Chapter 1496: He Has to Die (2/2)
With a loud boom, the blurry face exploded and perished.
As this happened, dazzling stars shone in the depths of Nie Tian’s pupils.
WHOOSH!
The huge bone morphed into a streak of crimson lightning that shot towards Duan Hongwen, who then ran for his life.
“Starchains!”
As numerous chains of sparkling starlight filled the vast sky like rivers of stars, the depths of Nie Tian’s pupils reflected Duan Hongwen, which showed the crimson divine spear its target with precision.
At the same time, his other hand reached towards Duan Hongwen like a blood-colored dome.
Locked down by the bone and Nie Tian’s enormous hand, Duan Hongwen had nowhere to run.
POOPH!
Like a red flash, the bone pierced through Duan Hongwen’s earth power defensive shield. The moment the shield exploded, Nie Tian’s huge hand arrived and descended on him like a heaven-reaching mountain peak.
Duan Hongwen looked up, and discovered that blood-colored light filled his view, and that every wisp of his life force seemed to be channeled away from him.
All of a sudden, he realized that his heart had stopped beating, which meant his body had died.
Then, he attempted to separate his soul from his sea of awareness to secure a smidgen of hope of rebirth.
WHOOSH!
Duan Hongwen’s soul flew out successfully. Overjoyed, he prepared to fly to the depths of the earth, where he assumed that he would be able to escape Nie Tian’s murderous hand.
The incantations he had practiced his whole life were all earth power-related.
His grayish-yellow soul carried an earth attribute, which allowed it to travel without obstacles in the depths of the earth.
“As long as I can secure my soul, I’m not dead in the real sense! After the sectmaster gets here and annihilates Nie Tian, he’ll definitely find an opportunity to bring me back to life!”
However, while he was indulging in his smug calculations, another hand flew out of the palm of Nie Tian’s enormous blood-colored descending hand!
That hand seemed to be made of nothing but Nie Tian’s refined soul power. The aura it exuded made Duan Hongwen’s soul tremble with fear. “That... That’s the Phantasms’ evil soul magic!”
Nie Tian sneered and said, “That’s right. This is the soul magic the Phantasms usually use: Soul-capturing Hand. It proves to be effective on discarnate souls that have left their bodies, like you.”
The strange-looking hand grabbed Duan Hongwen’s soul with a swift move.
Grasped by the neck, he couldn’t break free no matter how hard he struggled.
FIZZ! FIZZ!
As his soul was rapidly reduced to wisps of smoke under the effect of the Soul-capturing Hand, his soul imprints quickly vanished.
Nie Tian looked down and watched the misty gray soul in his hand scatter like smoke. “My Soul-capturing Hand isn’t quite the same as that of the Phantasms, as I derived mine directly from the Nether River, which was transformed from Grand Monarch Heavenly Spirit’s sea of awareness. With your soul burned out and memories dissipated, the only slightly useful thing that remains of you is your pure soul power.”
As soon as the Spirit Pearl flew out, the wisps of scattering smoke from Duan Hongwen’s incinerated soul flew into the pearl.
Soon, there was nothing left of his soul.
One figure after another flew out of the Realm of Looming Shadow into the starry river.
“He killed Duan Hongwen and refined his soul so that he has no chance to be reborn!”
“He didn’t give even You Qimiao face!”
“This is bad. Now that Duan Hongwen’s been killed, You Qimiao, as the sectmaster of the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect, definitely won’t let this go easily! I bet You Qimiao will annihilate those five monsters as Nie Tian annihilated Duan Hongwen.”
They all wondered what violent means You Qimiao would use to deal with Nie Tian after finding out that Duan Hongwen had been eliminated, body and soul, after his reflection had been scattered by Nie Tian.
At this moment, Song Chequan’s desperate wail echoed out. “Help me, Sectmaster You!”
