Chapter 1271: Devil Mist Dao Transformation
Xiang Shaoyun launched a sword attack, fully confident that the attack would hit, but it missed, contrary to his expectations. His attack had fully locked onto Ming Abi, so why would it miss? He was greatly shocked.
His clone rapidly retreated after missing the attack. He knew that a counterattack would come soon. Sure enough, Ming Abi appeared near his main body. Not only had Ming Abi avoided the sword attack, but he had also avoided the nether yin devils, displaying an astonishing speed.
"Just from the fact that you managed to force me to use my Blood Escape, you can die proud," said Ming Abi with blood dripping from his mouth.
He had paid with his blood essence to increase his speed and avoid Xiang Shaoyun's final blow. Doing so would reduce his life force and adversely affect his foundations. Thus, he wanted to destroy Xiang Shaoyun's main body as payback.
He was certain that as long as he could destroy Xiang Shaoyun's main body, there was nothing to fear from the clone. He did not give Xiang Shaoyun any chances as he slammed his palm toward Xiang Shaoyun's head. The attack was fast and powerful, strong enough to kill Xiang Shaoyun with one strike.
Xiang Shaoyun was unable to escape as the attack was locked onto him, but he could still freely use his Imperial Nether Domain. The instant his opponent attacked, he released the Imperial Nether Domain and blocked the palm with boundless soul power. A massive explosion erupted within the domain.
"You won't be able to escape," said Ming Abi. He used all his strength, trying to end the battle as quickly as possible.
The soul mark attacks and chains collapsed before Ming Abi. He seemed to be trying to tear even the domain itself apart. Xiang Shaoyun's clone hurriedly retreated. He couldn't allow Ming Abi to do too much damage in the domain since he was the one who would suffer.
The Yin Mother Sword granted Xiang Shaoyun a massive increase in strength. With a combat strength no weaker than Ming Abi's, he finally forced Ming Abi out of the domain.
"I won't rest until you're dead!" Xiang Shaoyun was furious. He stopped hiding his strength and attacked with all he had.
There were nine stances to the Yin Sword Technique. Each stance was incredibly powerful. Xiang Shaoyun had only practiced a tiny bit of it, yet he could already unleash incredible power from it.
The endless sword rays assaulted Ming Abi constantly, leaving him in a sorry state. His chain had already been cut into several segments, and numerous wounds could be seen on his body. If it wasn't for his fast reaction time, he would have died.
Ming Abi wanted to counterattack, but Xiang Shaoyun was no slower than him. He wasn't given any chances to react. Even his innate abilities weren't too effective against Xiang Shaoyun. He felt incredibly gloomy. He even considered surrendering. But as the imperial uncle, he would lose all his prestige if he surrendered to a junior.
I can't be defeated! I need to kill this mongrel! thought Ming Abi.
He decided to use his final trump card. After Ming Abi avoided one more attack from Xiang Shaoyun, his devilish energy transformed into a devlish mist and surged toward Xiang Shaoyun. The mist moved rapidly, instantly enveloping Xiang Shaoyun. Xiang Shaoyun naturally wouldn't allow the mist to swallow him. He started hacking at his surroundings, trying to disperse the mist.
Devil Mist Dao Transformation!
Ming Abi himself transformed into a part of the mist, and his body started dissolving, fusing with the mist.
"No!" Ming Fu was aware of how terrifying this technique was. She cried out in alarm.
This was a technique that would harm both oneself and one's enemy. Ming Abi was essentially trying to die together with Xiang Shaoyun.
Boom!
While Ming Abi was dissolving his body, a loud sound suddenly rang out, the eruption so powerful even the colosseum started collapsing. Just as the force of the eruption was about to reach the nearby Imperial Nether Clan members, two imperial uncles moved, instantly dissolving the incoming shockwave.
"Lord Ming Abi has actually transformed himself into part of his technique! This is too terrifying."
"This nineteenth prince is too strong. Not only does he have our clan's innate abilities, but he has also formed a clone. Coupled with his extraordinary combat strength, not even Lord Ming Abi is his match. The nineteenth prince is so strong it's not even fair!"
"If the nineteenth prince can survive even this, he will absolutely grow into a terrifying existence in the future."
"Definitely. Will the fusion of our blood and human blood always result in an offspring so terrifying?"
"Dream on. The lowly humans aren't even worth being mentioned in the same sentence as our clan. The nineteenth prince is probably an exception, a miracle."
"Let's see if the nineteenth prince is still alive. Lord Abi is really quite the ruthless one."
...
By the time the mist dispersed, the colosseum had been reduced into ruins. Xiang Shaoyun was lying in the corner, coughing up blood. It was clear for all to see how terrifying the attack was.
After all, Xiang Shaoyun's physical body was comparable to even a Saint's body. Even someone like him had suffered so much damage. Anyone else would have been reduced into a puddle of blood.
How about Xiang Shaoyun's clone? Was it destroyed? How about Ming Abi? Had he killed himself? Ming Abi had naturally survived. Hovering above the colosseum was a devil core. Devilish energy swirled around the core, slowly taking form as though a devil was being constructed.
That's right. The Devil Mist Dao Transformation was the forbidden devil technique. The moment one used it, one would destroy one's own body. However, it also granted one an incredibly destructive attack.
The Devil Mist Dao Transformation might seem like a technique where one perished with one's enemy, but that wasn't the case. Ming Abi's devil core remained and could still reconstruct his body. Of course, one needed to have excellent mastery over this technique to utilize it in this manner. Additionally, one also needed to be no weaker than a Devil Saint. Otherwise, one would only die after using the Devil Mist Dao Transformation.
After using this technique, Ming Abi would need to consume other items to fully rebuild his body. For a long time after this, he would be in a weakened state. This was truly a forbidden technique that would harm others without benefiting oneself.
He was confident Xiang Shaoyun would be dead. After all, how could a body survive after the soul was destroyed? Unfortunately for him, he couldn't be more wrong.
Like a voice from hell, Xiang Shaoyun's voice suddenly rang out, "Looks like you're out of tricks. Time for you to die."
