A large part of the reason why the sacrificial warriors were able to kill the Life Devouring Beasts in the large scale battles before was because the Life Devouring Beasts were just too heavily injured. Their ability to devour life force could not keep up with the rate at which it was drained away. In the end, all the life force within them was forcefully drained, and they died.
Although the Life Devouring Beasts that died like this still possessed some life force, which could be used to refine pills, its effects were naturally much worse than flesh and blood that possessed complete life force.
However, Primordial realm Life Devouring Beasts were different from Godhood Life Devouring Beasts. There were plenty of Godhood Life Devouring Beasts, so Jianchen did not care whether a Godhood Life Devouring Beast had enough life force or not. However, Jianchen treated Primordial realm Life Devouring Beasts like treasures, so he naturally wanted to preserve their life force as much as possible.
"It looks like I need to end the battle as soon as possible. Moreover, in order to prevent its life force from draining away too much, I can't let it suffer too many wounds. I need to injure it severely every time it's injured. Only then will I be able to kill it in the shortest amount of time possible," Jian Chen thought. He looked at the Primordial realm Life-Devouring Beast's tail that had regrown. He knew that if he continued to cut off its tail, claw, and limb, it would become so crippled that it would not be able to use them anymore.
The Primordial realm Life Devouring Beast's regeneration ability was just too great. It could regrow its limbs in just a few seconds, but every time it did so, it would consume its life force. This was not the result that Jianchen wanted.
"It looks like I can only use that move if I want to end the battle quickly." Jianchen dodged the ball of energy that the Primordial realm Life Devouring Beast spat out. His eyes suddenly sharpened, and a resplendent, silver-white sword Qi slowly surged out from his right hand.
The sword Qi was no longer as simple as just sword Qi. The power of ways circulated within it, gathering the power of strands of the Laws of the Sword. It was much more powerful than any of the attacks that Jianchen had launched before.
He gently swung the sword Qi in his hand forward. With that, the sword Qi in his hand vanished along with half of his arm. It was as if he had completely fused with space, becoming one with it.
In the next moment, the Primordial realm Life-Devouring Beast suddenly began to tremble violently. Its eyes were filled with pain, and it could not help but produce a heart-wrenching cry. Its colossal body fell to the ground loudly with a heavy thud, causing the ground to shake violently.
Just as it fell to the ground, a dazzling white light suddenly shone from its huge body. The white light grew stronger from its body, as if it was trying to penetrate the Life Sucking Beast's powerful body from the inside.
The Primordial realm Life-Devouring Beast constantly cried out in pain as its huge body trembled violently. Powerful life force erupted from its body, enveloping it completely. It seemed like it had suffered extremely heavy injuries.
This process only lasted for a few seconds. Finally, the dazzling white light from the Life-Devouring Beast broke out. It was like the sun at dawn, shining brightly. Every single ray of light seemed to be composed of sharp blades. Wherever the light passed by, the Primordial realm Life-Devouring Beast's tough body would be sliced apart.
Immediately, the Primordial realm Life-Devouring Beast's colossal body became riddled with holes as if it had been struck thousands of times. It was covered in wounds of various sizes. There were so many wounds that its body was on the verge of falling apart. Only a few pieces of flesh that were still connected to its body kept it from falling apart.
This move was a secret technique that Jianchen had comprehended himself, the Shadowless Lethal Sword.
The Shadowless Lethal Sword was the result of the Laws of the Sword and the Laws of Space. It could ignore distance and obstructions, directly penetrating the enemy's body and attacking them from the inside out.
The move was so powerful that Jianchen had directly killed a Ninth Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime with the Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways in the past.
Although he no longer possessed the Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways, and the power of the Shadowless Lethal Sword had weakened, it was more than enough to deal with a Third Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime.
As a result, the Primordial realm Life-Devouring Beast's life was hanging by a thread. It was basically on the brink of death.
If it were not for its tenacious vitality, any other Primordial realm expert probably would have died from such a powerful attack.
However, in the next moment, the Primordial realm Life-Devouring Beast struggled to its feet.
Its body was surrounded by a dense life force. Under the cover of this life force, the injuries on its body were rapidly recovering.
"I can't let you waste the life force like this," Jian Chen murmured. He felt a faint sense of dizziness in his head. He understood that he could not use the Shadowless Lethal Sword too frequently.
The more powerful a battle skill or secret technique was, the more energy it took to use it. Even Grand Primes would not be able to endure some peak God Tier battle skills. Since the Shadowless Lethal Sword was so powerful, the price to use it would naturally be quite high.
With a flash, Jianchen arrived before the Primordial realm Life-Devouring Beast in a single moment. Powerful sword Qi swept past its back.
The Primordial realm Life-Devouring Beast's body was already on the brink of collapse. Most of its flesh had been cut up, and it was only connected by a small amount of flesh. Now that Jianchen's attack had struck it, it was immediately cleaved in half.
Jianchen's arm shook violently, and the sword condensed from sword Qi suddenly shot out as a blur. It immediately cut the Life-Devouring Beast's colossal lower half into several hundred pieces of flesh of various sizes. Afterwards, Chaotic Force shot out from his hand and sealed up the pieces of flesh, severing the connection between them so that the life force within could not leak away. At the same time, it prevented the pieces of flesh from reassembling.
After the pieces of flesh were sealed up, the Primordial realm Life-Devouring Beast immediately lost its ability to sense the pieces of flesh. This finally made it feel a sliver of fear, as well as fury.
Suddenly, a strange fluctuation spread out. Under the threat of death, the tightly shut vertical eye at the center of its brows slowly opened.
The vertical eye did not open very quickly, but as it did, a pulse of energy that completely exceeded the Life-Devouring Beast's cultivation erupted from the eye.
It turned its head, and its third eye immediately locked onto Jianchen. A streak of dark green light shot out with unimaginable speed.
Jian Chen immediately sensed a powerful binding force in the empty space. However, the binding force was nothing to him with his current battle prowess. Only the dark green pillar of light that shot towards him had piqued his interest.
"The power of this vertical eye is already equivalent to a Fifth Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime. It's basically a heaven-defying trump card among the Primordial realm." Jianchen waved his hand and shot out a strand of sword Qi, dispersing the streak of dark green light.
With his current battle prowess, he could kill Sixth Heavenly Layer Infinite Primes even without using the Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways. Attacks from Fifth Heavenly Layer Infinite Primes were naturally unable to threaten him.
After using this trump card, the Primordial realm Life-Devouring Beast became haggard. Clearly, it had paid a great price to use this move.
Jianchen used this opportunity and immediately attacked with his full strength. A strand of white sword Qi swept past the Life-Devouring Beast's forehead, cleaving the upper half of its body into two.
The Primordial realm Life-Devouring Beast had completely lost the ability to fight back now. Even its powerful life force was useless. It was unable to heal its wounds.
This was because Jianchen's attacks were just too powerful. Every single strike was fatal. Its recovery rate was nowhere near as fast as Jianchen's destruction.
