61: In recognition of your contribution, I will let you be the main soul of this Ten Thousand Souls Banner!

Finally, under Nine Nether's extremely terrified gaze, Xuan Tianchen's blood-red eyes gleamed with cold light, followed by a surge of chilling killing intent.

He directly waved his large hand and firmly grasped the head of Nine Nether's heavenly demon dharma idol.

His palm gripped like an iron clamp, making it impossible for Nine Nether to move or break free.

Immediately after, Xuan Tianchen's other large hand, imbued with the power of the Chaos Demon God, swirled and spread like mist.

Then, this hand violently tugged.

It was as if he was trying to pull something out of Nine Nether's body.

With this pull, Nine Nether's heavenly demon dharma idol immediately showed a look of pain.

His expression was severely contorted, clearly enduring immense suffering at this moment.

In just a moment, Xuan Tianchen extracted a ray of light from within Nine Nether's heavenly demon dharma idol.

Within this ray of light, a transparent figure was faintly visible; it was precisely Nine Nether's Immortal Emperor soul.

Sensing Xuan Tianchen's intention, Nine Nether's Immortal Emperor soul showed a look of horror, struggling desperately to escape.

However, under the restraint of Xuan Tianchen's Chaos Demon God power, his soul was utterly unable to move an inch.

It was as if countless ropes bound him tightly, preventing him from escaping.

Not only that.

As black divine lightning surged in Xuan Tianchen's palm, Nine Nether's Immortal Emperor soul immediately let out a pained shriek.

"Ah! Don't kill me, I am willing to be loyal to you for all eternity!"

At this moment, Nine Nether was still desperately begging for mercy, hoping Xuan Tianchen would spare his dog life.

After all, if his soul were to be confined in the ten thousand souls banner before him, he wouldn't even have a chance at reincarnation.

"Oh, are you truly willing to be loyal to this Venerable One for all eternity?"

Xuan Tianchen looked at the Immortal Emperor soul in his palm, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, his eyes gleaming with a hint of playfulness.

"I am willing, I will do whatever you ask me to do!"

At this moment, Nine Nether was utterly aggrieved and miserable.

To think that once, he was an unrivaled supreme expert of the Heavenly Demon Clan, dominating the Foreign Domain Forbidden Zone.

Yet now, he could only wag his tail and beg for mercy like a stray dog, pleading for his opponent to let him off.

If this were to spread, it would likely become the laughingstock of the entire Foreign Domain Forbidden Zone.

But there was no other way; it was his bad luck to encounter such a powerful opponent as Xuan Tianchen.

As long as he could survive, everything was worth it.

After all, even ants cling to life, let alone him, the former ancestor of the Heavenly Demon Clan.

"Very well, in that case, offer up your Immortal Emperor Origin." Xuan Tianchen said indifferently.

"Immortal Emperor Origin..."

Upon hearing this, Nine Nether's Immortal Emperor soul immediately changed expression, lamenting inwardly.

One must know that the Immortal Emperor Origin was the foundation of his entire heavenly demon cultivation!

If he offered it up, he would never have the chance to return to his peak again.

But with things having come to this, Nine Nether had no other choice.

"Alright, I'll offer it!"

Finally, Nine Nether gritted his teeth, deciding to abandon his Immortal Emperor Origin.

As his Immortal Emperor soul's will stirred, a golden light emerged from his body, containing endless profound aura.

This was his Immortal Emperor Origin, the essence of his cultivation over countless years.

Seeing this, Xuan Tianchen couldn't help but show a look of joy.

Immediately after, Xuan Tianchen's chaos demon god dharma idol opened its large mouth and directly swallowed Nine Nether's Immortal Emperor Origin.

"Immortal Emperor Origin is indeed delicious!"

Sensing the power brought by Nine Nether's Immortal Emperor Origin, Xuan Tianchen couldn't help but show a look of enjoyment.

"My Lord, I have given you my Immortal Emperor Origin; I hope you will not kill me."

"Naturally..." Xuan Tianchen nodded contentedly.

However... before Nine Nether could even breathe a sigh of relief, Xuan Tianchen suddenly opened the ten thousand souls banner.

"Considering your meritorious service in offering your Immortal Emperor Origin, you shall be the main soul within this ten thousand souls banner!"

"What! You can't do this, you can't go back on your word and be untrustworthy!"

Sensing the eerie black qi surging from the ten thousand souls banner, Nine Nether's Immortal Emperor soul couldn't help but shiver.

"Trustworthy? Then why would this Venerable One cultivate? Get in there!"

Xuan Tianchen sneered, then waved his large hand, directly throwing Nine Nether's Great Emperor soul into the ten thousand souls banner.

And Nine Nether's soul, as expected of an Immortal Emperor grade, was still struggling frantically even after being taken into the ten thousand souls banner.

He gripped the outside of the ten thousand souls banner tightly with both hands, preventing himself from being completely devoured by the power within the banner.

"Hmph, a dying struggle! Soul-binding command, retrieve!"

As Xuan Tianchen's will moved, the ten thousand souls banner suddenly erupted in turmoil.

Overwhelmingly dense black qi surged wildly, and two massive black chains shot out from the banner.

Then they fiercely locked around the neck of Nine Nether's Demon Emperor soul!

At the same time, numerous dark and eerie giant hands also appeared on the banner's surface, frantically pulling Nine Nether's Immortal Emperor soul inward.

It was as if they were saying: "A VIP main soul position has been prepared for you, fellow daoist, why the delay? Come quickly into this banner!"

In just a moment, Nine Nether's Immortal Emperor soul was completely swallowed by the ten thousand souls banner.

As Nine Nether's Immortal Emperor soul was absorbed into the ten thousand souls banner, the entire ten thousand souls banner immediately erupted with an extremely terrifying aura.

In an instant, that eerie power, turning from righteous to evil, from purple to black, surged violently.

It swept across the entire void like a raging hurricane!

Wherever that power passed, the already shattered void battlefield was twisted beyond recognition.

At the same time, countless shrill wails and howls of ghosts emanated from the banner.

The sound was sharp and piercing, making one's hair stand on end, as if it came from the cries of hell.

And in the position of the main soul within the ten thousand souls banner, Nine Nether's Immortal Emperor soul had been devoured by the dense black qi, becoming an eerie soul body without subjective consciousness.

Terrifying black power swirled around him; he had completely lost himself, obeying only Xuan Tianchen's command!

Thus, this battle of absolute crushing power finally drew to a close.

"This heavenly demon dharma idol corpse is also a good thing; it can't be wasted like this!"

Xuan Tianchen's mouth curved slightly upward, a hint of greed and ruthlessness in his smile.

At the same time, a chilling glint flickered in his eyes, causing a sense of dread.

Immediately after, a terrifying power of chaos suddenly circulated in the palm of his chaos demon god dharma idol.

That power of chaos spun like a vortex, emanating a heart-palpitating pressure.

"Nine Clans Seal: Nine Clans peeling (separation), bloodline sacrifice to me!" Xuan Tianchen's chaos demon god dharma idol chanted.

His voice was deep and mysterious, like an ancient curse.

As soon as he finished speaking, he directly slammed down with a palm.

That palm struck like thunder, carrying an unstoppable momentum.

In an instant, a dazzling and eerie blood-red mark suddenly shot out from the palm of the chaos demon god dharma idol.

The mark's light was brilliant, like a burning meteor, rushing straight towards the corpse of the heavenly demon dharma idol.

And this was the true face of the Bloodline Soul-Guiding Art — the Nine Clans Seal.

Once the Nine Clans Seal was unleashed, all those connected by bloodline,

No matter how far apart, no matter where they were,

Would suffer the calamity of complete clan separation, exploding and dying, their spirits and forms utterly destroyed.

It was an inescapable curse, a terrifying power that annihilated everything.

And all the bloodline power of those who perished,

Would automatically be sacrificed to the caster, becoming a part of his power, making him even stronger.

Fortunately, at this moment, Nine Nether had completely become a main soul of the ten thousand souls banner with no self-awareness.

Otherwise, if he were to witness Xuan Tianchen not only desecrating his corpse but also wiping out his entire clan in the process,

He would probably be so enraged that he would explode on the spot!
