Chapter 1395
Regarding this scene, the Soul Heaven Emperor felt not the slightest surprise.
Because the Beheading Emperor Grand Formation consumes vast essence blood to condense into a blood blade, it is named the Beheading Emperor Ghost Blood Blade!
After the blade is successfully condensed, it requires a certain amount of cultivators' fresh blood to nourish and activate it.
Otherwise, its power cannot be brought to a satisfactory level.
At the same time, regarding the choice of cultivator used to activate the blade.
The best option is naturally a cultivator who shares the same bloodline as the activator.
Once a cultivator of the same bloodline as the activator successfully activates the blade, its power can be unleashed to over ninety-five percent.
If one can use a high-ranking close relative of the activator to activate the blade, its power can reach a perfect hundred percent!
However, because the Soul Heaven Emperor now has no living close relatives.
Thus this point is destined to remain unfulfilled.
Nevertheless, upon seeing this near-perfect Beheading Emperor Ghost Blood Blade successfully activated by himself, the Soul Heaven Emperor...
In his eyes, an uncontrollable surge of indescribable fervor welled up.
Pfft!
He gazed at that strange blood blade, then, disregarding his own consumption, mobilized his origin essence blood, and finally spat out a mouthful of pure essence blood.
Hum!
As that mass of essence blood fell onto the ten-thousand-zhang blood blade, instantly, a humming blade resonance rang out continuously from the blade.
At the same time, the old ancestor of the Spirit-Linking Sect in the distance, upon hearing the blade's hum, likewise felt a strong sense of danger welling up in his heart.
She felt that if she were truly struck by that strange blood blade, she could very well be severely wounded or even slain outright.
Thinking this, she immediately moved her mind and at once controlled the phoenix shadow in the sky to flee.
Cry!
Accompanying the blue-haired woman's movement, instantly, the vast and boundless phoenix shadow spread its wings from behind her and soared high, reaching the dark-blue heights where the atmosphere of the Qi Continent is extremely thin.
Seeing this, the Soul Heaven Emperor, whose perception was extremely keen, immediately realized.
If that phoenix shadow were to attack, the Beheading Emperor Formation, this purely offensive formation,
would probably not truly help him win this battle.
Thinking this, he made up his mind and suddenly made a fierce grasping motion with his hand.
In that instant, the towering sea of blood in the sky began to spin rapidly.
And in the frantic whirlpool of that blood sea, vast numbers of souls were flung out violently.
Then, sucked in by the Soul Heaven Emperor, they all rushed toward the underside of his massive palm.
At the same time, gazing at the countless souls crowded together like a school of sardines flying wildly toward his palm, the corner of his mouth twitched into a sinister smile.
Immediately, his expression hardened and he said in a deep voice: "Eight Wastes Demon Soul Formation, arise!"
As he spoke, his lower hand clenched tightly, quickly forming seals, then with another motion he unleashed a vast ten-thousand-zhang black pillar of light that shot straight down to the ground.
Boom!
That pillar of light moved extremely fast, striking the ground below in the blink of an eye.
However, strangely, despite its immense power, the pillar did not shatter the ground below but instead sank into it.
On the contrary, the ten-thousand-zhang light pillar, upon striking the ground, rapidly split into countless black lines.
Spreading outward in all directions like a spiderweb.
In less than a moment, beneath the blood-red circular formations on the earth, a colossal black formation suddenly took shape!
Hehe.
At the same time, seeing the black formation take shape, the Soul Heaven Emperor in the sky couldn't help but chuckle, as if victory were already in his grasp.
Next, he bit his tongue and spat out a mass of essence blood.
Whoosh!
Then, under the control of his soul power, that essence blood transformed into a crimson stream of light, which swooped down and merged into the Eight Wastes Demon Soul Formation on the ground.
At the same time, the Soul Heaven Emperor's expression grew solemn as he shouted sternly: "I sacrifice the blood and souls of all beings to summon the ancestral spirits!"
As his words fell, a vortex suddenly appeared at the center of the vast black formation below.
Immediately afterward, within that vortex on the sea of blood in the high sky, light suddenly flared brightly.
Then it abruptly ejected a "black" pillar of light formed by the crowding of vast numbers of souls, which shot straight into the vortex of the great formation below.
Hum
Accompanied by an almost endless stream of souls pouring into the formation, amidst the piercing hums, an extremely ancient aura also gradually seeped out from within that black vortex.
When the black "pillar" sprayed from the blood sea in the sky gradually ceased, the rapidly spinning black vortex below instantly burst forth with dazzling black light.
Finally, as the light faded, a phantom old man clad in a black robe materialized out of thin air in this realm.
Boom!
At the moment that illusory old man's appearance, the souls of all the Soul Clan members far and near trembled violently.
At the same time, a pressure emanating from deep within their bloodlines instantly caused those figures to involuntarily drop to their knees in reverence.
Forefather!
Upon seeing that illusory black-robed elder in the sky, the many powerful Soul Clan members far away were all uncontrollably moved to tears.
Even though individuals as mighty as Soul Sheng Tian and Soul Yao, now three-star Dou Saints, upon seeing that illusory figure, their aged faces still showed fervent worship.
Faced with this founder of the Soul Clan, under the stirring of their bloodline,
in their hearts, that figure in the sky was like a deity, inviolable!
Eh, I never thought the Soul Heaven Emperor would actually bring his own clan's protective grand formation to the Zhongzhou Continent—this vigilance is truly impressive. If the original story didn't have the legacy of the ancient emperor Tuoshe, plus Xiao Yan sacrificing his Dou Emperor body, I'm afraid they would have truly taken the Soul Clan's strength to a new height.
Sensing the phantom black-robed old man that appeared on the Zhongzhou Continent, Lin Feng instinctively stroked his chin, feeling astonished at how thorough the Soul Heaven Emperor's preparations were.
After all, with this mindset, he had already won half before facing the enemy.
Even the possibility of others advancing to Dou Emperor was anticipated and prepared for by the opponent.
If it weren't for suffering a loss from the inheritance, then in the original work.
Even if Xiao Yan also advanced to Dou Emperor, in the end he could only die resentfully at the hands of the Soul Heaven Emperor!
「This is... It seems to be a strand of divine soul left by a certain ancestor of the opponent, used to protect his descendants. This guy really prepared every means. 」
At the same time, the elder of the Spiritual Communication Sect outside gazed at the sudden apparition of the black-robed old man in the sky, instantly clutching their jade hand, feeling vexed in their heart.
Before this, even if beaten to death, she would not have imagined it.
This native Dou Emperor before them, worried about the enemy's appearance, actually made so many preparations!
Each time, when she thought victory was in her grasp, the opponent could always produce another means to deal with her.
After several times like this, the blue-haired woman felt she was about to be angered into getting her period.
Within the great formation, the old man clad in black wide robes, with his extremely ancient gaze, slowly swept over the area below.
Finally, muttering to himself, he whispered: 'Soul clan. I didn't expect another Dou Emperor to appear!'
Because the Soul clan is older than the Medicine clan, the ravages of time have left the Soul Emperor's remnant with scarcely any memory.
However, he still retains memory of the race he himself created.
Especially when he discovered that the massive blood-colored giant opposite behind was flowing with the bloodline of the race he created, he couldn't help feeling surprised and relieved.
However, soon after sensing something, he immediately turned back and gazed toward the distant sky.
Upon sensing that the extremely beautiful blue-haired woman opposite was also a Dou Emperor powerhouse, he immediately seemed to understand something.
Next, he sighed: 'Two Dou Emperors contending; it seems the Soul clan has run into trouble.'
As he spoke, the black-clad old man raised his head and gazed at the enormous blood-colored formation in the sky, as well as the strange blood blade whose entire body exuded thick killing intent.
「The Slaying Emperor Formation Ghost Blood Blade. It seems correct. 」
Although his memory is scarce, the Soul Emperor's remnant soul remains very familiar with his own prized ultimate technique.
Therefore, with just a glance, he recognized the combat technique currently being displayed by the Soul Heaven Emperor.
「Junior Soul Heaven Emperor, having just entered the Dou Emperor realm, now encountering a strong enemy, I earnestly beseech my ancestor to lend me aid! 」
At that moment, the giant in the sky moved, immediately dropping to one knee and clasping hands in salute.
Although he himself had advanced to Dou Emperor, after all the former was his ancestor and the starting point of all his present achievements.
Thus, facing the black-robed old man, he naturally would be much more respectful.
「Phoenix Falls Heaven! 」
While the old man had not yet replied, the somewhat flustered elder of the Spiritual Communication Sect in the distance suddenly furrowed their brow, swiftly extended their jade hand to point forward, and coldly shouted with a solemn expression.
「Cry! 」
At the instant the former's voice sounded, the enormous blue phoenix shadow in the high heavens flashed its deep-blue eyes with a sudden gleam, then let out a resonant cry toward the sky.
Immediately, the phoenix shadow fiercely beat its wings, swooping diagonally downward toward the Soul Heaven Emperor ahead and below.
Moreover, its colossal body spanning hundreds of thousands of feet, combined with the innate speed prowess of the phoenix kind,
the speed of the phoenix shadow's diagonal sweep across the sky also became ever faster.
Eventually, even the Soul Heaven Emperor at the Dou Emperor level found it difficult to perceive the existence of that phoenix shadow!
Ah, I will use the billions of soul power you convey to help you block this strike. As for the rest, you can only rely on yourself.
Just as the phoenix shadow on the sky plummeted rapidly, the black-robed old man let out a helpless sigh.
「Hum! 」
Immediately, his figure burst forth with a jet-black ink radiance.
At the same time, the black great formation beneath him likewise did so.
「Boom! 」
Soon, the old man together with the great formation beneath him suddenly emitted a muffled sound from his body's surface, after which black flames rose up.
Next, the old man's illusory large hand waved, instantly rolling up the vast Eight Desolations Demon Soul Formation below.
「Whoosh! 」
Thereafter, he and the formation instantly merged, transforming into a black streak of light that shot rapidly toward the phoenix shadow in the sky.
「Old geezer, go die for this Emperor! 」
Meanwhile, as the Soul Emperor's remnant soul acted, the Soul Heaven Emperor let out an explosive shout.
He then moved his two fingers, controlling the dreadful killing intent-filled Slaying Emperor Ghost Blood Blade, which turned into a blood-colored light shooting forth, aimed directly at the distant elder of the Spiritual Communication Sect!
「There's no way; it seems I can only sacrifice you. 」
Gazing at the swiftly approaching ten-thousand-foot blood blade, the blue-haired woman couldn't help but let out a wry laugh.
Immediately, following a thought of hers, a huge demon beast phantom leapt forth from behind her.
Upon careful observation, one would see that the phantom was precisely the three-headed celestial wolf beast soul that had disappeared for a long time.
「Ah-woo! 」
The next moment, the three heads of the beast soul each opened their blood-basin mouths wide, howling as each spewed forth a massive light pillar of a different color.
「Boom! 」
「Boom! 」
「Boom! 」
The next moment, the three energy pillars, each several thousand zhang in diameter, violently struck the incoming massive blood blade, subsequently erupting in a heaven-shaking roar that trembled the entire world.
At the same time, blue ice was rapidly condensing upon the ten-thousand-foot blood blade.
However, just as the wolf soul thought its attack could withstand the opponent's assault.
Only to see the blood blade suddenly shudder and immediately burst forth with a blinding blood-colored light.
Bang!
In an instant, the thick blue ice on the blade was instantly shaken into countless powder.
Finally, the residual energy surged toward the sky in all directions.
Whoosh!
At the same time, the Emperor‑Slaying Ghost Blood Blade, carrying Hun Tiandi's expectation, continued to shoot forward, directly striking the three-headed wolf soul ahead.
Immediately after, the blood blade tore through the void, making direct intimate contact with the soul beast.
However, the next moment, bloody light flickered on the myriad‑foot huge blade, and the three heads of the wolf soul instantly flew off.
Before the Emperor‑Slaying Ghost Blood Blade, which had absorbed countless souls, the three‑headed heavenly wolf beast soul that had previously been able to trade blows with Hun Tiandi instantly lost its defenses and was outright decapitated.
At the same time, its tens of thousands of feet massive body swiftly began to dim.
Finally, the beast soul's body of the three‑headed heavenly wolf turned into countless points of light that rose upward.
Then, it was completely absorbed by the myriad‑foot blood blade.
As for the Emperor‑Slaying Ghost Blood Blade, after absorbing the three‑headed heavenly wolf's body, the rich murderous aura on it instantly became even darker.
At the same time, the bloody light bursting on the blade also instantly grew a bit more intense.
This change was quite obvious.
The Emperor‑Slaying Ghost Blood Blade, after absorbing a beast soul comparable to a Dou Emperor‑level expert.
Its attack power increased yet again to a higher level.
Boom!
Meanwhile, as the Emperor‑Slaying Ghost Blood Blade slew the three‑headed heavenly wolf beast soul, a tremendous explosion burst forth in the distant high sky, the most violent sound of the battle between the two.
Rumble—
The next moment, amid the terrifying energy storm that shocked the world, a storm like a muffled thunder instantly swept across the entire Zhongzhou Continent.
Crack.
In that instant, the space within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles was completely annihilated!
At the same time, countless members of the Soul Clan.
In that moment, they felt that something deep within their souls seemed to be fading away.
