However, the second-level peak Martial Emperor cultivator in front of him has head-on combat skills comparable to the third-level peak Martial Emperor cultivator, and it is unlikely that he is also proficient in the soul.
Buzz~
Just as the Soul-Devouring Cone attacked the cultivator, Yang Qi used the method of the virtual world without hesitation. Almost at the same time, the cultivator's body paused slightly.
"What a powerful virtual world method!"
The cultivator felt uncomfortable and his expression changed slightly. Just as Yang Qi guessed, he was not good at the soul, so facing the suppression of the virtual world, his performance was not much better than that of an ordinary second-level cultivator at the peak of the Martial Emperor.
Bang!
The cultivator swung the pseudo-source divine weapon in his hand and directly met the attacking cone shadow. The next moment, the cone shadow was blocked. Looking at the blocked cone shadow, he was obviously stunned for a moment.
After all, after the previous fight, he was already very clear about Yang Qi's strength and means, but how could the cone shadow in front of him be resisted so easily
"not good!"
Almost at the same time, the practitioner felt a sharp pain coming from the depths of his soul, as if his entire soul was about to be pierced and torn apart.
"Soul Soldier!"
The cultivator's face changed drastically. The lethality that could be unleashed by a cultivator who was skilled in soul techniques and used soul weapons was definitely not something he could resist.
“Ah~”
The severe pain coming from the depths of his soul made the practitioner scream, and at the same time, his body retreated violently.
Under the attack of the Soul-Devouring Cone, the aura of the second-level Martial Emperor cultivator became noticeably disordered. It was obvious that the opponent's soul had been severely damaged under the attack of the Soul-Devouring Cone.
"The unexpected effect of the Soul-Devouring Cone is truly amazing!" Seeing this, Yang Qi couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Although the Soul Devouring Cone is a soul weapon, it can burst out with elemental force attacks, and it feels very intimidating. If one does not know in advance that the truly terrifying aspect of the Soul Devouring Cone is its soul attacks, and does not mobilize soul power for defense in advance, even a cultivator at the third level of the peak of the Martial Emperor would suffer a heavy loss if he is not careful.
But Yang Qi knew that the confusing effect of the Soul Devouring Cone was not omnipotent. Practitioners of the same level with strong perception could still find that the power contained in the cone shadow was different from ordinary elemental force attacks as long as they carefully sensed it. In addition, when practitioners were fighting, they were actually on guard against soul attacks.
It's just that he has reached the peak level of Martial Emperor. Because no cultivator who has reached the peak level of Martial Emperor with his soul has been born in any of the major source universes, cultivators at the peak level of Martial Emperor often do not pay special attention to soul methods, which is why they suffer losses without noticing.
The second-level cultivator at the peak of the Martial Emperor looked at Yang Qi with a hint of fear. If it was a competition of Yuanli, relying on his own life-saving methods, he was confident that he could delay until his companions arrived and surround and kill Yang Qi. However, Yang Qi's soul method was so terrible that just one soul attack had already caused him serious damage to his soul. If it came a few more times, he would probably die on the spot.
It should be noted that if the soul is damaged, the performance of one's own strength will also be affected. If it is just the consumption of vitality, one's own strength will hardly be affected much. Therefore, the damage to the soul is far more dangerous to the practitioner than the simple consumption of vitality.
In addition, Yang Qi's virtual world methods are also very powerful. Even a cultivator at the third level of the peak of the Martial Emperor would probably be affected. Before his companions arrived, he had already been injured.
Even if he could delay until his companions arrived, the strength he could exert would probably be greatly affected. If the strength and means of other companions were suppressed, it would certainly be even more difficult for them to do anything to the practitioner in front of them!
"withdraw!"
Thinking of this, the cultivator understood that even if they surrounded Yang Qi, they had little hope of keeping Yang Qi. If they wanted to keep Yang Qi, it would not be a matter of paying a price. It was very likely that some cultivators in the team would die.
The cultivator who is most likely to die is undoubtedly the cultivator in front of him. After all, he consumes the most energy to hold back Yang Qi, and his soul has been severely damaged. He is definitely the most likely to be dragged down by Yang Qi as a scapegoat.
Therefore, after thinking for a while, he made a decision to give up the idea of surrounding and killing Yang Qi and evacuate first!
"I finally managed to lure a prey here, but it turned out to be so difficult to deal with. If I'm not careful, I might lose myself." The cultivator smiled bitterly in his heart. If he had known this would happen, he would rather not have met Yang Qi.
After all, even if he escapes this time, his soul has been severely traumatized, and it will be difficult for him to fully recover in a short period of time!
Whoosh~
All this happened in a flash. The cultivator at the second level of the peak Martial Emperor realm moved and flew towards the other direction of the valley.
"It's not that easy to leave!"
Seeing that the other party was planning to escape, Yang Qi knew what the other party was planning. He moved his body and swung the Black Phoenix Sword, which had been ready for a long time, continuously. Sharp sword beams, with terrifying power, attacked the second-level cultivator at the peak of the Martial Emperor level.
"not good!"
Feeling the powerful force coming from behind, the expression of the second-level Martial Emperor cultivator changed. He could clearly sense that the attack launched by Yang Qi at this moment was even more powerful than before.
The expression of the cultivator at the second level of the peak of Martial Emperor changed for a moment, and the next moment, his aura rose rapidly, and he actually reached the third level of the peak of Martial Emperor. Then he waved the Pseudo-Source Divine Weapon in his hand, and tried his best to resist the attack from behind.
"Burn the Origin!"
Feeling the change in the aura of the second-level peak Martial Emperor cultivator, Yang Qi couldn't help but frown. He didn't expect that the second-level peak Martial Emperor cultivator in front of him would be so decisive.
During this brief fight, only the soul was injured, and the opponent's essence actually burned directly.
Yang Qi didn't know how much pressure he brought to the second-level peak Martial Emperor by using the Soul-Devouring Cone. Especially since Yang Qi had no intention of letting him go, the other party felt a huge threat.
Doesn’t Yang Qi know that he is the bait
Obviously impossible!
Since the other party knew that he was the bait and that his companions were definitely coming to support him, Yang Qi still had no intention of letting him go. This meant that Yang Qi planned to kill him in a short time!
He was not afraid of the means of Yuanli, but he had to guard against the attack of the Soul-Devouring Cone, especially when his soul was already injured. If he was attacked again, the injury to his soul would be aggravated, and he might really die at the hands of Yang Qi.
The most important thing about burning one's own essence, besides being able to temporarily increase one's strength, is that it can increase the strength of one's soul and enhance one's ability to resist the Soul Devouring Cone.
