Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 1408: Chapter 1411: The Importance of Master

”An illusion?”

Yue Tian Ya was taken aback for a moment; he didn’t quite understand what Phoenix Immeasurable was saying.

”He, a mere Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artist, knows that facing you in direct combat, he wouldn’t stand a chance, so he used soul power to forcibly create an illusion to make you feel fear.

He’s not a member of the Soul Clan, so his soul power cannot kill, which means you have no reason to be afraid. As long as you maintain a steadfast heart in martial arts, you can break through such petty tricks.”

Phoenix Immeasurable looked at Yue Tian Ya with faint eyes and said, ”Don’t forget, you’re ranked fifth among the young strongmen of Changle Immortal Island. You’re a Fifth Cave Heaven Realm warrior, how can he, freshly promoted to the Third Cave Heaven Realm, compare to you?

If he could defeat you, he wouldn’t resort to such vile and petty tactics. Actually, he’s afraid of you.”

”How is that possible!”

Yue Tian Ya was suddenly stunned, his face flush with embarrassment.

He thought he wisely chose to avoid confrontation because he saw through Ling Xiao’s formidable strength. But from what he’s hearing, it seems like he was frightened by the illusion created by Ling Xiao?

This is simply too humiliating.

Ling Xiao clearly couldn’t defeat him, but just by using petty tricks, without any actual fight, managed to scare him away. If such a thing spreads, he’d truly have no face left in the Jianghu.

Yet disbelief aside, thinking back to Ling Xiao’s every action earlier, it was indeed possible.

Ling Xiao clearly only has the cultivation of the Third Cave Heaven Realm and had just battled two Fourth Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artists. How could he have the energy left to fight him?

Too foolish!

He truly was too foolish, making such a low-level mistake. How embarrassing.

”Ling Xiao, was I right?”

Phoenix Immeasurable looked at Ling Xiao again and asked lightly.

Ling Xiao smiled slightly.

Phoenix Immeasurable’s words were half right.

Facing a Fifth Cave Heaven Realm warrior is indeed not an easy task, especially since Ling Xiao had just gone through a battle and the energy consumption was not small.

So he chose to intimidate the opponent with soul power, letting the opponent back off.

But to say that his soul power cannot kill is purely due to Phoenix Immeasurable’s ignorance.

Ling Xiao cultivated two soul secret arts: one is the ”Soul Judgment,” and the other is the ”Soul Fragment Scroll.”

Both can kill!

Only Phoenix Immeasurable didn’t know that.

But for this old thing to see through his thoughts, it shows he has keener eyes than Yue Tian Ya.

As expected of a Yin-Yang Realm warrior. Despite having only the First Layer Cultivation, this insight truly is incomparable to others.

”Hehe, the Emperor is right, indeed I had no spare energy to deal with the Gentleman Sword, that’s why I used such petty tricks to scare him. I just didn’t expect him to be so timid and actually got scared by me.”

Ling Xiao smiled and shrugged.

What!

Upon hearing this, Yue Tian Ya immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

This Ling Xiao, despite his tremendous consumption, merely relied on cunning and momentum to scare him.

He felt truly embarrassed, never had he felt so humiliated before.

Shame, this would be a lifelong disgrace for the Gentleman Sword Yue Tian Ya.

”Yue Tian Ya, why do you need to dwell on this?

You are an outstanding disciple of Changle Immortal Island and a young talent at the Fifth Cave Heaven Realm.

Your future is bright and splendid.

On this path, you might face many troubles and difficulties.

But as long as you don’t retreat and face them head on, cutting through thorns and brambles, you won’t be ridiculed but rather respected by others.

Consider this as a lesson, and believe that if you encounter similar situations again, it won’t be like this.

This is not humiliation, but rather valuable experience for you.

The next time Ling Xiao tries to use such tricks against you, it will be meaningless.

Throughout history, little tricks and little cleverness are just the lower tier; true strength is the orthodoxy.

You have strength, so why fear such small tricks?”

For some reason, Phoenix Immeasurable began to console Yue Tian Ya.

Perhaps this Emperor was used to winning people’s hearts.

Changle Immortal Island is the Sect Master Island of the Phoenix God Empire, and Yue Tian Ya is the favorite pupil of the two Deputy Island Masters who hold real power.

Getting on good terms with him might be beneficial during the Phoenix God Empire’s elections in the future.

Perhaps this was Phoenix Immeasurable’s thought.

Phoenix Immeasurable’s words were like a heavy hammer pounding fiercely in Yue Tian Ya’s soul sea.

Making him feel, for an instant, a sense of clarity within his heart.

He suddenly realized that since his debut, everything had been too smooth for him.

Because of Changle Immortal Island, many dared not to really oppose him, resulting in a martial arts career that was too smooth, with almost no setbacks.

It was precisely because of this that he was so embarrassed today when he encountered Ling Xiao.

Phoenix Immeasurable’s words were to tell him that this was not misfortune but rather an opportunity.

After experiencing this setback, he should not feel ashamed but rather become even stronger.

Ling Xiao looked at Phoenix Immeasurable, feeling emotional; no wonder young geniuses need mentors, this is the reason.

Young people’s talents might be outstanding, but their experience is too shallow, unable to withstand storms.

If not enlightened by a master or elder, they might really do something foolish.

Even Ling Xiao had many mentors.

Though some were not formal teachers, they still guided him substantially, helping him avoid many detours.

”Thank you, Emperor, for your guidance. Yue Tian Ya will remember your words.”

Yue Tian Ya bent himself at a ninety-degree angle and bowed respectfully to Phoenix Immeasurable before turning to leave.

As he left, he threw one last sentence to Ling Xiao: ”Ling Xiao, today’s matter we’ll settle at the Dragon Phoenix Selection. Don’t say I didn’t give you a chance to grow!”

Ling Xiao smiled slightly and said, ”I’m afraid Phoenix Immeasurable’s words didn’t save you, but rather harmed you.”

”You don’t have to scare me anymore, it’s useless.”

As the voice came, Yue Tian Ya was already far away.

”Scare?”

Ling Xiao wasn’t scaring Yue Tian Ya.

He merely said he didn’t have the energy to deal with Yue Tian Ya today, not that he couldn’t.

These are two different concepts.

If Yue Tian Ya hadn’t been frightened by his soul power, Ling Xiao might have escalated to more intense measures to repel him.

At that time, Yue Tian Ya might have felt even more defeated.

”Mo Conɡ, you should go too. With me here, no one can kill you.”

Phoenix Immeasurable looked back at Mo Conɡ and said.

Although Mo Conɡ’s performance today was really bad, Phoenix Immeasurable was also very interested in the secret of Mo Conɡ coming back to life.

Saving Mo Conɡ might bring him significant benefits, so naturally, he wanted to do it.

”Thank you, Emperor, for your life-saving grace.”

Mo Conɡ joyfully cupped his hands and was about to leave.

However, suddenly Ling Xiao’s cold voice rang out: ”Leave? Mo Conɡ, have you forgotten something? Wanting to leave without revealing the secret of your revival, did I permit it?”
