Chapter 132: Chapter 132: The Second Layer, Soul Stealer

"Master, there’s killing intent."

Jiang Chen was walking toward the Alchemy Master Guild with Zang Jun and Xi Feng.

They were almost at the Alchemy Master Guild.

Zang Jun and Xi Feng seemed extremely sensitive to killing intent. They both spoke at once, their gazes sweeping their surroundings warily.

Jiang Chen, of course, had already noticed it.

The killing intent had appeared in an instant.

He said coolly, "Follow my orders. You are not to act without my command."

His Bloodthirst Pills were extremely precious; he wouldn’t use them lightly.

He didn’t want to expose the secret of his Bloodthirst Pills too early.

Just then.

"Kill!"

Suddenly, dozens of men in black rushed out from the surrounding buildings in broad daylight.

They charged straight for Jiang Chen.

Every single one of them was brimming with killing intent.

The color drained from Zang Jun and Xi Feng’s faces.

They still had no idea what kind of effect the Bloodthirst Pills in their hands had.

But with their current Cultivation, they knew the instant they sensed the assassins’ attack that they were no match for their opponents.

Because those assassins were all experts in the Warrior Realm.

"Get back, now."

Jiang Chen spoke without hesitation after quickly scanning the assassins.

He ordered Zang Jun and Xi Feng to retreat.

Without a second thought, Zang Jun and Xi Feng turned and fled into the crowd, which immediately scattered in a panic.

No one could react in time to assassins appearing so suddenly in broad daylight.

Jiang Chen, however, understood that the assassins were there to kill him.

They had to be from either the Ximen Family or the Bai Family.

’They want to kill me with small fry like this?’

There were dozens of assassins, all with Warrior Cultivation, the strongest of whom had reached the Warrior Ninth Heaven.

In that moment, a cold light flared in Jiang Chen’s eyes.

"Die!"

The dozens of assassins had a very clear target. Surrounding Jiang Chen, they closed in for the kill without hesitation.

The fastest of them was already right in front of him.

Inside Jiang Chen’s body, the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique began to circulate.

With him at its center, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi was plundered, forming a swirling vortex that surged endlessly into his body.

Nothing within a ten-meter radius could escape his perception.

His Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique could be described as a truly heaven-defying Cultivation Technique.

Within ten meters, everything was instantly under Jiang Chen’s control.

Whether it was the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi or the assassins’ every move, all was perfectly clear to him.

Within this ten-meter radius, Jiang Chen was a god; he was everything in this pocket of space.

At the same time, a sharp light flashed in Jiang Chen’s eyes.

He let out a thunderous shout.

"Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique, First Layer, Qi Stealing!"

Immediately, an endless suction force appeared and began to plunder all the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi covered by the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique.

At the same time, Jiang Chen roared again.

"Second Layer, Soul Stealer!"

That’s right—Jiang Chen could now use the second layer of the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique: Soul Stealer.

Soul Stealer could be used to directly rip out a Martial Cultivator’s soul and destroy their physical body. It was an incredibly domineering technique.

As his voice fell.

BOOM!

A terrifying, pale-yellow tornado formed from Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi appeared around Jiang Chen.

It began to rage violently.

The Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi across half a street in Hanwu City was thrown into chaos, making it impossible for anyone nearby to absorb it.

This was the terrifying effect of the second layer, Soul Stealer.

The charging assassins discovered this to their horror.

Jiang Chen had disappeared into the dreadful tornado.

The man charging at the front felt as if he had entered a dead zone, completely devoid of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, the moment he got close to Jiang Chen.

He couldn’t absorb any Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi at all.

In his brief moment of hesitation.

SWISH!

A section of the tornado, radiating a chilling aura, instantly appeared before him.

In a flash, it swept the man inside, spinning madly like a dancing demon.

It began to pull at the man with a wild, sucking force.

The expert, a master of the Warrior Ninth Heaven, was caught fast, as if pinned to the spot. The man was terrified beyond belief.

He couldn’t believe his body had been brought to a dead stop.

Worse, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi within him began to drain away frantically, as if it had a death wish, pulled from his body by the tornado outside.

In just a moment, nearly half of his internal Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi was gone.

"No, how can this be?"

He was horrified. According to the Patriarch, Jiang Chen was only at the Warrior Fourth Heaven, yet he, a master of the Warrior Ninth Heaven, found himself completely powerless.

’I have to get out of here...’

The thought flashed through his mind. He had completely underestimated Jiang Chen.

He never expected to suffer such a loss.

He wanted to escape, but he quickly found that he couldn’t.

The chilling tornado then swept the Warrior Ninth Heaven master up completely, and began to whip him around and around inside.

As it thrashed him about, it continued to violently drain the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi from his body.

In just a few short moments, the man’s Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi was sucked dry.

Without Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, the man’s entire Cultivation was instantly reduced to nothing.

After all, Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi is the source of a Martial Cultivator’s power. Without it, a Martial Cultivator loses their Cultivation.

The man, dizzy and disoriented inside the vortex, had long since lost control of his body. He was completely unable to resist Jiang Chen’s bizarre tornado.

As he lost his Cultivation, he began to tremble with fear.

"Soul Stealer, explode for me!"

Suddenly, Jiang Chen roared.

POP!

In that instant, the man felt as though his body was being sliced into countless pieces by innumerable sharp blades.

Just like a popping balloon, he vanished without a trace.

He had been sucked dry and blown apart by Jiang Chen’s Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique.

The tornado of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi around Jiang Chen continued to expand.

It spun ceaselessly with Jiang Chen at its center.

WHIRRRRR...

The tornado seemed to create a roar that shook heaven and earth.

One by one, the assassins charged forward, right into Jiang Chen’s tornado.

Immediately, a series of agonized screams rang out.

It seemed they had all encountered something terrifying.

The moment they stepped within ten meters of Jiang Chen, they lost control.

Their internal Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi drained away, and their Cultivation plummeted.

Death was all that awaited them.

Jiang Chen was like a Demon God, harvesting their lives one by one.

POP! POP! POP!...

A series of explosions sounded one after another.

One by one, the assassins were sucked dry and blown apart.

Vanishing without a trace.

"No! Run!"

Seeing this, some of the remaining assassins were scared witless, their legs trembling in fear.

They had watched their comrades disappear one after another into Jiang Chen’s tornado.

And then explode.

They completely forgot their mission to assassinate Jiang Chen.

The only thing that mattered was escaping with their lives.

Ignoring everything else, they began to flee.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen sent the tornado dancing down the street like a phantom. It moved like a demon unleashed, sweeping across the street with incredible speed.

"No!"

One who was too slow felt his body being pulled by some unseen force.

He tried to struggle but found it impossible to break free.

WHOOSH!

The next moment, he was sucked into the tornado.

"AHH..."

POP!

After a final, tragic scream, everything fell silent.

The raging tornado swept through the street. One by one, the assassins vanished into it, leaving only a few of the fastest, who had already fled in a panic.

Everyone who witnessed this scene gasped in shock.

They were completely stunned by Jiang Chen’s terrifying Divine Techniques.
