Chapter 425: Four Blazing Suns, No Way to Turn the Tide
"How is it? Little Lychee, do you like my grand torture?"
Ye Lin's smile grew increasingly kind as he held two metal skewers and walked toward Wu Shangleng.
Wu Shangleng's gaze grew increasingly terrified; just hearing about this so-called erhu playing made him feel as if his skull were about to explode. Even though he hadn't been tortured yet, he already felt a phantom pain!
"Don't come over here!"
Wu Shangleng was scared out of his wits and collapsed to the ground. He had thought he was perverse and insane enough.
But now he realized that compared to Ye Lin, he was as pure as a saint.
Wu Shangleng grabbed his blade and slashed desperately at the undead creatures.
Escape!
He had to escape immediately, flee this place, as far away as possible!
At the mere thought of the torture Ye Lin described, he felt he was going insane.
But once enveloped by the Undead Return Realm, there was no way out unless one killed Ye Lin or crushed his head.
Everything Wu Shangleng did was nothing more than a death struggle.
Because he was so terrified that he exposed his back, Ye Lin effortlessly struck him with a World-Extinguishing Wild Thunder, leaving him severely wounded.
"Forbidden Spell? One Qi Transforms into Three Purities!"
Ye Lin split off two clones and dragged Tsukuba Ryo and Shimoi Naoharu over as well.
All three were in a state of severe injury and had no ability to resist Ye Lin.
Ye Lin condensed four more iron skewers, then his two clones each grabbed one, took hold of Tsukuba Ryo and Wu Shangleng, and began playing the erhu.
Tsukuba Ryo had been in a coma, but the moment Ye Lin's clone began playing the erhu, he woke up!
Tsukuba Ryo's eyes widened, the whites filled with bloodshot veins, and his entire face twisted directly, looking extremely ghastly!
"Ah!!!"
Tsukuba Ryo let out a scream that didn't sound human and immediately began to struggle desperately.
Seeing this, Ye Lin used an Ice-type Forbidden Spell to seal his limbs, making him unable to move.
"Kill me! I beg you, kill me!"
Tsukuba Ryo slammed his head against the ground, wanting to end his own life.
Ye Lin was startled and hurriedly cut off a large piece of his own flesh, placing it under Tsukuba Ryo's head to prevent him from killing himself by impact.
"Buddy, as long as you're alive, there is hope. Don't seek death easily; you must be strong!"
Tsukuba Ryo opened his mouth wide, snot and tears streaming down; he was in so much pain he no longer had the strength to make a sound.
Seeing Tsukuba Ryo's miserable state, Wu Shangleng wanted to commit suicide on the spot, but Ye Lin had long since guarded against him, pinning him down firmly before performing the full set of limb-freezing.
"Why do you all keep wanting to seek death! That's not right! Come, let me play an erhu tune for you~"
Seeing the smile on Ye Lin's face, Wu Shangleng felt as if he were looking at a demon. He shook his head desperately to beg for mercy, but Ye Lin ignored him and started playing!
Wu Shangleng's body went rigid instantly; that terrifying, excruciating pain was completely beyond the limits of human endurance.
Shimoi Naoharu's face had turned deathly pale, devoid of any color.
Seeing Ye Lin's gaze fall upon her, Shimoi Naoharu shivered instantly, forcing a fawning smile onto her face.
"I... I don't have any lychees, but I can do anything for you, anything at all! Please, spare me!"
Ye Lin dotingly rubbed Shimoi Naoharu's head.
"Silly girl, what are you saying? You can play the erhu even without lychees!"
Shimoi Naoharu's expression changed wildly!
Ye Lin began to play "Moon Reflected on the Erquan Spring," then grabbed the three of them and elegantly played the erhu.
The twisted, hideous, and distorted faces of Tsukuba Ryo and the others echoed the sorrowful tune.
Just as Ye Lin was immersed in playing the erhu, the Undead Return Realm was suddenly shattered.
Four extremely powerful auras descended, instantly leaving Ye Lin unable to catch his breath.
Taku, Keisuke, Aine Shin, and Granny Kamiyama—four Blazing Sun realm experts of the Sang Kingdom—each guarded a direction, cutting off all of Ye Lin's escape routes.
Their terrifying auras intertwined, forming a horrific pressure sufficient to make the heavens and earth change color.
At the same time, a three-legged, two-eared bronze cauldron hung high above Ye Lin's head, firmly suppressing him.
The surrounding space-time was locked at this moment; even Space-type Forbidden Spells could not be used.
Ye Lin only felt as if a great mountain were pressing down on his body; even lifting a hand had become extremely difficult.
That terrifying pressure was even forcing him to kneel to the ground.
The remaining Bright Moon and Star realm experts of the Sang Kingdom also appeared, eyeing Ye Lin like tigers, their eyes filled with cold murderous intent.
This was clearly a dead end!
A dead end specifically designed for Ye Lin, one with no chance of survival!
Even though Ye Lin was an 85th-level Forbidden Spellcaster wielding the Origin Ancient Artifact, the Eternal Balance, there was absolutely no possibility of escaping from here.
"The Origin Ancient Artifact is now ours, the Great Sang Empire's!"
A flash of excitement crossed Granny Kamiyama's eyes. She hadn't expected things to go so smoothly; the people of Great Xia were truly stupid enough.
Now that the situation was settled, even if Ye Lin had heaven-reaching abilities, it was absolutely impossible for him to escape under the suppression of the Bronze Dragon Vein Cauldron.
One must know that the Bronze Dragon Vein Cauldron was being fueled by four Blazing Sun realm experts, twenty Bright Moon realm experts, and over a hundred Star realm experts.
Even if the Demon Emperor came, he could be suppressed just the same!
Tsukuba Ryo and the others had long since breathed their last from Ye Lin's erhu playing, but at this moment, no one paid any attention to whether the three of them were dead or alive.
"Ye Lin, you have no wings to fly now. If you are willing to obediently hand over the Origin Ancient Artifact and swear allegiance to our Great Sang Empire, we can wipe the slate clean of past grievances!"
Granny Kamiyama stared fixedly at Ye Lin; an 85th-level Forbidden Spellcaster, even without the Eternal Balance, was still very valuable.
"Old hag, go to hell!"
Ye Lin directly transformed into a locksmith.
Granny Kamiyama's expression gradually turned cold.
"Since that is the case, do it. Proceed according to the original plan! I want to see how long his immortal body can hold out!"
As soon as Granny Kamiyama finished speaking, the people of the Sang Kingdom began to act.
They began to take turns, continuously launching killing blows at Ye Lin!
At this moment, Ye Lin was suppressed by the Bronze Dragon Vein Cauldron and had no power to fight back, only able to be unilaterally slaughtered.
He died dozens of times almost every second; those Sang Kingdom people were more ruthless than the last.
If this continued, even with the Eternal Balance, being ground to death was only a matter of time, as the Eternal Balance would overload if forced to revive continuously.
However, facing the current situation, Ye Lin had no other choice but to passively use the immortal body of the Eternal Balance to preserve himself.
Just as Ye Lin was being suppressed and slaughtered in Dongjing City, five hundred kilometers away, another Ye Lin carrying a dark golden banner appeared above a Sang Kingdom city.
Ye Lin's gaze swept over this bustling, noisy city, the smile at the corner of his mouth incomparably brilliant.
The population here was in the hundreds of thousands, making it the largest city in the Sang Kingdom besides Dongjing City.
"You want to kill me, right? All your three-realm experts have gone to surround me, and they aren't here, right? Watch how I kill them all!"
