Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 2087: Chapter 2087: Leaving the Forbidden Spirit Sacred Mountain

All around, the cold white fire surged and spread.

At the center, the figure in black robes was covered with a thin layer of flames, standing proudly.

Underfoot was a young man also clad in black robes.

However, the handsome yet eerie face of the young man had already turned black.

The sinister laughter that once echoed could no longer be heard.

It was now a cold corpse.

As for the proud figure in black robes, his eyes remained as indifferent as always, without a ripple of emotion.

The figure in the black robe was none other than Xiao Yi.

He glanced around; the entire Forbidden Spirit Sacred Mountain was engulfed by the Ten Realms Annihilation Fire.

The nearly ten thousand evil cultivators who had originally surrounded the area had already perished completely, none escaped.

”Collect.” Xiao Yi waved his large hand, seizing all the leftover Universe Rings.

Bang...

The Taiyin and Taiyang Eyes formed with a roar.

Martial Soul Power from the air swirled invisibly, continuously being absorbed into Xiao Yi’s body.

Of course, Xiao Yi’s gaze was mainly focused on the Little Evil Lord.

The Devouring Sky Emperor Whale, once a legendary Heaven and Earth Demon Clan Emperor, possessed an incredibly vast and terrifying Martial Soul Power.

Xiao Yi couldn’t imagine how the Little Evil Lord could awaken such a Martial Soul.

When martial artists awaken their Martial Soul during childhood, besides talent being a crucial factor, other indispensable elements are also necessary.

The Devouring Sky Emperor Whale, which is scarcely recorded even in the ancient scrolls of the Eight Palaces, seems almost impossible to awaken as a Martial Soul.

Of course, Xiao Yi also understood why those evil cultivator elders previously said that the Little Evil Lord would one day rule over this continent.

It’s no wonder why the Third Elder of the Evil Lord Mansion, a seasoned legendary expert, would unhesitatingly self-destruct to protect the Little Evil Lord’s life.

If the Little Evil Lord continued to grow safely, he would truly become a formidable expert.

In terms of cultivation, among the younger generation today, no one could compare to him.

To have achieved the Legendary Twenty Thousand Dao cultivation at such a young age is truly a terrifying concept.

Considering the likes of Dongfang Zhi, Dongfang Zi, Murong Lingyun, and others whom he encountered, they were all outstanding figures among the young generation of the hidden forces.

Yet, they only had cultivation below the Supreme 9998 Dao.

Even these hidden prodigies could not guarantee they would reach the Legendary status.

Even Xiao Yi, with his talent, couldn’t be absolutely certain of when he would step into the Legendary realm.

Much less surpass the initial Legendary cultivation with Twenty Thousand Dao.

In terms of cultivation among the younger generation of the Central Region, the Little Evil Lord was definitely the strongest.

Even the once assessed most outstanding prodigy, Beiyin Wudi, couldn’t reach this level.

However, this is also the terrifying aspect of evil cultivators.

The profession of evil cultivators possesses a much faster cultivation speed than normal martial artists and more easily surmounted bottlenecks.

This alone is enough to drive countless martial artists crazy.

It’s also one of the reasons why so many martial artists succumb to becoming evil cultivators.

Of course, the cost is also great.

Losing oneself, having no control over one’s heart, such rapidly gained cultivation speed is not worth it.

”Hah.” At this moment, the invisible vortex in the air disappeared.

All the surrounding Martial Soul Power had been completely absorbed.

”Hmm?” Xiao Yi introspected and frowned slightly.

The two great Martial Souls within him showed no significant change despite the vast Martial Soul Power.

Over the years, whether through training or battles, Xiao Yi had never stopped absorbing Martial Soul Power.

After all, Martial Soul Power is one of the forces that can repair the cracks in the Ice Phoenix Sword.

With each absorption of Martial Soul Power, part of it went to the Ice Phoenix Sword, and the other part to the Fire Control Beast.

However, the two great Martial Souls within him never changed significantly.

The Ice Phoenix Sword’s crack, visibly, had indeed become smaller but always remained, with no signs of complete repair.

The Fire Control Beast, however, showed greater changes.

Ever since the second awakening in the Ancient Emperor’s Tomb, after the Fire Control Beast grew horns, the external Martial Soul Power absorbed resulted in increasingly diminished changes.

Especially after being rigorously refined and awakening the Thunder Control Power within the Soul Calamity Secret Realm, this sensation became more apparent.

Previously, the power of a hundred or a thousand Martial Souls would cause some change in the Fire Control Beast.

Now, even though the vast Martial Soul Power of nearly ten thousand evil cultivators, including the Devouring Sky Emperor Whale, only slightly deepened its black color.

Rustle...

The two great Martial Souls gathered and emerged.

Xiao Yi glanced at the Ice Phoenix Sword and nodded.

Next, he turned his gaze to the Fire Control Beast in his palm, looking slightly puzzled.

Xiao Yi recalled the scene of the Devouring Sky Emperor Whale being crushed by the sword and beast, and his heart was filled with surprise.

”The Ice Phoenix Sword is one thing, but since when have you become so strong?”

Xiao Yi looked at the Fire Control Beast and chuckled.

Though Xiao Yi was puzzled, he did not dwell on it.

The strengthening of the Fire Control Beast was a good thing.

However, after growing horns, Xiao Yi became increasingly unsure if this was truly the Fire Control Beast.

He, as a Demon Hunter, had never encountered such a horned demon beast.

Earlier, even from Senior Luoo and the two Masters of the Main Hall’s brief words, it was evident that none of them recognized this demon beast.

”Forget it.” Xiao Yi shook his head and retracted the two great Martial Souls.

Xiao Yi’s gaze again turned to the cold corpse of the Little Evil Lord on the ground.

The Little Evil Lord’s cultivation was only Twenty Thousand Dao, and the Martial Soul Illusion he could conjure was limited to a hundred miles.

Clearly, he could not completely control this Martial Soul.

But its power was already this terrifying.

Once his cultivation reached a sufficient level, enabling the true manifestation of the Devouring Sky Emperor Whale, it would swallow the sky and earth, unstoppable.

Moreover, for evil cultivators, cultivation growth was inherently easier.

This was the truly horrifying aspect of the Little Evil Lord, though he had now fallen.

Martial artists have a level of control over their own Martial Souls.

The stronger the Martial Soul, the deeper cultivation needed to wield it.

Like the Little Evil Lord and the Devouring Sky Emperor Whale.

Of course, also like Xiao Yi and the Ice Phoenix Sword.

To this day, Xiao Yi had not been able to fully control the Ice Phoenix Sword to unleash its full power. Forcing its use would lead to astonishing consequences.

Xiao Yi didn’t even know when the crack in the sword body would be completely repaired.

Nor when he would truly command the Ice Phoenix Sword.

But obviously, his current cultivation was far from sufficient.

And the black rank of the Fire Control Beast was also not yet intense enough, perhaps there might even be unexpected gains.

”What a pity.” Xiao Yi shook his head.

The Devouring Sky Emperor Whale Soul should have contained more abundant Martial Soul Power.

Previously, it was ravaged, losing nearly ninety percent of its Martial Soul Power to the Ice Phoenix Sword and Fire Control Beast.

The damage to the Devouring Sky Emperor Whale Soul left the Little Evil Lord heavily backlashed, rendering him nearly powerless.

Of course, this also meant that the Martial Soul Power now absorbable was greatly reduced.

”Forget it, not worth forcing.” Xiao Yi shook his head again.

He always had the feeling that even the complete Martial Soul Power of the entire Devouring Sky Emperor Whale would fall short of satiating the bottomless pits of the Ice Phoenix Sword and Fire Control Beast.

The effect might not be significant either.

”Time to leave.” Xiao Yi murmured to himself as his figure flashed, transforming into a black streak of light, flying away through the air.

...

First update.

The second and third updates are expected to be around one thirty, just like last night.
