Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled
Chapter 541 - 537: Slaying Ten Main Gods with a Single Sword
Although he didn’t transform the God-Burying Bell to its original size, Xia Feng still didn’t dare to underestimate it.
His divine soul directly activated the Nine Sounds of God Burial, an ancient divine technique, sending wave after wave of spiritual power crashing into the God-Burying Bell in his hand, striking nine times.
After these nine strikes, his entire spiritual power was almost exhausted.
If Xia Feng hadn’t bitten his tongue and quickly stuffed several Essence Supplement Pills into his mouth, he might not have been able to participate in the attack that followed.
Li Ya’s eyebrows slightly furrowed as she spoke thoughtfully, "Is this a soul attack divine technique?"
"This kid certainly has many good things, but he’s a bit too reckless. This attack strength is clearly exceptionally strong, yet his cultivation is not enough to fully utilize the true ability of these nine sounds."
She touched the divine sword in her hand, and an inexplicable battle intent arose within her: "If he were to raise his cultivation a bit higher, no... even if his spiritual power became denser, he wouldn’t experience depletion." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Li Qingxue also showed a hint of worry: "It’s been just a short time since my husband mastered this skill. This is the first time he’s used it."
"They face ten Ninth Grade Main Gods. Without going all out, how could they have such an effective attack?"
Li Qingxue’s words were true. The ten main gods were forced several steps back by this wave of attacks.
The Infinite Divine Domain is relatively remote, the eleventh divine domain, where the heritage is extremely sparse and dominated by the Four Great Clans.
These main gods had rarely heard of soul attacks before, and they certainly didn’t know how to counter such attacks.
Almost as soon as the first strike sounded, their divine souls began to experience unstable fluctuations.
After the nine strikes, the divine souls of all ten had suffered irreversible soul damage.
This terrified the main gods. Though they didn’t know how to perform soul attacks, they understood the importance of their divine souls.
The cultivator’s cultivation and the strength of the divine soul complement each other. If the divine soul is severely damaged, the path of cultivation is practically broken.
These were Ninth Grade Main Gods, potentially never to break through to the Divine King Realm, or possibly on the brink of breaking through at any time.
The difference in treatment between a Divine King and a Main God is vast. Once they realized their divine souls were damaged, they became more anxious than ever.
Xia Feng, seizing the moment in their panic and neglect, brought forth the Heaven-Burying Sword and slashed directly at them.
The Heaven-Burying Divine Technique contains many attacking sword techniques, and Xia Feng used the strongest move he could perform, channeling all the Ninth Grade True God Realm cultivation into one strike against the ten before him.
Bear in mind, Xia Feng’s Ninth Grade True God status is not ordinary; he possesses ten divine fire platforms, his divine power reserve originally ten times greater than others.
Besides, supplemented with demonic qi and star power, this strike almost rivaled the sword shadow Li Ya displayed when she first descended to the lower realm.
The ten before him were still contemplating their divine souls, unable to react to Xia Feng’s attack.
They thought it was just a Ninth Grade True God’s sword technique, unable to compare to the Celestial Sword Divine King’s...
When the sword fell, the careless ten main gods were entirely consumed by that sword technique, becoming nothingness.
Now they no longer need to worry about whether they can continue cultivating after their divine soul was damaged, becoming nothingness, detached from such concerns.
Li Ya witnessed Xia Feng using a sword technique for the first time, and after seeing him wield this sword, the sword qi around her soared involuntarily, and her prior, vague battle intent intensified.
"Good lad, this divine technique he’s cultivating sure is powerful."
Li Ya had good perception, quickly noticing the divine technique was much stronger than her family’s Holy Sword Technique. Unfortunately, she didn’t know from where Xia Feng acquired this divine technique. Even if she wanted to learn it, she’d have to consider whether Xia Feng was willing to teach her.
Thinking of this, she looked thoughtfully at Li Qingxue beside her: "Girl, has this kid taught you his sword technique?"
Li Qingxue didn’t understand why her mother was asking this but answered truthfully: "When my husband first acquired this divine technique, he discussed it with me."
"But the cultivation techniques inside are too difficult. My foundation is relatively shallow, making it hard to truly grasp the Great Dao within."
"Additionally, I don’t have the Heaven-Burying Sword, nor have I cultivated so many Great Daos. The attack power when using that sword technique is only slightly stronger than the Holy Sword Technique, but the cost is too high."
"So after practicing for a while, I couldn’t keep up with my husband’s pace."
She paused with a bit more distress: "Though my husband occasionally continues teaching me bits, I honestly find it challenging to comprehend."
Li Ya observed Li Qingxue’s expression, realizing she wasn’t lying, feeling somewhat disappointed yet her curiosity about the Heaven-Burying Divine Technique diminished.
If there were so many restrictions, learning this divine technique might not be necessary; having the chance to spar with Xia Feng once or twice would suffice.
Li Ya carefreely remarked, "This kid has learned many divine techniques, yet his foundations are still unstable."
"Even his sword-wielding posture is not quite standard. Now it’s like he’s attacking with brute force, somewhat wasting his great talent."
Li Qingxue’s brows furrowed too, having noticed this earlier as well, that Xia Feng’s grasp of ordinary sword techniques was too limited to use a sword effectively.
Seeing her worried expression, Li Ya couldn’t help but cluck her tongue lightly: "Alright, achieving what he has at his age is already unprecedented and unparalleled; I don’t have to be so harsh on him."
Li Ya said as she dispelled the sound barrier in front of her, releasing the sword qi prison that confined Dongfang Changming.
At this moment, Xia Feng seemed slightly exhausted, but his expression betrayed not a hint of it.
Dongfang Changming’s appearance was grim, his expression so dark it seemed about to drip, turning with apprehension towards Xia Feng.
It was hateful that Li Ya was present today, and he had no way to act directly against this kid, otherwise...
Thinking of this, unwillingness filled him as he turned to Li Ya: "Celestial Sword Divine King, I was previously rash and inadvertently offended your esteemed daughter."
"Now, since Goddess Qingxue has your protection, I certainly won’t target her again."
Li Ya slightly raised an eyebrow, having anticipated what Dongfang Changming might say.
Sure enough, with a vengeful glance at Xia Feng, he continued: "Divine King, this kid has no relation to you, and if I wish to do away with him..."
