Holy light, ancestral souls, emerald dreams... Apart from Daniel, the god of the whirlwind, everyone has some means to resist vengeful spirits, but they can only barely resist the onslaught of the siphoning soul.
The reason is simple: as a pure soul entity, the speed of the Siphon Soul is simply too fast. Even Daniel, who controls the gale, can only barely keep up with her speed, let alone launch an effective attack.
As a mid-stage seventh-tier dark god, even though Siphon Soul is not good at attacking, its basic attack strength already surpasses that of everyone else. A casual strike can tear apart various defensive moves, and if it uses some special moves that require charging, it can even cause serious injuries to everyone.
Of course, as a vengeful spirit, the true strength of the Siphon Soul lies in its rapid thinking and unpredictable soul attack methods. Daniel became the one who dragged the team down less than a minute into the battle, barely surviving only under the protection of his companions.
As for the others, they weren't much better off. The Holy Light of the Six-Winged Angels could repel the darkness, but the Siphon Souls ignored them completely. The Emerald Dream could take everyone into the dream, but it lacked effective means of attack and could only passively take hits. The Ancestral Souls were in a similar situation. They could protect Old Bach from soul attacks, but they couldn't effectively retaliate and could only use some ranged spells to track the opponent's movements.
The five-person team was in dire straits under the Siphon Soul's attacks, and counterattacks were even more difficult. Several counterattacks were launched but all failed, and they even suffered some injuries.
Ye Chen wasn't the only one who witnessed this scene; Wang Xinghe and Raphael also saw it. The mid-stage seventh-tier dark god was far more powerful than they had imagined.
"Ye Chen, the Dark Demon God has already crossed a star field. Aren't you going to make a move?" Wang Xinghe suddenly sent a message, asking in a slightly anxious tone.
The state of the five gods was unbearable to him. If things continued like this, and one of them were to perish, how long could the remaining four withstand the Siphon Soul's attacks? Perhaps they wouldn't even have enough time to give Ye Chen a spatial teleportation.
"We're already on our way!" Ye Chen said in a deep voice. Unbeknownst to him, the background behind him had changed; it was no longer the star field where the Abyss Fishmen were located, but a dark expanse.
As for the long dragon figure on Zhangwei Mountain, it has long since disappeared without a trace.
Like Raphael, Ye Chen did not teleport directly to the Siphon Soul's side, but instead sent the Candle Dragon over across a star field.
Even Raphael wouldn't dare approach such a location, let alone a mere fourth-tier lord like himself; the danger was immense.
"You're still here?" The primordial star drifted slowly through the starry sky and finally arrived beside a vast continent. Raphael was quite surprised to see the person who came. He didn't expect that the other party would choose to teleport to such a far place at this time.
“Besides controlling light and darkness, Zhulong is also a master who roams through time and space. A star field doesn’t take him much time!” Ye Chen said slowly. As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them noticed that the scenery in the picture had changed.
A giant dragon hundreds of kilometers long burst out of the darkness. Its flickering figure looked extremely illusory, but as its huge dragon eyes opened, everyone felt that the surroundings instantly brightened. Even in the dark starry sky, they could clearly see everything around them.
"Ah~~~~" The Siphon Soul suddenly screamed, and everyone felt a tremor in their souls. Even the various projections like Ye Chen and Raphael were greatly affected, as if something was invading their souls.
"Caw~~~" The three-legged golden crow in the sky suddenly let out a cry, which immediately wiped out the scream in Ye Chen's mind. After all, it was just a little echo from the projection, so it wouldn't have a big impact.
“Viewing via projection isn’t always safe! Powerful gods can even traverse the river of time, let alone a mere projection! Sound is only a relatively mild method, after all, it’s limited by the equipment. In many cases, the danger of the visuals can even kill a lord!” Raphael’s voice rang out again. Ye Chen didn’t know how the other had survived, but he was certainly much more experienced than he was!
"I've learned a lot!" Ye Chen nodded.
“Your dragon? It’s called a dragon, right? It’s quite strong!” Raphael said, looking at the figure of the Candle Dragon.
It was only then that Ye Chen realized that Zhulong was still fighting with the opponent, and he turned his gaze back to the projection.
At this moment, the screams of the Siphon Soul had stopped, or rather, were interrupted by the Candle Dragon. Not only that, the swooping Candle Dragon even left a burn mark on the Siphon Soul's body, which was the damage caused when it swooped down earlier.
“Yes, dragon, Zhulong!” Ye Chen nodded and said.
"It's not quite like the dragons we usually see, but it's more like the dragons in ancient Chinese legends!" Raphael said. Ye Chen was truly surprised by the other's erudition; this could really be considered a legend on Earth.
"Indeed, it is the dragon from ancient Chinese legends. Your erudition amazes me!" Ye Chen said respectfully. No matter the time, the strong and the learned are always worthy of respect, and Raphael clearly possessed both.
"What kind of erudition is this? If you live long enough, you'll always need something to do to pass the time, and eventually you'll know everything!" Raphael said calmly.
At this moment, the war situation in the star field changed again. The attack of the Candle Dragon caused the Soul of Siphon to panic briefly. Her cautious nature made her hesitate to step forward, but the Candle Dragon was not afraid at all.
Shrinking its size to a dozen meters long, it then used its ability to travel through time and space to flash through the starry sky and launch an attack on the Siphon Soul.
“Woo~~~” A familiar wailing sound came from the starry sky. It was the cry of the Siphon Soul. At this moment, she was in a state of high alert and fear. She did not choose to confront the Candle Dragon head-on, but relied on her speed to dodge.
A sharp mind brings not only the ability to think, but also a sense of vigilance and fear of the unknown. Before figuring out Zhulong's strength and identity, Siphon Soul did not dare to make a move easily, because the previous attack had really hurt her.
"Daniel, summon the gale to restrict her movements; Emerald Dragon, use the power of dreams to influence her thinking and reduce her reaction ability!" Old Bach, who had finally escaped, quickly understood the situation and immediately gave the order to everyone.
The appearance of Zhulong gave them hope of defeating the Siphon Soul.
