Perhaps others didn't know why the Jade Devouring Sky Python had entered Beast Soul Valley, but as soon as Ling Tian heard the news, he realized it was after the Soul Condensing Stone. In other words, Chi Xue and the others had already figured out that the Soul Condensing Stone was the guiding ore used to refine Soul Quenching Liquid. This realization made Fairy Sword Ji and the others look grave.
"I didn't expect Chi Xue to figure all this out so quickly, and to be willing to let the Jade Devouring Sky Python enter Beast Soul Valley. If they really get their hands on the Soul Condensing Stone, we'll have a bit of trouble." Wu Ling furrowed his brow slightly. "Chi Xue and the Jade Devouring Sky Python shouldn't have cultivation realms beyond the limit for using Four-turn Soul Quenching Liquid. If they manage to refine it..."
"Heh, getting the Soul Condensing Stone won't be that easy." Fairy Sword Ji chuckled. "It's true that an Ancient Divine Beast won't be in mortal danger upon entering Beast Soul Valley, but it will have to undergo trials against the beast souls inside. That's a fate worse than death. Just dealing with those trials will likely leave the Jade Devouring Sky Python utterly spent, let alone finding the Soul Condensing Stone."
Before anyone could speak, she added, "It's also possible it won't be able to withstand the trials. In that case, it could still be killed. After all, nothing in this world is absolute. Saying it won't be in mortal danger only applies in relative terms to cultivators like us."
"Besides, the Outer Realm Cultivators are still in Beast Soul Valley. Their high-grade Universe Flying Saucer is incredibly powerful; even the best among quasi-sages would have a hard time dealing with them.
