Chapter 455: Gaining Another Wave of Items (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Their Sages were called Demons!
“Are there any demons in Xingluo Territory?” Xiao Shi continued to ask. Since demons were like Sages, he was definitely not inferior to a Sage in terms of combat strength. Thinking of how the demonic factions owned nearly half of the Xingluo Province, Xiao Shi felt that there were very likely demons in the Xingluo Province.
However, Xiang Zizhen shook his head. “No. If there are demons in the Xingluo Territory, then the current Xingluo Territory is led by the demonic factions. But, a demon appeared in the Xingluo Territory back then! This piece of flesh… is very likely one of the pieces of flesh of that demon back then.”
Xiao Shi was enlightened. It was just a piece of flesh. Yet it made him feel as if there was life in this piece of flesh. Just this point alone gave him a preliminary understanding of how terrifying demons were.
However, what he wanted to know now was what did the Red Tiger lineage, or rather, the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect, have to do with demons?
This was something he had been puzzled about ever since he realized that the cultivation method of the Red Tiger lineage was not a pure orthodox cultivation method. Instead, it was a cultivation method between the orthodox and the demonic path.
This time, his soul even had a desire to devour this piece of demon flesh. There must be some connection between the two. However, with his current status, he definitely could not ask Xiang Zizhen this question.
“Xiang Zizhen and I are both from the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect. Does he also have this desire to devour this piece of flesh?’ Xiao Shi glanced at Xiang Zizhen calmly. A thought suddenly arose in his heart. If he were to condense a soul seal on Xiang Zizhen, then he could sense Xiang Zizhen’s soul fluctuation through this soul seal and obtain the answer. He could also use the soul seal to observe Xiang Zizhen. It would also be more conducive to his investigation of him.
There were actually two types of condensation of soul seals. One was condensation for observation. The other was the condensation used for killing. If it was a soul seal used for observation, it was actually very difficult to detect.
Xiao Shi did not have to worry about being discovered by the other party. As a Heaven-rank secret technique, if it didn’t have enough concealment, it definitely couldn’t bear the name of a Heaven-rank.
Thinking of this, Xiao Shi did not hesitate and quietly condensed a soul seal in Xiang Zizhen’s mind. To ensure that nothing went wrong, he had condensed this spiritual sense extremely secretly. From Xiang Zizhen’s expression, he did not notice anything unusual.
Whoosh!
The moment the soul seal was condensed, Xiao Shi immediately felt Xiang Zizhen’s soul fluctuation. Through the other party’s soul fluctuations, he could accurately grasp the other party’s true emotions, reactions, and so on. No matter how well he disguised himself, the fluctuations in his soul could not be faked.
At this moment, Xiao Shi realized Xiang Zizhen’s soul fluctuation was far from being as calm as he appeared. His soul fluctuation was extremely intense. However, he forcefully suppressed it.
“As expected!! He wants to devour this demon’s flesh just like me!” Xiao Shi was certain of this. Xiang Zizhen had already completely suppressed the demon’s flesh. He raised his hand and took away this piece of flesh. However, the soul fluctuation in his mind was still strong.
Then, under Xiang Zizhen’s appearance, the other three jailers also defeated the Martial Soul Realm’s demonic cultivators fighting them one after another and captured them. This operation could be said to be dangerous for them.
No one expected these demonic cultivators actually had a piece of demon flesh in their hands. After they finished capturing and returned to the stronghold in the territory of the demonic path, Xiang Zizhen began to arrange for some jailers to escort these captured prisoners back to the prison. Xiao Shi was among them. Although he had only captured two Martial Soul Realm demonic cultivators this time, the others had captured a lot.
Now, they were all escorted back to the prison. At the same time, Xiao Shi planned to exchange for a few more prisoners from the prison through the contributions he had made this time. The escort journey was calm and nothing happened.
After successfully returning to the prison, Xiao Shi immediately used his contributions to successfully exchange for four prisoners at the Soul Awakening Stage. He did not hesitate at all. He decisively killed all four prisoners at the Soul Awakening Stage.
Coupled with the eight demonic cultivators of the Soul Awakening Stage he had killed previously and a demonic cultivator of the spiritual sense stage, there were as many as 13 items dropped this time!
“Not a bad harvest!” In the Wangchen Inn, Xiao Shi licked his lips excitedly. He began to check his gains this time. He checked it first.
It was an item dropped after killing the spiritual sense demonic cultivator.
[Name: Soul Avoiding Pearl]
[Type: Bead]
[Grade: Martial Soul Level]
[Introduction: This is a bead that can avoid the detection of spiritual sense after it is activated.]
[Remark: When it is activated, it will last for three minutes. It can be activated a total of three times.]
Avoiding the detection of spiritual senses was undoubtedly an extremely powerful ability. However, it could only be used three times. So it lowered the level of this item. However, the good thing was that this item could be used before the spiritual sense stage. Xiao Shi could use it now. It was not bad.
“Next is the item at the Soul Awakening stage.”
Xiao Shi took out the remaining items.
[Name: Ancient Soul Sword]
[Type: Weapon]
[Grade: Martial Soul Level]
[Introduction: An ancient sword that contains a fierce soul. Through the fierce souls inside, the ancient sword can erupt with even stronger power.]
[Remark: In desperate situations, it can detonate the evil spirits and form a powerful attack.]
Xiao Shi’s heart skipped a beat. This was a Martial Soul Realm weapon. The greatest characteristic of Martial Soul Realm weapons was that they often had a weapon soul. However, these weapon souls did not have intelligence. A weapon soul that gave birth to a consciousness was not called a weapon soul, but a weapon spirit.
For example, Xiao Shi’s baleful saber. The reason why he could release the baleful aura was because there was a baleful soul in the baleful saber.
“With this Martial Soul Realm sword, I believe that when I use the sword technique and the combined killing move of the three weapons, its power will increase to a greater extent. If I can get another Martial Spirit Realm staff and an axe, then my combat strength can still increase!”
Xiao Shi continued to look at the items behind him.
[Name: Soul Recovery Pill (Rare)]
[Type: Pill]
[Grade: Martial Soul Level]
[Introduction: A pill that can heal the soul.]
[Remark: If you use too much, the effect will be reduced.]
[Name: Soul Agitating Talisman]
[Type: Talisman]
[Grade: Martial Soul Level]
[Introduction: After using it, it can stimulate more soul power in a short period of time.]
[Remark: But during that period, you will fall into exhaustion.]
[Name: Soul Stabilizing Talisman]
[Type: Talisman]
[Grade: Martial Soul Level]
[Introduction: After using it, it can stabilize your soul to the greatest extent.]
[Remark: However, if you encounter too strong a powerhouse, it might lose its effect.]
[Name: Soul Testing Talisman]
[Type: Talisman]
[Grade: Martial Soul Level]
[Introduction: You can use your soul power to calculate your recent soul.]
[Remark: You can calculate if your soul will be damaged in the near future to understand the recent blessings and disasters.]
Xiao Shi looked at the four items. He felt that the items dropped this time were far inferior to the last time. Fortunately, there were more of them. He could also choose to put these relatively ordinary items into the Purple Treasure Tablet. After converting them into the corresponding value points, he could exchange them for other better items from the Myriad Treasure Pagoda.
It just so happened that he was thinking of breaking through to the Martial Soul Realm. It was time to go to the Myriad Treasure Pagoda to exchange for a wave of items. But before that, it was better to see what items dropped at the back.
He looked at the seventh item.
[Name: Soul Control Three Techniques (Heaven-rank)]
[Type: Secret Technique]
[Grade: Martial Soul Level]
[Introduction: A powerful mystic technique of unknown origin corresponds to three mystic techniques. They can each cultivate a mystic technique at the Soul Awakening stage, the spiritual sense stage, and the Life Spirit stage.]
[Remark: You need a sufficiently powerful soul to cultivate. If your soul is not strong enough, there will be a risk of your soul being destroyed..]
