Battle with the Evil Soul Sage, the Emperor's Terrifying Suppression of Evil!

The man in black robes appeared before Ye Chen and Tang Ya, black qi constantly venting from his body while his entire outfit looked nothing like that of a good person.

Moreover, the gaze the black-qi-venting man in black robes cast toward Ye Chen was filled with dense killing intent, yet the gaze he cast toward Tang Ya carried a hint of satisfaction and longing.

This man in black robes was originally an Evil Soul Master who, while passing through Heaven Dou, inadvertently witnessed the scene of Ye Chen and Tang Ya annihilating the Iron Blood Sect.

When he saw that Tang Ya's Blue Silver Grass actually vented a trace of black qi and felt the rich devouring aura upon the Blue Silver Grass, his eyes instantly brightened and he silently marveled in his heart.

This girl ought to be the Holy Maiden of our Holy Cult!

Yet when he felt that Light Aura on Ye Chen's body which filled him with extreme disgust, he felt in his heart that this was an extremely huge hidden danger.

Especially when Ye Chen unleashed his first soul skill, Emperor's Light Slash, the killing intent in his heart could no longer be contained, and he had already sworn in his heart that he was bound to snuff out Ye Chen.

Seeing the look of longing in the man in black robes' eyes, along with the evil aura radiating from the man in black robes, Tang Ya became terrified and hid behind Ye Chen.

Ye Chen, this person looks so terrifying.

Hearing this, Ye Chen tightly grasped Tang Ya's small hand, shielding her behind himself while his gaze continuously sized up the black-qi-venting man in black robes ahead.

At the same time, Ye Chen summoned his martial soul, Emperor Aurora Sword, and used his other hand to hold the Aurora Sword, pointing it at the opposite man in black robes.

"Evil Soul Master, a rat in a gutter, and you dare to come out and run amok."

Seeing this, the opposing Evil Soul Master saw that Ye Chen was merely a Soul Elder and yet so arrogant, and instantly flew into a rage.

"Heh heh heh, brat, congratulations, you have completely angered me. Today, I want you to die!"

Having spoken, this man in black robes performed Martial Soul Possession, and his right arm abruptly enlarged threefold. Furthermore, the color of his arm intertwined black and blood-red, and the entire arm vented black smoke, looking extremely terrifying.

Stripes of soul rings rose from beneath his feet, spiraling and revolving around his body, and the soul ring colors were respectively white, yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, and black.

Seven soul rings manifested his soul power level, indicating that he was an Evil Soul Sage, a Soul Sage possessing a Martial Soul Avatar!

With seven soul rings revolving around himself, this man in black robes could hardly wait to see the look of fear on Ye Chen's face.

Yet, much to his expectation, not only was there not the slightest trace of fear on Ye Chen's face, but instead he revealed an expression of excitement—that demeanor was as though he couldn't wait to engage in a battle.

Looking at Ye Chen's expression, this Evil Soul Sage felt that he had been humiliated, and staring at Ye Chen, he roared loudly.

"Brat, I am a Soul Sage, why aren't you afraid?!"

Hearing the Evil Soul Sage's psychological defense breaking, Ye Chen said calmly.

"Not being afraid is simply not being afraid, why should I fear a rat like you who hides his head and shows his tail."

If it were an ordinary Soul Sage, Ye Chen would have said nothing further and immediately executed a strategic retreat; however, this was an Evil Soul Master, and his Emperor Aurora Sword loved nothing more than this kind of Evil Soul Master venting black smoke.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Seeing this, the black-robed Evil Soul Sage laughed out of anger, and he would definitely make Ye Chen witness just how terrifying a Soul Sage was.

Even though Ye Chen had defeated the Iron Blood Sect Master, who was a Soul Emperor, the black-robed Evil Soul Sage still hadn't placed Ye Chen in his eyes.

Between a Soul Sage and a Soul Emperor, there was a gap as vast as heaven and earth. Upon reaching the realm of Soul Sage, a soul master possessed their own Martial Soul Avatar, which not only vastly enhanced their own base attributes, but also doubled the might of their soul skills.

It was no exaggeration to say that a Soul Sage could easily rout a dozen or so Soul Emperors.

What's more, the one Ye Chen defeated was merely a Soul Emperor as ordinary as could be. Against a trashy Soul Emperor like the Iron Blood Sect Master, the black-robed Evil Soul Sage reckoned he could easily pinch a bunch to death.

Subsequently, the black-robed Soul Sage's sixth soul ring lit up, and his black-smoke-venting massive hand lifted upward as he shouted in a loud voice.

"Sixth soul skill, Ghost Hand Claims Life!"

Before his voice had even faded, a massive amount of black smoke billowed from his black hand, and within the black smoke, it was as though countless wronged spirits were wailing. Then, under his control, they launched an attack toward Ye Chen.

"Taste this move of mine—this was forged using the lives of several thousand people, you know."

Hearing what that Evil Soul Sage said, Ye Chen's golden eyes instantly revealed terrifying killing intent.

"The lives of several thousand people? Evil Soul Master, truly damn you!"

Ye Chen raised the Emperor Aurora Sword in his hand, pointed the sword toward the sun, and shouted.

"O Sun, grant me the power to eradicate evil!"

After Ye Chen finished speaking this sentence, the surrounding Light Element continuously surged toward Ye Chen's Emperor Aurora Sword. As the Power of Light continuously poured in, the golden radiance emitted by the Emperor Aurora Sword grew increasingly brilliant.

Right at the instant when that black smoke was about to draw close to Ye Chen, it was dispersed by the golden radiance emitted by Ye Chen's Emperor Aurora Sword. In less than a moment, the black smoke within dozens of meters around Ye Chen vanished without a trace.

"How is this possible? How can you possibly block my sixth soul skill just like that?!"

Seeing Ye Chen block the sixth soul skill he took pride in without breaking a sweat, that black-robed Evil Soul Sage's psychological defenses completely shattered, and he shouted in disbelief.

"Nothing is impossible; darkness will ultimately be defeated by light!"

After Ye Chen finished speaking this sentence, three golden soul rings spiraled and revolved around his body.

"First soul skill, Emperor Aurora Slash!"

Ye Chen's first golden soul ring lit up, emitting a golden radiance far more dazzling than ever before.

Against an Evil Soul Master, Ye Chen did not use his second soul skill, Emperor Thunder Shocking Slice, but instead used the first soul skill, Emperor's Light Slash.

There was no soul skill that could restrain an Evil Soul Master more than Emperor's Light Slash. Growing stronger when meeting evil, stronger the more evil the foe, and possessing no upper limit—this was his first soul skill, the true Evil Soul Master Bane!

The first soul ring lit up, and golden blade qi began to condense upon Ye Chen's Emperor Aurora Sword. The Light Aura was even so dense that it faintly suppressed the opposite Evil Soul Sage.

"Such terrifying Power of Light! No! I must use my Martial Soul Avatar, or else I will die right here!"

Detecting the suppression that Ye Chen's first soul skill exerted upon him, the black-robed Evil Soul Sage was somewhat shocked; this three-ringed light brat's suppression over Evil Soul Masters far exceeded his imagination.

At this moment, his goal was no longer to kill Ye Chen and abduct Tang Ya, but rather to ponder how he might escape from Ye Chen's hands.

A Soul Sage battling a Soul Elder, and yet actually pondering how to escape from the hands of a Soul Elder—even if spoken aloud to others, others would merely treat it as a joke; this was truly somewhat fantastical.

Thinking thusly, the black-robed Evil Soul Sage hastily summoned his Martial Soul Avatar, and instantly, a massive hand appeared above Ye Chen.

This arm was pitch-black and red throughout, venting rolling black smoke as it slapped down toward Ye Chen's direction.

"Seventh soul skill, Martial Soul Avatar!"

The black-robed Evil Soul Sage roared loudly, wishing to use this to mask the terror within his heart.

Yet sound would not grant him power, and the Emperor Aurora Slash in Ye Chen's hand had already swept forth.
