Although the power contained in the giant wind blade was equally terrifying, it was precisely because the manipulation was somewhat sluggish that the power could not be concentrated into a single point to explode, unlike the power of Zhu Yuanqing's secret technique, which was highly concentrated.
Therefore, although the offensive power of both sides was roughly the same, the resulting effects were vastly different.
Given this situation, how could they possibly eliminate such a large number of vengeful spirits and the ghost wall they formed, and harm Wu Chengfeng, in the remaining one or two breaths?
At most, all we can do is deplete Wu Chengfeng's resources...
The decrease in the number of vengeful spirits will inevitably weaken the power of the Ghost Banner. Moreover, this is the result of the opponent's accumulation over many years, which is a huge blow to Wu Chengfeng's combat strength.
"These top talents from powerful forces are indeed not so easy to kill!"
Lin Xiuyuan sighed inwardly, realizing he had no choice but to abandon his murderous intent and instead focus on planning for the bigger picture.
However, Zhu Yuanqing did not give up. His gaze was cold as he looked around and came up with a plan. He continued to violently urge his magic power to maintain this powerful secret technique.
During a major war between the righteous and demonic factions, the ability to defeat Wu Chengfeng, a top prodigy on the opposing side, would undoubtedly have a significant impact on the future situation.
It can be said that Zhu Yuanqing's murderous intent at this moment is no less than Lin Xiuyuan's.
He wasn't going to give up yet, and soon he saw another opportunity!
instantly.
The spirit sword emitted surging flames, then spiraled upwards and rose directly into the sky.
The intention was quite clear: to bypass the ghost wall and directly kill Wu Chengfeng!
Wu Chengfeng's expression changed in an instant.
Countless vengeful spirits and malevolent spirits quickly spread upwards, entwining and trying to restrain the spirit sword.
However, the terrifying power, though unleashed, could not form a massive scale and was simply incapable of generating an equal force.
Moreover, Wu Chengfeng was suppressed by the Black Flame Eye, unable to move, and his divine sense was stagnant, making it impossible for him to control himself perfectly.
In an instant, as if flames had passed by, countless vengeful spirits were annihilated, turning into wisps of ashes that drifted away.
The spirit sword whistled, radiating intense heat and carrying terrifying spiritual power, as it slashed down towards Wu Chengfeng.
In an instant, Wu Chengfeng's eyes were illuminated by a fiery red light, revealing a hint of fear and unease, but not despair or terror...
...

"bite!"
Just as the spirit sword, carrying terrifying power, struck down to within ten feet of Wu Chengfeng's head.
Suddenly, a faint light emanated from beneath Wu Chengfeng's robes, gradually growing brighter and more dazzling. As the light burst forth, it formed a barrier that enveloped him.
The spirit sword, imbued with terrifying power, slashed down with all its might, yet failed to shatter it. Instead, it emitted a crisp clanging sound, as if it had struck some incomparably solid metal or stone.
Although he failed to break through, Wu Chengfeng seemed to have endured tremendous force, spitting out a mouthful of blood and flying backward.
"A magical armor? Does it have an automatic protective effect on its owner...?"
Upon seeing this scene, Lin Xiuyuan and Zhu Yuanqing instantly saw through the nature of this thing.
That aura was the most obvious; it was clearly a defensive spiritual treasure!
Moreover, it is an item that automatically protects its owner. Otherwise, even if Wu Chengfeng were wearing top-grade spiritual armor, he would be unable to move or operate at this moment, and would be unable to withstand the power of the spiritual sword, which would have a chance to take his life.
But now that it's a magical treasure, that idea is probably going to be in vain!
This instantly darkened the expressions of the two men. They had thought the attack would be effective, but they hadn't expected Wu Chengfeng to possess such a treasure.
However, it's to be expected that, given this background, having such a foundation is perfectly normal.
Zhu Yuanqing sighed and had no choice but to abandon his murderous intent, turning instead to strategize for the bigger picture.
He also noticed that the effect of the Blackfire Eyes was gradually fading.
He could only swing his sword twice more at most, not even having enough time to break through the barrier formed by the magical treasure.
Although the use of spiritual treasures is unrestricted and their power is generally terrifying, no less than that of one's natal magic weapon, many high-level spiritual treasures are so powerful that even Nascent Soul stage experts will try to snatch them up and keep them as part of their own resources. However, the extent to which a cultivator can unleash the power of such items depends on the individual cultivator's ability to do so. Someone like Wu Chengfeng can at most push his defensive power to its limit.
If the Blackfire Eyes are imprisoned for a long enough time, then there will still be a chance.
But at this moment, the power of the Blackfire Eye began to gradually fade...
Zhu Yuanqing had no choice but to abandon his killing intent and wield his spirit sword again to severely injure Wu Chengfeng, thus securing victory. This would achieve his original main objective without any effort.
Lin Xiuyuan, who was standing to the side, had the same thought. Seeing that the opportunity had been missed, he focused on manipulating the huge wind blade and even used his spare energy to activate the talisman. In addition to destroying the ghost hand that was still bombarding several heavenly ices in front of him, he planned to annihilate as many Yin spirits and vengeful spirits as possible.
Although this move cannot harm Wu Chengfeng himself, it can achieve the goal of weakening him.
In this short period of time, under Lin Xiuyuan's intense offensive, countless vengeful spirits and ghosts have been annihilated.
It is estimated that at least one-third, or even nearly half, of them were destroyed.
This greatly weakened the power of the Ghost Banner.
Wu Chengfeng's greatest reliance in cultivation and magic lies in the Ghostly Banner.
This move will inevitably deal a huge blow to its foundation and combat strength.
As three breaths passed, the power of the Black Flame Eyes began to fade.
But Zhu Yuanqing seized the last moment to swing his sword twice more, inflicting another heavy blow on Wu Chengfeng.
The magical treasure automatically protected its master. Wu Chengfeng was imprisoned by the Black Flame Eye and could not fully control the protective power. He was also affected by the aftershocks.
At this moment, Wu Chengfeng was knocked away three times, blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, and his overall aura was greatly weakened.
