Chapter 1354: Purple-Blue Photosynthesis

"My goodness, if it weren't for you, boss, we'd probably be in serious trouble right now. This purple light is very similar to the young woman's blue-green light; perhaps it could also alter our bloodline forms."

Xu Yang shook his head slightly. "It shouldn't be that simple. This light is likely a unique talent possessed by their kind. The aura each person emits varies in color, so their corresponding attributes and functions should also be vastly different. However, before we understand the true effect of this power, it's best not to try it rashly. After all, I'd be fine, but I'm afraid your bodies might not withstand it."

Xu Yang's words were incredibly impactful, leaving his companions speechless for a moment.

Indeed, Xu Yang possessed the physical body of the Ancestral Dragon as his armor. Even the most powerful forces from extraterrestrial life forms couldn't fundamentally harm his vitality. Xiao Hua herself was a deity-level expert who achieved her divine status in the Great World. Furthermore, with most of the Beast King's power essence now inherited within her, she should be able to resist the erosion of this special light to some extent. More importantly, this body was not Xiao Hua's original physical form to begin with, so even if her bloodline were to be corroded, it wouldn't be a major issue. However, aside from the red-robed female envoy, the other three divine beast envoys would likely not be so fortunate.

Without the protection of Xu Yang's Divine Angel domain, unimaginable changes would likely occur the moment the light swept over their bodies.

"It seems the terrifying entity living here has already detected our presence." The Azure Dragon's expression was grim; facing an expert of this caliber for the first time left him deeply unnerved. The sheer oppressive feeling from the purple light that enveloped them just moments ago made him feel immense pressure.

"It's fine. We'll deal with whatever comes our way. No matter how powerful an opponent is, they can't be invincible. If they truly were, then these people wouldn't have agreed to Yun Wangji's arrangements and would instead be struggling to survive in this small, desolate land of the Extreme North. They would have seized control of the entire Yingzhou Continent."

In truth, Xu Yang's judgment was sound. His current strength was in no way inferior to Yun Wangji's. The entire Yingzhou Continent was likely a grand creation established by Yun Wangji himself.

No matter how strong these individuals were, they could never surpass Yun Wangji, the deity of the Yingzhou Continent. Therefore, no matter how formidable the opponent seemed, in Xu Yang's eyes, it was merely a game.

"For the human race to produce someone like you, it must be fortunate for that fellow, Emperor Yunlong."

Suddenly, a somewhat aged voice reached everyone's ears. Soon, from the depths of the valley, a figure entirely enveloped in pulsating purplish-black light abruptly appeared.

The figure appeared to be wearing a special suit of armor, but Xu Yang instantly saw through to its essential life force. This being was naturally like this, a perfect fusion of energy and life, a true embodiment of such.

Its completely energy-based physical form made the creature seem quite bizarre, yet no one present dared to question its power.

"I'm curious," Xu Yang asked. "The so-called Beast Emperor clan, are they all beings like you? And which external dimensional plane do you originate from?"

Xu Yang posed this question. "Heh, in your current state, you are not qualified to question me. At the very least, you must fight me first to know my true measure. However, before we begin, I have a more important task: to awaken the memories of the girl beside you."

The being, radiating purplish-black energy, suddenly uttered these words, immediately causing the Azure Dragon and others to exchange bewildered glances. Only the Xuanwu clone remained calm, showing no excessive surprise.

The valley's master suddenly performed a highly unusual physical movement, seemingly a unique method for their kind to channel energy. Immediately after, a strange runic mark illuminated before his body. This creature was actually attempting to lock onto the red-robed female envoy's soul using a special light.

Xu Yang tried to intervene, but he quickly realized that the resonance between these two was achieved through soul communication, which his Divine Angel domain could not perfectly block. In other words, the Angelic domain could only ensure that those within it were protected from external physical forces, but Xu Yang had no way to forcibly prevent the establishment and communication of such spiritual resonance.

Furthermore, the red-robed female envoy's instincts showed no resistance to the establishment of this signal. Thus, this forced soul communication between the two was forcefully initiated amidst everyone's horror.

Crystalline blue-green patterns emanated from the red-robed female envoy's pupils, perfectly matching the color of the light she had previously emitted. In response to the other being, a black light and the red-robed female envoy's blue-green light intertwined, crisscrossing the void to reach their final focal point.

The instant this focal point formed, the red-robed female envoy seemed to receive a call to a mission. Without hesitation, she stepped on the ground and shot into the air, forcefully breaking free from the protection of Xu Yang's Angelic domain. With this action, the red-robed female envoy appeared, for now, to no longer be a member of Xu Yang's team.

She entered a state of deep spiritual slumber, hovering in the void as the purplish-black halo descended, completely immobilizing her. Throughout this entire process, the envoy showed no trace of resistance to this state; it seemed she felt a strong affinity for the summons from a being of her own kind and wished to gain some clues from this call.

"Holy crap, no way! They just tricked away a key member of our team so easily? Boss, this situation is really tricky. If those two bizarre alien life forms team up and attack you, the consequences would be unimaginable."

The White Tiger youth was the first to express worry for their boss, yet Xu Yang himself still felt no pressure whatsoever.

"Forget about those two; even the entire Beast Emperor clan combined wouldn't be enough to face me, Xu Yang. But the problem is, this girl is our teammate and companion, so I can't attack her. It seems the best way to solve this is to first conquer this presumptuous fellow. We should be able to gain some useful clues from him."

After Xu Yang finished speaking, a cold, slight curve appeared at the corner of his lips. Those familiar with him knew that when Xu Yang wore such an expression, it meant he was about to get serious. And the enemy he was now taking seriously was this alien life form enveloped in purplish-black energy before him.

"Power that lacks absolute strength has no meaning in my presence. I will prove to you with my might how utterly worthless your existence here is."

As Xu Yang finished speaking this time, nine divine sword outlines simultaneously appeared behind him. Each sword gleam condensed a unique and special aura, simultaneously locking onto the physical body of the purplish-black energy being before them. With this moment's arrival, all the sword energies began to fuse into one under a unique, structured order. This single energy entity, formed from the condensed sword qi, actually shook the stability of the void above the entire battlefield.

"Heh, you truly live up to your reputation as a self-strengthening human who can once again represent Emperor Yunlong in the conquest of the Extreme North Wasteland. That you could unleash such an astonishing display is well within my expectations."
