Chapter 302: Chapter 174 Three Sword Souls!_3

He did not dare gamble that Zhou Yan’s punch could annihilate him.

"Go ahead."

In the void, a flash of unknown light appeared, and a Zhou Yan flew in from beyond the sky, suddenly appearing.

He spoke to another Zhou Yan.

At this scene, everyone was dumbfounded.

That Zhou Yan nodded and immediately began to condense the Sword Soul.

Heaven and Earth churned, and the aura of destruction surfaced.

Twelve Sword Spirits condensed into terrifying soul phantasms, shaking the heavens and earth, awakening even the ancient Divine beings.

Between heaven and earth, a Light of Destruction appeared and struck out like lightning, instantly targeting the condensed Sword Soul.

The Split Body was nearly instantaneously turned to ash, endless energy shattered, and the Twelve Sword Spirits were pulverized.

Everyone was shocked.

But that Zhou Yan, standing with his hands behind him in the void, remained unharmed and unchanged.

"Undying Rebirth Technique!"

A terrifying surge of energy bolstered the Split Body.

The Split Body instantly recovered to its peak!

"Condense the Sword Soul!"

This time, he did not fully condense, he only formed one Grey Dragon Sword Soul.

But still, during that moment of condensation, a black light carrying the Power of Destruction struck from the sky.

In one strike, complete destruction.

This time, the Split Body was directly annihilated, turning into dust.

Seeing this scene, even Hou Ling and others turned pale.

"Go!"

Zhou Yan remained unmoved, and the void quivered, another Zhou Yan flew out, almost identical to the Split Body.

No one knew why Zhou Yan had so many "Void Bodies."

At this moment, everyone was suddenly filled with immense fear.

Even the man in colorful clothes suddenly laughed miserably, "Zhou Yan, you’re truly formidable! We set up a grand scheme, hoping to prematurely trigger the Nine Origin Reincarnation, seizing the ancient Fate of heaven and earth, only to find out that we couldn’t even grasp a shred of your real information.

You broke the rules, first condensing numerous Void Bodies, letting them condense the Sword Souls! You truly are the only genius in this world, no, in the entire universe! But no matter how many Void Bodies you have, they are not the Origin condensing, and you still cannot condense the Sword Soul—"

His words cut off, and the next moment, Yang Qingtan’s body suddenly exploded, and Zhou Yan killed him with a sword, extracting his Soul!

This scene terrified everyone, especially Zhou Xian, who was next to Yang Qingtan; his face also showed signs of alarm.

"Zhou Yan, my heart has long been dead, becoming your Ding Furnace, I have no regrets. Live well, change this treacherous world."

As Zhou Yan struck him down, Yang Qingtan left behind these words.

Apparently, he also knew about the scheme and had long harbored a will to die.

But Zhou Yan did not feel it a pity; if today’s situation didn’t break, he would have been devoured by Yang Qingtan, someone else controlling Yang Qingtan to seize his body.

So, after extracting Yang Qingtan’s Soul, he had no qualms, refining on the spot, deriving a Split Body, and immediately merging with the newly struck-out Split Body.

Again, he condensed the Grey Dragon Sword Soul, and yet again, a beam of light struck out.

But this time, Zhou Yan struck with his fist.

With one punch, he shattered heaven and earth, piercing through this world.

The first Sword Soul was formed.

Between heaven and earth, black snowflakes fell, the calm of the Despair Abyss seemed to have been truly broken.

Thereafter, Zhou Yan used the Undying Rebirth Technique again, successively condensing the White Tiger Sword Soul and the Eagle Sword Soul, halting only then.

The following two Sword Souls, amid heaven and earth, had no laws descending, nor any Light of Destruction striking out, as if it had been tacitly approved or as if that punch had broken the rules.

Zhou Yan stood in place, his Realm had stepped into the Sword Soul Realm, still in the Early Stage, but now, he was far stronger than Ji Tianxu.

No one dared ignore his presence any longer.

But no one knew how tragic the loss of his Origin was from condensing Sword Souls three times in succession.

After severing three Swords, his Soul could shatter at any moment, but he exhibited unstoppable power to others.

Moreover, after strongly condensing the Fist Intent to deliver a punch, his life force was ground down to its limit, ready to explode at any moment.

"I’m tired, and weary. I’ve condensed the Sword Soul, but I’ve given up myself."

At this moment, his Split Body suddenly spoke.

Then, his Split Body, before everyone could see, took out a sword and directly struck himself.

"Are you satisfied now?"

Zhou Yan smiled; the Sword Spirit within the Split Body violently exploded.

But this kind of explosion harmed no one and was not a self-destruction.

Instead, in front of everyone, it nullified the condensed Sword Soul, rendering himself beyond salvation.

"From now on, all of us, sever all ties, having no further relations. If we meet again, it might be as enemies of life and death."

"I understand that some of you will not give me the chance to condense the Sword Soul, even if already successful, nor give me the breathing room to let the ’Void Body’ complete the soul exchange with the Origin. I don’t want to witness that scene, so I took things into my own hands, destroying myself."

"I just want to tell you all, I, Zhou Yan want to condense the Sword Soul, no one can stop it, or rather, no one is capable of stopping it."

"The shackles of the Despair Abyss are broken. You go out still carrying the memory, remember everything that happened."

"From now on, don’t disturb my life, even if I wander the world alone, even though I’ve left permanent scars on Heavenly Dao, with no further progress in life, don’t disturb me. Perhaps my combat power has decreased a lot, but I won’t be oppressed much by the Realm, killing most of you would still be as easy as slaughtering dogs."

"This life, truly, is meaningless. Indeed, some things are lost before one realizes they are not so important to me after all."

"Now, I am free of any cares, truly feeling light."

Zhou Yan smiled, with a somewhat desolate expression.

His body appeared very aged, drenched in blood, all those Split Bodies were gone.

But no one dared to stop him.

Everyone just silently watched him, watched as he walked farther and farther away.
