Chapter 503: Chapter 420: Silent Dark Punishment Chapter 503: Chapter 420: Silent Dark Punishment “Star Envoys?” The Demon Soul raised its head, gazing at the Black Ball Domain in mid-air ahead. “I didn’t expect to encounter Star Envoys…”
“What a… pleasant surprise!”
A grin spread across the Demon Soul’s face, with a fierce, excited gleam already overflowing from its eyes!
It wasn’t because the appearance of the Star Envoys had caused a slight change for the Wolf Vein that Xia Xuan had taken.
It was purely because the Demon Soul desperately wanted to slaughter a few Star Envoys!
The memory of being shot by the Sagittarius was deeply ingrained in the Demon Soul’s mind.
How could its resentment be resolved without killing a few Star Envoys?
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Amidst countless explosions, numerous Flame Arrows were shot at the Black Domain from within, much like many chopsticks were being thrust at a rubber ball.
However, the Black Domain’s resilience was extremely strong. Regardless of the penetration or explosive power, the numerous Flame Arrows couldn’t pierce through.
The Demon Soul’s expression grew serious. “So, this is the ability of Capricorn. The abilities of a Star Envoy, indeed, are not that easy to break through…”
Su Yuan and the Demon Soul had fought the Star Envoys multiple times, so it was well aware that this was the main characteristic of the Star Envoy Level Power of Soul.
At the same level, it was nearly impossible to brute force through the Star Envoy Level Power of Soul with Star Power disregard its characteristic but only find its weakness to destroy it.
Take Pisces Barrye’s Absolute Avoidance, for example; an upfront attack could not hit the opponent at all.
Or Sagittarius Arthur’s Gold Sparrow Destruction; once marked, getting hit again would inflict multiple damages, which couldn’t be dispelled or avoided.
But the Black Ball Domain of Capricorn Blake in front of it was extremely difficult to break through from within and escape.
“I wonder if Xia Xuan is a match for this Star Envoy. With Red Lotus Karma Fire and Divine Fire Skill, perhaps she could fight back.
But what the outcome would be still depended on the specific abilities of this Black Ball Domain…”
Unable to see the situation inside, the Demon Soul could only judge based on the fluctuation of the Black Ball Domain.
However, before this, the Demon Soul sent a signal to its main body through mental contact.
Then it stared at the Black Ball Domain in the sky and waited quietly.
Within the Black Ball Domain, the roaring sound initially continued but quickly fell silent after a while.
The Demon Soul frowned, not knowing what was happening, but it seemed a bad sign for Xia Xuan to become quiet so quickly.
It didn’t take long before the Black Domain suddenly flowed like water, quickly retracting to Blake’s chest.
Seeing the situation within, the Demon Soul’s pupils constricted.
“So quickly, defeated?”
Blake was holding Xia Xuan by the neck with one hand, lifting her high. In the other hand was her Pulse Drawing Bead, sealed with the Wolf Vein.
Xia Xuan, in tattered clothes, had many sword wounds all over her body, with blood constantly dripping down.
Her arms hung limply after having their tendons cut, an appallingly miserable sight.
Despite this, Xia Xuan still glared at Blake with a bloodshot eye, gritting her teeth in defiance.
Blake’s lips curled into a smile as he spoke. “Nice. I love those stubborn eyes of yours. If you surrendered so easily, it’d be no fun at all.
When I take you back, break your Star Sea, cut off your limbs, and bind you to the crucifix at the camp gate, torturing you endlessly…
Let’s see how long those unyielding eyes can last?”
Xia Xuan’s pupil trembled, then suddenly spat a mouthful of blood onto Blake’s face!
That handsome, pale face paused, then he stuck out his tongue to lick Xia Xuan’s blood, laughing heartily. “So aromatic and sweet…”
“Per…vert…”
Seeing this clearly deranged individual, Xia Xuan felt a looming sense of dread.
Suddenly stopping his laughter, Blake tightened his grip on her neck and flung her to the ground.
“Boom!”
A cloud of dust rose; Xia Xuan crashed into the ground, causing it to crack, spewing out another mouthful of blood, and her consciousness was even more blurry.
Blake landed beside her, smiling. “Let’s see how much more blood you can spew. Don’t hold back, I’ll gratefully accept it all.”
Saying this, Blake reached out to grab her again to slam her into the ground.
Just then, Blake sensed something, he swiftly drew the Black Cross Sword from his waist and placed it before himself.
The next moment, a black light flashed towards him!
“Clang!”
The clash of blade and sword echoed with a crisp sound.
Blake saw the figure before him, a young man in a Blood Robe holding a Demon Red Saber.
It was the Demon Soul executing a Flash attack!
Blake, caught off guard, was forced back several steps.
“What keen senses and reactions…”
The Demon Soul’s eyes narrowed. Blake’s response was swift.
It had chosen this moment when Blake let his guard down to unleash its Flash.
And to avoid detection, it had restrained its energy fluctuations, not even activating the Great Sun Burning Body Technique, yet Blake had still noticed.
Xia Xuan opened her eyes, seeing the blood-robed silhouette before her, wanting to speak but spewed another mouthful of blood instead.
The Demon Soul raised an eyebrow, turned back, and took out an elixir, attempting to feed her.
However, Xia Xuan kept her lips tightly shut, reluctant to take an unknown elixir.
The Demon Soul frowned. “A Healing Pill, stop fighting it!”
Xia Xuan, after a brief struggle, chose to trust this unknown stranger.
At least, he stopped Capricorn and was also a Southerner.
Seeing Xia Xuan no longer resisting, the Demon Soul directly forced the elixir into her mouth.
As the elixir went down her throat, Xia Xuan felt a warm and slightly numb sensation from her numerous wounds, confirming it was indeed a Healing Pill.
However, as the healing effect took place, a strong sense of drowsiness started to overwhelm her.
“Not good!”
Xia Xuan panicked, trying to resist the drowsiness with her will.
But her eyelids grew heavier, and her vision turned black as she lost consciousness completely…
“The Turtle Breath Revitalizing Pill, its effect is still quite strong…”
This elixir was one of the third-level Healing Pills that Su Yuan had exchanged in the Military Supply Hall before going out to hunt Star Dust along with Ruan Ruan back then.
Since Ruan Ruan possessed the Sea Soul Protection Healing Skills, it was rarely used.
Among the many elixirs exchanged back then, the Turtle Breath Revitalizing Pill had the best healing effect but induced drowsiness upon consumption.
The Demon Soul gave Xia Xuan this pill for two reasons: her injuries were indeed severe.
And it planned to take the Wolf Vein Blake had upon defeating him. Making Xia Xuan sleep now would avoid further conflicts later.
At this moment, Blake, who had just been forced back by the Flash attack, appeared unhurried. He stood at a distance with his sword, gauging this newcomer.
“It seems you’re not from the Great Flame Sky Patrol. So, are you trying to rescue her?”
“No…” The Demon Soul held the saber with one hand, pointing at Blake, a grin spreading across its face. “I just want to kill you, that’s all!”
“Kill me?” Blake burst into laughter, as if hearing the biggest joke. “A mere ant, dreaming of overcoming a Star Envoy…?”
As he finished speaking, the Demon Soul, cloaked in Green Flames, lunged forward with its saber!
“Rude!” Blake’s eyes flashed coldly, raising the Cross Sword in response.
In their subsequent clash, Blake was once again forced back by the Demon Soul!
“This guy has decent Strength and Star Power!” Blake narrowed his eyes, observing the green flames on the Demon Soul, suddenly realizing. “Someone who uses Fire… and has hidden here all along…”
Blake’s eyes narrowed further. “So, it’s you?”
The Demon Soul instantly understood Blake’s meaning upon seeing his Capricorn uniform.
“Are you talking about those useless subordinates of yours?” The Demon Soul smirked. “Killing the small fries summons the big fish. You, the dignified Star Envoy, seeking revenge for them, how noble of you.”
Blake wasn’t about sentiment but maintaining his Star Envoy dignity!
Blake’s expression turned grim. “Since that’s the case, there’s no need for further talk. Let’s cut off your limbs and take both you and that woman to the camp!”
“Black Night Judgment, Silent Dark Punishment!”
With a low shout from Blake, the black spherical domain reopened, instantly engulfing the Demon Soul…
The light faded sharply, and in an instant, the Demon Soul found itself in a pitch-black space, even unable to see its own body upon looking down.
The phrase “can’t see your own hand in front of your face” had never been more fitting.
Yet, the Demon Soul soon realized this wasn’t simply darkness, but… visual loss!
Before it could adapt to the situation, rich combat experience raised an intense warning in the Demon Soul’s heart, prompting it to dodge to the side!
Almost simultaneously, a searing pain on its back marked a not-so-deep wound, with blood trickling down.
Had it not been for the Green Flame Burning Body and Overlord Body enhancing its defense, this strike might’ve been fatal!
Yet this wasn’t the main issue. The main issue was…
The attack came with no sound and no detectable Star Power fluctuation!
Without knowing it was within Capricorn’s Power of Soul domain, it wouldn’t even know what inflicted the wound.
“So… not even hearing and spiritual sense work?”
The Demon Soul’s pupils constricted and its expression turned utterly serious.
