"The Dragon Ball is the supreme treasure of the Dragon Vein, guarded generation after generation by our Long Family. How could outsiders possibly take itâtoday, as long as I am here, you shall never obtain the Dragon Ball!"
Long Zhantianâs gaze was intently fixed on the Goddess, his eyes filled with unwavering resolution.
"You canât stop me!" the Goddess said lightly, yet her tone was extremely certain.
"Then let me see just how powerful you, a woman, really are!"
With a cold shout from Long Zhantian, his eyes narrowed and his body enveloped in a unique aura, suddenly Ye Luoâs Clairvoyant Eye saw a terrifying soul power burst forth from the center of Long Zhantianâs brow.
This soul power was terrifyingly formidable, comparable to the Soul Power of a seventh level Spirit Sea Realm expert, aiming directly at the Goddessâ soul. Clearly, he intended to use soul power to attack.
Upon releasing this terrifying soul power, even Ye Luoâs own soul felt a slight tremor. This soul attack was indeed fearsome, definitely an existence that could kill invisibly.
It was uncertain whether this fearsome woman could withstand it again, as soul attacks are different from martial technique strength attacks; one misstep could result in the soul dispersing.
However, facing Long Zhantianâs powerful soul attack, the Goddess maintained an extremely calm demeanor, showing no resistance at allâallowing the soul power strong enough to destroy a sixth level Spirit Sea expert to penetrate her brain and soul.
Seeing this, Long Zhantianâs expression slightly relaxed, thinking that no matter how extraordinary her strength, she had no way to resist his powerful soul attack. Under his strike, she would either die or become an idiot. However, what happened next again shocked this always composed Family Head of the Long Family.
Just as Long Zhantianâs soul power surged into the Goddessâs Spirit Sea, it launched an attack towards her soul.
At that moment, ripples suddenly trembled in the Goddessâ Spirit Sea, waves blooming like tides, instantly blocking the incoming soul power attack and simultaneously releasing a destructive invisible force.
In an instant, Long Zhantianâs soul power faced the terrifying destructive force and could not resist; it was rapidly destroyed.
Puh!
Long Zhantian spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his eyes flickering with fear, his face showing disbelief. Without a second thought, he rapidly withdrew the remaining soul power back into his body from the Goddessâ Spirit Sea.
But in just that instant, Long Zhantian had lost nearly half of his soul power. Had he not retreated swiftly, his soul might have been completely destroyed, and even if he survived, he would become a cripple.
Even now, having lost nearly half of his soul power, Long Zhantian felt an intense headache, his expression filled with exhaustion, his body weak, collapsing to the ground with an extremely feeble breath, his strength realm even falling to the first level of Spirit Sea Realm.
"Brother Long!"
Seeing Long Zhantian collapse, Ji Haotianâs face changed, and he hurried over, lifting him up. The people from the two great families watching from afar all looked very solemn.
At this moment, the three ninth-level Spirit Sea experts accompanying the Goddess burst out with even more terrifying power, especially the one fighting five opponents alone, who also released a terrifying soul attack.
In an instant, all five high-level Spirit Sea experts were blown away, falling to the ground, vomiting blood, their souls severely damaged.
"What was that? What just happened, what kind of power was able to destroy soul power!"
Ye Luo, standing aside, observed through his Clairvoyant Eye what had just transpired within the Goddessâs Spirit Sea and was somewhat perplexed.
"Itâs actually a Soul Device!"
Suddenly, Xiao Ling exclaimed in surprise.
"What? A Soul Device? What is that?" Ye Luo asked, his expression filled with confusion.
"As the name implies, a Soul Device is a weapon that can target the soul. There are offensive Soul Devices and defensive Soul Devices, but Soul Devices are even rarer than Spiritual Artifacts and Kingâs Tools. Soul Devices are ranked from one to nine, with one being the lowest and nine the highest," Xiao Ling explained.
"Are you saying that the power within that womanâs mind just now was the power of a Soul Device, and my Clairvoyant Eye couldnât see its existence?"
Ye Luo couldnât help but ask.
"Once a Soul Device is acknowledged by a master, it can be concealed, making it very difficult to detect. Indeed, the power within that womanâs mind is that of a Soul Device. I have seen the power of a Soul Device before when I was with my previous master."
"Based on my judgment, the Soul Device this woman possesses is at least a Second Grade Soul Device. Itâs just that she hasnât fully mastered it yet; otherwise, the manâs soul power would have been completely destroyed in an instant, and he wouldnât have been able to escape with a part of his soul power,"
"But I never thought that a Second Grade Soul Device would appear in this world. In the Martial Realm, only some people from the great families possess Second Grade Soul Devices. Not only does she possess a Water Spirit Body, but she also has a Soul Device, Master. This womanâs identity is probably very significant."
After hearing Xiao Lingâs introduction, Ye Luoâs eyes sparkled with fascination, filled with curiosity as he looked at this woman whose demeanor was noble and sacred, and whose appearance was ethereal and figure perfection itself.
She had a Water Spirit Body and her strength had even reached the Fifth Level of Spirit Sea Realm, and she owned a Soul Device. She was truly a Goddess; even Ye Luo felt somewhat inferior in comparison.
Moreover, this woman was accompanied by three masters of the Ninth Level of the Spirit Sea Realm. Such an existence had a terrifying background, possibly belonging to one of those super first-class forces of the Hidden Sect.
After all, in Huaxia, to give rise to such a Goddess with talent, strength, and beauty all in one, other than those super first-class forces, Ye Luo could hardly imagine any other power capable of having such a Goddess.
Among the women Ye Luo knew, it might be difficult to find one that could compare to this woman.
After injuring Long Zhantian, this Goddess then moved toward the Dragon Head, intending to seize the Dragon Ball within its mouth.
Seeing this, a regretful hue flashed across Ye Luoâs eyes, for that was the key for his breakthrough to the eighth Dragon Vein, and naturally, he was reluctant to see it taken by someone else.
But he had already been exposed. If he were to charge forward and compete with her, he would surely die a tragic death, and Ye Luo naturally wouldnât do such a foolish thing.
"Ji Haotian, quickly summon the Divine Sword!"
At that moment, the severely injured Ji Family power at the Eighth Level of Spirit Sea Realm suddenly shouted at Ji Haotian.
Ji Haotianâs eyes narrowed, and his gaze sparkled, staring at the Goddess who was heading toward the Dragon Ball.
Ji Haotianâs hands quickly formed a series of mystical seals, his body surged with a special aura, while he quietly chanted under his breath.
