"Damn it!"
Seeing the situation unfolding, Protector Xuan grew increasingly panicked.
If that brat succeeded in capturing all the souls, then the soul power gathered in the formation wouldn't be able to birth a powerful fierce soul.
And without that, the entire formation would be essentially powerless.
"No! The more soul bodies that brat captures, the slimmer my chances of victory!"
At that thought, Protector Xuan reached for the storage ring on his finger.
Inside, he still had four soul bodies at the peak of Dou Huang level.
If he fused them into one, they could produce a fierce soul at the Dou Zong level.
However, given the current circumstances, he hesitated.
After all, even if a Dou Zong-level fierce soul were created, he still wouldn't be able to handle the combined strength of Tian Huo Zun Zhe and Lin Feng—not even as a Six-Star Dou Zong himself.
And at that moment of hesitation, tens of thousands of soul bodies within the formation had already been captured by Lin Feng.
Freed from the siege of blood-red fierce souls, Tian Huo Zun Zhe had also regained his freedom.
"Damn it! Looks like today's just not my day. I've lost tens of thousands of souls, and I won't forget this grudge!"
Realizing victory was no longer possible, Protector Xuan cursed angrily, then turned and fled.
At this point, he couldn't even worry about whether he could meet the soul quota for the next tribute.
He only wanted to get out of this place of misfortune as quickly as possible—to save his own life.
"Trying to run?!"
Seeing him trying to escape, Tian Huo Zun Zhe roared and vanished on the spot, his illusory figure instantly shooting toward the distant black mist that marked Protector Xuan's retreat.
Sensing the terrifying presence rapidly closing in behind him, Protector Xuan hurriedly turned his head.
Seeing Tian Huo Zun Zhe charging like a thunderbolt, he extended his palm and slammed it downward.
Following his motion, the dense, cold black mist atop the formation surged from the clouds like a flood.
With what soul power remained in the formation, he condensed it all into this freezing mist—just enough to temporarily stall Tian Huo Zun Zhe.
Seeing this, Lin Feng placed the last of the soul bodies into his storage ring.
Then, both hands swiftly formed a complex hand seal, and a powerful surge of soul power erupted from his forehead!
His massive soul power surged violently around him.
"Buzz!"
As his hand seals changed suddenly, a strange soundwave burst from his body and rippled outward like a wave.
The mighty, invisible shockwave, faintly infused with dragon might, swept through the air silently—cutting across space itself!
The wave moved incredibly fast. In an instant, it had caught up to the fleeing Protector Xuan…
…And without mercy, it blasted straight into his soul sea!
"Ahhh!!"
Caught completely off guard, Protector Xuan let out a blood-curdling scream as the attack tore through him, echoing through the sky.
The soul power of a seventh-tier alchemist, amplified by an Earth Class sonic Dou Technique, combined with a trace of dragon aura—
This double impact was devastating against a bodiless soul like the Hall of Souls's Protector.
Even at Six-Star Dou Zong level, Protector Xuan couldn't endure the shock.
The agonizing pain forced him to freeze in place, his figure stiff and trembling.
"Three Thousand Lightning Movement: Three Thousand Lightning!"
Just as he was stunned, Lin Feng's feet burst into wild arcs of lightning.
Behind him, his massive bone wings flared with a blinding light.
Under this dual boost, Lin Feng's figure vanished in a flash and reappeared just behind the helpless Protector Xuan.
Staring coldly at the screaming soul, Lin Feng brought his hands together and rapidly formed a series of intricate hand seals.
With each change, the temperature around him rose sharply!
"Five Ring Flame Expelling Technique!"
With a low, chilling shout in his heart, Lin Feng's final seal locked into place.
Palm outstretched, Lin Feng grasped the air—instantly, a nearly invisible flame gently rose from his palm like mist.
As the formless flame emerged, it swiftly expanded, squirming in an eerie, almost grotesque manner.
Within moments, the flame morphed into a massive illusory fire wolf, over twenty meters in size.
Gazing at the fire wolf that had taken shape beside him, Lin Feng's hand seals changed again.
With a low hum, his Green Lotus Core Flame suddenly surged up from his palm.
Under Lin Feng's willful control, the green flame twisted and morphed, transforming within seconds into a second beast spirit—a blazing fire leopard!
Without stopping, Lin Feng's fingers danced into another set of intricate seals.
Different-colored flames surged out of his body, one after another.
Soon, five different fire spirits, each formed from unique flames, began to spiral around him.
These fire spirits continuously radiated terrifying heat waves.
The scorching temperature they emitted distorted the space itself, warping the air in visible folds.
"Five Ring Flame Expelling Technique—Form the Array!"
As Lin Feng's shout echoed, the five fire spirits burst outward, shooting toward five directions.
The five spirits formed a pentagram-like formation, completely enveloping the several-hundred-meter radius around Lin Feng.
"Roar!"
Deep, resonant roars suddenly erupted from the five fire spirits.
Then, five beams of fire, each a different color, shot from their mouths and slammed into one another's bodies.
The beams wove together, forming a perfect five-pointed star of light.
"Zzzzz!"
As the beams penetrated the fire spirits, their bodies glowed with brilliant radiance.
From within them, pillars of light erupted and crisscrossed through the sky, drawing radiant lines.
These lines rapidly sketched out a complex mystical formation, painting an intricate arcane pattern in the air in mere seconds!
As soon as the array took form, a radiant curtain of fire swept downward, engulfing everything within a hundred meters of sky.
Within that blazing fire curtain, the now-awakened Protector Xuan was completely trapped.
"Damn it! How does this brat know a Hall of Souls Dou Technique?!"
Sensing the violently rampaging fire-type Dou Qi all around him, Protector Xuan's voice finally betrayed a hint of fear.
If not for that earlier sonic Dou Technique, there's no way he would have been restrained like this.
But right now, Lin Feng had no interest in his emotions.
His hand seals suddenly shifted again.
In the next instant, the fire curtain around him began to ripple and tremble.
Waves of dazzling flames intertwined and surged out, merging into a raging sea of fire that poured into the array!
Two kinds of Heavenly Flames, one Rank 8 beast flame, and two Rank 7 beast flames—
The fusion of these five powerful flames, blending and catalyzing one another, created a multi-colored inferno of astonishing beauty.
Yet beneath that beautiful surface, an overwhelming aura of destruction radiated outward.
"Very well, fine! Since you insist on fighting to the death—then I'll play along!"
Seeing Lin Feng wasn't planning to let him go, Protector Xuan clenched his teeth, his tone turning cold—and a little insane.
"Soul Howl!"
With his furious roar, a surge of powerful soul power erupted from within his being.
A strange, shrill cry burst forth from the depths of his spirit—sweeping outward across the sky in a soul-shaking wave!
