Haotian had never seen such an invisible blade slash. However, his instincts told him that this blade was extremely terrifying and the consequences would be unimaginable if he were to be struck. Therefore, without any hesitation, Haotian chose to retreat immediately to avoid Xiao Chen's spiritual slash.
It could be said that he reacted immediately, but he was still one step too late. The invisible blade of the spiritual slash was like a maggot in one's bones. No matter how Haotian retreated, he couldn't avoid it at all.
I can't avoid it. Knowing this, Haotian made up his mind. After preparing his defense, he chose to take Xiao Chen's spiritual slash head-on.
There wasn't the slightest sound or any terrifying aura. The spiritual slash penetrated Haotian's glabella directly.
"What?" Upon feeling the spiritual slash penetrating his glabella, Haotian's expression changed drastically. At this moment, he finally understood that Xiao Chen's slash wasn't aimed at his physical body, but his soul instead.
But, was there a sword technique in this world that specifically targeted the soul? Perhaps there was, but Haotian had never seen it before.
Haotian felt a chill rising from his back. He naturally knew how important the soul was to a person. At the same time, if the soul was injured, it would definitely be harder to recover than the physical body.
He didn't expect Xiao Chen to have mastered a technique to attack the soul. Without any hesitation, Haotian mobilized the spiritual energy in his body to protect his soul. But in the face of such a defense, the spiritual slash broke through layer by layer and eventually succeeded in injuring Haotian's soul.
Haotian couldn't help but let out a blood-curdling scream as the indescribable pain assaulted his soul.
"Ah …"
The pain of the soul was completely different from physical pain. However, it was much more unbearable. Along with Haotian's scream, Mo Xie and the others who were battling Gudu Wuya's group turned around in astonishment. What's going on? Haotian was defeated?
As everyone looked over, they saw that Haotian's hair was disheveled, and his face was extremely pale. Although there were no injuries on his body, the fear in his eyes was very real.
Due to his carelessness, he was hit by Xiao Chen's Soul Slash. Hao Tian had mobilized his spiritual energy to protect his soul at the last moment. Otherwise, his situation would have been even worse.
Haotian panted heavily. At that moment, Haotian felt as if he had just taken a trip to the gates of hell. The tremor and pain that came from his soul made Haotian feel a lingering fear. At the same time, his fear of Xiao Chen had increased to a whole new level.
He was no longer as calm as before. His chest was heaving up and down as he gasped for breath. His eyes were fixed on Xiao Chen. Haotian could not figure out how Xiao Chen had the means to attack the soul. It was terrifying and impossible to guard against. Who knew when Xiao Chen would give you a soul slash?
Xiao Chen could not help but feel disappointed when he saw Haotian staring at him. The attack had only managed to wound Haotian, and it had not even managed to seriously injure him. Haotian's defense had played a key role at the last moment. Otherwise, if the attack had succeeded in seriously injuring Haotian, Xiao Chen might have been able to kill him directly.
What a pity. Xiao Chen felt helpless. One had to know that he could only use the Soul Slash three times. After three times, he would need time to recover. He had already used it once. At this moment, the Heavenly Path Sword embryo between Xiao Chen's brows had dimmed quite a bit.
Besides, after this attack, it would be even more difficult to use Soul Slash to injure Haotian because Haotian would definitely be on guard. Once he was on guard, the power of Soul Slash would be greatly reduced. After all, the most terrifying part of Soul Slash was its element of surprise.
It didn't achieve the effect that Xiao Chen expected. But even so, Haotian still broke out in cold sweat. Soul type attacks were really like nightmares. One had to be careful at all times.
He didn't dare to let his guard down. Just as Xiao Chen used Soul Slash to injure Haotian unexpectedly, Chen Ling, who was fighting fiercely with Mo Xie not far away, also burst out with the power of Sword Concept.
"Blade Intent. You actually comprehended Blade Intent …" Chen Ling had comprehended Blade Intent, and from the looks of it, he should have comprehended it long ago, earlier than Xiao Chen and Haotian.
Mo Xie didn't expect Chen Ling to have comprehended Blade Intent. As soon as Chen Ling used Blade Intent, Mo Xie immediately fell into a disadvantageous position. What a joke. Whether it was Blade Intent or Sword Intent, once comprehended, it was equivalent to a qualitative improvement. People who didn't comprehend the power of Sword Intent or Sword Intent basically had no chance of winning when facing Blade Intent or Sword Intent.
"I originally wanted to play with you, but I suddenly changed my mind. It's better to kill you right here and now." Chen Ling sneered in response to Mo Xie's shock.
Haotian and Mo Xie, the two strongest direct disciples of the Devil Saint, had fallen into a disadvantageous position. Seeing this, Haotian, who already had thoughts of retreating, didn't hesitate anymore. He immediately shouted, "Retreat!"
He didn't want to fight to the death with the geniuses of the Heavenly Chen Continent anymore. Mo Xie was already suppressed by Chen Ling. Mo Xie, who didn't comprehend the power of Sword Intent, was no match for Chen Ling. If the battle dragged on, he would very likely be seriously injured. Moreover, Haotian himself was also very afraid of Xiao Chen, especially Xiao Chen's Soul Slash. Just like Meng Yan, he swore that he didn't want to experience it a second time.
It was precisely because Haotian and Mo Xie were both at a disadvantage that Haotian chose to retreat without any hesitation.
Hearing Haotian's words, the geniuses all began to retreat. A complicated expression hung on their faces. Who would have thought that they would be the ones retreating this time? Originally, they looked down on this tiny place, but now they were actually forced to retreat. Moreover, it was the two strongest geniuses, Haotian and Mo Xie.
Following Haotian and Mo Xie's setback, the demonic cultivators began to retreat. Seeing this, Xiao Chen naturally wouldn't let them retreat so easily.
"Everyone, kill as many as you can. If there's a chance to kill the Devil Saint's direct disciples, don't hesitate even if you have to use all your trump cards. Kill them immediately."
What a joke. Both sides were mortal enemies. Now that the demonic cultivators wanted to retreat, Xiao Chen naturally wouldn't agree. Even if he had to use the trump cards given by the rulers, as long as there was a chance to kill the Devil Saint's direct disciples, it wouldn't be a loss at all.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Gudu Wuya, Long Qing, Chen Ling and the others immediately gave chase. The Devil Saint's direct disciples also retreated while fighting. At the same time, Xiao Chen once again charged towards the constantly retreating Haotian.
Seeing that the Heavenly Chen Continent's side didn't want to give up, Haotian's face darkened. This group of people actually dared to dream of killing him?
