At the moment when the inner elixir barrier was broken, the high priest, who was in extreme pain with a distorted face, suddenly felt his body as if it had been nourished by a shower of sweet rain, and the feeling of comfort quickly spread throughout his body like a tide.

All along, the energy in his body has been running around everywhere, and he can't find an outlet to vent it, causing him great torture.

However, at this moment, the energies that were originally out of control like wild horses seemed to have found their way home, and they all rushed towards the inner elixir that had just broken through to the eighth level.

The inner elixir was like an extremely hungry beast, madly devouring the energies.

Even if massive amounts of energy were to continuously pour into it, it seemed unable to fill its bottomless appetite.

Outside the high priest's body, the powerful energy in the huge magic circle that should have flowed continuously to the other three peak Qi-level powerhouses suddenly changed its direction at this moment, as if it was controlled by an invisible giant hand.

They no longer followed the predetermined route, but were attracted by the power of the high priest, and swarmed towards the place where the high priest was like a tide.

In an instant, the energy in the entire space seemed to have found its backbone, and it began to spin at high speed with the high priest as the core. These energies intertwined and merged with each other, and finally formed an extremely dazzling and shocking huge energy torrent. From a distance, it was like a giant dragon shining with colorful light, roaring and rushing towards the high priest.

Tian Ye, who was a little further away, saw this scene and couldn't help but frown. He thought to himself:

"I never expected this! After the high priest successfully broke through to the eighth level, his inner core's thirst for energy became so strong that it was just like a starving person who couldn't wait to see delicious food."

Thinking of this, Tian Ye did not dare to hesitate at all, and immediately mobilized the powerful energy hidden in his body.

As a powerful force burst out from him, the high priest was instantly pulled out of the spirit gathering magic circle.

Then, Tian Ye made a prompt decision and slashed out a sharp and powerful energy, easily cutting off the connection between the high priest and the magic circle. Then, he waved his arm and brought the high priest directly to his side.

At this moment, the massive amount of energy that was originally surging towards the high priest, having lost its target, all suddenly turned to the other people.

At first, these people who had lost their energy were a little confused and at a loss, but soon they noticed the unusual movement of energy in the surrounding environment.

By the time they reacted, the huge amount of energy had already surged in like a flood. Faced with such a sudden opportunity, these people were stunned at first, and then they opened their pores without hesitation, fully activated their skills, and began to frantically absorb the surging energy.

He opened his eyes and found that he had already left the magic circle. He looked at Tian Ye beside him. He had just sensed that it was Tian Ye who had forcibly grabbed him out. The dissatisfaction he had just felt towards Tian Ye came from the slave contract in his mind, which was like a silver needle stirring in his brain and began to punish him.

"Ah! Master, please spare me, Master, please spare me!"

With a cry of terror, the high priest knelt down beside the vast field like a frightened bird, his body trembling with extreme fear, begging for mercy:

"Please have mercy on me and let me go. I really know I am wrong!"

However, facing this desperate plea, Tian Ye standing aside remained unmoved. He crossed his arms, stared coldly at the person in front of him, and slowly said:

"Humph, I can't control this. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame the autonomous behavior of the contract array. But since this situation has already occurred, it is enough to show that you are dissatisfied with me. Therefore, I think it is necessary to give you a little punishment."

As he said this, the corners of Tian Ye's mouth slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile.

In fact, seeing the high priest in such a miserable state, Tian Ye already knew what had happened. He thought to himself:

"You fellow, I finally helped you successfully break through to the eighth level, but you are still not satisfied and even dare to blame me. If I don't teach you a lesson today, you will be even harder to discipline in the future."

After hearing what Tian Ye said, the high priest was so frightened that his face turned pale and he collapsed to the ground. He knew that the mistake he made this time was extremely serious. If he could not ask for Tian Ye's forgiveness, the consequences would be disastrous. So, he didn't care about anything else, and desperately hugged Tian Ye's thighs, and continued to plead with tears:

"My Lord Priest, I really won't dare to do it again! Please have mercy on me and forgive me this time! I promise that I will be loyal to you from now on and will never have two minds!"

However, no matter how much the high priest begged, the heart-piercing pain still raged in his mind, with no sign of abating.

Time passed by minute by minute, and after about two minutes, the unbearable pain finally began to slowly subside. At this moment, the high priest's clothes were already soaked with sweat and stuck to his body tightly, as if he had just been pulled out of the water. Not only that, the heavy blow from the depths of his soul just now made him feel horrified and terrified.

The high priest, who had just recovered from his chaotic state, fell to his knees in front of Tianye with a thud, as if all his strength had been drained away.

He hugged Tian Ye's calf tightly, his body trembling with extreme fear, and he kept muttering:

"Master! I really know I was wrong, and I will never have such thoughts again! Master, please be magnanimous and forgive me this time! This is definitely the last time, please have mercy on me!"

The high priest, who was once high and mighty, now looked like a child who was afraid of being punished after making a mistake, with a face full of regret and fear.

He knew very well that it was the sudden attack of the contract array that caused him to fall into the terrible situation of losing his self-awareness.

But what frightened him even more was that the mysterious person who cast the contract array on him, Tian Ye, had the terrifying power to detonate the contract array at any time. So even though he had regained some of his sanity at this moment, the high priest still did not dare to be negligent and desperately begged for mercy from Tian Ye.

Tian Ye looked at the high priest begging at his feet, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he said softly:

"Forget it, forget it. No one is perfect. It's normal for people to be a little selfish and emotional. I can understand that. But it's hard to say whether this contract formation will forgive you..." After saying that, Tian Ye waved his hand slightly, signaling the high priest to stand up.

The high priest stood up quickly as if he had been pardoned, but he still lowered his head and did not dare to look directly at Tian Ye. Tian Ye was smiling and spoke in a kind and amiable tone, just like a tolerant and generous old man in the neighborhood treating a naughty child, full of patience and tolerance:

"Okay, there's no need to be so anxious. I have no intention of blaming you, and I won't do anything to you because of this. Just don't worry." Hearing this, the high priest's heart finally settled down a little.
