Chapter 162: True Sun Fire, Slashing a Titled Douluo with a Sword
High in the sky, Ye Guyi was bathed in a dazzling golden radiance. With her Angelic Domain fully deployed, it was as if she had forcibly carved out a sacred kingdom belonging solely to light beneath the heavens.
Within the domain, the air was as viscous as liquid gold, filled with a powerful rejection and suppression of all non-sacred attributes. The two Soul Douluos and over a dozen Soul Saints equipped with flying Spirit Tools felt as if they were trapped in a quagmire. Their originally smooth Soul Power circulation became sluggish and difficult, and both their speed and strength were significantly weakened. Even the long-range soul skills they unleashed visibly dimmed and dissipated in brilliance and power upon entering this golden domain.
Conversely, Ye Guyi, situated at the center of the domain, saw her aura skyrocket like a rising rocket!
The domain not only greatly enhanced her own various abilities but also produced a profound resonance with the Angel Sword in her hand. The sword's blade hummed and vibrated, like a seedling receiving long-awaited rain, greedily absorbing the pure light-attribute energy gathered by the domain.
But this was still far from enough!
Within Ye Guyi's golden eyes, which were as bright as morning stars, burned a flame of determination. She knew deep down that although the domain was powerful, it extremely exhausted Soul Power and Spiritual energy, making it impossible to maintain for long. Although the enemies were temporarily suppressed, that Titled Douluo remained the greatest threat. She had to seize this peak moment of domain empowerment to unleash a supreme strike that would decide the victory!
"In the name of the Angel, I draw upon the majesty of the brilliant sun to cleanse all filth from the world!"
Her clear, cold chanting echoed within the domain like a sacred prayer. Following her words, she raised the Angel Sword high, pointing it directly at the sun in the sky.
The Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul was hailed as "invincible in the sky." Its power lay not only in its unparalleled aerial combat maneuverability but also in its natural, high affinity with the sun!
The closer one was to the sky and the further from the obscuration of earthly dust, the more pure and majestic the solar power one could channel and gather became!
At this moment, under the amplification and guidance of the Angelic Domain, the light-attribute energy within a radius of several hundred meters—especially that scorching primordial power originating from the sun—seemed to receive a supreme summons. It converged frantically toward the Angel Sword in Ye Guyi's hand at an unprecedented speed.
"Buzz—!"
The Angel Sword emitted an unprecedentedly violent vibration. Upon the blade, the originally dazzling golden radiance began to collapse and condense inward, its color gradually shifting to a deeper, more intense platinum. The space around the blade began to warp and blur, as if unable to withstand this extreme heat and energy.
Immediately afterward, a wisp of pure white flame with a faint golden tint silently spread upward from the hilt, instantly enveloping the entire blade!
The appearance of this flame did not bring about a towering inferno; instead, it made the surrounding light seem as if it were being swallowed, appearing exceptionally restrained. However, the moment it appeared, the temperature within the entire Angelic Domain abruptly soared to a terrifying level. The vegetation in the valley below turned yellow and withered at a visible rate, and even the surfaces of the rocks began to emit the 'crackling' sound of fracturing!
True Sun Fire!
The True Sun Fire, symbolizing ultimate purification and destruction, which could only be channeled when the Angel Martial Soul was cultivated to an extremely high realm!
This true fire was no ordinary fire. It contained the destructive will and creative light of the sun's core, possessing absolute restraint over evil attributes. Even if the opponent was not an Evil Soul Master, its pure, extreme heat and destructiveness were enough to melt gold and iron, evaporating all things!
Sensing the terrifying fluctuations emanating from that platinum flame—fluctuations that made even the soul tremble—the shock on the face of the Titled Douluo Elder finally turned into horror!
"True Sun Fire?! How could you possibly..." He cried out in shock, no longer daring to hold back. He desperately pushed the Soul Power within his body, attempting to break free from the domain's suppression and fully convert his ninth soul skill, which was originally intended for capture, into defense.
Dark green Soul Power surged from his body like boiling water, rapidly condensing in front of him into an immensely thick, giant shield engraved with a hideous ghost head.
However, Ye Guyi would not give him any chance to catch his breath.
Pouring all her remaining Soul Power, her boiling battle intent, and even her unyielding conviction unreservedly into this single sword strike, Ye Guyi gave a sharp cry. The six wings on her back suddenly erupted with blinding light-flames, providing her with a final burst of propulsion.
She moved with the sword, transforming into a platinum meteor that tore through the sky. With an indomitable aura of absolute judgment over all things, she slashed down fiercely toward that massive ghost-head shield!
"Slash!"
There was no deafening explosion, only a slight 'chi' sound, like the tearing of silk.
The moment the Angel Sword, enveloped in True Sun Fire, struck the shield, that powerful defensive soul skill—which condensed the Titled Douluo Elder's lifelong cultivation—was actually split in two as easily as a hot knife through butter!
The majestic Soul Power condensed on the shield, upon contact with the True Sun Fire, melted away like snow. It emitted a'sizzling' wail and rapidly collapsed and evaporated.
The sword's momentum did not falter, continuing downward!
"No!!!"
The Titled Douluo Elder's pupils shrank abruptly. He only had time to cross his arms in front of his chest and condense all his remaining Soul Power onto them.
"Puff—!"
The platinum sword light swept past.
An arm enveloped in dark green Soul Power was severed at the shoulder, flying into the air with a trail of blood, only to be instantly vaporized in the next second by the aftershocks of the scorching True Sun Fire!
The elder let out an extremely shrill scream. A massive, charred sword wound that reached the bone appeared on his chest. The terrifying power of the True Sun Fire was like a maggot on a bone, frantically boring into his body, burning his meridians and Soul Power.
Like a kite with its string cut, his body emitting black smoke, he plummeted rapidly from the high sky toward the valley below. His aura instantly withered to the extreme; he was already heavily wounded!
It was only because he was not an Evil Soul Master—though his attributes were suppressed, he wasn't absolutely crushed like an Evil Soul Master would be—and because his cultivation was deep enough that he managed to avoid his vital points at the last moment. Otherwise, Ye Guyi's sword strike, which condensed the domain, the True Sun Fire, and all her power, would have definitely killed him on the spot rather than just heavily wounding him.
However, having succeeded in one strike, Ye Guyi also paid a price.
To concentrate all her mind and power into this finishing blow, a momentary gap inevitably appeared in her own defense.
At the moment her sword's momentum was spent and her new strength had yet to rise, the two fastest-reacting Soul Saints, braving the domain's suppression, slammed their long-range attack soul skills heavily onto her back!
"Boom! Boom!"
Despite the natural weakening from the Angelic Domain and her Martial Soul True Body, and despite these being attacks from only two Soul Saints, this solid hit still caused Ye Guyi's throat to sweeten as she spat out a mouthful of golden blood. The light-wings on her back swayed violently, their brilliance dimming significantly. Her internal organs suffered a severe shock, and her Soul Power fell into disarray.
But her gaze remained as sharp as a knife!
Taking advantage of the immense thrust generated by these two attacks, Ye Guyi forcibly rallied a breath of Soul Power. With a powerful flap of the six wings on her back, instead of trying to stabilize herself, she used the momentum to shoot away like an out-of-control golden arrow, accelerating toward another direction far from the battlefield!
Everything happened too quickly. From Ye Guyi erupting with her domain and channeling the True Sun Fire, to heavily wounding the Titled Douluo, and then to her being injured and using the force to flee, only two or three breaths of time had passed.
The remaining enemies, including the two Soul Douluos, were all stunned.
They watched helplessly as the strongest Titled Douluo in their group was heavily wounded and plummeted in a miserable state. Then they saw Ye Guyi's retreating figure, which, though injured, still maintained an astonishing speed. For a moment, they were actually intimidated by that resolute aura and the lingering prestige of the True Sun Fire, standing frozen in mid-air, with no one daring to give chase immediately.
Above the valley, only the lingering echoes of the Titled Douluo's desperate screams as he fell remained, along with the smells of char and blood permeating the air, and the not-yet-fully dissipated scorching sacred aura—all testifying to the tragedy and reversal of that just-past moment.
Ye Guyi's figure had already become a tiny golden dot on the horizon, rapidly disappearing from everyone's field of vision.
A carefully planned ambush had come to a temporary close with the leader heavily wounded and the target escaping while injured.
