Chapter 5751
The black-robed leader’s entire attention was focused on the beastman before him, completely unprepared for a sudden, ruthless attack from his side and rear, and with such terrifying strength!
By the time he felt the bone-chilling killing intent and the unparalleled sharpness of the sword energy, it was already too late!
In his haste, he could only hold the Myriad Soul Banner horizontally in front of him, unleashing his full demonic energy, creating numerous ghostly shadows on the banner in an attempt to block the attack.
However, before Kai’s supreme sword strike, which fused multiple laws and was driven by chaotic immortal power, his defenses were as flimsy as paper!
“Swoosh—!”
There was no deafening roar, only a soft sound, like cloth being torn.
The five-colored sword energy, like a hot knife through butter, easily pierced through the Myriad Soul Banner’s layers of black energy protection, then precisely pierced through the black-robed leader’s brow!
The black-robed leader’s movements instantly froze, his face still showing an expression of shock and disbelief, his pupils rapidly dilating.
The next moment, his body, like a sand sculpture weathered by time, began to crack from his brow, countless spiderweb-like fissures appearing. Then, with a “bang,” his soul, along with his body, was completely annihilated, turning to ashes!
Only the broken Ten Thousand Souls Banner and a storage ring clattered to the ground.
Silence!
Deathly silence!
The sinister smiles on the faces of the remaining four black-robed men froze instantly, replaced by boundless fear and horror!
They hadn’t even seen how the newcomer appeared; their strongest leader had already been instantly killed?!
The two beastmen were also stunned. The dazed feeling of surviving the ordeal made them forget to react for a moment, staring blankly at the tall figure who had suddenly appeared, dressed in a blue robe, wielding a blood-dripping longsword.
Kai established his authority with a single sword strike, without pausing. The Dragon-Slaying Sword emitted a pleasant, light hum, the sword moving with him!
“Space-Time Domain, open!”
Centered on him, the space within a ten-foot radius slightly distorted, and the flow of time became viscous and slow!
The four black-robed figures, whose strength ranged from the second to fourth rank of the Celestial Immortal Realm, instantly felt as if they were sinking into an invisible quagmire. Every movement became incredibly difficult, and the circulation of their demonic energy became extremely sluggish!
“Die!”
The cold word escaped Kai’s lips.
The sword light rose again, like the scythe of death, drawing a deadly trajectory within the confined spacetime.
“No!”
“Spare me!” The piercing screams and pleas for mercy abruptly ceased.
A flash of sword light, and four heads flew into the air, their faces filled with terror and despair.
The headless corpses swayed and fell, blood gushing out like a fountain, staining the ground red. Their souls, attempting to escape, were pulverized by the lingering sword energy within the domain.
From Kai’s appearance to the complete annihilation of the five disciples of the Myriad Souls Demon Sect, the entire process took only a few breaths!
Clean, swift, and thunderous!
Kai stood with his sword, his robes fluttering, untouched by dust.
He slowly turned around, looking at the two beastmen who were still in shock.
At this moment, Kai felt good!
But reason told him that he couldn’t be blindly confident and pretentious anymore.
Otherwise, he would easily be proven wrong.
“Thank you… thank you for saving my life, senior!”
The tiger-striped man was the first to react, enduring the excruciating pain, struggling to kneel on one knee, his voice trembling slightly from excitement and injuries.
The leopard-tailed woman also quickly knelt down, her eyes filled with gratitude and awe.
“No need for formalities.”
Kai raised his hand in a gesture of support, a gentle force lifting the two men to their feet.
His gaze swept over the corpses on the ground and the tattered Ten Thousand Souls Banner, his brows furrowing slightly. “You just said they were from the Ten Thousand Souls Demon Sect? They frequently come to plunder your Beast Soul Crystal mines?”
“Exactly!”
the tiger-striped man gritted his teeth, “These demon bastards have become increasingly rampant in recent decades! Not only do they hunt down our clansmen who are alone on the outskirts, extracting their souls to cultivate evil arts, but they also covet the Beast Soul Crystal mines nurtured deep within the mountains! Senior, you…”
Kai didn’t answer immediately. He walked to the spot where the black-robed leader had vanished, and remotely retrieved the storage ring and the tattered Ten Thousand Souls Banner. He
forcibly broke through the remaining restrictions on the storage ring with his divine sense. Inside, besides some commonly used demonic pills, materials, and a not-too-large number of spirit stones, there wasn’t much of value.
There were also no clues about the Soul Devouring Venerable or the core secrets of the Ten Thousand Souls Demon Sect.
His gaze fell on the remaining flesh and blood and the lingering aura of the remnants of the black-robed men.
