Like two wooden stakes, they stood silently in place, unmoving, with only a flicker of colorful light shimmering in the eyes of Lian Yiyue and Li Junyao. A strange aura emanated from the two, and the previously tense atmosphere suddenly became extremely quiet.
In this silence, only those who truly understood the Soul Duel Technique could comprehend the peril and murderous intent it entailed.
The Soul Duel Technique is a combat art that involves the soul; once unleashed, it can only end when one side is completely Fallen. It can be described as a madness where if the enemy does not die, one will perish instead. Even if the enemy dies, one may still suffer severe injuries, continuing until death.
The rows of menacing giant stone spikes surrounding Lian Yiyue had completely vanished. Mo Tong, who had been crouching on the ground, had now released his hands from the floor and stood up.
Watching the swirling colors in the eyes of Lian Yiyue and Li Junyao, and feeling the strange fluctuations radiating from them, Mo Tong's face still bore a hint of trepidation. He knew that if this Soul Duel Technique were directed at him, he would have no way to evade it.
"This crazy woman!" Mo Tong cursed inwardly, his gaze towards Lian Yiyue filled with intense murderous intent.
However, despite this strong killing intent, Mo Tong did not dare to act.
Before the Soul Duel Technique was completely resolved, if Lian Yiyue were to suffer serious injury from his attack, then due to the connection of their energies, Li Junyao would also be severely harmed—possibly even more so. The result would be both of them falling together.
This is the madness and wonder of the Soul Duel Technique; it is not a technique that a normal person could create. Legend has it that this technique was devised by a genius during the early days of the Charming Immortal Sect when it faced dire challenges and hardships.
Although it was terrifyingly reckless—once unleashed, it could lead to mutual destruction—it was precisely this mad technique and a group of crazed individuals that pulled the Charming Immortal Sect back from the brink of collapse. It was during that time that the great renown of the Soul Duel Technique was established.
Little did anyone expect that after so many years, this terrifying technique would reappear. Of course, no one wished to witness such a horrifying technique or hoped to experience it firsthand.
Li Junyao maintained her posture with her hand extended towards Lian Yiyue's forehead; however, the Black Radiance that had been swirling at her fingertips had quietly vanished at some point. The sinister smile on Li Junyao's face gradually faded into pallor as time passed. Her body began to tremble slightly, and upon closer inspection, her eyes—once shimmering with colorful light—now revealed deep-seated fear. Even her life force was continuously waning!
In front of Li Junyao, although Lian Yiyue also showed signs of paleness and her aura was weakening, she was clearly in a much better condition than Li Junyao.
"What should I do?" Mo Tong grew increasingly anxious as he carefully compared their conditions.
If this situation continued to develop, it was highly likely that Li Junyao's soul would shatter completely and she would be utterly Fallen while Lian Yiyue would suffer severe injuries. This was not what Mo Tong wanted to see.
As he watched Li Junyao's life force grow weaker and felt powerless to help her, Mo Tong paced back and forth anxiously. Each time he passed by Lian Yiyue, a terrifying glint flashed in his eyes.
Yet he could not act! This made him feel even more frustrated; under this suppression, his aura became darker and more terrifying—as if he were a powder keg ready to explode at any moment.
"Mm?" Suddenly, Mo Tong stopped in his tracks, his gaze falling on the figure behind Lian Yiyue, whose eyes were tightly shut, pressing their body closely against Lian Yiyue's back.
"The Charming Immortal Sect's Celestial Maiden has never been rumored to be involved with any man. Even that useless Azure Vine can only resort to such methods. I never expected there would be a man who could make her carry him all the way, even in the face of such danger, without letting go."
"Who is this person?!"
Mo Tong's eyes sparkled as he fixed his gaze on Fang Chen's half-exposed profile.
He knew very well that if it weren't for this burden on Lian Yiyue, he and Li Junyao would find it far more difficult to stop her than before, and it was highly likely that she would escape.
If that were the case, then this person must be extremely important to Lian Yiyue!
In an instant, a bright idea flashed through Mo Tong's mind.
"I can't kill you now, nor can I attack you, but I can start by killing your lover, making him die slowly before your eyes," Mo Tong sneered.
In the Soul Duel Technique, although both the caster and the target remain frozen like wooden puppets until one of them is defeated in battle, it does not mean they are completely unaware of their surroundings. Mo Tong intended to use Fang Chen to influence Lian Yiyue!
The Soul Duel Technique was created by the Charming Immortal Sect. As a core disciple of the Charming Immortal Sect and a practitioner of this technique, Lian Yiyue naturally understood soul battles much better than Li Junyao and had a significant advantage. Moreover, in a one-on-one fight without Mo Tong's assistance, Li Junyao was indeed weaker than Lian Yiyue.
All these factors combined made the final outcome obvious. Even Mo Tong himself could not change anything; at most, he could cause both of them to die together. But now with Fang Chen as a variable, Mo Tong saw a glimmer of opportunity—a chance to reverse the outcome!
As Mo Tong muttered to himself, uttering fierce words in an attempt to shake Lian Yiyue's resolve, he moved closer to Fang Chen on Lian Yiyue's back, his murderous intent growing stronger.
"Mm?" Suddenly, Mo Tong's expression shifted as his gaze landed on Lian Yiyue, a look of wild joy appearing on his face: "Her aura has weakened!"
"It really works!" Feeling the sudden weakening of Lian Yiyue's aura and the flicker of colorful light in her eyes, Mo Tong laughed heartily.
At the same time that Lian Yiyue's aura suddenly weakened, Li Junyao, who had been trembling violently and in extremely poor condition, began to show signs of recovery as if revived from death.
"Good!" Mo Tong's expression changed. Without even making a move yet, Lian Yiyue had already been affected. If he were to gradually kill that guy on her back afterward, what would happen to Lian Yiyue? This outcome could definitely be reversed!
"Die!" Mo Tong sneered, his large palm reaching toward Fang Chen on Lian Yiyue's back.
Since Lian Yiyue had already unleashed the Soul Duel Technique, a desperate move that would only end in death, only one of them—Li Junyao or Lian Yiyue—could survive. Naturally, he had to ensure Lian Yiyue's demise, and along with her, this guy...
Time slowed down at that moment as Mo Tong's hefty hand inched closer to Fang Chen. Just as his fingertips brushed against Fang Chen's body, an overwhelming aura of Frenzy surged through his fingers. A look of shock appeared in Mo Tong's eyes as he trembled violently; his hand recoiled as if it had been electrocuted.
Fang Chen, who had been motionless against Lian Yiyue's back, suddenly opened his eyes.
Then, he shook slightly and gently fell from Lian Yiyue.
Looking at the motionless and significantly weakened Lian Yiyue before him, Fang Chen's expression was complex.
"I’m awake," he whispered softly.
As his gentle words resonated, Lian Yiyue, who had been in a highly unstable state, began to stabilize her aura and once again suppressed Li Junyao fiercely.
Feeling Lian Yiyue's aura gradually returning to normal, Fang Chen nodded lightly. He then shifted his gaze from Lian Yiyue to the astonished Mo Tong not far away.
"How do you want to die?" Fang Chen said calmly, his face devoid of any expression. His serene demeanor was somewhat terrifying, and a chilling glint flickered in his pitch-black eyes.
His words were quiet and lacked any overwhelming force, yet at that moment, a wave of dread surged within Mo Tong.
"Danger! Extreme danger!" Mo Tong thought in fear. Looking at the indifferent youth before him, he suddenly felt as if he were facing one of the top-ranked, nearly hopelessly powerful Hunters from the Purple Sun Mountain Range!
"This guy..." Mo Tong felt bitter inside.
If given a choice, he would rather abandon Li Junyao and flee right then. However, sensing the faint aura surrounding him, Mo Tong knew that any movement on his part would provoke this youth into launching a devastating attack.
Thus, turning to escape would only hasten his demise. Since fleeing was not an option...
"Split!" Mo Tong suddenly crouched down and slammed his hands onto the ground with a roar.
The ground beneath Fang Chen trembled violently, as if it were being torn apart by unseen hands, suddenly revealing a gaping fissure several dozen feet wide. At the same time, a wave of brownish-yellow earth energy surged from the crack, pinning Fang Chen in place.
"Earth Explosion Technique!" Mo Tong struck the ground fiercely once more.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ground beside Fang Chen erupted suddenly, generating a devastating shockwave. Powerful waves of force slammed into Fang Chen, whose body seemed to be solidified by the power of the earth.
Dust flew everywhere, completely engulfing Fang Chen.
After completing this onslaught, Mo Tong finally let out a slow breath.
"That should do it," he muttered to himself.
These two consecutive Frenzy attacks were far more powerful than the Earth Demon Spike he had used against Lian Yiyue. In this advantageous position within the Purple Sun Mountain Range, such an explosive assault would force even those of Heavenly Pride to retreat. He had witnessed both Frenzy attacks strike directly at Fang Chen.
However, at that moment, Mo Tong's pupils suddenly constricted, and disbelief washed over his face as his body trembled with fear. Through the dissipating dust storm, a tall figure gradually emerged.
It was none other than Fang Chen!
