"All bark and no bite, looks like your sword formation isn't all that great after all?"
A cold smile crept across Liu Ruyan's lips as she stared intently at Qin Feng, making no attempt to conceal her mockery.
Qin Feng curled his lip slightly, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes, and sneered, "Is that so?"
"You woman are so obsessed with saving face that you're willing to suffer for it. You clearly used all your strength just now to barely break through the sword formation, and now you have the nerve to say that my sword formation is no good?"
Liu Ruyan snorted and said coldly, "Qin Feng, is there nothing else you can do besides talking?"
"If you're so capable, then knock me to the ground first before spouting nonsense!"
Qin Feng smiled slightly, his eyes revealing a half-smile, as if he could see through Liu Ruyan's thoughts. He said sarcastically in a low voice, "Liu Ruyan, after knowing you for so many years, I only realized today how adorable you are."
Liu Ruyan's face turned cold, and she replied in a chilling tone, "Don't call me Liu Ruyan anymore. I have reiterated many times that I am Lingxi, the Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan, not the Liu Ruyan you know!"
Qin Feng stared intently at Liu Ruyan, remained silent for a moment, then frowned slightly and slowly said, "Liu Ruyan, do we really have to go this far?"
Liu Ruyan said calmly, "Things have come to this point, there's no point in saying more."
Qin Feng sighed slightly, a sense of helplessness and emotion welling up in his heart, but he did not say much. Instead, he immediately activated the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation to launch another attack.
This time, he went all out, drawing all four swords of the Zhuxian Sword simultaneously, which spun rapidly around Liu Ruyan, continuously releasing surging sword energy.
These sword energies flowed endlessly like a surging river, each strike containing boundless power.
Faced with such a fierce offensive, Liu Ruyan dared not be negligent in the slightest.
She focused intently, raising her defense to its limit. Her hands moved swiftly, unleashing beams of light that intertwined to form a sturdy net of light, attempting to block Qin Feng's attack.
However, Qin Feng's sword energy was too fierce, and each strike could easily tear through Liu Ruyan's defenses.
Despite her best efforts, she continued to sustain injuries.
As time went on, the battle intensified.
Qin Feng's swordsmanship became increasingly skillful, while Liu Ruyan gradually felt powerless.
She knew that if things continued like this, she would eventually be defeated.
So she decided to go all in and use her last resort.
She clasped her hands together, chanted incantations, and a dazzling light burst forth from her body, instantly illuminating the entire space.
Within the light, a phantom-like giant sword could be vaguely seen, emanating a chilling aura.
With a resolute expression, Liu Ruyan reached out and gripped the giant sword, slashing fiercely at Qin Feng.
Upon seeing this, Qin Feng's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly used his movement technique to dodge.
But the giant sword was extremely fast, following Qin Feng like a shadow, and caught up with him in the blink of an eye.
At the critical moment, Qin Feng let out a soft shout, and his divine power surged wildly, continuously pouring into the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
The sword formation shone brightly, forcefully blocking the giant sword's attack.
The two sides were deadlocked, and neither could gain the upper hand.
Just then, a cunning glint flashed in Qin Feng's eyes. He secretly activated a mysterious technique, preparing to launch a surprise attack on Liu Ruyan.
The light was as dazzling as the sun, making it impossible to look directly at it.
Suddenly, Qin Feng shouted, and the sword aura of the Four Swords of Zhuxian changed. The originally surging sword energy instantly subsided and turned into a thin sword beam, which shot rapidly towards Liu Ruyan.
Liu Ruyan realized Qin Feng's intention and tried to dodge to the side, but it was too late.
The sword light pierced through her body with lightning speed, and she spat out a mouthful of blood as her body flew backward.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Qin Feng pressed forward, giving Liu Ruyan no chance to catch her breath, intending to severely injure her and render her unable to fight again.
Just then, a melodious bell rang out from the sky, and a mysterious power descended.
Qin Feng immediately sensed the mysterious power. Startled, he looked up and saw an old man with white hair and a youthful face descending from the sky, like an immortal descending to earth.
Qin Feng stared wide-eyed, carefully observing the scene before him. To his surprise, this mysterious visitor was not a physical entity, but rather a faint phantom of consciousness.
Nevertheless, the phantom exuded a suffocating sense of oppression, as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on one's heart.
Upon seeing the newcomer, Liu Ruyan knelt down without hesitation and respectfully said, "Welcome to the Spirit Devouring King!"
At the same time, both sides, who were engaged in fierce combat, stopped what they were doing.
All the Soul Devourers knelt down in mid-air, shouting in unison, "Welcome the Soul Devourer King!"
Their voices were unified and filled with reverence. The entire scene was solemn and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
"He's actually the Soul Devouring King!" Qin Feng's face instantly turned extremely gloomy, like the calm before a storm.
The Devouring Spirit King is a being at the half-step Heavenly Dao Realm, and his terrifying strength is chilling.
Even though what appears now is just a wisp of the Soul Devouring King's consciousness, its strength is absolutely not to be underestimated.
It's like a sleeping tiger; although it hasn't fully awakened yet, its power to intimidate remains.
At the same time, everyone on Qin Feng's side had an extremely ugly expression, as if shrouded in dark clouds.
The eight half-step Heavenly Dao Realm experts from the Outer Heavens were all aware that they had gone to the World Origin Space together to deal with the Devouring Spirit King.
They knew all too well that the Soul Devouring King's strength was terrifying beyond measure, like an insurmountable mountain that inspired awe and fear.
Now, facing this phantom of what might be a wisp of the Soul Devouring King's consciousness, they were filled with fear and apprehension.
Because they knew perfectly well that even a trace of the Soul Devouring King's power was enough to pose a huge threat to them.
It felt like standing on the edge of a cliff, where a slight misstep could send you plunging into an abyss.
The phantom of the Soul Devouring King did not react; he was staring intently at the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
After a moment, the phantom of the Soul Devouring King said with a sigh, "I never imagined that after countless years, I would have the honor of witnessing the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation!"
"What a pity, your strength is too weak, and you were unable to unleash the full power of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation!"
"Otherwise, even if I were to come in my true form, I wouldn't be able to do anything to you!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng frowned, his expression shifting between light and dark.
The Devouring Spirit King actually recognized the Four Swords of Zhuxian, and judging from his tone, he seemed capable of easily breaking the Zhuxian Sword Formation.
What should I do?
The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation is one of Qin Feng's greatest assets. If it is broken by the Devouring Spirit King, their side will likely face dire consequences today.
