150: Chapter 150 Unsheathed

Luo Qinghe's pupils constricted sharply.

"Soul Judgment?! Su Bai's world has the ability for Soul Judgment?!"

For the first time, a tremor appeared in his voice.

The seven demon beasts simultaneously felt the threat of that power of judgment. The Heavenly Demon Fox's Charm Mist was useless before the golden light, because it was not the body being judged, but the soul. The Mystic Demon Python's poison mist could not corrode rules, and the Yellow Demon Tiger's spatial rifts could not tear through karma.

The Chronos Demon Deer's antlers glowed with an emerald green light, and time threads drifted out from the antlers, attempting to wrap around the tiger demons being judged to delay the speed of the judgment.

But the City God's power of judgment was unaffected by time.

The rules of the Six Paths of Reincarnation stood above time.

As soon as the Chronos Demon Deer's time threads touched the golden light of judgment, they were repelled by the power of rules. The emerald green light collided with the golden light, erupting in a piercing roar. The Chronos Demon Deer's body shook violently, and the first crack appeared on its antlers.

"The power of time... was repelled?!" The Chronos Demon Deer's voice was full of disbelief.

The City God stood upon the Soul Capturing Platform, his deep brown eyes watching the Chronos Demon Deer, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.

"The Underworld's judgment does not trace the past nor involve the future. It only concerns the present. Your power of time cannot judge the soul."

He raised the seal of the city god once more.

This time, the range covered by the golden light was even larger. Not just the tiger demons, but even the wolf demons, bear demons, deer demons, and fox demons were all within the golden light's reach.

Soul Judgment, fully unfolded.

Luo Qinghe knew he could not let the City God continue the judgment.

If Soul Judgment covered the entire Myriad Demon World, at least half of his 5.7 million demon beasts would be dragged into the hell path. Demon beasts without souls were nothing but empty shells.

He had to interrupt the City God's judgment.

"Heavenly Demon Fox, charm the City God! Chronos Demon Deer, delay the judgment! Flood Demon Dragon, charge the border of the Netherworld World head-on! All other demon beasts, provide full cover!"

The seven demon beasts moved simultaneously.

The Heavenly Demon Fox's nine tails suddenly spread out, and a deep purple light surged from them, turning into a pink torrent that bypassed the golden light of judgment and surged toward the City God.

Charm Mist.

That was not an attack, but an erosion of will. Once enveloped by the Charm Mist, the target would fall into hallucinations, lose their judgment, and even be controlled by the Heavenly Demon Fox.

The City God watched the approaching pink mist, his expression unchanged.

He simply raised his left hand and gave it a gentle wave.

"Soul Capturing Platform, empower."

The blood-red character for "Command" on the Soul Capturing Platform suddenly lit up. Blood-red light surged from the high platform, enveloping the City God's body. Before the blood light, the pink mist evaporated instantly, like ice and snow facing a raging fire.

The Heavenly Demon Fox's power of charm was completely countered by the Soul Capturing Platform's power of suppression.

"How is this possible?!" The Heavenly Demon Fox's violet eyes were full of shock. "My power of charm can even control peak sixth-rank heroes, yet your City God..."

She didn't finish her sentence. A golden chain shot out from the golden light of judgment, entangling one of her tails.

The City God's deep brown eyes looked at her, like a judge looking at a prisoner in the dock.

"Heavenly Demon Fox Su Meiren, for using charm techniques to manipulate living beings and causing them to slaughter one another in over 37,000 instances, your sins are monstrous. You are sentenced to the hell path's Steamer Hell for a term of three thousand years."

The golden chain suddenly tightened, and one of the Heavenly Demon Fox's tails was forcibly stripped from her body and dragged toward the Netherworld World. That tail struggled, twisted, and disintegrated in the void, turning into countless deep purple specks of light that were swallowed by the Yin Qi.

The Heavenly Demon Fox let out a pained shriek, her remaining eight tails thrashing wildly as she tried to break free from the power of judgment. But the City God's chains were not a physical restraint; she could not break free.

The Flood Demon Dragon took action.

Crimson Dragon Flame erupted from the Flood Demon Dragon's mouth, turning into a massive fire dragon that bypassed the golden light of judgment and lunged directly at the border of the Netherworld World.

This time, the Dragon Flame did not attack the Six Paths of Reincarnation, but the border of the Netherworld World itself.

Luo Qinghe had studied every one of Su Bai's battles during the Points Race. He knew that the Six Paths of Reincarnation's devouring had a limit, but he knew even better that the defense of the Six Paths of Reincarnation was not infinite. If the attack intensity was great enough or the frequency high enough, the border of the Netherworld World would be cracked.

The Ghost King appeared at the border.

The ghost king sword was unsheathed. Nether Slash.

The grayish-white sword qi collided with the crimson Dragon Flame, erupting in a deafening roar. The sword qi split the Dragon Flame in two, but the aftershock of the Dragon Flame still struck the border of the Netherworld World, jolting out a tiny crack.

The Flood Demon Dragon's eyes lit up.

"Ghost King, your sword can slash souls, but it cannot slash my Dragon Flame. My Dragon Flame is the power of bloodline, not demon qi. Your Six Paths of Reincarnation can devour demon qi, but it cannot swallow the dragon bloodline."

He opened his mouth again, and the Dragon Flame was even more violent than before.

The Ghost King did not speak. He simply raised the ghost king sword, its deep blue light interweaving with the grayish-white Yin Qi. The phantom of the Ghost Gate Pass behind him expanded suddenly, and countless ghosts surged out from it.

These were the Ghost Soldiers condensed from the energy of deceased souls absorbed by the Netherworld World, a second-tier unit numbering over a hundred thousand.

A hundred thousand Ghost Soldiers lined up behind the Ghost King, injecting their own soul energy into the ghost king sword.

The light on the ghost king sword turned from deep blue to grayish-white, and the blade swelled to a length of a hundred zhang.

"Yellow Spring Road."

The Ghost King softly uttered those three words.

A grayish-white path extended from beneath the Ghost King's feet, crossing the border of the Netherworld World, traversing the void, and reaching directly in front of the Flood Demon Dragon.

Upon the path, Yin Qi surged like the sea, and the wails of countless souls echoed in the void. Wherever the Yellow Spring Road passed, the demon qi in the void was corroded, purified, and dragged into the Yellow Spring.

The Flood Demon Dragon's body suddenly stiffened.

He felt his soul being pulled by something. It wasn't the power of judgment, but the guiding power of the Yellow Spring Road. That road was summoning his soul, wanting to drag him into the Yellow Spring.

He did his best to steady his soul, and the demon fire on his dragon horns flared up, temporarily pushing back the guiding power of the Yellow Spring Road.

But at that very moment, the Ghost King moved.

The ghost king sword slashed down.

It wasn't a Nether Slash, but the purest strike upon the Yellow Spring Road.

The grayish-white sword qi followed the path of the Yellow Spring Road, slashing straight toward the Flood Demon Dragon.

The Flood Demon Dragon raised his dragon claws to block. The dragon claws were covered in crimson dragon scales, each scale flowing with magma-like patterns.

The sword qi struck the dragon claws.

Dragon scales shattered. Magma splattered. Dragon Blood gushed out.

The Flood Demon Dragon's left front claw was severed at the wrist, and crimson Dragon Blood gushed from the wound, turning into a sky full of flames in the void.

"Roar!!"

The Flood Demon Dragon let out a roar of pain, the Dragon Blood at the severed claw burning wildly in an attempt to regenerate the limb. But the power of the Yellow Spring attached to the ghost king sword was corroding his wound, making regeneration extremely slow.

Luo Qinghe's expression changed completely.

"The Flood Demon Dragon had a claw severed?!"

He grit his teeth, no longer holding back.

"Chronos Demon Deer, Time Domain! All demon beasts, attack the border of the Netherworld World with everything you've got! I don't believe his border can't be broken through!"

The Chronos Demon Deer's antlers lit up with a piercing emerald green light.

Time threads drifted from the antlers, no longer wrapping around the demon beasts, but weaving into a massive domain that enveloped the entire void.

Time Domain.

Within the domain, the flow of time was distorted. On the side closer to the Netherworld World, time was accelerated; on the side farther from the Netherworld World, time was decelerated.

The Chronos Demon Deer's target was not Su Bai's heroes, but the border of the Netherworld World.

If the border of the Netherworld World was accelerated, its self-repair speed would slow down; if the border was decelerated, the reaction speed of Su Bai's Hero Units would slow down.

It was a tactic that killed two birds with one stone.
