Chapter 2171: Poison‑Killing Soul

Chen Bà Tiān prepared to shoot at Ye Liuyun with a ninth‑tier divine bow, but he unleashed Chen Tao, who grasped his throat and stood in front of him.

If it weren't for rescuing his son, Chen Bà Tiān would not have stayed to fight Ye Liuyun.

So he shot at a Ninth Layer Late Stage Martial Cultivator beside Ye Liuyun, killing him with a single arrow and demanding Ye release the captive.

The other Ninth Layer Late Stage Martial Cultivators beside Chen Bà Tiān, once the battle began, used True Essence and discovered they were poisoned, with the toxin spreading rapidly.

Before they could act, they hurriedly suppressed the poison's spread with True Essence.

Even after taking detoxifying pills, they saw no improvement.

Ye Liuyun immediately unleashed Magic Vine, and while their True Essence circulation was sluggish, the vine devoured several of them.

Chen Bà Tiān also noticed that his Ninth Layer Mid Stage Martial Cultivators were now killing their own, turning the battlefield into a mess.

"It seems these Ninth Layer Mid Stage Martial Cultivators have also been controlled by them.

Their methods are truly despicable!"

Seeing the unfavorable situation, Chen Bà Tiān instantly thought of fleeing.

Chen Tao could not be saved; they could only wait for the dynasty's reinforcements before devising a plan.

Had he known Ye Liuyun's group was so hard to handle, he would have dispatched a ferry earlier and fled to the Boundless Sea.

The other two Ninth Layer Late Stage Martial Cultivators beside Ye Liuyun kept attacking, forcing Chen Bà Tiān to pull out various treasures to block them, retreating while fighting.

Ye Liuyun handed the Item to his duplicate and shot an arrow at it.

He had already fired two arrows, exhausting the energy in the Universal Cauldron.

Although the Divine Crystal had been replenished into the Universal Cauldron, the conversion still required some time.

Ye Liuyun also needed to retain enough Mysterious Origin to later deal with that Demon Race Soul.

"Super Divine Rank weapon!"

Chen Bà Tiān felt the Item's power, panicked, and hurriedly drew a treasure to block.

But the Item's speed was too great; before the treasure could intercept its path, an arrow pierced his chest.

At the same time, the duplicate sounded the Nine Nether Prelude, stimulating the Demon Race Soul's awakening, and produced a long‑unused magic staff, releasing the soul‑killing poison to pre‑attack Chen Bà Tiān's Sea of Consciousness, preparing for the Demon Race Soul's revival.

Strangely, Ye Liuyun noted that although a huge hole was shot in Chen Bà Tiān's chest, he did not die immediately.

The Demon Qi inside was even trying to fill the wound, but the injury was severe, so recovery was slow.

Ye Liuyun guessed that because he had refined the Demon Race's Physical Body, the Demon Qi in his body was auto‑recovering.

Thus he and his duplicate directly used the Golden Pupil to unleash Buddha Light Power, to eradicate the Demon Qi within him.

At this point, Chen Bà Tiān's Soul was already poisoned, his Physical Body's injuries could not heal, and he finally collapsed.

His Soul and Sea of Consciousness were already saturated with toxin.

Moreover, this soul‑killing poison was something he had never heard of, and he had no idea how to detoxify it, only watching his Soul being corroded.

Ye Liuyun took a deep breath, ready to give his all.

More thrilling battles lie ahead.

Chen Bà Tiān was easy to handle; that Demon Race Soul was the truly deadly thing.

He ordered his duplicate and the Martial Cultivators to spread out, lest the Demon Race Soul concentrate attacks on them.

The others fought smoothly; the high‑end forces beside Chen Bà Tiān had already been dealt with by Ye Liuyun.

Although the opponent's numbers were large, lacking high‑end forces they could not stop the assault; their defenses collapsed at a touch.

Just as Chen Bà Tiān's men prepared to flee and Ye Liuyun's subordinates readied pursuit, a fierce Soul pressure swept the battlefield, causing everyone's Soul to quake violently.

Martial Cultivators below Seventh Layer immediately clutched their heads and wailed, unable to bear this Soul pressure.

The others dared not move recklessly, mustering all their Soul power to resist the pressure.

The battles on the battlefield instantly halted.

The duplicate's Golden Pupil watched countless powerful Soul energies converge from all over Chen Bà Tiān's body into his Sea of Consciousness.

As soon as these Souls entered Chen Bà Tiān's Sea of Consciousness, they were instantly poisoned, suffering the corrosive toxin.

But the Soul forces were so many that before the old ones were fully corroded, a fresh wave of Souls poured in.

These Soul forces coalesced, gradually forming the shape of the Demon Race.

The Demon Race Soul, sensing the toxin in the Sea of Consciousness, was forced to burst out of Chen Bà Tiān's Sea of Consciousness, continuing to condense in the air.

The Sealing Demon Tablet and Magic Vine were both released by Ye Liuyun, and Buddha Light Power also radiated golden light directly from the core of that Demon Race Soul.

Ye Liuyun also swung the Demon Slaying Sword, chopping at the Demon Race Soul blade by blade.

Each strike of the Demon Slaying Sword also cut a gash, disrupting the Demon Race Soul's coalescence.

Lightning and Nether Ghost Fire were both sent by Ye Liuyun, via the Golden Pupil, into the Demon Race Soul's body.

Even the Nether Ghost Fire was quickly extinguished by its Soul power.

Only the lethal Soul‑killing toxin released by the duplicate kept spreading.

Even facing multiple attacks, the Demon Race Soul still solidified.

Only this time Ye Liuyun acted earlier, and its size was a notch smaller than before.

"Hoo, hoo..."

The moment the Demon Race Soul opened its eyes, it let out a painful roar!

Its internal Nether Ghost Fire, lightning, and Buddha Light kept flickering, and the toxin kept spreading; it must be extremely painful now.

The roar instantly stunned countless Martial Cultivators, causing them to collapse; many with weak Soul power were instantly killed or knocked unconscious.

"What kind of monster is this?"

"A giant beast of the Demon Race?"

The Martial Cultivators who remained conscious were now shocked.

They had never seen such a powerful Soul before.

Ye Liuyun and his clone dare not pause for even a moment, continuously unleashing a variety of attacks.

The Demon Race Soul finally takes notice of the two of them.

Even though the clone is in stealth, its Divine Soul Power is so strong that it can easily detect the clone.

When the Demon Race sees the armor on the clone, it reaches out to seize it.

Ye Liuyun directly uses Space Translocation to pull the clone into the Space World.

Roar!

The Demon Race Soul lets out another great roar toward Ye Liuyun.

This time even the Martial Cultivators near Ye Liuyun can't withstand it, and they are shaken until the seven orifices bleed.

Ye Liuyun now can't spare time to rescue them and continues to focus his energy on launching attacks.

The Demon Race Soul, being outside the Sea of Consciousness, already consumes energy to maintain itself long-term, and since all the attacks are released by Ye Liuyun, it charges straight toward Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness.

Ye Liuyun immediately plants the Demon Slaying Sword before the Sea of Consciousness, blocking it; even if it manages to break into his own Sea of Consciousness, it won't be easy.

The Demon Race Soul, heedless, rushes straight in, indifferent even though a deep trench has been carved across its chest.
