Chapter 217: Yang Xiong's Battle with Qian Renxue
As Yang Xiong's body martial soul and soul rings were revealed, a blood-red light shot up into the sky, representing the God of Killing domain.
The God of Killing domain and the Angel domain manifested, with red and golden lights clashing in the sky. The entire space seemed to be completely isolated, as the two forces continuously collided.
Qian Renxue snorted coldly: "Your God of Killing domain is quite interesting, but under the purity of the Angel, all killings and evils will have no place to hide."
Qian Renxue moved incredibly fast, her hands glowing with a holy light as she rapidly charged towards Yang Xiong. She was using her first soul skill: Angel Assault.
Yang Xiong clenched his right fist, his entire fist glowing blood-red, and he swung it with all his strength, delivering a devastating punch, his self-created soul skill: Bone Crushing Punch.
The two fists collided, and the air seemed to shatter under the force.
Yang Xiong remained motionless, but Qian Renxue staggered back several steps. It seemed that in terms of strength, Yang Xiong was far stronger than Qian Renxue.
The next moment, both of them moved incredibly fast, continuously attacking each other, as if golden and red shadows were clashing.
In less than a minute, after taking two punches from Yang Xiong, Qian Renxue was blasted back several dozen meters.
Yang Xiong couldn't help but shake his head. "Miss Qian Renxue, you disappoint me. Your strength is far too weak compared to mine. If it's just a battle, you're no match for me."
Qian Renxue snorted coldly. "Yang Xiong, you think this is all I can do? You're underestimating me."
Qian Renxue's fifth soul ring shimmered, and the Six-Winged Angel behind her radiated endless flames. Eventually, the holy flames coalesced into a golden sword, her fifth soul skill: Holy Sword.
After using this skill, not only was the Six-Winged Angel martial soul greatly enhanced, but the Holy Sword also possessed a strong purifying ability. It was a powerful attack infused with formidable fire and light energy, and even a rare holy attribute energy.
With a casual swing of her sword, a golden sword qi shot up into the sky. Under the influence of the purifying force, the God of Killing domain seemed to be suppressed.
Qian Renxue sneered, "The Six-Winged Angel represents the purest form of fairness and justice in the world. It is the nemesis of all evil. Your God of Killing domain is full of evil and slaughter and has no place in this world."
After Yang Xiong used his Bright Palm to block Qian Renxue's sword qi, a cold smile appeared on his lips. "Now this is interesting. Your Six-Winged Angel martial soul is indeed the purest light in the world, but unfortunately, neither you nor Wuhun Hall represents light. Instead, you are corrupted by darkness and ambition."
Yang Xiong's fifth soul ring flashed, and a blood-red sword, crackling with lightning, appeared in his hand. This was his fifth soul skill: Crimson Blood Thunder Sword.
"Qian Renxue, your swordsmanship is somewhat interesting, but unfortunately, in terms of swordplay, you haven't even begun. Let me show you what true swordsmanship looks like."
Yang Xiong gripped the Crimson Blood Thunder Sword and swung it in the air. A blood-red sword qi shot out, colliding with Qian Renxue's golden sword qi.
The two sword qies seemed to counter each other. Qian Renxue's golden sword qi had terrifying purifying power, but Yang Xiong's blood-red sword qi exuded an extreme killing aura. Not only did the two forces counter each other, but the killing aura even began to corrupt Qian Renxue's sword qi and domain.
The two of them were evenly matched, moving swiftly as they clashed with one sword after another, each blow seemingly capable of slicing their opponent in half.
However, as their attacks became faster, Yang Xiong gradually gained the upper hand in swordsmanship. His killing intent was stronger, and his combat experience was far superior to Qian Renxue's, making him more ruthless.
As Yang Xiong's swordsmanship became more ferocious, several sword qi shot out from the Crimson Blood Thunder Sword. The sword qi formed a huge character "Kill," and the blood-red "Kill" resembled a demon god, akin to a Shura.
Even though Qian Renxue exerted all her strength, she could not resist the onslaught of Yang Xiong's Seven Killing Sword technique. She was blasted back several dozen meters, and a terrifying sword mark appeared on her shoulder.
Qian Renxue seemed to laugh in rage. "Yang Xiong, I've underestimated you. I didn't expect that, although you don't have a sword martial soul, you could use swordsmanship to such an extent. It seems you've learned the Seven Killing Sword technique from the Sword Douluo. Your teacher certainly didn't waste his time."
Yang Xiong snorted. "There's always someone stronger. You may have unparalleled talent, but you've wasted it by playing with schemes and tricks in the Tiandou Imperial Palace."
"Your swordsmanship is skillful, but it lacks true rigorous training, and you have no experience with life-and-death situations. You may have the appearance, but you lack true killing power."
Qian Renxue looked furious. "Yang Xiong, you're becoming more and more interesting. I'll give you one last chance. If you join me and Wuhun Hall, I can guarantee the safety of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and show you a broader world."
Yang Xiong laughed. "Now that's interesting. You can't even defeat me, and you want to show me a broader world? I see you only know how to boast, with no real ability."
Qian Renxue's face darkened. "What do you know? The Upper Three Sects, the Tiandou Empire, are nothing in my eyes. Only Wuhun Hall can reach a higher level of soul master."
Yang Xiong looked at Qian Renxue with a look of disdain. "I didn't expect you to be so delusional. If you really looked down on the Tiandou Empire and the Upper Three Sects, you wouldn't have spent so much time and effort trying to take over the Tiandou Empire. You wouldn't have gone to great lengths to attack the Upper Three Sects."
Qian Renxue shouted angrily, "How dare you look down on me! Do you know how many experts Wuhun Hall has? We're far beyond what you've seen!"
Yang Xiong sighed. "Are you talking about the so-called Seven Elders? Your grandfather, Qian Daoliu, is indeed powerful, but don't forget, even though Wuhun Hall is so arrogant, didn't it still cower when faced with the ancient Tang Chen of Haotian Clan? For all these years, you haven't dared to touch Haotian Clan, have you? You're just afraid of Tang Chen's vengeance, aren't you?"
Qian Renxue's face turned dark, and she smiled viciously in anger. "I'm only giving you this one chance. If you refuse, I will make you feel true despair."
Yang Xiong shook his head. "You and I are on different paths. If Wuhun Hall is willing to coexist peacefully, I might give you a chance."
Qian Renxue laughed. "You are but a frog in a well. Yang Xiong, your God of Killing domain was obtained through tests in the City of Slaughter. It's not a true innate domain. Today, I'll show you that a true innate domain can only reach its full power when the martial soul true body is used. In my eyes, you are nothing but an ant."
Qian Renxue's seventh soul ring flashed, and the gigantic Six-Winged Angel spirit appeared behind her, as if it was fused with her body. Qian Renxue radiated an extremely pure golden light. Her strength and momentum seemed to have received a huge boost, and just from her aura, she was no longer an ordinary Title Douluo—she might even be stronger.
The golden light around her was so overwhelming that even Yang Xiong's God of Killing domain seemed to be completely suppressed. It was as if a golden sun appeared in the sky, and Yang Xiong's soul power was rapidly purified.
Even the surrounding people began to feel the effects, with the angelic light illuminating everything, and even their soul power being partially purified.
Yang Xiong snorted. "No wonder the Six-Winged Angel is considered one of the rarest divine-level martial souls. The innate domain is indeed strong, but you still underestimate me. Who said only you possess an innate domain?"
At that moment, Yang Xiong's hundred-thousand-year blood-red soul ring flashed, and a gigantic blood-red silhouette appeared behind him. His body became incredibly powerful, especially in terms of strength, which seemed to have received a huge boost.
Yang Xiong's domain shifted, turning blood-red, filled with a killing aura. In his domain, everyone felt a deep shiver, and even soul ring skills seemed to be partially suppressed.
This was Yang Xiong's seventh soul skill, the Asura True Body. Not only was his strength maximized, but his attack power and various attributes were also greatly enhanced.
Especially in terms of the domain, the blood-red light began to gradually suppress Qian Renxue, and the golden light she emitted was seemingly contaminated by the killing aura, causing her soul power to be affected and her soul skill's power to decrease drastically.
Even with Qian Renxue having the Six-Winged Angel's domain and possessing a higher soul power, Yang Xiong was still able to limit the effectiveness of her soul skills.
This was the terrifying nature of the God of Killing domain. If the opponent's soul power was weaker than his own, he could directly suppress their ability to use soul skills. Against someone with higher soul power, he could only limit the power of their soul skills.
However, under the God of Killing domain, the enemy's mind would also be affected, unless their domain was stronger than Yang Xiong's.
Qian Renxue's eyes widened in terror. "This is impossible! Your God of Killing domain was clearly obtained later. Why is it evolving with the use of your martial soul true body?"
Yang Xiong coldly sneered. "I've told you, you're a frog in a well. While angels may be filled with glory, your past glory has blinded you. Let me shatter your illusions."
The one most surprised on the scene was actually Tang Hao.
Tang Hao, who also possessed the God of Killing domain, now realized that it had been Yang Xiong who broke through the City of Slaughter when Tang San was training there.
What shocked him even more was that although both he and Yang Xiong had the God of Killing domain, after Yang Xiong used his martial soul true body, his God of Killing domain actually surpassed his own in every aspect. It was unimaginable.
Qian Renxue screamed in fury, "Enough! The Six-Winged Angel martial soul is the only divine-level martial soul in the world, representing the will of the heavens. You are just an insignificant ant. Don't think that having some strength means you can challenge the heavens."
Yang Xiong gripped the Crimson Blood Thunder Sword and pointed it at Qian Renxue. "What are you? Just someone relying on a bit of talent. There are plenty of talented people in this world. You're just a naive fool calling yourself the heavens."
