Shui Wuya furrowed his brow, feeling a bit perplexed by the elder's report.
"Tang Ya wants to revive the Tang Sect. Why would she come to me?"
"Is she that confident I'll help her?"
The elder hesitated for a moment before cautiously replying, "Clan Leader, based on my speculation, Tang Ya might be planning to seduce you in hopes of securing your assistance."
"What?"
Shui Wuya was momentarily stunned before a hint of confusion appeared on his face.
"Seduce me?"
He chuckled self-deprecatingly. "Do I look like someone easily swayed by women?"
"Not at all!" the elder responded immediately.
Shui Wuya waved his hand dismissively and sighed.
"Tell her that relying on my strength to revive the Tang Sect is impossible. She should give up on that idea. If she truly wants to restore the Tang Sect, she'll have to rely on her own efforts."
After pondering for a moment, Shui Wuya gave further instructions. "Invite Elder Yuanchen to come."
A short while later, Shui Yuanchen arrived. His steps were as light as the wind yet dignified and composed, each movement embodying the laws of nature, exuding a unique and mysterious aura.
Seeing his increasingly extraordinary demeanor, Shui Wuya felt deeply gratified.
Shui Yuanchen respectfully greeted him and asked, "Clan Leader, what do you need from me?"
Since the clan leader had broken through to level 96, his strength was undoubtedly the greatest. Shui Yuanchen knew he was no longer a match for him. The former young clan leader no longer needed his protection, which filled Shui Yuanchen with comfort.
Of course, this was also because his divine realm was currently empty, unable to fully utilize his divine power. If he were to continue developing his divine abilities, his strength would surely increase significantly.
Shui Wuya smiled faintly and said, "I've arranged a new position for you: the Hall Master of the Holy Spirit Cult."
Shui Yuanchen's eyebrows raised in surprise. "I'm to be the Hall Master? Will the cult leader Zhongli agree to that?"
Shui Wuya responded calmly, "Does he dare refuse? I've already spoken to him. Go ahead and assume your new role. Once you're there, observe carefully. If any of those in the Holy Spirit Cult refuse to obey or remain stubborn, send them back to prison."
Shui Yuanchen nodded in understanding, then respectfully took his leave to carry out his new duties.
After Shui Yuanchen quietly exited the hall, a hint of boredom appeared on Shui Wuya's face.
Since his return, he'd been busy with no time to rest. Now, he felt it was time to relax a bit.
He made his way to Soul Spirit Mountain, where the tranquil environment brought a sense of inner peace.
A sudden moment of enlightenment washed over him.
Shui Wuya sat on Soul Spirit Mountain, surrounded by a serene and harmonious atmosphere.
He closed his eyes and began to regulate his breathing, allowing his body and mind to relax and find peace.
As his powerful soul force circulated, his spirit souls gradually appeared around him, each radiating its own unique aura and strength.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King stood towering like a massive mountain, emanating a deep-sea presence.
The Evil-Eyed Tyrant exuded a fierce killing intent and dark power, as if it could pierce through anything.
The Dream Ice Silkworm, slender and cold, emitted a chilling aura, embodying the power of endless frost.
The Octagon, a sacred and mysterious creature, gave off an elusive aura.
Finally, Di Tian emerged from Shui Wuya's body.
Upon seeing Di Tian, Bi Ji and the other fierce beasts showed concern, eagerly asking how he had been during this time.
Di Tian nodded slightly, indicating that he was fine and that nothing was amiss. However, when his gaze shifted to Shui Wuya, his eyes were filled with complex emotions.
When he first transformed into a spirit soul and entered Shui Wuya's body, he was startled by the other spirit souls residing within. He never expected that the Clan Leader of the Shui family would harbor so many profound and mysterious spirit souls, especially the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King! Once the ruler of the deep seas, it had suddenly vanished without a trace ten thousand years ago. Who would have thought that it had now become a part of Shui Wuya, dwelling within him?
"Could it be that the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was captured by the Shui family all those years ago?"
Di Tian shuddered at the thought. He had heard rumors that there was an even more powerful force behind the Ice God. Now, it seemed those rumors might be true. The Shui family's heritage was far more formidable than he had ever imagined.
While Shui Wuya was relaxing, his mind was also deeply focused on comprehending the eighth technique of the Ice God's secret arts—Opening the Heavens. The mystery of this technique lay in its ability to allow the user to create a space within their own body.
"Spatial power... But how does this relate to the Ice God's legacy?" Shui Wuya was puzzled, unable to see the connection between this technique and the Ice God's secrets. Nevertheless, he devoted himself entirely to his cultivation.
As he practiced, mysterious ripples emanated from the space around Shui Wuya, spreading outward like invisible waves and enveloping the entire Soul Spirit Mountain.
"What is this aura!?"
The surrounding spirit souls were utterly shocked. They could clearly feel that the space was imbued with a powerful force, one capable of shaking the heavens and earth. It seemed to originate from some distant time and place, unfathomable and overwhelmingly strong.
Within this mysterious space, Shui Wuya appeared to be undergoing a perilous trial. His figure seemed small, as if being swallowed by an abyss of endless darkness. The spirit souls, though stunned, also felt a growing unease. They knew that the challenge Shui Wuya was facing was not one that could be easily overcome.
The spatial power within Di Tian resonated strongly with the spatial fluctuations around Shui Wuya, as if triggered by them.
"This is bad!"
Di Tian's heart sank as he realized the danger of the situation. If this power was not brought under control, Shui Wuyai might be destroyed by the force of space itself. If Shui Wuya were to perish, Di Tian, as his spirit soul, would also face annihilation!
Without hesitation, Di Tian sprang into action. His soul power surged like a mighty river, gathering into a formidable force that pressed against the spatial power. However, the moment he intervened, the spatial fluctuations grew even more intense, raging like an enraged beast.
His efforts were in vain, and instead, the situation worsened.
"How is this possible!?" Di Tian's expression darkened as anxiety gripped him.
"The master is in danger!" The other spirit souls around them were equally alarmed, their faces filled with worry.
Di Tian urgently called out, "Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, why haven't you acted yet?"
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, hearing this, showed a trace of helplessness in its eyes. Shaking its head, it replied gravely, "I can't. I have no understanding of spatial power. If I forcefully intervene, it will only endanger the master further!"
Although it was a formidable 99-level soul beast with immense power, it had not mastered spatial power, leaving it helpless in the current situation.
"We can't let this continue. I'll go get help!" The Ice Emperor, sensing the urgency, prepared to fly out and seek assistance.
"Let me handle this!"
Just as the situation reached a critical point, the Evil Emperor's giant eye suddenly emitted a dazzling light. The light carried a mysterious power, permeating the entire space. This power was like a soft yet resilient rope, gently binding the turbulent space and gradually calming the chaotic fluctuations.
