"Ahh..."
Yao Chen's illusory spiritual body let out a pained wail, his voice reverberating across the night sky.
The dense black mist from the Nether Soul Banner wrapped around him, its oppressive aura suffocating. Chains forged from the mist bound his limbs, locking him in place.
The moment the black mist touched his spiritual form, it reacted like concentrated acid on flesh, hissing and emitting white smoke. Yao Chen's features contorted into a mask of anguish, his struggles becoming more frantic.
"Hall of Souls! You bastards! I'll fight you to the end!" Yao Chen roared, his voice filled with fury and despair.
His eyes, bloodshot and wild, flared as his resolve hardened. The next moment, his entire body erupted into forest-white flames—the Bone Chilling Flame. The surrounding air grew icy, and frost began forming on nearby surfaces as the temperature plummeted.
As the Heavenly Flame enveloped him, the oppressive black mist from the Nether Soul Banner faltered. The chains binding Yao Chen's limbs melted away, consumed by the flames' icy intensity.
Chenfeng, observing from a safe distance, frowned deeply. "As expected of a Heavenly Flame," he muttered under his breath. "Even with the Soul Controlling Banner, I can't subdue him outright."
The Bone Chilling Flame's natural restraint against spiritual oppression was proving troublesome.
His frustration boiled over as he turned to Ling Ying and the Purple Electric Marten, who were idly spectating from afar.
"Why the hell are you two just standing there?! Beat him to death!" Chenfeng bellowed, his voice laced with irritation and urgency.
The startled pair quickly exchanged glances before springing into action, diving toward the embattled Yao Chen with renewed ferocity.
Originally, when they saw that Yao Chen's spiritual body was controlled by the Nether Soul Banner, they thought that Chenfeng could handle him alone, so they stopped taking action.
"Ah!"
Although he broke free from the shackles of the Nether Soul Banner, Yao Chen has obviously consumed a lot Dou Qi.
In addition, he was already injured, so at this moment facing the attacks of Ling Ying and the Purple Electric Marten, he was unable to parry their attacks successfully at all. He was suppressed by one person and one magical beast.
Moreover, there is a Nether Soul Banner activated by Chenfeng watching eagerly from the side. If he is not careful, he will be shrouded in black mist and suffer heavy damage.
...
"What is that black mist, and why is it so powerful?"
"It's so weird. The black mist suppressed that Dou Emperor expert as soon as it appeared."
"As expected of a Dou Emperor warrior, what kind of flame is this? Looking at it from a distance makes me feel cold all over. "
On the city wall, many strong experts from Wu Tan City watched the battle outside the city, talking about it with surprise on their faces.
Today's battle can be said to have opened their eyes to the huge gap between themselves and the powerful Dou Emperor.
In front of powerful Dou Emperor expert, they were like ants, who could be crushed to death at any time.
"It seems that the winner will be determined soon!"
Ya Fei on top of the Miteer Auction House building concluded as she looked at the illusory figure being besieged.
Her face was full of surprise.
Could it be that a rare Dou Emperor expert would die here today?
Dou Emperors are rarely seen in the Jia Ma Empire. Now in this small Wu Tan City, not only did three powerful Dou Emperors appeared to have a fight, but one of those Dou Emperors was about to die here.
This made Ya Fei a little unbelievable.
"After tonight, Wu Tan City will probably become famous..."
Ya Fei murmured to herself as she watched the battle in the sky.
At this moment, the battle over the grove has indeed come to an end.
Yao Chen's soul body became more and more transparent, as if it was about to disappear, and was riddled with holes.
Facing the combined attacks of Ling Ying and the Purple Electric Marten, as well as the Nether Soul Banner from the side, he was helpless and despaired in his heart.
"I didn't expect that I, Yao Chen, would travel across the land of Dou Qi Continent proudly for decades, and now I would die in this god forsaken place."
Yao Chen's face was full of unwillingness, but looking at Ling Ying and Xiao Zi in front of him, he felt helpless in his heart.
He is doomed today!
"It's a pity that I delayed with that kid Xiao Yan for three years. I was originally planning to accept him as my disciple, but now I can only owe him in the next life."
Xiao Yan's figure flashed through Yao Chen's mind, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Perhaps because he felt that he was doomed this time, Yao Chen actually had many regrets in his heart.
"It's time. Let's see how you can resist my Nether Soul Banner this time."
Looking at Yao Chen, who was severely injured, a cold light flashed in Chenfeng's eyes, and he once again activated the Nether Soul Banner to attack Yao Chen once more.
Under the control of Chenfeng, the Nether Soul Banner turned into a black light, carrying the black mist all over the sky, and instantly enveloped Yao Chen's soul body.
"Ah..."
The moment he came into contact with the black mist, Yao Chen couldn't help but let out a painful wail. At this moment, he was unable to activate the Bone Chilling Flame anymore, and could only let the four chains lock him with a look of despair.
"Absorb!"
Chenfeng thought, and a huge pulling force surged on the chains, pulling Yao Chen's soul body directly towards the Nether Soul Banner.
"No..."
With a desperate scream, Yao Chen's soul body was directly absorbed into the Nether Soul Banner.
After collecting the soul body, the Nether Soul Banner turned into a black light again and fell into the hands of Chenfeng, revealing the Nether Soul Banner true appearance.
"Let me out, what kind of place is this!"
"Damn Hall of Souls!"
Yao Chen's roaring came from the Nether Soul Banner, and his tone was extremely vicious.
"Stop screaming, once you enter my Nether Soul Banner, don't even think about getting out."
Hearing Yao Chen's extremely unwilling curses, Chenfeng showed a smile.
"Don't worry, I will help you avenge the blood feud between you and the Hall of Souls."
After becoming his soul slave, Yao Chen can devour other souls and grow stronger.
The Hall of Souls is the most abundant force out there in soul bodies. As long as Yao Chen becomes the soul slave of the Nether Soul Banner, Chenfeng will naturally not be stingy with him in the future.
Maybe Yao Chen can even return to his peak strength or even make a breakthrough to the next realms.
Moreover, he can also take revenge on the Hall of Souls, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.
"Who are you? Are you really not from the Hall of Souls?" Hearing this, Yao Chen shouted in confusion.
"Of course I am not from the Hall of Souls. Yao Chen, obediently become my soul slave and I will not treat you badly. I know that you have always wanted to know the whereabouts of your traitorous disciple, Han Feng. If there is a chance, I will let you devour him yourself."
With a sneer on his lips, Chenfeng activated the Nether Soul Banner and said, "Nether Soul Banner, refine him for me!"
As Chenfeng finished speaking, the Nether Soul Banner dark fog appeared again.
"Ah..."
The next moment, Yao Chen's painful voice sounded from the Nether Soul Banner. It sounded extremely painful, as if he was suffering some inhuman torture.
"From now on, you will be my first soul slave."
Listening to Yao Chen's screams, a smile appeared on Chenfeng's face.
It is definitely an exciting thing to take the famous Saint Yao Chen as a soul slave.
...
"It's over..."
"A powerful Dou Emperor fell like this?"
"What kind of existence is that black mist? It's so terrifying!"
As the battle over the grove came to an end, the people in Wu Tan City Everyone watched as the place gradually returned to calm, with complicated expressions on their faces.
The powerful Dou Emperor warriors who usually only existed in legends, today not only three appeared at once, but one also died.
This is definitely a big event that will shock the entire Jia Ma Empire soon.
After word spreads, this small city of Wu Tan will become completely famous in the Jia Ma Empire.
