Chapter 193 Level 8 Soul Master
Two muffled thuds rang out, and Ye Guyi, poised to strike, rushed into the two stone houses one after the other. Her Seven Star Longsword pierced out, instantly killing the two Evil Soul Saints.
Feeling the instant breakthrough in her soul power, a satisfied smile appeared on Ye Guyi's pretty face.
Wu Xuan ignored the smug Ye Guyi, entered the stone houses, skillfully looted the soul tools of the two Evil Soul Saints, and then expertly incinerated the two corpses with a ball of azure flame.
"Yang Xuan! What were you doing before? Killing, looting, disposing of corpses—how did you become so skilled? You didn't even dare show your true face when you participated in the Infinite Arena, could it be that your name is fake too?" Ye Guyi looked at the skilled Wu Xuan and couldn't help but become suspicious.
"Fake? What good would lying to you do me? Let's go, the final goal for tonight is far from being achieved." Wu Xuan urged, stepping out of the stone house.
"Alright, coming, coming." Abandoning her intelligence, Ye Guyi stopped thinking and continued to follow Wu Xuan.
That night, Wu Xuan and Ye Guyi were like reapers in the darkness, leaving no evil spirit masters alive in their wake. Amidst this carnage, Ye Guyi's soul power increased by six levels, a sight that left Wu Xuan speechless. One could only imagine how many mid-to-high-level evil spirit masters had died at their hands.
"Miss Ye, you're truly a hidden talent! Six levels of soul power in one night!" Wu Xuan said, somewhat envious.
"Hehe! All thanks to you, my powerful ally. How about I follow you from now on? Let's eradicate evil together and maintain peace on the continent!" Ye Guyi stepped forward, grabbing Wu Xuan's arm and giggling.
"Is that what you call eradicating evil and maintaining peace? I don't even want to call you out on it," Wu Xuan retorted irritably.
"Hehe, as they say, actions speak louder than words! You tell me, my ally."
"Stop! We're almost there! I sensed a very strong aura inside that treasure vault. Its strength is at least at the Soul Douluo level!" Wu Xuan said solemnly.
"Soul Douluo? Then we should take a gamble." Ye Guyi's smile also faded.
"Of course! How can I leave empty-handed after only dealing with a Soul Douluo?" With that, Wu Xuan walked directly towards the secret chamber.
Ye Guyi, holding the Seven Star Longsword, followed Wu Xuan out. With a powerful figure in front of her, what did she have to fear?
At this moment, the door outside the secret vault was still tightly locked. Wu Xuan did not rush out recklessly. As long as he could cover the opponent with his Hurricane Battlefield the moment the opponent came out, even the biggest commotion would not attract the attention of the Xi Shui Alliance's higher-ups.
Wu Xuan was not in a hurry at all; he had plenty of time.
"Hmph! That damned Nangong Wan, he won't approve this or that. It's just a little rare metal, and he's acting like it's going to kill you. If he won't approve it, I'll take it myself." A bald man slowly opened the vault door and cursed.
The next moment, a beam of emerald light illuminated the darkness, and the bald man felt a blur before his eyes as the scene outside completely changed.
"What's going on? Did that old bastard Nangong Wan set up some kind of soul tool here?" the bald man said grimly.
After searching for a while, the bald man couldn't find any flaws and began to get impatient. "What kind of soul tool is this? Even with my Eight Extremes Soul Master's eyesight, I can't detect anything?"
Just as the bald man started to get anxious, Wu Xuan seized the opportunity to attack. His figure flashed, and Wu Xuan darted out almost like lightning.
Wu Xuan's speed was simply too fast. By the time the bald man became wary, it was too late for him to react.
However, the bald man was, after all, a Soul Master, and his level seven triggered soul tool shield instantly popped out, attempting to block Wu Xuan's attack.
It was as easy as piercing a sheet of paper. The Soul-Shattering Spear instantly penetrated the level seven soul-guiding shield. This attack was Wu Xuan's pre-emptive strike, filled not only with his terrifying power and soul force, but also with the infusion of his spiritual power. That flash of silver light made Ye Guyi, who was watching from the sidelines, change her expression slightly. If she were to receive Wu Xuan's spear, it would almost certainly mean certain death.
But a Soul Douluo is a Soul Douluo. In the instant the level seven triggered soul-guiding shield blocked, the bald man directly pulled out a shield resembling a tortoise shell.
The sharp spear light accurately struck the tortoise shell shield. With a soft sound of bones breaking, the tortoise shell shield instantly shattered into pieces.
"Super! Disgusting defensive soul-guiding device." Wu Xuan cursed angrily and his figure retreated rapidly.
"You scoundrel, you dare to steal from our Xishui Alliance? Do you really not know how to spell death?" Upon seeing who it was, the bald man roared, spreading his hands, and a cold, eerie light flashed. Two eerie blue light blades shot towards Wu Xuan like lightning.
Up close, one could see the chilling aura emanating from the bald man's claws, imbued with intense resentment. If one were to be firmly gripped by those claws, even steel would be instantly pierced.
Under Wu Xuan's mental perception, the two incoming light blades swirled and flew out, tracing arcs from two different directions to intercept Wu Xuan. One slashed towards Wu Xuan's face, the other aimed straight for his heart. Such arcs were the hardest to dodge. A melee soul tool, the Soul-Shocking Claws!
Capable of both ranged and melee attacks, the ranged attack possessed a locking function, making it impossible to dodge. If struck by the light blades, one's soul would be severely corroded by resentment, causing mental instability.
Simultaneously with the release of the two light blades, the Soul-Shocking Claws on the bald man's hands suddenly launched ten sharp blades, charging towards Wu Xuan. At this moment, the Soul-Shocking Claws had clearly activated melee mode. It was only then that Wu Xuan truly saw the eight core formations of the soul tool on the bald man's hands—this was an eighth-level melee soul tool.
Facing the two swirling blades of light and the charging bald man, Wu Xuan showed no fear.
With a flick of his wrist, the Soul-Shattering Spear swung lightly in the air, instantly creating an afterimage.
"Clang, clang~." With two soft sounds, Wu Xuan accurately struck the two claw-like blades flying towards him.
Without even a second's delay, the blades shattered in mid-air. Then Wu Xuan turned around, thrusting the Soul-Shattering Spear straight at the charging bald man.
"Didn't work?" Looking at Wu Xuan, who showed no signs of discomfort, the bald man frowned deeply. His Soul-Shocking Claw had never missed!
However, the bald man obviously couldn't think about it now, because the blade of Wu Xuan's Soul-Shattering Spear was already upon him.
"Arrogant brat!" The bald man swung his hands, slapping the blade of the Soul-Shattering Spear with a claw.
"Bang!" The clash was simple, showcasing the difference in their resilience and strength.
The bald man staggered, his body flying two meters sideways. Wu Xuan remained unmoved; the outcome of their first exchange was clear.
The bald man was clearly unconvinced, and the dark blue blades in his hands erupted with intense resentment.
The next moment, his claws suddenly unleashed thousands of claw shadows, and simultaneously, the dark color on each claw momentarily subsided, colliding repeatedly with Wu Xuan's thrusting Soul-Shattering Spear.
