Asura Mad Emperor-Chapter 697: Death Domain
"Damn it, they're actually cowering inside and not coming out."
Qinchuan looked at the barrier in the center of the great hall, completely sealed off, and felt helpless for a moment—he hadn't expected these Ghost Race experts to be so enduring.
"Can I only watch helplessly as they absorb the Azure Dragon Essence Spirit?!"
Qinchuan thought to himself.
"Now, the only way might be this!"
Qinchuan took out the Chi Yue Spear from the Dao Lotus space, carefully caressing the runes on the handle, his gaze following along the handle until it finally locked on the grey spiritual pearl that had fused entirely with the spearhead and shrunken to the size of a thumb.
The spiritual pearl from the nine Great Secrets, mysterious and powerful. The Life Spirit Pearl he had originally obtained from the Dao Palace Secret Realm had created life from thin air in the Spirit Dragon Holy Land, much to Qinchuan's surprise.
Qinchuan had yet to master this grey bead, but he could generally tell that the grey aura it emitted, filled with death and destruction, was the direct opposite of the Life Spirit Pearl.
"I hope you can break through the pressure of the Azure Dragon Soul."
The Chi Yue Spear and the Death Bead were extremely precious, and he was not sure if they could penetrate the Array's pressure here.
If he couldn't break through, then he would have completely lost the Chi Yue Spear and the Death Spirit Bead.
But at this point, he had no other choice but to place his final hope on this spiritual pearl.
"Long Spear, Flame Phoenix Spear!"
Qinchuan, holding the long spear, emitted a golden ripple that rapidly expanded in all directions.
"Break!"
As he thrust the Chi Yue Spear in his hand, a streak of light appeared in the air, bright and comet-like in its speed, leaving behind an afterimage in the void. It moved with unstoppable force, accompanied by powerful energy fluctuations.
The Azure Dragon, suppressed in this palace for countless years, seemed to sense the unusual nature of the Chi Yue Spear at this moment, causing the surrounding Water Element Laws to become violent.
The Great Dao Laws surged wildly, compressing space at this time, as the heavy power of laws continuously pressed towards the Chi Yue Spear.
And with the violent suppression of the Azure Dragon Essence Spirit, the speed of the Chi Yue Spear also slowed down.
"Could it be that even the Chi Yue Spear is helpless?"
Seeing this scene, Qinchuan's eyebrows twitched continuously as the pressure of the laws gathering around the Chi Yue Spear grew stronger.
However, that grey aura had not yet appeared.
"Could it be that even the invincible mysterious grey aura is suppressed by the Azure Dragon Essence Spirit and cannot emerge?"
Just as Qinchuan was pondering this.
"Boom!"
The golden tip of the Chi Yue Spear finally erupted, and a burst of grey energy suddenly overflowed from the spiritual pearl, forming a circular domain ten feet in radius around it.
Within the domain, there was an abundance of the grey of death.
"It actually formed a domain field!" Qinchuan's eyes blazed.
He had forged the Chi Yue Spear for some time now, and occasionally, during battles, a surge of grey aura would overflow from the bead, often yielding surprising effects.
But there had never been a domain field before; now, under the pressure of the Azure Dragon Essence Spirit, it had actually formed one.
The power within the field was many times stronger than before.
"Perhaps, it really can break through this place's laws!" Qinchuan was excited, his gaze fiery as he continued to watch the Chi Yue Spear.
Within the grey domain, the originally tumultuous Water Element Array could be seen visibly withering at a visible rate, until it completely lost its energy.
As the domain unfolded, the Chi Yue Spear, which had slowed down, seemed to gain new energy, speeding up once more. It turned into a streak of light, piercing through the laws and stabbing towards the black barrier in the center of the great hall.
The grey domain of the Chi Yue Spear touched the black barrier created by the Ghost Race experts.
"Crack!"
There was no earth-shattering explosion, no terrifying glare, just an extremely faint sound, like that of a bronze mirror cracking.
Then, the black barrier was covered with cracks, splitting inch by inch.
```
The barrier constructed by the four Ghost Race powerhouses shattered like a toy under the effect of this domain.
Relying on the pressure of the Azure Dragon Essence Spirit, Qinchuan and the others couldn't approach, sealing their five senses and spiritual sense, focusing solely on absorbing the soul essence.
Thus, it was only when the barrier broke that everyone clearly saw the Chi Yue Spear hurtling towards them.
The four had no idea how the long spear had broken through the Azure Dragon's pressure, and at the moment, they had no energy to worry about it.
"Audacious!"
Cang Yuan bellowed, leaping up. He stretched out a pair of obsidian-like arms, his wild ghost qi roiling like raging waves, attempting to block the piercing Chi Yue Spear.
But in the next moment, a grey domain enveloped the four of them.
"What!"
At the same time as they were shrouded in the grey domain, Cang Yuan felt a terrifying presence.
It was the aura of death, too intense to face directly.
This terrifying aura of death didn't come from the outside, but from deep within him.
At the same time, he felt his life force rapidly declining and the fear of death overshadowed his heart.
"Run quickly!"
The instant realization hit them, this was not something they could fight against, and they retreated rapidly towards the back.
However, just as the four Ghost Race powerhouses took a step away, they saw their bodies transforming into tiny particles of dust.

The death domain had completely disintegrated their physical bodies into lifeless microscopic particles.
And they watched with their own eyes as their bodies turned to dust.
"How... can this be? What kind of energy is this exactly?"
The four of them had this thought flash through their minds at the same time.
But the grey domain of death didn't give them time to think.
The next moment their True Spirits also perished completely, not entering into the cycle of reincarnation, nor did they enter the Immortal Burial Site. They truly died, turning into nothingness.
Qinchuan also felt a significant shock in his heart at this moment.
"This Death Spirit Bead is completely different from the Life Spirit Pearl in the Dao Palace Secret Realm.
One has the power to create life out of nothing, while the other brings absolute death."
Meanwhile, the Chi Yue Spear didn't stop there; it continued thrusting towards the center of the great hall, targeting the Azure Dragon Essence Spirit.
"No good! It must not destroy the Azure Dragon Soul!"
Qinchuan felt a shock go through him, fearing that the Death Spirit Bead would also kill the Azure Dragon Essence Spirit.
If the Azure Dragon Soul is killed, it would be akin to releasing the Ghost Emperor's will that was suppressed here.
Then his purpose for this trip would have been in vain.
"Little Chi, come back!"
Qinchuan and the Chi Yue Spear had long been of one mind; he called out in his heart in a low voice.
But then.
He saw that the Chi Yue Spear was unmoved and continued its assault on the Azure Dragon Essence Spirit.
"Come back!"
Qinchuan frowned, feeling that there was still a connection between him and the Chi Yue Spear, but at this moment it seemed to have developed its own will and did not respond to Qinchuan's call.
At this time, the domain emitted by the Chi Yue Spear had already completely enveloped the ripple-like essence spirit.
As expected, even the Azure Dragon Essence Spirit of Ancient Times, being enveloped in the mysterious grey domain, quickly dissipated.
This grey domain was the absolute domain of death, capable of rendering all other laws and Great Dao ineffective, even the Azure Dragon couldn't escape it.
