705: Chapter 705 Lu Xueqi and Biyao (84)

Su Han neither dodged nor avoided, he didn't even turn his head; the starfire sword thrust back from under his arm at an incredible angle! On the blade, the Star Moon light condensed frantically, but it was not attacking Shadowless of the Netherworld's claws, but rather a certain point in the Void Realm beside him!

"Puchi!"

The sound of a sword entering flesh rang out.

Shadowless of the Netherworld's figure emerged staggeringly three zhang behind Su Han; on his left shoulder, a bloody hole was clearly visible, with pitch-black blood gurgling out. For the first time, a look of astonishment appeared on his face.

"You... how did you know my true body was there?" Shadowless of the Netherworld's raspy voice carried disbelief.

Su Han slowly turned around, the sword tip pointing diagonally at the ground, and said indifferently: "Your Netherworld Ghost Qi is indeed strange, able to divide into shadow attacks while the true body hides in another shadow to wait for an opportunity. But with every attack, the source of true Killing Intent and power is where the true body is. Your 'Shadow Kill Art' is indeed clever, but unfortunately, your Killing Intent is too heavy to escape my perception."

He cultivated the "Primordial Star Arts," and his Spiritual Sense far exceeded those of the same rank. More importantly, under the stimulation of Shadowless of the Netherworld's omnipresent Killing Intent, the demon seed dormant in his chest actually resonated slightly with it, allowing him to vaguely sense that sliver of the most condensed and coldest source of Killing Intent where Shadowless of the Netherworld's true body was! This was a blessing in disguise, but it also made alarm bells ring in his heart—the demon seed reacting to Netherworld Ghost Qi was definitely not a good thing!

Shadowless of the Netherworld fell silent. He took a deep look at Su Han; black Qi swirled around the wound on his left shoulder, quickly stopping the bleeding and healing it. However, his aura was clearly a bit weaker.

"Very well." Shadowless of the Netherworld's voice became even raspier, and the ancient well-like calm in his eyes was finally broken, replaced by a bone-chilling Killing Intent. "To be able to wound me, you have enough to be proud of. But, that is all."

As his voice fell, Shadowless of the Netherworld formed hand seals and muttered incantations.

"Netherworld Ghost Domain, open!"

"Boom—!"

Centered on Shadowless of the Netherworld, darkness as thick as ink suddenly spread out, instantly enveloping the entire arena! This darkness was no ordinary shadow, but a Domain formed by Netherworld Ghost Qi containing extreme cold, death, and corrosive power!

Within the Ghost Domain, light was swallowed, sound was isolated, and even Divine Sense was heavily suppressed and distorted. Su Han only felt his vision go dark, and his five senses were mostly stripped away in an instant; he could only rely on his Spiritual Sense and Star Moon Sword Intent to barely perceive a few feet around him.

Even more terrifyingly, within the Ghost Domain, the omnipresent Netherworld Ghost Qi frantically corroded his protective star radiance and Physical Body, and constantly struck his Sea of Consciousness, trying to pollute his Divine Soul. The demon seed in his chest, stimulated by this dense Netherworld Ghost Qi, became violently restless, and traces of cold, evil aura began to spread along his Meridians!

"I must break open this Ghost Domain!" Su Han knew things were bad. Fighting in the opponent's home field, he wouldn't last long.

He took a deep breath, ignoring the risk of the demon seed's backlash, and pushed his Primal Star Power to the limit.

"Star and Moon Shine Together, Illumination of the Great Thousand!"

Holding the starfire sword high, the starlight and moonlight on the blade brightened to the extreme at the same time, as if a star and a bright moon were truly rising on the sword! The brilliant and pure Star Moon light erupted violently in all directions with Su Han as the center!

Star Moon light, being extremely yang and pure, was exactly the nemesis of such yin and evil forces as Netherworld Ghost Qi!

"Chichichi—!"

Like cold water dripping into hot oil, wherever the Star Moon light went, the thick darkness melted like snow and quickly receded. The Ghost Domain was forcibly pushed open into a "Light Domain" several zhang in diameter.

Outside the Domain, Shadowless of the Netherworld's figure flickered in the darkness, his face even paler than before; clearly, maintaining the Ghost Domain after it was forcibly partially broken was no small burden for him. The Killing Intent in his eyes grew even stronger, and his hand seals changed again.

"Ten Thousand Ghosts Soul Devour!"

"Wuwuwu—!"

Within the Ghost Domain, the yin wind howled! Countless hideous and flickering ghost shadows emerged from the darkness, letting out shrill howls as they pounced on Su Han from all directions! These ghost shadows were not physical entities, but were formed from pure Netherworld Ghost Qi mixed with Shadowless of the Netherworld's Divine Soul power, specifically attacking the Divine Soul! Once pounced upon, the Divine Soul would be severely damaged or even directly swallowed!

Facing these overwhelming ghost shadows, Su Han's expression became solemn to the extreme. His Divine Soul was already unstable because of the demon seed, and what he feared most was this kind of method that directly attacked the Divine Soul.

"I can only go all out!"

A flash of ruthlessness crossed Su Han's eyes, and he actually stopped defending, instead pouring all his mind, will, and Primal Star Power into the starfire sword.

He recalled the life-and-death realization he had yesterday when facing the Heart-Corroding Demon Seed. He thought of the scenes of the star and moon rotating and the birth and death of the Universe. He thought of the Concept of "all things will eventually perish" contained in that strike of "Reincarnation Rebirth."

"My Sword Intent is the star and moon, it is rotation, it is life and death... and it is also Nirvana!"

"Even stars and moons have a time to fall, and even the Universe has a day of ending!"

"Then, this filthy Ghost Domain and these evil ghost shadows should also be extinguished in Reincarnation!"

An enlightenment rose in Su Han's heart.

He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there were no stars or bright moons in his eyes, only an eternal void and silence.

The starfire sword was slowly raised, and then, lightly swung forward.

There was no brilliant starlight, no cold moonlight.

Only a gray sword light, appearing like the beginning of Chaos or the end of all things, flowed out from the sword tip.

This sword light was so slow and so quiet.

But wherever it passed, the pouncing ghost shadows melted and vanished silently like snow meeting a scorching sun. The thick dark Ghost Domain, like a stain wiped away by an eraser, quickly faded and dissipated. Everywhere the sword light spread, everything returned to "nothingness."

"Is this... Nirvana Sword Intent?!" On the high platform, an Elder cried out in shock.

"It's not entirely Nirvana... it's more like the end of Reincarnation, the conclusion of everything!" Another Elder's voice trembled.

On Shadowless of the Netherworld's normally calm face, a look of horror appeared for the first time. He felt that the Netherworld Ghost Domain he had painstakingly cultivated and the ten thousand ghosts formed from his Divine Soul power were so fragile before that gray sword light, like a castle on the beach, collapsing at the first touch! Even more terrifying was that the Concept of "ending everything" contained in that sword light actually made his Divine Soul tremble, giving rise to a fear of impending doom and an inescapable fate!

"Netherworld Escape!"

At the critical moment of life and death, Shadowless of the Netherworld could no longer care about anything else; with a sharp shout, his body suddenly turned into a cloud of black smoke and shot towards the outside of the arena! He actually chose to flee directly, giving up the match!

However, that gray sword light, which seemed slow, appeared to transcend the limitations of space and time, lightly "imprinting" itself onto that escaping cloud of black smoke.

"Ah—!" (End of chapter)
