I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch

But unfortunately,

Xia Feng won't give this guy, who has long deeply resented him, the slightest chance to survive. He accelerated the erosion of the Evil Fog, and by the fifteenth second, successfully lowered his sanity below 30.

Luckily, Jin Shiyin had exhausted his spiritual power, and his soul had no ability to resist. Otherwise, it would have been somewhat difficult to lower the opponent's sanity so quickly.

Under the twisted soul's gaze full of hate and unwilling fear, Xia Feng smiled faintly: "Sending you off."

"No—"

"Boom!!" The soul exploded into ashes and was completely annihilated.

Unlike Yophiel.

The reason Xia Feng was willing to spare Yophiel's life and imprison this birdman's Residual Soul in the Spirit Life Ring was that the birdman possessed the 'Shared Destiny Curse.' Killing the birdman would mean his own death too.

But he had no such concerns when killing Jin Shiyin.

The moment he captured Jin Shiyin's soul, Xia Feng saw the status of his Relic Transformation Spiritual Artifact and the Seat Mark, without the buff of the Shared Destiny Curse.

No need to worry about the risk of mutual destruction.

Can only say, Jin Shiyin's luck was not as good as the birdman's.

Despite having so many item cards, if just one had the Shared Destiny Curse, he could have survived today.

Unfortunately, luck was not on his side.

The instant Jin Shiyin was killed, a message appeared simultaneously in the hearts of everyone in Nine Domains and One Realm.

[Currently in the fourth phase of collecting Ember Stones, triggering the first kill mechanism — a super Airdrop Treasure Box has randomly descended!]

[Currently in the fourth phase of collecting Ember Stones, the Red King has been slain — the holder of the Black King Identity automatically acquires the Red King Identity.]

[Currently, someone has already gathered 600 Ember Stones first! The position of the Red King Exposure Card is announced —]

[Due to the death of the former Red King, the exposure target of the Red King Exposure Card is replaced by the new Red King —]

The consecutive four messages left the six people in Nine Domains stunned, all looking up at the sky in surprise.

When Jin Shiyin obtained the Heavenly Gate Card, they all knew he would definitely go to the Heavenly Realm to take refuge.

But it wasn't long, and Jin Shiyin was dead?

Who killed him?

Yophiel? Or the Black Spade Man?

Even though Jin Shiyin was gravely injured now, with strength at most at mid-Holy Realm, somewhat weak, but wouldn't it still be quite difficult for Yophiel to kill Jin Shiyin?

After all, everyone knows that Jin Shiyin's means of self-preservation are still very strong.

Various puzzles lingered in everyone's hearts.

Meanwhile, Xia Feng had already finished counting his spoils.

Although Jin Shiyin squandered a lot, he still left a considerable legacy.

[You obtained six First Level item cards...]

[You obtained two Second Level item cards: True Heart Card, Designated Exposure Card]

Of course, item cards were secondary; the truly important thing was the Ember Stones.

[You obtained 221 Ember Stones —]

[Currently possess Ember Stones: (+221) 660 pieces]

Only, Jin Shiyin had just consumed 100 Ember Stones using Ash Domain Divine Punishment, which made Xia Feng feel quite distressed.

What a waste!

Xia Feng shook his head silently, but it was something unavoidable; Jin Shiyin didn't have Jinyang Divine Domain, nor did he have a Constant Star for energy, probably intending to use Ash Domain Divine Punishment to kill Xia Feng to gain the kill reward.

After all, if Ash Domain Divine Punishment item card successfully kills the target, it can receive a reward of 150 Ember Stones.

For the confident Jin Shiyin, indeed, it would have been a good deal.

While pondering, Xia Feng took stock of his assets.

[First Level item cards (12): Advanced Luck Card*2, Loan Card*2, Random Information Card*4, Melting Card*4]

[Second Level item cards (6): Forced Robbery*1, Unbreakable*1, True Heart Card*2, Designated Exposure Position*2]

[Third Level item cards (3): Ash Domain Divine Punishment*1, Parasite*1 (effective at current round), Death Carnival*1]

[You are currently Double King of Black/Red, accumulating 1000 Ember Stones to achieve victory —]

[If you die, 'Black King Identity Card' and 'Red King Identity Card' will drop, and both cards can be seized. The new person obtaining 'Red King Identity Card' can become the new Red King → If new Red King dies → New Black King inherits Red King → New Black King dies, can drop Double King Cards again... Such cycle]

According to this rule, actually a maximum of four cycles can force an end to the game.

After all, each cycle results in two deaths, after four cycles, eight people die.

Of course, this is the extreme state, with a very low likelihood, as it's unlikely that only two people die each cycle, and exactly Black King and Red King die.

Now Xia Feng has become the Double King in the first cycle. If he wins, this hunt ends directly; if he dies, the remaining people can continue into the second cycle.

Xia Feng glanced at his 660 Ember Stones, eyes narrowed, it's time to end this hunting game.

The rewards for Third Level · Death Carnival will be granted during the settlement phase; besides, there's first kill reward, hunt reward, and various other miscellaneous rewards, estimating that if he can survive to the fifth round, he can easily win.

If luck is a bit better, and more people die this round, letting Death Carnival take effect, he might say he can secure a victory just by entering the fourth round settlement!

While pondering, Xia Feng opened 'Red King's full channel communication' and took a glance.

After acquiring the Double King Identity, he naturally inherited some of the Red King's advantages, such as full channel communication and full channel trading post.

He can communicate with anyone using a encrypted identity and trade with anyone.

However, he was taken back, directly breaking into a cold sweat upon seeing it.

[Red King·group message to 7 people: Jinyang Divine Domain Spirit Paper is in the hands of Black Spade Man!! Rush to Heavenly —]

6!

This is the last message sent by Jin Shiyin before his sanity collapsed in chaotic thoughts, though cut short, but everyone can guess.

The Black Spade Man is in the Heavenly Realm; the Black Spade Man killed Jin Shiyin.

The Black Spade Man secretly snatched the Jinyang Spirit Paper!

Damned, Xia Feng originally wanted to hide a bit longer, since this S-Class Spirit Paper will definitely provoke hostility from Black Moon Pope and Jinyang Tian.

These two have prepared so many years for Jinyang Divine Domain, they can't possibly just give up so easily!

And most importantly, even though Jin Shiyin is dead, the Heavenly Gate Card he used is still in effect.

The Heavenly Gate Card can allow three seats to enter the Heavenly Realm, it's unknown who he allocated the remaining two spots to.

Thinking of this, Xia Feng couldn't help but sigh while holding his forehead; Jinyang Tian and Jin Shiyin are allies.

One of the spots definitely belongs to Jinyang Tian.

Jinyang Tian, though arrogant, is indeed capable, far surpassing Jin Shiyin in strength.

Although both are in the Holy Realm, their power isn't on the same level.

Not easy to deal with.

And just as Xia Feng was deep in thought, speaking of the devil...

In the vision of his doppelgänger hidden on Sky-reaching Island, a tall man with Platinum Eagle Helmet covering his forehead hurriedly flew in from the west.

It was Jinyang Tian!

Rapidly transforming into a golden light streaming towards the direction of the Heavenly Gate.

Absurdly fast, this guy's speed is indeed impressive!
