Xiao Ze's words were like a sharp blade, stabbing deep into Soul Sever's soul, reminding him of the helplessness he felt years ago when facing the nine-star Dou Sheng, Xiao Xuan. The red light in the skull's eye sockets flickered violently. "Such sharp-tongued youth. If it weren't for that Xiao Xuan, I wouldn't have ended up like this."
Xiao Ze raised an eyebrow, realizing this indeed stemmed from the hatred brought by his Xiao clan ancestors. "Haha, stop boasting. With your cultivation, you survived an encounter with Ancestor Xiao Xuan?"
Xiao Ze had no intention of exaggerating his enemy's strength and casually remarked, "As far as I know, Ancestor Xiao Xuan was one of the continent's top experts back then. Like I said before, with his nine-star Dou Sheng strength, he could probably crush you with just one slap."
Xiao Ze was certain this Soul Clan Dou Sheng had participated in the battle against Xiao Xuan and survived by chance, which explained his deep-seated hatred for Xiao clan descendants.
The red light in Soul Sever's eyes intensified as he spoke with a sinister tone, "Indeed, I made a grave mistake by allowing a sharp-tongued brat like you to speak so freely."
"Back then, I was a mid-stage Dou Sheng. Dealing with a mere two-star Dou Sheng like you shouldn't take much effort."
"Oh, and what about now?" Xiao Ze responded with a faint smile.
"Now, it won't take much effort to capture you!" Soul Sever shouted, losing all desire for further conversation with Xiao Ze. The void trembled with intense spatial fluctuations, and countless pitch-black chains emerged from the void.
The chains, adorned with tormented soul faces, wailed in agony as they shot towards Xiao Ze and Xun'er, filling the sky.
The Soul-Severing Chains were Soul Sever's weapon, refined over many years, with unique soul-harming properties. Ordinary strong opponents struck by these chains would have their souls shaken or even extracted from their bodies. For Soul Clan members, dealing with soul bodies was a simple task.
Unfortunately for Soul Sever, he faced Xiao Ze. The countless black chains that pierced the void collided with the infinite destructive power of Black Demon Lightning. Upon contact, the souls within the chains were instantly annihilated, and the chains themselves exploded under the force of the Black Demon Lightning.
Xiao Ze formed a pitch-black lightning sphere in his hand, and the world filled with lightning was a threat even a three-star Dou Sheng would struggle to withstand.
Whoosh! A subtle sound of something slicing through the air, nearly undetectable amid the thunder, flew stealthily towards Soul Sever. However, with extensive combat experience, Soul Sever sensed the danger within the lightning sphere and quickly used the Ten Thousand Souls Demonic Claw to intercept it.
The sphere of Black Demon Lightning exploded with immense force, but Soul Sever managed to avoid being fully engulfed. As he witnessed the world of lightning unfolding, Soul Sever was startled by Xiao Ze's powerful techniques.
"Haha, is this your trump card? It's nothing special!" Soul Sever sneered, quickly retreating to avoid the expanding lightning sphere. The sphere's expansion wasn't fast enough to instantly trap an opponent unless it was directly upon them. Attempting to continuously expand the sphere to capture the enemy would significantly weaken its strength, making it easier to break free.
Seeing Soul Sever evade the sphere, Xiao Ze felt a hint of regret. But if the lightning sphere could be dodged, let's see how Soul Sever handles the Yellow Springs Fury.
Dou Qi surged from Xiao Ze, and his soul power condensed into a thousand-foot-tall soul avatar. He formed a unique hand seal at his lips.
Yellow Springs Fury!
The massive soul avatar opened its mouth, emitting an ancient and peculiar sound. The terrifying sound waves spread like lightning, shattering space into countless fragments and filling the air with black fissures. The Soul-Severing Chains broke apart and were swallowed into the void.
The overwhelming sound waves, combined with soul power, formed a massive wave that surged towards Soul Sever. The destructive power dismantled the world of lightning, and under Xiao Ze's control, Black Demon Lightning merged with the sound waves.
Sound waves, Black Demon Lightning, and soul power fused into a cataclysmic wave, crashing towards Soul Sever with earth-shattering force.
"A high-tier Heaven-ranked Dou Technique! Impossible!" The red light in Soul Sever's eyes flared with disbelief. Reacting quickly, he condensed the black mist around him into a cocoon-like shield.
Boom!
The sound waves spread out, turning the land within a radius of several dozen miles upside down. Countless energy bodies exploded upon contact, leaving behind crystalline energy cores. As the primary target of the Yellow Springs Fury, Soul Sever was blasted nearly a hundred miles away.
Within Xiao Ze's soul perception, Soul Sever's black mist had completely dissipated, leaving a damaged skeleton with dim, almost extinguished red eyes.
Xiao Ze flashed towards Soul Sever's location, determined to finish him off. Xun'er, observing from above, saw the aftermath of the Yellow Springs Fury, a vast basin spanning dozens of miles, with the impact stretching nearly a hundred miles.
It was as if a colossal giant had struck the earth with a massive hammer, leaving this peculiar landscape. In the distance, intense energy fluctuations and raging lightning created a thunderous realm. Moments later, Xiao Ze reappeared, looking relaxed.
"All done."
Xun'er smiled wryly, realizing the growing gap between them. "A mid-stage three-star Dou Sheng from the Soul Clan couldn't withstand long against you, Xiao Ze?"
Xiao Ze patted her head, "What are you thinking? Whether it's my Black Demon Lightning or Yellow Springs Fury, both are incredibly rare. High-tier Heaven-ranked Dou Techniques are scarce even across the entire Dou Qi continent. Defeating a three-star Dou Sheng isn't surprising."
"When your soul realm reaches the Great Perfection of the Heaven Realm, you can learn Yellow Springs Fury too. It allows for fighting beyond one's level, even against Dou Shengs."
"Yellow Springs Fury? I can learn it too?" Xun'er was intrigued by Xiao Ze's offer.
"Of course. Once your soul realm reaches the late Heaven Realm or Great Perfection, I'll teach you."
As they talked, Xiao Ze collected the energy cores left by the remnants of the Yellow Springs Fury and led Xun'er towards the third layer of the Heaven Tomb.
