Ye Qiu's soul floated out from the top of his head, slowly approaching the black sphere.
"Rest assured, I won't attack you, because it wouldn't benefit me in any way," said the Earth consciousness, seemingly trying to lower Ye Qiu's guard.
Once Ye Qiu's soul body entered the black sphere, he discovered an energy mass inside, with the Earth's consciousness emanating sounds from here.
"Now you can merge into it. You'll become the master of the Earth, the entire Earth will be under your control as Heavenly Dao, as a divine being!" said the Earth consciousness.
Ye Qiu appeared delighted and began to merge with the energy mass.
The Earth consciousness felt Ye Qiu's soul merging into itself, and its demeanor suddenly changed.
"You said you wouldn't attack me?" Ye Qiu's expression suddenly changed drastically as he realized from the beginning of his merge that his soul power was being absorbed, turning into energy for the other.
This was assimilating him.
