Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 1404: Soul Illusion Formation

Whoosh...

Xiao Yi flickered, striking instantly.

He was eager to see how this group of martial artists would be rude.

Bam...

Xiao Yi’s fists moved as swiftly as a storm.

The speed of his fists brought with it an astonishing sonic boom.

Almost the moment his figure disappeared from its original place, his fist had already struck the middle-aged man.

"Is this all you’ve got to try and stop me?" Xiao Yi sneered disdainfully.

"Think you can break in with just this skill?" the middle-aged man sneered coldly.

"Hmm?" Xiao Yi frowned.

His fist had hit the middle-aged man, yet the man neither dodged nor flashed, showing no sign of injury?

"How could this be." Xiao Yi’s expression slightly changed.

From the moment these Illusion Light Mansion martial artists appeared, Xiao Yi had sensed their cultivation.

These dozens of martial artists were all at the peak of the Saint King Realm.

And the leading middle-aged man was merely a martial artist of the Fourth Layer of the Saint Emperor Realm.

Yet this kind of cultivation, after taking his punch without change of expression, seemed as if ignoring him?

Xiao Yi squinted his eyes and unleashed another punch.

The middle-aged man still neither dodged nor flashed, with a cold sneer at the corner of his mouth.

"This little strength?" The middle-aged man sneered, "Boy, your flimsy punches won’t trouble me."

In the distance, both Guu Lianxing and Gongsun Huowu changed their expressions.

"How could this be." Guu Lianxing frowned.

"With Young Master Xiao Yi’s strength, this Illusion Star Mansion martial artist should not be able to withstand one move."

"Little thief, show the momentum you have when killing!" Gongsun Huowu complained angrily, raising her fist.

Clang...

In the air, a cold white sword light flashed by.

Xiao Yi held the Cold Flame Sword, slashing downward with it.

The middle-aged man still neither dodged nor flashed, only sneering coldly.

Shh...

The sharp Cold Flame Sword instantly cut the middle-aged man in half at the waist.

"Hmm?" Xiao Yi furrowed his brow.

The middle-aged man stood expressionless, then turned into a burst of illusion light, disappearing out of thin air.

Seconds later, he reformed again, unharmed.

As if that bisecting had never happened.

"Hiss." Both Guu Lianxing and Gongsun Huowu gasped simultaneously.

Xiao Yi frowned tightly, "Illusion? Illusion Array?"

What he had just cut was definitely not the middle-aged man’s true form.

The only possibility was an illusion array shadow.

Yet, Xiao Yi couldn’t sense a shred of formation power at the moment.

With his expertise in formations, if these Illusion Light Mansion martial artists had used a formation, he wouldn’t possibly be unable to tell.

At that moment, the middle-aged man gave Xiao Yi a cold stare.

"Boy, you’ve punched, slashed, and breached."

"Now, will you retreat yourselves or shall we force you out?"

Xiao Yi’s face immediately turned grim.

Gongsun Huowu shouted angrily, "What right does Illusion Light Mansion have to keep us from entering Illusion Light Dangerous Land?"

The middle-aged man responded coldly, "Because this is our Illusion Light Mansion’s territory."

"Illusion Light Mansion’s territory? Ridiculous." Gongsun Huowu sneered coldly.

"These dangerous lands might be older than the legacy of our Eighteen Mansions."

"Naming them after mansions is merely because the mansions are the strongest powers near these dangerous lands."

"Neither Heavenly Rope Prefecture nor Heavenly Star Prefecture, and other mansions, have ever been arrogant enough to claim a dangerous land as their own."

"What right does your Illusion Light Mansion have?"

"No right needed." The middle-aged man shook his head coldly.

"Just because here is within Illusion Light Mansion’s sphere of influence."

"If you wish to enter Illusion Light Dangerous Land, it cannot be done without Illusion Light Mansion’s permission."

The middle-aged man’s voice turned icy, "You should leave now, or else I won’t hold back anymore."

"You..." Gongsun Huowu was furious, biting her silver teeth.

Whoosh... Whoosh... Whoosh...

The dozens of Illusion Light Mansion martial artists behind the middle-aged man flashed, surrounding Xiao Yi and the two others with hostility.

At this moment, Xiao Yi, who was originally frowning, suddenly relaxed his brow, a cold sneer crossing the corner of his mouth.

"I see, you are Soul Masters."

"Hmm?" The middle-aged man’s face showed a trace of surprise as he looked at Xiao Yi with slight astonishment.

However, that astonishment quickly turned into disdain.

"Boy, you do have some insight."

"But even if you know we are Soul Masters, what can you do? Unable to break our methods, you cannot defeat us."

"Is that so?" Xiao Yi sneered.

"Burning Silence."

Boom...

An invisible force suddenly erupted.

Flames filled the sky, raging around.

Whoosh...

The surrounding scene flickered suddenly.

As the flames fell, the Illusion Light Mansion martial artists spat blood and collapsed.

Xiao Yi’s face showed a hint of enlightenment.

He was indeed correct, these martial artists were all Soul Masters.

And the technique just now should have been a soul illusion formation cast by Soul Masters.

No wonder he couldn’t notice at first.

"How could this be, such powerful soul skills." The middle-aged man’s face was pale, looking at Xiao Yi in shock.

"Are you a Soul Master too?"

Whoosh...

Xiao Yi did not respond but flickered, striking instantly.

Bam... Bam... Bam...

Explosive sounds rang out one after another.

Xiao Yi’s figure turned into an illusion.

As the illusion settled, all Illusion Light Mansion martial artists fell unconscious, eyes blacked.

Xiao Yi didn’t take their lives, he just knocked them out.

"Impressive." Gongsun Huowu exclaimed pleasantly.

"I didn’t expect you to be a Soul Master too, little thief."

Though her words called him a little thief, her face smiled so much her eyes arched.

Guu Lianxing gave her a peculiar look.

Xiao Yi didn’t pay attention to the expressions of the two behind him but searched the middle-aged man.

Upon retrieving a Universe Ring from him, Xiao Yi sensed it.

"Indeed." Xiao Yi’s hand flashed with light, extracting a book.

"Soul Illusion Formation."

Xiao Yi glanced at it, revealing a face of enlightenment.

This was one of Illusion Light Mansion’s soul skills, containing the essence of formations.

It was a bizarre illusion formation cast with Soul Master methods.

Xiao Yi skimmed it and pondered for a moment.

After ten minutes, Xiao Yi opened his eyes, smiling.

"Illusion Array? Let’s see how you handle it yourselves."

Boom...

An invisible force burst forth, enveloping the present Illusion Light Mansion martial artists.

"Let’s go." Xiao Yi said.

The trio entered Illusion Light Dangerous Land.

Suddenly, Xiao Yi halted his steps.

"What is it?" Guu Lianxing asked puzzled.

After a moment of thought, Xiao Yi spoke deeply, "Miss Lianxing and Miss Huowu, perhaps you should wait outside this dangerous land?"

"Illusion Light Dangerous Land is acclaimed as the most dangerous of the Eighteen Mansions’ lands for a reason."

Xiao Yi hadn’t thoroughly investigated the Eighteen Mansions’ lands, only briefly reviewed the information.

Furthermore, of all the dangerous lands, Illusion Light Dangerous Land had the least information.

And compared to other lands where martial artist teams explore; few martial artists come here.

In summation, the entire dangerous land is filled with eeriness.

"The most dangerous dangerous land." Guu Lianxing muttered, frowning.

"I have seen some rumors about Illusion Light Dangerous Land in my family’s records."

"Many years ago, numerous shocking events have transpired here."

"Among them, not a few well-known Martial Arts Great Powers have died here mysteriously."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi frowned.

Beside him, Gongsun Huowu pursed her lips, "Lianxing, you’re just scaring us. Martial Arts Great Powers, at that level, are there any existences in the Central Region that can harm them?"

"Not to mention a mere dangerous land."

"I thought so at first." Guu Lianxing shook her head, her expression suddenly turning serious.

"However, later I saw a report dossier, and then I knew it was definitely not a story."

"A hundred years ago, the former Master of Thunder Light Mansion, died here mysteriously, leaving no remains."

"What?" Xiao Yi and Gongsun Huowu’s expressions changed instantly.

...

Second update.

Next update, in an hour.
