Chapter 996: The Sixth-Grade Yuan Emperor Realm Soul Controlling Killing Talisman!
“That wanted kid from the Seven Star Sword Sect appears to be the very person in front of us!”
Wei Yidao muttered beside Yang Baikun.
The son of Ran Jianxuan from the Seven Star Sword Sect, along with his mount and protector, had been slain. This incident became widely known, prompting Ran Jianxuan to issue a bounty for the culprit’s capture. Naturally, the Golden Sword Sect received this information as well.
Thus, Wei Yidao instantly recognized the young man and his tiny avian companion!
Indeed, the ones who had suddenly appeared were none other than Su Yi, the Green Emperor, Yin-Yang Dark Emperor, and Su Xiaoshuai!
As they made their way back, they abruptly detected the Yuan Emperor Realm energy fluctuations radiating from Yang Baikun and his group.
Upon approaching, they quickly noticed Huang Jian’s presence and saw that he was encircled.
Without hesitation, Su Yi commanded the Green Emperor to take immediate action.
This intervention allowed them to intercept Yang Baikun’s fatal strike in time and rescue Huang Jian.
“Overlord Sect members? And wanted by the Seven Star Sword Sect as well?”
Yang Baikun recalled the boy’s words and found himself scrutinizing Su Yi.
He had never heard of the Overlord Sect before. It was either a fabricated name or an utterly insignificant force.
Yet, the individual who had intervened displayed astonishing cultivation prowess, forcing Yang Baikun to steady himself and proceed cautiously.
Even more surprising was the fact that Huang Jian had pledged allegiance to this so-called Overlord Sect!
“The Golden Sword Sect dared to challenge me. The consequences will be severe!”
Before Yang Baikun could ponder further, Su Yi’s voice turned frigid and heavy.
“No one escapes today—eliminate them all!”
Yin-Yang Dark Emperor, standing at Su Yi’s side, responded immediately, his aura surging as he charged toward the Golden Sword Sect members.
Simultaneously, the Green Emperor also made his move, delivering a powerful palm strike that stirred the air into chaos and devastation.
A dazzling eruption of energy blanketed the battlefield, engulfing the Golden Sword Sect members in a crushing assault.
The Green Emperor and Yin-Yang Dark Emperor launched a combined offensive, aiming for total annihilation.
“They are terrifying monsters—at the peak of the fifth level of the Demonic Emperor Realm!”
Feeling the overwhelming energy radiating from their adversaries, Yang Baikun’s face turned ashen, as though he had been struck by lightning!
Both Beast Emperors stood at the pinnacle of the fifth level of the Demonic Emperor Realm, their formidable strength capable of obliterating everyone present.
“We can’t fight them! Retreat now!”
As expected, Yang Baikun shouted the order and led the Golden Sword Sect members in a rapid retreat, unwilling to face the Green Emperor and Yin-Yang Dark Emperor head-on.
At the same time, his heart trembled with disbelief.
The Overlord Sect had not just one but two immensely powerful Beast Emperors. The realization was utterly shocking.
“You dare raise a hand against my Overlord Sect? Then you shall all perish!”
Yin-Yang Dark Emperor’s voice thundered as he unleashed an overpowering force.
In unison, he and the Green Emperor launched a ferocious offensive, their attacks weaving an inescapable net of energy that sealed off all avenues of escape for the Golden Sword Sect members.
“Break through now!”
Wei Yidao roared, slashing his long blade desperately, though his heart was heavy with despair.
The two monstrous demon beasts, standing at the peak of the fifth-grade Demonic Emperor Realm, could annihilate them effortlessly.
Had they chosen to retreat earlier upon sensing danger, they might have had a sliver of hope. But now, escape was nearly impossible. Barring unforeseen circumstances, the Golden Sword Sect members were doomed.
As expected, the Golden Sword Sect warriors began sustaining injuries within moments. Under the immense suppression of the Green Emperor and Yin-Yang Dark Emperor, some even spat blood.
Yang Baikun, the strongest among them, barely held on. His pale complexion betrayed his struggle—it was only a matter of time before he succumbed.
“Hmph!”
The Green Emperor and Yin-Yang Dark Emperor scoffed coldly, their gazes icy.
Under such absolute suppression, the Golden Sword Sect’s annihilation was imminent.
“You really think you can keep us here? Don’t be so naive!”
At that moment, Yang Baikun, driven into a desperate corner, roared in defiance.
With urgency, he pulled out an object from his spatial pouch. Palm-sized, he gripped it tightly before rapidly channeling his spiritual energy into it. Without hesitation, he hurled it toward the Green Emperor and Yin-Yang Dark Emperor!
“Damn it! A Soul Controlling Killing Talisman!”
Su Yi’s expression darkened the moment he saw Yang Baikun’s action. Without delay, he grabbed the injured Huang Jian and swiftly distanced himself from the impending disaster.
He had encountered such an item before during an auction at Lingbao Pavilion. Later, Chu Changhuan, a disciple of Sacred Mountain, had even used one against him.
If not for the Spirit Shielding Talisman gifted by Lingbao Pavilion back then, Su Yi would have perished without a trace.
Thus, he understood just how perilous that talisman was!
The specific grade of the Soul Controlling Killing Talisman Yang Baikun had unleashed was unknown, but caution was paramount—taking unnecessary risks was not an option.
“Buzz…”
In an instant, an overwhelming aura erupted from the talisman, enveloping the Green Emperor and Yin-Yang Dark Emperor in a suffocating force.
The sheer power it radiated was formidable. Even with their cultivation, the two Beast Emperors sensed danger.
“Fall back!”
Without hesitation, the Green Emperor and Yin-Yang Dark Emperor retreated while simultaneously deploying layers of defense.
Directly confronting the Soul Controlling Killing Talisman would be reckless—it wasn’t worth the potential consequences!
“Boom…”
The talisman exploded in a thunderous detonation, shaking the heavens and the earth as though heralding the apocalypse!
The forests and mountains trembled, the land quaked, and dust billowed into the sky!
The force of the explosion rippled outward, obliterating all trees within a several-mile radius, flattening the terrain and leaving a massive crater at the epicenter!
“Using a Soul Controlling Killing Talisman? Impressive, Golden Sword Sect. We should pursue them!”
As the dust settled, Yin-Yang Dark Emperor stood alongside the Green Emperor, both wearing grim expressions.
They locked onto the Golden Sword Sect’s retreating figures, preparing to give chase.
“No need to pursue!”
Su Yi’s voice rang out, immediately halting their movements.
He stepped forward with Huang Jian and Su Xiaoshuai, prompting the Green Emperor and Yin-Yang Dark Emperor to regroup at his side.
“That was at least a sixth-grade Yuan Emperor Realm Soul Controlling Killing Talisman. For the Golden Sword Sect to possess such a thing…”
Su Yi murmured before continuing, “This commotion will definitely draw powerful figures. We should leave immediately. We’ll settle our score with the Golden Sword Sect another time!”
“Understood, Master!”
The Green Emperor and Yin-Yang Dark Emperor responded, swiftly departing alongside him.
Though regretful that Yang Baikun and his subordinates had escaped, Su Yi remained vigilant. The fact that the Golden Sword Sect wielded such a talisman indicated their hidden strength. Moving forward, he would tread carefully, ensuring he never underestimated them again.
