Akumai wailed in agony, his voice piercing with despair and chilling. However, this did nothing to stop Shalltear and the stray arrows. At this moment, Su Yan, who had been waiting nearby, seized the opportunity and swung the Ten Directions Sword. The blade flashed with a dazzling cold light, carrying an incomparably sharp sword aura, and shot towards Akumai like lightning.
With a dull thud, the Ten Directions Sword pierced Akumai's body unhindered. The immense force of the impact left him unable to hold himself up, and like a meteor out of control, he plummeted downward. A puff of dust erupted as Akumai landed heavily on the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.

It's time to gather everyone together and discuss our next plan of action." With that, the two of them flashed away, speeding off into the distance like two bolts of lightning.
