Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 1793: Chapter 1793: Ancient Spiritual Sense

This is inside the Ancient Emperor’s Mansion.

Any abnormal movement is absolutely not ordinary.

Thus Xiao Yi didn’t dare be the slightest bit careless, much less relax or hold back in the slightest.

In an instant a pair of Beast Hands and one Beast Feet condensed, and six fierce flames erupted.

Previously, he had fallen into the Demon Dao, his mind unable to pull free, so the Beast Hands and Beast Feet had automatically dissipated.

Of course, in his clear-headed state, to condense them in an instant was not difficult.

His Fire Control power erupted to the extreme in a flash.

Bang...

A loud explosive sound.

The onrushing scorching Flame Aura was immediately blocked by the six fierce flames.

The two flame powers cancelled each other out.

”Hm? You’ve got some skill.”

From the air, an illusory old voice slowly came out.

”So strong.” Xiao Yi was first startled.

With his Fire Control fully unleashed, six fierce flames bursting forth, he had only barely managed to cancel out that single wisp of flame.

After that, his heart suddenly trembled.

Because, within this Cave Mansion that had been empty and silent for tens of millions of years, there actually echoed this illusory and eerie old voice?

This feeling was enough to make one’s hair stand on end in an instant.

Even someone as bold as Xiao Yi felt his scalp tingle instantly.

Swoosh...

In the air, a wisp of illusory Spiritual Sense suddenly appeared.

Xiao Yi’s pupils shrank, his mind instantly taut to the extreme.

”The Ancient Emperor?”

One must know, just the main formation alone had gone unbroken by anyone for countless ages.

Naturally, the very end of the Cave Mansion beyond the main formation was a place no one had ever entered.

And here, this Spiritual Sense before him—what Xiao Yi could think of was only the Ancient Emperor himself.

”The Ancient Emperor?” The Spiritual Sense before him let out a sneer.

The appearance of the Spiritual Sense was that of an old man.

His figure was somewhat burly, hair disheveled, a bit slovenly.

But within that slovenliness there was clearly a tyrannical and arrogant air.

”No, I’m not.” The old man sneered.

”I don’t even know how many years this old man has been waiting here.”

”Tens of millions of years, countless times the Cave Mansion emerged, countless batches of Heavenly Talents and monster geniuses entered.”

”This old man has looked forward to it countless times as well.”

”But those idiots, not a single one could break the main formation, let alone come to the end of this Cave Mansion.”

”Today, this old man has finally waited long enough, hahaha, hahahaha.”

The old man laughed wildly.

On his aged face there was loneliness; the laughing face seemed somewhat twisted, even wantonly crazed.

”Spiritual Sense?” Xiao Yi furrowed his brows, and also calmed his mind.

No matter what was in front of him, panicking would be useless.

Countless brushes with death had long since given Xiao Yi an extremely strong mental fortitude.

At the same time, since this Spiritual Sense in front of him was not the Ancient Emperor himself, Xiao Yi actually let out a breath of relief.

If it really were the Ancient Emperor, a figure of that level—after death, his Spiritual Sense alone would be enough to shake heaven and earth.

Furthermore, if it truly were the Ancient Emperor’s Spiritual Sense, with the Ancient Emperor’s methods, why would he need to trap himself here?

He could simply leave the Cave Mansion directly, find a suitable body for Body Seizing outside—who under heaven could stop him?

”Who are you?” Xiao Yi frowned and asked.

At this point, he did relax, and there was no more fear on his face.

”Oh?” The old man was slightly stunned to see Xiao Yi react this way.

”Impressive, worthy of being the monster who could break the main formation.”

”Within the Ancient Emperor’s Mansion, the depths are unfathomable; the end of this Cave Mansion is full of weirdness and peril.”

”Yet upon seeing this old man’s Spiritual Sense, you were able to steady yourself in an instant, no longer horrified.”

”You truly have ability.”

The old man carefully sized Xiao Yi up.

Xiao Yi likewise stared coldly at the old man. ”If I’m not mistaken, you want to seize my body, right?”

”Isn’t that nonsense?” The old man let out a cold laugh.

”For you to break the main formation, you’re the number one monster genius of this age.”

”No, more accurately, you’re the strongest monster genius since the Ancient era till now.”

”Your body couldn’t be more suitable for Body Seizing.”

Xiao Yi gave a cold smile. ”Before you seize me, why not first tell me who you are?”

”Who am I?” The old man suddenly froze.

”I...” A trace of indescribable complexity flashed across the old man’s face.

”Heh.” After a long moment, that inexplicable complexity all dissipated, replaced by a faint smile.

”You’re about to be seized by me, what’s the point of asking more?”

Xiao Yi shrugged. ”If I’m seized, my Spiritual Sense will scatter completely, leaving only the shell of my body.”

”In other words, I will die.”

”A man about to die wants to die understanding—can’t I?”

”You can.” The old man nodded. ”But...”

The old man grinned hideously. ”But this old man knows that what you’re doing now means you’re not afraid of me at all.”

”You’re quite confident as well, confident you won’t die here, won’t be seized by this old man.”

”Right now you’re just trying to pry some information out of this old man.”

”Of course, what this old man doesn’t understand is where your confidence comes from.”

The old man grinned viciously and sneered, appearing very eerie.

”What?” Xiao Yi gave a cold laugh. ”Don’t tell me you’re scared of me now? You don’t even dare say it?”

”Scared?” The old man’s face instantly went cold. ”Brat, this old man has merely not spoken to anyone for countless years, so I’m saying a few more words to you, letting you live a bit longer, that’s all.”

”But that doesn’t mean you’re qualified to offend this old man.”

As the words fell, the old man went mad in an instant, charging straight at Xiao Yi.

This wisp of Spiritual Sense was like a terrifying ghost baring fangs and brandishing claws, striking straight at Xiao Yi’s mind.

Xiao Yi was already prepared; his eyes changed in a flash.

His left eye, pitch-black as ink, cold as an abyss.

His right eye, blazing like fire, reflecting the Sun Star.

They were precisely the Taiyin and Taiyang Eyes.

Yes, Xiao Yi had only planned to coax some words out of him, to learn what lay at the end of this Cave Mansion.

But to say he feared this wisp of Spiritual Sense? Not to that extent.

His greatest confidence lay in his own Taiyin and Taiyang Eyes.

His Taiyin and Taiyang Eyes were simply the nemesis of Spiritual Sense.

Although he didn’t know why the Taiyin and Taiyang Eyes had such an effect.

But his past experiences had already proven this effect.

Whether it was when he dealt with the Ice Venerable’s Spiritual Consciousness back then, or the countless Spiritual Senses he encountered in the Fengxu Secret Realm, all had been ground to nothing under the Taiyin and Taiyang Eyes.

No matter how powerful one had been in life, after death, once turned into Spiritual Sense, before the Taiyin and Taiyang Eyes, they were simply not worth mentioning.

Xiao Yi didn’t need to know why.

He only needed to know that he could kill the enemy, that he could deal with Spiritual Sense.

Sure enough, the instant the Taiyin and Taiyang Eyes condensed, a vortex appeared out of thin air in the air.

The old man’s Spiritual Sense was instantly imprisoned within the vortex, unable to move.

Inside the vortex, everything twisted, and the old man’s Spiritual Sense was forcibly twisted as well.

It wouldn’t be long before the old man’s Spiritual Sense was completely shredded.

”Damn it, what the hell is this thing?” The old man’s Spiritual Sense changed drastically, even turning incredulous.

Xiao Yi said nothing, only sneered coldly.

”Bastard, this old man has waited countless years, how could I fail at the final step?” The old man looked almost deranged.

Boom...

Suddenly, a wave of flames surged in, sky-covering.

Xiao Yi was shocked. Before he could react, he was blasted away heavily by the flames.

”Pff.” Xiao Yi spat out a mouthful of bloody spit; his expression changed sharply. ”How is that possible?”

On the other side, the old man had already torn free from the vortex. A brief flash of panic passed across his face.

That was extreme terror.

The fear of almost failing after waiting countless years.

But now, he had regained his previous ferocious grin.

”What, boy, are you very surprised?” The old man sneered coldly.

”Impossible.” Xiao Yi stared at the old man in disbelief.

Just now, he had clearly sensed that the flames blasting toward him were formed from real Primordial Power.

Yes, that was real Primordial Power, not Soul Power or Spiritual Power.

How could a mere wisp of Spiritual Sense still possess Primordial Power?

Primordial Power was a strength only Martial Artists could control.

Boom... Boom... Boom...

The overwhelming flames erupted again.

Just the aura the flames emitted was enough to make Xiao Yi’s heart tremble with fear.

This aura was definitely far above Legend.

Just that pressure alone was enough to render him unable to move.

It wasn’t hard to imagine that in life, the old man must have been a powerhouse whose Cultivation was terrifying to the extreme.

And if the old man’s Spiritual Sense could use Primordial Power, then what difference was there between him and when he was alive?

A powerhouse far above Legend—how could Xiao Yi possibly resist?

The old man’s floating figure had already arrived in front of Xiao Yi.

That ferocious face was almost pressed right against Xiao Yi.

And Xiao Yi, under the oppression of the flames, couldn’t move at all.

”Mm, not bad, not bad.” The old man nodded in satisfaction.

A probing force suddenly flashed across Xiao Yi’s body.

In that instant, Xiao Yi felt as though his entire body was laid bare under the old man’s scrutiny.

”Heh, a Fire Control Warrior, and you even carry six types of powerful flames of this world. Truly an excellent Body Seizing target.”

At those words, Xiao Yi’s heart went cold.

”And you have Twin Martial Souls? Hiss, remarkable, remarkable.” The old man stared at Xiao Yi as if looking at the most wonderful thing in the world.

That gaze was as if he wanted to devour Xiao Yi alive.

”Oh? Quite a few treasures on you as well.”

”Is this the legendary Heaven and Earth Treasures, the Eight Dragons Burning Fire Furnace?”

”Oh, if I’m not mistaken, this is the God Slaying Sword.”

”Hm? Tokens? Tokens of the Asura Hall Main Hall and Wind Shattering Hall Main Hall?” The old man’s brows suddenly furrowed.

The next second, his brows relaxed. ”What a pity.”

”And also the tokens of the Demon Hunting Hall and Medicine Venerate Hall Main Halls.”

”Tsk tsk, truly impressive. You’re actually the successor of each Ancient Hall.”

”Hm?” In just the next second, the old man’s tone turned shocked again, and then his expression became strange.

”This is the token of the Flame Hall Main Hall? You, you, you... you’re the next Master of the Flame Hall Main Hall?”

The old man stared straight at Xiao Yi.

His face suddenly turned complicated.

Then came bleakness, and a helpless shake of the head.

”Forget it.”

A sigh, like endless years of helpless melancholy.

The flame power that had been imprisoning Xiao Yi instantly dispersed.
