"Evil Soul Devouring Tower!"

As the nine-tiered bone pagoda materialized, Shui Yuanchen immediately recognized it and shouted out its legendary name.

Shui Wuya, sensing the aura of the tower, couldn't hide his surprise. His dark eyes revealed a trace of astonishment.

"Such an overwhelming aura of bloodshed—this doesn't seem like a mere incomplete Level Ten soul tool."

With this thought, Shui Wuya shifted his gaze to Shui Songshan. At that moment, Shui Songshan, kept at a distance by the Snow Emperor, was fixated on the bone pagoda, his crimson eyes filled with madness.

However, when Shui Songshan noticed Shui Wuya's icy gaze, he shuddered and quickly turned to explain.

"The Evil Soul Devouring Tower in Ye Xishui's possession must have undergone extensive refinement to forcibly elevate it to the level of a Level Ten soul tool. However, it still pales in comparison to a true soul tool of that grade!"

Listening to Shui Songshan's explanation, Shui Wuya gradually understood.

"Come forth, wraiths of the Death God Tower!"

Ye Xishui's hair whipped wildly as she pushed her soul power to its peak. The next moment, the nine-tiered bone pagoda erupted with an immense black mist, from which countless wraith-like creatures emerged.

With piercing wails and roars, they charged straight at Shui Wuyue and Shui Yuancheng.

Already in a berserk state, Shui Yuanchen unleashed his martial soul true form, transforming into a massive Bloodbath Ice Emperor. Shui Wuya, meanwhile, assumed the form of a pure Ice Phoenix.

Shui Yuancheng's ninth soul ring glowed, and with a flap of his wings, thousands of blood moons ascended. With a single thought, Shui Yuanchen directed the blood moons toward Ye Xishui.

Simultaneously, Shui Wuya unleashed his full spiritual power, forming a radiant eight-colored spiritual flower that sped toward Ye Xishui.

"Boom!"

An unparalleled explosion resounded in the sky as Shui Yuanchen's ultimate attack overwhelmed Ye Xishui's control over her Level Ten soul tool.

The spiritual flower released by Shui Wuya clashed fiercely with Ye Xishui's protective soul power.

In a matter of moments, Shui Yuanchen's overwhelming strength shattered the countless wraiths released by the Evil Soul Devouring Tower. In a flash, he appeared above Ye Xishui.

"Xishui!"

Previously severely injured, Long Xiaoyao's eyes widened in shock as he witnessed the scene unfolding in the sky. Ignoring the risk of his own demise, he shot upwards at full speed.

Just before Shui Yuanchen's attack landed, Long Xiaoyao positioned himself in front of Ye Xishui.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Another series of explosions erupted. Shui Yuanchen's attack, combined with Shui Wuya's spiritual flower, struck Long Xiaoyao again, dealing a devastating blow.

Long Xiaoyao spewed a torrent of blood and immediately lost consciousness.

At the same time, the spiritual flower conjured by Shui Wuya broke into Ye Xishui's mental realm, causing severe damage.

"Argh!"

Three seconds later, Ye Xishui coughed up a mouthful of blood, her face contorted with terror and shock.

The overwhelming power of Shui Yuanchen and Shui Wuya far exceeded her expectations. She realized that if the fight continued, her death was inevitable.

Glancing at the Evil Soul Devouring Tower still hovering in the sky, Ye Xishui's eyes showed a flicker of reluctance. However, she didn't hesitate. She seized the unconscious and heavily injured Long Xiaoyao and, using the last of her strength, fled rapidly toward the distant horizon.

Shui Wuya watched her retreat without pursuing. Fighting against an Ultimate Douluo as a Soul Saint had pushed him to his limits.

Throughout the battle, he leveraged his strong mental powers to complement Shui Yuanchen, and together they managed to defeat Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao.

Soon after, Shui Wuya extended his hand towards the sky, and the now ownerless Evil Soul Devouring Tower descended into his grasp.

Exploring it with his mental power, Shui Wuya noticed that although the tower had reached the level of a Level Ten soul tool on the surface, it lacked the core essence of a true soul tool.

Shui Wuya then turned his gaze back to Shui Songshan.

Shui Songshan, knowing his end was near, showed a calm and resolute expression. He had long accepted his fate in the Slaughter Hell, but his sole motivation for staying alive was to complete this Level Ten soul tool.

"For me to create a one-of-a-kind Level Ten soul tool in this lifetime is worth everything!"

In the next moment, Shui Songshan burst into maniacal laughter. His entire body began to glow with a blood-red light, resonating with the nine-tiered bone tower in Shui Wuya's hand.

Suddenly, the nine-tiered bone tower flew towards Shui Songshan, enveloping him in its blood-red glow. Instantly, his body disintegrated into a cloud of blood mist, beginning the final blood sacrifice. Flesh and soul rapidly merged into the nine-tiered bone tower.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the snow-white Evil Soul Devouring Tower turned crimson, emitting a thunderous roar.

"So this is the true power of a Level Ten soul tool!"

Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from the Evil Soul Devouring Tower, Shui Wuya murmured in awe.

But just then, a mysterious golden fragment in his spiritual world began to vibrate violently. The fragment shot out from his spiritual world and started to merge with the Evil Soul Devouring Tower.

In a single breath, the tower shattered into countless points of light.

"Chirp!"

A sudden phoenix cry filled the air, and a massive creature emitting an intense chill emerged from the light—a majestic ice phoenix!

Shui Wuya's eyes widened in disbelief as he gazed at the enormous creature in the sky. He couldn't comprehend why the merger of the mysterious fragment and the Evil Soul Devouring Tower resulted in an ice phoenix.

However, upon closer inspection with his spiritual power, he realized it was not a living entity but a soul tool in the form of an ice phoenix.

"Shriek!"

Another phoenix cry sounded, and the ice phoenix flew into Shui Wuya's body, settling into a dormant state.

As Shui Wuya stood puzzled, a system prompt suddenly echoed in his mind.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully upgrading the system, gaining a new system ability: the host can now traverse between the present and ten thousand years ago at will, though each traversal consumes a large amount of spiritual power.]

Time travel?!

Hearing the system's voice, Shui Wuya's initial shock turned into profound astonishment.

"Patriarch, are you alright?" Shui Yuanchen asked with concern.

"I'm fine, Uncle. Let's return to the Slaughter Hell first."

Shui Wuya was unsure why the tower transformed into an ice phoenix or why he gained the ability to travel through time.

He needed a quiet place to investigate thoroughly.
