496: The rest... I'll take care of it!

Just at this moment!

Sshhh—

A faint yet extremely tenacious sound of wind breaking rang out!

A speck of emerald light! Fast as a cold star!

It shot out from the direction of the black-robed figure in the Void Realm battlefield!

It pierced through the chaotic energy and violent aftermath of the Evil Qi with incomparable precision, instantly reaching before Meng Ya's eyes!

The emerald light receded! A jade-colored pill, the size of a dragon's eye and flowing with pure, vibrant vitality throughout its body, hovered silently!

A rich and majestic Aura of life rushed toward him, even causing the surging metallic taste of blood in Meng Ya's chest and lungs to ease!

"Yao... Son-in-Law Yao!"

Meng Ya's pupils contracted violently. Based solely on the pill pattern and medicinal fragrance, he instantly identified this as a Seventh-Order Treasure Pill that only a great expert could refine—a yimu azure spirit pill!

This was a sacred object capable of bringing the dead back to life and regrowing flesh and bones, containing a trace of the vitality of creation!

"It's too precious! This old man cannot..."

"Swallow it!!!"

A sharp shout, like thunder from the nine heavens, carried an unquestionable, resolute dominance, rudely interrupting all his refusals!

Yao Delong's voice was like quenched meteoric iron, icy cold yet containing a heaven-burning rage, slamming heavily into everyone's ears:

"At a time like this, why the hesitation! Recover your combat strength! You all—stay here and guard the formation!"

His gaze didn't even sweep over the heavily injured Meng Ya; it remained locked on the five shadows ahead that were grinning and driving the destructive Demonic Energy!

"The rest... leave it to me!"

Hum!

The moment his voice fell!

Yao Delong stepped forward—one step!

Just one step!

This step was like shattering the silence of an ancient glacier!

Beneath his feet, the charred lava permafrost silently caved in, forming a footprint over a foot deep!

A circle of condensed-to-the-extreme, nearly transparent Chaos Qi ripples suddenly expanded, with that sole as the center!

Roar—?!

The dozens of Golden Core and Nascent Soul demonic creatures in front, which had already rushed to the broken light screen of the Formation Plate with their hideous faces almost pressed against the transparent barrier, were letting out bloodthirsty roars of impending victory, but their ferocious and smug expressions instantly froze on their faces!

A pure Aura, like an ancient divine mountain pressing down from the sky, shrouded them!

Their momentum of rushing forward was forcibly nailed to the spot!

Even several of the most aggressive Nascent Soul scale demons had their sturdy bodies slightly arched backward by this Aura!

It was as if they had crashed into an invisible wall of sighs!

"Seeking death! You still dare to be distracted?"

The green flames in the eyes of the Ghost Skull Demon Venerable flared with vicious light!

Its withered claws slashed forward violently!

The Bone Soul-Slaying Banner was unleashed with a boom!

"Kill him—!"

The four demons—Manshan, Blood Vulture, Yinmei, and Iron Corpse—roared sharply, following closely behind!

Five black beams of Demonic Energy, more condensed than before and containing the power of the Law of Divine Soul destruction, were like five giant rafters supporting the desperate Netherworld, carrying a shrill whistle that tore through the Void Realm!

They locked onto Yao Delong's small body!

They crashed down with a boom!

The five demons joined forces!

A full-strength strangulation at the Peak Late Stage Soul Transformation! Its momentum was enough to sink a hundred miles of mountains and rivers into the abyss!

Just at this critical moment when the demonic might descended upon his head and the Moyang Sect Disciples despairingly closed their eyes!

The toe of Yao Delong's foot—the one that had taken that step—landed!

At the same time, his right hand lifted slightly, moving as casually as brushing away dust before his eyes, and he gently wiped the void in front of him—

Hum!

The Red Phoenix Feather Spirit Ring suddenly lit up on his finger!

Eight sword shadows, blood-red in color and varied in form, yet wreathed in an endless Aura of slaughter, tore through the ring's space!

Like eight world-destroying fire dragons roaring, they whistled and shot into the sky instantly!

The sword hum tore through the nine heavens!

The moment those eight crimson sword shadows ascended, they instantly triggered the most primal killing Evil Qi between heaven and earth!

They surrounded the main sword that rose with them—the high-grade heavenly artifact, Crimson Sky—which was entirely made of red gold and flowed with glazed divine flames that seemed capable of melting stars along its blade!

Nine swords hung in the sky!

A terrifying Aura that made the hundred-mile space moan and caused the Laws circulating between heaven and earth to become chaotic and inverted instantly descended!

Hum—Crack, crack, crack!!!

The spatial structure for several miles around was like crystal thrown into a furnace, emitting a groan of impending collapse!

A huge, crimson, and complex array of billions of ancient divine patterns, impossible to describe in words, instantly appeared out of thin air, shrouding the entire core area of the dark demonic cultivator camp!

At the core of the sword formation, a phantom giant sword, purely condensed from the ultimate destructive Sword Qi, hung silently!

The sword's tip pointed—shockingly—at the five great Soul Transformation demonic sources diving down!

"Lesser Immortal Slaying Sword Formation!"

Yao Delong's icy voice, like a decree declaring war, resounded through heaven and earth,

"Second Form—God Slaying!"

There was no flashing Sword Qi light!

No massive fluctuations tearing apart the sky and earth!

An invisible! Colorless! Yet containing the ultimate will to pierce through all matter and reach the deepest Origin of the Divine Soul to erase it!

From the core of the entire sword formation!

From the nine supreme killing Dao swords!

Like a deep abyss mouth that had been silent for billions of years—it opened with a boom!

Merge!

Originating from the Heart Sword Power in Yao Delong's Sea of Consciousness that had long been honed to the Peak—the "Nirvana Soul Domain"!

That Domain specifically designed to erase the will of all sentient Divine Souls!

At this moment, like the sharpest sword spine, it instantly meshed perfectly with the "God Slaying Sword Qi," that most fierce and vicious Sword Intent specialized in severing the Primordial Spirit!

"—God Slaying · Nirvana Domain!"

Hum...!

A rule fluctuation impossible to describe in words, like the first sigh of annihilation at the beginning of the Universe, covered the entire sword formation!

It covered the Soul of every existence within the formation!

Silent!

But absolutely terrifying!

Thump! Thump! Thump!

The hundreds of Golden Core and Nascent Soul demonic cultivators, who had just been driven to howl crazily by the five demons' might and were rushing up like a tsunami, still had their ferocity frozen on their faces, while the bloodthirsty ecstasy in their eyes was instantly replaced by an infinite blankness!

Then, like wheat waves neatly cut down by a sickle—hundreds of bodies, without even emitting a scream!

They remained in their charging posture, stiffened, and fell backward!

It was like a dense rain of corpses!

A tiny, imperceptible red mark on their foreheads was the trace of life's final withering!

Their Divine Souls were completely destroyed!

Not even a residue of their demon Souls remained!

Pfft! Argh!

The remaining dozens of Mid and Late Stage Nascent Soul demonic cultivators only lasted half a blink longer than the Golden Core ones!

Their eyes first lost focus instantly, then they seemed to suffer the most cruel torture in the world!

They clutched their heads and let out heart-rending, short screams like strangled ducks!

Soul residue sprayed wildly from their seven orifices!

Their entire heads exploded silently!

Red and white matter splattered along with thick Devilish Qi!

Their bodies crashed down with a boom!

Their Demon Infants dissipated!

Only the six remaining elite demonic cultivators at the core, whose cultivation had reached Nascent Soul Perfection and whose bodies were wrapped in the light of their respective Soul-protecting demonic artifacts (either bone talismans or beast jades), shook violently!

It was as if they had been struck in the Spirit Platform by an invisible iron hammer!

Their Soul-protecting precious light flickered crazily, emitting ear-piercing wails, instantly dimming and teetering on the verge of collapse!

And the five demons were shocked at the same time, their Auras instantly wilting by fifty percent!

For the first time, their eyes were filled with boundless fear and disbelief!

What is this?!

Ignoring the Physical Body!

Ignoring defenses!

Ignoring numbers?!

A slaughter Law that acts directly on the deepest part of the billions of living beings' Divine Souls?!

Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!

The five most ferocious beams of Demonic Energy crashed into the edge of this invisible and terrifying God Slaying Nirvana Domain!

It was like hard ice crashing into an endless black hole!

The massive power and the contained demonic consciousness marks were instantly corroded by that absolute Law, which fused the killing power of heaven and earth with the nirvana of the Primordial Spirit!

Disintegrated!

Devoured!

It only stirred up a layer of insignificant, instantly annihilated Void Realm ripples, like a pebble thrown into a deep pool!
