Soul Skill Seizure, Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, Susanoo!
A drop of water landed on Chen Yuan's hair, a leaf stuck to the back of his clothing and fell away, and dust covered his back.
His invisibility vanished.
Everyone saw it: a back and a head of hair had suddenly appeared in the empty space.
"Hahaha, Chen Yuan, you really were here." Jiang Hai laughed.
"Kill you, and I'll be the new god."
"Soul Skill! Suppression!"
A black ancient cauldron came crashing down to suppress him.
"You're courting death! He's mine!" Chen Dong immediately activated his Martial Soul, and a Shadow Thunder Owl appeared.
"Soul Skill! Thunder Flash!"
A bolt of lightning struck the ancient cauldron, sending it flying.
Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu, and Qian Renxue were traveling at top speed.
"My lord!" A messenger pointed at the sky screen's ranking and cried, "This is bad! Chen Yuan's invisibility has been exposed. I'm afraid he'll have been killed long before we get there."
"Damn it!" Qian Daoliu cursed. "A chance like this comes once in a thousand years."
He stared at Chen Yuan in the center of the battlefield. Now he could only hope that this mysterious young man would pull his weight and hold on until they arrived.
"Is there no chance left?" Bibi Dong felt helpless.
In her view, Chen Yuan was surrounded by enemies on all sides, and most of them had the support of their Martial Souls. It would be difficult for him to escape.
And they were still far too distant from the village.
A giant sword soared through the air. Ning Rongrong cried, "Elder, look! He's surrounded."
Chen Xin stood atop the Seven Kill Sword, riding it swiftly through the air. He watched the boundlessly vast sky screen, witnessing the many people around Chen Yuan fighting fiercely.
Everyone wanted to kill Chen Yuan.
But none of them wanted someone else to kill him.
As a result, whenever someone's Martial Soul attacked Chen Yuan, another person would step in to block it.
"He won't die yet."
"But it's hard to say how long he can hold out."
"Maybe by the time we get there, there won't even be a corpse left, hahaha."
Liu Erlong shouted to Yu Xiaogang, "We have to hurry!"
"Mm."
Tang San clenched both fists. "Don't you go dying so easily."
"If you're going to die, it has to be at my hands, Tang San's."
Countless hearts pounded with tension.
"Is he going to die?"
"Chen Yuan's head is mine!" Jiang Hai shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Anyone who dares stop me from becoming a god is my enemy!"
"So what if we make an enemy of you?" Seven or eight voices rang out.
At the same time, several more Soul Grandmasters flew over.
They confronted one another, and together with the villagers, there were over three hundred people present.
Chen Yuan lowered his head and clenched his fists.
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan and Impure World Reincarnation!"
His eyes instantly spun and turned crimson, the pupils shifting again to form a closed-loop, three-bladed pinwheel.
Tsukuyomi in his left eye!
Amaterasu in his right!
"He's mine!" Jiang Hai shouted.
"He's mine!" Chen Dong said angrily.
More than a dozen Soul Grandmasters shouted at once, Soul Skills flying everywhere.
"I say, you're all so noisy." Chen Yuan suddenly spoke, breaking the balance on the battlefield.
Jiang Hai, Chen Dong, and the others all looked at Chen Yuan, trapped in the middle of their encirclement.
"Amaterasu!" Chen Yuan looked at Jiang Hai, and a jet of black flame shot from his eye, quickly catching on Jiang Hai's right arm.
"Ah!!" Jiang Hai screamed. In the blink of an eye, a sea of black flames engulfed him, and he was instantly burned to a pile of white bones, black fire still burning on them.
"..." Chen Dong stepped back instinctively.
"You can use Soul Skills?"
"No, that's not right. You don't have a Martial Soul!" Chen Dong's expression shifted. He was a deacon of Spirit Hall and had tested Chen Yuan many times over the years. Surely he knew whether Chen Yuan had a Martial Soul in his body.
A person without a Martial Soul had unleashed a supernatural ability resembling a Soul Skill.
Interesting.
"If I capture you and hand you over to Spirit Hall, I'll get a great reward too."
"Thunder Flash!" The Shadow Thunder Owl Martial Soul behind him flapped its wings and unleashed a bolt of lightning.
"Everyone, attack! Kill him! Whoever kills him first becomes a god!" Someone shouted, and more than a dozen Soul Grandmasters swarmed forward.
Chen Yuan covered his eyes. "I said, you're... so noisy!"
"Rumble!!"
Behind him, purple light formed a Susanoo. Ten meters tall, the Susanoo looked down over the entire battlefield.
It blocked every one of the Soul Skills.
"What is that thing?"
"Is it his Martial Soul?" Zhang Kaifang, Wang Wu, Lin Qilin, and the others were all stunned.
"Chen the Trash has a Martial Soul?!"
"Who's calling me Chen the Trash? You're courting death!" Chen Yuan turned to look at them and chuckled.
"So it's you."
"Didn't you want to kill me and become gods? Come on!"
He challenged them.
Zhang Kaifang, Wang Wu, Lin Qilin, and the others didn't dare act rashly. The Soul Skills of more than a dozen Soul Grandmasters had just been blocked.
And they were only Soul Masters.
"If you won't attack, I will." The Susanoo behind Chen Yuan moved, and its arm, more than ten meters long, reached out and seized Zhang Kaifang and Wang Wu.
Lin Qilin screamed in fright.
"Help! Don't! Ah!" Zhang Kaifang was the first to die a miserable death.
Wang Wu begged for mercy. "Please, let me go. I didn't mean to do it before."
"Too much nonsense," Chen Yuan said quietly.
The Susanoo gently clenched its hand.
"Ah!" Wang Wu screamed as both he and his Martial Soul were crushed in two.
Chen Dong stood to one side, watching. The enormous Susanoo's stunning appearance had left even him shaken.
"A Martial Soul?"
"No."
"Then what on earth is it?"
He was certain it wasn't a Martial Soul, yet it closely resembled one.
He understood that, whatever change had occurred in Chen Yuan's body, he had suddenly gained a mysterious power, and the sky screen had also announced that he would become a god in ten days.
"Everyone! His power is changing too quickly! Attack together and kill him!"
"Whoever kills him becomes a god!" Chen Dong shouted.
After being at each other's throats from the start, everyone now took the same stance, determined to kill Chen Yuan first.
As for who would kill Chen Yuan and become a god, that would depend on each person's strength and luck.
"Fine."
"I, Wang Qi, agree."
"I agree too." In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen Soul Grandmasters had agreed.
The hundreds of other Soul Masters and the great mass of villagers also agreed to unite on the battlefield.
They would all fight Chen Yuan together.
Chen Yuan heard their voices and looked around. The Susanoo behind him changed again, growing taller and larger, and a giant sword appeared in its right hand.
The Susanoo gripped the sword and slashed at Chen Dong.
"Rumble!!"
With that slash, sword Qi pierced through a hundred meters.
"No, ah..." Chen Dong died, meeting a miserable end beneath the Susanoo. Three Soul Grandmasters and more than a dozen ordinary Soul Masters died with him.
Everyone else was frightened.
It was terrifying. The slash had carved a trench ten meters deep and a hundred meters long into the ground.
"They don't know death when they see it." Chen Yuan was very satisfied with the sense of power the Susanoo gave him.
He glanced at the densely packed Soul Masters around him, and at some Soul Grandmasters.
"If you want to die, I'll oblige you."
"Every last one of you, die."
He controlled the Susanoo, wielding its sword in a frenzied assault. Every slash claimed more than a dozen lives. Even Soul Grandmasters couldn't withstand it and were killed in a single blow.
Wang Qi's face went pale with fright. He had never seen such a terrifying way of fighting. In a short time, hundreds of people had been slaughtered and scattered.
Only a dozen or so people remained alive on the battlefield.
"Run!" Someone shouted, and the others turned and fled. Even at their peak, three hundred of them had been unable to win, and they had been slaughtered to this extent.
With only a dozen or so left, who could stand against him?
Wang Qi was running too, activating his Martial Soul to flee at great speed.
"None of you will escape today," Chen Yuan said. Behind him, the Susanoo held its sword in its right hand and leaped forward.
