Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 1950: Chapter 1950: Here, a Reward for You

Swoosh...

The Gang Wind suddenly swirled above the high mountain.

No, to be precise, it swirled around the black-robed figure sitting cross-legged on the ground.

At first, the breeze of the Gang Wind was slow and unnoticeable, but gradually it became fierce, like a tempest.

Looking more closely, the Gang Wind blew in from all directions.

The wind was thick with a sense of desolation, filling the surroundings.

That desolation might weigh heavily on one’s heart or send a chill through one’s soul.

But gradually, this bleakness turned into a portent of extreme danger.

It seemed as if some fierce beasts were slowly awakening from that endless desolation.

The Gang Wind of the Eight Desolates ferociously swept in, then encircled the black-robed figure.

Yet the black-robed figure seemed unaware, still sitting cross-legged with eyes tightly shut.

However, around him, lines of array patterns continuously emerged.

The wind’s momentum was gradually increasing, like a long-contained storm within a mountain canyon about to unleash; once it erupts, it will be unstoppable.

The desolate chill grew ever stronger.

In a few breaths, the wind reached its peak.

The sense of desolation, at that moment, surged with the momentum.

The phrase ”alarm bells ringing” might best describe the current state of the wind.

Roar... Roar... Roar...

The Gang Wind of the Eight Desolates relentlessly assaulted with a sound like eight thunderous roars.

The Gang Wind, all gathered around the black-robed figure.

The desolation, at that moment, transformed into a suppressed rage, appearing alongside the eight roars.

The wind’s force had completely changed.

But just at that moment, the black-robed figure’s eyes snapped open.

In his eyes flashed a hint of urgency and shock.

”This is not good.” The black-robed figure, of course, was Xiao Yi.

The array formation, which was about to be completed, suddenly lost control and could no longer be held.

Roar... Roar... Roar...

The roar of eight dragons echoed endlessly in his ears.

Around him, eight wild roaming dragons rampaged incessantly.

In that instant, heaven and earth changed color.

The entire world seemed swallowed by these rampaging winds.

Xiao Yi’s pupils shifted.

He knew that what surrounded him was not really Gang Wind.

But rather, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, dense to the extreme, appeared like Gang Wind.

Those eight wild roaming dragons were the power of the Eight Desolates condensed.

For that moment, Xiao Yi’s mind went blank.

Not far away, the Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master also turned pale, ”This boy...”

Whoosh... With a flash, the Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master quickly darted to Xiao Yi’s side.

That slightly small stature blocked all the rampaging energies around Xiao Yi.

Time seemed to pass in an instant.

When Xiao Yi’s mind returned to normal, the scene around him made him gasp.

Centered around him, the entire mountain had collapsed, not a stone remained.

For a hundred miles around, there was nothing but flatlands.

Everything, under those eight roaming dragons, turned to void.

”So strong, worthy of a legendary formation.” Xiao Yi’s voice was full of shock.

Everything around had returned to calm.

From the drastic change around Xiao Yi to everything turning to void, it seemed long, yet in reality, it was but a few seconds.

Beside him, the Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master stared angrily at Xiao Yi.

”You reckless young man, the Eight Desolate Soaring Dragon Formation is far beyond your current control, and you dared to set it up?”

Hearing this, Xiao Yi smiled, just about to say something, when a mouthful of hot blood spewed out.

”Are you okay?” The Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master’s expression tightened.

Xiao Yi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shook his head, eyes full of joy, ”As expected of one of the greatest augmentation formations of the Heavenly Mechanism Hall’s ancient times, truly impressive.”

The Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master’s eyes widened, ”You even know how strong this formation is? And yet you dared act recklessly?”

”Just beginning to understand this formation, you dared to set it up, courting your disaster, do you regret it now?”

Xiao Yi chuckled, ”It’s a pity, just now I only used the power of Spirit Stones to form the array, without connecting my poison power.”

”Otherwise, this array might not have lost control.”

”You’re crazy.” The Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master’s face darkened, ”You haven’t even truly mastered this formation, and you dare to recklessly use poison power as the source of the array’s strength?”

”Poison power is far more violent and uncontrollable than Primordial Power.”

”Had I not reacted quickly, you might have been consumed by your own array by now, potentially seriously injured or even dead.”

The Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master’s face was full of coldness.

In his eyes, at that moment, Xiao Yi seemed like a madman.

Yes, a madman, a reckless madman who disregarded his life.

But just as this thought occupied his mind, the Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master’s heart trembled again.

Rather than calling him a madman,

it’s better to say that this is someone incredibly confident in himself, with the capital to be confident, and a genius, a super genius, in the field of array formation who is immensely stubborn.

At this moment, Xiao Yi paid no attention to the expression of the Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master, instead quietly pondering.

In this past month, under the guidance of the Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master, his knowledge of array formations was worlds apart from before.

Or to put it more simply, the gains in this month were far greater than he had imagined.

Supreme formations, he mastered at least hundreds.

Legendary formations, he mastered dozens.

Some of them were renowned legendary formations even in ancient times.

This Eight Desolate Soaring Dragon Formation was one of them.

It wasn’t a killing formation, but an augmentation formation.

The formation setter would be empowered by the Eight Desolate Wandering Dragons, their strength skyrockets by several multiples.

In the moment before the formation went out of control, Xiao Yi clearly felt the amplification of power on him, to an astonishing degree.

In that instant, he even felt he could slay mid-stage Legend-level experts relying solely on his strength without using Soul Power.

However, this formation is indeed difficult.

Xiao Yi was only beginning to understand its wonders, truly mastering and skillfully using it might take some more time.

When he truly reaches the level of One Thought Formation, a few months later at the Upper Sacred Moon Sect, he would have a better grasp.

”Thank you, Master of the Main Hall.”

Xiao Yi slowly stood up and bowed deeply.

The Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master, as expected, is the first legendary Array Master of the Central Region.

Xiao Yi knew that the huge gains in this month, apart from his indeed remarkable talent, were also due to the meticulous guidance of such a high-caliber person as the Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master.

Especially the large pile of Spiritual Vein Spiritual Stones.

Speaking of it, this was his first time so ’extravagantly’ using the best cultivation items for training.

The effect of High Grade Spirit Stones was indeed excellent.

Using them for array inscription, enlightenment, practice, etc., allowed the Martial Artist to experience better.

If it were replaced with other things or simply arranging arrays on the ground, the effects would be much less.

The experiences for the Martial Artist himself would also be considerably inferior.

With top-tier cultivation items, Xiao Yi’s own talent, coupled with the meticulous guidance of the first Array Master, the Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master, led to Xiao Yi’s substantial gains in this month.

The Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master stood with hands behind his back, unhesitatingly accepting this courtesy.

The Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master, looking at Xiao Yi, showed even more satisfaction on his face, frequently nodding.

”Mm, not bad, not bad.”

”This old man said, give you a month to see how much skill you can learn.”

”And now it seems, this old man is quite satisfied.”

While speaking, the Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master took out a token from his hand, assuming the demeanor of an expert, and said, ”Here, this is a reward from this old man for you, take it.”

Xiao Yi accepted, glanced at it, and his pupils suddenly contracted, ”Vice Hall Token?”

”Yes.” The Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master nodded, ”Although this token is not very useful, holding it allows you to be directly promoted to the title of Vice Hall Master.”

”Consider it as a reward from this old man.”

The Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master’s eyes gleamed, speaking with a smile full of joy.

”Not very useful?” Xiao Yi’s face, beneath the mask, held a strange expression.
