508: True Spirit Attached to Sword

The green phosphorous ghost fires beneath Hundred Refinements Demon Venerable’s bone mask suddenly shrank!

Violent killing intent, like a breached devil sea, erupted with a crash!

Even the skeletal throne beneath him let out an overburdened creak! How many years had it been?

For an ant to dare provoke him like this! Let alone after destroying the ancient array and slaughtering his subordinates!

"You piece of trash hiding your head and showing your tail! This seat will definitely skin you alive, pull out your tendons, and refine your Soul over the Myriad Year Corpse Fire!!"

The decaying, hollow voice filled with Soul-tearing fury echoed through the rift valley!

But he didn't move!

Not out of fear, but because the group of Righteous Path remnants below, fleeing like stray dogs, were targets that needed to be strangled!

He raised his giant skeletal claw, and his terrifying Divine Thought instantly locked onto Lin Mingyuan's group, who were rushing out of the valley mouth with unstable and wretched Auras!

A wisp of green phosphorous fire leaped at his fingertips, a Soul-locking life-chaser!

"Hmph!" Yao Delong let out a cold snort, like the gavel of a judge in Hell slamming down!

"Old dog! Your opponent is me!"

Before his voice even faded, the soul devouring banner suddenly unfurled furiously in the air!

Wuuu wuuu—!

In an instant! Yin winds howled! Ghostly wails filled the fields!

Nearly ten thousand grim soul soldiers, unafraid of death, were like an opened sluice of blood-colored tide,

Covering the sky and earth, carrying malice that could tear everything apart,

Madly sweeping from all directions of the rift valley toward the remaining devil soldiers who were being pressured by Hundred Refinements Demon Venerable’s Aura and trying to regroup to block Lin Mingyuan's breakout!

At the same time!

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! ... Six massive black shadows, ten times more terrifying than the soul soldiers and radiating sky-shattering resentment and power fluctuations at the Soul Transformation level, suddenly leaped out of the banner!

Leading them was the "Savage Demon" Soul General, who only had half a body left but still radiated a violent and overbearing will!

It had no Physical Body, only a giant Soul form burning with black Soul flames, and it actually condensed a savage, roaring Soul Power battle axe in its hand!

Following it were five powerful Soul shadows of different forms, all radiating sky-high Devilish Qi—

They were formed from the five Soul Transformation devil cultivators Yao Delong had previously ambushed and killed on the periphery!

Nearly a hundred Soul Generals with fierce Auras followed closely behind, like a commander's personal guards!

"Tear them apart!!" Yao Delong’s cold will pierced through the Soul banner, reaching the core!

"Awoo—!!"

Led by the Savage Demon's remnant Soul, the six Soul Transformation Soul Generals let out silent, violent roars (Soul vibrations)!

Leading the countless soul soldiers, they turned into a flood of death sweeping through heaven and earth,

Fiercely pouncing toward the blocking battle formation hastily set up by the fleeing and resisting devil cultivators like Burning Flame Demon and Ghost Poison Granny!

"Damn it! It's those vengeful spirits!!"

"Savage... Captain Savage Demon?!"

Seeing that familiar yet extremely distorted Soul shadow pouncing at him, Burning Flame Demon, who was forced to turn and resist, felt his mind shake violently again!

His magma body splattered! Ghost Poison Granny even let out a piercing scream: "Stop them!!"

Instantly! The defensive line hastily constructed by the devil cultivators collided fiercely with this ghostly army composed of pure resentment, Evil Qi, and refined Primordial Spirits!

Flesh and blood flew! Souls wailed and devils roared! The scene instantly fell into an even more chaotic and tragic Hell!

The pressure on Lin Mingyuan and the others drastically decreased!

"You seek death!!!"

Seeing Yao Delong daring to deploy troops and generals right in front of him,

Even driving the Soul of the Savage Demon he had killed to stop his purging of the prey, Hundred Refinements Demon Venerable was truly enraged!

It was an extreme unholy fire brought about by being continuously provoked by an ant!

Boom!!

The skeletal throne disappeared on the spot!

In the next moment, as if ignoring spatial distance, accompanied by the devilish sound of hundreds of millions of corpses wailing, he suddenly appeared above Yao Delong's head!

A giant skeletal claw covered in dark purple devil armor and burning with wretched green phosphorous fire tore through the sky, pressing down toward Yao Delong's head!

Hundred Refinements Myriad Withered Palm!

Before the palm even arrived, a Nirvana Dao principle of all things withering, draining life, and rotting all things had already descended!

Moisture in the air instantly dried up, and rocks silently turned to ash.

Some of the weaker soul soldiers below even let out miserable cries, their Soul bodies starting to evaporate and dissipate!

This was the true strength of Void Refinement Mid-stage! Invoking the power of the Laws of heaven and earth!

Unavoidable! A head-on clash!

The light of Chaos flashed in Yao Delong’s eyes! Without any hesitation, he flipped his hand,

And a dragon-eye-sized Medicinal Pill, entwined with chaotic sunset light, was instantly slapped into his mouth!

myriad manifestations returning to origin pill!

Boom—!!!

An indescribable torrent of terrifying medicinal power, enough to burst the Physical Body of an ordinary Spirit Transformation Cultivator, instantly exploded within Yao Delong’s limbs, bones, Dantian, and Sea of Consciousness!

It felt as if hundreds of millions of stars were ignited within his body at the same time!

His meridians were stretched, torn, and reorganized by the violent energy!

His Aura was like a rocket tearing through the sky, soaring crazily at a suffocating speed!

Late Stage Soul Transformation!

A violent Aura far exceeding the peak of Soul Transformation and infinitely approaching the threshold of Void Refining,

Mixed with the death intent of Nirvana and the unending power of the Chaos furnace, it boldly rose from Yao Delong’s body,

Forcing back the pressure of the Nirvana devil Aura that withered all things!

"Useless ant! Forcing your Realm higher is nothing more than accelerating your death!"

Hundred Refinements Demon Venerable’s green fires flickered, his voice as cold as ten-thousand-year-old iron. The downward press of his skeletal claw did not weaken in the slightest!

Now!

In Yao Delong’s eyes, a point of pure Nirvana light brightened to the extreme! Intangible and formless, yet seemingly able to pierce through eternity!

Heart Sword—Nirvana Soul Domain! Expand!

A terrifying field of will aimed at the Soul Origin, enough to instantly freeze and tear apart a Soul Transformation Primordial Spirit, centered on Yao Delong’s brow,

Silently yet faster than a lightning bolt, it surged out,

Instantly enveloping the giant devil shadow hidden behind that terrifying skeletal claw above!

Buzz!

Hundred Refinements Demon Venerable’s massive will only swayed slightly!

At the brow of his skull mask, a Soul secret treasure shaped like a dark-etched bone shield, embedded deep within the skeletal remains, suddenly lit up with a layer of extremely faint ghostly light!

It was the 'Netherworld Bone Guard'!

Although it was only a low-grade heavenly artifact-level defensive devil treasure,

Combined with Hundred Refinements Demon Venerable’s Void Refining Realm Divine Thought, it was enough to withstand most Soul-level surprise attacks and erosions!

"Tricks!" Hundred Refinements Demon Venerable’s voice carried disdain!

His skeletal claw had already reached three feet above Yao Delong’s head! Death was within reach!

"Is that so?" The sharp arc at the corner of Yao Delong’s mouth deepened! This was the moment he was waiting for!

The soul devouring true spirit sword in his right hand, dripping with true devil blood, suddenly erupted with a piercing shriek!

On the sword's body, a layer of illusory and sacred gold-red flaming light instantly rose!

It was not real fire, but the Soul of the ancient true spirit sleeping within the sword—the Soul Devouring Sword Spirit being awakened!

As the sword edge flickered, strange ripples appeared in space!

True Spirit Appended to the Sword! Striking directly at the Divine Soul!

At the same time!

He joined his left hand's sword fingers and slashed through the void! Yin and Yang sunset glow appeared without warning!

The left half was a brilliant sunset glow containing majestic vitality like the rising sun, while the right half was a deathly gray glow like the setting sun and cold, sinking stars!

Two seemingly contradictory divine glows instantly intertwined and wound around each other, condensing on the edge of the soul devouring true spirit sword!

Sunset Glow Illuminating Yin-Yang Art—Yin-Yang Dawn Slaying!

The Dao principles of life and death merged, collided, and surged upon it, invoking the most fundamental power fluctuations in heaven and earth!

Using the power of the true spirit as the tip! Using the two Qis of Yin and Yang as the blade! In one strike, it cuts the Physical Body! And even more, it cuts the true spirit Soul!

"Yin-Yang Dawn, Slay—!"

Yao Delong let out a sharp howl toward the sky! The Soul Devouring Sword, burning with gold-red true spirit flames,

Carrying the Yin-Yang Dao power that tore through life and death, fiercely slashed toward the Hundred Refinements Myriad Withered Palm pressing down!
