290: Chapter 290 The Secret Power of the Previous Characters is Revealed, the Ancestor's Soul is Annihilated

A blood-red spike tore through the Void Realm, carrying an extremely pure, lethal intent of death, heading straight for Su Xuanchen's forehead.

Old Ancestor Blood Saber's scheming was sinister to the extreme!

Everything he had done before—kowtowing for mercy, tossing out shocking secrets about the Ancient Empress, and even deliberately lowering his voice to reveal only half a secret—was all a setup for this finishing blow!

He had calculated that when Su Xuanchen heard the words "Primal Beginning," his attention would inevitably be diverted.

At that critical moment, he decisively abandoned his battered Physical Body and compressed his fallen Divine Soul Origin, which was comparable to the Immortal King Realm, to the absolute limit, transforming it into this life-taking blood spike!

This was a pure Soul Possession secret technique!

Old Ancestor Blood Saber knew very well that Su Xuanchen's Myriad Tribulations Indestructible Primordial Demon Body was indestructible and that physical attacks could not harm him in the slightest. However, a powerful body did not mean his Soul was equally invulnerable!

As long as he rushed into the kid's Sea of Consciousness and shredded his original Soul, this perfect body that broke the Laws of the Great Dao would completely change owners!

The speed of the blood spike surpassed the limits of physical Laws.

Gu Hongchen stood behind him, her True Immortal Realm Divine Sense giving a frantic warning that brought a surge of stinging pain.

"Old Ancestor Su! Beware of Soul Possession!"

Gu Hongchen cried out in alarm, her beautiful face filled with horror. She knew the terror of such a Divine Soul attack; once it invaded the Sea of Consciousness, even a Grand Unity Golden Immortal would find it hard to save him! She tried to swing the biluo emperor sword to cut the blood spike, but she found to her despair that the physical Sword Qi passed right through it, unable to provide any substantial resistance.

Ji Luanxi stood where she was, her large, watery eyes wide with shock, her blood freezing in her veins at that moment.

"Husband!"

Chang Xiyue's cool face instantly turned pale. Without any hesitation, the Peak Emperor Realm spiritual energy within her body erupted without reservation, and she turned into a bolt of blue lightning, charging desperately toward Su Xuanchen.

She wanted to use her own body to block that fatal blood spike!

However, the gap between their Realms was simply too vast.

She had only just taken two steps when the blood spike had already crossed the spatial distance and stabbed directly in front of Su Xuanchen's forehead!

It was only half an inch away from his smooth skin!

Old Ancestor Blood Saber's extremely frenzied, greed-filled laughter exploded on a spiritual level.

"Hahaha! Kid! I, the Old Ancestor, will take this Myriad Tribulations Indestructible Primordial Demon Body of yours! From now on, I am you!"

Old Ancestor Blood Saber was excited to the extreme.

He could already imagine the invincible scene of him occupying this perfect body, controlling that Immortal King cauldron, and returning to the All Heavens and Myriad Realms to go on a killing spree!

However.

Facing this certain-kill Soul strike, Su Xuanchen's handsome face showed no sign of panic at all.

He didn't even blink, and instead, a cold, mocking sneer curled at the corner of his mouth.

"Old dog, did you think I really lost focus just now?"

Su Xuanchen's cold voice rang out directly in the depths of Old Ancestor Blood Saber's Divine Soul.

At the absolute moment before the blood spike could pierce the skin of his forehead!

At the very center of Su Xuanchen's forehead, a dazzling, brilliant golden light suddenly erupted!

An ancient, profound divine rune radiating a supreme Dao charm shot out from the depths of his forehead.

This divine rune expanded rapidly against the wind, instantly transforming into a solid golden spear!

The spear flowed with Soul Power that was pure to the extreme, its tip pointing straight at the dark red blood spike.

Boom—!!!

An earth-shattering metallic roar exploded in the depths of everyone's Divine Soul!

This was not a physical collision at all, but the purest and most dangerous of Soul confrontations!

A violent Divine Soul storm centered on the point of impact, sweeping wildly in all directions.

Gu Hongchen let out a muffled groan, feeling a sharp pain in her mind as she retreated several steps to steady herself.

Chang Xiyue, who was halfway through her charge, was directly blown back by the Divine Soul aftershock and fell to the ground.

In mid-air.

That blood spike, carrying all the Divine Soul power of an Immortal King, was actually held firmly half an inch in front of Su Xuanchen's forehead by that golden spear!

It could not advance even a fraction!

Not only that, but the Dao charm radiating from the golden spear was frantically purifying and melting away the fallen aura on the blood spike.

Old Ancestor Blood Saber was completely stunned.

His wild laughter stopped abruptly, replaced by extreme horror and incomprehensible despair!

"This is impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"

Old Ancestor Blood Saber's Divine Soul screamed frantically within the blood spike, his voice trembling violently.

"You are just a True Immortal Realm ant! How could your Soul Power be so powerful! What is this Dao charm on the spear! Why can it even suppress my immortal Divine Soul!"

Old Ancestor Blood Saber felt his worldview being completely crushed.

He had thought Su Xuanchen's body was invincible and that his Soul would surely be a weakness. Who could have imagined that this kid's Soul defense was ten times more freakish than that Myriad Tribulations Indestructible Primordial Demon Body!

The power contained within that golden spear was vast, boundless, and indestructible; there were simply no flaws to speak of!

Su Xuanchen stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes showing the indifference one would have toward a dead man.

"With just this bit of fragmented Divine Soul, you dare to play at Possession in front of me?"

Su Xuanchen sneered.

He had long since practiced the "Secret of Foretelling" from among the Nine Secrets.

This supreme secret technique focused on the Primordial Spirit and Soul, allowing the practitioner's Soul Power to reach a terrifying level and even foresee danger.

With the Secret of Foretelling protecting his Sea of Consciousness, Su Xuanchen's Soul was already perfect and flawless; there was no possibility of him being possessed. Old Ancestor Blood Saber's actions were completely suicidal.

"Old dog, you talk too much. Disappear completely for me."

Su Xuanchen's expression turned cold as he activated the Soul Power in his Sea of Consciousness.

Hum!

The golden spear hovering in front of his forehead suddenly surged with golden light, erupting into a blindingly brilliant aurora!

The spear thrust forward violently!

Crack!

A very crisp sound of shattering rang out.

Old Ancestor Blood Saber's proud, highly compressed Divine Soul blood spike was instantly covered in dense cracks under the absolute pressure of the golden spear!

"No! No! I don't want to die! Spare me!"

Old Ancestor Blood Saber let out the final, shrill, and desperate wail of his life.

Bang!

The blood spike completely shattered!

Old Ancestor Blood Saber's fallen Divine Soul, which was comparable to the Immortal King Realm, was instantly shredded into nothingness by the Dao charm of the golden spear, leaving not even a trace of a remnant Soul behind.

His Soul had completely flown away and his spirit scattered!

The dark red Divine Soul fragments in the air lost their power source and quickly turned into countless tiny blood-colored ice crystals.

These ice crystals shimmered with a faint light in mid-air before drifting down like snow, scattering in the cold underground Killing Temple and eventually vanishing completely.

A giant of the blood path, an Immortal King who had once struck terror into countless Star Domains, had completely fallen, with even his chance for Reincarnation being utterly wiped out.

Inside the underground Killing Temple, a deathly silence returned.

The golden light at Su Xuanchen's forehead slowly retracted, and the golden spear turned back into a divine rune, disappearing into his Sea of Consciousness.

He patted his hands, his expression relaxed, as if he hadn't just experienced a life-or-death crisis.

Only then did the others behind him finally snap out of their extreme shock.

"Husband!"

Ji Luanxi let out a cry that bordered on sobbing as she scrambled up from the ground and rushed toward Su Xuanchen without regard for anything else.

Chang Xiyue also struggled to her feet, her beautiful face full of anxiety as she followed closely behind Ji Luanxi.

Gu Hongchen stood where she was, staring blankly at Su Xuanchen's back, a wave of shock that could not be calmed surging in her heart.

"His body breaks the taboos of the Great Dao, and even his Soul Power is so terrifyingly peerless... Is there anything in this world he can't do?" Gu Hongchen took a deep breath, her awe for Su Xuanchen reaching its peak.

Ji Luanxi threw herself into Su Xuanchen's arms like a gust of wind, her two soft little hands immediately cupping his cheeks as she looked him over, tears of worry welling in her eyes.

"Husband! Are you okay! Were you hurt by that ugly monster!"

Ji Luanxi's voice trembled, her face full of tension and fear.

She reached out her finger and very carefully touched Su Xuanchen's smooth forehead, fearing a crack might suddenly open there.

"Say something! Are you really my husband! You haven't been possessed by that old monster, have you!"

Ji Luanxi stamped her feet in anxiety, her watery eyes staring intently into Su Xuanchen's, trying to find a trace of Old Ancestor Blood Saber's gloominess.

Chang Xiyue stood to the side, and although she didn't cry out like Ji Luanxi, her cool ice-blue eyes were also filled with extreme concern and worry. She gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, her palms covered in cold sweat.

Seeing Ji Luanxi's adorable appearance as she was about to cry from worry, the killing intent in Su Xuanchen's heart instantly vanished.

He looked at the stunningly beautiful face so close to his, and a mischievous, wicked grin immediately formed on his lips.

"Possessed?"

Su Xuanchen deliberately stiffened his face and lowered his voice, putting on a very gloomy act.

"Jie jie jie... little girl, you guessed right. I, the Old Ancestor, have successfully occupied this perfect body."

Hearing this, Ji Luanxi's face turned pale instantly. She was so scared that she let go of him, took two steps back, and her tears began to fall.

"You... give my husband back to me! You big meanie!" Ji Luanxi cried out, clenching her fists as she prepared to rush forward and fight for his life.

Chang Xiyue's expression also changed drastically as she immediately activated her spiritual energy, ready to strike.

Seeing that the girl was truly scared to tears, Su Xuanchen couldn't hold it in any longer and burst out laughing.

He pulled Ji Luanxi back into his arms and reached out to dotingly pinch her cheek, which was full of collagen.

"Alright, I was just teasing you. How could a piece of sludge without even a physical form be worthy of possessing me?"

Su Xuanchen raised an eyebrow, his tone extremely arrogant.

Hearing this familiar, haughty tone, Ji Luanxi finally realized she had been tricked.

She wiped away her tears haphazardly and glared at Su Xuanchen, her small fists unceremoniously pounding on his firm chest.

"You scared me to death! Do you know how dangerous it was just now! And you still teased me on purpose!" Ji Luanxi was both angry and aggrieved.

Su Xuanchen caught her small hand and leaned close to her ear, teasing her in a low voice.

"What, so afraid of me turning into an old monster? I seem to remember that back in the Family, when a certain someone got drunk and kicked open my door in the middle of the night, insisting on crawling into my blankets, she was quite brave. Why weren't you afraid then?"

This mention of the past hit Ji Luanxi's sore spot with precision.

Her beautiful face, which was still a bit pale, instantly turned bright red at a visible speed, and even her crystal-clear earlobes were flushed.

That was the most embarrassing thing she had ever done in her life! And now it was being exposed in front of so many people!

"You! You're not allowed to say it! Shut up!"

Ji Luanxi was mortified and immediately reached out both hands to tightly cover Su Xuanchen's mouth, for fear he would say something even more embarrassing.

With his mouth covered, Su Xuanchen's eyes were full of laughter, and he deliberately made "wuwu" sounds to continue teasing her.

Ji Luanxi grew desperate, and seeing she couldn't keep him quiet, she simply opened her rosy little mouth and bit down hard on Su Xuanchen's wrist!

This bite was quite firm, using every bit of strength she had.

"Hiss!"

Although Su Xuanchen's body was so powerful that her bite didn't even break the skin, he still cooperatively drew in a breath of cold air, pretending to be in pain.

"You little brat, you actually dare to bite me? You're revolting!"

Su Xuanchen raised an eyebrow, grabbed Ji Luanxi's arm with his large hand, flipped her over, and pinned her across his lap.

Without any hesitation.

Su Xuanchen raised his broad palm and very decisively delivered a sharp smack to Ji Luanxi's perky, rounded backside!

Slap—!!!

An extremely crisp and loud slapping sound echoed through the empty, silent underground Killing Temple!

The echo lingered in the air!

The blow was quite solid. Ji Luanxi let out a cry, and her whole body instantly froze. Her cheeks were so red they looked like they might drip with blood, and she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

Standing nearby, Chang Xiyue saw this scene, and a rare blush appeared on her cool face as well. She gave Su Xuanchen a sharp, reproachful look, clearly helpless against his behavior of fooling around regardless of the occasion.

Not far away.

When the Ice Spirit Snow Ape King heard that crisp sound, its massive body gave a violent start.

It very tactfully reached out its huge claws to cover its eyes, then quickly turned around to face the wall in reflection, muttering "see no evil, see no evil" under its breath.

Gu Hongchen's ears also felt hot as she turned her head away in extreme embarrassment, pretending to study the patterns on the surrounding stone walls, not daring to take even a single glance in their direction.

The heavy atmosphere, which had been tense to the limit due to Old Ancestor Blood Saber's desperate counterattack, vanished instantly amidst the crisp slapping sound and everyone's embarrassment, completely relaxing.
