Chapter 5453

Their figures gradually disappeared on the horizon, leaving behind only the Divine Capital City occupied by the demonic cultivators and the figures still engaged in a fierce battle in the city.

Kai in the palace held the Dragon Slaying Sword, and his sword skills were powerful and open, retaining the original domineering power of the Dragon Slaying Sword while incorporating the weirdness of the demon clan.

Each of his swords carries the power to destroy the world, yet is unpredictable and impossible to defend against.

The Soul Devourer was not to be outdone. Countless black soul threads surrounded his body. These soul threads seemed to have life and kept attacking Kai.

Each soul thread carried a powerful suction force, as if it wanted to pull out Kai’s soul.

“Soul-devouring Silk!”

A trace of fear flashed across Kai’s eyes. “I didn’t expect you to have cultivated this evil skill to such a level!”

The Soul-Eating Silk is the Soul-Eating Lord’s famous skill. It can directly attack the enemy’s soul and is extremely vicious and domineering.

Back then in the Ninth Heaven, countless cultivators died at the hands of this soul-devouring silk.

“Huh, do you think you’re the only one making progress?”

Soul Devourer sneered, “Although I have been trapped in this sixth heaven for these years, I have not been idle!”

Countless soul-devouring threads attacked Kai, each carrying a deadly threat.

Kai did not dare to be careless, and quickly circulated the demonic energy and spiritual power in his body to form a protective shield around him.

“Ding ding ding!”

The soul-devouring silk kept hitting the protective shield, making crisp sounds.

The protective shield was shaking violently and was in danger of being breached at any time.

Kai gritted his teeth and continuously injected the strength in his body into the protective shield.

He knew that once the protective shield was breached, these soul-devouring threads would instantly extract his soul. Not only would he die, but the body he was parasitizing would also suffer.

“Chi Yun, you are offering a pointless resistance!”

Soul Devourer sneered, “You are no match for me. Just surrender! I might consider sparing a wisp of your soul!”

“surrender?”

Kai said disdainfully, “Do you think I, Chi Yun, am the kind of person who is afraid of death? Even if I die, I will drag you down with me!”

After saying that, Kai suddenly increased the output of demonic energy, and the protective shield instantly became more solid.

Then, he rushed towards the Soul Devourer with the Dragon Slaying Sword in hand. The black demonic energy on the sword surged, forming a huge black sword energy.

“court death!”

The Soul Devourer snorted coldly, formed seals with his hands, and countless soul-devouring threads gathered together to form a huge black ghost claw, grabbing towards Kai.

“boom!”

The black sword energy and the black ghost claw collided with each other, producing a huge shock wave.

The entire palace was shaking violently, tiles on the roof were falling off, and bottomless cracks appeared on the walls.

Kai was shocked and took a few steps back, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

He could feel his strength rapidly depleting. After all, he was only a wisp of soul, and his ability to exert strength was limited. Long-term, high-intensity combat was a huge burden for him.

Soul Devourer was not feeling well either. Although his body had become nearly 80% stronger, it had not yet fully recovered.

Fighting against an opponent like the Scarlet Cloud Demon Lord was also a considerable drain on him.

“Chi Yun, do you think you can stop me like this?”

Soul Devourer sneered, “You are too naive!”

After saying this, Soul Devourer suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of black devil blood.

The devil’s blood turned into a blood mist in the air, instantly covering the entire palace.

In the blood mist, countless shrill screams were heard, as if countless wronged souls were struggling in it.

“Blood Soul Curse!”

Kai’s expression changed, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, “You actually even practiced this kind of forbidden technique!”

The Blood Soul Curse is an extremely sinister forbidden technique that requires one’s own blood and the souls of countless dead souls to cast.
