Chapter 1533: All Out Effort Against the Devil God

Every single cultivator capable of reaching the God Realm was not one to be underestimated. Furthermore, Chi Duo was a second-stage Devil God. The temporary domain he formed around him was something only Gods could do. That was an ability that could form a seal around an area, a seal only those in the God Realm could break.

The moment the domain was formed, the devilish energy in the area turned into countless arrows that flew in all directions. Because each arrow was powerful enough to kill a regular God, his move was terrifying.

Even while invisible, Xiang Shaoyun's physical body still existed. If one of the arrows struck him, he would be in trouble. Xiang Shaoyun's soul clone appeared with the Yin Mother Sword in hand and started swinging the sword. The Yin Mother Sword was a top-tier sword. Coupled with the Yin Sword Technique, it became increasingly terrifying and shattered all the incoming energy arrows.

"Since you have sealed the area, I'll leave after ending your life," said Xiang Shaoyun. He could break out of the domain, but he gritted his teeth and decided to kill Chi Duo before leaving. His main body released the Imperial Nether Domain and enveloped Chi Duo.

"Even if you're an Imperial Nether Clan member, you will have to die today!" said Chi Duo as a bow appeared in his hand. With the bow, he launched a devil bone arrow toward Xiang Shaoyun.

Devil Fang Draconic Arrow!

As the arrow flew out, an arrow dragon devil phantom manifested around it. The arrow carried enough strength to destroy one-tenth of a province with a single hit. The arrow collided against Xiang Shaoyun's sword, creating numerous shockwaves that rippled in all directions. The two attacks seemed evenly matched, with neither gaining an advantage over the other.

Xiang Shaoyun's soul clone was a fourth-stage pseudo-God. One could say that he had performed outstandingly by standing up against a second-stage Devil God with the Yin Mother Sword and Yin Sword Technique.

As for Chi Duo, he had not imagined that his attack would fail. He attacked once again, launching five arrows instantly, with each arrow being stronger than the previous arrow. If it wasn't for the fact that the Imperial Nether Domain had suppressed the arrows, they would be even more terrifying.

"Kill!" Xiang Shaoyun activated his devil dao and released a large amount of devilish energy. Even the rune on his forehead appeared while both devilish energy and death energy gathered around the Yin Mother Sword. With a swing, a breathtaking yet destructive slash was unleashed.

Xiang Shaoyun also sent the lotus soul foundation toward Chi Duo. The nine-colored lotus soul foundation was forged from primal divine stone and some other rare materials. The soul foundation had also been refined by primal inception energy and God Realm energy. It wasn't a god-grade weapon, but it was comparable with one such weapon. It also contained Xiang Shaoyun's terrifying soul power and emanated a boundless sense of power that had helped Xiang Shaoyun suppress Yu Huayan not long ago.

Facing the two powerful attacks, Chi Duo found himself somewhat lacking. He failed to pose any threat to Xiang Shaoyun. Instead, he was forced to deal with the two attacks on top of the suppressive effect. Thus, he was forced to turn back into his true form.

His true form was a dragon with countless bone arrows running across his body. Unlike a real dragon, only his head looked like a dragon, and his body was oval. When he moved, he was akin to a moving mountain.

The momentum of his advance was extremely ferocious as he sent numerous bone arrows shooting toward Xiang Shaoyun. At the same time, he constantly bombarded the Imperial Nether Domain with clumps of devilish energy spat out of his mouth. He would only be able to kill Xiang Shaoyun if he could escape the Imperial Nether Domain.

"Don't bother. You won't escape," said Xiang Shaoyun as he unleashed a series of sword attacks with the Yin Mother Sword, cutting through countless bone arrows.

At the same time, the nine-colored lotus soul foundation pressed down, releasing waves of soul power that clashed against the bone arrows and devilish energy.

"It truly isn't easy to slay a God. Let me show you something else," said Xiang Shaoyun. He knew that what he did wasn't enough to kill Chi Duo. He thus activated his Death Eyes and sent two beams of death energy shooting toward Chi Duo, stripping Chi Duo of his life force.

The three attacks gave Chi Duo a hard time, and his blood started spraying everywhere. If it wasn't for his resilience, he would have already died.

Finally, Chi Duo felt fear. Instead of facing Xiang Shaoyun, he charged toward the border of the Imperial Nether Domain, trying to break free of the domain.

"You can't escape," said Xiang Shaoyun as he pressed on and left a deep cut on Chi Duo's neck with his Yin Mother Sword, nearly severing Chi Duo's head with that one attack.

The lotus soul foundation then dropped down from the sky, crashing into Chi Duo's head, causing him to wail in pain. In the Imperial Nether Domain, Xiang Shaoyun was the absolute master. The lotus soul foundation was an extension of his body. As Xiang Shaoyun attacked repeatedly with the lotus soul foundation and the Yin Mother Sword, Chi Duo's blood dyed his surroundings red. If it wasn't for the fact that Devil Gods could reconstruct their bodies, he would have been long dead.

Even so, the continuous attacks caused Chi Duo to lose a large amount of blood. His recovery became slower and slower, and it became more and more unlikely that he would be able to escape. Eventually, Chi Duo was at his last breaths and could no longer pose any threat to Xiang Shaoyun.

The battle had greatly exhausted Xiang Shaoyun. If his opponent had lasted even a bit longer, he would not have been able to maintain the intensity of his attacks. He might know the profundity of life, but he hadn't fully mastered it. Thus, he couldn't rapidly replenish the exhaustion of his soul power. He could only swallow some soul spring water to relieve his exhaustion.

At this time, he could easily pluck Chi Duo's devil core out. Instead of doing so, he muttered, "The Nether Dragon Soul Curse was created by the Imperial Nether Clan, so it should probably work against devils as well."

At that thought, he couldn't hold in his curiosity and tried the curse on Chi Duo. One ancient symbol after another flew toward Chi Duo.

The devil core was the crystallization of a devil's strength, the essence of a devil's life. As a Devil God, Chi Duo's devil core was extremely powerful. Unfortunately, he had greatly exhausted himself in his fight with Xiang Shaoyun, allowing the curse symbols to enter his body and etch themselves onto his devil core.
