Desperate Situation!

Qian Renxue was meticulous, constantly searching for a way to break the current deadlock. A thousand thoughts raced through her mind as she simulated methods to suppress her enemies.

Unfortunately, opportunities on the battlefield are fleeting, and the time left to her was far too short.

"The two of you, even if she possesses a legendary innate domain, she is ultimately just a Spirit King with limited spirit power!"

"Let us strike with our spirit power and shatter this cage." A Spirit Emperor with a venomous gaze quickly identified a flaw in the domain.

He called upon the other two to join forces and break the domain.

"Fine, let us do as Brother Fierce Soul Emperor says. We shall strike together, capture this woman, and present her to Lord Luo Lie. That will be a monumental contribution for us!"

The three wasted no time on idle talk and combined their efforts.

A monstrous, thick surge of spirit power erupted. After all, they were three seasoned Spirit Emperors with deep foundations; their accumulated spirit power was far beyond what Qian Renxue could compare to.

Having held on for barely three minutes, the sacred and brilliant Angel Domain let out a cracking sound, teetering on the verge of collapse.

It's no use. The spirit power of three Spirit Emperors far exceeds my own. The Angel Domain cannot hold much longer. Qian Renxue gritted her teeth, her fair, exquisite face filled with unwillingness.

If only she had absorbed the Golden Flame Holy Lion spirit ring and reached the Spirit Emperor level, how could she have been pushed to such a state?

Since I cannot defend, then I shall kill! I will cut down one of them first to pave the way for the battle ahead!

Qian Renxue decisively abandoned her defensive stance, a cold, resolute light flashing in her eyes.

"Fourth Spirit Ability—Angel Judgment!"

Sun True Fire coiled around her translucent, icy skin.

Qian Renxue raised the Angel Sword high, channeling all the sacred flames within the domain, prepared to execute one of the Spirit Emperors first.

Her method was crisp and decisive, locking onto the weakest and most despicable of the three.

The True Fire surged, descending with the wrath of an angel and the power to crush all things. It judged everything, its terrifying momentum causing even the three Spirit Emperors within the domain to feel a sense of shock.

"I've been locked on! My body won't move at all! You two, save me, save me..." the green-robed Spirit Emperor cried out in sheer terror.

The remaining power of the domain suppressed him entirely, pressing down like a mountain. He had become a fish on a chopping block, waiting to be slaughtered.

This sense of helplessness filled him with dread, and he shrieked for help from the other two Spirit Emperors.

"Brother Delong, do not panic! We are coming to save you." The Fierce Soul Emperor acted immediately, sending a pagoda crashing down to block the path in front of Delong, intending to save his life.

Seeing this, the other Spirit Emperor also activated his Martial Soul Possession. His wolf claws cut through the air with lightning speed, moving through the domain like a terrifying, savage beast.

All three had been acting in unison; it would be a joke if they were to lose a Spirit Emperor while trying to capture a mere Spirit King.

Luo Lie would likely reconsider their value if that happened.

"Damn it, I can't block it!" Almost the moment he made contact with the great sword, the Fierce Soul Emperor's expression changed drastically. The brilliant blade was like divine retribution, shattering all their defenses as if they were dry twigs.

A strand of sacred power even snaked upward, burning along their spirit power and dragging them into the sword's area of attack, intent on judging them as well.

An attack of this magnitude was vaguely touching the level of a Spirit Saint; the two of them could not possibly withstand it.

The Fierce Soul Emperor and the other Spirit Emperor exchanged a glance. No words were needed; a flash of ruthlessness crossed their eyes simultaneously.

"Brother Delong, for the sake of Lord Luo Lie and the future of the continent, prove your worth!"

As soon as the words fell, the two withdrew their spirit power and retreated in a flash.

They had abandoned the man called Delong, leaving him alone to face the Angel Judgment, using him as a human shield.

"You two... bastards! Lord Luo Lie will not let you get away with this!" Delong the Spirit Emperor was terrified, doing everything in his power to resist the judgment and find a sliver of survival.

However, the might of the domain was beyond imagination. Even a Spirit Saint would be trapped for a time; how could a mere Spirit Emperor escape? He could only wait for death to arrive.

BOOM!

The heaven-clearing sword sliced through everything, descending from the void with an overbearing and scorching aura. In an instant, it shattered all defenses, and the sacred flames engulfed Delong the Spirit Emperor.

"No..."

A scream echoed from the sea of flames. It was the final sound from Delong the Spirit Emperor—shrill and tragic, filled with unwillingness and resentment, before he withered away in the blaze.

With the fall of Delong the Spirit Emperor, Qian Renxue was also pushed past her limit.

Her spirit power was nearly exhausted, and she could no longer maintain the Angel Domain. With a loud crash, it collapsed on all sides.

"Now is our chance! Brother Liu, let's strike together. Cripple this woman first, then we can hand her over to Lord Luo Lie!"

The Fierce Soul Emperor's gaze was sinister, like a bloodthirsty wolf. Every move was a killing blow, intended to permanently cripple Qian Renxue.

The other Spirit Emperor hesitated for a moment, but remembering the fallen Delong, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

His strikes were ruthless and decisive, aiming straight for Qian Renxue's vitals.

"Miss Qian Renxue, Martial Soul Hall is a holy land in the hearts of all spirit masters on this continent, and we have always respected its sense of responsibility. But why are you unwilling to make concessions for the sake of the continent and submit to Lord Luo Lie?"

"Lord Luo Lie cares for the continent and the common people. Submitting to him is your opportunity, and the blessing of the entire continent!"

The Fierce Soul Emperor spoke while attacking, trying to distract Qian Renxue with his words, his strikes becoming increasingly vicious and desperate.

BOOM!

The scarlet pagoda rose into the sky, striking across the heavens and slamming Qian Renxue back to the ground. She was wounded, and bright red blood bloomed across her crystalline skin, beautiful in a heart-wrenching way.

"For the sake of your own selfish desires, you have actually invited a vicious tiger into the continent. When the entire continent suffers this catastrophe, do you not feel even a shred of guilt?"

Blood trickled from the corner of Qian Renxue's mouth, staining her dress crimson; her graceful figure appeared as pitiable as a wilting rose.

She had exhausted every ounce of her strength, employing thunderous tactics and revealing her trump card—the Angel Domain—to slay a veteran Soul Emperor, a truly astonishing feat.

Yet, at this very moment, her actions had only struck a chord in her enemies, making them increasingly vigilant and driving their methods to become ever more frantic and violent, turning the situation dire.

Left with no choice, she attempted to use words to shake their resolve, hoping for a turning point or a slight emotional fluctuation in her foes, as this was something she excelled at.

However, to her disappointment, both Soul Emperors seemed to have had their minds clouded; no matter what she said, they remained obsessed, even fanatical, about the Starry Sky People.

"Pfft!"

The Ghost Wolf Soul Emperor prowled the battlefield, launching sneak attacks at every opportunity, leaving Qian Renxue exhausted and struggling to parry. Mentally drained, she was struck once more by a bombardment from the Blood Tower.

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, her vermilion lips instantly stained crimson. Qian Renxue's eyes dimmed; her soul power was finally depleted, and having suffered another heavy blow, she could no longer hold on.

"Brother Liu, she had already exhausted her soul power earlier, and after fighting us for so long, she can no longer hold out. Let us strike together and capture this woman!"
