X-Dragon Era-Chapter 559 - s Speedy Slash Defeats Ke Zhan_2
"Hiss..." Upon hearing Yi Luo Xiang's words, Xin Yun couldn't help but tense up. Soul Severing! Wasn't that the signature battle skill of the Dark Knight? Completely ignoring both energy defenses and physical defenses, attacking the soul directly, that's terrifying!
Thanks to the Ninth Grade Dragon Creation Stone, Yi Luo Xiang no longer needed to develop abilities in the Slavery System, so...she focused her efforts on the attack series of the Soul System.
In her previous life, at the Crystal Stage, Yi Luo should have comprehended the temporary control of a Wild Giant Dragon's soul manipulation. But now, Yi Luo had already mastered Soul Enslavement, so naturally there was no need to go in that direction. Hence...after Soul Chain, Soul Impact, and Soul Lash, what Yi Luo Xiang at the Crystal Stage comprehended was Soul Severing!
Besides directly causing damage to the soul, Soul Severing could also result in different effects based on the location of the severance, leading to the loss of the five senses.
The so-called five senses naturally refer to sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. Soul Severing didn't directly sever these senses but cut the continuity between them and the soul. Once severed, the body's five senses could not transmit to the soul, thus becoming imperceptible.
Silently looking at Yi Luo Xiang, Xin Yun simply did not know how to think anymore. This Soul Severing was just too dreadful. In her last life, if Yi Luo hadn't shifted focus to Slavery System abilities while at the Crystal Stage, she might have become the number one expert of the era, surpassing even Po Kong!
Soul Severing, directly cutting the opponent's soul, and can cause loss of the five senses depending on where it cuts. After five strikes, the five senses would completely disappear. How would one fight like that?

Everything before you is pitch-black, you can't hear any sound, your nose can't smell, and even the sensation of the wind on your skin is gone. In such a state, how do you attack? How do you defend!
Of course, nothing is absolute. Yi Luo Xiang's Soul Severing is indeed powerful, but the loss of the five senses is not permanent and can be recovered. The greater the disparity in strength, the quicker the recovery. With Yi Luo Xiang's current strength, to make a Diamond Stage expert lose the five senses for even a second would be a feat, anything more would be impossible.
However, if faced with equal-ranked opponents, it's a different story. Once cut, it is impossible to recover within ten seconds. If struck by five consecutive blows, one might as well wait for death.
It's worth mentioning that Yi Luo Xiang's Soul Severing did not overlap with her previous battle skills. Soul Chain was used for binding, Soul Impact could shock the soul, causing a temporary loss of control over the body, leading to a paralyzed state. Soul Lash could paralyze the soul in a state akin to an electric shock, also inducing paralysis.
As for Soul Severing, it's more about launching a direct attack on the soul, belonging to the attack series of the Soul System, damaging the opponent's soul while severing their five senses. If Yi Luo Xiang's strength is much higher than the opponent's, she could even permanently sever their senses, leaving them unable to recover ever again. From this, you could see how terrifying Soul Severing is.
Admiringly glancing at Yi Luo Xiang, Xin Yun turned his head and asked the other three, "How about you three, have you found your way yet?"
Upon hearing Xin Yun's words, Yan Qingying replied with a wry smile, "How easy can it be? I've just groped my way to a path, but I don't even know if it's the right one. It might well be wrong, sigh..."
No sooner had Yan Qingying finished speaking than Ming Xuan chimed in, "You're doing pretty well. I haven't even found the way yet. I've just stabilized my realm and am about to start searching for the path."
"Sigh..." With a long sigh, Luo Fu spoke last, "I'm afraid it's impossible for me to break through in a short period of time. After all...the barriers at the Diamond Stage are the biggest and there are many directions to take. I'm not just seeking a breakthrough but the strongest breakthrough, so it may take a very long time."
Upon hearing Luo Fu's words, Xin Yun nodded in understanding. Indeed...the Diamond Stage was crucial, and one shouldn't make hasty decisions. One must know...every breakthrough actually has many choices to make. But it's worth mentioning that the most powerful breakthrough has only one path!
Take Yi Luo Xiang for example, when breaking through to the Crystal Stage, she had many options. She could choose the direction of Soul Enslavement or the attack direction of Soul Severing. In her past life, she chose the Slavery System, but in this life, she chose to attack!
After confirming their respective realms, Xin Yun took his seat and began to discuss the next course of action. After more than three hours of discussion, they came to a conclusion. Xin Yun, Yi Luo Xiang, and Yan Qingying would return to the academy to continue studying, while Ming Xuan and Luo Fu chose to stay here and would not leave until they successfully broke through to the new realm.
After making arrangements, Ming Xuan and Luo Fu returned to the secret chamber to close off again, while Xin Yun, Yi Luo Xiang, and Yan Qingying rushed to Shoushan to meet Mad Dragon Tie Zhan and understand the current situation.
From Mad Dragon Tie Zhan, the trio of Xin Yun learned about the current situation of Dragon Gate in the outside world. With Shoushan as the center, all cities within a radius of 1.8 million li had been brought under control. The reason for the 1.8 million li was that this distance was right on the limit of space folding by the Taiji Diagram. No matter where an incident occurred, Mad Dragon Tie Zhan could arrive instantly. As long as he was stationed at Shoushan, all cities could be simultaneously defended.
