But if that was the case, why would the Illusion God Sect martial artists fight with their lives on the line? Could it be that the Illusion God Sect martial artists were death warriors?
Lu Xuan frowned deeply, unable to figure it out no matter how he thought about it. If every Illusion God Sect martial artist fought like this, it would be much more difficult for them to deal with the Illusion God Sect. They might even lose because of this. Even if they won, the losses would far exceed their expectations.
While Lu Xuan was thinking, a few more Illusion God Sect martial artists rushed over. The strength that Lu Xuan had just displayed did not seem to be able to intimidate them. No one feared death.
Lu Xuan naturally did not fear them. With a flash, he dodged their attacks and swept his sword, instantly killing three people. Just as he was about to attack again, an idea flashed in his mind. The Smothered Sword swept out, and a martial artist groaned as he was knocked unconscious by Lu Xuan.
With a swift movement, Lu Xuan instantly rushed over and restrained him. His left hand pressed against the top of the martial artist's head, and he poured soul power into it. Soul Searching Art!
This martial artist's soul power was much stronger than the average martial artist's, and this was also the specialty of the Illusion God Sect. Although the Illusion God Sect had many schools, most of them cultivated the Illusion God Sect's Illusion God Mental Cultivation Technique, which gave rise to many different schools, such as the Illusion Sword Technique, the Soul Absorbing Saber Technique, and so on. They could be considered dual cultivators of soul and martial arts. However, the soul techniques they cultivated were all auxiliary martial skills, not a system like Lu Xuan's.
Before coming into contact with this martial artist's soul power core, Lu Xuan already understood why they fought with their lives on the line and did not fear death. It was because their souls were shrouded by a soul imprint.
A soul imprint was also a soul technique, but it was a different school of soul techniques. It was related to talismans and was similar to the Meridian Soul Suppressing Diagram that Lu Xuan knew. It was used to support the soul.
However, the Meridian Soul Suppressing Diagram was a supportive soul imprint. It was beneficial and harmless to people, but the soul imprint on this martial artist's soul was different.
Although Lu Xuan could not recognize what kind of soul imprint it was, he could analyze its structure. This was a soul imprint that stimulated the soul and overdrafted soul power, causing people to go crazy!
Lu Xuan let go of this cultivator and let him fall to the ground. His gaze swept over the countless Illusory God Sect cultivators in front of him, who had descended into madness. Suddenly, he felt a chill run down his spine. Looking at their situation, it was not difficult to deduce that all of them had been inflicted with such a soul seal.
This Soul Seal was not complicated. In fact, it was a little crude. Lu Xuan could easily decipher it. However, if there were only ten or a hundred of them, it would have been fine. However, there were tens of thousands of Illusory God Sect martial artists before him!
As for who gave them the Soul Seal, it was obvious even if one thought with their toes. Other than Saul, who else could do such a crazy thing and do such a crazy thing? Even if it was Lu Xuan, he did not have this ability.
Now, Lu Xuan was almost certain that the entire Illusion God Sect was completely under Saul's control. The negative effects of this soul imprint were lifelong. Even if they did not die in this battle, when the effects of the soul imprint wore off, their souls would be greatly injured. As long as the Illusion God Sect leader had any humanity left, he would never do such a thing. Moreover, these people were the foundation of the Illusion God Sect. Even if they won against the Jiuhua Alliance, the Illusion God Sect would lose the right to compete in the Sky Sword Continent.
Lu Xuan couldn't help but think of the information they had received from Myriad Shark Island. If the Illusion God Sect was completely under Saul's control, then what about the Octagonal Temple? If the Octagonal Temple was the same, what would happen?
For a moment, Lu Xuan's mind was in a mess. The situation seemed to be slowly moving in a direction they did not want to see the most. In the end, would it go completely out of control?
A streak of sword energy brushed past Lu Xuan's cheek. In his thoughts, Lu Xuan had forgotten that he was on the battlefield. More and more Illusion God Sect fighters rushed towards him. Beside him were his brothers from the Jiuhua Alliance, who were doing their best to defend. More and more fell, some died …
As he watched the crazed fighters, Lu Xuan's eyes flashed with pity. They were just puppets under Saul's control. Their actions were not necessarily what they wanted.
But, so what? Lu Xuan's eyes hardened. This was a war, a war between the humans and the Soul race! The slightest carelessness could lead to a situation like that of ten thousand years ago, or even worse! In this war, no one could stay out of it. People lived, people died.
Since they were under Saul's control … then only they would die. Not the brothers from the Jiuhua Alliance and Myriad Shark Island!
"Melody of Ten Thousand Swords, rise!"
A low growl erupted from Lu Xuan's throat. Suddenly, sword light filled the air!
Countless beams of light burst forth from Lu Xuan's body. It was as if he was a sword vault, filled with countless sword energies. In this moment, all of them were released!
The warriors of the Jiuhua Alliance who were fighting alongside Lu Xuan were all stunned. Even the warriors of the Illusory God Sect who were under the control of the soul seal seemed to be stunned for a moment, attracted by the dazzling scene before them.
Then, a series of loud cheers could be heard, "Young Alliance Master is mighty! The young leader is invincible! "
Lu Xuan wasn't affected by the outside world. His right foot slammed into the ground, and he roared again. "Sword Domain, rise!"
Whoosh!
Like a hurricane, endless sword energies expanded from a hundred feet around Lu Xuan. Twenty feet, fifty feet, a hundred feet, three thousand feet!
Sword energies curled around him. This was a domain of the sword, a domain that belonged to Lu Xuan!
"Kill!" With Lu Xuan's roar, sword energies crisscrossed and blood splattered everywhere. In an instant, countless Illusion God Sect fighters were beheaded, their chests pierced by swords.
Countless sword qi, under the precise guidance of Lu Xuan's soul power, shot towards the warriors of the Illusory God Sect as if they had eyes of their own. To Lu Xuan, the soul imprints that Saul planted on them were like lighthouses. Lu Xuan memorized the aura of the soul imprints. He only needed to shoot the sword qi at the warriors who had the aura of the soul imprints. There was no need to distinguish between them.
Lu Xuan's sudden display of power deeply stimulated the Jiuhua Alliance fighters. One by one, they shouted "kill!" with flushed faces, and aggressively charged towards the Illusion God Sect fighters that had escaped the net. The Jiuhua Alliance's combat divisions had been locked in a stalemate with the Illusion God Sect, but with Lu Xuan's help and their rising morale, they were able to suppress the Illusion God Sect's offensive. Not only that, the Jiuhua Alliance continued to push forward, breaking through inch by inch. Right in front of them was the headquarters of the Illusion God Sect!
But at this moment, Ye Wenjun's voice came through. His voice was solemn. "Xuan 'er, pay attention to your energy consumption. There will be a big battle soon!"
"But these Illusion God Sect fighters aren't normal. Our brothers are having a hard time resisting them!" Lu Xuan replied, distracted.
Ye Wenjun's voice was very calm. "I know. I've sensed it, but there's nothing we can do. War requires people to die. Your role isn't to kill them all, but to deal with Saul. Have you thought about it? Even if you kill them all, if you lose to Saul, then everything you do will be for naught?"
