"Roar…"
A Tai kicked Chu Tian hard in the back.
His eyes were bloodshot, as if he had lost consciousness.
All he knew was that the person he was about to attack had been saved.
This fellow's muscles bulged instantly, and his eyes turned red.
With that, he stepped on Chu Tian's back and exerted force, trying to stomp Chu Tian down.
At that moment, everyone froze.
They knew too well how terrifying A Tai's strength was when he entered this state.
Within the clan, no one could withstand A Tai's attack head-on when he was in a rage.
In their eyes, Chu Tian, the trial participant from Blue Star, had not shown much throughout their journey. Moreover, his aura was weak to the point of being pitiful, making it impossible to discern his strength.
Everyone had begun to underestimate Chu Tian by this point.
Even the young girl Hai Yue, disguised as a boy, had started to disregard Chu Tian.
However, they did not know that it was precisely this man whom they had belittled who had just saved them.
"Help quickly!"
Hai Yue was the first to react.
The others also snapped back to reality at that moment.
However, under their worried gazes, Chu Tian's body actually straightened.
The A Li who had been lying on the ground was also held in his arms.
A Tai, on the other hand, was pushed back by him…
Staggering back three steps.
"Catch!"
Chu Tian ignored A Tai, turned, and shouted at Hai Yue.
He then casually tossed A Li, whom he was holding, over.
As Chu Tian turned, he charged towards A Tai.
"Go easy on him!"
Hai Yue caught A Li, her eyes flickering, and she returned to the side of the others.
She transmitted her voice into Chu Tian's ear with her pleasant female voice.
"A Tai seems to be in trouble!"
Even A Biao, the one with well-developed limbs, could see that.
Chu Tian's strength and physical toughness were far superior to A Tai's in his enraged state.
"You're still worried about him? If it weren't for Chu Tian, A Li would already be dead. Besides, he won't break out of his enraged state unless he's beaten into submission!"
Bu Shi Yi said calmly.
"Yes, it seems no one among us can return the enraged A Tai to his original state, right?"
Jin Ling, who had always considered herself powerful, felt a lingering fear.
However, she was not afraid of A Tai in his enraged state.
She followed a path of lightness and agility.
Even if A Tai entered his enraged form, he couldn't catch her; he could only become her target practice.
However, in situations where lives were at stake, she was helpless.
Therefore, she couldn't find a way to awaken A Tai without harming him.
"Everyone, stay alert!"
Hai Yue, who had been healing A Li, slowly withdrew the light from her hands.
"What's wrong?" Jin Ling asked.
She could see that Hai Yue's expression was grim, and she was looking around vigilantly.
"A Li… was attacked by divine soul power!
The opponent is extremely powerful, and I cannot treat this kind of injury!" Hai Yue stood up.
"What?"
"Impossible, right?"
"A Li has the most powerful divine soul among our generation. She is expected to inherit the position of the old priest!"
Hu Biao, Bu Shi Yi, and Jin Ling were all shocked.
Hai Yue nodded affirmatively in response.
This immediately terrified the three of them.
They immediately assumed defensive stances.
The four of them were almost back-to-back.
They surrounded A Li in the middle.
"Speaking of which, why did A Li want to kill us? Even if she's good friends with Zu Tian, she wouldn't go so far as to kill us!"
A Biao asked.
"Are you stupid? You know what A Li is like. She just likes to play! And she saved us!
If she wanted to kill us, she wouldn't have trapped us in a swamp-like illusion, keeping us in place.
Instead, she would have made us continue forward, with all of us unknowingly jumping into an abyss!"
Jin Ling explained from the side.
"Is that so?" A Biao asked blankly.
Boom…
Although they had talked so much,
not much time had actually passed.
As A Biao was still questioning,
Chu Tian and A Tai finally collided.
A muffled, sky-shattering roar drew everyone's attention.
A Tai was like a furious giant ape.
He leaped up and lunged at Chu Tian.
Meanwhile, Chu Tian had his feet planted on the ground.
He was like a giant bear.
He swung his fists, directly smashing towards A Tai's chest, which was completely unguarded and wide open.
In A Tai's enraged state, his mind seemed not to be working well.
His arms were aimed at Chu Tian's shoulders.
Therefore, his chest defense was completely exposed.
His movements were as if he wanted to grab Chu Tian and tear him apart.
"A Tai is going to be crippled!"
Bu Shi Yi shook his head. Firstly, A Tai's strength and physical toughness seemed no match for Chu Tian's.
Furthermore, with his lack of sense, now.
Originally, his enraged state relied on strength and defense.
Now, encountering someone stronger than him in a sober state.
It was predictable that A Tai would be in trouble.
This muffled sound was the sound of Chu Tian's fists landing directly on A Tai's chest.
A Tai was already airborne.
He immediately flew backward, while Chu Tian bent his legs.
He soared into the air, chasing the flying A Tai, and instantly appeared above him.
With a whip kick, he connected with A Tai's abdomen.
Boom…
Another muffled sound, and A Tai's body crashed to the ground.
Grass and trees scattered from the impact.
Chu Tian, using the momentum from the whip kick, turned in mid-air.
With his knee pointing down, he slammed heavily into A Tai's chest.
A Tai, who was about to struggle up, was suddenly hit by Chu Tian, making it impossible for him to breathe.
And the following action.
It made everyone's jaws drop.
Slap, slap, slap…
Initially, everyone thought Chu Tian would knock A Tai unconscious.
But they did not expect to hear loud slapping sounds.
Chu Tian's palms, like large fans, moved from side to side.
A Tai, lying on the ground,
was being slapped repeatedly by Chu Tian.
"I'll let you step on me…"
"I'll let you be so fierce…"
"You goddamn wake up for me…"
This was Chu Tian's habit.
As he delivered slaps, he didn't stop talking.
With each slap, he found a reason.
A Tai, in his enraged state, possessed immense strength.
Every time he tried to struggle up.
He would be slapped by Chu Tian, his aura completely extinguished.
The two of them seemed to be locked in a contest.
A Tai would gather his strength to struggle.
Chu Tian would slap him, deflating his power.
In the blink of an eye, Chu Tian had lost count of how many times he had struck.
He just felt that this time, it was incredibly satisfying to fight.
In the past, when he hit people.
He had to moderate his force.
Fearing that he might turn their heads into a pulpy watermelon.
Facing A Tai, there was no need for such consideration.
Finally.
A Tai's bloodshot eyes.
Gradually regained clarity.
Finally, his eyes went blank, and he lay still.
Chu Tianze was still enjoying himself.
He hadn't noticed A Tai's state.
"Stop hitting, stop hitting…"
In the end, it was A Biao who rushed over.
He grabbed Chu Tian, and Chu Tian suddenly felt someone pulling him.
He turned his head abruptly.
"Uh…"
At that moment, A Biao felt as if he were being stared at by a beast.
Even the thick-skinned he felt a chill rise from his tailbone to the top of his head.
He shivered, immediately let go of Chu Tian's hand, and took a step back.
He had come over, seen A Tai's sorry state, and then seen Chu Tian's eyes, and he was truly scared.
However, Chu Tian also instantly returned to his previous state.
He slowly stood up, moved away from A Tai's body,
patted the stunned A Biao, walked past him, and headed towards Hai Yue and the others.
"Let me!"
Chu Tian walked to A Li's side, who was still frowning, trembling, and sweating profusely.
"You? Do you know her condition?"
Hai Yue looked up, her brows furrowed as she looked at Chu Tian.
Chu Tian could fight well and could directly confront the enraged A Tai.
But that didn't mean he could heal A Li.
Hai Yue was a pharmacist in the clan, and A Li's situation was too special. It was estimated that only her father could help.
Injuries to the divine soul were not something that could be resolved with ordinary healing.
"Her divine soul is severely wounded. If it weren't for her mind being in a panic when I attacked and the environment being broken first, I saw that abyss. She… would already be dead!"
Chu Tian said calmly, pointing to his own forehead.
A milky white vortex appeared, and a wisp of divine soul power materialized in the eyes of the onlookers.
It slowly floated towards A Li's forehead.
"Am I blind? That's soul power?"
Jin Ling, who was usually very composed, grabbed Hai Yue's hand and asked excitedly.
"A Soul Master… to actually be a Soul Master… a Soul Master whose soul power is even more condensed than the old priest's! No wonder… we could emerge from the environment created by A Li using the natural formation. It was him…"
Bu Shi Yi murmured as he looked at Chu Tian.
However, his eyes flickered, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
Chu Tian controlled his divine soul power and slowly injected it into A Li's mind.
Earlier, at the moment the environment was broken, Chu Tian had seen their location.
He had already determined that if A Li wanted to kill them, she only needed to change the environment and lure them forward.
However, she had used a swamp to keep them in place.
Moreover, at that moment, Chu Tian had seen A Li's face, with a smug expression like a child who had stolen candy.
At the same time, he felt no killing intent from her; it was completely as if she were playing a prank on them.
Therefore, Chu Tian had held back his strength, but he still injured her.
When Chu Tian probed her mind, he realized he had underestimated the damage he had inflicted on her.
The divine platform within her mind actually had countless cracks.
A large amount of divine soul power was uncontrollably surging out from them.
Chu Tian considered his options.
The only remaining method was.
To take over her divine platform and then repair it as if it were his own.
Of course, with A Li's current divine soul power alone, she couldn't repair the current injuries.
Only by Chu Tian injecting a large amount of divine soul power could it be possible.
Thinking this, Chu Tian's consciousness surged towards A Li's divine platform.
Under normal circumstances, to enter someone else's divine platform.
It was only possible with the other person's consent.
Otherwise, no matter how powerful your divine soul power was.
Breaking through their divine platform would only result in one outcome.
That was for the other person's head to explode into a pulpy watermelon.
This was also why, every time Chu Tian used the soul-searching technique from his divine soul secret arts.
The other party would either go mad or become an idiot.
However, A Li's divine platform was different now. Her divine platform was covered in scars and countless cracks.
These cracks perfectly allowed Chu Tian's consciousness to drill into them.
As expected.
Although her divine soul power was leaking out wildly, it couldn't stop him at all.
With a flash of his spiritual sense, he entered her divine platform through one of the cracks.
As soon as he entered, he saw a tiny figure.
With a face full of panic, trying to gather her soul power,
but utterly helpless.
Chu Tian's appearance.
The tiny figure immediately turned its gaze towards him.
That was A Li's spiritual consciousness.
Entering someone else's divine platform was a very dangerous act.
This was someone else's domain.
Chu Tian had arrived here, and A Li had discovered him immediately.
"It's you, I recognize your aura. You're the one who injured me like this, I'll fight you to the death!"
A Li's tiny body lunged directly at Chu Tian.
Chu Tian merely dodged slightly.
He avoided her attack.
"Do you want to live or die?"
After dodging, Chu Tian uttered this sentence.
A Li's spiritual consciousness was already dim.
However, she still glared at Chu Tian with hatred.
"I'm already like this, can I still live? You won't have it easy either. You dare to enter my divine platform, watch me self-destruct my divine platform and destroy this wisp of your spiritual consciousness!"
This little girl had gone mad.
The body of this wisp of spiritual consciousness began to inflate.
"Damn it, she's a feisty one?"
Chu Tian thought this in his heart.
However, he said aloud.
"It was just a misunderstanding. If you hadn't attacked us with illusions, why would I have attacked you? I'm Hai Yue's friend. If you want to live, I'll save you. If you want to die, even if you self-destruct your divine platform, you won't be able to harm me!"
Chu Tian spoke very quickly.
He was afraid that if he spoke too slowly, this feisty girl would really self-destruct her divine platform.
However, the last sentence he uttered.
Was spoken with trepidation.
Because he didn't know if her self-destruction would harm him!
But at this moment, he couldn't back down.
"You're Hai Yue's friend? I saw you before, but where did you come from?"
As expected.
With this sentence, the light on her body slowly retracted.
"This is not the time for nonsense. I need to temporarily control your divine platform, otherwise, I can't save you.
Now you need to open your mind and not have any distracting thoughts. Can you do that?"
Chu Tian stared at her after saying this.
Because his request was extremely excessive.
For her to open her mind and let him control her divine platform.
It was equivalent to being possessed by him.
If he harbored malicious intent.
He could easily erase a wisp of her spiritual consciousness.
"Okay!"
However, this little pepper in front of him.
Agreed without any hesitation.
Then, her spiritual consciousness slowly dissipated.
Chu Tian knew that she had withdrawn from her divine platform.
He no longer hesitated. His body outside, divine soul surged wildly.
It poured into A Li's forehead.
And his spiritual consciousness within her divine platform quickly gained control of her divine platform.
The divine soul power pouring in from the outside.
Instantly, through the cracks of her divine platform, it formed a backflow force.
Suppressing the easily scattered divine souls, drawing them back into the divine platform.
Most of it was Chu Tian's divine soul power.
Buzz…
At this moment, Chu Tian silently recited.
"Divine Soul Secret Art…"
Centered around his spiritual consciousness.
A strong light erupted.
Countless divine soul powers formed a barrier.
Like glue.
Bonding the cracks.
The constantly cracking fissures were delayed at this moment.
However, this was also Chu Tian's first time using this secret art to repair a divine platform.
He had also underestimated the extent of her divine platform's damage.
He had injected divine soul power.
And it was not enough.
Chu Tian's mind moved.
This was even 1/10th of his divine soul power that he had poured in.
But things had come to this point, he could only grit his teeth and persevere.
He mobilized his divine soul power again, pouring it in wildly.
This time, the divine soul power formed a light film on the outer side of A Li's divine platform.
