Chapter 476: Extinction of All Spirits

~7 min read 1,292 words

The Demon Sword was swung by Chi You. In an instant, wind swept through the clouds, and black sword qi permeated the air. Within the sword qi, hideous and terrifying figures roared and flew out, pouncing on Su Xuan one after another.

These were all the dead who had perished under Chi You's sword.

Su Xuan stood in the air, with twenty-four flying swords circling around him.

Using the twenty-four flying swords, he unleashed the "Earthly Twenty-Four" he had learned from the Nong Family.

The Earthly Twenty-Four was an extremely powerful heritage, originating from the ancient Flame Emperor Shennong.

It is worth mentioning that if one followed normal history, Chi You was also a certain generation of the Flame Emperor.

There was actually a deep connection between the two.

However, it seemed that Chi You did not recognize the Earthly Twenty-Four, or rather, even if he did, he didn't care much.

In the ancient era, countless unique skills appeared, but Chi You didn't take any of them seriously; he believed that only he was the strongest.

The twenty-four flying swords evolved into spring, summer, autumn, and winter—the twenty-four solar terms.

The power of time flowed within them.

The sword qi and hideous ghost shadows slashed out by Chi You were worn away one after another by the power of time before they could even reach Su Xuan.

"Hmph!"

Chi You snorted coldly, but he didn't marvel at Su Xuan's methods. He switched from holding the sword with one hand to gripping it with both, and slashed out another sword.

"Extinction of All Spirits!"

A cold voice came from his mouth. In an instant, countless wandering souls flew out from the Chi You Sword. They did not fight individually as before, splitting into small sword qi, but instead condensed into a mass. Suddenly, a huge, hideous ghost shadow appeared, opened its mouth, and let out a roar.

A piercing sound wave spread out.

On the platform of the Many Loulan Palace, the Many Loulan High Priestess was imprisoned in a cage.

And below the platform, the people in the square who had followed Su Xuan here all felt a palpitation from their souls upon hearing this sound. Their bodies immediately became unstable, and it looked as if their souls were about to leave their bodies and be devoured by this huge ghost shadow.

Only a few people like Concubine Yan and the Moon Goddess, who were powerful and proficient in arts, were able to barely stabilize their souls.

But for the many Golden Fire Cavalry who had followed Meng Tian here, it was simply a nightmare.

Many felt they were about to die.

Just then, Su Xuan also spoke.

"Seal!"

A single word, "Seal," completely locked down the void where he and Chi You were.

Immediately, the sound no longer traveled outward.

The demonic sound disappeared, and the crowd woke up from that feeling of soul palpitation. Looking back at Su Xuan and Chi You, they saw that their collision had no sound at all.

Some were extremely surprised, thinking something was wrong with their ears.

The Six-Fingered Black Hero and others saw the clue.

"Did he forbid the sound from spreading outward? Looking at it now, it seems we are the ones dragging you down!"

It was already unclear who would win or lose between Su Xuan and Chi You, as Chi You was too powerful. Now, while fighting Chi You, Su Xuan still had to worry about them, which further weakened Su Xuan's strength.

If they had known Chi You was so powerful, they wouldn't have joined in the fun.

The Six-Fingered Black Hero suddenly felt some self-reproach for his own weakness.

In the past, he did not overly pursue powerful strength. For the Mohist School, strength was always secondary; the most important thing was to implement the Mohist philosophy and save the people of the world.

But at this moment, the Six-Fingered Black Hero felt he was too weak.

If he could be a little stronger, even if he couldn't help Su Xuan, at least he wouldn't be a burden to him.

In mid-air, there seemed to be an invisible force enveloping the space between Su Xuan and Chi You, isolating all the sounds of the collision.

Within the barrier formed by this force, the demonic sound still existed, and Chi You's voice also rang out suddenly.

"At a time like this, you still have the mood to care about others! You are truly seeking your own death!"

The ghost shadow let out a hideous wail, its demonic sound capturing souls as it pounced toward Su Xuan.

The twenty-four flying swords flew through the air, the power of time flowing within them. Spring birth, summer growth, autumn withering, winter extinction—Su Xuan incorporated the Earthly Twenty-Four battle formation into his sword technique, operating it to the extreme.

If the six great elders of the Nong Family had seen this, they would surely have found it incredible. Although Su Xuan had gained many insights about the Earthly Twenty-Four from them, gaining insights did not mean one could cultivate the Earthly Twenty-Four to this level, let alone incorporate it into a sword technique and evolve it into a sword formation.

"A petty trick!"

Chi You spoke coldly. Earlier, he had witnessed the sword formation Su Xuan evolved with twenty-four flying swords. It had to be said that Su Xuan's sword formation was somewhat mysterious, actually blocking his attack.

But in the end, that was only because of the strength of his bones; the swords forged from his bones were extraordinary.

Su Xuan's strength, in his view, was nothing more than that.

He was already inferior to him, and he had even actively dispersed his power for the sake of those ants—he was truly courting death.

The ghost shadow collided with the twenty-four flying swords.

The power of time intended to wear away Chi You's offensive as before, however, this huge ghost shadow was composed of countless wandering souls. The power released by the twenty-four flying swords only wiped out the souls on the periphery.

Compared to the volume of the ghost shadow itself, these souls could only be considered insignificant dust.

The huge ghost shadow forcibly pushed against the twenty-four flying swords and arrived before Su Xuan.

Then, its body dispersed, turning into countless black mists. Within the black mist, the ghost shadow roared, pouncing on Su Xuan one after another. In an instant, it wrapped Su Xuan's figure within it.

In the square, because the sound was isolated, Concubine Yan and the others could not hear the sound of Su Xuan and Chi You fighting, but they could see what was happening.

Upon seeing Su Xuan wrapped by countless ghost shadows.

The crowd could not help but be worried.

Immediately afterward, they saw countless ghost shadows explode.

Dazzling golden light permeated around Su Xuan's body.

This was the "Life Light" technique, condensing a protective divine light that could avoid all demons and monsters, immune to all laws!

Red light flickered in Chi You's eyes.

Holding the Demon Sword, his figure flew out. Wherever he passed, demonic mist permeated. This demonic mist carried a power that corroded everything, and the Qi-sealing technique Su Xuan had previously laid around him was shattered with a bang.

Fortunately, the demonic sound was gone.

The sound reappeared, but it did not affect the crowd.

Under the gaze of the crowd, Chi You held his sword and killed toward Su Xuan. The twenty-four flying swords flew out one after another, meeting Chi You under the manipulation of Su Xuan, who was bathed in golden light.

Chi You swung his sword in a slash, a booming sound echoed, and the twenty-four flying swords were knocked away one after another.
