âChu Kuangren, die!!â
With a raging cry, the Daoist Rhyme surrounding King Wuguanâs body boiled. Intermixed with the three-headed houndâs soul energy, his spiritual power surged frenziedly around him.
At this point, it was hard to tell whether he looked more like a demon or a human.
âYin Ender Finger!â He thrust out a finger and a colossal finger strength instantaneously erupted. An eerie but domineering Daoist Rhyme locked down on Chu Kuangren.
However, Chu Kuangren remained motionless with white lotuses surrounding him. The moment that finger strength landed on his white lotuses, they were immediately nullified one after another, vanishing into thin air.
The School of White Lotusâs Sage who was inside the white lotus was a little surprised.
âThis Chu Kuangren has surprisingly mastered the White Lotus Light of Purification to such a level. Iâm afraid he has already achieved the same level as the Sage Ruler back then.â
Chu Kuangrenâs knowledge regarding the White Lotus Light of Purification was already comparable to that of the White Lotus Sage Rulerâs. The only thing he lacked now was only his cultivation base.
âIs that all youâve got?â A look of disappointment gleamed across Chu Kuangrenâs eyes.
He was already strong enough to slay Honorable Supremes in the late stage of his Battle Monarch Realm. So now that he was only half a step away from the Honorable Realm, especially at his stage where it felt like he could cross over anytime he wanted to, an Honorable Supreme was really not a big deal for him anymore.
At this moment, King Wuguan had combusted the three-headed houndâs soul energy, and his combat strength had sharply increased. However, he was still unable to break through the level of an Honorable Supreme.
âWas the wound that you cut open too small that the soul energy you absorbed isnât enough?â Chu Kuangren said as he strolled towards the three-headed hound. He then got a hold of the Soul-Devouring Dagger before he forcibly shoved it deeper.
With a splattering sound, the three-headed houndâs flesh was slashed open. With the Soul-Devouring Dagger plunged deeper into the three-headed houndâs body, its wound instantaneously expanded about ten times in size.
The three-headed hound felt that his soul energy was draining much quicker now.
âScrew you!!â
The three-headed hound let out an angry growl as it stared meanly at Chu Kuangren.
Even King Wuguan and the School of White Lotusâs Sage were taken aback by this action. They stared at him inexplicably.
What the hell was he doing?
Assisting the enemy?
Meanwhile, the massive amount of soul energy that flowed into King Wuguanâs skinny body expanded him rapidly like a balloon.
King Wuguanâs facial expression changed, and he quickly activated his spiritual power to exhume this soul energy that was coursing in frenziedly. Once again, his strength escalated. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
This unprecedented amount of energy gave King Wuguan a feeling that he had never felt before. It was as though he could now control everything and anything he wanted. He could not help but let out a loud laugh.
âPower, absolute power!â
âChu Kuangren, youâre too full of yourself! Today, I shall let you pay the price!â King Wuguan declared loudly.
He thrust out a finger again, unleashing the Yin Ender Finger Sage Technique. A majestic Daoist Rhyme and spiritual power amassed, forming an almost ethereal giant black finger. Along with a dark shadow and a violent storm, the black finger was pressed towards Chu Kuangrenâs direction.
This power was extremely horrific!
Even Honorable Supremes would not be able to defend themselves in face of this attack!
âThis attack already has the combat strength of a Boundary Sage.â
The School of White Lotusâs Sage said grimly.
However, Chu Kuangren remained exceptionally calm in face of this finger attack. When that finger strength collided with the white lotuses that surrounded his body, the white lotuses were continuously shattered and crumpled. Even Chu Kuangren himself quivered back a few feet.
âHah, thatâs more like it!â
âCome, have a look at this!â
Chu Kuangren let out a faint smile before he took out the Sacred Emerald Sword Case.
He gave the sword case a gentle tap, in which four treasured swords with majestic sword qi flew out and circled around King Wuguanâs body, forming the Four Seasons Sword Formation.
âWhat is this? A sword formation?â
âPfft, you think it can trap me in my current form with just this tiny little sword formation?â
King Wuguan let out a cold sneer, then pointed out a finger.
A ferocious Daoist Rhyme was blasted on the sword formation.
The air particles around them shuddered, colliding frantically with the sword qi. Although King Wuguanâs combat strength was unparalleled at this moment, he still found it hard to crack open the sword formation.
âThis sword formation is so strong!â
King Wuguan was shocked, but he kept on throwing out finger after finger of strikes, and violent finger strength crashed continuously onto the sword formation.
The Four Seasons Sword Formation shook a little.
As such, Chu Kuangren gave the sword case a few more taps.
Another eight longswords swooped out from it.
A total of twelve treasured swords spun around in mid-air, strengthening the sword formationâs power greatly. The initially shaky sword formation was now more stabilized.
âYou can strengthen this sword formation?â
âD*mn it!â
King Wuguanâs expressions turned glum.
The School of White Lotusâs Sage exclaimed in awe, âThis Chu Kuangren really has a lot of tricks up his sleeves. I canât tell if he has more behind him.â
She had never heard anyone mention that Chu Kuangren knew sword formations.
No such saying circulated the outside world either.
Chu Kuangren activated the sword formation and trapped King Wuguan but did not kill him. Meanwhile, in this sort of situation, the three-headed houndâs soul energy was rapidly depleting.
Gradually, the three-headed hound started to drift in and out of consciousness. âDude, can you quickly kill off this guy?â
Chu Kuangren stared back at him but did not make any move.
âJesus, are you planning to take him on only when heâs done draining my soul energy dry?â the three-headed hound yelled at him with all three heads.
âWhy not?â
âYouâ¦â
Forced to the brink of insanity, a vicious glare erupted from within the three-headed houndâs eyes. âIf thatâs the case, then letâs die together!!â
The next moment, he started to combust his soul energy to increase his demonic qi!
A turbulent demonic qi boiled and frantically crashed onto the white lotuses.
âUh oh, this demonic beast plans to perish with the rest of us!â
The Schoof of White Lotusâs Sage face turned grim.
The white lotus that was formed from the condensation of countless Dao patterns started to crack under the violent collisions with the ferocious demonic qi.
Inside the sword formation, King Wuguan too had noticed something amiss with the three-headed hound. Him, who was miserable trying to desperately figure out how to break through the sword formation earlier, now laughed loudly. âChu Kuangren, seems like youâve been outplayed, huh? Iâd like to see how you can wriggle out of this!â
âInstead of worrying for us, why donât you worry about yourself?â
Chu Kuangren commanded his mind.
Inside the sword formation, the energy of four seasons interchanging had gathered, forming into a giant sword shadow with a colossal force entrapped within that smashed at King Wuguan.
âNo, no!!â
Under the sheer enormity of this force, King Wuguan had absolutely no means of resisting it.
In just one second, he exploded into a cloud of blood mist!
âIt doesnât even matter if you kill him now!â
âOnce the soul-burning technique is activated, thereâs no way to stop it. Right now, all I have in mind is to pull you both and the southern countries along with me to my grave!â
The three-headed houndâs eyes streaked red as he roared in frenzy. The terrifying demonic qi lashed at the white lotus, frightening the White Lotus Schoolâs Sage in there so much that her face turned pale.
âItâs bad. I canât suppress him any longer!â
âIf we let him escape in his current form, he wouldnât even need an hour and the entire Full Moon Kingdomâs living beings would be slaughtered by him!â
The School of White Lotusâs Sage was incredibly anxious.
âWe wonât give him that chance!â Chu Kuangren said indifferently. Suddenly, a pitch-black chain hook that emanated dark energy appeared in his hands.
It was the Soul Retriever!
âTo burn a soul energy requires the presence of a soul!â He then tossed out the Soul Retriever which pierced into the three-headed houndâs body directly.
âCome out!â
Chu Kuangren gruntled as his spiritual power swarmed into the Soul Retriever like endless torrents. The next moment, the three-headed houndâs soul was dragged out from his flesh slowly.
This soul was different from the rest that he had previously extracted. In fact, there seemed to be an invisible fire on the three-headed houndâs soul, which dissipated massive amounts of soul energy.
Chu Kuangren did not have to do anything, and before long, this soul would eventually burn itself out.
The three-headed hound could still do something if its soul was still in its flesh body because the combusted soul energy could be turned into demonic qi, rendering it the ability to unleash a terrifying force.
However, the three-headed hound could only watch as its soul energy was slowly burned, and there were no benefits he could reap.
âMy soul was dragged out of my body!!â
âWhat the hell is this thing!â
The three-headed hound stared at the chain that was hooked onto his body, and fear seeped out of all six of his eyes on all three heads.
