Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 734: Chapter 734: Enemies Meet Part 1

Martial Artists who can enter the True Demon Forbidden Land, at the very least, should be Half-step Celestials. In other words, these Martial Soul Inheritances are no worse than Half-step Celestials.

If one were to obtain these inheritances, even without considering the Martial Soul itself, just using them to strengthen one’s own Martial Soul would be a significant gain.

Therefore, many had gathered there, assaulting the Undying Soul.

”Let’s go over and have a look as well, we might be able to reap some benefits!”

Ling Xiao suggested.

Not taking advantage of a good opportunity would be pure idiocy.

Everyone naturally had no objections to Ling Xiao’s proposal. They had come here for chances at fortune, and it would be better to quit early than to miss out on these.

The palace where the Undying Soul resided was located deep within the True Devil Palace of the former True Demon Empire.

From its internal structure, it seemed to be the place where the True Demon Empire’s court used to convene, and the Undying Soul was formed from the souls that perished here.

Its strength was formidable, to say the least. Currently, despite facing the assault of over three hundred people, it still had an easy time fending them off, displaying ferocity unlike any other, as if it simply didn’t care about their attacks.

The Undying Soul’s body was covered with a layer of Soul Armor completely condensed from Soul Power. Its defense was incredibly strong. Apart from a few Half-step Celestials with seventy percent strength capable of inflicting some damage to this Soul Armor, the attacks from the rest were almost futile.

To say they were merely tickling it was an overstatement, for the Undying Soul felt truly nothing.

”Brother Tang Jiu, I think it’s ineffective for us to be attacking haphazardly like this. The defense of this Undying Soul is too strong. It would be better if those of us with more than seventy percent Half-step Celestial strength take the lead in the assault, while the others supply us with their True Essence. What do you think?”

The speaker was Po Qian Jun from Dragon Sky Academy.

This man could talk on equal terms with Tang Jiu because his strength was only slightly inferior to Tang Jiu’s. If it came down to a real fight, it was uncertain who would win or lose.

”I think it’s feasible!”

Tang Jiu nodded in agreement.

”Yan Lie Huo, what do you think?”

Tang Jiu asked.

”Agreed!”

Yan Lie Huo, a disciple from the Mysterious Fire Sect, had ranked fifty-first in the last Martial Arts festival. If he agreed, the matter would be much easier to handle.

True enough, once he nodded his agreement, the rest of the Half-step Celestials with more than seventy percent strength also nodded their consent.

After all, to breach the defense of this Undying Soul, that truly seemed to be the only viable strategy.

”Lu Zhao is right, let’s organize the battle formation.”

”Damn, why should we supply our True Essence to them? If there are any benefits, why don’t they share some with us?”

”Keep your voice down, don’t let them hear. They have the strength to kill you as easily as flipping a hand!”

”You’re right. Besides, we can’t get past the Undying Soul guarding the great hall; we must eliminate it first.”

”Still, I’m not happy about it. Li Youdao and Tang Jiu slew so many of our Sect’s disciples, and now we actually have to help them. I can’t swallow this!”

No sooner had the person finished speaking than his head was severed by a flash of cold light.

The one who made the move wasn’t the Undying Soul but Tang Jiu.

He used his most proficient hidden weapon.

”Hmph, anyone else who spouts nonsense, I’ll send them straight to Hell now!”

Tang Jiu coldly snorted, ”You wretches should just follow orders obediently. Otherwise, what use do I have for you?”

”It’s despicable, to be killed just for voicing a complaint!”

”Now I really hope that Ling Xiao can kill this bastard!”

”That’s right, Tang Jiu is too tyrannical and shameless!”

Although no one nearby dared to speak out anymore, those who were farther away still whispered among themselves, burning with indignation.

The newly arrived people such as Lan Yu’er also had unpleasant expressions on their faces.

”Senior Brother Ling, you just offended that Tang Jiu. Let’s not join this commotion,” Lan Yu’er said, looking at Ling Xiao. ”After they have killed the Undying Soul, it won’t be too late for us to go over, even if we’re a bit late.”

Lan Yu’er was still worried about Ling Xiao getting into trouble.

However, no sooner had she finished speaking, than Ling Xiao responded with a slight smile, ”Sister Lan, that Tang Jiu has provoked public anger. This is the perfect opportunity to deal with him. Why shouldn’t we join in the fun? Just stay close to me, and he won’t be able to do anything to us.”

Having said that, Ling Xiao strode over.

”Sister Lan, let’s just follow Senior Brother Ling. If he could easily kill that Luo Tianyu, his strength must not be far behind Tang Jiu’s. There’s nothing to worry about,” said Dai Yuling with a smile.

”We have no other choice,” Lan Yu’er conceded, feeling somewhat unable to keep up with the times. Although she was not much older than Dai Yuling and Ling Xiao, her personality was extremely cautious, or rather, too lacking in confidence.

Indeed, Ling Xiao had so effortlessly killed Luo Tianyu; so what if Tang Jiu was a bit stronger than Luo Tianyu? Ling Xiao must be hiding his true strength, Lan Yu’er was very clear about that.

Moreover, as martial artists, one should be fearless. If one thinks only of hiding when faced with trouble, then one can never carve out a path in martial arts and will soon fade into the crowd.

Ling Xiao and the others had just appeared when they were spotted by Tang Jiu.

”You are still alive?” Tang Jiu was startled for a moment before sneering sinisterly, ”All of you come here. We need help against this Undying Soul. You go and test the strength of the Undying Soul first.”

Test my ass!

Everyone cursed internally.

It was clear to anyone with eyes that the strength of the Undying Soul had already been proven. Now, Tang Jiu making this kind of request was obviously trying to use the Undying Soul to eliminate Ling Xiao and the rest, saving him the effort of doing it himself.

”Idiot!” Ling Xiao looked at Tang Jiu disdainfully and said coldly.

Although it was just a simple word, it shocked many people around them so much that they covered their mouths and their eyes nearly popped out.

In their eyes, Ling Xiao had just been lucky to escape with his life before.

Now he even dared to insult and provoke Tang Jiu. Wasn’t this asking for death?

”What?” Tang Jiu was taken aback.

He could never have anticipated that Ling Xiao would not only disregard his order but even dare to curse him. This was something his proud heart could not accept.

”Good, very good. You should’ve left early after being lucky to save your life last time. I didn’t expect you to come here courting death now. If that’s the case, I’ll kill you first and see how powerful your mouth can be!” Tang Jiu sneered, the smile on his face looking somewhat ferocious.

”Just by yourself?” Ling Xiao scoffed, ”You can come and try now, I guarantee you’ll find out who the real fool is, the one who just barely escaped death.”

His momentum suddenly became sharp, like a sword condensed with Sword Qi, already aimed at Tang Jiu.

The battle with Luo Tianyu was not without gain.

In the midst of the fight, both his Destruction Will and Slaughter Will had improved one stage, one reaching the fourth level, the other the third.

Facing Tang Jiu, he naturally feared even less and even wanted to use Tang Jiu to continue advancing his three major Wills.

”Hahaha, wanting to die isn’t difficult. Today, I’ll let you know what fear is!” Tang Jiu began to laugh maniacally as he started to stir his True Essence.
