Chapter 936: Soul Technique Blocks the Enemy

Boom—!

In the next moment, their techniques violently collided in midair.

The resulting battle qi shockwave instantly shattered the surrounding space, forming a pitch-black void tens of li wide in midair.

And this black void hung in the sky like a pitch-black round sun.

However, this 'sun' does not emit warm sunlight; instead, it continuously blows out the residual wind of a howling space storm.

Meanwhile, as Yao Chen and the Dan Family Patriarch exchanged blows, with each clash of combat techniques, waves of formidable pressure instantly spread rapidly in all directions.

This caused the surrounding Battle Venerable cultivators' movements to involuntarily stagnate.

Faced with this situation, the Battle Venerables from both sides who were somewhat closer all simultaneously ceased fighting and flew away at full speed to a greater distance.

After all, if they continued to stay here, who knows what might happen later.

Only after those Battle Venerable cultivators hastily retreated more than ten li did they finally steady their forms, staring blankly at the pitch-black great hole in the sky, as well as the Dan Family Patriarch and Yao Chen who were still exchanging blows.

"How terrifying this battle qi is—is this the might of a half-saint powerhouse?"

Gazing at the hollow in the distant sky, some Battle Venerables couldn't help but murmur softly.

Whoosh!

Just as everyone stared blankly at the sky, Cao Ying, flying at full speed, finally brought Xin Lan out of the encirclement of the Battle Venerables and reached the distant sky.

As the two women in front flew out, Dan Chen, who closely followed them, likewise reached the edge of the crowd, about to successfully break free.

"Hehe, little girl, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Why not come with me to the Heaven Net Sect? Then I'll let you be a bride every night, enjoying endless pleasure each day."

Seeing Dan Chen about to break free, the vice sect master of the Heaven Net Sect, Liu Cang, somehow emerged, his eyes blazing as he gazed at Dan Chen.

As for his movement, the Dan Family Patriarch far away naturally sensed it, immediately frowned, waved his palm, and slammed a palm fiercely toward that side.

"Hehe, Old Man Dan, if you actually manage to save Dan Chen, then I might as well quit cultivation and go home to farm."

Seeing the former trying to block Liu Cang from grabbing Dan Chen, Yao Chen gave a hehe smile, then flicked his body, arriving before the attack released by the Dan Family Patriarch and blocked it.

Seeing this, the Dan Family Patriarch's face instantly darkened, and he quickly launched several attacks.

However, all of these attacks were blocked by Yao Chen.

Meanwhile, those Battle Venerables on the Dan Family's side also noticed that fellow Liu Cang, and taking advantage of the earlier chaos, they ran out of their defenses, their faces turning green at once.

After all, they had previously claimed they could block the opponent.

Those little fish and shrimp just now, under the cover of the opponent's high-ranking Battle Venerables, merely crossed the defense line.

And Liu Cang was the leader of the Heaven Net Sect among the opposing forces; now that this fellow has crossed the defense line, where can they put their face?

As for the Thick Earth Venerable who had just fought Liu Cang, his face turned even more iron-blue.

Because their battlefield was relatively close to the Dan Family Patriarch's side.

Therefore, the battle qi pressure from the earlier clash between the Dan Family Patriarch and Yao Chen placed enormous pressure on them, forcing them to retreat considerably.

Yet they never expected that Liu Cang would seize this opportunity and directly run to Dan Chen's side.

As an earth-attribute cultivator, he inherently lacks speed, and given that the opponent had already been running for so long, how could he possibly catch up?

As for Dan Chen in the distance, thanks to her powerful soul power, she naturally also detected Liu Cang approaching from her side.

However, upon considering the vast gap between herself and her opponent, she also refrained from using regular combat techniques.

All that could be seen was her slender, fair jade hand swiftly extending, then immediately forming a strange hand seal before her.

As this hand seal took shape, a vast and majestic soul power rapidly condensed in Dan Chen's palm.

Meanwhile, perhaps due to the excessively rich soul power in her palm, even the surrounding space became extremely distorted.

However, if one looks closely, one can faintly discern a barely visible hand seal within that distorted space.

Immediately thereafter, the hand seal before Dan Chen transformed in a flash into a dazzling, bewildering illusion.

Then a delicate shout slowly issued from her mouth.

"Soul Mystic Seal Palm!"

As the shout faded, the majestic soul power atop Dan Chen's jade hand instantly solidified.

Moments later, a soul hand seal resembling her palm shot forth like lightning from her jade hand, straight toward Liu Cang.

Along its path, it tore space open, forming a pitch-black rift.

Although the soul hand seal is intangible, its unusual pressure can make one feel short of breath even from afar.

"How powerful this soul power is—perhaps even some Eighth Grade Intermediate alchemists are slightly inferior."

Regarding Dan Chen's unexpected move, Liu Cang's expression changed slightly at once.

Moreover, besides his astonishment, he dared not be the slightest bit negligent.

After all, what ordinary cultivators like them excel at is battle qi, not this sort of soul power.

Therefore, even as a Dou Zun Jian Feng cultivator, if faced with an alchemist whose soul power far surpasses his own launching a soul attack, he would not dare to be negligent.

Thus, Liu Cang's visage tightened as he swiftly mobilized the battle qi within his body.

In an instant, a chilling, deep-gray battle qi burst forth from his body, forming a massive fist imprint before him.

Immediately thereafter, that deep-gray fist imprint, under his control, violently surged toward the sky where he vaguely sensed danger.

Boom!

Just as that fist imprint flew out, it seemed to strike an invisible wall and violently exploded.

Instantly, a transparent surge, mixed with his dark-gray battle qi, spread extremely rapidly in all directions.

In a brief moment, that surge passed through Liu Cang's body and then continued spreading outward.

Hiss!

Having been pierced by those transparent surges, Liu Cang instantly felt as if struck by someone's combat technique; his body shuddered, he sucked in a cold breath, and uttered a painful groan.

"Soul attack, you wretched brat—today I will surely capture you, strip you naked, and tie you up in the plaza of the Heaven Net Sect for all to toy with!"

Liu Cang, struck by that soul shockwave, relied on his formidable battle qi to regain his senses from that inescapable pain, shook his head, and glared fiercely at the fleeing Dan Chen ahead.

Afterwards, he stepped hard into the void with his foot, his figure instantly shooting out, rushing straight toward Dan Chen ahead!

「You want to do that? Then you might as well die here today! 」

As soon as the former's figure shot out, a cold, harsh voice immediately echoed slowly across this sky.
