Chapter 129 - Emperor Realm Soul Possession
Chapter 129: Emperor Realm Soul Possession
An ancient Emperor realm expert’s soul had been revived?
Was it the remnant soul of an expert from the Bai Sheng Mountain sect or an intruder?
Chu Xuan took out the Heaven-spying Mirror and cast his gaze over the situation at Bai Sheng Mountain.
He was not worried about Ding Yue.
Did it matter if an Emperor realm expert’s soul was revived?
It was just a remnant soul. Moreover, after such a long time, it was undoubtedly already weak.
It might be able to deal with an ordinary truth realm or even a half-step emperor realm expert, but it would not be able to deal with Ding Yue.
This was even before one considered the divine soul secret technique that Ding Yue cultivated. The divine sword in his body was sufficient to kill any remnant souls of that level.
An intense battle had broken out in Bai Sheng Mountain’s ruin.
It was rare for half-step emperor realm experts to join hands.
A slightly illusory figure floated in the air above the ruin.
Each strike he made was extremely powerful.
There were already several truth realm experts’ corpses on the battlefield.
......
“Blood Soul Devouring!”
The Evil King roared and made a grabbing motion with his hand. Blood gushed out from the ground, and he seemed to be bathed in the blood mist.
The rolling bloody mist turned into chains which swept toward the remnant soul.
“Tie him down so that I have time to refine his soul!”
The Nine Swords Mountain elder, Liu Pingfeng, the red-bearded elder, and the beautiful woman from the Floating Flower pavilion all had dark expressions.
They attacked continuously, intentionally or not, so that the Evil King’s bloody mist chains could not completely lock onto the remnant soul.
This was a remnant soul, so even though it belonged to an Emperor realm expert, it was already weak.
However, if the Evil King refined it, his cultivation would definitely advance beyond the half-step emperor realm, and become infinitely closer to the Emperor realm.
His strength would then surpass theirs.
Neither Liu Pingfeng nor the other three wanted to see the Evil King surpass them.
“I, the Evil King, have always been righteous. You bunch of despicable people actually didn’t work together to deal with this fellow. Instead, you were constantly on guard against me. What despicable people! Bah!” The Evil King cursed.
‘Go to hell!’
‘You are the most evil and brutal person here. How could you even call yourself righteous?’
Liu Pingfeng and the others cursed in their hearts.
Further away from the battlefield, Ding Yue stood motionless with his sword in hand. He did not make a move, but was instead vigilant of his surroundings.
Han Yingmeng was not far away from him.
The others were all terrified. There was actually an ancient Emperor realm expert’s soul that had been awakened. At this moment, they did not dare to rashly continue their exploration of the core of the ancient ruin.
“Die!”
The Emperor-realm remnant soul let out a furious roar. Light blossomed as it blasted out a ferocious attack that instantly enveloped the Evil king.
“Not good!”
The Evil King’s expression changed.
The remnant soul had sacrificed part of its soul to use this soul attack.
Soul attacks were always difficult to defend against, so the Evil King did not dare to act carelessly. He raised his hand and grabbed a corpse of a truth realm expert that was lying on the ground.
It instantly shattered and turned into blood mist.
Bang!
The blood mist roiled as if it was boiling. It transformed into a rolling river of blood in front of him.
The Evil King retreated quickly.
Chi chi!
The soul attack hit the river of blood, emitting sizzling sounds. It was almost as if a piece of red-hot iron had fallen into the water.
The boiling blood mist evaporated at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In the blink of an eye, the soul attack had broken through the blood mist defense that the Evil King had erected.
However, thanks to the boiling blood mist, its attack power was greatly weakened. It could no longer threaten the Evil King.
“Die!”
The Emperor-realm remnant soul seemed to be ready to fight to the death.
The remnant soul released a dazzling light which shattered in the blink of an eye. It transformed into four rays of light that attacked Liu Pingfeng and the other three.
“Not good!”
Those four people’s expressions changed drastically and they retreated frantically.
The Nine Swords Mountain elder’s sword was floating in front of him. He kept condensing his sword intent in an attempt to block the remnant soul’s attack.
This was the remnant soul of an Emperor realm expert. Perhaps it even belonged to an existence above the Emperor realm.
Even though its cultivation level had fallen and its soul was weakened, it was not something that half-step emperor realm cultivators like themselves could compare to.
Because of this, the remnant soul could fight against the five of them by itself.
The Evil King’s methods were indeed impressive. He used the flesh and blood of truth realm experts to activate his evil techniques to block the remnant soul’s attacks.
Liu Pingfeng and the other three were slightly weaker.
The red-bearded elder had already swallowed a pill to reduce the impact of the soul attack.
Liu Pingfeng unfurled his fan and turned it into a shield. Spiritual power surged through it, and the power of his pseudo domain was pushed to its limit.
The beautiful woman from the Floating Flower Pavilion was surrounded by flowers. Each flower was like red-hot iron, emitting a scorching aura.
At this moment, the five half-step emperor realm cultivators had used all their technique.
The Evil King, who was the first to be attacked, was the most relaxed.
He was defending while retreating, so the encirclement around the remnant soul was naturally broken.
Four soul attacks instantly surged out. The soul power that was originally attacking the four others suddenly converged, and the remnant soul condensed again.
Liu Pingfeng and the other three’s expressions changed. They had been fooled. The other party had used a secret technique to split its soul, deceiving them into thinking that it had launched a desperate attack.
After forcing them to retreat, the remnant soul was condensed again.
If the remnant soul escaped the ancient ruin, it would not be a good thing for them.
There was no Emperor realm cultivator in the Southern Region, barring that useless one from the Black Moon Tower who did not interfere in the affairs of the Southern Region.
If the Emperor realm expert’s soul left the ancient ruin, and occupied the body of an expert or searched for precious medicines to recover its soul, it would mean that there would be an Emperor realm expert in the Southern Region.
They were all used to power by now. How could they tolerate the existence of an expert who was more powerful than them?
Moreover, before the ordained time, the experts behind each of their factions would not come to the Southern Region, so they could continue to be big shots in the Southern Region for now.
However, this would all change if the remnant soul escaped. Its existence would be like a knife was hanging above their heads. They would no longer be able to act freely without fearing repercussions.
After the remnant soul condensed again, it turned into a streak of light. It did not escape, but directly rushed toward Ding Yue.
“Your body belongs to me!”
It was actually trying to occupy Ding Yue’s body.
Liu Pingfeng and the others’ expressions changed greatly. Once the other party occupied Ding Yue’s body, he might recover his Emperor realm strength instantly.
Everyone present was going to die!
However, it was too late to stop him.
Ding Yue looked coldly at the remnant soul that was charging at him. He had no intention of dodging the attack at all.
How could a weak remnant soul even dream of occupying his body?
“Run!”
Han Yingmeng said anxiously.
Her body moved and she rushed over. With a wave of her hand, a hundred flowers fell and enveloped Ding Yue directly. She intended to help Ding Yue block the remnant soul.
“Woman, don’t meddle!”
Ding Yue glanced at Han Yingmeng and said unhappily.
Boom!
The remnant soul rushed into Ding Yue’s body.
“It’s over!”
Han Yingmeng’s face was filled with despair.
At this moment, there were many huge sword mountains around Ding Yue’s spiritual will. They were emitting intense sword intent.
These sword mountains protected his spiritual will in the center.
As soon as the remnant soul rushed in, it was surrounded by layers of sword mountains. Each sword mountain was extremely sturdy.
They also emitted a strong sword intent.
“How is this possible?!”
The remnant soul was shocked. Why was the opponent’s mind and spiritual will so strange?
From its perspective, no matter how weak its soul was, it was easy for it to devour an expert’s mind and spiritual will.
This man had a powerful body and was not a half-step emperor realm cultivator. He had not condensed a divine soul, so it was not supposed to be difficult for it to occupy the body.
However, it was surrounded by layers of sword mountains as soon as it entered. The strong sword intent almost crushed its soul.
