Chapter 5453 of the Dragon Emperor’s Order is too naive
Their figures slowly disappeared into the horizon, leaving only the Divine Capital, now inhabited by demonic cultivators, and the fierce battle within.
Inside the palace, David drew his Dragon Slayer Sword, his sword techniques unleashed in powerful, sweeping slashes that retained the Dragon Slayer Sword’s original domineering power while blending it with the subtleties of the demonic race.
Each strike carried devastating power, yet was also unpredictable and impossible to defend against.
Not to be outdone, the Soul Eater was surrounded by countless black soul threads, seemingly alive, constantly attacking David.
Each thread possessed a powerful suction force, as if purifying David’s very being.
“Soul Eater Threads!”
A glimmer of fear flashed across David’s eyes. “I never expected you to have mastered this evil technique to this extent!”
The Soul Eater Threads were the Soul Eater’s signature skill, capable of directly attacking an enemy’s soul, possessing an extremely evil and tyrannical power.
Back in the Nine Heavens, countless cultivators had died at his hands.
“Humph, do you think you’re the only one making progress?”
The Soul Eater sneered, “Even though I’ve been trapped in this sixth heaven for so many years, I haven’t been idle!”
Countless soul-eating threads attacked David, each carrying a deadly threat.
David didn’t dare to be careless and quickly circulated the demonic energy and spiritual power in his body to form a protective shield around him.
“Dangdangdang!”
The soul-eating threads continuously hit the protective shield, producing a loud sound.
The protective shield trembled violently, and there was a danger of being penetrated at any moment.
David gritted his teeth and continuously injected the power in his body into the protective shield.
He knew that once the protective shield was penetrated, these soul-eating threads would immediately draw out his soul. At that time, not only would he die, but even the parasitized body would suffer.
“Chi Yun, you’re offering futile resistance!”
sneered the Soul Devourer. “You’re no match for me. Just surrender! I might even consider sparing a bit of your soul!”
“Surrender?”
David said disdainfully. “Do you think I, Chi Yun, am the kind of coward who seeks life and death? Even if I die, I’ll drag you down with me!”
With that, David suddenly increased his demonic energy, and his protective shield instantly solidified.
Then, drawing the Dragon Slaying Sword, he charged at the Soul Devourer. The black demonic energy on the blade surged, forming a massive black sword aura.
“You’re courting death!”
The Soul Devourer snorted coldly, forming a hand seal. Countless soul-sucking threads converged, forming a massive black ghost claw that clawed at David.
“Bang!”
The black sword energy and the ghost claw collided, producing a powerful shockwave.
The entire palace shook violently, tiles falling from the roof, and deep cracks appearing on the walls.
David took a few steps back in shock, a trail of blood leaking from the corner of his mouth.
He could feel his strength draining rapidly. After all, he was just a speck of soul, and his strength was limited. The high-intensity, prolonged battle was a heavy burden on him.
The Soul Eater wasn’t feeling well either. Although his body had hardened by nearly 80%, he hadn’t fully recovered.
Fighting against an opponent like the Scarlet Cloud Demon King was also extremely draining.
“Chiyun, do you think you can stop me like this?”
the Soul Eater sneered. “You’re too naive!”
After that, the Soul Eater suddenly opened its mouth and spat out a mouthful of black demon blood.
The demon blood transformed into a bloody mist in the air, instantly enveloping the entire palace.
Countless shrill screams rang out within the mist, as if countless wronged souls were struggling within it.
“Blood Soul Curse!”
David’s face changed, a flash of fear flashing in his eyes. “You’ve even practiced this forbidden technique!”
The Blood Soul Curse was an extremely cruel forbidden technique, requiring both a person’s blood and the spirits of many departed souls to perform.
