Peerless War God

Deep in his soul sea, Xilo shouted and reminded.    

"Soul Devouring Demon Bug?" Chen Xiao's eyes were filled with hostility as he stared at the flying demon bug, recalling some unpleasant memories.    

Back then, when he was attacked by the forces of the Dark Shrine outside of Gray Cloud City, he fell into the trap of the demon bug, causing Fu Zhenghong's soul to be heavily injured and his lifespan to be greatly reduced.    

Now that his enemy was here, his eyes turned red. In an instant, Chen Xiao's eyes were filled with ferocity as he stared at the black shadow.    

This guy was from the Dark Shrine. As expected, Li Zhan and the Dark Shrine were closely related. Damn it, he actually joined hands with such a wicked force. What exactly did Li Zhan want?    

Could it be that Li Zhan really only wanted to seize the throne when the Divine Emperor was at his weakest?    

Or could it be that Li Zhan had a bigger plan?    

He did not know, nor did he have the time to think about it. The Soul Devouring Demon Bug flew over at a very fast speed, and in a flash, it was in front of him.    

Instinctively, Chen Xiao conjured a blood light shield, but the Soul Devouring Demon Bug laid on the shield and crazily bit into it. Soon, it opened a hole and drilled in, taking the opportunity to enter Chen Xiao's forehead soul sea and disappear.    

"Ah!"    

Chen Xiao screamed and fell from the sky, unconscious.    

Seeing Chen Xiao fall from the sky, the Third Prince and the others were so scared that their faces turned pale.    

"This, how could this be? He lost, this is impossible."    

The Third Prince's face flushed red as he shouted loudly. He could not believe what he had just seen.    

He knew very well that if even Chen Xiao could not stop the opponent, then he would be dead for sure if he was killed.    

For a moment, the Third Prince's face was ashen. Could it be that the heavens were really going to kill him?    

"Your Highness, hurry up and leave. We can't stay here for long. Perhaps there is still a chance of survival. We can escape."    

Ying San and the other two shouted, urging the Third Prince to leave quickly.    

As the Third Prince of the Peerless Dynasty, he naturally had many life-saving trump cards. Immediately, a Greater Teleportation Talisman appeared in the Third Prince's hand. As long as he injected his mana, he would be able to escape far away. Even if the opponent was an Immortal Realm expert, it would be almost impossible for him to catch up.    

However, in that case, it would be equivalent to giving up on the others. The Third Prince was still hesitating.    

This made Ying San extremely anxious. He continued to urge, "Third Prince, what are you waiting for? Even Chen Xiao was defeated. We can't stop this killer. Let's go, Your Highness. Don't let us die in vain."    

"Your Highness, please leave quickly."    

"Your Highness, please hurry up and leave."    

The guards said anxiously. Their voices were filled with tears of blood. Even if they knew that staying behind to protect the rear was certain death, they still had to escort the Third Prince away. Their loyalty could be seen through the sun and moon.    

The Third Prince was moved. His eyes were red, but he still did not move. He said indifferently, "I don't believe that Chen Xiao would be defeated so easily and die under the opponent's blade. I don't believe it. I want to see it with my own eyes."    

"Your Highness, you can't do that." Ying San tried to persuade him, but he was so close to kneeling down.    

The Third Prince said with a determined expression, "Alright, stop talking. I have already made up my mind. I will only be satisfied if I can see it with my own eyes."    

Seeing that his persuasion had no effect, Ying San had no choice but to accept his fate. He guarded the Third Prince behind him with all his attention.    

The Third Prince looked anxious as he clenched his fists. His bones were turning white from the excessive force.    

"Chen Xiao, you won't die so easily, right? You can't be disappointed."    

In midair, the black shadow saw that his attack had succeeded. He laughed arrogantly, "Heh, a mere body cultivator. You have brute strength, but you deserve to die under my precious insect."    

The black shadow sheathed his saber and glanced at the Third Prince and the others. He ignored them and walked towards Chen Xiao, who had fallen to the ground, in a slow and steady manner. He wanted to collect the spoils of war.    

"A strong immortal-level expert should have quite a few treasures on him. This time, I won't lose out."    

The black shadow thought. His body moved and arrived beside Chen Xiao. He raised his hand and skillfully threw out a ball of flames, intending to destroy the evidence and take the storage ring from Chen Xiao's hands.    

"Pu!"    

The flames burned Chen Xiao's body, but it did not turn into ashes as the black shadow had expected. Instead, his body was not damaged at all.    

"Hmm?"    

The black shadow was stunned for a moment. His eyes were filled with doubt. What was going on?    

He had never seen such a situation before. By the time he came to his senses, it was already too late.    

Was he trying to fake his death?    

"Not good."    

The black shadow was shocked. He quickly exerted force under his feet, wanting to fly up into the air to widen the distance, but he was still a step too late.    

"Whoosh."    

A cold light flashed past, directly aiming at the black shadow's head. The black shadow raised his hand to block, but his arm was pierced through. Blood splattered all over his body, and a bloody mist burst out from his body. With a wail, the blood light on his body surged, and he immediately fled far away. He used a secret technique to burn his lifespan, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared.    

On the ground, Chen Xiao suddenly opened his eyes and jumped into the air. His Spiritual Sense quickly spread out in an attempt to search for the other party's traces.    

However, there was no trace of him. The other party had fled very quickly and decisively. He had used a secret technique, and he had no thoughts of turning back.    

"What a pity. I actually let him escape. I didn't expect this guy to be so afraid of death. He didn't hesitate to burn his lifespan to escape. Hmph, he's lucky."    

Chen Xiao snorted coldly.    

In the depths of his soul sea, Xi Luo said with a calm face, "Since he escaped, then so be it. He can escape for a while, but he can't escape forever. He was hit by your Soul Stealing Sword, and his soul was greatly damaged. His strength will definitely drop, and his soul will be left with your sword intent imprint. If he meets you again, he will definitely die."    

In front of Xi Luo, there was a black cage that was like a bird cage. There were lightning snakes winding around it, crackling and making noises. The Soul Devouring Demon Bug was locked inside, and it screamed ferociously.    

"Is this the Soul Devouring Demon Bug?"    

Chen Xiao asked curiously as he looked at it with his divine sense.    

At a close distance, the Soul Devouring Demon Bug was very small, only the size of a fingernail, but it could penetrate through magic power and attack a cultivator's soul. It was very powerful, and it also had a strange and terrifying face. It looked like a human, but it also looked like a demon. It was quite terrifying.    

"Yes, this kind of bug is very common in the Demon Area. However, even in the Demon Area, there are no demons who dare to provoke the Soul Devouring Bug. Once you provoke it, you will die without a doubt. It is a very terrifying existence."    

Xilo explained.    

Chen Xiao stared at the Soul Devouring Bug in the lightning bird cage and asked, "Is it very afraid of the power of thunder?"    

Xilo shook his head and said, "No, to be exact, it is afraid of the power of heavenly might contained in your thunder magic power."    

"Heavenly might? Could it be the Longevity Soul?" Chen Xiao was startled and came to an understanding.    

Xilo smiled, "You are right. It is the Longevity Soul. The condensation of the Longevity Soul is to borrow the power of the Heavenly Dao. With your comprehension of the Heavenly Dao, it is even more powerful. It contains a trace of heavenly might, which is compatible with the Heavenly Dao. When combined with the thunder magic power, it is the greatest bane of the Soul Devouring Demon Bug. Of course, the prerequisite is that you are strong enough. Otherwise, you will still die."    

Chen Xiao understood that all things were born and died with each other. There was no absolute strong or weak.
