If Xu Yang and the Skyscraping Ancestor, now bound to him, were truly so easy to deal with, how could these powerful evil soul warriors have been suppressed by the Northern Dynasty's forces for hundreds of thousands of years? Ultimately, they had overestimated their own strength.
Soon, Xu Yang, bearing the Skyscraping Totem and accompanied by Goddess Yanxia, returned to the void battlefield and confronted these individuals.
"Heh heh, what are you old geezers staring at? Our boss Xu Yang has already arrived on the battlefield. If you don't want to die, then obediently crawl back to where you were sealed. Don't come out and embarrass yourselves anymore. Otherwise, in my boss Xu Yang's fury, not only you few rotten scoundrels, but even the entire Northern Dynasty, will absolutely not be spared."
Before Xu Yang could speak, Long Kun, who always enjoyed wielding borrowed power, spoke again, showing off on behalf of his boss. Little did he know that as soon as Long Kun finished speaking, the ancient evil soul leader in the void let out a sinister sneer.
"We are speaking with your boss. Who are you to interject?"
The evil soul leader likely intended to make an example of someone. Unfortunately for him, he chose Long Kun as his target, intending to butcher him like prey. Embarrassingly, the evil soul leader unleashed a powerful surge of demonic soul energy, locking onto Long Kun's body as a response.
Long Kun scoffed, stomped his foot, and brilliant starlight rapidly enveloped his body. With his immense inner power, he blocked the terrifying surge of demonic energy.
"In front of your Grandpa Long Kun, you'd better understand your own capabilities. Otherwise, you'll only be humiliating yourself."
Long Kun was full of confidence in his power. After completely deflecting the demonic energy attack, he immediately gathered the brilliant starlight into his fist and, combining it with the Earth-Shattering Fist technique Xu Yang had taught him earlier, launched a punch.
An incredibly powerful surge of elemental energy, imbued with the brilliant light of stars, surged forth, striking forcefully towards the ancient evil soul leader in the void.
Boom! A deafening roar erupted. The evil soul leader's two trusted lieutenants simultaneously struck, and the combined demonic essence of all three exerted an immensely powerful suppressive effect on Long Kun below.
Even with Long Kun's formidable strength, he couldn't help but grit his teeth, revealing a pained expression from the increased pressure.
However, Long Kun valued his reputation. How could he possibly lose face in front of his boss and his subordinates?
Showing no intention of retreating, he struggled to hold on, and the ground beneath his feet began to crack endlessly.
Ling Yao, unable to watch any longer, was about to intervene but was stopped by Xiao Hua beside her. The two girls exchanged glances, and Ling Yao immediately understood the deeper meaning hidden in Xiao Hua's eyes.
As expected, Xiao Hua knew Xu Yang best. She had already surmised that in the face of such power, any intervention by others would be futile. Not only would it fail to achieve the desired effect, but it would also diminish the prestige of the Beast Corps.
The best course of action was for boss Xu Yang to personally intervene and suppress the strongest of these ancient evil souls simultaneously. Only then could the Beast Corps truly regain its honor.
Indeed, at the very moment Xiao Hua stopped Ling Yao, Xu Yang powerfully struck from the other side of the sky. From his palm, a potent demonic aura erupted, astonishing all observers. Little did they know, this demonic power was none other than the inherited strength passed down to Xu Yang by the Skyscraping Ancestor, one of the eighteen old gods behind him.
"What? What is going on? How can this boy, with a human body, wield the power of the demonic source? Theoretically, this shouldn't be possible. Unless... there's only one explanation: his cultivation has already reached the Boundless Realm, where no form of power or law in heaven and earth can fundamentally restrict him."
The third strongest ancient evil soul on the right side spoke with a look of shock. Little did he know, his judgment was clearly correct. Xu Yang had not only entered their so-called Boundless Realm, but his spiritual state and overall strength had far surpassed the established limits of the current main continent.
Even the so-called Supreme Gods would gain no advantage against Xu Yang, let alone a few mere evil souls like themselves, who still relied on the Skyscraping Ancestor's essence to maintain their cultivation.
"You mere brats dare to act presumptuously before Sir Xu Yang? Get lost immediately! Even my power alone can easily suppress you. Now, I have bound my inherited power to Sir Xu Yang's life force. Sir Xu Yang is now my true master and the inheritor of my faith. If you continue to oppose Sir Xu Yang, you oppose me. Think carefully about what kind of evil souls you are. Do not do anything whose consequences you cannot bear, or you will surely become a tragedy."
Today, the Skyscraping Ancestor felt an instinctive sense of superiority when facing these ancient evil souls. After all, for hundreds of thousands of years, these evil souls, dormant throughout the Northern Imperial City, had maintained their cultivation by devouring the demonic energy he released.
It was understandable for the Ancestor to adopt a superior stance, but he hadn't anticipated that this group of ancient evil souls, having broken free from their captivity and filled with resentment, would no longer heed him.
The Skyscraping Ancestor had somewhat overestimated his influence over these evil souls.
As expected, the Ancestor's words completely disregarded the dignity of these evil soul powerhouses, naturally infuriating the strongest among them, the demonic soul leader of this group of brothers. He burst into laughter.
"I must admit that for hundreds of thousands of years, we had no freedom whatsoever. We strengthened our cultivation and sustained our life force entirely by devouring your demonic source power, Ancestor."
"But now, we are no longer as we were; we have broken free from this cage. And you, who once shone gloriously in the Kunlun Divine Dynasty, have long since vanished into the river of time."
"In this current era, true freedom is our real pursuit. So please, Ancestor, do not make harsh demands of us from a master's position. Today, we will under no circumstances easily let go of these prey that have appeared before us."
"The bloodline of the beast tribe and their life essence are the best nutritional supplements for us demonic cultivators. Even your authority, Ancestor, means nothing to us today."
Indeed, these individuals were determined to oppose the Beast Corps under Xu Yang's command. And for the Skyscraping Ancestor, one of the eighteen old gods, to be openly defied by the very beings he once sustained with his power left him utterly humiliated.
