Domination Domain Activated! A Soul King Obliterated with a Single Spear!

Zhu Zhuqing stood behind Yang Jian and stared blankly as those two black and one purple soul rings slowly rotated around him.

That cold face of hers could no longer maintain its usual composure, replaced instead by deep shock and... a trace of a flutter she herself had not noticed.

Beneath the moonlight, the youth stood holding a spear with three soul rings circling his body, exuding a suffocating oppression.

The five soul elders trembled before him, not daring to draw close even by a step.

Even Zhu Kai, who was a soul king, wore a grave expression at this moment, no longer daring to show the slightest contempt.

A night breeze brushed past, stirring the stray locks on Yang Jian's forehead.

His gaze was calm as water as it swept over the five cowering guards and finally landed on Zhu Kai, the corners of his mouth curving slightly into an ambiguous arc.

What?

He spoke softly, his voice not loud, yet it clearly entered everyone's ears.

Aren't you going to come at me together? Since you don't dare to move, let me do it.

The moment his voice fell, the first soul ring at Yang Jian's feet flared brightly, a rich and dazzling golden light wrapping his entire body within it. Viewed from afar, he looked startlingly like a golden-armored deity descended from the heavens.

First Soul Skill--Domination Domain!

In an instant, a majestic and vast aura swept out in all directions with Yang Jian at its center.

That aura contained an unmatched tyranny and majesty, as if within this realm of heaven and earth, he was the sovereign.

Beneath the shroud of golden light, Yang Jian only felt endless strength gushing through his limbs and bones.

This was the terrifying soul skill originating from the beast king-level soul beast, the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff--Domination Domain.

In such a state, Yang Jian's attack power and defense power doubled, all attributes increased by fifty percent, and even his sense of pain was temporarily shielded.

If the emotions in Zhu Kai's heart had only been wariness when he previously saw the two black and one purple soul rings at Yang Jian's feet, then the moment the Domination Domain activated, that wariness had completely transformed into terror.

Within his perception, the aura on Yang Jian's body surged by a huge margin in just a brief instant, the speed and magnitude of that climb being simply beyond his imagination.

He could clearly feel that Yang Jian's aura at this moment had steadily surpassed his own, a five-ring soul king.

A youth of twelve or thirteen years old actually possessed an aura exceeding a soul king?

This realization made Zhu Kai's mind buzz, leaving him unable to react for a time.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but found his throat too dry to produce a sound.

To say something untimely, right now, he truly could not win against Yang Jian in this state.

The instant this thought popped into his head, Zhu Kai felt a chill rush straight from the soles of his feet to his crown.

He was a five-ring soul king! In the Zhu Family of the Star Luo Empire, he could still be considered a person of some standing, yet facing a wet-behind-the-ears youth, he actually found himself entertaining thoughts like "I can't win"?

Yet the truth lay right before his eyes, leaving him no room for disbelief.

Zhu Kai's pupils trembled violently, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

He wanted to retreat, but his legs seemed to have taken root, refusing to take a step no matter what.

Yet Yang Jian did not give him much time to react.

The moment the Domination Domain activated, he had already raised the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Spear in his hand high.

The spear shaft shimmered with a cold metallic luster under the illumination of the moonlight, while golden light frantically gathered at the tri-pointed blade, growing ever more intense and bright as if it intended to load all the light of this world onto the edge.

Follow--

The--

Yang Jian's calm voice sounded, his tone even approaching composure.

Yet to Zhu Kai, this voice was no different from the whisper of the Grim Reaper.

The next second, the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Spear in Yang Jian's hand grew illusory, the spear shaft seeming to transform into a hazy light and shadow that was winding and unpredictable.

Immediately following, the air that was originally neither visible nor touchable transformed from formless to tangible at this moment.

With the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Spear as the center, the air began to twist and congeal, ultimately forming a formless force field akin to a quagmire that shrouded Zhu Kai and the five guards all at once.

Zhu Kai felt as though the surrounding air had been sucked dry in an instant, replaced by an oppression that was viscous to the extreme.

The feeling was like being cast into the deep sea, with formless pressure coming from all directions to squeeze his every inch of skin, every single bone, and even every cell.

The instant he was locked onto by Yang Jian's spiritual intent, the hairs all over Zhu Kai's body stood on end.

He had cultivated soul power for decades and experienced countless battles, but never once had the aura of death been so close to him.

So close that it felt as though he could touch that cold, gloomy abyss with a single reach.

The instinct for survival was thoroughly stimulated at this moment.

Zhu Kai's pupils suddenly contracted, and the five soul rings at his feet lit up in succession, flashing frantically in a hurried blur. He didn't even have time to think about which soul skill to use before his body instinctively unleashed every usable soul skill in one go.

Amplification soul skills, defense soul skills, and even attack soul skills—he used them all.

At this time, Zhu Kai was no longer capable of thought.

His mind was a complete blank, his eyes left with only that high-raised Three-Pointed Double-Edged Spear, and his heart left with only a single thought--survive! He had to survive!

Within his increasingly frenzied gaze, the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Spear in Yang Jian's hand cleaved downward.

The trajectory of that descending spear seemed to cleave the entire night sky in two.

Dazzling golden light ignited at this moment, much like a sun shooting forth from the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Spear.

The light was blinding to the extreme, as if it would incinerate everything in the world.

That "sun" rushed toward Zhu Kai at terrifying speed, passing the five guards along the way without pausing for even a fraction of a second.

The five figures turned into nothingness the moment the golden light touched them, not even managing to emit a single miserable scream.

Then, the golden light appeared before Zhu Kai.

Zhu Kai widened his eyes, his vision filled entirely with that dazzling gold.

He opened his mouth, wanting to make some sound, but could shout nothing out.

All the soul skills he released were as fragile as paper before that mass of golden light, effortlessly torn apart, devoured, and annihilated.

Without a shred of obstruction, the golden light swallowed him whole.

The next second, a deafening roar resounded.

That sound could no longer be described as a "loud noise"; it was simply like the heavens collapsing, the sound waves spreading frantically in all directions in visible ripples.

Sand and stones flew across the ground, trees were uprooted, and even the air emitted an unbearable wail under this strike.

Zhu Zhuqing widened her eyes, her vision full of dazzling gold and her ears full of explosive roars.

She instinctively raised her arms to block in front of her, yet she could still feel the oncoming wave of heat and shockwave.

The ground beneath her feet shook violently, as if the entire heaven and earth were crumbling under this single strike.
