"As expected, without Spiritual Strength as a sensing tool, I will be at a great disadvantage in battle!"
Xing Jue sized up the seniors of the Spirit Eater Clan that had already surrounded him and shook his head helplessly.
"What? Are you afraid? "
"I might as well tell you the truth. If you cannot defeat us, then there will only be one outcome for you. That is to stay here in this form forever, just like us."
"Therefore, it is useless to be afraid now. The only thing you can do is to use your full strength to fight against us."
Seeing Xing Jue helplessly shaking his head, the Soul Lightning warned him in a rather mocking tone. Although he was mocking, he had intentionally or unintentionally revealed a piece of information to Xing Jue.
If he was defeated by them, he would be killed. From this, it could be seen that the Soul Lightning did not seem to be as repulsive as it seemed on the surface. In reality, he still hoped that Xing Jue could succeed. After all, Xing Jue was the only member of the Spirit Eater Clan other than Hun Zhan.
"Ah … Senior Soul Lightning, I think you are worrying too much. I, Xing Jue, have never said that I am afraid!" Xing Jue raised his brows and faintly smiled at the Soul Lightning.
With a thought, layers of dark-red Battle Qi surged from the surface of his body. Not only was the Battle Qi filled with dense energy, it was also like flames that wrapped around Xing Jue. At this moment, Xing Jue's purplish-gold armor blossomed with resplendent purplish-gold light.
Although Xing Jue was surrounded, Xing Jue's strength was far above theirs. Even if he could not sense their whereabouts under the siege, Xing Jue was not afraid of their sneak attacks with the purplish-gold armor protecting him.
Furthermore, with Xing Jue's speed and strength, even if they had used Spiritual Strength Explosion to greatly increase their strength, Xing Jue was still confident that he could quickly finish them off.
"Alright, set up the formation!"
Seeing that Xing Jue had already made up his mind to fight to the death with them, the Soul Lightning let out a roar. Then, a black pillar of light shot out from their bodies and soared into the sky.
The black pillar of light was extremely strange. Although it was dark, it did give off a dazzling feeling. Most importantly, it was filled with dense Spiritual Energy. However, it was different from the Spiritual Energy in the past. It seemed to be able to affect the changes in this space.
At this moment, Xing Jue realized that even though they had surrounded Xing Jue, they were standing in different positions. After the black light pillars were released from their bodies, the mystery of their positions was revealed.
Hundreds of rays of light intertwined and formed a huge Soul Net, trapping Xing Jue within it.
"Sh * t, my strength …" When the huge net was formed, Xing Jue's heart tightened and his face turned slightly ugly. That was because Xing Jue was shocked to find that his strength was being greatly suppressed at this moment.
"Heh … did you feel it?"
"This is the Soul Devouring Net of my Soul Devouring Clan. It requires the Spiritual Energy of at least a hundred members of the Soul Devouring Clan to successfully form it. The effect of this Soul Devouring Net is to suppress all enemies within the net, greatly reducing their strength. However, our strength can be strengthened under the protection of this Soul Devouring Net." The Soul Lightning smiled proudly.
"Phew … there's actually such a formation. This is comparable to a Heaven Rank Martial Skill. Looks like my Soul Devouring Clan is not simple." After hearing the Soul Lightning's words, Xing Jue suddenly realized that this Soul Devouring Net actually had the same effect as a Time Space.
According to the Soul Lightning, it required at least a hundred people to form this Soul Devouring Net. In other words, more people could use this formation at the same time. Since the power of a hundred people was already so terrifying, if thousands or tens of thousands of people used this Soul Devouring Net, how terrifying would the suppression be?
Using this formation to fight against others was extremely abnormal. It was no wonder that the Soul Devouring Clan was so powerful. However, although Xing Jue was trapped in this formation and his advantage in strength was slightly lacking, Xing Jue did not panic because he still had a trump card that could break this formation.
"Xing Jue is quite capable, but his expression doesn't change in the face of this formation."
"However, I would like to see how Xing Jue will deal with the Soul Devouring Net of my Soul Devouring Clan," the Soul Goddess said indifferently as she looked at Xing Jue.
"Xing Jue, we are coming!"
Suddenly, the Soul Lightning clenched the golden hammer in his hands and smashed it towards Xing Jue and Xing Jue. Not only him, but the other experts of the Soul Devouring Clan also brandished their peculiar spirit weapons and attacked.
"Hu-Hu-Hu!"
The combined attack of a hundred Combat Emperors using their spirit weapons was no small matter. Before their attack arrived, the powerful pressure had already closed in on Xing Jue, causing Xing Jue's hair to flutter in the wind and it was extremely messy.
Even so, Xing Jue's body was still as stable as Mount Tai in mid-air. Furthermore, Xing Jue did not plan to counterattack as soon as possible. Instead, he was waiting for the best opportunity.
"Time Space!"
Suddenly, his brows furrowed tightly. The best opportunity had arrived. Xing Jue raised his right hand high and clenched it. A huge change occurred in the space. Countless rays of deep blue light surged out from the space and rapidly gathered together.
More and more blue light gathered. When everyone reacted, they realized that the space they were in had already turned into a deep blue color. What shocked them the most was that not only did the strength that the hundred Combat Emperors had increased with great difficulty dissipate, even their own strength seemed to be suppressed.
"Such a powerful martial skill. Not only can it break the Soul Devouring Net, it can even reverse the situation. This martial skill … could it be a Heaven Rank Martial Skill?"
"That's right. It is a Heaven Rank Martial Skill. Furthermore, it is the Time Space that Big Brother Hun Ming created back then. However, Big Brother Hun Ming didn't perfect this martial skill, so he didn't leave it to his clansmen. How did Xing Jue learn it?" Looking at the deep blue space that enveloped them, the Soul Goddess' face was filled with surprise. She couldn't help but knit her brows and pondered.
"What's going on? Why is it like this? Why is my strength … "The sudden change caused the hundred Combat Emperors, who were attacking Xing Jue, to be at a loss. At this moment, they didn't know what to do.
Puff puff puff puff puff!
However, a purple-gold figure swiftly flashed past them in a ghost-like manner while everyone was still in a daze. At the same time, the sound of numerous sharp blades penetrating continuously appeared. By the time everyone recovered, they were stunned to discover that dozens of members of the Soul-Devouring Clan had already turned into a wisp of soul and disappeared.
"Not good, retreat quickly!"
Hun Lei was greatly alarmed when he saw the change in front of him. He knew that the reason why everyone had turned into strands of souls and disappeared was because their physical bodies were heavily injured. Although they wouldn't truly die in this place, it would require a certain amount of time to recover their physical bodies. In such a battle, it meant that they had already lost.
"You want to leave? It's too late! "
The corner of Xing Jue's mouth rose to form a smug smile as he looked at the panicking crowd that was about to disperse. In a single breath, he had killed more than half of his clansmen. Not only did he display astonishing strength, he also displayed his terrifying speed.
At this moment, Xing Jue also discovered that his previous caution was completely unnecessary. These extraordinary Soul Devouring Clan members weren't as frightening as he had imagined them to be in a real fight. However, because he couldn't sense their aura with his Spiritual Strength, Xing Jue could only determine their true strength after a real fight.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Sensing that something was amiss, Hun Lei and the others began to retreat. They wanted to retreat, but they had already fallen into Xing Jue's attack range at such a close distance. Xing Jue's purplish-gold figure moved at an extremely fast speed. The Blades of Asura in his hand danced magnificently. In the blink of an eye, the remaining dozens of Soul Devouring Clan members were all defeated by Xing Jue. They didn't even have the chance to retaliate before turning into strands of souls and slowly dissipating.
Bang!
After killing the last two members of the Soul Devouring Clan, Xing Jue suddenly stopped moving and stood in the air. Then, with a twist of his wrist, the enormous Blades of Asura in his hand fell vertically. Following a muffled sound, the Blades of Asura were inserted into the space, standing upright beside Xing Jue.
Huff ~ ~ ~
When Xing Jue finished off a hundred outstanding experts of the Soul Devouring Clan with lightning speed, gasps continuously resounded around Xing Jue because they were stunned by the true power that Xing Jue had displayed.
Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!
At this moment, a clear clapping suddenly rang out. When Shun Sheng looked over, everyone was stunned to discover that the person clapping was the Soul Maiden. At this moment, the Soul Maiden was clapping her hands as she walked towards Execution.
"Xing Jue, you're very strong."
"To be able to use the Soul Devouring Art to such a level, I believe that even big brother Hun Ming was only at this level back then."
"It's indeed my Soul Devouring Clan's fortune to have a descendant like you." Arriving in front of Xing Jue, Hun Ji re-examined Xing Jue before her and praised him with a face full of gratification.
Because the strength that Xing Jue had displayed was absolutely worthy of her praise. Although Xing Jue had an absolute suppression in terms of strength, it should be known that Xing Jue was unable to use Soul Force earlier.
To cultivators, especially high level cultivators, Soul Force was even more important than their own eyes. That was because not only could they observe their opponent's strength, they could also accurately detect their opponent's location. Yet, Xing Jue was able to instantly kill a hundred people while being unable to use Soul Force. From this, it could be seen just how powerful his true strength was.
However, Hun Ji didn't know that if Xing Jue was truly able to use Soul Force, not to mention a mere hundred people, perhaps even she would not be a match for Xing Jue. That was because Xing Jue also grasped the Soul Armour and Soul Doppelganger, two powerful Soul martial skills.
"Lord Hun Ji, have I passed?" Xing Jue's eyes involuntarily narrowed as he asked with a smile.
"Mm, you have obtained the qualifications to enter the ancient tomb."
* hmm *
Hearing Xing Jue's question, Hun Ji smiled charmingly. Then, she slightly tilted her body. Her sleeve lightly drifted in the air, and a golden spirit formation gate appeared before Xing Jue.
