Qin Yueyao suddenly swung the Sun Destroying Divine Blade in her hand. The cold qi emanating from the blade instantly condensed the surrounding air into ice.
Terrifying blade qi, accompanied by a piercing sound of breaking wind, echoed in the air like cracking ice and collapsing snow.
Vulture Protector felt waves of oppressive force in this icy aura. In this ice and snow, his movements seemed to become sluggish, and he secretly thought it was bad.
The momentum of this Dou Skill was too powerful, as if it could freeze people in this world of ice and snow.
At this moment, Vulture Protector realized that the person he was fighting actually possessed the terrifying strength of a five-star Dou Grandmaster.
"Three-Stage Soul Lock!"
Vulture Protector roared, shaking his arm. Three black shadows, accompanied by clattering sounds, burst out from behind him, quickly transforming into three venomous snakes.
As his hand seal changed, his black-mist-covered palm suddenly extended, and these three chains immediately shot out with a whistling sound of wind.
The three chains turned into black lines, interlacing rapidly, just enough to block all of Qin Yueyao's blade qi.
Clearly, this Vulture Protector had reached an extremely proficient level with such a peculiar weapon as chains.
However, although Qin Yueyao's Dou Skill was a move from the Heaven Rank high-level, it was also extraordinary.
The incomparably powerful blade qi, carrying the momentum of breaking ice and splitting stone, instantly severed the black chains, and swiftly and sharply went straight for Vulture Protector's vital points.
Vulture Protector's face changed drastically. To think how powerful his soul chains were, having withstood countless terrifying Dou Skills.
Who knows how many Dou Kings and Dou Emperors had fallen under these soul chains, and today they were actually shattered directly!
In a blink of an eye, it was too late for Vulture Protector to dodge. He could only endure this blow head-on.
He gritted his teeth, and the Dou Qi within his body surged frantically, forming a solid, inky black barrier.
However, how powerful was a five-star Dou Grandmaster's Dou Skill? Even with full defense, Vulture Protector found it hard to resist.
The blade qi heavily struck the sinister black mist barrier in front of Vulture Protector, producing a deafening roar. The barrier instantly collapsed, and Vulture Protector was then heavily sent flying by the blade qi.
The icy ice-attribute freezing qi invaded. Even as a soul body, Vulture Protector couldn't help but spit out a pale white mist, saying painfully: "Freezing qi enters the body!"
At this moment, he somewhat understood what Yun Shan must have felt at the time.
At the same time, the Centipede Cliff puppet closely pursued Protector Xuan, its iron fist drawing a black trajectory in mid-air.
Although extremely simple, it was a very fitting Dou Skill for a puppet: Eight Extremities Sky Breaker.
As the iron fist swung out, a powerful energy suddenly released, transforming into a dark green light beam, charging straight ahead, tearing through the sky.
Its immense power immediately caused space to tremble, showing signs of collapse.
As the Three Paths Gu poison spread, Protector Xuan's current strength was less than two or three tenths of his usual power, let alone enough to block this Dou Skill, which was comparable to Heaven Rank power.
Under the dark green light beam, which was as fast as thunder, Protector Xuan's figure had not yet managed to dodge before, with a 'hum' sound, he was instantly pierced through.
Powerful energy erupted, and Protector Xuan's body instantly became illusory at a visible speed.
The Centipede Cliff puppet flashed, and its palm, holding potent Three Paths Gu poison, slapped towards the top of Protector Xuan's head, compressing this soul body into a ball.
Xiao Yan smiled triumphantly. This Soul Hall Protector had great use.
Whether it was for imbuing puppets with spirits, or absorbing and nourishing souls to accelerate the growth of soul power, it was extremely rare.
Seeing that the two great protectors were severely injured, Silver Protector's eyes narrowed: "I can't observe any longer. These two people from the Xiao Clan are so difficult to deal with. If there are still stronger experts within their clan, we will need some assistance."
Just as Xiao Yan was about to receive the Soul Hall soul body sent back by the Centipede Cliff puppet, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
If the Soul Hall branch in this region were to really respond to Vulture Protector's plea for help, why would they send two protectors of the same rank as him? Who would lead whom?
If there were disagreements between them, wouldn't it cause internal chaos?
Just then, Xiao Yan's powerful soul force suddenly detected a rapidly approaching danger from behind.
"Pure Yang One Qi!" Xiao Yan made a decisive move, suddenly turning around. The Dou Qi, ready to be unleashed in his palm, fiercely slammed out.
The pure, fierce, and boundless palm power, earth-shatteringly struck the eerie black shadow that had appeared silently.
The mist around this black shadow was thicker than dark ink, and far denser than the mist of the three great protectors, like an ominous qi rising from the Nine Nether Abyss, sending shivers down one's spine.
The black shadow's body trembled slightly, and countless chains burst out from the black mist. These chains were as eerie as ghosts, twisting and rolling in the air, as if mocking everything around them.
With the appearance of these chains, the sky above the Cloud Mist Sect was immediately enveloped by an even deeper black curtain, plunging into gloom and silence.
And the scarlet eyes in the black mist were like two burning flames, emitting a terrifying aura.
They seemed to be the eyes of the grim reaper, coldly staring at this world, making people afraid to meet their gaze.
At this moment, the Cloud Mist Sect seemed to be enveloped by an invisible fear, and the air seemed to have solidified.
All the disciples and elders subconsciously became cautious in their breathing, afraid of attracting the black shadow's attention.
The inky black chains collided with the brilliant golden palm qi. After only a slight pause, they continued to charge towards Xiao Yan without losing speed.
"What a strange palm technique, it can actually restrain my Soul Hall Protector! However, this is as far as it goes." Silver Protector let out a 'hehe' laugh, like a hungry ghost preying, staring intently at Xiao Yan.
"Xiao Yan!" Yun Yun never expected that there was still an old ghost hidden, and his strength seemed even more terrifying.
In a panic, Yun Yun instinctively hugged Xiao Yan tightly. If they were going to die, then they would die together.
"A Soul Hall person whose main body strength is already an eight-star Dou Grandmaster!" Xiao Yan was not flustered at all. With a single grip, a gleaming blue light flowed, and the Plow Spirit Sword instantly condensed.
To deal with such a terrifying existence, he still had to use the Soul Hall's nemesis, the 'Plow Spirit Sword'.
His soul realm needed these Soul Hall soul bodies to accelerate his cultivation speed.
"Silver Protector, you finally appeared." Seeing the appearance of this terrifying mist, Yun Shan, however, did not show the panic of the sect members; instead, he was extremely excited.
The presence of this individual, who was the strongest among those who came from the Soul Hall, would surely be able to turn the tide.
"Don't hurt my son!" Qin Yueyao, who was originally going to help the Scorpion Mountain puppet, seeing Xiao Yan in trouble, immediately abandoned that Soul Hall Protector. Her figure moved, flying towards Xiao Yan's direction like a meteor chasing the moon.
Seeing Qin Yueyao rushing over, Silver Protector let out a sinister 'hehe' laugh.
