The two exchanged a glance, and Xiao Yefeng saw a lot in Liu Yiyi's eyes. However, at that moment, he glanced at the time and said, "Get ready! I will use the Sword Mirror Bell Needle to extract all the Evil Qi from your body. After that, I will change your fate instantly. As long as you don’t move around, I can guarantee your safety. But if you do move, it could cause me greater harm, so please don’t make things difficult!"
Xiao Yefeng's words were resolute, bordering on harsh and somewhat hurtful. Yet, upon hearing this, Liu Yiyi nodded. She had just been thinking that if Xiao Yefeng was forced into this, she would leave. If she left the formation's eye, the attempt to change her fate would fail outright, and Xiao Yefeng wouldn't have to take any risks. However, with Xiao Yefeng saying this, Liu Yiyi could only nod in agreement.
The Bagua Mirror was flung out by Xiao Yefeng and suspended in mid-air under the influence of spiritual energy. At that moment, for some reason, despite the dark clouds overhead, a beam of moonlight pierced through and shone upon the Bagua Mirror. The moon represented yin, which was cold; thus, the moonlight reflected off the Bagua Mirror and formed a thin layer of frost on its surface. Yet Liu Yiyi, sitting at the Absolute Yang Formation Eye, felt no chill; instead, warm energy continuously flowed from the circles drawn by Xiao Yefeng around her.
The warm sensation made Liu Yiyi, who was accustomed to coldness, feel extremely comfortable—almost drowsy. Meanwhile, Xiao Yefeng felt a bit disheartened as all the coldness from the moonlight returned to him at the formation's eye of absolute yin. This was the principle behind the Necromancer Feng Shui Master's fate-changing formation: guided by the Four Spirits to differentiate all yin and yang energies.
The person accepting the fate change had to be a Yin Body sitting at the Absolute Yang Formation Eye to expel their yin energy using transformed yang energy. At that moment, Xiao Yefeng flicked out six silver needles of various colors—the Seven Star Needles—and shouted loudly, "Don't be afraid!"
Liu Yiyi's trust in Xiao Yefeng was something he might not have even noticed. The six silver needles were inserted into her palms and soles as well as her front and back hearts. The Pivot Pin with a silver bell attached was inserted at the Baihui Acupoint on her head—these were all crucial points that needed protection. However, Xiao Yefeng realized that telling her not to be afraid was pointless because Liu Yiyi showed no signs of resistance.
The Seven Silver Needles were positioned in her palms and soles as well as her front and back hearts; these six needles would serve as bridges to trigger the Evil Qi while the Baihui Acupoint would be the core of changing her fate. At this point, half of the formation for changing fate had been completed; however, whether the Purple Gold Bell and Soul Severing Sword would work was still uncertain for Xiao Yefeng. Nevertheless, he couldn't find any better alternatives.
He thought to himself: Yiyi, I'm starting now! He then drew out the Purple Gold Bell and infused it with Carefree Righteousness. Instantly, the Purple Gold Bell shimmered with waves of golden-purple light that resonated through the surrounding formation symbols. In an instant, all one hundred and eight talismans in the outer circle fluttered up and ignited simultaneously. These one hundred and eight golden talismans began to spin in mid-air before ultimately transforming into four fiery red lines.
At that moment, something changed in the dark clouds above; although there were still fierce winds and rain, faint rumbles of thunder began to emerge from within them. This situation was familiar to Xiao Yefeng—it was Punishment Power. Just like when Jin Ling had encountered it before, Punishment Power sensed someone going against its will. Although spiritual energy had nearly dissipated completely, it still sought to prevent such challenges.
On another front, Liu Yiyi finally sensed something amiss when faint rumbling thunder echoed from above; she felt her internal Evil Qi stirring restlessly as if called forth by something wanting to break free. However, she couldn't find an outlet just yet but felt increasingly uncomfortable because what had once been a warm sensation had turned slightly hot—her internal yin energy seemed to be clashing with it.
After several probing clashes, Liu Yiyi felt nauseous from the backlash but managed to suppress it entirely; after all, she possessed strength at the Pseudo-Spirit Late Stage.
What Liu Yiyi didn't realize was that it was actually Xiao Yefeng who bore immense pressure at that moment. An invisible reprimand had already struck him once but was forcefully expelled by his Spirit power. The surrounding formation endured this strike from Symbol Fire with a slight dimming before quickly recovering—this was why those at True Spirit Late Stage often did not take reprimands seriously.
The Purple Gold Bell withstood the first wave of pressure, but the Fate Alteration Array was nearing its end. The most crucial step now depended on Xiao Yefeng and the Soul Severing Sword. Gently stroking the Wooden Sword Body of the Soul Severing Sword, Xiao Yefeng thought to himself, "Brother, it's all up to you this time!"
With a kick of his toes against the sword sheath, the Soul Severing Sword instantly flew out into the air. The Golden Cyan spiritual energy grasped the sword hilt like a giant hand, pointing forward as a Psychic Blade shot out directly into the Thundercloud above. The Punishment Power had never been treated with such disdain; it immediately unleashed a Condemnation Arc that struck the Soul-Severing Black Sword. The wooden sword body effectively conducted electricity, transmitting the Punishment Power into the Purple Gold Bell. After a wild tremor, one hundred and eight Symbol Fires erupted in a burst of flames.
After the brilliance faded, the Condemnation Arc vanished, while Xiao Yefeng gritted his teeth at the eye of the disaster array. Although the Condemnation Arc had struck the Soul-Severing Black Sword and transferred its power to the Purple Gold Bell, ultimately, he was still the one bearing the brunt of it. Despite being weakened several times, it still made every muscle in Xiao Yefeng's body tremble. At that moment, he placed one palm on the Barrier Formation beneath him, and thirty-six Vermilion Talismans rose like they were charging up. After receiving the Punishment Power, all thirty-six Yellow Talismans were funneled into six Silver Needles.
At this time, Liu Yiyi felt a tingling sensation in her palms and soles, as well as in her heart. Then she sensed that these six areas had opened like six great doors, allowing her internal Evil Qi to flow out like six great rivers. In just a second, twenty years' worth of Evil Qi accumulated within Liu Yiyi vanished completely, and she felt as if she had transformed entirely.
However, Liu Yiyi was unaware that this was precisely when Xiao Yefeng faced a critical moment. The six torrents of Evil Qi that surged out from her body quickly realized they had been deceived. Evil Qi was a type of Qi from the earth and should belong to the lunar Yin Qi. Thus, the Bagua Mirror reflected moonlight and condensed frost like a bright moon. Since Evil Qi was a product of lunar Yin, their relationship resembled that of mother and child; when a mother calls for her child, how could the child not respond?
Just moments ago, Xiao Yefeng had utilized Punishment Power three times to weaken it before injecting it into both the Seven Star Needle and Bagua Mirror. This created an illusion for Evil Qi, making it think that the other end of the Seven Star Needle belonged to lunar Yin. Consequently, Evil Qi bizarrely exited Liu Yiyi's body but quickly realized it had been tricked. However, as it attempted to return to Liu Yiyi's body, it was blocked by the Barrier Formation.
At this moment, Evil Qi leaped up and transformed into a man-eating tiger. It pounced fiercely at the Barrier Formation with a loud crash; after a final tremor, it remained standing firm in place. Xiao Yefeng seized this opportunity to suppress Evil Qi with his advantage in terrain. However, at that moment, a second wave of Punishment Power arrived. With wolves in front and tigers behind him, Xiao Yefeng summoned back both Bagua Mirror and Soul-Severing Black Sword; there was no need to draw upon moonlight or invoke punishment anymore.
Yet at this moment, Zitong—always one for mischief—had burrowed into the Black Gold Spirit Banner and was trapped within Xiao Yefeng's Tricolor Jade Ring. It would be no joke; even if Yin Si's Judge were present in such a scenario, they would be scratching their heads. A mere half-step Demon General like Zitong should refrain from causing trouble here; however, Xiao Yefeng was unaware that Zitong stood within the Soul Banner watching him from afar.
"Alright! This is now the most critical moment! Yiyi, you must not leave your position in the array; I am about to make my move!" Xiao Yefeng declared as he held Bagua Mirror in his left hand and brandished his sword with his right.
"Brother Xiao! Be careful!" Liu Yiyi exclaimed as she watched him and assessed their situation.
Facing down punishment and swirling Evil Qi at this moment, Xiao Yefeng gripped his sword hilt tightly with his right hand while channeling spiritual energy into Bagua Mirror. He swung Bagua Mirror and proclaimed: "The world is chaotic and tumultuous; atop this hundred-foot platform unfolds history anew. Tonight I hold you beneath falling stars; I will reverse fate and set destiny right!"
The Bagua Mirror spun upward with intersecting lines covering all of the sky above them. The Punishment Power landed on these lines and transformed into a pure white chess piece. As it passed through Yin-Yang Eye's continuous transformation, it ultimately became hundreds of rays of light shooting toward the surrounding Symbol Fire. The Symbol Fire flickered briefly before dimming by three parts; however, at that moment, punishment began to gradually fade away because just moments ago Xiao Yefeng had used Seven Star Needle to seal all five hearts of Liu Yiyi. Even if Evil Qi broke through Barrier Formation's protection now, it could not re-enter Liu Yiyi's body again.
At this moment, in a certain sense, Liu Yiyi had already escaped the countdown of her four-month lifespan, as there was no longer any presence of Evil Qi within her body. However, Liu Yiyi's crisis was far from over, for the Evil Qi continued to counterattack relentlessly. Xiao Yefeng had managed to suppress the surging sensation of blood gushing from his mouth for the third time, but he could not afford to stop. The punishment was not yet concluded; he was preparing to unleash his strength for a third strike. This also provided Xiao Yefeng with a brief opportunity to deal with the fierce tiger that had transformed from the Evil Qi.
With a call of the Purple Gold Bell, a clear ringing sound instantly dispelled part of the malevolent energy's assault. At that moment, Xiao Yefeng pointed his Soul-Severing Black Sword and declared, "Dry Mountain Left Turn Kan Soul!"
The sword tip struck the air, causing a pitch-black chess piece to fall from the sky. As the piece descended, it shattered the White Piece formed by the punishment, and an overwhelming pressure was entirely confined above the Evil Qi. The icy aura infused into the fierce tiger allowed one of its claws to tear through the confinement, aiming directly at the Barrier Formation that protected Liu Yiyi. At this juncture, Xiao Yefeng could not obstruct it either. He and the Evil Qi were engaged in a chess-like battle, advancing and retreating according to the rules!
