Dark red Honkai Energy surged into Feng Chen's consciousness, gradually eroding the consciousness of the Xuanyuan Sword that had trapped him.
Feng Chen's Destruction countered most of the thirteen Herrschers, and its effect was especially obvious against Domination.
The Xuanyuan Sword could not control Feng Chen's consciousness, and the power of Destruction was largely responsible for that.
A Herrscher's Honkai Energy possessed a self-protective function. When a Herrscher was threatened, the Honkai Energy would completely unleash the Herrscher's power.
The Xuanyuan Sword had only brushed against Feng Chen's Destruction, yet it no longer dared to act recklessly.
A small hole appeared in the layer of consciousness that the Xuanyuan Sword had wrapped around Feng Chen's consciousness.
The golden-yellow blade suddenly dimmed considerably. Bella and Higanbana could tell that this method was working.
"Little Fox, how are your injuries?"
Higanbana struggled to climb off "Feng Chen." The blade was still embedded in her abdomen. The power of Domination allowed her to feel somewhat, as though her body no longer belonged to her.
"Damn it... So this is what my master felt?"
Higanbana's injuries were not serious. As a Herrscher, she could handle wounds of this level.
"I'm fine. I've already let Honkai Energy erode the Xuanyuan Sword's consciousness of Domination, and I think I also sensed..."
What she sensed was the same thing Bella saw.
"Master—the King—is using Jizou Mitama to erode the consciousness of Domination."
They reached the same conclusion almost simultaneously.
The answer was obvious. When Higanbana began eroding the consciousness of Domination, Jizou Mitama had already started releasing Erosion Honkai Energy.
Higanbana pulled the Xuanyuan Sword from her body, then knelt on the ground and, enduring the pain, placed Feng Chen's head on her lap.
Bella wore an expression that seemed to say, "What's wrong with you, sis?"
