Yuantian Pidao

Chapter 497 Soul Destruction and Death
Beyond the Yin Earth, clouds and mist swirl, and towering mountains stand, suppressing all directions.

Within the sea of ​​mist, the dragon's body stretched out, displaying the true dragon's might.

"Cold and gloomy, soul-damaging, is it some kind of spiritual fire containing the power of Yin? It's truly rare."

As Jiang Chen retracted his dragon claw, a strange light flashed in his dragon eyes as he looked at the icy blue spiritual fire swirling around it. The power of Taiyin was quite mysterious, and the means to master such power were always rare.

"It seems you had some background in your past life as well."

With a surge of qi, Jiang Chen casually extinguished the spiritual fire on the dragon's claws. His gaze fell, and he looked at the fox demon.

Although this third-tier spiritual fire was troublesome, his true dragon body was sturdy, and with the support of his protective aura, he was not afraid at all. In the end, the fox demon was no longer the Purple Mansion Demon King he once was, and the power that the third-tier spiritual fire could display in his hands was still limited.

As the fox spirit took in all the changes, his heart sank. This true dragon, which had appeared out of nowhere, had not reached the Purple Mansion realm, but its physique was incredibly strong. Ordinary spells probably wouldn't even be able to harm it.

"Cold Moon Foxfire is already one of my most powerful techniques, but this true dragon isn't even afraid of it. Things are really getting complicated."

"Well, things have come to this point, there's no way to resolve this peacefully, we have no choice but to take a risk."

With a single thought, all hesitation in his heart was cut off, and the fox demon took the initiative to attack.

At this moment, the Yin energy surged everywhere, and the alchemy furnace hidden in the third layer of Yin soil was summoned. It transformed into a Yin pill and swallowed it. In that instant, the spiritual power in its body boiled, and its strength was raised to a whole level. The fox tail behind it split and directly transformed into three tails.

"kill!"

With sharp claws and teeth, and crouching like a dog, the fox demon swung its tail.

In that instant, its fox tail grew rapidly, coiled with foxfire, and instantly attacked Jiang Chen. Wherever it passed, the void was disturbed, and waves like water were stirred up, bursting forth with extreme force. The power of its attack had truly reached the Purple Mansion.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen's expression remained completely unmoved.

With a whoosh, Jiang Chen exhaled a breath of qi. As he made a thought, the qi surged, and Jiang Chen's true dragon body was instantly covered with a special armor. From a distance, it looked as if it was surrounded by a layer of clouds and mist, making it appear even more ethereal.

Bang bang bang! The fox's might, carrying spiritual fire, stirred up the void, displaying considerable power. However, it was no match for Jiang Chen, who was protected by protective qi.

After several attacks, the fox demon managed to break through Jiang Chen's defenses, but its true energy was like flowing clouds and mist, quickly filling the gaps again. After a series of attacks, the fox demon not only failed to truly harm Jiang Chen, but also made its own momentum somewhat unstable.

Seeing this scene, a resolute look flashed in the fox demon's eyes.

As a ghost transformed from the remnant soul of a Purple Mansion Demon King, its power is mainly composed of two parts: one is the legacy of its previous life, such as the Cold Moon Foxfire and the alchemy, and the other is the power derived after it became a ghost.

Compared to the later ones, the former is undoubtedly more systematic and is also its commonly used method, but that does not mean the latter is weak. In fact, compared to the previous methods, the power it gained after transforming into a ghost is even more ferocious.

"I just need one chance."

With a thought in mind, the fox spirit disregarded its own depletion and once again activated the Cold Moon Foxfire. At this moment, the Cold Moon Foxfire rose up, and a waning moon was faintly reflected in it.

"Success or failure hinges on this moment; the cold fox devours the moon."

Gathering all its strength, the fox spirit ignited the Cold Moon Foxfire.

In that instant, flames surged like waves, filling the void, and a blurry moon fox materialized from within, opening its mouth to bite at Jiang Chen, attempting to devour the dragon with its fox body.

Faced with the Moon Fox's bite, Jiang Chen's protective aura was completely torn apart for the first time. In an instant, a tidal wave of foxfire swept in, completely engulfing his true dragon body. However, even so, Jiang Chen was not seriously injured. Even though his aura was torn apart, his true dragon body still possessed powerful defensive capabilities.

With a whoosh, the dragon horns on his head emitted a precious light, and the true dragon power within Jiang Chen's body revived, extinguishing the foxfire that had seeped into his body.

Sensing this change, the fox spirit knew he could no longer hesitate.

"Soul-Destroying Death Strike!"

A light emanated from between his brows, revealing his deathly intent; the fox demon had used his last resort.

In that instant, a phantom-like, small fox shadow emerged from its ghostly body, transforming into a streak of black light that traversed a vast distance in an instant, aiming directly at Jiang Chen's brow. At that moment, space seemed to lose its meaning.

Upon realizing all this, Jiang Chen's eyes suddenly lit up.

"A method to attack the soul? It's aimed directly at death. It's extremely vicious. Ordinary cultivators really can't defend against it. If they're not careful, even a Purple Mansion cultivator could be injured. It's just a pity that they've encountered me."

In the blink of an eye, almost instinctively, Jiang Chen summoned the Soul-Suppressing Hall, a treasure of his divine soul.

With a hum, the Soul Suppressing Hall manifested, and the Soul Suppressing Immortal Light poured down. Jiang Chen's powerful divine soul was instantly enveloped by a layer of tangible immortal light. At almost the same time, the black thorns formed by the Fox Ghost's divine soul, carrying extreme death intent, pointed directly at Jiang Chen's divine soul.

With a hiss, the Soul-Destroying Black Light and the Soul-Suppressing Immortal Light met, but for a moment they could not advance.

Taking in all these changes, Jiang Chen was not surprised at all. The fox ghost's methods were indeed ruthless, but in terms of soul, the other party was still far inferior to him, not to mention that he had a treasure like the Soul Suppressing Hall to protect him.

"To be honest, I don't yet have a suitable method for killing with divine souls."

With a sudden thought, Jiang Chen once again triggered the Soul Suppressing Hall.

With a loud thud, the Soul-Suppressing Hall trembled, resembling the tolling of a bell. A powerful Soul-Suppressing Immortal Light erupted, sweeping away everything. At this moment, the seemingly ferocious Soul-Destroying Immortal Light melted away like snow meeting the spring sun.

As a result of this backlash, the fox demon let out a shrill scream. The essence of this Soul-Destroying Death Thorn was actually formed from its own soul. If it failed to kill the enemy, it would be injured. It was precisely for this reason that it never used this method lightly.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen seized the opportunity when the fox spirit suffered a backlash and its defenses were wide open, and used the Heart Mirror.

"Mirror of Heaven Captures Souls!"

With his mind's mirror hanging high, Jiang Chen aimed it at the fox demon.

In that instant, powerless to resist, the fox spirit's soul was directly absorbed, leaving only an empty ghost body.

Seeing this, without any hesitation, Jiang Chen once again activated the Primordial Chaos Qi, using it to suppress the fox demon's ghost body.

After doing all this, Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief. This fox demon was transformed from the former Purple Mansion Demon King, and it had many secrets. Both the fox fire and the methods to attack the soul were what he wanted.

If the other party had escaped or self-destructed, bringing everything to nothing, he would have truly felt it was a pity. Fortunately, everything has now settled down.

"With the Mind Mirror capturing the soul and suppressing the body with a single breath, this fox ghost has no chance to turn the tables."

Holding the Heart Mirror in his hand, Jiang Chen smiled as he looked at the ghostly body enveloped by the Primordial Chaos Qi.
