Legend of Swordsman

Chapter 3090: Soul Annihilation

As soon as the exquisite pagoda collapsed, his physical soul was defenseless.

Fortunately, his soul was much tougher and stronger than ordinary people. After the powerful soul attack destroyed the exquisite pagoda, the remaining power was not very strong. Although it also severely injured Jian Wushuangʼs physical soul, however, it did not completely destroy his soul.

”Humph!” Jian Wushuang snorted and his face turned pale.

Of course, this was his own disguise. His soul was like his divine body. Even if it directly collapsed, he could rely on divine power to regenerate it. So what if his soul was severely injured.

However, the soul attack of the black phantom was not aimed at him alone. Instead, it was aimed at everyone in front of him.

Jian Wushuang could easily resist the soul attack because of his soul defense and the uniqueness of his own soul.

However, the others were not so easy.

Buzz, soul power swept across.

It was as if time and space had completely stopped.

Then, whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Three figures fell directly to the ground.

They were the red-haired man, the black-robed young man, and the beautiful woman in golden armor from the Dao Palace.

It was true that the three of them were genius disciples of the Dao Palace, and their strength was also very impressive. However, the three of them were not too strong in terms of their souls.

At that moment, even though the soul attack that the black phantom unleashed was aimed at everyone, the soul attack that struck them was still extremely powerful.

The three of them were unable to block it, and their souls had already been directly killed. These three geniuses were already dead!

”Leng Chong, Mo Ao, and Xie Zi!!”

Bai Xiaoʼs expression changed drastically, and he let out a cry of shock and anger.

Bai Xiaoʼs strength was about the same as the red-haired man and the other two. In fact, his soul was not much stronger than the other three, but Bai Xiaoʼs identity was different.

He was not only a genius disciple of the Dao Palace, but also the number one genius of the current era of the Young Divine Sect. The Young Divine Sect placed great importance on him, so they gave him many life-saving items. In terms of soul defense…he had a soul defense sacred treasure in his body, and its level was not low. That was why he was able to survive this soul attack.

There was also Duan Yu, who had also relied on his soul defense treasure to barely survive.

As for Xiong Tao, as the number one genius of the Dao Palace, he had even more life-saving methods. The soul attack only caused a slight change in his expression, but it did not cause much of an impact.

As for the two level four true saints that followed Duan Yu, because they were genuine level four True Saints, their souls were also at this level. Although they were affected by the soul attack just now…they still survived.

After a wave of soul attack, just as the black phantom had said, his energy clone was too weak. Using one wave of attack was already the limit. Although it caused a certain amount of damage…his energy clone also quickly collapsed.

”Letʼs go!”

The four black-robed men did not hesitate at all. They fled the void as fast as they could.

The four black-robed men ran for their lives as fast as they could. After running for a long distance, they finally stopped on a barren mountain.

The four black-robed men looked at each other. Their expressions were very strange.

”As expected, we werenʼt prepared enough. We still paid the price for acting rashly,” the long-haired black-robed man said.

”Thereʼs nothing we can do. Time is too short and we donʼt have enough time to prepare. After all, we only have one chance, and itʼs fleeting. We have to seize it,” the other black-robed man said.

They had acted rashly and hastily this time. It could even be said that they were not prepared at all.

One had to know that the force they were in was extremely huge and tyrannical. Although it could not compare to the three great Freedom Alliances, the difference was not too great. They had countless experts, and fourth level True Saints like them…were nothing in their force.

But this time, it was too hasty.

Because they only found out after the genius banquet that the palaceʼs number one genius, Xiong Tao, had actually participated in this genius banquet and did not have any experts by his side, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for assassination.

Of course, their forces did not want to miss this opportunity. Therefore, even though they knew it would be difficult, they immediately dispatched the five rank four True Saints led by ʼ39ʼ, in addition, they also carried the Jade Talisman of Lord Long Xingʼs energy doppelganger to assassinate him.

They had already organized the strongest force in such a short period of time. Originally, with the five of them, if they were lucky, they could have killed Xiong Tao and the few geniuses who had arrived at the palace.

However...accidents continued to happen.

First, the appearance of Duan Yu and his two guards, and then the fight between Xiong Tao and Jian Wushuang made them realize that there was also Jian Wushuang, who also had the battle strength of a rank four True Saint. All of these added together…the battle strength of four rank four True Saints was not much inferior to their lineup.

At that time, they knew that the probability of success was very low.

However, they had no choice but to take action.

They did not expect Jian Wushuang to give them a huge surprise as soon as he took action. He killed 39, the strongest among them, with a thunderbolt.

Next, they only let Lord Long Xingʼs energy doppelganger take action.

”Fortunately, although thirty-nine died in this assassination and used a special token that Lord Longxing refined, this token is only the lowest level token. Weʼve already killed three genius disciples of the Dao Palace, so weʼve already made a profit. The trouble is that this assassination failed. That Xiong Tao will definitely be more cautious in the future. Iʼm afraid we wonʼt have such an opportunity again in the future,” said the long-haired black-robed man.

”Not only that, we have another harvest.” Another black-robed man said, ”Itʼs the man who killed 39.”

At the mention of Jian Wushuang, the four black-robed men immediately became very serious.

”Yes, this man is also one of our harvest, and itʼs a great harvest.” The long-haired black-robed man said excitedly, ”A first level True Saint can kill 39, who has reached the peak of the fourth rank, directly. Itʼs incredible. His talent is obviously higher than Xiong Tao, but we donʼt know whether he is from the Dao Palace or not. If so, we should kill him earlier than Xiong Tao!”

The other three black-robed men also nodded heavily.

”No matter what, this mission has already ended. Letʼs go back and report this matter to the higher-ups. As for what we should do next, weʼll leave it to the higher-ups of the sect to decide for themselves.”
