I Am Your Natural Enemy

His will, which had already been struggling for quite some time and could no longer hold on, was instantly shattered. All thoughts in his mind began to dissipate. In the blank world, only one thought remained. Like a drop of ink falling, it instantly permeated the entire blank canvas, occupying all his thoughts.

Tear his stinking mouth apart!

Big Mouth Ghost, whose hands had been clinging tightly to the earth, retracted them. His body, half buried in the ground, was also pulled out by himself. He let go of everything and stepped onto the Golden Light Avenue, willingly following it as he rushed towards Wen Yan at the other end.

Wen Yan watched with cold eyes as Big Mouth Ghost charged toward him.

Big Mouth Ghost was right; forcefully pulling him out would also tear Lu Jing’s Soul out of her body. Of course, a Soul leaving the body was indeed a serious issue, but it also depended on the situation. At this moment, Lu Jing was essentially lying on a hospital bed, surrounded by medical staff and a host of emergency equipment. Her heart had just stopped momentarily, and the reason for this stoppage had even been stated in advance. So, that wasn’t too big of a problem. The bigger issue was that forcibly pulling Big Mouth Ghost out carried a high probability of tearing Lu Jing’s Soul apart first, and that would most likely be a major problem.

Although Wen Yan was one hundred percent confident he could prevent Lu Jing from dying, it was better not to tear her Soul if possible. A Soul that couldn’t be restored was essentially no different from being dead. The only solution was to make Big Mouth Ghost come out by himself. However he got in, he had to come out on his own. That was the only way.

Wen Yan could not retreat even a single step. The slightest hesitation, and Big Mouth Ghost would become fearless.

Wen Yan chanted the Mocking Mantra, watching as the head of Lu Jing’s Soul detached from her body. A speck of golden light spilled from her Soul’s forehead, and a tiny Golden Light Avenue emerged there. Big Mouth Ghost, stepping onto the Golden Light Avenue with a ferocious expression, had given up everything just to charge out and personally tear Wen Yan’s mouth apart.

Only then did Wen Yan see the prompt.

”Treasure Stealing Ghost → Treasure Stealing Ghost (Heart’s Treasure).”

”Once a Thief of great renown, he not only stole jewels but also the hearts of young ladies from their boudoirs. After death, he became a Treasure Stealing Ghost, fond of stealing a person’s most precious possession in the dead of night. During the Hongwu era, he sought to take advantage of the chaos and go to the Imperial City to steal its treasures but was stomped on by a foot, causing him to fall into another realm. In that other realm, he found a path to advance but never had the chance to do so. There were simply no targets from whom he could steal a heart’s treasure. Until he came to the present world, where he easily found a target.”

”Once he completes a theft, he will fully transform into a Treasure Stealing Ghost capable of stealing the heart’s treasure. The most cherished treasure in each person’s heart is entirely different. That intangible, formless, unpredictable treasure, which cannot normally be taken, can be stolen by him. For example, the love a person receives from their mother.”

”Temporary Abilities:

1. Heart Fire.

2. Deduction Method.”

Wen Yan hastily equipped and tested the two Temporary Abilities.

Heart Fire: The flame from within your heart can burn any being with Spiritual Intelligence in places your physical body cannot reach.

Deduction Method: You can transform into other characters in non-corporeal realms.

Watching the approaching Treasure Stealing Ghost, Wen Yan felt a rare urge to strangle it on the spot.

Stealing the treasure of someone’s heart is even more heinous than taking a life!

As the Treasure Stealing Ghost’s figure emerged from the Golden Light Avenue, it rapidly grew larger.

THUD! Wen Yan’s hand shot out, grabbing the opponent’s neck and lifting the two-meter-tall Treasure Stealing Ghost into the air. Wen Yan’s Yang Energy, already enhanced by the Explosive Great Sun Blessing, erupted. His anger surged, and the Yang Energy throughout his body flared uncontrollably, as if a new Great Sun had been ignited in the dead of night.

Overwhelming Yang Energy radiated from Wen Yan. Tong Si, standing beside him, trembled uncontrollably. His Grim-eyes could see nothing. As far as he could see, there were only raging flames, like a furious inferno. If not for the Yang Energy Blessing from Wen Yan marking him as a friendly unit and granting him immunity to friendly fire, he would have been vaporized in that instant.

Within Yu State City, the Yang Energy spread rapidly. Someone on the other side of Yu State looked towards Southern Yuzhou. The Yang Energy there roared like a blazing fire, and the person’s expression was one of shock.

”Who in Yu State provoked the Tuoba Martial God? Are they insane?”

An overworked office drone, furiously drafting designs, felt the explosive Yang Energy spreading rapidly from several kilometers away. He let out a wail as fine hairs began to sprout on his face, revealing his true form.

”Damn it! Are there still clueless idiots in Yu State? Why would anyone provoke the Tuoba Martial God for no reason?!”

Dozens of miles away, in a Martial Arts School, sweat dripped continuously from Zhang Xuewen as he diligently practiced his boxing and persisted in his cultivation. In front of him, a square-faced, middle-aged, powerfully built man, whose face seemed composed entirely of muscle, was instructing him. Suddenly, the powerfully built man looked eastward. He took two steps, used a stool for leverage, and in two more bounds, he was on the roof. Gazing far to the east, he sensed the expanding Yang Energy. The powerfully built man was slightly surprised. After a moment of focused perception, he exclaimed in admiration, ”My word! The Tuoba Martial God’s Yang Energy... besides being so immense, it now carries a hint of furious intent. To think I can feel it from such a distance! He has progressed once again!”
