Chapter 404: The Shadow Demon Sect Falling into Despair

"You really are a madman!"

Ying Wuyi had a profound realization of Xiao Han's madness; what kind of existence would dare to use their own body as a vessel to contain a Spirit Array?

The power of a Spirit Array is beyond doubt; as long as one is well-prepared, one can even use a high-level Spirit Array to blast and kill a powerhouse whose strength far exceeds one's own. This is also the reason why Spirit Array Masters are so sought after, even though their overall cultivation is not considered outstanding.

But conversely, the vast majority of high-level Spirit Arrays for a Spirit Array Master require powerful Spirit Power to support them, though this Spirit Power can be substituted with other substances containing various types of spiritual energy.

And this is precisely the reason for Ying Wuyi's shock at Xiao Han's actions.

Using one's body to deploy a Spirit Array is equivalent to letting the consumption of the Spirit Array be borne entirely by oneself; Spirit Array Masters, who are not known for their cultivation, would almost never choose such a foolish method.

Doing so would only cause their own combat power to drop significantly, to the point where they might not even have the strength to manipulate the Spirit Array to fight.

However, Ying Wuyi was immediately filled with deep doubt; the Spirit Array Xiao Han used to block his offensive was clearly not an ordinary item, so how could it be something that his mere Seventh Grade Sovereign cultivation could withstand?

Yet, this question would naturally not be answered by Xiao Han, who was in the midst of the battlefield.

"Ten Directions Dragon Prison Array, Dragon Dance!"

Ying Wuyi soon felt the changes in the Spirit Array with a grim expression; clearly, this Spirit Array was not as simple as just trapping an enemy.

Not letting the former down, the cage trembled, and then, ten giant dragons suddenly emerged from the cage walls, attacking Ying Wuyi.

The dragon roars that shook the space and the sharp claws flashing with cold light forced him to focus all his attention on dealing with them.

Pitch-black Spirit Power was poured into the Sacred Object dagger, and the light within ten zhang of the surroundings seemed to be completely swallowed; the sharp blade tore through space, aiming at the black dragon head in front.

Just as Xiao Han was preparing to carefully observe the figure tossing and turning inside the cage, his eyes suddenly narrowed.

"Shadow Prison, Nether Shadow Heavenly Evil!"

A blood-colored long blade slashed down angrily at Xiao Han from behind. Just as Xiao Han prepared to dodge, he was stunned to find that the surrounding space had been sealed at some point, and he had fallen into a blood-colored space.

In the empty wasteland, a blood sun made one's heart feel cold.

"A mental attack?"

Xiao Han realized in his heart that this Shadow Demon Sect seemed to have quite a few methods targeting the Spirit Soul.

Countless fierce ghosts crawled out from the space; having such a batch of terrifying-looking things suddenly emerge on the wasteland did indeed seem rather chilling.

"Hehe~ Since you want to compete in mental power, then let's have some real fun!"

Xiao Han felt relaxed in his heart. If it were other aspects, Xiao Han might truly need to avoid the sharp edge, but when it came to the strength of the Spirit Soul, he would absolutely not lose to these few pathetic wretches of the Shadow Demon Sect.

In the outside world, the Supreme Elder of the Shadow Demon Sect saw Xiao Han fall into a stupor and looked at his companion with wild joy; the latter also looked pleasantly surprised, as it was he who had pulled the opponent into the illusion.

He then slashed the long blade down at Xiao Han, not daring to hope to kill Xiao Han, as that was a task even their Sect Master could not achieve.

He only needed to disrupt Xiao Han's control over the Spirit Array to make it convenient for the Sect Master to break free from the Spirit Array.

However, what was unexpected was that Xiao Han's body suddenly erupted with a terrifying storm, and the violent wind and snow instantly sent him flying, only stopping after a hundred zhang.

On the other side.

"Puff!"

That Supreme Elder who had launched the mental attack on Xiao Han suddenly let out a miserable howl, spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes dull, and he fell straight down from the sky.

A blood-colored shark took the opportunity to swallow the opponent's figure in one gulp; one could vaguely hear the sound of sharp teeth chewing on bones, and after finishing, it even cast a look of contempt at the crowd.

"Supreme Elder!" The crowd exclaimed upon seeing this, followed by boundless fear and sorrow; even the Eighth Grade Sovereign Supreme Elder had fallen, what about them?

Just at this moment, an angry roar from Ying Wuyi suddenly came from the Ten Directions Dragon Prison Array.

"Heavenly Shadow Dharma Body!"

A giant several thousand zhang tall, entwined with black mist, suddenly appeared in the grand array, with ferocious horns; it immediately grabbed two dragon shadows and then exerted force, forcefully beating the giant dragons into nothingness.

Xiao Han's eyes lit up; he had heard of this Dharma Body, which ranked fifty-seventh among the Supreme Dharma Bodies, and its power was quite good.

Seemingly ignited by the death of a Supreme Elder, Ying Wuyi did not hesitate to unleash his ultimate move.

"Sovereign Divine Ability, Shadow Heavenly Demon Prison!"

Inside the Spirit Array, the chest of the Dharma Body shone brightly, and trickles of pitch-black, viscous liquid flowed down, filling the entire Spirit Array space along its feet.

Subsequently, a giant black hand suddenly reached out from the black liquid, as if it were a signal; countless black hands reached out and then instantly elongated, like sharp arrows, quickly grabbing and entangling the bodies of the dragon shadows, attempting to drag them into the abyss step by step.

"Tch!"

Although he appreciated Ying Wuyi's desperate attitude, Xiao Han still sneered; if an Intermediate Spiritual Array could be broken just like this, how could it be used to contend against a High-Rank Earth Sovereign?

He formed seals again.

"Ten Directions Dragon Prison Array, Dragon Slaughter!"

The giant dragons that were about to be dragged into the black water surface erupted with powerful strength one after another, struggling only a few times before successfully tearing off the restraints on their bodies, and then pounced toward the Dharma Body in the sky.

"Boom! Boom!..."

The remaining giant dragons crazily tore at Ying Wuyi's Supreme Dharma Body; the latter was not to be outdone, almost abandoning his advantage as an assassin, and instead crazily traded injury for injury with the physically powerful giant dragons.

Xiao Han looked at Ying Wuyi, who was using a desperate fighting style inside the Spirit Array, and suddenly fixed his gaze on that black figure, unable to help but shake his head and sigh.

If he was not mistaken, Ying Wuyi's cultivation was already at the peak of the Lower Earth Sovereign, just waiting for an opportunity to break through that barrier.

Now, the Ten Directions Dragon Prison Array had clearly given the opponent such an excellent opportunity; as long as he survived this battle, had enough Supreme Spiritual Liquid for support, and went into seclusion for a period of time, stepping into that level was not a delusion.

However, Xiao Han clearly could not give the opponent that chance.

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes as he turned to look at the Shadow Demon Sect powerhouses who were struggling to survive in the Blood Shadow Lurking Shark Array.

What kind of power would a manipulated Intermediate Spiritual Array have?

The powerhouses of the Shadow Demon Sect had never experienced it before, but now they were experiencing that pain.

Under Xiao Han's control, the sea of blood suddenly surged, and the monstrous blood waves pressed down overwhelmingly, swallowing three Shadow Demon Sect Sovereigns who could not dodge in the blink of an eye.

Even with the obstruction of their Supreme Dharma Bodies, they only lasted for two or three breaths before being completely swallowed.

Up to this moment, there were only six people left on the field, including Xiao Han, who still had the strength to fight: Xiao Han and the five surviving Sovereigns led by the Shadow Demon Sect Supreme Elder.

Above the firmament, the blood-colored shark stood opposite the five giants, and the scene seemed to freeze there.

A gentle breeze brushed the face, brilliant blade light bloomed, sword shadows cleansed the dust, and blood shadows crisscrossed.

Ten-odd minutes later.

Opposite Xiao Han, only the Supreme Elder and his tottering Supreme Dharma Body remained.

"Cough, cough, cough—"

Surveying his own tattered Dharma Body and looking around at his fellow sect members trapped in a predicament, the Supreme Elder felt not only sorrow in his heart but also immense hatred for the intruder, Xiao Han.

Things having reached this point, how could he not understand that this person was determined to wipe out their Shadow Demon Sect, and that there was a high probability he would succeed.

He did not condemn Xiao Han for lacking moral integrity; their Shadow Demon Sect had never cared about such things.

He did not beg for mercy; it would be a futile effort.

Yet, the Supreme Elder still wanted to struggle before death, not for himself, but simply wanting to give it his all one last time.

Severely wounded, he cast a glance with eyes that had grown slightly murky at Xiao Han, whose expression had never changed, and then let out a sudden shout!

"Go to hell!"

Black Spirit Power erupted once more, and the massive Supreme Dharma Body charged forcefully toward Xiao Han's direction.

"Hm?"

Xiao Han raised an eyebrow, and the great array shifted rapidly, the shark's blood-red maw facing directly toward the enemy's direction.

And then...

Under Xiao Han's stunned gaze, the Supreme Elder's charging figure stopped abruptly, and then the entire Dharma Body slammed toward the massive golden bell that had been standing on the periphery of the entire battlefield.

The target was clearly the Red Gold Imperial Array that had trapped tens of thousands of Shadow Demon Sect members.

"Boom!"
