“Boom!!”

Another explosion rung through the air as the Cataclysmic Seal slammed into the mountain!!

It was like a meteor crashing into the earth. There was a tremendous tremor as the Cataclysmic Seal touched down and shook the entirety of the mountain and the ground around it to send dust and dirt flying everywhere. In front of everyone’s eyes, several mountains nearby started to have landslides happen on them!!

With how deep the Cataclysmic Seal crashed into the mountain and how powerful its descent was, the dust it kicked up flew high enough above the place to cover its gigantic frame within a matter of seconds...

“Dear...dear lord!! So that soul armament of Bai Yunfei can expand in size! This...this is too large! How is this even possible?!”

“It’s not just a change in size too! The power behind that...it’s terrifying! Qin Long’s strongest attack wasn’t even able to put a dent into it! He didn’t even harm a single hair on Bai Yunfei’s head!”

“The most terrifying thing to me was how Bai Yunfei had his soul armament move! What a nightmare! Why didn’t he use that straight away? Had he just pressed it down against the ground, half the Qin would’ve been squashed to death in the beginning...”

“It’s not as easy as you think. They were all spread out pretty thinly. He’d probably kill a few Early-stage Soul Kings, but that’s overkill in that case, isn’t it? Doesn’t it seem like Bai Yunfei had to use up a lot of soulforce for that move? I’m pretty sure Bai Yunfei can’t use a move like this very easily unless the situation calls for it.”

“I think Qin Long was sent flying away? Does anyone know how he’s doing? And what about that Qin He? I don’t think I saw him dodge it. If he was smashed into the mountain and that mountain crumbled to pieces...is...is he even alive still?!”

“......”

The audience had come full circle now. The previous sights saw to them being stunned into silence, and now this newest development saw to them anxiously chattering to each other. The Soul Ancestors and Soul Exalts were all in a loud clamor as they tried to discuss the potential outcomes of the Cataclysmic Seal crashing into the mountain while the Soul Kings merely stood there in silence. Everyone was staring at the mountain though, wondering if Qin He or Qin Long would come stumbling out from where they landed.

“Huf...huff...huff...”

Bai Yunfei was bent over on top of his Heaven’s Thunder. Sweatdrops were rolling off his nose as he gasped for air. His face, pale like paper, was clearly having trouble breathing properly. Not even the fire around his person was flickering energetically like before.

The gigantification of the Cataclysmic Seal to block Qin Long’s move and then strike down Qin He was no easy feat. It required a tremendous amount of soulforce for Bai Yunfei to pull off and would take some time to recover the lost half of his remaining reserves.

If he had to guess how much soulforce he had left, Bai Yunfei would say only twenty percent was left in him.

The Yun’s Soul Ring started to flood his system with the stockpiled soulforce in it. Combined with the Dual Flame Artes, the ring started to set Bai Yunfei on an accelerated pace to recover his soulforce.

A beam of red light shot out from the dust; it was the Cataclysmic Seal. Flying back to Bai Yunfei, it shivered once to surround Bai Yunfei in a layer of orange light to protect him inside.

“This should be the end of the battle...” Bai Yunfei muttered to himself as he observed the ruins of the mountain.

He hadn’t paid much attention to Qin Long after he struck him with the Cataclysmic Seal. He couldn’t sense Qin Long’s aura so that either meant Qin Long was beyond his range of sense, or...he was dead.

Bai Yunfei could still sense Qin He though. He was still stuck deep within the rubbles of the mountain, but whether he’d come flying out had yet to be seen.

“Ahh!!!”

A loud cry from another part of the battlefield had Bai Yunfei turning around just in time to see Jing Mingfeng pull out a black dagger from the heart of his enemy...

His one-man war tactics brought about a large amount of shock to everyone else in the battlefield. Because of him, the Early-stage Soul King Jing Mingfeng was fighting was shocked and far too distracted to realize Jing Mingfeng’s action until it was too late.

That didn’t mean to say Jing Mingfeng was looking unharmed. He had a few wounds to himself and a few spots on his body where blood was trickling from, especially on his face. Still, he looked excited that he managed to kill his opponent with relative ease.

“Ah!!”

Another panicked cry could be heard shortly after the death of Jing Mingfeng’s opponent. This time, it was Qin Yuan who cried out. His face was completely pale from fright, but he was still very much alive. He was trying to flee!

Qin Yuan had lost the will to fight; he was trying his best to run away!

But how could Xiao Qi let him run away like that?

“Chirp!!”

A near-transparent flash of elemental wind and lightning could be seen as it streaked straight for Qin Yuan!

Thanks to the Wind and Lightning Feathers, Xiao Qi was able to fly at a speed that far outstripped the speed of Qin Yuan. He caught up in a matter of seconds and immediately assaulted the man with a flurry of wind blades!

Despair filled Qin Yuan’s eyes. A layer of violet light covered his body as a last attempt for defense before the blades of wind slammed into him!

No one could even see how he was doing with how the blades of wind exploded over him.

Then came the pitch-black spatial edge!

It devoured all in its path as it traveled in a linear path straight for Qin Yuan!

The furious roars of Qin Yuan lasted for only a moment before the spatial edge flew straight through the area where he stood. And then, all was silent!

That was when people knew he was dead! And most likely not in one piece!

......

“Boom!!”

A tertiary sound alerted the audience to yet another part of the battlefield. When the audience turned to look, they saw a streak of green light clash with a bright orange light before the two split into two different directions from one another.

Xiao Nan wiped a trail of blood from his lips from within his orange ball of light. He was still safe and now at a respectable distance away from his opponent.

Up against him was Qin Pingzhi. He, on the other hand, was flying away like a kite with a broken string with fresh blood spilling from his mouth!

Clearly, Xiao Nan had barely managed to come out with victory in his one-on-two battle!

“Roar!!”

Long Lan let loose a loud roar that vibrated the air around him and flooded the place with blue light. A bright blue claw formed from the light to lash out at the defenseless Qin Pingzhi and batted him away like a ball straight for...Xiao Qi!

It went without saying that Xiao Qi responded to this kind gift with a single spatial edge straight through Qin Pingzhi’s body...

The audience went wild upon Qin Pingzhi’s death—the soulbeast was far too violent! What kind of soulbeast enjoyed to kill every single one of their opponent without even a shred of mercy to them like Xiao Qi?!

Not even a minute went by since Bai Yunfei managed to strike down Qin Long with the Cataclysmic Seal. Not even half a minute went by for the audience to be struck with the realization that not a single member from the Qin was left standing!

Aside from Qin Long, who’s status was yet unknown, Qin He was stuck under the rubble, so that meant every single Soul King from the Qin were now...dead!

It was an overwhelming victory for Bai Yunfei’s side!

......

“Whew...”

Bai Yunfei sighed in relief. He nodded to Xiao Nan before turning around to head for where Tang Xinyun and Zhao Jie were.

He was still keeping an eye on the place where Qin he was, but Xiao Qi was already given the signal to kill Qin He given the chance.

The victory was theirs, but Bai Yunfei wasn’t going to repeat his mistake of being lenient.

“Bz...”

There was a rumbling sound from the west just then. As if the world was starting to tremble, a terrifying aura started to roll out through the area!

The pupils in Bai Yunfei’s eyes dilated as his soulsense alerted him to the fact that a massive amount of killing intent was aimed solely onto him!

Straight away...sweat started to pool on his back!
