Ning Fengzhi shook his head, indicating he felt nothing special.
After listening to what Bone Douluo said, Sword Douluo nodded gravely, his face filled with a serious tone, "It's the aura of a powerful being. Judging from the distance and the intensity of the aura, the opponent's cultivation level is at least above mine."
As soon as Sword Douluo finished speaking, he felt it was not quite right and shook his head, "No... the opponent's cultivation level is far above mine."
"What? Far above Uncle Jian? How powerful is that person then?"
A shock of astonishment showed in Ning Fengzhi's eyes.
"Sect Master, there are still quite a few hidden powerhouses above Soul Land."
In contrast, Sword Douluo said with a heavy face, "Not to mention others, the powerhouses from Martial Soul Hall that my father encountered, if they are still alive, then their cultivation levels are definitely above mine. Such powerhouses can be called peerless powerhouses without exaggeration."
Ning Fengzhi nodded in understanding, "So, Uncle Jian means to say that the person is a powerhouse from Martial Soul Hall?"
Bone Douluo also asked with curiosity, "Yeah, weakling, your father must have told you the details about that powerhouse from Martial Soul Hall, right?"
Sword Douluo shook his head, "I know nothing about him except for his identity and name."
"However, I'm going to go over and take a look now..."
As he spoke, a sharp light flashed in Sword Douluo's eyes, "Such a battle between powerful beings, if I can watch it from the side, I will certainly benefit a lot. If I can exchange blows with such a powerful being, a significant breakthrough in my cultivation level is not impossible!"
"If you want to die, just say it..."
Bone Douluo said unhappily, "Sect Master, I think we should follow the weakling and see what's going on, lest the weakling gets hot-headed and recklessly challenges the opponent."
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi wasted no time in nodding firmly.
In fact, he was also very interested in seeing what a powerful being that could make Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo feel apprehensive was like.
Keep in mind, even Qin Xiao had never received such serious attention from Sword Douluo.
....
"Qin Xiao, how do you feel now?"
"Where's that arrogant momentum of yours?"
"Facing imminent death, what are your thoughts? Are you despairing?"
On the other side, Yu Yuanzhen's incarnation of the Holy Radiant Dragon showed madness in his eyes.
Qin Xiao had already been firmly suppressed by him.
At this moment, the Nine Heavens Tribulation Light protecting Qin Xiao's body seemed like a candle flame that could be extinguished at any moment.
Qin Xiao felt to Yu Yuanzhen as if he were on his last breath, about to be devoured by the Holy Radiant Dragon's maw.
"If you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?"
"Qin Xiao, you must be full of regret now, aren't you? Regretting that you should not have bullied the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan, regretting not having torn me to pieces, right?"
Seeing that Qin Xiao remained silent, Yu Yuanzhen kept on mocking him.
Of course.
This was also his tactic, by provoking Qin Xiao, he hoped to make him give up resisting and fight desperately with himself.
After all, the two had been in a deadlock for a long time.
Delay could lead to unexpected changes.
"Yu Yuanzhen, you are wrong."
"I, Qin Xiao, never regret anything I do."
"If I could do it over, I would still attack your Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan and trample you under my feet mercilessly!"
Finally, Qin Xiao gave an answer to Yu Yuanzhen.
His voice was filled with determination, preferring death over regret!
"Good! Good! Good! Irredeemable to the end."
"Then go ahead and die!"
Yu Yuanzhen let out a furious shout, the Holy Radiant Dragon burst forth with blinding golden light, illuminating the sky once again!
Qin Xiao was like a frail candle in the wind, about to be extinguished.
With a fierce look, he struggled with all his might to resist.
In his heart, there was never a word for giving up.
At this time, the outcome was no longer important to Qin Xiao.
"Buzzing..."
Suddenly, Qin Xiao felt a strange disturbance within his body.
His heart stirred, and he found that it was the small, hazy figure in his dantian shaking uncontrollably.
The buzzing sound was erupting from his body.
Without a doubt, this little figure was also Qin Xiao's Martial Soul...
"Are you very unwilling?"
Qin Xiao asked in his heart.
The small figure did not answer, but as it trembled continuously, strands of white energy began to emanate from his body.
"This is...."
"An overwhelming killing intent!"
Qin Xiao was shaken.
He instantly understood the origin of this power, at the end of Hell's Road in Slaughter City, his Martial Soul had absorbed a considerable amount of Divine Power left by the Asura God.
Now, these strands of white mist felt almost the same as the Divine Power at the end of Hell's Road in Slaughter City to Qin Xiao.
The only difference was that the killing aura released by the Martial Soul was even purer now, and gave Qin Xiao a feeling that he could control it!
"A turn of events!"
Qin Xiao was stirred with excitement.
Without a doubt, this Divine Power was the key to breaking out of his dire situation.
Without any hesitation, he started to urge this Divine Power with all his strength.
Crack!
Crack!
In the outside world, the seven-colored radiance around Qin Xiao finally shattered.
"Hahaha, good, truly excellent."
"Qin Xiao, will you not die this time?"
"No, you indeed should not die; I want you to live in humiliation, to watch helplessly as those around you die one by one."
As Yu Yuanzhen spoke, he abruptly extended his dragon claw, planning to first sever Qin Xiao's hands and feet.
But, in the next moment, he saw Qin Xiao abruptly lift his head.
And he also noticed that aside from being white, Qin Xiao's eyes had lost all other colors.
Yu Yuanzhen's movements suddenly stalled.
"Hmph, playing tricks!"
Quickly recovering his composure, Yu Yuanzhen grunted a bit irritably.
However.
Qin Xiao slowly spoke out, "It's not about pretending to be a deity, I am now a True God!"
His words were no boast.
At this moment in Qin Xiao, not just within the Dantian Qihai, but in every cell of his body, there was a proliferation of Shura Divine Power.
His body was hardly different from that of a real deity.
"Hahaha, a god, you dare to arrogantly claim to be a deity?"
Hearing Qin Xiao's words, Yu Yuanzhen couldn't help but burst into laughter, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
"I really want to see if your papier-mâché body can withstand the force of my claw!"
As soon as the voice fell, Yu Yuanzhen's dragon claw slashed down fiercely, like the sickle of the Grim Reaper.
Rip!
The very space seemed to cry out under the strain.
Qin Xiao, in contrast, ignored the attack completely, allowing it to land on his body.
Crack.
To Yu Yuanzhen's surprise, Qin Xiao's arm did not break into two as he had imagined.
Instead, it was his own sharp claw that broke...
"It broke..."
"I am now the Holy Radiant Dragon with a Demigod Body, and it actually broke?"
Yu Yuanzhen looked bewildered.
He found this completely illogical.
Little did he know.
How could he compare with Qin Xiao?
After all, Qin Xiao's entire body, every cell, was filled with Soul Power.
What about Yu Yuanzhen?
He had Divine Power within his body, but not much; releasing a skill required careful calculation.
Like a poor man scrapping by and penny-pinching every day.
Qin Xiao had no such concerns; the amount of Divine Power within his body far exceeded anyone's imagination.
"Now it's my turn to attack."
Suddenly, Qin Xiao's indifferent voice sounded in Yu Yuanzhen's ear, causing the latter to shudder.
For no apparent reason, a wave of fear arose in his heart.
"Stay calm, it's fake, all of this is fake!"
In his heart, Yu Yuanzhen kept reminding himself.
He believed Qin Xiao was bluffing.
The next moment, Qin Xiao joined his palms to form a blade and raised them high.
Whoosh!
White Divine Power began to concentrate in his hands, forming a blade at least twenty to thirty meters long.
Like a Long Knife.
Glug!
Yu Yuanzhen could no longer feign calm.
"What kind of technique is this?"
"This kid is too damn freakish!"
Yu Yuanzhen's mindset collapsed.
In that blade's edge, he sensed an alarming Slaughter Qi.
As if, should he clash with it head-on, he would inevitably end up cleaved in two.
"Slash!"
Qin Xiao's indifferent voice rang out, and he slashed down with his hand.
Yu Yuanzhen wanted to flee, but he was shocked to find that the space around him had been locked down.
"Damn!"
"What the hell kind of skill is this?"
Yu Yuanzhen was scared out of his wits, utterly powerless.
Facing such a terrifying attack, he felt nothing but a helpless despair.
Whoosh!
The next moment, blood splattered.
Yu Yuanzhen felt a chill in his arm as a dragon claw, three to five meters long, was flung into the air.
"Hiss..."
What followed was a sharp pain that made him involuntarily inhale deeply.
"Whoosh!"
Another slicing sound, and Yu Yuanzhen's right arm was severed by Qin Xiao.
Yu Yuanzhen felt darkness before his eyes, his mind void of any thoughts.
No.
To be precise.
Aside from pain, he couldn't conjure any other thoughts.
Whoosh, whoosh.
Two more strikes, and Qin Xiao had severed both of Yu Yuanzhen's legs.
Thump.
With his limbs severed, Yu Yuanzhen's Cultivation Level was simultaneously reduced.
His cultivation could be described as having plummeted, no longer able to maintain the Titled Douluo Level, as he fell from mid-air directly onto the ground.
Qin Xiao descended from the sky, stepping on Yu Yuanzhen's head.
The overpowering divine force was so profound that Yu Yuanzhen couldn't even lift his head.
All he could do was contort his immense body, trying to help himself escape from Qin Xiao's demonic foot...
"Futile,"
Qin Xiao shook his head.
With his pale pupils, he stared at Yu Yuanzhen and said indifferently, "Look at yourself now, where do you even resemble a dragon? You look more like a snake, or perhaps, a worm."
Qin Xiao wasn't wrong.
The Holy Radiant Dragon, with both its arms severed, resembled a golden snake more than it did a dragon, devoid of its former majesty and dominance.
"Who on earth are you, and how do you possess such immense divine power within you!"
"Could it be... could it be that a true deity has descended upon Soul Land...."
Fear and astonishment were still unmistakable in Yu Yuanzhen's voice.
It should be understood that his power had once stood at the pinnacle of Soul Land.
Yet Qin Xiao was still able to suppress him mercilessly, his true strength was self-evident.
"You are destined not to get an answer to that question in this lifetime,"
The moment Qin Xiao's voice fell, an edge filled with killing intent swooped across.
Yu Yuanzhen's proud head rolled to one side.
Until his death, his eyes brimmed with disbelief - Am I really dead?
But I came for revenge!
Ding ding ding ding ding...
After Yu Yuanzhen died, his dragon form could no longer maintain its previous shape and transformed back into a human body.
Qin Xiao noticed that the snow-white crown had fallen.
Besides, similar soul bone artifacts fell from parts like Yu Yuanzhen's hands, feet, and body.
"Yu Yuanzhen's surge in strength must certainly be related to these objects,"
Qin Xiao's eyes flashed, and he spotted the crux of the matter.
Just then, intense light burst forth from the snow-white crown; it drew the arms, legs, wings, and other parts together, then soared into the sky.
"Trying to escape?"
"But is there a chance?"
Qin Xiao snorted coldly.
With Qin Xiao's propensity to take advantage of situations, how could he allow these treasures to escape?
He waved his hand grandly; Shura Divine Power erupted, forming a large white net that captured the snow-white crown and many other items all at once.
Roar roar!
From within the snow-white crown, bursts of angry dragon roars emerged.
"Is there a residual soul left?"
Qin Xiao's brow lifted, and a thought moved in his heart; he gathered a vast amount of Divine Power and entered into the crown.
Indeed.
He found something.
Within the crown, Qin Xiao found a somewhat ethereal Holy Radiant Dragon, still howling at him.
It resembled the epitome of impotent rage.
"Is this the soul of the Holy Radiant Dragon?"
"That's confirmed; Yu Yuanzhen's transformation must be related to this object."
Qin Xiao instantly recognized the problem at hand.
"Given the circumstances, I can only obliterate you..."
"No, obliterating would be a waste. Er Long might evolve his Martial Soul if he got this dragon soul."
"Then I won't obliterate it; just erase the residual soul's consciousness of the Holy Radiant Dragon."
Qin Xiao thought, and once again gathered the Shura Divine Power, assaulting the remnant soul of the Holy Radiant Dragon.
No matter how it struggled, it proved futile.
What could it do?
After all, Qin Xiao was now too powerful, capable of rivaling a true god.
To put it bluntly, even if Tang Chen, Bossi, and Qiandaoliu, the three unparalleled beings, came now, they would have to kneel before Qin Xiao.
A moment later, Qin Xiao noticed that the soul within the crown no longer struggled.
Simultaneously, he also received the corresponding information.
True Dragon Nine Crowns and Snow Jade Crown...
Qin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief as if a burden had been lifted; "Whew, if not for the help of the Shura Divine Power, erasing its consciousness would have been incredibly arduous."
Saying so, he collected the Snow Jade Crown along with the other parts.
After doing all this, Qin Xiao suddenly felt a wave of dizziness and blurriness.
Within his pupils, the white Slaughter Qi rapidly receded.
He returned to his normal appearance.
But then, a sense of weakness overwhelmed him.
"Not good, the divine power is exhausted!"
"With the loss of divine power's suppression, the injuries that were forcefully repressed will now burst forth again. And then there's the Martial Soul..."
Qin Xiao's Martial Soul was now sending him a single thought.
Hungry...
In the battle against Yu Yuanzhen, the mysterious Thunder Emperor Spirit had given significant support to Qin Xiao.
By releasing the devoured Shura Divine Power, Qin Xiao briefly possessed strength that exceeded the pinnacle of Soul Land.
However, ultimately, there's a price to pay.
After slaying Yu Yuanzhen, the Thunder Emperor Spirit became like a debt collector, incessantly urging Qin Xiao to repay the consumed Divine Power with interest.
The consequence of not repaying was only one: to drain his body completely...
