"Ancient Soul from the Netherworld Void God Realm?"
Lan Xueyi had never heard of such an existence.
Ling Fan quickly explained, "There are no living beings in the Netherworld Void God Realm, only these ancient souls that can survive for a long time. These ghastly things cause immense harm to living beings and love to devour them. Stay close to me and do not get caught by it! Damn it, this thing is actually a seven-path level ancient soul!"
Ling Fan felt immense pressure.
His current strength could at most contend with a Six-Path Heavenly Venerate, but the difference between a Seven-Path Heavenly Venerate and a Six-Path Heavenly Venerate was worlds apart. The gap in power was extremely vast. Even if he were alone, escaping from a Seven-Path Heavenly Venerate would be incredibly difficult, let alone protecting Xueyi.
If it were outside, it would be fine.
He could borrow the power of the Supreme Ancestral Dragon.
But this Luofeng Cave was a supreme forbidden land, suspected to be connected to the Netherworld Void God Realm. Even the power of the Supreme Ancestral Dragon was completely blocked and could not penetrate here. Now, Ling Fan and Lan Xueyi were truly in a desperate situation.
"No wonder the Phoenix Emperor so readily agreed to let us in. He knew from the start that our entry meant certain death!"
Ling Fan suddenly felt a strong killing intent towards the Phoenix Emperor.
However, he didn't have the luxury of time to dwell on these thoughts.
A terrifying hissing sound approached, as if space itself was distorting and disintegrating under the attack of the fearsome ancient soul. Ling Fan dared not delay. Pale golden dragon scales instantly appeared on his hands, forming a fist, and he fiercely punched towards the dark green semi-illusory bone hand!
Bang!
Ling Fan's body was struck with immense force and sent flying.
"Brother Fan!"
Xueyi exclaimed, her gaze towards the ancient soul filled with chilling intent. How dare it injure her husband! She would never forgive this thing!
Xueyi raised her delicate hands, and terrifying Spiritual Phoenix Calamity Fire flowed out. She brought down a palm strike, causing the surrounding chaotic mist to explode, revealing a terrifyingly shaped existence behind it. The creature was as tall as a mountain, its entire body a dark green, semi-transparent soul form, with a green face and fangs. Xueyi's palm strike hit the ancient soul, but it couldn't even shake it.
However, Xueyi's unique Spiritual Phoenix Calamity Fire, when it touched the ancient soul, emitted a sizzling black gas, as if it were being melted by Xueyi's Spiritual Phoenix Calamity Fire.
It was a pity that Xueyi's cultivation realm was still too low. If she were at the Heavenly Venerate realm now, the damage to the ancient soul would be much more substantial.
"Roar!"
The dark green ancient soul let out an enraged roar. The invisible sound waves swept out, and Xueyi's body was involuntarily sent flying backward. The ancient soul pursued relentlessly, its giant dark green bone claws grasping like a persistent leech.
"Scram!"
A roar came from behind, and a colossal Ten Thousand Dragon Seal, as vast as a mountain, slammed towards it with extreme speed.
Clang!
A dull, massive roar erupted in the vast, empty space.
The Supreme Ancestral Dragon Seal lived up to its reputation as the supreme treasure of the Heavenly Dragon Realm, managing to wound the ancient soul. The dark green bone hand suddenly exploded into a patch of chilling dark green mist, but after a moment, the mist twisted and writhed, reforming into the shape of a bone hand.
Ling Fan's expression became extremely grave.
These ancient souls from the Netherworld Void God Realm were truly troublesome. Ordinary means had no effect on them. Only supreme-grade treasures like the Supreme Ancestral Dragon Seal, or Lan Xueyi's special Spiritual Phoenix Calamity Fire, could exert some restraint. Other methods were out of the question.
"My Nirvana Calamity Fire shares a similar principle with Xueyi's Spiritual Phoenix Calamity Fire. If her Spiritual Phoenix Calamity Fire works, perhaps mine can too!"
Ling Fan's eyes suddenly lit up.
Facing the seven-path ancient soul that was once again attacking aggressively, Ling Fan's body suddenly erupted with Nirvana flames. The flames grew increasingly vigorous, forming a divine armor of fire that enveloped his entire body. Bathed in the fearsome radiance of the flames, he charged headlong towards the ancient soul!
Bang!
The moment they collided.
Flames scattered everywhere.
Ling Fan was sent reeling by the power of the seven-path ancient soul, feeling extremely uncomfortable. If it weren't for his Nirvana Calamity Body and his cultivation of the Myriad Artifact Transformation Art reaching a profound level, any other Six-Path Heavenly Venerate here would have been torn to shreds by the power of this seven-path ancient soul.
However, Ling Fan was not the only one suffering. The ancient soul was equally uncomfortable. Upon being touched by Ling Fan's Nirvana Calamity Fire, it immediately emitted more black gas, letting out a chilling, sharp scream. Its two bone claws frantically slammed against the void.
"Roar!"
The ancient soul roared, its sound waves spreading outwards, annihilating all the Nirvana Calamity Fire on its body.
It became even more enraged, its two empty eye sockets shooting out a terrifying, deathly gray light as it ferociously attacked Ling Fan.
A powerful oppressive aura descended!
But Ling Fan did not retreat an inch.
Because behind him was Xueyi.
Roar!
Ling Fan also let out a fierce roar, his entire body transforming into a giant, soaring Azure Dragon. Its sharp, pale golden dragon claws tore through the void, and it opened its maw, biting fiercely into the ancient soul, intending to tear it apart.
Bang!
The ancient soul's power was terrifyingly immense. Ling Fan's colossal dragon body, millions of feet long, was violently sent flying by the ancient god's fierce collision. But Ling Fan charged forward again, adopting a life-or-death combat stance, and for a time, he fought the seven-path ancient god to a standstill.
However, what made Ling Fan's pupils constrict fiercely was that all the damage he inflicted on the ancient soul would soon be repaired by the Void God Qi permeating the Luofeng Cave. This ancient soul was like an unkillable cockroach.
Although Ling Fan could also absorb the Void God Qi with the Samsara Divine Cauldron and wasn't afraid of depletion, this drawn-out battle was not a solution. Who knew if there were other ancient souls here?
If another ancient soul appeared, Xueyi would be in danger!
Ling Fan felt an inexplicable sense of frustration.
Samsara Divine Cauldron!
Yes!
A flash of inspiration struck Ling Fan's mind.
Since the Samsara Divine Cauldron could refine and absorb Void God Qi, perhaps it could also restrain this ancient soul?
Ling Fan's thoughts stirred.
A colossal, boundless cauldron emerged from the void. Just a glimpse of its corner revealed an eternal, supreme aura and a divine might that could crush heaven and earth. The Samsara Divine Cauldron was not what it used to be; it had significantly recovered after refining and devouring a Heavenly Venerate expert!
Clang!
The Samsara Divine Cauldron descended with boundless might.
The ancient soul's empty eye sockets actually revealed a trace of fear.
It raised its two dark green bone claws to resist, but with a tremor from the Samsara Divine Cauldron, its dark green bone claws, even harder than Dao artifacts, began to twist and shatter silently.
Moreover, this shattering was irreversible and almost unrecoverable.
In an instant.
A terrifying seven-path level ancient soul was shattered by the Samsara Divine Cauldron. Furthermore, the Samsara Divine Cauldron tilted its mouth, and the ancient soul transformed into a dark green torrent, which was completely swallowed into the Samsara Divine Cauldron.
