The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2311: Chapter 2311: Clear Wave Cavern

Did the Youlong Demon Lord die at the hands of Jing Yan?

”How is this possible? Although this is my first time meeting this Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, his Divine Soul aura is enough to prove he is very young. It is unimaginable that he is already in the Immortal Venerable Realm, let alone capable of killing a strong figure like the Youlong Demon Lord?” an overlord said.

”I was present when the Youlong Demon Lord was killed. In fact, this matter has already spread in Iron Bay, and I believe it won’t be long before you all hear about it,” said Bu Yun Dominator with a chuckle.

Hearing Bu Yun Dominator say this, others, however hard it was to believe, had no choice but to believe it.

”It’s too terrifying!”

”I understand now. No wonder even Kong You Immortal Venerable is so courteous to him. With just a word, he allowed fellow Daoist Bu Yun’s descendant to succeed in apprenticeship.”

”Yes, to be honest, in all my time knowing Kong You Immortal Venerable, I have never seen him be so agreeable.”

”Do you think... this Jing Yan has come to the Soul Leaving Mountain with some purpose? It seems the Wanmo Mountain Great Demon Lord brought him to the Soul Leaving Mountain. He wasn’t seeking to become Kong You Immortal Venerable’s disciple, was he?”

”That has nothing to do with us.”

”Let’s disperse for now!”

At the Soul Testing Stone Square, the overlord-level figures subsequently left this place. Of course, they did not yet leave the Soul Leaving Mountain; instead, they returned to the residence of Kong You Immortal Venerable, waiting to see him.

Up to this point, of those seeking an audience with Kong You Immortal Venerable, Bu Yun Dominator was the most at ease, because his descendant, Bu Zirong, had just officially become a disciple of Kong You Immortal Venerable. It could be said that he could now return to Iron Bay. However, Bu Yun Dominator didn’t plan to leave yet, intending to find an opportunity to properly thank Jing Yan.

Shao Jie Dominator also did not leave, knowing that Kong You Immortal Venerable might already be dissatisfied with him. Precisely because of this, he needed to hurriedly clear up misunderstandings and negative impacts. The longer such things are delayed, the more troublesome they become.

At the residence of Kong You Immortal Venerable, inside the room.

Jing Yan, the Great Demon Lord, and Kong You Immortal Venerable sat down for a conversation.

”Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, just now you passed the Soul Validation Stone test, awakening five strands of Divine Soul Light. This level of Soul Cultivation Talent is something I have never seen in the entire Nightmare City region. The future achievements of Fellow Daoist Jing Yan in soul cultivation are unimaginable,” Kong You Immortal Venerable said with emotion.

He himself could only awaken four strands of Divine Soul Light, one tier below Jing Yan.

This path of soul cultivation is demanding. Even among the Nightmare Clan people, only about one in a hundred has the talent for soul cultivation.

And to spark one strand of Divine Soul Light on the Soul Validation Stone is even more difficult.

To put it more vividly, if the Divine Soul purity score tested by the Soul Validation Stone is out of a hundred, then to maintain one strand of Divine Soul Light on the stone, a purity close to ninety is required. People like Weng Guang and others did not have their Divine Soul purity at ninety.

As for Jing Yan’s Divine Soul purity, it is at least ninety-nine, possibly infinitely close to the perfect score of one hundred.

Ninety versus ninety-nine may seem close, but divine soul purity is incredibly mystical; even the slightest difference can evolve into a huge disparity on the path of soul cultivation in the future.

For example, Mu Hai of the Bai Family in Bai City, Iron Bay, is also a soul cultivator in the Immortal Venerable Realm, but he cannot compare to Kong You Immortal Venerable. Mu Hai’s Divine Soul purity is also probably over ninety.

”Fellow Daoist Kong You is too kind,” Jing Yan responded with a smile.

”Fellow Daoist Jing Yan doesn’t need to be modest; I have some discernment. It’s truly unimaginable, though Jing Yan is not one of our Nightmare Clan, his Divine Soul purity is so astonishing,” Kong You Immortal Venerable praised repeatedly.

”Fellow Daoist Kong You, we were just discussing high-level soul techniques before,” the Great Demon Lord interjected.

Kong You Immortal Venerable squinted slightly, saying, ”Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, if you want high-level soul techniques, I won’t beat around the bush. I have here a high-level soul technique manual called Clear Wave Cavern, which should satisfy Fellow Daoist Jing Yan.”

As he spoke, Kong You Immortal Venerable took out a manual, continuing, ”This Clear Wave Cavern, I only obtained recently. Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, you are in luck, arriving at just the right time. Hmm, take a look at this manual first.”

Jing Yan took the Clear Wave Cavern manual.

Infusing it with Divine Thought, Jing Yan viewed part of the information on the high-level soul technique Clear Wave Cavern. Of course, he was not cultivating it yet, merely checking to see if the manual was suitable for him.

Moments later, Jing Yan retracted his Divine Thought, a smile appearing on his face.

This Clear Wave Cavern manual is excellent. Although Jing Yan has not begun cultivation and only has a superficial understanding of Clear Wave Cavern, he can confirm that Clear Wave Cavern is a high-level soul technique very suited to him.

”Fellow Daoist Kong You, how much Black Crystal Stone do I need to pay to purchase this Clear Wave Cavern?” Jing Yan asked directly.

Having obtained the high-level soul technique manual, Jing Yan had no intention of returning it.

”If others wanted to buy high-level soul techniques from me, I wouldn’t sell them no matter how much Black Crystal Stone they offered. But the Great Demon Lord is my friend, and Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, though this is our first meeting, it feels like meeting an old friend. Let’s agree on eight hundred billion Black Crystal Stone for this manual,” Kong You Immortal Venerable said thoughtfully.

Originally, even the Great Demon Lord would need to pay over one trillion Black Crystal Stone to purchase this Clear Wave Cavern manual. But knowing Jing Yan’s soul cultivation talent, along with the strength Jing Yan displayed, Kong You Immortal Venerable wanted to befriend him.

Honestly, a high-level soul technique manual for eight hundred billion Black Crystal Stone is very affordable. If it were in the Mixed Element Immortal Domain, such a high-level soul technique manual could be considered priceless.

Though cultivators from the Mixed Element Immortal Domain often come to the Nightmare City region, even if they return to the Mixed Element Immortal Domain, they are unlikely to leave with high-level soul technique manuals. Those cultivators don’t have the same strength as Jing Yan. They likely wouldn’t even meet someone like Kong You Immortal Venerable, much less obtain high-level soul technique manuals.

”Eight hundred billion Black Crystal Stone... it seems you’ve made a loss, Fellow Daoist Kong You,” Jing Yan said with a light laugh.

”Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, consider it settled then!” Kong You Immortal Venerable waved his hand.

”Fellow Daoist Kong You is straightforward.” Jing Yan wasted no more words and directly transferred eight hundred billion Black Crystal Stone from the Qiankun World into a storage magical treasure, handing it to Kong You Immortal Venerable.

Kong You Immortal Venerable accepted the storage magical treasure, swept it with his thought, and put it away.

As for Jing Yan, he immediately began cultivating Clear Wave Cavern on the spot. By integrating the contents of this high-level soul technique into his Divine Soul Body, he could cultivate and master Clear Wave Cavern at any time. The process of absorbing Divine Soul Energy was simple and did not take much time.
