Ming said with a hint of urgency in his tone.

Eliminating Ha Gong’s killing intent in his sea of consciousness had already taken a lot of time, and Hu Huo could appear at any moment.

Ha Gong sensed the urgency in Yuan Ming’s tone and quickly nodded, focusing on guarding his sanity.

Yuan Ming took a deep breath and continued to operate the Beast Taming Technique. The two black grinding discs continued to grind the killing intent and bloodthirst.

The remaining killing intent and bloodthirst were exceptionally tenacious. Although they were not as unshakable as the Blood Chains, the efficiency of the black grinding discs decreased significantly.

Moreover, Ha Gong’s soul was closely connected to the bloodthirst. Every time a bit of bloodthirst was dispelled, his soul’s power would be greatly damaged.

Continuing like this, when all the bloodthirst was dispelled, Ha Gong’s soul would completely collapse.

Ha Gong had not cultivated the Death Moon method and couldn’t explore the situation in his sea of consciousness, but his body’s reaction made him aware of the reality.

"The killing intent cannot be eliminated, right?" Ha Gong’s eyes gradually turned cold from the initial fervor as he slowly asked.

Tu Ya’s mother’s face turned pale upon hearing this.

Yuan Ming’s expression became heavy, and he remained silent.

At this moment, he really had no solution.

"Lord Yuan Ming, please save my husband’s life no matter what, even if it means exchanging it for my life!" Tu Ya’s mother kowtowed to Yuan Ming repeatedly.

"Please..." Tu Ya also pleaded.

Yuan Ming did not respond to the two of them and looked around.

He had just embarked on the path of cultivation and had limited knowledge and abilities. At this moment, he felt powerless despite his willingness. The only one who had the ability to save Ha Gong was that silver cat, but he didn’t know if it had followed them.

The surroundings remained as quiet as before, with only the sound of birds chirping and the wind blowing. Apart from that, there was no other movement.

Yuan Ming sighed inwardly. Even if the silver cat was nearby, it seemed unwilling to get involved in this situation.

"Life and death are fated. Don’t make things difficult for Brother Yuan Ming!" Ha Gong closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was unusually calm as he spoke to his wife and daughter in a deep voice.

Tu Ya and her mother stopped kowtowing and stood frozen in place.

"Brother Ha Gong, my strength is still insufficient. I’m afraid I won’t be able to save you today." Yuan Ming felt a tinge of guilt in his eyes.

"Brother Yuan Ming, why do you say such things? You helped me regain my sanity and bid farewell to my wife and daughter. That was already a great favor. Not to mention that you openly defied the orders of the Bi Luo Cave to save Tu Ya and the others. I am not a greedy person. How could I ask for more?" Ha Gong laughed heartily.

"Brother Ha Gong, is there any unfulfilled wish you have? As long as it’s within my power, I will definitely help you achieve it." Yuan Ming still felt uneasy and asked.

Upon hearing this, Ha Gong was about to say something when his whole body suddenly froze. His mouth remained open, and the blood chains on his soul trembled incessantly.

A layer of bloodthirst emerged in his sea of consciousness, and blood quickly spread in his eyes.

Yuan Ming’s expression changed drastically, and he quickly released two Soul Crows to investigate the surroundings. At the same time, he activated the black grinding discs again, suppressing the blood chains with all his might.

However, his soul power was being consumed rapidly, and even with his full effort in using the Beast Taming Technique, he could no longer suppress the blood chains.

"Brother Yuan... Tu Ya... Please take care of them..." Ha Gong’s eyes were already mostly blood-red, and his sanity was once again on the verge of collapse as he struggled to speak.

After saying this, he suddenly grabbed his own neck with both hands.

Crack!

His neck twisted, and the bloodthirst in his eyes completely dissipated. He lost all his strength and hung inside the wooden cage.

"Husband..." Tu Ya’s mother cried out in pain.

"Mom, what happened to Dad?" Tu Ya tried to pull Yuan Ming’s arm away with all her strength and cried out.

Yuan Ming didn’t let go and lightly tapped Tu Ya’s neck with his left hand.

Tu Ya’s body went limp, and she fainted.
