As soon as Li Xuan finished speaking, the sword slowly emerged from his hand. At first, the sword only emitted a faint light, but as it gradually appeared, the atmosphere in the entire Xuanming Forbidden Zone instantly became more oppressive, as if an invisible force was pressing down on everyone.

In an instant, a cold light began to emanate from the sword. At first, the light spread like a gentle stream, but then it swept out in all directions like a surging tide.

Wherever the light passed, space itself distorted slightly, as if unable to withstand the impact of this power, faintly emitting a low humming sound, as if the entire world was trembling.

At that moment, an even more terrifying phenomenon appeared. One by one, illusory soul images began to emerge from the sword. They were of various shapes and sizes; some were baring their fangs and claws, their faces ferocious, as if filled with endless resentment.

Some were twisted in shape, exuding a chilling aura of death, their empty eye sockets seemingly still holding the pain and resentment of their lives.

The number of these souls was countless, densely covering the sword's blade. They struggled and writhed incessantly, emitting mournful howls. The combined sounds resembled the roars of demons from the deepest hell, assaulting the eardrums of everyone present, shaking their minds and driving them to the brink of madness.

Among them, several souls were particularly terrifying in appearance. One was a tall soul, emanating black mist from its body. Within the mist, one could vaguely see some broken limbs and blurry human faces, as if it were formed from countless wronged souls.

It opened its blood-red maw and spewed out streams of black breath. The breath touched the surrounding air and instantly corroded it, creating black holes that hissed and emitted a pungent smell.

There was also a soul that resembled a woman, dressed in a tattered white robe, with long hair that danced like snakes, covering most of her face. But the one eye that was exposed was flowing with tears of blood. The tears of blood dripped onto the sword and turned into wisps of dark red flames, burning and leaping as if they wanted to burn everything in the world to ashes.

The aura of these souls was far more powerful than imagined. The pressure emanating from each soul was enough to make an ordinary cultivator collapse to the ground on the spot, losing all ability to resist.

At this moment, thousands upon thousands of them gathered on this sword, and the terrifying aura that accumulated was like a surging tsunami, sweeping towards the supreme beings present. They felt as if towering mountains were pressing down on them, making it extremely difficult to breathe, and their bodies involuntarily slumped to the ground.

The supreme being who had used his escape technique to hide in the void was already slumped on the ground. Now, he was even more terrified by this strange phenomenon, his face turning ashen. The look of horror in his eyes was so intense that it seemed to be overflowing from his eye sockets.

His eyes widened as he stared intently at the sword, his body involuntarily shrinking back, his hands frantically grabbing at the ground, trying to get away from the sword, but his body seemed to be nailed to the spot, unable to move at all.

"What...what kind of sword is this? How can it be so terrifying? These souls...where did they come from? It's too scary, too scary!" His voice trembled violently, filled with fear and awe at the sword. In his heart, Li Xuan was like the King of Hell who controlled life and death, and this sword was the weapon that snatched away souls and took lives, plunging him into the abyss of despair.

Monster, old monster!

Emperor Taixuan is definitely an old monster!

He even felt that many of these souls and beings were no weaker than him!

The supreme being standing on the spirit boat had his expression completely frozen. His lips trembled, but he couldn't utter a sound. He stared blankly at the sword, as if his soul had been ripped away.

His prized spirit boat appeared so small in the face of the terrifying aura emanating from the sword. Its dull hull trembled violently, as if it too sensed the deadly threat.

The last glimmer of hope that had remained in his heart had vanished, replaced by a profound despair. He knew that facing Li Xuan and that terrifying sword, they had no chance of escape; death was perhaps the only path awaiting them. The Supreme One, who had used the Blood Escape Technique, had already left the boulder, and was now prostrate on the ground, trembling in an extremely humble posture.

His eyes were filled with tears of regret, but he didn't bother to wipe them away. He just stared wide-eyed in horror at the strange spiritual image on the sword.

The aura emanating from those souls made him feel as if he were surrounded by mountains of corpses and seas of blood. The pungent smell of blood and the aura of death constantly assaulted his senses, bringing him to the brink of collapse.

"I...I was so blind! How could I have provoked such an existence? This...this is something we can't possibly contend with! It's over, everything is over..." He cried out in despair in his heart. His fear of Li Xuan had penetrated to the bone, and he could no longer muster even the slightest thought of resistance.

The supreme being who rushed into the spatial rift and used the spatial turbulence to escape was in even worse shape. He was constantly foaming at the mouth, his eyes were unfocused, and he was muttering incoherent words of begging for mercy. His body was trembling violently like a leaf.

The wounds on his body, inflicted by the spatial turbulence, gushed blood even more violently under the pressure of this terrifying aura, but he was completely unaware of it. His mind was completely consumed by fear, and he had fallen into a dazed state.

In his eyes, this sword was the blade of judgment from hell, and those souls were the Grim Reaper who came to reap their lives. They could only wait for death to come in this endless fear, powerless to fight back.

The other supreme beings were in no better shape. Those who had been burying their heads in their hands and weeping suddenly stopped crying, as if an invisible hand had grabbed their throats. Their faces were filled with fear and despair as they stared blankly at the sword, their bodies stiff as stone sculptures.

Those supreme beings who had been frozen in shock finally regained a glimmer of light in their eyes, a light filled with terror. Their bodies trembled uncontrollably as they tried to escape this horrible place, but their legs were as weak as noodles, unable to move an inch. They could only pray frantically in their hearts, hoping that all of this was just a nightmare and that they could wake up from this terrible nightmare soon.

Emperor Yun was also filled with terror. Although he had long been aware of Li Xuan's power, the terrifying phenomenon displayed by the sword before him was far beyond his imagination.

He curled up to the side, trying to minimize his presence, but his gaze remained fixed on the sword, and his awe of Li Xuan deepened.

"This...this terrifying sword, what secrets does it contain? The master's strength is truly unfathomable. I...I'm afraid I'll never be able to reach it in this lifetime..." Emperor Yun thought to himself. At this moment, he no longer had any dissatisfaction or other thoughts towards Li Xuan. All he felt was awe and obedience to absolute power. He knew that his life and death were completely in Li Xuan's hands.

The entire Xuanming Forbidden Zone was deathly silent at this moment, with only the roar of the soul on the sword and the heavy, trembling breaths of the supreme beings intertwined. The oppressive and terrifying atmosphere made it seem as if this place had become a living hell, making people feel as if they were in the apocalypse, without seeing a trace of life or hope.

Li Xuan held the sword and slowly took a step forward. This step seemed light, but it was as if it had stepped on the heart of everyone, making their hearts skip a beat.

"Don't rush, it's an honor for you to be able to enter this sword."

Li Xuan said lightly.

The sword moved silently, and in an instant, all the supreme beings perished and vanished, entering the sword.
