Dragon-Marked War God

At that moment, Hun Wan Mountain’s expression changed drastically, because he found that his Soul Seizing Divine Art had met with unprecedented resistance. At the same time, his soul was being frantically counterattacked by Jiang Chen.

“You also know the Soul Seizing Divine Art?”

Hun Wan Mountain’s face changed, and in a moment he understood. Yet Jiang Chen’s Soul Seizing Divine Art was even a level above his own!

It was a clash between one Soul Seizing Divine Art and another. Hun Wan Mountain had never expected this guy to gain the upper hand in a battle of souls. Worst of all, his own Soul Seizing Divine Art did not suppress Jiang Chen in the slightest, while the Dead Spirit Kill Soul that Jiang Chen unleashed left him at his wits’ end.

Even though he knew exactly what his opponent’s technique was, he still could not withstand the onslaught of the Soul Seizing Divine Art. The overwhelming soul pressure that Jiang Chen sent at him robbed him of any power to resist.

“You actually stole my Soul Seizing Divine Art! Jiang Chen, I will definitely kill you!”

Hun Wan Mountain was beside himself with rage. Being seriously injured by his own signature technique was far too humiliating. He never imagined that Jiang Chen could use his Soul Seizing Divine Art with such perfect mastery, even better than he himself could.

“The Soul Seizing Divine Art is simply wasted in your hands. You can’t bring out its true power at all.”

Jiang Chen said coldly. Hun Wan Mountain burned with even greater fury. This was a naked insult. His own technique had become the means for someone else to punish him. Who could stand that? Hun Wan Mountain counterattacked almost as fast as lightning, but Jiang Chen was no pushover. At a time like this, he naturally would not give him a chance to turn things around.

“Battle Soul, rise again! Soul shakes the Nine Heavens!”

Hun Wan Mountain let out a furious roar, and his momentum rose to its peak once more. The more than ten Hierarch elders also seized the chance to step up and support him. But these ten Hierarch experts were no match for Jiang Chen at all. With a wave of his hand, Jiang Chen sent a Late Hierarch Great Elder flying back with a single punch. His face was extremely cold. Everyone could hardly believe it. Not only that, two Early Hierarch elders had their bodies pierced straight through by Jiang Chen’s fists, and their souls scattered. Such might made him look like a peerless god of slaughter!

Even Hun Wan Mountain felt how terrifying Jiang Chen was at this moment. This guy was the true Ashura, the true god of slaughter.

Hun Wan Mountain’s soul power kept surging, even rising to the Mid Divine Emperor Realm. Once again he pressed toward Jiang Chen with the Soul Seizing Divine Art, but this time it was still useless. It had no effect at all. The only difference from before was that he was injured far more severely than the first time. The backlash of the Soul Seizing Divine Art almost destroyed his soul in an instant.

“Damn it! His soul power is so strong. How on earth did he cultivate it?”

While Hun Wan Mountain hesitated, Jiang Chen had already closed in on him. The terrifying force of his fists rose into the sky and came crashing down on the area like a thunderclap on flat ground, exploding in the void. Hun Wan Mountain retreated again and again, while Jiang Chen’s momentum only grew. In an instant, Hun Wan Mountain was suppressed so hard that he could barely breathe.

“This is the real Jiang Chen! It seems that surpassing you within a hundred years is impossible after all.”

Xue Liang muttered. But he was not discouraged. With the Great Emperor’s inheritance in his hands, all he needed was time. As long as he had enough time to fully grow, he would definitely surpass Jiang Chen. Once his Great Emperor’s path matured, there would probably be no one left in the Northern Cold Divine Region, or even the Central Region Divine Land, who could suppress him.

So Xue Liang was in no hurry. One day the clouds would part and he would see the moon, and at that moment he would become a true peerless Emperor. Jiang Chen was the only goal he wanted to catch up with and surpass. It was just that Jiang Chen’s talent was too strong and his steps were too fast. Even though Xue Liang cultivated this hard, he was still not his match.

Qian Renji also had boundless confidence in Jiang Chen. If he couldn’t even handle Hun Wan Mountain, then trying to make a big scene after entering the Profound Connection Divine Palace would be nothing short of suicide. Since Jiang Chen had such an idea, he must have been sure of himself. At the very least, he would not act rashly.

“You forced me to do this. I want to see just how strong your soul power really is!”

Hun Wan Mountain said in a low voice, his eyes gloomy. He muttered an incantation:

“All disciples, heed my command! Souls leave your bodies, return to the great world, and serve me alone! Ten thousand souls become one, and the soul shakes the heavens!”

As soon as Hun Wan Mountain finished the incantation, the tens of thousands of Soul-Leaving Sect disciples all went blank. At this moment, all of their souls were devoured by Hun Wan Mountain. Wave after wave of soul power, carrying endless anger, fear, panic and despair, was swallowed by Hun Wan Mountain to strengthen his own soul power, which surged in an instant. Even Jiang Chen had not expected this. This guy was willing to use the strength of his entire sect to reinforce his soul power and raise his strength rapidly.

“Sect Lord, you can’t!”

“Sect Lord… Sigh, the Soul-Leaving Sect is finished.”

“This, this, this is simply digging our own grave.”

“You don’t understand at all. Unless the Sect Lord were at a matter of life and death, he would never do this. As long as the green mountains remain, there’s no need to worry about firewood. As long as the Sect Lord is still alive, the Soul-Leaving Sect has the chance to rise again. But if the Sect Lord falls, then the Soul-Leaving Sect will truly be in danger.”

Only the ten great elders were left on the entire mountain range. The souls of all the Soul-Leaving Sect disciples had been completely devoured by Hun Wan Mountain. Even Xue Liang, Qian Renji and the others drew in a cold breath. This Hun Wan Mountain was far too brutal. He was so cruel to the people of his own sect. This was basically the same as destroying his own sect. The strength of an entire sect had been completely devoured. Who could imagine that in the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of people would be reduced to ashes under Hun Wan Mountain’s control? This was killing people and breaking their hearts at the same time!

Jiang Chen frowned. This guy was even more terrifying than the evil ghosts of hell. He had devoured all of his own people just to increase his strength. How was that any different from a devil? He was cruel and inhuman. The Soul-Leaving Sect was bound to be destroyed. That was already sealed.

Pity those innocent souls who did not even get one last chance to cry out for justice. They had thought they were leaning on a great tree, but who would have known that the Sect Lord of the Soul-Leaving Sect himself would end their lives? The grievances of their soul power kept gathering, tens of thousands of them. A bloody light welled up in Hun Wan Mountain’s eyes. He became more violent, more bloodthirsty and more insane than before, as if he wanted to devour Jiang Chen too.

“He who does much evil will destroy himself! You’re digging your own grave!”

Jiang Chen shouted in a deep voice.

“As long as I can kill you and avenge my son Shaoqian, what does it matter if I have to kill everyone under heaven? Humph, prepare to die, kid!”

“Myriad Souls Grievance Formation!”
