Xu Xinnian reacted quickly, twirling his longsword and unleashing a golden sword aura imbued with lightning power towards the Chaos Beast.

Wherever the sword energy passed, space distorted.

It made a crackling sound, as if the air itself was on fire.

The beast of karma roared and swung its thick claws, easily dispersing the sword energy.

Upon seeing this, Xu Xinnian immediately activated the Hunyuan Pearl.

The Chaos Pearl instantly burst forth with intense light, within which countless runes surged.

In an instant, a huge vortex of spiritual energy formed!

It frantically absorbed the surrounding chaotic energy and the immense karmic force of cause and effect.

At the same time, he activated the Heart-Clearing Bell.

The bell kept ringing, and the ringing became more and more urgent.

Like a dense drumbeat, each beat slowed the movements of the beast of karma.

The beast of karma seems to be enraged by the sound of the bell!

It opened its blood-red maw and spewed out a torrent of black karmic energy.

It surged toward Xu Xinnian—

Xu Xinnian dodged to the side.

At the same time, he swung his longsword, creating a spiritual energy barrier in front of him.

It barely managed to withstand the onslaught of karma.

But the impact still forced him back several steps, leaving deep footprints on the ground beneath his feet.

Xu Xinnian knew he couldn't just sit back and take a beating.

He concentrated his mind and perfectly fused the spiritual power within his body with the chaotic energy and the power of the immortal treasure.

His body exploded, emitting a bright light.

The longsword in his hand was also enhanced by this power, and runes flickered on its blade.

The power of lightning surged even more intensely, emitting a dazzling blue light.
