Shocking! The female protagonist unlocked her powers by killing people!

Chapter 241 Not Completely Out of Control

Bai Qingjue continued, "Don't let his youth fool you, he's lived for a very long time."

Ling Yi wasn't interested in that and asked, "He has half divine blood, what's the other half?"

"Human race." At this point, Bai Qingjue seemed to have thought of something, and her expression turned rather unpleasant.

Seeing his reaction, Ling Yi didn't ask any more questions and continued to look at the Tian family head.

When the head of the Tian family made his move, the shadow was burned away. Seeing this, the people on the first floor stopped vying to go to the front and instead invited the head of the Tian family to go first.

The head of the Tian family ignored everyone and led his men forward.

Approaching the long staircase, the elder stepped onto it first. With each step, the scenery changed, and countless shadows attacked. The elder was startled and quickly withdrew his foot. The shadows that had reached him suddenly disappeared.

The elder turned around: "Patriarch..."

As the Tian family head stepped onto the stairs, the scenery changed, and the shadows attacked again. Seeing the approaching shadows, the Tian family head did not retreat. With a wave of his hand, golden and red flames flew out, instantly burning the oncoming shadows to ashes.

After dealing with the shadows on the first level, the Tian family head continued upwards. There were no shadows on the next two levels, but when he reached the third level, the scenery changed again, and the shadows reappeared.

Those shadows were still dealt with by the Tian family head in one move. However, after dealing with them this time, the Tian family head did not rush forward. Instead, he turned around and looked at everyone: "Three steps, one transformation."

Upon hearing the phrase "three steps, one change," everyone's expression changed. This staircase seemed to have no end in sight; with three steps, one change, how many shadow monsters could there be?

They couldn't do anything to that shadow. They couldn't rely on the Tian family head to solve everything, but the Tian family head didn't owe them anything.

Even if the Tian family head were willing, could he withstand so many steps and so many attacks?

While everyone remained silent, Ling Yi looked at Ji Changrong and Lin Chengtian and said, "You two go with them."

Upon hearing this, Bai Qingjue's eyes flashed: "And what about you?"

"I'll go up first." Ling Yi looked at Ji Changrong: "Ji Yanzhi, Ye Qingshuang, and Bai Jiu are all up there. I can save them if I go up. Keep an eye on Lin Chengtian."

"Why?" Bai Qingjue didn't want to agree: "Why don't I go, and you keep an eye on Lin Chengtian yourself?"

"Are you sure?" Ling Yi looked at the person in front of him. "Can you really hold on with only your current strength?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Qingjue's gaze towards Ling Yi deepened considerably: "What do you mean by that?"

"The literal meaning." Ling Yi smiled slightly: "You wouldn't want him to know."

Bai Qingjue's eyes flickered slightly: "How did you know?"

Ling Yi smiled and said, "It's too obvious, I can tell."

Bai Qingjue said no more, and after a while she spoke: "Those shadows are special. They don't actively affect people, but their power can. You lost control in the palace square. Are you sure you can do this?"

Ling Yi: "It wasn't completely out of control."

Upon hearing this, Bai Qingjue knew that Ling Yi had no choice but to go, so she said no more: "Then you go, I will keep an eye on Lin Chengtian."

The reason Bai Qingjue didn't want to agree at first was because he had seen Lin Chengtian lose control and Ling Yi lose control when dealing with Ji Yanzhi. No matter which of the two of them lost control, it would be troublesome.

But Ling Yi insisted on going, so he had no choice but to agree.

After the three of them discussed it, Ling Yi walked out of the crowd and went up the stairs.

The others who were still discussing stopped and looked at Ling Yi.

As Ling Yi passed by the head of the Tian family, he heard a sentence: "I'm surprised it's you outside."

Hearing this, Ling Yi stopped and turned her head to look at him: "What's so surprising about that?"

The head of the Tian family looked at Ling Yi, his words full of profound meaning: "After all, his cultivation level seems to be higher than yours."

“Sometimes cultivation level doesn’t represent everything, just like now…” Ling Yi finished speaking and continued walking up the stairs.

As Ling Yi stepped onto the stairs above the head of the Tian family, the scene before him changed, and he saw countless shadows.

Upon seeing Ling Yi, the shadows attacked him one after another. Ling Yi raised his hand, and a barrier was erected, blocking the shadows' attacks.

Entering this space, unseen by outsiders, Ling Yi stood behind the barrier and took out the mask he had seen in the first realm.

Looking at the mask in his hand, Ling Yi, after transforming his hand, ruthlessly plunged it into his own heart. After withdrawing his fingers, he smeared all the blood on the mask.

The blood was absorbed by the mask as soon as it was applied. After absorbing the heart's blood, the mask vibrated in Ling Yi's hand, as if it had come to life.

"Quiet down." Ling Yi said, then put on her mask.

Wearing the mask, Ling Yi felt a powerful force, as if she had become the same person she was at the first level of cultivation.

The mask works well, but... time is limited.

Ling Yi removed the barrier and charged directly into the group of shadows.

Ling Yi's goal was to go up to the third floor, not to kill these shadows. So after tearing a path through the shadows, he passed directly through them and out of the black wall.

After emerging from the platform, there were new steps. Ling Yi didn't linger at all; with a single step, he entered a new level, appearing and disappearing repeatedly...

In the blink of an eye, Ling Yi disappeared from everyone's sight!

The crowd stared in disbelief at the scene, some even rubbing their eyes: "She just got past that?"

"Didn't she just enter the Land of Change? How come she came out so soon after going in?"

"Does her coming out mean those shadows are gone and we can leave now?"

Upon hearing this, some people couldn't wait to go up. As a result, they stepped into the Land of Change after passing the Tian family head. Because their cultivation level was not as high as that of the Tian family elders, and because they thought that Ling Yi had dealt with all the shadows, they did not prepare to retreat. Once they entered, they were immediately trapped. To get out, they either had to kill the shadows or, like Ling Yi, tear open a passage surrounded by shadows and go through the passage.

Whether it's the former or the latter, it's beyond the limits for the person going in. He can temporarily withstand the shadow's attack, but he can't tear open a gap. If no one comes in to help him before his strength is exhausted, he will be killed by the shadow.

The head of the Tian family stepped forward and entered the layer of change. With a wave of his hand, flames flew out and burned all the shadows.

Upon seeing this, the trapped person looked at the head of the Tian family and said gratefully, "Thank you for your help, head of the Tian family."

The head of the Tian family ignored him and continued walking forward.

Seeing this, the others quickly followed. Having learned from the previous example, no one dared to step forward rashly this time.

"Your sister is truly remarkable." Bai Qingjue led Lin Chengtian behind her, saying as they walked, "She actually managed to pass right through."

Lin Chengtian didn't say anything. He thought this was good. It was over, and he didn't have to bother dealing with those shadows. He could also distance himself from the others and go up to the third floor to seize the golden pearl.

...

Ling Yi swiftly traversed those changing landscapes, unleashing the mask's power to its fullest extent. Only when the mask's power ceased to function did Ling Yi stop.
