Hunting the Heavenly Tomb Soul

Congratulations, Xuan Ge'er!

Xiao Yuan said with a smile.

"Thanks to you, I've finally seen the light of day again!"

Xiao Xuan smiled upon hearing this, his expression quite complex.

He never imagined that one day he would have the opportunity to leave the Heavenly Tomb, or even be resurrected!

And all of this is because of the young man in white in front of us.

"Xuan Ge'er, do you have any way to identify the Soul Clan members? When I came to the Ancient Clan this time, I sensed something was off. I suspect that someone in the Ancient Clan may have had their identity stolen by a member of the Soul Clan."

Xiao Yuan thought for a moment, then suddenly said.

"Oh? You can sense that?"

Xiao Xuan was somewhat surprised to hear this. He knew that if someone was secretly spying on Xiao Yuan, it would be a great risk and would attract Gu Yuan's attention. If the Soul Clan really had such a plan, it must be for the sake of the Tou She Ancient God Jade.

In that case, she shouldn't be appearing by Xiao Yuan's side at all, right?

However, it's not impossible, since that person probably wouldn't have imagined that Xiao Yuan, a Dou Zun, could sense his Dou Sheng aura.

Throughout the entire ordeal, Xiao Xuan never doubted whether Xiao Yuan was just spouting nonsense.

"Well, my Qi Mansion Secret Technique cultivates the vital energy of the five internal organs. Therefore, I can clearly sense people with abnormal internal energy. The energy of the Soul Clan is very strange. The stronger they are, the more chaotic their energy feels to me, as if their bloodline is very mixed?"

Xiao Yuan continued to deceive him.

Anyway, no one has ever cultivated the Five Elements Qi Palace method, so these things are just made up by him.

Anyway, as long as Xiao Xuan is told about the Soul Clan planting nails, and then Xiao Xuan communicates with Gu Yuan, the problem will naturally be solved.

As for why not just tell Gu Yuan directly?

Xiao Yuan didn't believe that Gu Yuan would believe him just because he said this.

Different people carry different weight in their words.

If it were Xiao Xuan, there would be no need for further explanation. With just one sentence from him, Gu Yuan could secretly investigate all the elders of the Ancient Clan! With his strength, if he were to investigate secretly, the number of people in the Ancient Clan who could discover any clues would probably be very few. And those level of powerhouses would be difficult for even the Soul Clan to deal with easily. Moreover, those people would inevitably have dealings with Gu Yuan on a daily basis. With Gu Yuan's strength, he would naturally be able to detect their irregularities. Since he didn't, it means that their suspicion is not high! "Hmm, I do have a method, but I think it's better if you carry out the operation."

Xiao Xuan thought for a moment, then said with a smile.

"Huh?"

Xiao Yuan was taken aback. What kind of tricks could he possibly use with his meager skills? Xiao Xuan stood up, looked into the distance at the hazy space, and suddenly smiled, saying, "Hehe, you helped me restore my soul. Coincidentally, with my current strength, I'm more than capable of giving you a great fortune!"

Xiao Yuan was taken aback and looked at Xiao Xuan with some confusion, clearly not understanding what he meant by this "fortune".

"The Heavenly Tomb does not bury ordinary people. The countless remnant souls here were all powerful figures in their lives. As for your own strength, it is difficult for me to give you much help here. However, I can still grant you a great fortune in terms of your soul realm!"

Xiao Xuan smiled, his hands outstretched, as if pressing down on the entire Heavenly Tomb.

"That deformed thing should never have existed in the first place. I wanted to eliminate it a long time ago."

At this point, Xiao Xuan turned his head to look at Xiao Yuan, his soft voice echoing throughout the world. Within the Heavenly Tomb, all the Energy Body suddenly trembled.

"Today, I will use some of my old methods. As for whether your soul realm can transcend the entire Heaven Realm Stage and advance to the Emperor Realm, that depends entirely on your own destiny!"

"Emperor Realm Soul!?"

Xiao Yuan stared blankly at Xiao Xuan, who was smiling, but was so shocked by his words that his mouth went dry. In this world, as long as something is even slightly related to the word "Emperor," it is enough to make it a synonym for power. Whether it is Dou Di or Emperor Grade Pill, these are all considered supreme in everyone's eyes. Similarly, the Emperor Realm Soul is also among them.

Dou Di), Emperor Grade Pill, Emperor Realm Soul.

Of the three emperors, judging from the current situation on the continent, the third one seems more likely. This is not to say that Emperor Realm Soul can be easily attained. According to Xiao Yuan's memory, there are probably only two people on the continent who have reached the Emperor Realm Soul: Gu Yuan and the Hun Tiandi.

As for Xiao Xuan, before he regains his physical body, it will be difficult for his soul realm to fully recover to the Emperor Realm.

Xiao Yuan's soul level is still at the Mid-Stage Heavenly State. This is only because he broke through and established himself again. After recovering to the Early Heaven Realm, he made a further step forward. This level is still quite far from the Emperor Realm Soul. Although Xiao Yuan knows what Xiao Xuan is planning to do, he really has no confidence in breaking through to the Emperor Realm Soul.

Therefore, when Xiao Yuan heard that the great fortune Xiao Xuan spoke of was actually that Emperor Realm Soul, even with his composure, he couldn't help but be somewhat stunned.

"How is this possible?"

After a long moment of stunned silence, Xiao Yuan finally came to his senses, shaking his head and smiling bitterly. With his current level, reaching the Heaven Realm Great Perfection was probably close, but Emperor Realm Soul was truly impossible! "It is indeed extremely difficult, but not entirely impossible," Xiao Xuan smiled strangely, raising his head and gazing intently at the misty void. He slowly said, "What I intend to deal with is not the Energy Body formed from the remnant souls here, but the Heavenly Tomb's Soul!"

"The Heavenly Tomb's Soul?"

Xiao Yuan looked at Xiao Xuan with a puzzled expression.

"That strange being, since the creation of the Heavenly Tomb, is a life form formed by the binding of countless remnant Soul Seal. You can think of it as the guardian of the Heavenly Tomb. Of course, I think it would be more appropriate to describe it as a jailer. It controls this space, and at the same time, it also gives those Energy Body the desire to devour each other."

Xiao Xuan stared intently at the Void Space and said calmly.

"Apart from the Energy Body here, no one can sense its existence. Even Gu Yuan and the others were unaware of it."

Xiao Yuan swallowed hard. This was the first time he had ever seen a space with a soul. This was truly too mysterious. The Dou Di powerhouse who created this space back then had methods that were unpredictable and beyond belief.

"Is that guy very strong?"

Xiao Yuan murmured, "Those who can be buried in the Heavenly Tomb were all powerful figures in life. Since the Heavenly Tomb Soul can absorb their remnants of souls, it must be no pushover either."

"Very strong."

Xiao Xuan smiled, and those two simple words made Xiao Yuan's expression turn serious. For Xiao Xuan to say such a thing, it must be that the Heavenly Tomb Soul is quite terrifying.

"But that was for me in my previous remnant soul state. Now, dealing with him won't be difficult!"

Xiao Xuan smiled domineeringly, and then his figure slowly rose into the air. As his body rose, the misty fog that filled the world quickly dissipated, and a terrifying pressure spread from his body, eventually covering almost the entire Heavenly Tomb.

Under this terrifying pressure, all the Energy Body in the Heavenly Tomb raised their heads, gazing at the direction where Xiao Xuan ascended into the sky. Their originally numb eyes were now filled with excitement.

"Lord Xiao Xuan, are you finally going to make a move against it?"

Deep within the Heavenly Tomb, the Blood Blade Saint also suddenly stood up, his body trembling as he watched the figure slowly rising into the sky. Although this world allowed them to live in a different form, it was not what they had hoped for.

The Heavenly Tomb Soul planted a desire to devour each other in their remnant souls, turning this place into a world of mutual consumption. In order to strengthen themselves, they had to constantly devour other Energy Body. For them, who were once human, this was not much different from cannibalism.

Previously, the Heavenly Tomb was merely a place for the strong to rest in peace. However, since the birth of the Heavenly Tomb Soul, the world here has become distorted. There have been people who tried to challenge the Heavenly Tomb Soul, but they were easily devoured by it. The only one in this space that it can be wary of is Xiao Xuan deep within the Heavenly Tomb.

Long ago, someone pleaded with Xiao Xuan to relieve their suffering, but he ignored them. Over time, the Energy Body here could only gradually become disillusioned. Since they could not resist, they could only silently endure it.

And it was precisely because of this that when they suddenly saw Xiao Xuan's actions, their previously numb hearts couldn't help but burn again. They were tired of this mutual devouring; they were human beings, not beasts!

"I had my own mission back then, so I didn't take action. Now, my strength has recovered considerably, and my mission is about to be completed. Therefore, I will fulfill your petition from back then!"

Xiao Xuan's body hovered tens of thousands of feet in the sky. The fierce gale that was powerful enough to shatter the soul could not get close to his body. He lowered his head and looked down at the earth. His calm voice rang in the ears of all the Energy Body.

"Master Xiao Xuan!"

On the ground, some Energy Body that were still fighting suddenly stiffened, and some fluctuations appeared in their scarlet and numb eyes. Then, they trembled and looked up at the figure standing with his hands behind his back in the sky. In an instant, many figures knelt down on the ground. Xiao Yuan's body also rose into the air. He watched the actions of the Energy Body in the Heavenly Tomb in silence. As an outsider, he did not know what was happening here, so he could not understand their feelings. However, at least he could see one thing: the Heavenly Tomb Soul really had no support from the people.

At the same time, the clansmen from various races who entered the Heavenly Tomb basically arrived at the second level of the Heavenly Tomb, or were standing in front of the entrance to the second level of the Heavenly Tomb.

Feeling Xiao Xuan's terrifying pressure, their Dou Qi seemed to stop circulating for a moment.

Only Xiao Yan felt his blood and soul become burning hot. This pressure not only did not affect his condition, but also made him feel better than ever before!

Could it be that this aura comes from Xiao Xuan, the Ancestor of the Xiao Clan? Xiao Yan seemed to be deep in thought.

It seems Third Brother is making great progress! "Boom!"

At this moment, a deafening roar suddenly erupted from the end of that Void Space, like thunder, sweeping out from the depths of the void and causing many Energy Body entities in the Heavenly Tomb to tremble violently.

Xiao Yuan stared intently at the distant horizon. At this moment, he could faintly sense a soul fluctuation as unfathomable as the ocean suddenly surging forth. This soul fluctuation was extremely terrifying. Xiao Yuan felt as if he were being crushed by Mount Tai just by touching it. However, although the soul fluctuation was terrifyingly strong, it gave him a mottled feeling, probably because it had devoured too many remnants of soul imprints.

In the hazy void, invisible soul fluctuations rapidly condensed. After a moment, the space rippled, and a gigantic face, approximately ten thousand feet in size, suddenly emerged from the void and appeared in the sky. The gigantic face was filled with a cold and eerie expression.

"Is this the Heavenly Tomb Soul?"

Gazing at the giant soul face taking shape in the sky, Xiao Yuan's expression also turned solemn, and he muttered to himself.

"Xiao Xuan, we have always kept to ourselves. Are you trying to break our agreement today?"

The giant face rolled, its pair of emotionless eyes staring at Xiao Xuan, who was suspended in the sky. Its cold voice, like thunder, rumbled and echoed between heaven and earth.

Xiao Xuan looked at the giant face and smiled faintly, saying softly, "Your birth was a mistake in itself. I suppose the Dou Di powerhouse who created the Heavenly Tomb back then did not expect that such a strange creature as you would be born here. Besides, when did I make any agreement with you?"

"Nonsense! I was born according to my master's will, and I am the guardian of this space. You were able to survive again because of me, so you should abide by my rules!"

The giant face rolled over, Heavenly Tomb Soul spoke indifferently.

"They survived because of the Heavenly Tomb, not because of you."

Xiao Xuan shook his head and said.

"I am the Heavenly Tomb, Heavenly Tomb is me!"

The voice of the Heavenly Tomb Soul suddenly became much sharper.

"You are not from the Heavenly Tomb, and your birth was not due to the Heavenly Tomb, but rather the condensation of their remnant souls. In a sense, they created you."

Xiao Xuan smiled slightly, his calm voice causing the giant face to become increasingly distorted, appearing extremely ferocious.

"Since you're so determined to die, then I'll grant your wish!"

The giant face surged, and from its enormous mouth, a massive Soul Storm suddenly spewed out. The storm spun wildly, like a sharp cone, and shot fiercely toward Xiao Xuan.

Faced with the attack of the Heavenly Tomb Soul, Xiao Xuan simply took steps and walked towards the giant face. The seemingly fierce Soul Storm was directly repelled when it got close to his body!

"Brother Yuan, may I borrow your Heavenly Flames?"

Xiao Xuan smiled, then waved his hand, and the Yin Yang Dual Flames flew out of Xiao Yuan's body and landed in Xiao Xuan's hand.

The next moment, under Xiao Xuan's control, the Yin Yang Dual Flames transformed into a raging sea of two-colored fire, enveloping the giant face formed by the Heavenly Tomb Soul.

"Give me the Soul Origin."

Xiao Xuan chuckled, his tone carrying an undeniable air of dominance!
