The power of this sword gleam caused the void to resonate with a thunderous roar. The entire demonic battlefield below seemed to momentarily halt its rhythm because of Xu Yang's strike.
Yet, this incredibly terrifying sword strike, aimed at the surface of the Qilin Domain, yielded a result that astonished everyone.
"What?"
Xu Yang looked ahead in disbelief; the Qilin Domain was completely unharmed!
Feng Xiu, on the other hand, finally burst into unrestrained laughter.
"Xu Yang, do you know? I have waited for this day for far too long. I can finally suppress you with my true strength. Today is the day I will tear you to pieces!"
Feng Xiu became utterly ecstatic. It seemed that the sudden surge of his presence made him recklessly prepare to overdraft his Qilin power. No matter the cost, he would seize this opportunity to completely crush Xu Yang.
Whoosh!
A purplish-black light flashed once more. This time, Feng Xiu wielded his complete Qilin Domain, pressing it towards Xu Yang's location.
As the domain force drew closer, bolts of lightning constantly flickered in and out of existence in the surrounding void, completely blocking any other paths Xu Yang might use for spatial movement.
This true divine power made Xu Yang feel genuine pressure.
It must be said that the Qilin power's amplification of Feng Xiu's overall abilities was astonishing. The extent of the combat power he could gain depended entirely on how much Feng Xiu was willing to sacrifice.
And now, when he completely abandoned his restrained mindset and became reckless, that was when Feng Xiu was at his most powerful.
"Thousand-Ton Lightning!"
Feng Xiu roared with all his might. The terrifying domain force around him rapidly gathered within the mouth of the Qilin totem above his head. The next moment, the Qilin totem violently opened its gaping maw and, aiming at Xu Yang's head, unleashed a true bolt of lightning!
The lightning-attribute power, imbued with Qilin force, was like a terrifying giant sword capable of cleaving the heavens and earth, striking towards Xu Yang's position.
*Crack!*
The next moment, a monstrous hole was forcibly torn in the void behind Xu Yang.
"Oh my god, it's terrifying!" someone exclaimed. "The Qilin power actually shattered the void!"
"Indeed," another voice added, "true divine power remains unparalleled. No matter how strong the Demon Lord's foundation is, he probably can't withstand this divine power."
Just then, Alusha also looked at Xu Yang, her face full of worry, as everyone present understood the terrifying nature of this divine domain.
Xu Yang instinctively raised his Asura Sword, holding the longsword horizontally in front of him.
The terrifying Asura power continuously emanated a dense black essence, pushing the Asura Sword's power to its absolute limit.
"Asura Sword Edge, activate!"
Xu Yang roared and once again swung his sword at the massive Qilin totem before him.
In an instant, all light in the void completely vanished, and the entire world was swallowed by an endless black.
At the edge of the sky, the colossal Asura Soul reappeared. It seemed as if just one hand could easily grasp the Qilin totem before it in its palm, as the entire sky appeared to be completely filled by this immense Asura totem.
"Little Qilin," a voice boomed, "finding a mere puppet, and you begin to feel proud?"
This was clearly the voice of the Asura God, and terrifying pressure swiftly enveloped the entire Myriad Demon Abyss battlefield.
"Asura, we meet again," the Qilin God responded. "I knew you would eventually become that fatal menace. I should never have allowed you to achieve godhood back then."
The Asura scoffed, looking at the Qilin. "Do you think I'm unaware of your ambition? Even if I no longer have the power to change everything now, my successor, Xu Yang, will certainly be a world-shattering figure. The new era of the entire continent will ultimately be ushered in by him."
The Asura totem did not last long, disappearing quickly, but it made Xu Yang's sword strike incredibly sharp and unstoppable.
As expected, Feng Xiu suffered a severe blow! Cracks appeared on the Qilin totem on his body, and even the countless bolts of lightning within his Qilin Domain surrounding him flickered unsteadily.
On one hand, Feng Xiu hadn't fully mastered this power, having only recently broken through to the Heaven-Defying Demonic Attack System. On the other hand, his physical resilience, having endured such a long battle, was already overwhelmed and could collapse at any moment.
Due to these various reasons, he ultimately failed to withstand the power of Xu Yang's sword strike.
"Ughhh!"
Suddenly, Feng Xiu let out a painful roar. The Qilin totem, now out of control, quickly vanished.
However, Xu Yang noticed that the Qilin bloodline within Feng Xiu seemed to have become even more berserk.
"Listen," Xu Yang advised, "you should get a better grasp of this power before facing me again. Otherwise, even if we don't get to have a peak confrontation, this power might torment you to death."
Feng Xiu sneered, "Are you pitying me? You're not worthy of that! Xu Yang, watch closely. This is my greatest trump card in this battle."
As Feng Xiu's words fell, he suddenly condensed a dark red essence of his bloodline. However, this essence didn't target Xu Yang but instead aimed at the demonic battlefield below.
Not good!
This thought instinctively flashed through Xu Yang's mind. The next moment, this massive red essence forcefully slammed into the center of the demonic battlefield. The fallen demonic warriors, after being enveloped by this blood-colored essence, quickly resurrected in a short period.
And the blood-red light enveloping every resurrected demonic warrior caused them to exude an incredibly rampant and ferocious aura of slaughter. All the resurrected demonic warriors immediately turned their allegiance, joining the Northern Jin Sword Alliance's forces and beginning to slaughter their own demonic kin.
"No! What kind of power is this?"
The demonic elders were completely stunned. They had never seen such a power and could hardly believe that the Qilin Mountain lineage, a divine heritage, possessed such an eerie and brutal soul-controlling method.
Little did they know, this was no longer a natural inheritance of Qilin Mountain. Instead, Feng Xiu had integrated the soul-controlling methods originally belonging to the Tuoba lineage into his own cultivation techniques and amplified them using the power of the Qilin bloodline.
"You're truly something," Xu Yang remarked. "It seems your years as a minion for the Northern Jin Tuoba family weren't wasted. You even acquired their core cultivation technique."
Feng Xiu sneered, "The Tuoba family's cultivation manuals? I actually obtained them from inside their imperial palace. After merging and modifying them with my own techniques, I devised this heaven-defying method that can resurrect the dead. If I hadn't made such preparations," he continued, "do you think our Sword Alliance cultivators alone could have consecutively conquered several great empires?"
Xu Yang had considered this question before but had never found the answer. It was only now, hearing Feng Xiu's words, that Xu Yang finally understood that among truly terrifying combat techniques, soul control would always rank supreme.
