Soul Emperor Awakening

The soul before him grew larger and larger, emitting a terrifying Killing Intent far stronger than before. While the statue carried on its slaughter, the soul absorbed a great deal of the red mist. Consequently, the God of Slaughter’s soul swelled, and its ever-intensifying Killing Intent gave Lin Xuan a very bad feeling.

At the same time, Lin Xuan felt the Elemental Power within the statue he controlled dwindling. If this continued, it would be difficult to hold on. The Five-Colored Spirit Wood wasn’t invincible; it had its limits. Once that limit was reached, it could shatter, rendering it unusable.

Therefore, he decided to risk it all now. If things went on like this, he would definitely be the first to fall.

’I’ve almost killed a thousand of them. When soldiers with Essence Pill Stage Cultivation show up, things will get really dangerous.’ Lin Xuan frowned. ’The pressure will increase dramatically, and the statue definitely won’t be able to hold out then.’

He was also almost out of Five-Colored Spirit Wood, making it impossible to last much longer. More importantly, his own Elemental Power was running low. The Dragon Blood Pill and the Blood Jade Fruit within him had been almost completely absorbed, and his Cultivation was nearing the Eighth Layer of the Spirit Refining Stage—a massive breakthrough.

But Lin Xuan didn’t care about that. What he cared about was taking down the soul of this God of Slaughter!

"What’s wrong? Not attacking anymore?" The God of Slaughter’s soul pulsed, its voice dripping with ridicule, as if it found toying with Lin Xuan to be a very amusing affair.

Although Lin Xuan could do nothing to the God of Slaughter, the God of Slaughter, in turn, could do nothing to him.

"Is that so..." Lin Xuan smirked coldly. He unleashed the Golden Dragon King’s soul within him to its absolute limit. His entire body blazed with golden light, forcing the encroaching red mist to retreat even further. The amount of Killing Intent his body could absorb was also gradually nearing its limit.

His conversion ability was powerful, but his body ultimately had its limits. After a breakthrough, he had to stabilize and rest.

Sensing that Lin Xuan was about to go all-out, the God of Slaughter felt a sense of foreboding and sneered, "Then you can just become my slave!"

A dozen spears formed from the red mist shot toward Lin Xuan. They were a size larger than the spears it had initially formed, a clear sign that the God of Slaughter was also going all-out. It had no desire to be absorbed by Lin Xuan.

"Go!"

Just as the red spears were about to pierce him, an azure cloud rose beneath his feet. Amidst a flash of golden light, BANG! He stomped the ground fiercely, caving in the solid earth beneath him.

His figure flashed with a golden glint, the Golden Scales on his body faintly visible. At this moment, he achieved perfect harmony with the Golden Dragon King’s soul. Vaguely, he seemed to transform into a Giant Dragon, soaring into the air with a speed several times faster than before!

He easily dodged the incoming spears and shot toward the God of Slaughter’s soul at extreme speed. His outstretched palm, glowing with a faint golden light, reached out to envelop the God of Slaughter’s soul.

"Die!" The God of Slaughter unleashed another volley of dense red spears, even more numerous than before. There was almost nowhere to dodge unless he retreated or flew higher. But if he did that, the God of Slaughter would slip away again.

In that instant, a golden glint flashed in Lin Xuan’s eyes. He let out a low roar, "Golden Dragon Wings!"

ROAR!

A dragon’s roar echoed as enormous golden dragon wings sprouted from Lin Xuan’s back, large enough to envelop his entire body. The newly formed Golden Dragon Wings thrust forward to block, forming what looked like a golden shield before him.

As the red spears struck the dragon wings, they went BANG BANG BANG, exploding into clouds of red mist. At the same time, the golden light of the wings dimmed rapidly. Protected by these formidable wings, Lin Xuan swiftly closed in on the God of Slaughter’s soul. ’I can’t maintain this state for long. I have to speed up.’

"Don’t even think about it!" The God of Slaughter seemed to display the domineering aura of its former life, unleashing an even denser barrage of spears. Hundreds of them shot forward.

BANG BANG BANG!

The red spears exploded rapidly against the dragon wings, and the wings’ light dimmed at an even faster rate. Finally, under the relentless barrage, a section of the wings could no longer hold and began to turn transparent.

SCHLICK!

A spear pierced through, viciously embedding itself in his body. Lin Xuan’s body only faltered for a moment before he continued reaching out, determined to grab that mass of soul.

SCHLICK!

Another spear sank into his body. He faltered again but did not retreat, forcibly enduring the attack. His eyes were quickly overcome with a red glow, and Killing Intent permeated his entire body. Because the Golden Dragon King’s soul was fully unleashed, he could temporarily withstand it.

"Absorb it!"

After being impaled by several more spears, Lin Xuan finally got close to the God of Slaughter’s soul. He plunged his hand into the soul, and the Soul Pearl inside his body began to spin frantically.

Before the God of Slaughter’s soul could even react, it was sucked into his body. The moment he drew the soul into his Soul Pearl, a terrifying wave of Killing Intent rampaged through his system, many times greater than the total amount he had absorbed before!

"I didn’t expect you to be able to absorb my soul, but you’ll pay a price for it! You’ll be consumed by Killing Intent, lose your mind, and become a homicidal maniac! HA HA HA..." Even within the Soul Pearl, the God of Slaughter was still incredibly arrogant. In life, its hands were stained with the blood of countless victims, and it had never submitted to anyone. Even being absorbed into the Soul Pearl wouldn’t make it compromise.

"Perish!"

Lin Xuan let out a low roar. The Soul Pearl in his body released a burst of light. The God of Slaughter’s laughter stopped abruptly, turning into a final, agonized scream before vanishing completely. All that remained was a small cluster of red soul, devoid of any consciousness!

Before the Soul Pearl, all souls had to submit! However, it only worked on souls that had been absorbed inside; it had no effect on those outside.

This was the first time he had ever annihilated a soul’s consciousness. The God of Slaughter had committed countless evils in its life, staining its hands with too much innocent blood. Thus, Lin Xuan crushed its consciousness without the slightest hesitation or mercy.

Annihilating the God of Slaughter’s consciousness didn’t mean the Killing Intent within the soul would be dispersed. All the Killing Intent it had absorbed over so many years now poured into his body. His eyes and skin turned a shade of red so deep it couldn’t get any redder. A heaven-piercing Killing Intent even surged from his body, forming a red mist that enveloped him.

’I must fortify my consciousness!’ Lin Xuan quickly sat down in meditation and began to dispel the Killing Intent from his body. But the Killing Intent was simply too powerful. If the Killing Intent he had absorbed before was a bucket of water, what was inside him now was a great lake.

His heart filled with murderous intent. Whenever the faces of those who had once mocked him appeared in his mind, an endless urge to kill would well up. He wished he could rush back to the Lin Family right now and slaughter the disciples who used to laugh at him!

’Such powerful Killing Intent... In that case, I’ll have the God of Slaughter itself subdue you!’ Lin Xuan roared and quickly initiated Soul Possession with the God of Slaughter’s soul.

In an instant, his entire disposition changed dramatically. An aura that was truly that of a God of Slaughter emanated from his very being, sweeping out in all directions. Just by sitting there in meditation, without releasing anything, he could make thousands tremble!

However, there were no people before him now, only a group of soldiers.

Upon sensing the God of Slaughter’s aura, the soldiers actually stopped attacking. They stood rooted to the spot, completely still!

At the same time, the statue Lin Xuan had summoned also stopped its attacks. The statue had no consciousness of its own and could only be controlled by Lin Xuan. Right now, he was focusing all his energy on expelling the Killing Intent from his body. How could he have any spare energy to control it? He could only be thankful that the God of Slaughter’s aura was able to intimidate the soldiers.

Otherwise, he would have been run through by their spears. At that point, with even more murderous intent flooding his body, he would just be waiting for death.
