Chapter 2462: Chapter 2462: Turning Point

Liu Shi didn’t take this sword too seriously.

First, because this sword didn’t display much brilliance.

Second, although Ye Haochuan’s strength shown by Heavenly Eye Incineration wasn’t weak, it wasn’t enough to threaten him.

Besides, judging by the current attack speed, his Soul Absorption Slash would definitely reach Ye Haochuan before the sword.

Once the soul is destroyed, no matter how powerful this sword is, it will be meaningless.

His analysis was indeed correct; when the Five Spirits Infinite Sword just touched his protective shield, a few axe shadows had already accurately slashed at Ye Haochuan’s head.

These axe shadows wouldn’t harm the physical body, naturally, they wouldn’t be obstructed by the physical form, instantly invading Ye Haochuan’s Sea of Consciousness.

Ye Haochuan gritted his teeth, watching helplessly as the axe shadows approached, yet was powerless.

But just when he thought death was certain, the Taichi Pearl suddenly moved.

A suction force emanated from the Taichi Pearl, instantly drawing Ye Haochuan’s soul into the Taichi Pearl.

"Oh damn, how did I forget I still had this move?"

Ye Haochuan was instantly overjoyed in his heart.

The Taichi Pearl didn’t "detain" him for long; in almost an instant, his soul returned to his body.

Although it was just a moment, those overwhelming axe shadows had also completely vanished without a trace.

Ye Haochuan unconsciously checked the Taichi Pearl, and found that not to mention scars, there wasn’t even a single mark on it.

Awesome! With such a divine artifact, Mama doesn’t have to worry about me not being able to withstand soul attacks anymore!

Ye Haochuan was in high spirits, and his heart suddenly filled with confidence.

However, this confidence seemed to have come a bit late, not because he had no chance to reverse the situation, but because his opponent was already in shock.

Liu Shi never expected Ye Haochuan to escape from the axe shadow attack, nor did he expect the Five Spirits Infinite Sword blessed by the Xuanxian Order to be so powerful.

So when the axe shadow attacked Ye Haochuan, he believed the battle was over and relaxed completely.

Although the Five Spirits Infinite Sword continued to soar, he didn’t think the cultivation technique and magical treasure, without the support of its master, could exert any power.

But he was soon bewildered when the Divine Concealment Sword pierced through his barrier like poking through a plastic film and pierced through his body.

Several invisible blades instantly cut his body into pieces; now, he no longer needed to worry about whether to find someone to save him because he was beyond saving.

"What... exactly happened?"

Liu Shi stared at Ye Haochuan, dying with eyes wide open.

Just now, Ye Haochuan was clearly powerless under his axe shadows, so why wasn’t he hurt in the slightest when he went all out?

Could it be that this guy was deliberately deceiving him earlier?

Impossible, the look of despair on his face earlier didn’t seem like it was fake!

Could it be that was the legendary acting skill?

Damn, what an unjust death!

I hadn’t even had the chance to unleash many of my powerful techniques, how did I get tricked to death by such a deceitful guy with outstanding acting?

Fortunately, Ye Haochuan didn’t know Liu Shi’s thoughts at the moment, or he would have surely stumbled and fallen.

He was so innocent; he genuinely forgot he had such a weapon like the Taichi Pearl to protect his soul for a brief moment. He didn’t mean to trick anyone.

Of course, if Ye Haochuan had known that he could trick someone to death, even if he had thought of the Taichi Pearl earlier, he would have undoubtedly pretended to fool the opponent.

Though not a professional actor, his acting skills would definitely not lose to those so-called young idols on Earth.

After narrowly killing Liu Shi, Ye Haochuan didn’t spend much time enjoying the thrill of victory because a crisis had already emerged on the Old Woman’s side.

Squeezing potential is ultimately a short-term solution; as time passes, the strength squeezed out would gradually weaken.

The Old Woman at the moment was no longer as fierce as before, the Ghost Shadow’s formidable form still appeared imposing, but it was difficult to pose a threat to the combination of Mu Tianfeng and Yan Jin.

Ye Haochuan quickly picked up Liu Shi’s ring and axe, approaching the fierce battlefield.

"You really... killed him?"

Seeing Ye Haochuan kill Liu Shi, the Old Woman nearly dropped her jaw in astonishment.

That was a demi-god level existence, and Ye Haochuan, a junior cultivator who just stepped into the Void God Realm Early Stage, could kill him in such a short time; it was truly incredible!

"Just luck!"

Ye Haochuan chuckled, raised Liu Shi’s axe, and swung it sharply towards Mu Tianfeng’s direction.

This axe, called the Soul Absorption Axe, was a rare soul device, reaching the level of a peak quasi-divine instrument.

Such a magical treasure was completely prepared for soul-attacking cultivators, capable of unleashing powerful soul attack methods, and even Ye Haochuan’s Creation Phantom Demon Technique would increase in power under the enhancement of this cultivation technique.

Ye Haochuan had already used the Xuanxian Order, now he had no means to harm Mu Tianfeng and Yan Jin.

But the Soul Absorption Axe was different; its attack was strange, targeting the usually fragile souls of ordinary cultivators, making anyone wary.

"What the hell is Liu Shi doing, how could he not even defeat a small Void God Early Stage trash, and instead got counter-killed?"

Yan Jin, seeing the Soul Absorption Axe in Ye Haochuan’s hand, became unsettled and without caring for her own image, began cursing.

She couldn’t fathom how a Void God Expert ended up dying at the hands of a Void God Early Stage junior.

"Damn it, not only did he die, but he also left his magical treasure to the enemy; this is really frustrating!"

Mu Tianfeng’s face turned even more unsightly because he could clearly see that the Soul Absorption Axe was slashing towards him.

He didn’t possess an ability like Perspective Eyes, thus couldn’t see the trajectory of the axe shadows, making it difficult to dodge.

Fortunately, although soul cultivators were few, they weren’t nonexistent; Mu Tianfeng had prepared some methods to deal with soul attacks.

"Soul Shield!"

An invisible shield appeared, protecting Mu Tianfeng’s soul.

However, he wasn’t a professional soul cultivator; this soul shield could block one axe shadow, but not the second.

Ah~

Mu Tianfeng let out a wail, his eyes turning scarlet.

Ye Haochuan’s soul wasn’t very strong, so it didn’t cause Mu Tianfeng’s soul to scatter, not even causing significant damage.

But the pain from the soul attack was truly unbearable!

The cultivation technique that was already forming in his hands was suddenly aborted due to the pain.

Seemingly in agreement with Ye Haochuan, as soon as Mu Tianfeng’s soul was injured, the Ghost Shadow swung its massive fist like a meteorite towards him.

Mu Tianfeng was panic-stricken; when he snapped back, trying to intercept it, it was too late.

Luckily, he had teammates; Yan Jin reached him first and saved him just in the nick of time.

However, this merely mitigated the crisis for a moment.

Ye Haochuan continued to swing the axe, countless invisible soul attack axe shadows silently raced towards them.
