Feeling the power of the flaming lion's attack, Lu Xuan's heart trembled. Even though he was in the sword dao field, he still felt a strong pressure. This was the suppression of a third level Demon Emperor Realm martial artist against a sixth level Origin Realm martial artist. Not only was there a difference of a few levels, but there was also an entire realm of difference.
If Lu Xuan had not successfully comprehended the Way of the Sword, he would not have been able to fight back against the Flaming Lion, who was at the third level of the Demon Emperor Realm. This was also the reason why Lei Xiuyuan, who was at the peak of the Returnance Realm, did not dare to fight against the Flaming Lion. Only Zhao Ying, with her Way of Mystical Ice, could last a while against the Flaming Lion.
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan didn't hesitate anymore. His expression suddenly turned serious. With a flash of sword light, the Smoky Dust Sword appeared in his hand again. Looking at the Smoky Dust Sword, the flaming lion's huge eyes couldn't help but tremble. Compared to Lu Xuan's sword dao field, Lu Xuan's sword skills were what it feared the most.
However, since it dared to use this powerful attack, it had already calculated that even if Lu Xuan used the same sword again, he wouldn't be able to block it and would definitely die! All humans, go to hell!
"Heaven — and — man — as one!"
Lu Xuan yelled out word by word. In the sword dao field, the power that belonged to the Righteous Sword Dao was all added to the sword in Lu Xuan's hand. He then raised the Smoky Dust Sword and slashed down without any fancy moves!
The entire An Yuan City was illuminated at this moment. The blue firelight and the white sword light respectively represented the power of the two strongest martial artists in the city. At this moment, the demonic beasts and martial artists who were fighting below couldn't help but stop and look up into the sky. This clash would determine the power of both sides. If the flaming lion won, there was no reason for the martial artists to survive. If Lu Xuan won, the countless demonic beasts in the beast tide wouldn't be able to leave alive either.
"Roar!" The Raging Inferno Lion roared into the sky, and a hint of purple appeared in the huge green fireball. Facing Lu Xuan's sword, it actually felt that it was not confident enough. It could be said that it did not hold back at all.
But after Lu Xuan swung his sword, the Dust Sword actually did not stop!
The Masked Sword quickly drew a semicircle, followed by another sword qi that was not inferior to the Unity of Man and Nature!
"Meteor Chasing the Moon!"
The Blazing Lion was shocked to see that! There was actually another sword! These two swords were so compatible that it was obvious that they came from the same sword technique. Moreover, their power was almost the same. At this moment, the white light in the sky was already faintly suppressing the blue flames.
When the martial artists saw this, their eyes lit up and their spirits were lifted. Lu Xuan could actually suppress the Flaming Wild Lion? There was no need to kill the Blazing Wild Lion. All they had to do was scare it away, and An Yuan City would be saved. They wouldn't have to worry about being killed by the Blazing Wild Lion.
But after the two swords, it was not over yet!
A boundless power suddenly emanated from Lu Xuan's body. With him as the center, it suddenly spread across the entire An Yuan City. All the cultivators felt a sudden pressure on their bodies, almost making them unable to breathe. While they were shocked, they immediately discovered that the Monstrous Beasts around them were in an even worse state. Some of the low-level Monstrous Beasts were already shivering and didn't dare to move.
Just as everyone was extremely shocked and did not know what kind of power this was, the Blazing Wild Lion suddenly cried out in surprise.
"Dragon's might! It's actually dragon's might! You're just a human, how could you possibly have dragon's might! "
However, it was too late for Lu Xuan to answer it. The two swords, Oneness of Heaven and Men and Meteor Chases the Moon, were both faster and more ferocious than the one before. The moment the Dragon's Might appeared, Meteor Chases the Moon had already blasted onto the green fireball. With a loud boom, the sword qi was annihilated, and the green fireball instantly shrank by three-quarters!
Unity of Man and Heaven followed closely behind. The sword completely broke the green fireball, and blue sparks flew everywhere. The white sword light instantly passed through it and shot directly at the Blazing Wild Lion's body.
Seeing this, the Blazing Wild Lion's heart was unprecedentedly alert. It no longer had the intention to fight, so it turned around and fled instantly!
As it fled, it could not help but curse in its heart. Humans were too cunning. They clearly had dragon's might, but they did not use it earlier. They held it in until the last moment. If they had released dragon's might earlier, how could it have fought with Lu Xuan until it was exhausted?
And this was exactly Lu Xuan's intention. If he had used dragon's might earlier, even if he could defeat the Blazing Wild Lion, it would definitely escape once the situation turned bad. Lu Xuan's intention was not to defeat it, but to kill it. Otherwise, it would definitely come out to cause trouble in the future. A third-stage Demon Emperor alone was enough to massacre an entire city. Who knew how many innocent people would die under its iron hooves.
"Awoo ~" Little Tanuki howled, and its body disappeared instantly. At that moment, the Blazing Wild Lion realized that a little fox had suddenly appeared in front of it. It was subconsciously startled, but Little Tanuki did not stop at all. Two Little Tanuki flew out, and their claws directly scratched the Blazing Wild Lion's eyes.
It was not strong enough. Even if it scratched the Blazing Wild Lion's fur, it would only cause superficial wounds. Only the eyes could cause the most damage.
"Roar!"
The Blazing Wild Lion instantly went crazy. It only saw a pair of claws sweeping past its eyes, and then it was already pitch-black in front of it. It could no longer see anything!
If it was under normal circumstances, how could it let Little Tanuki succeed so easily? However, at that moment, it had used all its strength and was almost exhausted. In addition, it was suppressed by the dragon's might and was fleeing in a panic. Little Tanuki also had the incredible ability to travel through the void. With all these factors intertwined, it was actually successfully attacked by a little fox that was not even a Demon King!
Seeing this, Lu Xuan immediately pointed his sword to the sky and shouted, "Sword Tao Domain, Ten Thousand Swords Become One, go!"
As soon as he said that, a huge Sword Tao Domain suddenly condensed. The endless sword qi in it suddenly merged into one, turning into a giant sword that was dozens of feet long. It followed the Oneness of Heaven and Man and shot out explosively.
At that moment, the Blazing Wild Lion was already blind. Feeling the power of the Oneness of Heaven and Man, it forcefully gathered all the strength in its body to take the attack head-on. However, it did not expect the sword formed by the Sword Tao Domain to attack again, and its entire body was instantly penetrated.
With a puff, a cloud of blood fell from the sky. The Blazing Wild Lion that had reached the Third Level of the Demon Emperor Realm, such a powerful existence, had completely fallen in front of everyone's eyes.
Everyone was still in shock from the previous scene. They did not expect that the strongest person who came with them was not Zhao Ying, who had already reached the Taixu Realm, but Lu Xuan! Looking at Lu Xuan who was standing in mid-air, everyone was a little dazed, especially those from the Mysterious Ice Pavilion. Who would have thought that the kid who entered the Mysterious Ice Pavilion from a Third Grade Sect back then would reach such a level in such a short period of time?
Looking at the Blazing Wild Lion's death, Lu Xuan also heaved a sigh of relief. In order to deal with this Blazing Wild Lion, he could be said to have used all his strength. Not only did he bring out the Sword Tao Domain, but he also used the Righteous Sword Tao that he had just comprehended. He had even used the first two moves of the Nine Heavenly Swords to successfully kill the Blazing Wild Lion. At that moment, he was extremely exhausted.
However, at that moment, Lu Xuan clearly saw a black pearl quietly escape from the Blazing Wild Lion's body!
If not for Lu Xuan's amazing eyesight and the fact that An Yuan City was brightly lit at that moment, he might really not have seen this scene. Although he did not know what it was, Lu Xuan immediately ordered Little Tanuki, "Little Tanuki, get that pearl back!"
Little Tanuki's eyes lit up, and she could not help but say, "It'll definitely be delicious!"
Immediately, Little Tanuki's figure instantly disappeared, and then appeared in front of the black pearl, tightly hugging it with her claws. The black pearl was still struggling to escape, but how could Little Tanuki allow it to escape? She brought it back to Lu Xuan's side.
"Xuan, hurry up and catch it! It wants to escape!" Little Tanuki hurriedly shouted, because she was surprised to find that she could not hold on to it.
Lu Xuan's heart trembled, and the power of the Divine Runes emerged. He stretched out his hand and held it tightly. Immediately, the black pearl was unable to escape.
However, at that moment, a wave of black fog instantly spread out from the black pearl. Then, the black pearl did not move at all, and it was no longer black. Instead, it was almost a transparent color.
In the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range, countless miles away from An Yuan City, a humanoid creature was sitting there. However, what was different from humans was that its body was almost in a translucent state, as if it did not have a fixed shape. It was extremely strange.
At the moment when the black fog spread out, the "person" let out a muffled groan, and said in a low voice, "Damned human, you actually made me lose a soul pearl, and you even forced me to cut off a strand of my soul."
Holding the black pearl that did not move at all, Lu Xuan's eyes were a little strange. What exactly was this thing? What was that black fog just now? Just from the aura alone, this pearl seemed to be filled with extremely strong soul power, somewhat similar to the Soul Remembrance Crystal that he had obtained in the Heavenly Emperor Palace. However, the soul power in this pearl was much stronger.
Little Tanuki looked at Lu Xuan and asked, "Xuan, can this thing be eaten?"
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "This thing is not suitable for you, but if you like it, I can let you eat the Flaming Wild Lion's Demonic Core."
"The Demonic Emperor Realm's Demonic Core?" Little Tanuki's saliva flowed down, and she quickly used her claws to wipe it clean. Without another word, she rushed toward the Flaming Wild Lion's corpse.
"Wait a moment." Lu Xuan hurriedly chased after Little Tanuki and arrived at the Flaming Wild Lion's corpse. Little Tanuki looked at Lu Xuan in surprise, not knowing what he was going to do.
Lu Xuan closed his eyes slightly, reached out a hand, and pressed it on the Flaming Wild Lion's head. Soul power seeped out of his body, and he activated the Soul Searching Technique. He wanted to learn some information about the beast tide from the Flaming Wild Lion's memory.
However, very quickly, Lu Xuan's brows furrowed, because he actually did not obtain any memory through the Soul Searching Technique!
This was not because the Soul Searching Technique had failed, nor was it because the Flaming Wild Lion had died. It had just died, and its soul power would not have dissipated so quickly. The only explanation was that the Flaming Wild Lion had no memory at all, or rather, it did not have a soul at all!
