At that moment, Annabelle Hung struggled to fend off the demonized Andrew Qi and Master Wuxiang, then dashed toward Shawn Young. Her voice reached him before she did: "Kid... things have gone south! Daniel Feathercloud is about to use a forbidden ritual to absorb the souls of a hundred thousand people and forge the legendary Nine Heavens Demoness! We’re no match for her—get the girls to break out and let’s retreat, fast!"
Shawn Young’s heart sank when he heard this. He didn’t know exactly what the Nine Heavens Demoness was, but he knew he couldn’t hesitate. He nodded and sprang into action, rushing toward Luna Xiao.
Before Shawn reached her, he hurled the Oblivion Katana from his hand, channeling a surge of Heavenly Gang True Energy. The blade flashed with a fierce, domineering light, slashing straight at the Japanese warriors surrounding Luna Xiao!
"Swish! Swish! Swish!" The blade light sliced through, blood spraying everywhere. Amid the screams of a dozen Japanese warriors, they were instantly cut in half and sent to the afterlife!
Shawn Young rushed in, grabbed the Oblivion Katana, and roared, swinging it several more times. Blood splattered as every Japanese warrior surrounding Luna Xiao collapsed into a pool of crimson!
With Luna Xiao freed, Shawn didn’t stop. He charged toward the group of ninjas encircling Foxy May and Rachel Sasaki.
These ninjas were all elite sent by the Iga Shinobi Clan, and there were plenty of them. Each was at least a mid- or high-level ninja, packing serious power. To finish them quickly, Shawn went all out—he maxed out his Heavenly Gang True Energy, poured it into the Oblivion Katana, then chanted a spell, reciting the Mystic Nine Seal…
"Lin! Bing! Dou! Zhe! Jie! Zhen! Lie! Zai! Qian..." (Mystic Nine Seal: A powerful Taoist mantra said to unlock protection, invisibility, and magical power. The nine words are ancient spell components used in Taoist magic.)
Finishing the spell, Shawn flung the charged Oblivion Katana with all his strength. "Whoosh!" The sword turned into a blinding white streak, its terrifying blade aura whipping through the crowd of ninjas, tearing a savage circle!
"Slash! Slash! Slash!"
