Chapter 736: Surviving

"Young Master Shen, are you unhappy? Smile!"

She carefully draped a garment over Shen Yu, looking just like a gentle and virtuous wife, while Gu Yutong herself was dressed in a wedding gown.

The two of them performed the wedding ceremony right there in the middle of the wilderness, and throughout the entire process, Shen Yu was completely bewildered.

He had thought the other party would be impatient to devour him, and he had already prepared himself, just waiting for the moment she made her move to suddenly strike back at her.

Yet this tension lasted the entire morning; who could have guessed she would actually play a game of marriage with him?

You say you want to kill, so just kill—why all these elaborate steps? Are these old fogies so good at playing games these days?

Or is it that these days, even when ruining someone, one must have a sense of ritual?

During this time, he held back several times when he wanted to strike.

It wasn't yet the moment when the other party was at her most relaxed; either don't strike, or if you do, it must be a fatal blow.

Once all the procedures were finished and everything had concluded, the other party walked up in a leisurely manner.

She took off the red wedding gown on the outside and placed her hands on his face.

Her jade-like hands glided across his face, and at the same time, a kind of indescribable emotion seemed to appear in her eyes.

At this moment, Shen Yu had an illusion that the person standing before him was not that old monster, but the Gu Yutong he knew.

The next moment, her clothes were half-undone, and her beauty was suddenly revealed. For a moment, it made Shen Yu's already calm heart almost lose control; it was just too damn torturous.

Don't you know how hard it is to be a gentleman who can hold himself back?

The sky was the bed, the earth was the quilt; a talented man and a beautiful woman could be called a perfect match.

However, at this moment, both the man and the woman had their own thoughts; the woman was restless, unable to resist wanting to strike, and the man was no different.

Kill these old monsters, and then you'll have everything.

She lightly licked her lips, and between those bright red lips, there seemed to be infinite temptation.

Soon, Gu Yutong slowly moved closer, the distance between the two grew smaller and smaller, and their lips touched.

But just at this moment, a fierce look flashed in Gu Yutong's eyes, directly suppressing all the previous emotions. All the tenderness and love seemed to vanish completely.

The infinite power within Shen Yu's body was fully stirred up, as if it were about to surge toward the other party in an endless stream.

At this moment, he also knew the time had come.

Having stirred up his power and absorbed his fortune, the other party must be at her most triumphant and weakest in terms of defense.

All her focus was on how to absorb his power.

It was precisely at this moment that Shen Yu secretly took out the Soul Falling Bead and the Soul Reflection Mirror, and he activated them together, mixing his Mental Power with the power of Dong Yu.

The next moment, Gu Yutong suddenly felt her head shake, and for an instant, she felt a sense of distraction.

At this moment, she was greatly alarmed in her heart, feeling that something was wrong, but unfortunately, it was already too late.

The next moment, it was as if an unnamed flame was burning in the depths of her soul, wanting to burn her to ashes.

"Crack!"

A sound like something shattering rang out, and cracks appeared in the space before them, rapidly expanding.

Beside Shen Yu, Gu Yutong, whose face had been full of excitement, now turned deathly pale; she was being enveloped by endless spatial ripples, as if she were enduring infinite beatings.

"Pfft!" She spat out large mouthfuls of blood; she wanted to struggle to escape, but found she could not escape at all.

In just a single moment, not only was her body damaged, but even her soul had received a heavy blow that was difficult to mend.

No, more accurately, the other party was targeting her soul, constantly tearing at her Mental Power. In just a moment, more than half of her soul power had been consumed.

What a method, what a scheme!

"Soul Reflection Mirror!" Holding a bronze mirror, its light shone brightly, enveloping the other party; the mirror could clearly reflect the situation deep within Gu Yutong's soul.

This was something he had obtained from signing in recently; it could reflect the depths of a person's soul, and when used with the Soul Falling Bead, it could burn the soul.

Its terrifying aspect lay in its ability to quietly burn away a person's soul and consciousness, leaving only a mindless shell, with no injuries visible on the surface.

Under the illumination of the Soul Reflection Mirror, it could be clearly seen that the vast majority of the Mental Power within her body was of one kind.

Only at the very edge was there a tiny, nearly dissipated piece of spirit; that must have been Gu Yutong's original consciousness.

She wanted to counterattack, but was terrified to discover that the person attacking her was far too strong, leaving her no chance to struggle at all.

Isn't this a young man? How could he have such terrifying martial power?

"Mu Yan? No, you are not Mu Yan!"

When she saw clearly who was before her, Gu Yutong was shocked; this was a figure standing at the peak, an old schemer who had played the Heavenly Pride of many eras for a fool.

In terms of being ruthless, he might not be the most vicious, but the key was that this person seemed like a lunatic; one moment he felt he should uphold justice, the next he felt he should fall into darkness.

In short, if he was in a good mood, he would find a reason to kill whoever he wanted, and there were few who could beat him.

In this Great Contention Era, this person was one of the few candidates truly capable of transcending; for so many years, how many people had tried to kill him only to return empty-handed? How did this young man manage it?

No, to have so many methods at his disposal, is he really just a young man?

"The eyes are hollow and devoid of consciousness; is this a Puppet?"

She shouted in surprise, looking at Shen Yu with disbelief.

"What a method, to actually be able to turn him into a Puppet; how did you do it?"

At this moment, a feeling of extreme regret had already arisen in the bottom of her heart; if she had known earlier that the other party had such methods, she would never have provoked him!

It was as if a cooked duck had been placed before her, just waiting for her to chew it up and swallow it.

But when she actually went to eat it, she found it wasn't a plate of meat at all, but a copper pea—a copper pea that could shatter one's teeth.

"That's about enough!" Looking at the girl still struggling in the void, Shen Yu smiled slightly; it was time to close the net.

"What's about enough?"

The moment Shen Yu spoke, her expression changed abruptly; although she didn't know why Shen Yu said that, she understood that he definitely wasn't just shouting nonsense.

But before she could find a way to protect herself, a sun seemed to rise in her mind, a sun radiating scorching light and heat.

The moment this great sun appeared, her Spiritual Sea rapidly withered and evaporated, and the soul power accumulated over countless years completely collapsed and dissipated.

That was an unrivaled power, a power she could not resist no matter what.

"What exactly is this?"

"It is the Great Sun Power!" Shaking his head, Shen Yu held up the mirror in his hand and said indifferently, "And it is the Great Sun Power enhanced many times over."

"The greatest function of the Soul Reflection Mirror in my hand is not to reflect the soul, but to send external power into the soul and detonate it from within."

"It is a pity that you had no defenses from the very beginning, otherwise it would have been truly difficult to handle!"

"Good, good!" Enduring that extreme feeling of pain, the opponent looked at him with appreciation instead.

"So you were making me lower my guard from the very beginning; what a terrifying little brat. No wonder my reincarnation took a liking to you; you are worthy of it."

"Do you know, I also do not want to kill; if possible, I would rather live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, free and unfettered."

"But this is the Great Contention Era; if you do not contend, everyone will die, and that is far more tragic than you imagine!"

"I hope you can survive, hahaha, can you survive!"
