Lu Xueqi (74)

"The Myriad Souls Banner! The Profound Nether Sect actually refined such a vicious artifact!" Wang Shuren's face darkened. This banner required vast numbers of living souls for sacrificial refinement, harming the harmony of heaven.

The protective barrier swiftly dimmed, showing signs of instability.

"Now!" True Lord Chiyang rejoiced and poured all his power into a massive flaming sword, slashing fiercely at the barrier's weakest point.

Just as the barrier was about to shatter—

"Move!" Su Han barked, darting out alongside Lu Xueqi and Bi Yao.

Lu Xueqi became one with her sword, transforming into a breathtaking icy rainbow that shot straight at the Myriad Souls Banner. "Bright Moon Sword Canon—Frost Spreads Across the Sky!" Sword light rained down, and the utterly yin, freezing sword qi instantly froze the air. Even the resentful souls were frozen into icy dust. A layer of white frost covered the surface of the Black Banner, and its spiritual radiance sharply weakened.

Bi Yao formed seals with both hands, chanting under her breath as the power of her Witch Clan bloodline surged. "Hundred Gu Scripture—A Thousand Threads!" Countless spiritual gu threads, too fine to see with the naked eye, flew from her fingertips and silently wound around the Profound Nether Sect cultivators controlling the Myriad Souls Banner. The several cultivators immediately felt their spiritual power stagnate and their Divine Souls grow dazed, greatly weakening their control over the artifact.

Su Han, meanwhile, had a clear target: True Lord Chiyang! The Golden Core within him spun as spiritual power roared through his body. He threw a punch that appeared plain and unremarkable, yet contained a trace of the profound intent of the Reincarnation Rebirth Art. Wherever the fist force passed, space itself slightly twisted.

Caught off guard, True Lord Chiyang hastily raised his flaming greatsword to block.
