Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 1606: Chapter 1606: 9997 Paths

In the sky, two figures relentlessly pursued each other.

One moved like a stream of fire, flying rapidly.

The other, with black energy like fog, chased as if a black cloud sped.

Hiss... Hiss... Hiss...

In the air, over a dozen strands of spider silk shot out.

The spider silk was so fine it was hard for the naked eye to see; its swift movement in the air appeared just like a flash of white light, passing by in an instant.

The spider silk instantly wrapped around Xiao Yi’s arms.

The distance between Poison Robe and Xiao Yi always remained neither too far nor too close.

At this distance, Poison Robe could not catch up.

Nor could Xiao Yi get out of Poison Robe’s sight.

Since he couldn’t catch up, Poison Robe could only try to use his Ghost Controlling Thread to block Xiao Yi.

As long as he interrupts for a moment, he is confident he can make Xiao Yi utterly unable to escape.

However, Xiao Yi didn’t even need to make any move as the wrapped spider silk instantly broke off.

On his hands, the dark and menacing scale armor was terrifyingly hard, frighteningly sharp.

Hiss... Hiss... Hiss...

The broken and recoiling spider silk gave Poison Robe a shock.

”What kind of Beast Martial Soul does this kid have.”

He, Poison Robe, was no unknown figure but a protector of the Evil Lord Mansion, notorious and feared.

In the vast Central Region, who doesn’t know?

With his status, his experience, he could not recognize what kind of Beast Martial Soul this was at all?

That body with pitch-black scale armor, the sinister spines, was astoundingly hard and sharp.

His spider silk could easily bind or even cut through Holy Artifacts.

Yet when it touched that dark scale armor, it broke instantly.

Moreover, those spots of red light between the scale armor.

The spots of red light seemed ordinary, but you could clearly sense a terrifying flame aura from them.

Within such a weak point of red light, it actually contained explosive flame power.

It was as if the whole arm was a supreme hand born from flames.

Such a demon beast, he admitted he had never seen or heard of before.

And this monster before him, who was being chased, had awakened such a terrifying Martial Soul, no wonder Purple Flame Yi Xiao’s name could shock the Central Region.

Boom...

At this moment, Xiao Yi unleashed a flame attack.

Ahead, a Purple Flame Wandering Dragon aggressively approached.

Poison Robe waved his large hand, and several strands of spider silk easily sliced through and scattered the Purple Flame Wandering Dragon.

The Purple Crystal Spirit Flame didn’t trouble him at all.

Boom...

”Embodied in Ten Thousand Poisons.” Poison Robe coldly shouted again.

The figure transformed into countless poisonous insects, increasing speed greatly.

Ahead, Xiao Yi, the Five-Colored Ring in his hand, similarly changed, transforming into six-colored flames.

Boom... Xiao Yi’s speed also increased significantly.

”Damn.” Behind, Poison Robe’s face grew more sullen and ugly.

Whoosh... the countless poisonous insects transformed back into Poison Robe’s body again.

Poison Robe’s speed dropped instantly.

Ahead, Xiao Yi’s speed similarly dropped abruptly.

”Hmph.” Xiao Yi glanced back at Poison Robe, sneering.

He knew that Poison Robe couldn’t catch up to him anymore.

However, he couldn’t completely shake him off either.

The two could only continue this tug of war.

Of course, he didn’t plan on completely getting rid of or escaping.

He was just buying some time.

Nowadays, his Fire Control skill has far surpassed his Sword Dao skills.

However, when compared to someone like Poison Robe, it’s still far off.

Someone like Poison Robe, at least controls over 9998 paths, almost the strongest Supreme Expert.

He’s only a step away from being a Legend of this generation.

Even his supremely powerful flame couldn’t do anything to him.

No, to be precise, it isn’t that it can’t do anything.

The supremely powerful flame is the strongest flame in the world.

When said it can’t do anything, it’s just that his current cultivation power is too weak; especially the gap when compared to someone like Poison Robe is too vast.

After all, he is only at the Seventh Layer of the Saint Emperor Realm.

The Seventh Layer of the Saint Emperor Realm, just two more layers to the Ninth Layer of the Saint Emperor Realm; then comes the Peak of Saint Emperor Realm, Martial Arts Great Power, followed by Supreme Expert.

Among Supreme Experts, there’s a gap of 10 levels; each level is a complete Martial Arts gap, distinct as heaven and earth.

This calculation lets you know what a huge gap exists between Xiao Yi and Poison Robe.

Ninth Layer of Saint Emperor Realm, Peak of Saint Emperor Realm, Martial Arts Great Power, Supreme Expert; the gap is almost an instant kill difference.

Within Supreme Experts, 9990 paths to 9999 paths, also an almost instant kill difference.

Xiao Yi only had the strength to challenge a Supreme Expert due to the supremely powerful flame.

This already has filled a huge gap.

But beyond that, the gap grows ever larger, and the supremely powerful flame becomes unreachable.

Until he uses the Nine Yang Reincarnation Technique to blend the power effects of various strong flames, only then can he achieve nearly an instant kill on 9993 path Supreme Experts.

Currently, he relies more on these Beast Hands and Beast Feet.

These Beast Hands and Beast Feet are what make Xiao Yi feel the most astonished.

Each one almost has the power to completely level one Heaven and Earth Martial Arts path in the Supreme rank.

Two Beast Hands, one Beast Foot, level 3 complete levels.

Under the Five-Colored Flame Ring, he gained nearly instant kill strength against 9993 path Supreme.

Level 3 more levels.

That means, under the boost of these two Beast Hands and one Beast Foot, Xiao Yi directly gained nearly instant kill strength against 9996 path Supreme Experts.

In this state, it should equate to the strength of a 9997 path Supreme Expert.

But, this is merely the Five-Colored Ring.

What if it reaches six-colored?

The Six-colored Flame Ring, Xiao Yi cannot use it freely for the moment.

Under the fusion of six flames, the Nine Yang Ring self-reincarnates, causing his internal enormous Primordial Power to self-reincarnate.

Such enormous Primordial Power forcibly twisting fast, his body cannot bear it.

It’s evident that even against Poison Robe in earlier battles, or perhaps in the current tug-of-war chase with Poison Robe, his Six-colored Ring always forms instantly, then disperses instantly.

Even though it’s only for a moment, the pain from forcibly twisting in that instant, is extremely unbearable.

However, he can bear enough of this pain, so without showing it between his brows, Poison Robe didn’t notice.

Now, the only way to stabilize the internal Primordial Power twist is one.

It is by using the Ice Phoenix Sword Soul to forcibly suppress the Primordial Power reincarnation.

Make the twist of Primordial Power exceptionally slow, making the body able to endure.

But, last time during training in the cave, this method, took him a full day to completely form the reincarnation force of internal Primordial Power.

But, in a life and death battle, how can you have a day to prepare?

What he can do, is continuously hone, making the body adapt and accept the twist caused by the reincarnation force.

He originally thought to hone slowly in future trials and combats.

Yet just out of that cave, he encountered a group from the Heavenly Hidden Academy, ultimately meeting this Poison Robe.

Now, he can only keep delaying time; and the internal Primordial Power, with the fastest bearable speed, to complete the reincarnation force as soon as possible.

He bears it forcibly, uses the Ice Phoenix Sword Soul to suppress, and speeds up the flow of Primordial Power, at most half a day, enough to complete.

Time gradually passed.

The pursuit between the two never changed.

After several hours, Xiao Yi introspected for a moment.

The flow of internal Primordial Power was no longer slow; the reincarnation force mostly complete.

Xiao Yi smiled with satisfaction.

Again several hours passed.

At this time, half a day passed.

Xiao Yi introspected again, joy in his eyes, ”The flow of Primordial Power reincarnation is complete.”
