Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?-Chapter 1066 - 1062: Sonic Showdown

The green-robed youth did not answer Shen Siyuan’s question; he merely tapped the drumstick lightly on his palm and then struck the two sticks together, producing a crisp "clang" like the sound of metal clashing. The clear sound pierced through the cold Yin of the Netherworld.

As the sound fell, the surrounding air rippled visibly to the naked eye, expanding layer by layer, even distorting the red glow of the blood moon slightly.

Shen Siyuan’s expression immediately became grave.

He couldn’t discern anything extraordinary about the drumstick itself, yet he could feel a formidable power emanating from that crisp sound.

Was it the drumstick itself that was special, or was the green-robed youth’s power simply unfathomable?

He dared not be careless, his thoughts racing, unsure how to respond, given he knew nothing about this so-called "Venerable."

"May I know how to address you?"

Shen Siyuan soberly asked the question back, keeping his gaze fixed on the opponent, not relaxing in the slightest.

The green-robed youth seemed not to hear, continuing to scrutinize his group, his brow furrowing tighter.

His deep, shimmering eyes locked onto Shen Siyuan as if sensing something suddenly, his tone filled with incredulous wonder: "No... You have the presence of a living person on you, and moreover..."

His gaze swept over Xiao Yue, Dou Dou, and Duoduo, showing unhidden shock: "You are Yin Gods?!"

"Still, I haven’t learned your name."

Shen Siyuan spoke again, his tone calm, but he had secretly signaled Xiao Yue and the others to act.

Before his words fell, Xiao Yue stepped forward with a clear shout that echoed through the ruins: "I, Wu Weiyang, invade the territory and seize it brutally."

At the utterance of the true words, a surge of righteous Qi gathered in the world, countless golden spears materialized in mid-air, their tips gleaming fiercely like a locust swarm, overwhelming as they shot toward the green-robed youth.

Simultaneously, Dou Dou’s entire body ignited with divine fire; her short legs kicked, charging from the left like a blazing fireball.

Duoduo transformed into a strand of grey-blue smoke, silently circling from the right, under the Qiankun Umbrella, whose handle spun with hidden clear light.

In that thunderous assault, Shen Siyuan felt a sudden and intense sense of crisis from deep within his soul, so sharp it sent shivers down his spine.

Almost instinctively, golden light erupted around him, the Ten Thousand Soul Banner transformed into a purple-gold robe and instantly covered him. Radiant golden light exploded like a fierce sun, dispelling all the surrounding cold Yin Qi.

"Swish~Swish~"

With the golden light’s bloom, countless tiny transparent bugs indistinguishable to the naked eye fell from the void like dust whisked up by the wind.

They touched the golden light and emitted a quiet "sizzle," transforming into wisps of black smoke and vanishing without a trace.

It turned out, the green-robed youth held the same idea as Shen Siyuan, openly testing while secretly launching a surprise attack.

"Boom~Boom~Boom~"

Having their surprise attack uncovered, the green-robed youth stopped pretending, holding the drumsticks with both hands to strike fiercely at the bronze bull horn drum tied around his waist.

The thunderous drumbeats exploded like a storm, echoing over the ruins, painfully vibrating the eardrums.

An invisible sonic force radiated madly from him as the center, spreading outward.

The incoming golden spears broke upon contacting the sonic waves, vanishing into nothing as if melting ice and snow.

Seeing this, Dou Dou, at the front, twisted her butt, losing all fighting spirit, and turned around to flee at an astonishing speed, like a fiery meteor streaking far away in a blink, leaving only a trail of red.

Duoduo was more decisive; sensing danger, she spun the umbrella handle and vanished into thin air without leaving a trace of smoke.

After shattering the spears, the violent sonic waves retained their momentum, infused with a world-destroying pressure, sweeping toward Shen Siyuan and Xiao Yue.

Xiao Yue was fearless, a flick of her wrist wrapped the Soul-hooking Chain onto her arm, its end resonating with the "ding ding dong dong" of the Three Pure Ones Bell.

Though the drumbeats were fierce, they couldn’t suppress the bell sound, instead winding around the clear, penetrating sound like hit by an invisible sharp sword, the gathered sound waves cleaved in two and scattered left and right.

Without Shen Siyuan’s help, she smoothly countered the drum’s attack with the bell sound alone.

"Huh?"

The green-robed youth’s eyes flashed with surprise, his gaze locked onto the Three Pure Ones Bell before Xiao Yue, a cold smile curling his lips.

"Interesting."

His words had not yet petered out before he intensified the drumstick striking, producing a continuous "boom boom boom boom," like torrential rain pounding down.

The air vibrated furiously, the ground beneath resonating, the abandoned city ruins’ broken walls and remains astonishingly lifted off the ground by the drum’s tremors, suspended in mid-air with rubble falling, the scene horrifying.

Xiao Yue’s expression was unchanged, her wrist shaking faster, the bell’s resonant "ding ding ding ding" like tapping raindrops forming an invisible barrier that held firm against the surging drumbeats.

The bell and drum sound collided above, creating a deafening roar, the surging gas blowing around the group, their clothing fluttering wildly.

Having just returned, Dou Dou and Duoduo hid behind Shen Siyuan, one peeking out her little head and the other turning into swirling smoke, wary looks directed ahead.

Against such a sonic battle, they were of no help and could only watch on.

Suddenly, an unexpected change occurred.

The floating ruins seemed to be under invisible control, abruptly changing direction like countless missiles, swept along by harsh winds, hurtling towards Shen Siyuan and his group!

"Wow!"

Dou Dou shrank her neck in fright, hurriedly ducking behind Shen Siyuan, not daring to open her eyes.

Xiao Yue’s face finally showed a slight change; so many massive stones were coming, their momentum too overwhelming to be stopped by the bell sound alone.

Shen Siyuan’s expression also became increasingly solemn.

Only the smoking form of Duoduo remained nonchalant, leisurely circling nearby.

At this critical moment, Shen Siyuan finally acted.

He slightly twisted his wrist, and the spear formed from the banner’s shaft instantly appeared in his palm.

Next, a rainbow light flowed from his palm along the shaft, Five Elements Power circulating ceaselessly, momentarily transforming it into a Five Elements Magnetic Gun.

But that was not the end.

His fingertip flashed with lightning, a violet-gold arc leaping out, coursing along the gun shaft with a "crackle," entwining and interweaving with the five elements light, releasing a domineering pressure.

Shen Siyuan’s greatest advantage had never been adhering to convention.

He could integrate all he had learned fluidly, unrestricted and ever-changing.
