699: Chapter 699 A Surprise Attack, Caught Off Guard!

Ye Xuan quickly snapped back to his senses, his eyes widening, his anger nearly causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood, "Where is he?"

He clenched his fists tightly, veins bulging on the back of his hands, and the phantom of the immortal soul behind him erupted with a world-destroying fluctuation, causing countless spatial rifts to appear in the surrounding space.

"Damn it! Damn it all! That ant actually escaped just like that!!!"

"Could it be that he discovered I was going to summon the immortal soul?"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

After all, when he summoned the immortal soul of his past life, there was basically very little commotion.

At most, there was only a trace of fluctuations from the Dao of slaughter.

And Lord Zhao is not an Immortal... how could he have sensed it?

Ye Xuan could not figure it out, his composure crumbling as he shouted angrily, "Lord... Zhao... if you have the guts, don't run! Get out here!"

His voice echoed all around.

There was no response.

Immediately, Ye Xuan refused to believe it and continued to use his Divine Sense to perceive the surroundings.

He still could not detect any trace of Lord Zhao.

He utilized the slaughter immortal bone.

He also could not sense the aura of the Immortal body.

As for the immortal soul he summoned, although it was powerful, it was severely damaged, so it could only launch attacks and could not perform perception.

Therefore, he had no way to find Lord Zhao now.

After searching the surroundings with no results.

Ye Xuan unwillingly withdrew his Divine Sense, his face turning livid.

"Linyuan... Sect! Lord... Zhao! I will remember you. I will definitely avenge this grudge!"

"If I can't find you, I will go find your Sect!"

"How dare you plot to seize my slaughter immortal bone and ambush me!"

"No matter what plan your Linyuan Sect has, I will destroy it directly!"

After speaking, Ye Xuan suddenly felt a wave of dizziness, "Not good, the time for summoning the immortal soul is up!"

With a thought, he directly retracted the immortal soul into the slaughter immortal bone.

At this moment, the slaughter immortal bone looked much dimmer, and the cracks on it had increased.

This also meant that for a short period, he would be unable to actively summon the immortal soul.

"Forget it, I will wait until I obtain the Opportunity for Immortal Ascension, then I will find a way to take revenge on Lord Zhao and the Linyuan Sect!"

Ye Xuan shook his head, calmed down a bit, and made up his mind.

He turned around, preparing to continue heading toward the distant Road to the Heavens.

What Ye Xuan did not notice was.

Not even a breath after he left.

An invisible fluctuation flashed by, and Su Yun returned to the place where they had just fought.

He looked at Ye Xuan's back in the distance, a glimmer of light flashing in his eyes, "The premonition of danger is gone! It seems the immortal soul has been retracted!"

Immediately, Su Yun took a step and followed silently.

As for what he was doing back here?

Of course, it was to launch a counter-attack!

If a normal Cultivator saw another Cultivator able to summon such a powerful immortal soul.

They certainly wouldn't turn back and would just run away.

Ye Xuan surely had such thoughts now, and at the same time, he must have lowered his guard.

Taking this Opportunity, he was going to catch him off guard and attack when he was unprepared!

Soon, Ye Xuan arrived near the Road to the Heavens.

Looking at the black road that shot straight into the clouds not far away, he was full of excitement, his expression agitated.

"This is probably the entrance to the next level!"

"I am one step closer to obtaining the Opportunity for Immortal Ascension!"

Just as Ye Xuan was preparing to flash forward and rush toward the Road to the Heavens.

His eyelids suddenly twitched, and he felt a strong sense of danger.

Rumble ——————

At this moment, deafening thunderclaps suddenly rang out in Ye Xuan's ears.

The sky turned pitch black.

Dark clouds gathered.

From time to time, deep black lightning flashed.

"Not right... what is this?" Ye Xuan frowned, his expression becoming vigilant.

But before he could react.

The black lightning filling the sky turned into an endless sea of lightning, sealing off his retreat from all directions, and then surged toward him.

"It's Lord Zhao! He came back? How could this be?"

Ye Xuan was stunned once again.

At this moment, he, who had originally calmed down, was suddenly furious.

"You are courting death! I thought you had escaped, but now you have obediently delivered yourself to my doorstep!"

"Since you've come... then leave your life behind!"

"My immortal soul... wait! Not good!"

Ye Xuan suddenly realized something, and his face turned ugly.

He was currently unable to actively summon the immortal soul.

In other words... he had no means to withstand this sea of lightning.

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan's spine turned cold, as he felt that every move he made seemed to be within Lord Zhao's expectations.

"This Lord Zhao... could it be that he calculated the timing?"

"He truly has no martial virtue! How despicable!"

"Break for me!"

He kept forming hand seals, condensing rays of slaughter force.

Trying to break through the surrounding sea of lightning.

Unfortunately, it was of no use.

The endless black lightning struck his Physical Body fiercely.

Moreover, his injuries from earlier had not yet recovered, which caused him to almost lose the power to resist in an instant.

Although Ye Xuan gritted his teeth and desperately urged the slaughter force within his body, unleashing various secret techniques to resist.

It was unfortunately all in vain.

He soon became numb all over, his entire body charred black, and he was heavily wounded.

Thump.

Ye Xuan lost consciousness directly, collapsed to the ground, and fell into a coma.

A spiritual light flashed by.

Su Yun appeared directly, looked down at the fallen Ye Xuan, and muttered:

"Done! Now Ye Xuan probably won't wake up so easily!"

"It's a pity that I cannot finish off Ye Xuan right now, otherwise his immortal soul might very likely revive again!"

A look of helplessness flashed across his face.

After all, the strength of Ye Xuan's immortal soul was terrifyingly extreme.

As long as it wasn't exhausted one day.

It would be very difficult for him to finish off Ye Xuan.

"However... I can still take a wave of loot! The immortal soul is hidden within the slaughter immortal bone, so it probably can't be taken away... but what about other things?"

A faint smile curled at the corners of Su Yun's mouth.

His figure flashed and descended from the air.

Looking at Ye Xuan lying on the ground in front of him.

He reached out his hand and gave a light grab.

The Storage Ring Ye Xuan was wearing on his hand was instantly snatched into his palm.

"Let me see what treasures there are!"

Su Yun's powerful Divine Sense instantly broke the imprint on it.

"Tsk tsk tsk ~ There really are a lot of good things!"

A rough glance.

A huge pile of Top-Grade Spirit Stones.

Ancient Spiritual Plants and Medicinal Pills filled half the storage space.

"What is this..."

Su Yun's eyes lit up, and he took out a jade bottle covered with complex patterns from Ye Xuan's Storage Ring.

He opened the bottle cap.

A rich and sweet fragrance gushed out.

Su Yun looked closely.

He saw that inside was spiritual liquid blooming with misty rosy light.

Within it, phantoms of white clouds vaguely flashed.

Surrounded by incomparably profound Dao rhymes.

Emitting an extremely pure Power of Law.

In his mind, Su Yun directly asked the System: "System, analyze what this is."
