Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Many people hesitated for a moment before ultimately choosing to continue following Ling Xiao forward.

If they left on their own, who knows what dangers they might encounter?

Following the main group is always a bit safer.

When Mo Dao heard Ling Xiao mention the name of the Soul Temple, his eyes visibly changed.

It was clear that he had also studied these underground ruins and knew of the Soul Temple’s existence.

Moreover, it’s very possible that the reason he entered underground this time was for the Soul Temple.

”Since no one’s leaving, let’s keep moving. Don’t say I didn’t warn you; the territory of the Darkfire Tribe will be even more dangerous.”

Ling Xiao said calmly, then continued onward.

After walking about a mile, the group suddenly felt the air become scorching hot.

Looking forward, they saw a world that appeared to be scorched.

Everything here was pitch black, unlike the gray from before, and the air was filled with a charred stench.

The most terrifying thing was the constant eruptions of black flames from the ground.

”Everyone, you’d better fly in the air and avoid stepping on the ground, because no one knows what might happen.”

Ling Xiao reminded them and then took off first.

A pair of pitch-black Dark Wings appeared on his back.

However, his speed wasn’t fast because he didn’t know what dangers lay ahead.

Dan Feng and the others followed closely beside him, proceeding just as slowly.

But Mo Dao clearly couldn’t stand the speed. Since he already knew the Soul Temple was in the Darkfire Tribe’s territory, he wanted to reach there first.

This guy was indeed strong, and his flying speed was extremely fast.

Some martial artists, influenced by him, also started speeding up.

”Aren’t we going to speed up?”

Mo Yu asked.

”No need. To open the Soul Temple, we need this map. Do you think this map is an ordinary one? It’s a treasure crafted from special materials, a key to unlocking the Soul Temple.”

Ling Xiao shook his head and said, ”Since they want to clear the way for us, let them go ahead.”

Just as all the martial artists stepped into the Darkfire Tribe’s territory, another team pursued them from behind.

”Damn, we’re still a step too late; they’ve escaped into the Darkfire Tribe’s land.”

The pursuers were the Nightwind Clan’s Night People.

These Night People had returned and brought powerful reinforcements, even finding their own clan leader.

”No matter, the Darkfire Tribe’s territory is more dangerous than ours. There resides a powerful fiery creature granted to their First Clan by Lord Night Demon.”

Among them, there was a tall and pretty middle-aged woman with dark skin.

Despite her dark complexion, her figure and face were exquisite.

She was riding a white fierce tiger, which looked extremely mighty.

This person was the clan leader of the Nightwind Clan.

”Is the clan leader referring to Duke Blackflame?”

Someone beside her asked.

”Indeed, Duke Blackflame and his minions love the blood of surface humans the most.”

The female clan leader sneered.

”Yes, and not only that, there’s a deep grudge between the Darkfire Tribe and the surface humans.”

An elder next to her stroked his beard and said, ”Back then, the Darkfire Tribe warmly invited a surface human to visit the underground world, hoping to ease relations between surface and underground races.

However, that surface human stole the Darkfire Tribe’s treasure and killed the Holy Maiden who was guarding it at the time, an unforgivable crime.”

”That surface human should have been the Crown Prince of the Tianhai Empire, right?”

”Now, he’s probably the King of the Tianhai Empire.”

”Enough of that. Leave a team here to keep an eye on those people. If they return, notify me immediately, and the rest of you come back with me.”

The female clan leader glanced at the backs of the surface martial artists, two silhouettes flashing in her mind.

She had once loved a surface martial artist, but alas, he couldn’t accept her feelings because of another woman.

At the time, she was very angry, but after so many years and seeing numerous heartless men, she started to admire that man instead.

What a devoted man he was.

...

Above the Darkfire Tribe’s territory, strange flames occasionally rose.

Swaying, as if drifting with the wind.

Yet Ling Xiao, looking at these flames, didn’t have a good expression.

”We’re being watched.”

Ling Xiao warned.

”The soul force released by those flames has completely locked onto each of us.”

”Are those living beings with life awareness?”

Someone asked.

”Probably.”

Ling Xiao wasn’t very sure either.

The underground world of the Night People Tribe has many things different from the surface, things even he couldn’t explain.

Whoo-hoo!

As they pondered, a strange sound of flames erupting was suddenly heard.

Ling Xiao quickly turned his head to see, right in the middle of the group, the ground suddenly cracked, and a ball of fire burst out.

This flame was human-shaped but without legs, floating in mid-air.

It directly embraced one of the Yin-Yang Realm martial artists.

That Yin-Yang Realm martial artist was instantly turned to ash, and the Yin-Yang Elemental Force surged into the human-shaped flame.

Boom!

Boom boom boom!

One by one, human-shaped flames emerged from the underground, attacking the advancing martial artists.

Mo Dao and Prince Wu, who were at the forefront, naturally became the primary targets.

However, both were too powerful, and those human-shaped flames were incapacitated before they could even attack.

But the other martial artists fell into a bitter struggle.

”Kill! These human-shaped flames are extremely rare and pure fire energy. Don’t waste them after killing; absorb them if you can. I’ll protect you.”

Lingxiao’s Taiji Eye activated, clearly seeing the circulation of Yin-Yang Elemental Force within the human-shaped flames.

After being refined by the flames, the Yin-Yang Elemental Force became purer and could be directly absorbed.

This is perhaps the coexistence of danger and opportunity.

Dan Feng and the others listened to Ling Xiao and almost simultaneously spread out, attacking the human-shaped flames they had chosen.

The overall strength of these human-shaped flames wasn’t very strong, with the strongest only around the Seventh Level of the Yin-Yang Realm.

The weakest was only at the First Level of the Yin-Yang Realm.

Therefore, everyone could choose an opponent most suited to themselves.

After each extinguishing one human-shaped flame, they returned to Ling Xiao’s side to begin energy absorption.

Ling Xiao directly summoned the Hell Dragon Talisman.

The terrifying Hell Dragon Talisman floated in mid-air, sucking in all nearby human-shaped flames, which then wailed painfully in the Hell Dragon Fire.

A large amount of pure energy was infused into Ling Xiao’s body, and he felt his cultivation level making a pleasing breakthrough once again.

However, not all martial artists were as at ease as Ling Xiao.

Except for those above the Tenth Level of the Yin-Yang Realm, other martial artists were not so lucky.

After all, there were too many human-shaped flames. While they could kill one, they couldn’t kill a second, and many were fatally attacked from behind.
