Qian Renxue was, of course, not going to sit still and wait for her fate. She immediately retreated a safe distance, golden radiance surging across her body.
A dazzling light burst forth from her forehead, spreading like wildfire until it enveloped her entire figure.
One after another, soul rings emerged around her.
Two yellow, two purple, three black—seven rings in total.
At the same time, her disguise as Xue Qinghe melted away.
Her hair turned a brilliant, radiant gold, each strand glowing with divine purity.
Her robe split open at the back, and from within unfurled two pairs of immaculate white wings.
Defying gravity itself, her body slowly floated upward until she hovered a foot above the ground.
Bathed in the golden glow, her eyes too turned a piercing gold. Behind her, a massive phantom took form—its six majestic wings spread wide, exuding a sacred aura.
It was none other than the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul!
Hovering in midair with wings outstretched, Qian Renxue's golden eyes gazed coldly at Chen Feng.
"Chen Feng, you are indeed impressive. But to speak of cooperation? That's far too early. You haven't become the Shura God yet!"
Chen Feng's reply was blunt, without hesitation.
"If I were already a god, I wouldn't bother talking. Those who disobey would simply be suppressed."
Qian Renxue's brows furrowed. "Courting death!"
Her words had barely fallen when a blazing golden tail-flame streaked from her back. She shot forward like a falling star, hurling herself at Chen Feng with unstoppable momentum.
Indeed, the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul was terrifying. Around Qian Renxue, the very air seemed to warp and twist. Even Chen Feng, with his powerful spiritual sense, found it nearly impossible to lock onto her precise location.
Golden brilliance filled the hall, sacred and oppressive.
Though she had yet to complete the God Trial, the Six-Winged Angel was a true divine inheritance. The pressure surging from her body was enough to crush any ordinary Soul Saint.
"Sword Dao Heavenly Eye!"
Chen Feng's eyes suddenly gleamed blue. His Heavenly Eye, now fully mastered, pierced through all illusions.
Under its gaze, Qian Renxue's blurred figure instantly sharpened into focus—just in time for him to see her fifth soul ring ignite.
"Holy Sword!"
A longsword forged entirely of divine flame condensed in her hands, thrumming with destructive might. Even without touching it, Chen Feng could feel its terrifying edge.
Yet he did not panic. His fourth soul ring lit up—dark and ominous. Strengthened through divine inheritance, its quality now surpassed twenty thousand years, stronger even than Qian Renxue's fifth ring.
"Murderous Intent Revealed!"
Scarlet light flared in his eyes as his Slaughter Domain erupted forth.
A suffocating bloodlust swept across the chamber, swallowing Qian Renxue whole.
To her shock, as the red glow engulfed her, her fifth soul skill began to wither away—its power draining rapidly. Even her soul power itself was slipping from her grasp.
Still, momentum carried her forward. She was already upon Chen Feng.
"Kill!"
Though shaken, Qian Renxue reacted decisively. She understood this was the power of a domain—delay would only mean her strength slipping further away.
At the same time, Chen Feng raised the dark-red Seven Kill Sword. His fourth skill detonated at full force.
Murderous Intent Revealed—its first strike would land with three hundred percent critical force, and every attack thereafter would scale, growing fifty percent stronger per strike for one whole minute.
The crimson blade slashed upward, colliding with Qian Renxue's descending Holy Sword.
"BOOM!"
A deafening explosion shook the palace. The entire structure collapsed in an instant.
Red and gold clashed fiercely in midair, locked in violent opposition.
But the deadlock lasted less than two seconds.
Her Holy Sword shattered completely, and a devastating backlash hurled Qian Renxue's body into the air.
"Impossible!"
She was stunned. She, too, was a Soul Saint, wielding the supreme Six-Winged Angel. Yet she had been crushed in a single exchange?
Just how strong was this Chen Feng?!
"I refuse to accept this!"
Spreading her wings, Qian Renxue spun in the air. But in that fleeting instant, she glimpsed a shadow flash across her vision—
Dark-red wings slashing down like blades.
Chen Feng had already pursued her overhead, his Seven Kill Sword plunging straight for her skull.
Qian Renxue gasped coldly and dropped like a stone, rolling desperately across the ground in an utterly ungraceful maneuver. Only then did she narrowly evade the fatal strike.
But she had no time to breathe.
The massive Seven Kill Sword swept down again—though, curiously, Chen Feng struck with the flat of the blade rather than its edge.
Even so, the force was terrifying.
Her body was sent hurtling like a cannonball, smashing through two walls before finally skidding to a halt.
And all of this—every exchange—had taken place in mere breaths.
Chen Feng had been relentlessly pressing her, giving Qian Renxue not a single chance to counter.
"Young Miss!"
Snake Spear Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo erupted with killing intent, their Martial Souls unleashed as they soared into the air.
Chen Feng faced them head-on. His Seven Kill Sword clashed with the Snake Spear, the impact forcing him three steps back. He narrowly evaded Porcupinefish Douluo's blow, countered with a palm against Snake Spear Douluo, and skidded more than ten meters across the floor, carving deep furrows with his feet and sword.
Yet despite fighting two Titled Douluo in succession, Chen Feng stood unharmed.
The two old Douluo exchanged looks of shock. He was only a Soul Saint—what would happen once he reached Soul Douluo, or worse, Title Douluo?
Hovering above, Qian Renxue's face was pale and grim.
"The power you used just now… that was a domain, wasn't it?"
Chen Feng nodded calmly.
"Correct. Slaughter Domain. It suppresses all soul skills. Any soul master weaker than me by less than ten levels will be unable to use them at all."
Still, he was puzzled. She had been affected, yet had managed to barely cast her fifth skill. The power had been weakened, but not erased.
Which meant—Qian Renxue had her domain.
Likely the Angel Domain, innate to the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul.
