With Pei Yan's help, Ye Jiumu achieved a fourth-level awakening by converting his internal energy. Although he unexpectedly gained a new, extraordinary ability, this very power was exceptionally difficult to wield, requiring focus of mind, body, and spirit at a singular point to successfully unleash it.
Moments later, as Ye Jiumu stared intensely into Shitang Longsi's eyes, ready to burst, his ability finally activated.
At this moment, Shitang Longsi, who was disregarding Pei Yan's attacks and focused entirely on escaping, suddenly felt his entire body freeze. His leaping figure seemed to be slowed, as if suspended mid-air, and began descending slowly like a snail.
This abrupt standstill caught his guards and other Divine Desire People off-guard; they continued their movements, rushing past his position. When they realized something was wrong and turned back to rescue him, Pei Yan had already caught up with them.
