"What?!" Long Tianlu's expression, initially marked with a sneer, underwent a rapid transformation filled with stark disbelief and terror.
He had assumed in his heart that Jiang Chen, suffering from the aftereffects of the secret art, had lost his fighting capabilities and retreated into the Holy Land.
But to his shock, not only had Jiang Chen retained his combat prowess, he had unexpectedly unleashed such a tremendous surge of power!
The potency of this unexpected assault was teetering on the precipice of the Transcendence realm!
Most notably, the soul attack was on par with his own, despite his expertise in the Spirit Dao!
At this juncture, Long Tianlu was wholly engrossed in restraining Mo Yu.
However, he was ill-prepared for Jiang Chen's premeditated surprise attack. With no time to formulate an effective defense, he could do nothing more than brace for the impending assault, his eyes wide with shock.
Boom!
The ethereal, colorless soul assault, combined with the overpowering Sword Dao attack, squarely struck Long Tianlu.
In that moment, Long Tianlu's scalp tingled with dread as the terror of impending doom caused every cell in his body to shriek in panic!
Immediately after, an unbearable surge of intense pain exploded within his brain.
His form was simultaneously enveloped by countless sharp forces of the Sword Dao, swiftly slashing him into a myriad of pieces!
"Ptui!!" Long Tianlu spewed out a mouthful of fresh blood, his face contorted in agony, and the light in his eyes momentarily faded!
"Now's the time, Purple Heaven Immortal Martial Star Splitting Slash!" Mo Yu's eyes flared open as he funneled all his Yuan Power into the Purple Heaven Immortal Martial Sword without reserve. A sword light, akin to a venomous serpent, impaled Long Tianlu's body!
"Ah!!" Only then did Long Tianlu's agonized scream resonate.
He desperately attempted to deploy the techniques of the Transcendence realm, but as new wounds triggered older ones, his body convulsed violently, vomiting another geyser of fresh blood!
Caught off guard, Long Tianlu was struck squarely by the Purple Heaven Immortal Martial Sword. It tore straight through his defenses and embedded deeply into his vitals!
Slash!
Multiple strands of sword Qi detonated again, causing Long Tianlu's body to swell violently. His pores spewed forth vast sprays of blood arrows and a fog of blood mist.
'One Thought Vanishing Moon!' Jiang Chen wasn't going to allow Long Tianlu a moment's respite.
Seizing the opportunity while his adversary was vulnerable, he launched another potent soul attack, paired with a full force display of Sword Dao.
Countless threads of sword Qi, as swift as light, fired directly into the bloody aperture in Long Tianlu's chest.
"Ah! You dare, you wretch!" A rare hint of desperation echoed in Long Tianlu's agonized cry.
He desperately yearned to employ his power-amplifying secret art, but his injuries were too severe!
His near-death ordeal in the Bottomless Abyss had already taken a heavy toll, reducing his realm to the Dao Palace realm, thereby underscoring the gravity of his condition.
He was akin to a towering edifice whose foundational pillars had crumbled, rendering him dangerously unstable.
Now, the relentless barrage from Jiang Chen and Mo Yu was simply too much for him to bear, resulting in a bloody collapse!
"Hahaha, what wouldn't I dare!! Today, I will claim the head of a Transcendence realm powerhouse!" A murderous glint shone in Jiang Chen's eyes as he, along with Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning, launched relentless soul attacks that made Long Tianlu feel as if his head would burst.
If it weren't for Long Tianlu's soul originally being at the Transcendence realm, he wouldn't have survived even three moves.
At this moment, he had truly reached his breaking point!
"Hand me the sword!!" Jiang Chen assaulted Long Tianlu like a berserker, all the while signaling Mo Yu.
"Take it!" Mo Yu instantly grasped the situation, promptly handing the immortal sword to Jiang Chen.
Seizing this moment of distraction, Long Tianlu attempted to flee. But how could he foresee that he wasn't just up against two adversaries, but four in reality!!
"Falling Radiance! Soul Silence!" Both Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning, without any concern for the depletion of their soul power, simultaneously launched their own secret art soul attacks!
In an instant, the twin soul assaults bombarded Long Tianlu's soul.
"No! How can this be!" Long Tianlu's body stiffened, even twitching momentarily, his heart flooding with boundless disbelief and despair.
'Dark Star Sky Cleaving Sword!' In the next instant, wielding the Purple Heaven Immortal Martial Sword, Jiang Chen channeled an immense amount of Dao Yuan Power into it, propelling his Sword Dao to its utmost limit.
He resembled a frigid streak of light, flashing across Long Tianlu's neck in a heartbeat!
Rumble!
The sheer potency of the Sword Dao, unleashed by the Purple Heaven Immortal Martial Sword, detonated forth, with the force of numerous Great Daos such as the Thunder Dao burgeoning in its aftermath!
The Burning World Raging Flames surged even more dramatically, setting half the sky alight!!
In an instant, Long Tianlu could no longer maintain his defense, and the Nether Soul Crystal at the nape of his neck was cleanly severed.
"Ahhhh!" Long Tianlu's face contorted into a horrifying grimace as he emitted a truly gut-wrenching scream.
However, he had entirely lost the capacity to resist and could only watch helplessly as his power and life rapidly dwindled away.
In a mere blink, the light in Long Tianlu's eyes completely extinguished, his consciousness eternally engulfed by darkness.
Thus, this formidable demon, originally at the Middle-stage Transcendence realm, met his demise at Jiang Chen's hand!
"He's dead, he's actually dead! Jiang Chen, you slew him, hahaha, outstanding!" Upon witnessing this sight, Mo Yu instantly erupted in exultant laughter.
'Gather!' With a casual wave of his hand, Jiang Chen retrieved the corpse and the Nether Soul Crystal, then promptly assisted Mo Yu in flying towards the Holy Land's formation without delay.
Though Mo Yu had managed to avoid irreparable foundational injuries thanks to his timely intervention, the wounds inflicted on his body were still grave and demanded immediate attention.
"Lord Long Tianlu has been slain!" In a voice tinged with shock, a demon cried out.
Another, grappling to comprehend the events, exclaimed, "How can this be? Lord Long Tianlu was a formidable powerhouse at the Third Step of the Demonic Path. How could he fall so easily?"
The remaining members of the Nether Soul Demon Clan stared in disbelief, their eyes wide, almost bulging from their sockets. The dread and despair on their faces were palpable.
A revered Transcendence realm powerhouse, of unfathomable strength, had just been defeated. It felt like a dreadful nightmare!
In panic, one demon shouted, "Retreat! With Lord Long Tianlu gone, we must flee! Return to the Nether Soul Demon Domain and call for backup!"
Almost instantly, driven by instinct, the remaining demons began their retreat.
But alas, how could Jiang Chen let such a golden opportunity slip through his fingers?
His speed had already peaked, unparalleled across the entire battlefield.
After swiftly securing Mo Yu within the Holy Land's Grand Formation, he instantly pivoted and in a solitary stride arrived in front of a Dao Comprehension realm demon.
"Ah! If I'm going down, you're coming with me!" Aware that escape was impossible, the Dao Comprehension realm demon lunged at Jiang Chen like a frenzied beast.
"Mere insects!" Jiang Chen's expression remained impassive as he casually swung the long sword in his hand, instantly dispatching them.
He didn't halt; with his subsequent step, he materialized behind another demon. Without even a moment's hesitation, he swung his sword down and rapidly redirected his focus.
In the space of a single breath, he had annihilated over a dozen formidable demons.
These members of the Nether Soul Demon Clan were the quickest to flee. Those demonic creatures lagging behind, upon witnessing this spectacle, were instantaneously consumed by utter despair!
However, these beings were termed 'demonic' for a reason, attributed to their ruthless, bloodthirsty, and feral nature.
Despite their impending doom, they astonishingly launched suicidal attacks against Jiang Chen.
"Good, this spares me the trouble of hunting them down one by one!" A chilly smirk surfaced at the corner of Jiang Chen's mouth as he brandished his long sword.
A blade of sword Qi instantaneously ascended like a rising sun, banishing the darkness and annihilating all the members of the Nether Soul Demon Clan in its path.
Simultaneously, countless demonic beasts perished under this sword. Large swaths of beasts toppled like sheaves of harvested grain.
'Excellent, all these present opportunities for me!' A satisfied smile emerged at the corner of Jiang Chen's mouth. Without delay, he brandished his sword and plunged back into the fray.
