"What's going on? Could the Soul Extinguishing Sword backfire on its master?" Yuan Ming frowned, his expression shifting unpredictably.

Although he had found information about the Soul Extinguishing Sword from Sha Hao's memories, Sha Hao wasn't the sword's creator, so the information was incomplete.

He had long suspected that the sword's qi could bypass an enemy's defenses, directly attacking and devouring their soul. Such a terrifying power must come with a significant cost.

It seemed that the sword could indeed easily kill enemies of higher cultivation stages, but the price was that it would backfire on its master, making it a double-edged sword that harmed both others and oneself.
