These two figures, which closely resemble Yuan Hong, are not his true form, but rather two fragments of his soul.

Yuan Hong coveted the "Soul Devouring Immortal Technique" and plotted against the Black Fiend Immortal Palace for a long time. He once separated three strands of his soul to protect the clansmen who were entrusted with important tasks.

One of the fragments was given to Yuan Huan, but Yuan Huan was sent to the lower realm for various reasons and eventually died on the Tianhuang Continent. That fragment of his soul also disappeared, and no news came back.

These two fragments of soul remained dormant in the minds of the two individuals, waiting to be triggered at crucial moments.

And that's how this scene came about.

Yuan Hong's two separate souls merged into one, unleashing a sword beam.

The sword's light was dazzling, making it impossible to look directly at it, and it timely blocked Kurosaki's death-like sword light.

Bang.

A loud bang.

Then came the rolling air currents that raged in all directions.

The two fleeing individuals quickened their pace with the air currents and in the blink of an eye, they were out of danger and returned to the Yuan family's ranks.

Yuan Hong's divided soul transformed into a stream of light, instantly returning to his side and entering his brow.

Seeing this, Kurosaki was furious and glared at Yuan Hong, saying fiercely:

"You really have ill intentions. These two have been in the Black Fiend Immortal Palace for so long, they can be considered veterans. And yet they are from your Yuan family. You really are cunning."

Yuan Hong smiled smugly, "Second Palace Master, you flatter me. Didn't you say you wanted to see how I broke your great formation? Are you satisfied with this result?"

Kurosaki didn't respond to his words, but instead said coldly:

"So what if we break through their formation? We're just back to square one now. Do you think you have the upper hand?"

Yuan Hong did not refute. Kurosaki was telling the truth. After breaking through the great formation, the situation was still even, and he had no advantage.

He couldn't help but glance at Yan Lie, who had retreated to a distance. He wished Yan Lie could help.

Yan Lie noticed his gaze, smiled knowingly, but made no other comment; his meaning was quite clear.

However, Yuan Hong was still very confident in himself, and he couldn't afford to lose face now. His gaze was cold and firm as he said:

"Is that so? Then let's see what you've got. Let me see if you, Kurosaki, have improved over the years."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Jinghong Sword trembled, and a sharp, high-pitched sword cry rang out, its blade pointing directly at Kurosaki.

He was like a peerless sword, exceptionally sharp and imposing.

With a swift movement, he thrust out his sword, unleashing a dazzling sword light that contained complex Daoist principles, resembling a world unto itself.

Qin Feng recognized this move; he had seen Yuan Hong use it when he was on the Tianhuang Continent.

It was used to fight against divine punishment back then, but I've forgotten what it was called. It was very powerful; even the Heavenly Punishment Thunder Sword was forced to retreat by this move.

Kurosaki sensed the sharp sword strike and dared not be careless. His aura surged, and he became fierce and sinister, his whole body shrouded in black mist.

The black aura emanating from his body, along with the malevolent energy used to construct the grand formation, surged into the immortal sword in his hand at an extremely rapid speed.

The sword emitted a chilling, eerie light, which was quite sinister and unsettling.

His eyes were particularly chilling, his gaze sharp as a knife, and his face contorted with hatred, making him even more terrifying and unsettling.

He roared, his voice loud but not resonant, like a sinister voice crawling out from underground.

He thrust out his sword, and a beam of sword light shot out. The small wisp, like a black rope, suddenly grew larger in the air, transforming into a giant python that would devour anyone it could.

The giant python was entirely black, exuding a menacing aura.

It opened its blood-red maw and swallowed Yuan Hong's thin sword light whole.

Seeing this, Yuan Hong sneered, "If this is all you're capable of, you might as well call out Black Fiend."

Kurosaki felt extremely humiliated and angry. He was about to curse, but before he could even speak, his slightly open mouth opened even wider.

He saw something that he could hardly believe.

Yuan Hong's dazzling sword light was indeed swallowed by the pitch-black giant python, but in an instant, the sword light burst out and vertically sliced ​​the giant python in half from head to tail.

The giant python then vanished.

Kurosaki knew that Yuan Hong was very strong and that only his older brother, Hei Sha, could deal with him.

He was probably no match for them, but he never expected to be defeated so quickly and so thoroughly.

Seeing that dazzling sword light, still full of power, rushing towards him, made his scalp tingle.

He immediately concentrated all his strength on defense. Yuan Hong was too strong; he would deal with this move first.

He repeatedly drew circles with the immortal sword in front of his chest, stirring up the surrounding immortal and malevolent energy.

As he moved, a strange scene unfolded.

He originally carried a sword, but now it looks more like he's carrying a black umbrella.

His sword is the umbrella handle, and the other energy is condensed into the umbrella surface and ribs in a peculiar way.

Kurosaki, still holding the umbrella, did not relax his expression. He used the umbrella to shield himself from Yuan Hong's dazzling sword light.

The sword light arrived in an instant, striking Kurosaki's black umbrella with incredible speed.

Thud, thud.

Two loud noises rang out almost simultaneously.

One was the loud bang of the sword light hitting the black umbrella, and the other was the delayed sound of the sword light piercing the giant python earlier.

The black umbrella in Kurosaki's hand has been destroyed and has reverted to its original form as a sword.

He himself was struck by the sword and forced to retreat repeatedly, blood spilling from his mouth, his face filled with hatred and terror. This Yuan Hong was truly terrifying.

The duel between the Golden Immortals was a real eye-catcher, and everyone witnessed Yuan Hong's strength this time.

Ao Ling couldn't help but exclaim, "This old man is so strong! He almost killed that person with just one sword strike!"

Qin Feng's expression was very solemn as he slowly spoke.

"This Yuan Hong is no ordinary man. His swordsmanship was extremely profound just now. This time, he used his true form and was many times stronger than when he was on the Tianhuang Continent."
