Jiang Fan, however, had never considered merely surviving.
The Source of Luck, Source of Soul, Source of Shadow, and Evil Crow Domain simultaneously struck Jiang Fan's body, leaving him no time to react. Even a Venerable of the Heavenly-Human Two Declines would find it hard to escape death. A sinister grin already stretched across the Evil Crow Venerable's lips, as he envisioned Jiang Fan being torn to shreds.
*Crack—*
But an unusual, crisp cracking sound, without any warning, resonated from within Jiang Fan's body. A crystalline ice butterfly shattered into fragments and drifted out from his body. It was the butterfly gifted by Grand Venerable Bingxin. It was capable of nullifying the effects of domains.
He had once asked Grand Venerable Bingxin if it would also be effective against the Sources. Grand Venerable Bingxin replied that all paths eventually converge. If it could nullify domains, it would most likely nullify Sources as well. And now, upon testing, it was indeed as she had said.
Before they could react, Jiang Fan decisively counterattacked!
"Soul Prison Lock!"
The Soul Prison Lock, derived from the "Three Soul-Slaying Forms," could seal souls no more than one level higher than the caster's own. As it was limited to the High Earth-tier, it was only effective against those in the Nascent Soul Realm. However, Jiang Fan was now in the Soul Transformation Realm, and his soul had reached that level as well. When unleashed, it would still have a certain effect. And his target was precisely the Luck Giant King! Sealing this most threatening being for just a few breaths would be enough!
"No good!"
The Luck Giant King's eyelids twitched violently as he immediately sensed danger approaching. In a critical moment, he swept his long tongue, pulling the Evil Crow Venerable from behind him to the front.
"Ah! What are you doing?!"
The Evil Crow Venerable was greatly startled. Before he could react, the Soul Prison Lock struck him. He instantly lost control of his body. He was both shocked and enraged. How dare he use him as a shield? He had just saved the Soul Giant King, making him a hero to the Ancient Giants! How could they treat him this way? It was all Jiang Fan's fault! Wouldn't it be better if he just died? Why struggle so desperately?
The Evil Crow Venerable, seething with anger, fixed his soul-gaze on Jiang Fan, wanting to witness his death firsthand! The Luck Giant King, having narrowly escaped, would surely not spare him!
Indeed, the Luck Giant King's vertical eye gleamed with a chilling severity: "Indeed, I cannot give you any more chances!"
The Source at his brow was activated once more. The Soul Giant King and Shadow Giant King also simultaneously activated their Sources. They were also thoroughly alarmed. This person was simply too dangerous!
Jiang Fan's attack failed, but he had already anticipated it, instantly teleporting away and vanishing from his spot. All three Sources simultaneously struck empty air. The Luck Giant King inwardly acknowledged the trouble. Jiang Fan, now in the Soul Transformation Realm, also possessed the ability to teleport. He was no longer someone they could easily crush.
What made his brow twitch even more violently was the sudden appearance of an orange lotus flower above their heads. The lotus rapidly expanded, and destructive lightning surged from it. The Luck Giant King's expression shifted slightly as he roared, "Get clear!"
The Soul Giant King and Shadow Giant King simultaneously leaped away. They barely managed to dodge as the lotus exploded, unleashing destructive lightning that swept the surroundings. The Shadow Giant King, already injured by the Bodhisattva and moving slower, had one of his legs blown off instantly. The Soul Giant King quickly rushed over to assist him.
But unexpectedly...
From his side, a tricolored divine rainbow silently extended, piercing towards his body.
"Watch out! He's invisible!" the Shadow Giant King urgently warned.
The Soul Giant King's expression changed drastically. He decisively unleashed a powerful soul attack, sweeping the surroundings.
"Soul Shock!"
However, for Jiang Fan, now in the Soul Transformation Realm, this no longer posed the fatal threat it once did. With a single Soul Shock, he dispersed the incoming soul attack. The Soul Giant King's pupils constricted sharply, his eyes filled with the shadow of the tricolored divine rainbow. He couldn't dodge this sword.
In the nick of time, the Luck Giant King sprang forward, the Source at his brow rapidly rotating: "Bad Luck!" Mysterious fluctuations attached themselves to the tricolored divine rainbow. What should have been a killing blow strangely deviated from its trajectory, grazing the Soul Giant King's shoulder and carving boundless cracks into the earth. The Soul Giant King broke out in a cold sweat. Jiang Fan, in the Soul Transformation Realm, was simply terrifying. It was four against one, yet he had imprisoned one and nearly killed another!
The Shadow Giant King, meanwhile, sneered as he surveyed his surroundings: "With Lord Luck Giant King present, you can't defeat us! I doubt your temporary Soul Transformation method will last much longer, will it?"
As long as they held out until Jiang Fan's cultivation dropped, it would be his end!
But to their surprise!
A bone-chilling voice resonated in the Shadow Giant King's ear.
"Is that so?"
"Flawless Realm!"
A profound realm instantly swept over the Shadow Giant King's body!
In that instant, the Shadow Giant King understood. Jiang Fan's attack on the Soul Giant King had been a feint. He knew that the Luck Giant King would intervene if he attacked anyone. Therefore, his true target was not the Soul Giant King! It was him, the Shadow Giant King!
His heart instantly plummeted. He clung to a sliver of hope that Jiang Fan's so-called "Flawless Realm" was merely a support-type domain. As the realm entered his body, he detected no immediate danger. As he wondered, the Luck Giant King and Soul Giant King in the distance both had their pupils constrict sharply. They watched in horror as they focused on the Shadow Giant King's severed leg.
Before their eyes, the Shadow Giant King's leg injury strangely began to spread towards his thigh and abdomen. In just the blink of an eye, his right leg festered until nothing but decay remained, not even bone. The delayed onset of pain finally made the Shadow Giant King unleash an uncontrollable, sharp howl: "Ah! My leg, what's happening to my leg?"
"What kind of realm is this?"
Panicked, he quickly raised his hand and self-amputated his right hip, hoping to halt the injury's spread. But this was no mere virulent poison. As long as there was an injury, it would expand infinitely. The wound from his self-amputated hip rapidly spread towards his abdomen, chest, and head. In the blink of an eye, his entire body began to rot. Like a paper effigy thrown into a fire, he was rapidly consumed.
He clutched his chest, then his head, sending a terrified plea for help to the Luck Giant King: "Save me... I don't want to die..."
Before he could finish, the injury had spread throughout his entire body. All his flesh and blood rotted away, leaving no trace, turning into nothingness. Even his massive skeleton disintegrated in mid-air as it fell, transforming into scattered white bone ash. Before it even touched the ground, it all melted away like snowflakes.
A Giant King, simply due to a leg injury, was forcibly annihilated by the Flawless Realm.
This sight utterly shocked both the Luck Giant King and the Soul Giant King. The Luck Giant King murmured gravely, "This realm is too overbearing, too extreme!" He couldn't imagine what price Jiang Fan had to pay to wield such an extreme Dao. The Soul Giant King, meanwhile, felt a chill run down his spine. He vaguely sensed that Jiang Fan had chosen to kill the Shadow Giant King first as a form of torment. He was meant to die in despair and terror. This was to achieve his goal of avenging Jiang Wuya.
He shivered, then blustered, "Lord Luck Giant King, don't hold back! He is a serious threat to our Ancient Giants!"
The Luck Giant King readily agreed. That terrifying realm was definitely the bane of the Giant Kings!
He scanned the surroundings. Unable to detect Jiang Fan's aura, he decisively shattered a pouch at his waist with his palm. Inside was a fragment of black bone. It emanated the Source energy from a Five-Star Giant King: The ability to foresee the future!
The Luck Giant King's mind immediately caught several future images concerning Jiang Fan. One image showed Jiang Fan attacking and killing the Soul Giant King a breath later. His eyes gleaming ferociously, he wasted no time. A long tongue shot out from his mouth, piercing with uncanny precision towards the Soul Giant King's back.
He coldly declared, "It's over!"
