Jiang Ye's gaze was resolute as he fired his final arrow!
The might of the Soul-Locking Arrow was known throughout the Northwest Region. Yet few knew that the greater the power, the greater the price required to wield it.
Ordinary cultivation techniques and combat skills might merely require more time, but Jiang Ye's Soul-Locking Arrow was fundamentally different from ordinary techniques and combat skills.
The Soul-Locking Arrow's strength lay in its absolute lock-on. At the very instant it was fired, it could even shake the locked target's soul. Thus, even experts of the same level, such as Shi Jiuyue and Lu Huangtian, had no way to escape its lock.
The Soul-Locking Arrow was limited to three shots per month. Of course, only those who truly understood Jiang Ye knew this: while its first two arrows were powerful, they remained within a controllable range. Only the third arrow, which he fired regardless of the cost, was truly terrifying! It possessed a sharpness that almost ignored defenses, could shake the soul of whoever it struck, and locked onto its target with absolute certainty!
Its power was no less than that of a Heaven-rank combat skill!
But the price was that after Jiang Ye fired it, inner demons would invade his heart, each time stronger than the last. Those who wielded the Soul-Locking Arrow would almost always ultimately die with their hearts controlled by inner demons!
Jiang Ye had already fired the true Soul-Locking Arrow five times. No one knew whether he would die during the next invasion of inner demons, which was why no one dared ask him to use it.
Yet Jiang Ye had not used the third arrow to break out of the encirclement. Instead, he used it to resolve Tianlan City's crisis. This feat earned everyone's admiration.
