Chapter 2403 Ancient Thunder Roc True Soul, Killed
In the void, a man at the late-stage Golden Immortal realm stood proudly.
His body was enveloped in a terrifying interplay of lightning and ghostly energy.
This scene immediately shocked Chen Xuan.
"A dead soul? But why does a dead soul possess such terrifying power of lightning?"
"Isn't the power of lightning supposed to be mutually restraining with ghostly energy? Why can it emerge simultaneously in this person?"
A series of questions kept surfacing in Chen Xuan's mind.
At that moment, Chen Xuan's mind raced, but he still couldn't find the answer.
The situation before him seemed to be beyond Chen Xuan's comprehension.
"Hmph! You dare to kill one of my men? You've got some nerve!"
The man's cold voice suddenly rang out, like a thunderclap, startling everyone into a fright.
Chen Peng and the other demonic beasts dared not continue their attack.
They appeared rapidly around Chen Xuan.
The swarms of gold-eating insects and the army of iron-tailed scorpions also retreated swiftly.
The army of the dead fell completely silent at that moment.
It was as if they didn't dare to even breathe loudly.
All of this was due to the appearance of the man who had reached the late-stage Great Perfection of the Golden Immortal realm.
"Chen Peng, have you noticed anything? This guy is too strange. He's clearly a ghost, yet terrifying lightning power is surging from his body. It doesn't make sense!"
Chen Xuan's lips moved slightly as he transmitted his voice to Chen Peng.
After all, among everyone present, only Chen Peng had the ability to control the power of lightning.
"Master, I feel that the aura emanating from this person is somewhat similar to mine!"
"This... could it be an elder of your Thunder Roc clan?"
Chen Xuan frowned slightly.
A look of surprise then appeared on his face.
Chen Xuan was unsure whether the Lei Peng clan had participated in the Immortal-Demon Array in ancient times.
Chen Xuan couldn't be sure whether the undead soul before him, capable of manipulating the power of lightning, was truly a member of the Lei Peng clan.
But one thing is certain: at this moment, he has completely placed himself on the opposite side of everyone else.
If they don't eliminate it, Chen Xuan and the others will have no way to leave safely.
"Interesting. Fellow Daoist, your cultivation level isn't high, but you certainly have quite a few tricks up your sleeve!"
"So many descendants of ancient spirits are completely devoted to you."
"I am quite curious, what exactly is your relationship with that person?"
The man's gaze swept over Chen Xuan and the others.
Seeing that Chen Xuan was only at the early stage of Golden Immortal, yet had a large number of demonic beasts assisting him, they immediately became extremely curious.
"Who is that?" Chen Xuan asked, puzzled.
"Heh, you received his legacy, yet you don't know who he is? Don't you find that laughable? Back then, although we weren't on the same side as him, we were still allies, weren't we? That madman, single-handedly, almost turned the tide of the battle. Moreover, he killed two Demon Ancestors of the Demon Clan. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have become complete ghosts, unable to find peace for the rest of our lives."
At this point, the man became increasingly agitated.
He wished he could rush over right now and tear Chen Xuan to pieces.
Upon seeing this, Chen Xuan suddenly realized: "Are you referring to the Beast Taming Dao Ancestor?"
"Heh heh, it's him!"
The man sneered.
Looking at Chen Xuan's expression, it became very unfriendly.
"Back then, I was naturally not qualified to fight him. But now that I have encountered his successor, I would like to see just how powerful his legacy truly is!"
"die!"
The man grinned menacingly.
As he spoke, he made a grabbing motion in mid-air.
A lightning spear, as thick as a bowl, shot directly towards Chen Xuan.
Upon seeing this, the expressions of the demons and beasts changed drastically.
Just as they were about to intervene, Chen Xuan forcibly took them into the Immortal Beast Tower.
The next moment, without any hesitation, Chen Xuan took out the Kuntu and the pseudo Xuanwu diagram.
Wow!
The immortal power in Chen Xuan's dantian was frantically poured into the pseudo Xuanwu diagram.
In just a short while, the fake Xuanwu diagram was completely opened.
An ancient dragon turtle, hundreds of feet in size, stood in front of Chen Xuan like a small mountain.
At this moment, the incoming lightning spear attack was completely blocked by the Primordial Dragon Turtle.
boom!
Wow!
Click!
A piercing explosion suddenly rang out from the void.
The Primordial Dragon Turtle completely blocked the attack.
The raging power of lightning rules swept through the area.
But the ancient dragon turtle remained quietly lying motionless in the void.
However, the light emanating from the Primordial Dragon Turtle gradually dimmed considerably.
"A fake Xuanwu diagram? You really are a descendant of the Beast Taming Ancestor. Haha..."
The man laughed maniacally.
The next instant, a series of crackling thunderous sounds rang out from his body.
Soon, a bolt of lightning, as thick as a bowl, rapidly emerged from the sky.
Almost simultaneously, a pair of enormous wings appeared in mid-air behind the man.
The moment its wings spread, lightning surged forth.
Its area is several tens of feet in size.
"die!"
With a roar, the man unleashed two golden bolts of lightning, each as thick as a bowl, as they rapidly flapped their wings and struck Chen Xuan directly.
But at this time, Chen Xuan did not dare to be careless.
All they could do was desperately pour their immortal power into the pseudo-Xuanwu diagram.
That fake Xuanwu diagram, which resembled a small mountain, was Chen Xuan's only lifeline at this moment.
The violent power of lightning rules continuously struck it, but it could not pose any threat to the pseudo Xuanwu Diagram.
A violent aura continuously emanated from the Xuanwu diagram.
The light kept dimming.
However, all the power of the lightning rules was completely blocked by the pseudo Xuanwu diagram.
Not a single drop fell on Chen Xuan.
This made Chen Xuan, who was activating the pseudo-Xuanwu Diagram, immediately breathe a sigh of relief.
"Such powerful lightning elemental forces! It's a pity they can't destroy the pseudo-Black Tortoise Diagram. If that's the case, there's no need for me to continue passively taking hits!"
Chen Xuan gave a cold laugh as he finished speaking.
The next instant, he pointed his finger in the air, and a powerful surge of immortal energy landed directly on Kuntu.
Wow!
As Kuntu slowly opened, the old man of Kuntu appeared in the void.
Before the old man Kuntu could even make a move, the man's expression changed drastically.
"This is Kuntu? Wait, something's not right!"
"If this is the real Kuntu, its power is far greater than this. A single glance from him would be enough to kill me."
"If I'm not mistaken, this Kunlun painting is merely a facade!"
"Haha, since that's the case, let me experience the power of Kuntu!"
The man let out a ferocious laugh.
The next instant, as his enormous wings flapped rapidly on his back, he soared into the sky with a thunderous roar.
Soon, Chen Xuan felt the light in the void above his head suddenly dim considerably.
Suddenly, a thunder roc, thousands of feet in size, appeared above Chen Xuan's head.
Those enormous wings seemed to cover the entire void.
The terrifying power of lightning on it seemed capable of destroying the entire world at any moment.
The terrifying pressure sent chills down Chen Xuan's spine.
"This is... the ancient Thunder Roc array spirit?"
Chen Xuan's expression turned extremely ugly.
He never expected that the man in front of him was not only a powerful expert at the late stage of the Golden Immortal realm, but also the true soul of the ancient Thunder Roc.
Their combat power was so great that he simply couldn't withstand it.
"Haha... Die!"
The man laughed maniacally.
With a flap of its wings, the violent power of lightning rules formed golden lightning pillars as thick as bowls, which crashed down towards where Chen Xuan was.
Upon seeing this, Chen Xuan's pupils contracted sharply. He was terrified and desperately activated the Kuntu.
hum!
The Dragon-Seeking Sword in his dantian hummed softly and was directly grasped by the old man Kuntu.
Almost simultaneously, the Free and Unfettered Sword Intent, the Fivefold Sword Bone, the Five Elements Dao Source Pearl, and other elements within Chen Xuan's body were all activated.
Various terrifying offensive forces were frantically poured into the Dragon-Seeking Sword.
In that instant, Chen Xuan clearly saw that the size of the Dragon-Seeking Sword was constantly increasing.
The aura emanating from it suddenly surged at this moment.
"So powerful! I wonder if this attack can kill the ancient Thunder Roc's true soul!"
Chen Xuan looked solemn.
In the void, the old man Kuntu, who was activating the Dragon-Seeking Sword, remained calm.
Before the terrifying pillar of lightning in the void could fall, he immediately slashed out with the Dragon-Seeking Sword in his hand.
boom!
Where the sword points, the void shatters.
The ferocious attack swept across the void, instantly severing the lightning bolts descending from the sky.
At that moment, Chen Xuan suddenly felt that the sense of crisis that had given him the creeps had vanished in an instant.
"This……"
Chen Xuan had no idea just how profound Kuntu's attack was.
But he could see that the old man Kuntu's casual strike had actually shattered the void.
The void before them was completely divided into two worlds.
The ancient Thunder Roc's true soul needed to traverse two worlds to unleash the power of lightning rules and kill Chen Xuan.
This kind of method is something that ordinary strong people simply cannot do.
At this moment, the ancient Thunder Roc's true soul also seemed to have sensed that something was wrong.
Before Elder Kuntu could make a move against him, the Ancient Thunder Roc True Soul flapped its wings swiftly, accompanied by a terrifying thunderous roar, and fled rapidly into the distance.
Upon seeing this, the old man Kuntu narrowed his eyes slightly.
He swung the Dragon-Seeking Sword in his hand repeatedly.
boom!
With a single sword strike, he shattered the void in front of the ancient Thunder Roc's true soul.
It severed the escape route of the ancient Thunder Roc's true soul.
At this, the ancient Thunder Roc's true soul was immediately shocked.
Just as they were about to turn around and change direction, the old man Kuntu made his move again.
boom!
With this sword strike, both wings of the ancient Thunder Roc's true soul were severed in one fell swoop.
It then fell to the ground at high speed.
The ancient Thunder Roc's true soul, having lost its wings, not only suffered a significant reduction in speed, but its aura also began to decline.
But at this moment, the old man Kuntu did not stop.
The Dragon-Seeking Sword in his hand slashed out again, landing directly on the ancient Thunder Roc's true soul.
puff!
The ancient Thunder Roc's true soul was killed on the spot without even letting out a scream.
The raging power of lightning and other laws dissipated completely at this moment.
There was only a single soul bead, about the size of a fist, silently floating in the void.
The Soul Orb emanated an exceptionally terrifying, raging power of lightning.
The ghostly and malevolent energy within a radius of over a hundred feet dared not approach easily.
The nearby dead were also caught in the crossfire when Elder Kuntu made his move.
Without exception, they all perished.
Upon seeing this, Chen Xuan's expression became one of utter shock.
"So easily, he killed the ancient Thunder Roc's true soul? It seems that Kuntu's power has increased quite a bit since then!"
As soon as Chen Xuan finished speaking, a feeling of weakness suddenly surged from his body.
Chen Xuan dared not be careless and quickly examined his own body.
It was discovered that the immortal power in his dantian had long been exhausted.
Even the essence and blood in the body have been greatly depleted.
This made Chen Xuan's expression turn extremely ugly.
"Kuntu's attacks are powerful, but the energy consumption is also terrifying."
"This time, not only was the immortal power in my dantian exhausted, but a lot of my essence blood was also consumed."
"Next, I need to hurry up and find a place to retreat and recover!"
As Chen Xuan spoke, he released Chen Peng and other demonic beasts to protect him as they fled at high speed.
