Chapter 465 Soul Attack (1)
Qin Dynasty territory.
Inside the palace, a tense atmosphere permeated the solemn and magnificent imperial study.
Emperor Qin Wu was discussing state affairs with his ministers when suddenly his usually composed expression changed drastically, as if he sensed a great crisis was about to befall him.
Qin Wu's figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared without a trace from the imperial study.
But the next moment, he appeared in the Divine Martial Palace like a ghost.
Upon entering the Divine Martial Palace, Qin Wu immediately shouted, "Everyone, listen up! Quickly activate all the great formations and strengthen defenses with all your might! As long as I remain in seclusion, you must not be the slightest bit lax or careless!"
He then added, "Go immediately and inform the Queen to come!"
Qin Wu's voice resounded like a great bell throughout the third layer of the spatial turbulence, and his imposing presence commanded no one to dare to disobey him in the slightest.
Those guards who were on regular patrols or quietly cultivating reacted instantly upon hearing the emperor's order.
They moved with practiced ease, activating all the defensive formations as quickly as possible.
In an instant, various lights flashed and intertwined, tightly protecting the Divine Martial Palace.
At the same time, the major commanders within the Divine Martial Palace also broke through their barriers without hesitation and took up their posts at various key points within the palace, ready for battle.
However, the ministers who remained in the imperial study looked at each other in astonishment and confusion.
They simply couldn't understand why His Majesty would leave in such a hurry; this had never happened before.
Consequently, the ministers couldn't help but start speculating wildly: what could have made His Majesty so anxious? Could it be an invasion by an enemy country? Or a rebellion within the country? All sorts of thoughts flashed through their minds.
Just as everyone was discussing the matter, the first cabinet minister decisively interrupted their thoughts, saying, "His Majesty has an urgent matter to attend to, which must be of great importance. We cannot let this delay state affairs; it is more important to continue discussing the important matters!" Upon hearing this, the ministers had no choice but to temporarily suppress their doubts and refocus on the unfinished issues.
His hasty departure was by no means accidental.
Just now, a strange and mysterious power suddenly emerged without warning, like a ferocious beast, rushing straight towards his soul.
Faced with this sudden and exceptionally fierce soul attack, Qin Wu dared not be negligent in the slightest.
Without hesitation, he made a decisive decision to leave the scene immediately, rush back to Shenwu Palace, and immediately announced that he would go into seclusion to deal with this thrilling crisis.
Fortunately, Qin Wu has now successfully broken through to the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm, greatly increasing his strength.
More importantly, he has skillfully integrated hundreds of laws into the depths of his soul, making it indestructible and unbreakable.
Otherwise, with just that terrifying soul attack, he probably wouldn't have had time to return to the Divine Martial Palace before he would have perished.
However, Qin Wu knew very well that this attack must have been a sinister scheme by either the Immortal Vein or the Demon Realm, and it was clearly a meticulously planned conspiracy specifically targeting him.
Fortunately, he had taken precautions and planned ahead.
Back when he was exploring the Chaos Land, he stumbled upon a mysterious secret realm by chance.
There, after many hardships, he finally found a priceless treasure, a precious artifact specifically for protecting the soul.
This treasure was carefully kept by Qin Wu and played a crucial role at a critical moment.
The moment that mysterious force launched its soul attack, the treasure seemed to sense the life-or-death threat its master faced and activated itself.
In an instant, it burst forth with dazzling light, releasing a mysterious and profound power that quickly enveloped Qin Wu's soul, forming an indestructible shield that steadily withstood wave after wave of surging and incredibly powerful soul attacks.
As time went on, the enemy's attacks became increasingly fierce, crashing against Qin Wu like a surging tide.
Each attack was like a heavy hammer striking a drum, causing Qin Wu's soul to tremble violently.
Qin Wu dared not be negligent in the slightest. He gritted his teeth and used all his strength to activate the treasure of his soul to resist this sudden and exceptionally powerful soul attack.
The treasure shone with a dazzling light, like a blazing sun, attempting to dispel the darkness and evil before it.
However, that mysterious power seemed to grow stronger without end, and gradually, it condensed into a hideous and terrifying demonic phantom deep within Qin Wu's soul!
This demon has three heads and six arms, each arm gripping a terrifying weapon that gleams with a cold light.
It bared its fangs and claws, spewing raging flames from its mouth, and launched a frenzied attack on Qin Wu's soul with overwhelming force.
The demon's offensive was like a whirlwind, each strike containing earth-shattering power.
It wields six weapons, slashing, stabbing, chopping, and sweeping with ever-changing moves that are impossible to defend against.
Qin Wu's soul struggled to hold on under such fierce attacks, teetering on the brink of collapse.
Despite facing such a desperate situation, fortunately, thanks to the existence of that secret treasure, Qin Wu stubbornly held onto his soul's defenses.
The powerful energy released by the treasure formed an indestructible shield around Qin Wu's soul, repeatedly blocking the demon's fierce attacks.
However, Qin Wu was already drenched in sweat, with large beads of sweat rolling down his forehead.
Faced with such a terrifying soul attack, even he, a veteran of countless battles, felt unprecedented pressure.
If he is not careful, his soul will be completely torn apart by the demon, and he will be reduced to ashes.
The thrilling battle reached its climax, with both sides exchanging blows and refusing to give an inch.
For a moment, the entire soul space was filled with a tense and oppressive atmosphere, as if even the air had frozen.
Who will emerge victorious? The outcome remains to be seen...
Just as Qin Wu was exerting all his strength to resist the fierce attack from the depths of his soul, Jiang Pingle, in the palace, also received an urgent message.
Knowing that Qin Wu was in danger, Jiang Pingyue was extremely anxious. Without hesitation, she put down everything she was doing and rushed to Qin Wu's location as quickly as possible.
When she finally arrived at the scene, what came into view was Qin Wu's face, contorted with extreme pain, especially the large beads of sweat rolling down his forehead like broken pearls. This scene made Jiang Pingle's heart clench, and she couldn't help but gasp.
You see, in Jiang Pingle's mind, Qin Wu had always been a resolute, courageous, and fearless man. She had never seen him in such a disheveled state before.
From this, one can imagine just how enormous and perilous the crisis Qin Wu was facing at that moment was!
However, Jiang Pingle was not frightened by the scene before her. After a brief moment of shock, she quickly came to her senses, knowing that time was of the essence and there was no room for delay.
She rushed to Qin Wu in one stride, and then sat down steadily opposite him with her knees crossed.
Then she took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and began to mobilize the powerful force that had been hidden within her body for a long time—the power of the laws and techniques that she had comprehended and mastered.
As Jiang Pingle continuously adjusted her breathing rhythm and completely immersed herself in controlling the laws and techniques, an invisible yet exceptionally powerful energy gradually emanated from her body.
She gritted her teeth and focused intently on guiding the energy toward Qin Wu, attempting to alleviate the pressure he was under and provide him with necessary assistance and support.
Jiang Pingle understood perfectly well that Qin Wu had summoned her at such a critical moment because he hoped to use her abilities to overcome this difficulty together.
