The most straightforward way to deal with enemies is to kill them, but that is not the most valuable method.

By intimidation and enticement, transforming the enemy into an ally, forcing a defiant opponent to abandon their previous stance and turn against their own kind.

In such a transformation, the blackened Wang Xuan would certainly become heartless and ruthless, and facing his own race with more ferocity would certainly be extremely effective in striking at the momentum of the Human Race.

The Divine Spirit Lingming was curious to see if Wang Xuan, when faced with the threat of death, upon intimidation and enticement, would lower his proud head and crawl at his feet.

Wang Xuan, however, laughed loudly, full of sarcasm, shook his head, and said, "You underestimate me too much and also underestimated my integrity, have you heard the saying?

'Better to be shattered jade than intact tile,' you should abandon this thought!"

Why would I not continue being a True Inheritor of Immortal Martial Mountain and instead become the other's servant? If given ten years, I can certainly enter the True Immortal Domain.

By that time, crushing a Divine Spirit Lingming would be no difficult task, am I insane to submit to the Alien Race?

Senior Sister Lin Xiyue, renowned in Immortal Martial Mountain, is considered a goddess in the eyes of many disciples, untouchably sacred and incredibly distant. If anyone had the chance to get close to her, they would not let go. Wang Xuan had to admit, Senior Sister was an unparalleled beauty, and from the perspective of possessiveness and the desire to conquer, he felt having Lin Xiyue by his side was a delight.

But Lin Xiyue had her own will, not something to be disposed of by others. Forcing her to do things she didn't want, even under threat of death, was as pointless as trying to threaten a proud peony with its own death. Wang Xuan was not the type of man who would exhaust all means to possess a woman's body; often he would consider the will of the women around him, disdainful of coercion.

"Is that so?" The Divine Spirit Lingming laughed loudly, saying, "Then I will imprison the Primordial Spirit of the woman by your side, keeping her with me to humiliate for thousands of years, turning her into a woman for all to enjoy!

I want to see if you are truly indifferent to such a beauty and are willing to let her suffer this humiliation, falling from heaven into boundless hell."

Lin Xiyue frowned slightly, finding these words extremely harsh, but in her heart was without worry or fear, for someone who did not fear even death, being threatened by anything outside of death was utterly laughable.

"Junior Brother, do not heed his words. Though he may be at the True Immortal level, if I wish to dominate my own death, he cannot stop me."

She smiled faintly, thinking it might be difficult to live, but allowing her Primordial Spirit to perish and return to the end was still achievable.

"Dying standing, my heart finds tranquility; living kneeling, no matter how long, it is better dead than alive."

Lin Xiyue's proud coldness and fierceness far exceeded her usual aloofness like the serene moonlight. Facing such so-called threats, there was no hesitation in her heart.

"Senior Sister's beauty surpasses that of the peerless jade, not just in looks, figure, and temperament, but also in an untouchable sanctity untainted by all evils.

If I could accompany Senior Sister to the Yellow Springs today, it would be worth it."

Wang Xuan remained steady, regardless of the number of Alien Race around him, his head still held high. In such an environment, Lin Xiyue did not argue over Wang Xuan's intimate words.

She foresaw that today's death for herself and Wang Xuan was inevitable, but such a death was straightforward, neither she feared nor did Wang Xuan disappoint her.

Contemptuous of the Alien Race, disdainful of life and death, Wang Xuan in her eyes was a man with an iron backbone, though with some minor flaws, they were insignificant.

"Good! Very good!" The Divine Spirit Lingming clapped as he laughed, "As expected of the True Inheritor of Immortal Martial Mountain, you have opened my eyes. Since you wish for death, I shall grant it!"

With a wave of his hand, several Spirit Race appeared, all of them with the soul bodies at the Celestial Immortal level, rushing towards the two with whistling momentum.

Lin Xiyue's white clothes fluttered as a foot-wide silver long band in her hand danced, immediately surrounding her with ice and snow, forming a domain that froze and shattered souls.

Coming from the Mountain Gate, though she was not adept in battle, she possessed considerable combat power.

The soul bodies of three Spirit Race had already refined golden Primordial Spirits, with a faint black hue within, looking extremely bizarre.

Entering Lin Xiyue's domain of ice and snow, their movements suddenly stalled, reduced by a third in speed. At this moment, the three golden spirit bodies exchanged glances and split into three directions, encircling Lin Xiyue.

A silver ribbon danced like a swimming dragon, preventing any Spirit Race's Primordial Spirit Body from approaching.

This seemingly gentle and harmless ribbon carried a cold that even the Spirit Race's Primordial Spirit Body was unwilling to touch. Upon contact, their forms would freeze as if chilled to the bone, and large chunks of Primordial Spirit shards would be sliced off by the ribbon.

Seeing this scene, Wang Xuan frowned deeply. Although Senior Sister seemed to render the three alien races helpless, in this encirclement without attack, Lin Xiyue would eventually succumb to exhaustion and be defeated.

The Spirit Race, born without a Flesh Body, is akin to ghosts of the deceased, but their Spirit Body does not easily dissipate and can survive independently. In their civilization's cultivation system, they are divided into the innate Nether Tier, equivalent to the Human Immortal level Yin Tier, followed by the Yang Tier, Primordial Spirit Body, Will Body, and so on.

Dealing with Spirit Race at the Primordial Spirit Body level is challenging. Pure Yang Celestial Immortals who have refined their souls hold the Primordial Spirit, eroding the opponent with Magical Power and Pure Yang Qi, gradually gaining the upper hand. To tackle one, even if the Primordial Spirit is invincible by nature due to the uniqueness of the Primordial Spirit Sword Embryo, Wang Xuan still needs time to erode the opponent's Soul Body.

"Senior Sister, let me assist you!" Wang Xuan held his long knife, with the Sword Gang formed by Soul Power clinging to its blade. The Primordial Spirit controlled his Flesh Body as the Primordial Spirit Sword simultaneously flew out, attacking fiercely from two fronts.

Upon entering the icy domain, Wang Xuan could not help but feel chilled. This cold seemed to be an energy invasion, which he had to fend off with his blood essence and Primordial Spirit power.

From a close distance, Lin Xiyue's elegant and swift movements, like a startled swan or a divine bird, were extraordinarily captivating. Her beauty seemed to quell the urge to kill, her magnificence disorienting to the heart and mind, making it hard to wield weapons.

From afar, Wang Xuan still had the leisure to appreciate the unparalleled dance. Since Lin Xiyue entered the sect, her few outings made witnessing her dance almost a luxury. But now, he realized this dance could erode one's Heart Spirit.

"This is a kind of Primordial Spirit Technique with the Power of Slaughter, be careful, Junior Brother." Lin Xiyue's Heart Spirit was fully focused on the three alien races, among them two at Lower Rank, one at Middle Rank. She wouldn't be able to hold on much longer.

Wang Xuan concentrated to shake off the influence. Thankfully, he was not Lin Xiyue's target, or his Combat Power would have been halved.

His Flesh Body wielded the knife while the Primordial Spirit Sword advanced, engaging in combat with two alien races in an instant. Through the blood-flesh connection, his Primordial Spirit controlled his Flesh Body, fully suppressed in the clash, while the Primordial Spirit Sword's sharpness hit the opponent multiple times, with the Godslaying Soul Annihilation talent immediately wounding them.

As for the other alien race, Lin Xiyue faced off against it.

The three Primordial Spirit Body Spirit Race jointly attacked, among them a formidable opponent comparable to the second layer of a Celestial Immortal, with the spectating alien races' anger gradually dispelled.

This was their base, their pride hurt before in the Lingming Celestial Tier battle, allowing Wang Xuan to momentarily dominate. Seeing this scene now, they naturally regained confidence.

"Kill them! Kill them!" Blood and rage surged in their hearts.

The potent one among the Primordial Spirit Bodies circled Lin Xiyue for a long time before smirking: "I've seen through your tricks, surrender now!"

Suddenly, his speed soared, zigzagging through the obstructing silver silk ribbons, enduring multiple collisions, he charged directly into the inner circle, aiming for Lin Xiyue's graceful head.

Lin Xiyue took a deep breath, her gaze growing deeper. Her ribbon's material was special; once it hit the opponent, it would attack in endless waves. Yet this alien had found its flaw.

The strength of this alien far exceeded her expectations!

Wang Xuan's Primordial Spirit suddenly burst with golden light, engulfing his opponent. The alien was entirely enveloped within his Primordial Spirit Sword, as if ingested.

This was an extremely dangerous method, with the alien ferociously attacking and colliding within the Primordial Spirit, attempting to erode and devour Wang Xuan's Primordial Spirit.

But on Wang Xuan's Primordial Spirit Sword, mysterious patterns formed a complex Array Map, densely inscribed with runes from the Sword Dao and Path of the Primordial Spirit.

No matter how the Primordial Spirit Body struggled, it couldn't harm Wang Xuan. However, due to the opponent's internal strikes, Wang Xuan felt his Primordial Spirit tearing apart, the pain immense.

Be aware that this alien was a Primordial Spirit Body comparable to a Pure Yang Celestial Immortal, with total Primordial Spirit power surpassing his. Yet now he merely transformed his Primordial Spirit into a net to bind it, eradicating it with the intricacies of the Primordial Spirit Sword Embryo. One slight mistake and the alien would escape.

But leveraging the Godslaying Soul Annihilation talent, with time, Wang Xuan was confident of exterminating the opponent.

Another alien naturally recognized Wang Xuan's prowess, considering breaking his Primordial Spirit Sword from inside and out. But Wang Xuan's sword was exceptionally fast and inherently restrained Spirit Bodies, its Power of Slaughter outstanding.

Within a quarter hour, the alien could no longer hold on, retreating at once into the already cross-legged Lin Xiyue's Sea of Consciousness. Observing Lin Xiyue wrapped like a mummy, Wang Xuan too charged in.
