However, having determined the reason why his Whisper of Wind was severely disrupted, Lin Lei did not take this opportunity to break through. Instead, he savored the feeling from just now, and with a glint in his eyes, he once again swung out the Black Jade Greatsword and the Purple Blood Soft Sword.

However, compared to the last time, he also used Pulse Attack this time.

With the aid of the Earth Element, the power was not greatly diminished to begin with, and even increased considerably through the earth's conduction. The Whisper of Wind, aided by the Earth Pulse, saw its power surge once again!

The Abyssal Blade Demon, already in a dazed state due to the Whisper of Wind, were further intensified by this second blow, and their souls were also directly damaged.

The external reaction is that their skin, which used to be as bright as a metallic mirror, becomes blurry and dull.

But then, thanks to the Whisper of Wind, these wounded sword demons forgot their pain and their expressions became peaceful and serene.

And so, the souls of the sword demons fell into a cycle of peace and pain, and their physical appearance underwent quite bizarre changes.

Lin Lei himself was stunned by what he felt. The reason he added Pulse Attack to this attack was simply because he had a sudden feeling that both sound and Pulsation had the characteristic of vibration.

Who would have thought that this trial strike, meant only to test the waters, would have such a remarkable effect? Combined with the Pulse Attack, it not only brought about new variations in the Whisper of Wind, but these variations also exceeded his expectations!

Moreover, the Pulse Attack itself seems to have the characteristics of a soul attack, but he was limited by his own thinking and had never thought about it in this way before.

After carefully assessing the effects of his two attacks, Lin Lei laughed and immediately began his breakout attempt.

Two consecutive attacks caused Lin Lei's sword demons and their companions to lose contact. The other sword demons had already realized this, but they had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem.

Some of the sword demons were still trying to communicate through telepathy, but Lin Lei had already reached them. With Purple Blood in his left hand and Black Jade in his right, he ended their lives one by one with a single sword strike.

The Abyssal Blade Demon are all physically powerful; even without actively resisting, their physique alone makes it impossible for enemy attacks to quickly break through their defenses.

However, Lin Lei had already sparred extensively with the Abyssal Blade Demon and knew their weaknesses. With the Blade Demons powerless to resist, Lin Lei finished them off relatively quickly.

Especially with Lin Lei gaining a deeper understanding of the Pulse Attack method, he was incredibly quick to kill these knife demons by using the indirect attack technique.

Furthermore, if Lin Lei were willing to use the soul attack technique of Pulse Attack that he had just comprehended to launch a soul attack on the sword demons, he could kill these Abyssal Blade Demon even faster.

However, soul attacks consume one's own Spiritual Power, which is difficult to recover from. Unlike magic power and battle aura, which can be recovered quickly with the Life Source Pearl, as long as excessive energy is not consumed in a short period of time.

The way he's fighting now is consuming more fighting spirit than he can recover it.

Seeing Lin Lei escape from a desperate situation, Fengyun in the air breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart was also in his throat.

From the time he transmigrated to Coiling Dragon until now, although his existence has caused some minor conflicts between the plot and the original work.

But in any case, the overall trend is fine.

His establishment of the Light-Dark Empire and his premature destruction of the Light Church did not have a significant impact on Lin Lei's growth in strength.

But today's plot, which should have been a climax where Lin Lei comprehended the profound fusion of Speed Profound Mystery, allowing him to Dimensional Slash Lin Lei as a basic attack, turned into a breakthrough in soul attacks achieved through the combination of vocal, Profoundness of Sound Pulsation Profound Mystery, and Earth Elemental Profound Mystery.

Although it's not as explosive as the Dimensional Slash, it should be enough to help Lin Lei fight his way back to the tenth floor.

Fengyun didn't know whether this situation was good or bad, but he knew that he probably couldn't be so superstitious about the general trend remaining unchanged from the original story any longer.

Otherwise, if something goes wrong at any stage and Lin Lei fails to successfully mutate the four elements, then his future golden opportunity to transcend the universe might be gone.

As Fengyun had predicted, Lin Lei's soul attack was greatly enhanced by the combined power of wind and earth elements. As if he had unleashed God's Domain, he charged towards the teleportation portal while many of the sword demons were still underground.

Along the way, any sword demons who dared to obstruct him were all plunged into a daze by Lin Lei Whisper of Wind killing moves.

The soul is obscured, confused and ignorant, and there is no threat whatsoever!

Only the three leaders of the Blade Demons were able to quickly break free from this influence through their own strong will, but their offense and defense were also full of flaws amidst Lin Lei's continuous sword chants.

If Lin Lei hadn't been hesitant to engage in prolonged combat for safety reasons, he might have killed a leader of the Blade Demons to celebrate his breakthrough.

When Lin Lei returned to the tenth floor, Beibei and Olivia, who were standing at the entrance of the passage, immediately went to greet him.

"Boss, you finally made it out alive! I knew you'd be alright." As he spoke, he scurried over Lin Lei for any injuries.

However, this was just Beibei being too concerned. Lin Lei also possessed Life Source Pearl, and with its endless life force, the wounds Lin Lei suffered at the hands of the Abyssal Blade Demon had long since healed completely.

It was the constant Whisper of Wind that created a wide-ranging soul attack when he broke out that caused him to consume too much of his soul.

Moreover, the Life Source Pearl can only repair the body, not the soul, so Lin Lei's complexion appeared somewhat listless due to his poor spirits.

Olivia, who also stepped forward, raised her hand and cast a white beam of light over Lin Lei to accelerate his recovery. At the same time, she looked at Lin Lei's tattered clothes and laughed, "It's unbelievable that you were able to fight your way out of that situation on your own!"

"As expected of the opponent I chose!"

Feeling his mental state rapidly recovering, Lin Lei slammed his Black Jade Greatsword into the ground with a dull thud and said, "Hahaha~, I didn't expect this challenge to be so dangerous."

"However, danger and opportunity always go hand in hand. Under the pressure of life and death, I have combined all my current abilities into one, which has greatly increased the power of my Whisper of Wind, and its range of influence is dozens or even hundreds of times greater than before."

"All enemies became confused and bewildered by my move."

"It was only thanks to this move and the super-strong combat endurance given to me by the Life Source Pearl that I was able to fight my way out from the overwhelming attack of the Blade Demons and return to the tenth floor!"
