Su Yu's Spiritual Power transformed qualitatively, breaking through to a tangible and substantial realm.
Vaguely, Su Yu could sense a certain capability lurking deep within his Spiritual Power.
Deep within the Evil Demon Forest.
Kong Deming released his Soul Power, with substantial Spiritual Power clashing against the Evil Emperor's Spiritual Power.
Xuan Ziweng's face was grim and pallid, evidently injured by that moment's psychic shock. Fortunately, having absorbed the Holy Soul Grass and being nourished by the soul ring of a hundred-thousand-year Evil Eye Tyrant, his Spiritual Power also transformed, reaching a tangible yet insubstantial realm. With Kong Deming's timely protection, he was not seriously harmed.
In truth, even if his Spiritual Power hadn't broken through, he wouldn't die; at most, he would fall into a coma and need a period of rest. Previously, Xuan Ziweng's Spiritual Power had already reached the pinnacle before forming a substantial state, but without any stimulation or opportunity, he had not broken through.
Moreover, due to his Martial Soul traits and researching Soul-guiding Devices, this was not the first time he had fallen into a coma and he had some resistance to it.
Now, merely his pallid complexion was already quite good.
"Human, you're courting death!"
The Evil Emperor sensed the aura of his recently deceased clansmen on Xuan Ziweng, the vivid blood-red soul ring exactly one of his clansmen's!
Furthermore, on Kong Deming, he sensed two similar auras.
"Evil Emperor, do you really want to go all out against me?"
Kong Deming snorted coldly, Spiritual Power emanated from his body, a Sun and Moon shadow emerging behind him, vaguely possessing a cohesive feeling.
Simultaneously, rays of brilliance burst from various parts of his body.
In an instant, the Super Battle Armor completed its fusion, the Armor Domain unfurled, and the Sun and Moon shadow behind him seemed to merge with the domain of the battle armor.
Armor Domain, Sun and Moon Radiance.
This was an Armor Domain developed entirely to assist his Martial Soul Fusion skill.
It made the Martial Soul Fusion acquired postnatally more harmonious, and the power unleashed was even more potent.
The Sun and Moon Radiance Domain also maximized the capabilities of the Damask Tulip.
With the Super Battle Armor fusion, the Armor Domain and Martial Soul Fusion skill combining with the Spirit Domain, Kong Deming was elevated to his peak state.
Apart from the Soul-guiding Device, he revealed everything he had.
The Evil Emperor felt a deadly threat.
"Hmm?"
At this moment, the Evil Emperor sensed Su Yu's presence.
"Hmph!"
Kong Deming felt the Evil Emperor's Spiritual Power fluctuations, his expression changing slightly.
However, he did not immediately act to shield Su Yu from this wave of harm from afar.
How could the Evil Emperor allow Su Yu to complete a breakthrough with the aid of his psychic shock, exploding at the moment just before Su Yu's transformation?
Kong Deming, too, erupted with Spiritual Power, offsetting nearly half of that outburst. Sensing that more concentrated and formidable Spiritual Power, Kong Deming nodded with satisfaction.
The Evil Emperor was indeed once again ignited with fury.
"Human, you search for death!"
A colossal eye as vast as an abyss unleashed a terrifying psychic storm.
Kong Deming's expression also shifted slightly.
"Evil Emperor, do you really want a mutual destruction?"
"The fish might die, but the net won't necessarily break!"
"Hmm?" Upon hearing the Evil Emperor speak so vauntingly, the Sun and Moon shadow behind Kong Deming instantly fused, with thirty-six long rods revolving around him, and on the Heart Protection Mirror of the Super Battle Armor, a sun and moon radiance was emitted.
Kong Deming infused the Sun and Moon Divine Light Shield into the Super Battle Armor.
Though he hadn't yet successfully crafted a Level 10 Sun and Moon Divine Light Shield, he had completed the fabrication of a Level 9 Sun and Moon Divine Light Shield, which, when combined with the Sun and Moon Radiance Armor Domain and the Sun and Moon Radiance Martial Soul Fusion skill, resulted in an explosion of power that was absolutely terrifying.
The Evil Emperor's Spiritual Power fluctuations subsided, his cold voice warning Kong Deming.
"Within a century, if another human enters the Evil Demon Forest, I will kill one! If another descendant perishes, I will personally visit your human capital, Mingdu."
"The Evil Emperor's statements are without issue." Kong Deming breathed a sigh of relief, then swiftly departed the Evil Demon Forest with Xuan Ziweng.
Deep within the Evil Demon Forest, a gigantic black eye hovered, staring fixedly in the direction of Kong Deming's departure. Around it were eighty-one terrifying tentacles exceeding five hundred meters in length, releasing waves of Spiritual Power from the depths of the eye.
"Has human power truly grown to this extent?"
Just now, from Kong Deming, the Evil Emperor felt a lethal threat, a threat he had only previously felt during his battle with Di Tian.
"Don't venture out alone in these next thousand years." A newly advanced hundred-thousand-year Evil Eye Tyrant heard the Evil Emperor's reminder, waving its tentacles as if expressing dissatisfaction, yet seemingly agreeing to follow the orders.
The Evil Emperor could lead the Evil Demon Forest and the humans to mutual ruin.
But the cost might be the extinction of the Evil Eye Race, from flourishing to obliteration.
This was unacceptable to him.
Differing from the Xingdou Great Forest, the core of the beast tide in the Evil Demon Forest was his Evil Eye Race clansmen, how could he not feel pained?
Moreover, to be honest, the Evil Eye Race's roots on the Douluo Continent were too shallow, and once they were obliterated, the Evil Eye Race might truly cease to exist.
Whereas the Dragon Race was different.
Also of utmost importance, humans had gods supporting them, whereas soul beasts did not...
After developing for a full ten thousand years, the highest echelons of human Soul Masters had barely made progress, if any, in terms of peak combat strength. Before Kong Deming's appearance, both the Evil Emperor and Di Tian dared confidently claim they could defeat or even kill the strongest human fighters.
