The situation reversed, and the three guardians were killed in an instant.

Protector Wei immediately felt the immense power within him, temporarily boosted by devouring Souls.

It surged uncontrollably towards Shen Wen's palm like a bursting dam, continuously pouring into his body!

"You...!"

Protector Wei's eyes widened, filled with extreme horror.

This ability to devour others' power for one's own use was even more direct, more overbearing, and more terrifying than the Hall of Souls' secret technique for devouring Souls!

He didn't even have time to say more.

Amidst the extreme weakness and fear brought by the rapid loss of power, he was completely consumed by another flame casually summoned by Shen Wen, following in the footsteps of Protector Liu.

In a flash, two Hall of Souls Protectors of the Three-Star Dou Zong level were annihilated, body and Soul!

Protector Wu watched this scene, which was almost a massacre, his liver and guts splitting. All his pride and certainty of victory turned into boundless fear.

He finally understood that what Protector Tie had faced back then was not a bitter battle at all, but a complete and utter crushing!

This kid had been hiding his strength, no, he had been toying with them!

His ambitions were vast!

Escape!

He had to escape immediately!

Report this child's true strength!

This child must not be allowed to live!

Protector Wu no longer dared to linger in battle. Black mist surged around him as he prepared to use the Hall of Souls' secret technique to transform into an invisible Soul mist and escape.

However.

"Roar!!!"

A Dragon roar, as if from ancient times, shook the universe!

Purple-gold light burst forth from Shen Wen's body, and immense Dou Qi intertwined with Dragon might, condensing into a colossal True Dragon phantom behind him!

The True Dragon swung its tail, shattering the Void Realm, and charged towards Protector Wu with terrifying, all-crushing power!

"Myriad Souls Protection!"

Protector Wu shrieked, unleashing the remaining Soul Power within him without reservation, forming layers of black Soul shields in front of him. Countless tormented faces twisted and wailed on the Soul shields.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

However.

Under that majestic Dragon might.

These Soul shields shattered one after another like paper, unable to block the True Dragon phantom in the slightest!

The terrifying impact slammed into Protector Wu.

He spat out blood, the black mist around him instantly thinned by more than half, and his aura plummeted like an avalanche.

Seeing no hope of escape.

A hint of madness flashed in Protector Wu's eyes. He abruptly turned his head to look at Jia Xingtian and the others in the square below, and Soul chains immediately flew towards them!

"Since I can't leave, I'll drag a few down with me! Soul Extraction!"

He actually wanted to make a last-ditch counterattack, forcibly extracting the Souls of the people below!

But just as the thought arose and the Soul chains had just flown out.

"Dong—!"

A bell chime, as if from the source of the river of time, ignored the defense of the Physical Body and rang directly in the depths of his Soul!

Chronos Bell.

Protector Wu felt his thoughts and consciousness completely stagnate at that instant, his mind blank, as if frozen in eternal silence.

Although this stagnation lasted only an insignificant moment, for Shen Wen, it was already enough.

When his consciousness regained clarity and he moved his eyes in horror, what he saw was Shen Wen's face, now close at hand.

And the Dragon-scaled hand that had effortlessly gripped his throat.

"Uh... you... you..."

Protector Wu made gurgling sounds in his throat, his eyes filled with extreme fear and disbelief.

He could clearly feel that the Five-Star Dou Zong power within him, temporarily boosted by the Soul Pouch, along with the Dou Qi he himself had Cultivated.

Was being continuously absorbed into Shen Wen's body like a flood with open gates!

This feeling of power being forcibly stripped away was more painful than being cut into a thousand pieces!

"You... what kind of evil technique is this?!"

Protector Wu roared with his last ounce of strength, wanting to expose this shocking secret to the public.

This method of devouring others' Dou Qi and Soul Power.

If it spread, Shen Wen would surely become the public enemy of the entire continent!

However.

"Dong—!"

Another lingering bell chime resonated deep within his Soul.

Protector Wu's consciousness once again plunged into Chaos, his thoughts shattered, unable to form any coherent ideas.

After the lingering sound of the bell dissipated.

He felt a sharp pain throughout his body, as if his Soul had been completely torn apart, and his consciousness then sank into boundless darkness.

Hall of Souls Protector Wu, fallen!

Shen Wen expressionlessly released his hand, and Protector Wu's shriveled body turned to ashes in the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame.

He felt the surging Dou Qi within him, churning like rivers and seas, as well as the devoured, yet not fully refined, Soul Power.

The Past Buddha, formed by the Past Amitabha Sutra in his mind, continuously chanted, and the absorbed Soul Power, under the influence of the scriptures, transformed into extremely pure Soul Power, absorbed by Shen Wen.

He turned his gaze to another battlefield and calmly said, "Cai Lin, use the Snake Sealing Technique to Seal him!"

Cai Lin, who was fiercely battling Yun Shan, had a cold glint in her purple eyes.

In fact, when Shen Wen suddenly erupted and consecutively slew three Hall of Souls Protectors.

Yun Shan's originally grim face had already changed color, his Battle Intent completely gone, only thinking of how to escape.

Now, hearing Shen Wen's words, Cai Lin held nothing back.

"Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python Secret Art, Heavenly Snake Bind!"

She formed a hand Seal, and the Seven-Colored Dou Qi around her surged skyward like a volcanic eruption, condensing into a Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python phantom behind her, even more solid and massive than before!

The giant python hissed, carrying the supreme pressure of an ancient Bloodline.

Its massive body stirred the winds and clouds, instantly transforming into countless seven-colored energy chains, like a net from heaven and earth, coiling towards Yun Shan!

Yun Shan's face drastically changed. He frantically urged the Dou Qi within him, and green wind spirals, like sharp blades, slashed at the seven-colored chains.

At the same time, he retreated rapidly, wanting to tear through space and escape.

"Want to leave? Stay!"

Shen Wen coldly snorted. With a slight thought, the power of the space ancestral talisman quietly operated.

The space around Yun Shan instantly became as hard as divine iron.

He crashed into it with all his might, as if hitting an invisible mountain. The space remained motionless, but he himself was shaken, his Qi and blood churning!

With just this delay.

The countless seven-colored chains had already reached him, coiling around him like a persistent disease, instantly binding him tightly!

Runes flickered on the chains.

A powerful Seal force penetrated his body, rapidly sealing the Dou Qi vortex in his Dantian and his main Meridians.

Yun Shan struggled desperately, but without space power and with his Dou Qi rapidly sealed, he was like a fly caught in a spiderweb; all resistance was futile.

In just the blink of an eye.

His surging Dou Zong aura rapidly withered like a deflating balloon, eventually falling completely silent.

This ambitious Sect Master of the Cloud Mist Sect, who had just Broken through to Dou Zong, became a prisoner without even being able to put up a decent resistance.

The entire Gama Square was now completely silent.

Everyone stood frozen, staring blankly at the sky as if a body-fixing spell had been cast upon them.

From Shen Wen's sudden outburst, to the three terrifying Hall of Souls Protectors being effortlessly slain, to the arrogant Yun Shan being easily sealed... all of this happened in just a dozen breaths, yet the situation had undergone such a dramatic reversal!

Shen Wen stood with his hands behind his back in the Void Realm, his expression calm, as if everything he had just done was merely flicking away a few specks of dust.
