Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 1406: Battle Against the Soul Beast
"Hmm?"
The martial artist put away the demon beast core in his hand, and obviously noticed Xiao Yi and the others not far away.
"What do you want?" The martial artist’s face showed a wary expression.
Being cautious while traveling outside is very normal.
But this trace of wariness soon turned into ordinary caution.
"You should be aware of the rules of the Illusion Light Dangerous Land, I advise you not to target me."
After speaking, the martial artist swiftly left.
At the original place, Xiao Yi was momentarily stunned but then reacted.
It seems this martial artist fears they might kill and rob him.
However, the rules of the Illusion Light Dangerous Land?
The three continued onward, always heading deeper, though their speed was not fast.
On the journey, they occasionally encountered other martial artists.
Although the Illusion Light Dangerous Land wasn’t like other dangerous lands with groups of martial artists everywhere, quite a number came here to train.
It could hardly be considered as rare.
Along the way, Xiao Yi didn’t purposely stop a martial artist to inquire.
However, through indirect questioning with those martial artists, the three roughly understood the matters of the Illusion Light Dangerous Land.
"No wonder one needs to get the Illusion Light Mansion’s permission to enter the Illusion Light Dangerous Land." Xiao Yi muttered to himself, shaking his head. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
The so-called rules are set by the Illusion Light Mansion.
Martial artists training in the Illusion Light Dangerous Land must not kill each other.
Also, the demon beast cores and other spoils obtained here must be handed over half to the Illusion Light Mansion when leaving.
The so-called permission is essentially going to the Illusion Light Mansion to make a record.
With these records, the Illusion Light Mansion knows how many martial artists have entered the Dangerous Land.
After these martial artists leave the Illusion Light Dangerous Land, they are also subject to searches by the martial artists of the Illusion Light Mansion.
"The Illusion Light Mansion is quite domineering," Gongsun Huowu said angrily.
Along the way, Xiao Yi casually killed a demon beast.
He took the inner core and sensed something, showing surprise.
Indeed, the demon beasts here are somewhat special.
The demon beast core contained the soul power of a martial artist soul master.
Xiao Yi took out some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, combined them with the core, and refined them into Elixir Elixir.
After swallowing them, a strange aura burst forth from his body.
"So that’s it, the soul power increased." Xiao Yi showed a realized expression.
The demon beast cores here are as precious as those in the Golden Light Dangerous Land there.
The difference is, in the Golden Light Dangerous Land, the demon beast cores are refined into Golden Light Pills.
Golden Light Pills are elixirs that enhance a martial artist’s strength.
Whereas the demon beast cores here are refined into elixirs that increase a martial artist’s soul power.
More accurately, it increases the soul power of a soul master.
Just like normal martial artists, their entire Primordial Power is a symbol of cultivation.
For soul masters, their entire soul power is also a symbol of cultivation.
More simply, the demon beast cores here, when refined into elixirs, are absolutely good cultivation items for soul masters.
No wonder the Illusion Light Mansion is so domineering, claiming the entire Illusion Light Dangerous Land for themselves.
And painstakingly setting various rules.
Another rule for martial artists training in the Illusion Light Dangerous Land.
That alchemists and martial artists who practice the Fire Dao need to undergo stricter registration and searches in the Illusion Light Mansion.
For normal martial artists, even if they kill demon beasts while training in the Illusion Light Dangerous Land, they cannot immediately use the inner core.
The demon beast core cannot be directly consumed and absorbed by martial artists; it must be refined into elixirs before use.
Different from refining, once alchemists enter the dangerous land, they can directly kill demon beasts and immediately refine them into elixirs to use.
Thus, alchemists and martial artists who practice the Fire Dao need to hand over more demon beast cores after leaving the Dangerous Land.
"Our Eighteen Mansions, none have ever so occupied a dangerous land; yet the Illusion Light Mansion does, quite domineeringly." Guu Lianxing shook his head.
Xiao Yi’s face was indifferent, "After all, the soul pills here are incredibly precious. As the overlord force nearby, the Illusion Light Mansion naturally wouldn’t suffer losses."
The demon beasts here are called soul beasts, possessing soul power, and their inner cores are also called soul pills.
The soul beasts are a branch of demon beasts; just as soul masters are a rare profession among countless martial artists.
Soul masters are known for their mysterious and unpredictable techniques.
Soul beasts are the same.
Soul beasts are a rare branch of demon beasts.
For Xiao Yi, he’s never encountered soul beasts in the other major dangerous lands he’s traversed in the Central Region.
But that doesn’t mean only the Illusion Light Dangerous Land possesses soul beasts.
In the vast Central Region, other special dangerous lands may also have soul beasts.
It’s just he never encountered them, and soul beasts live in unique areas.
"Let’s go, deeper ahead," Xiao Yi said.
The three continued onward.
There must be Forbidden Land Cave Mansions within the Illusion Light Dangerous Land.
And the Illusion Light phenomena here certainly originates from the Forbidden Land Cave Mansions.
Forbidden Land Cave Mansions cannot be outside the Dangerous Land; they can only be deeper inside.
Thus, the three must head deeper into the Illusion Light Dangerous Land, no matter what.
In fact, if the demon beast cores here are so special, if possible, Xiao Yi intends to train here for quite some time.
After all, he is considered a soul master.
He seldom cultivates soul master skills previously, mainly because soul master cultivation is quite troublesome.
And he has other trump cards and methods to enhance his martial arts.
Now, the soul beast cores here are excellent soul master cultivation items.
Plus, his Fire Control Beast Martial Soul has reached the Purple Rank, making the use of soul master’s techniques extremely powerful.
It’s the perfect time to practice soul master techniques now.
However, the most urgent matter is rescuing Guu Lianxing; as Guu Lianxing’s remaining time is short.
He could only choose to return and train in the Illusion Light Dangerous Land later when time permits, and surely yield valuable outcomes by then.
Thinking so, Xiao Yi collected his thoughts and continued onward.
Soon after, the three finally arrived at the depths of the Dangerous Land.
Xiao Yi quickly encountered a soul beast above the Saint Emperor Realm.
Boom...
An invisible force swept over suddenly.
That was a soul power storm, extremely strange, and extremely powerful.
Xiao Yi quickly cast several starlight powers to protect Guu Lianxing and the others.
Soon after, the Cold Flame Sword appeared out of thin air, blocking this soul power storm.
Soul beasts and soul power are indeed eerie, but that doesn’t mean martial artists who cultivate other martial arts cannot deal with them.
Soul power is also a form of power.
Normal martial artists can use Primordial Power and Martial Techniques to slay soul beasts, but it would be rather troublesome.
Soul power’s invisibility often catches normal martial artists off guard.
Of course, by Xiao Yi’s strength, slaying this Saint Emperor Realm demon beast is quite easy.
But he wanted to seize this opportunity to practice his soul power control.
Anyway, in two days, it will be the full moon.
Consider these two days as a training session.
Boom...
An invisible force erupted from Xiao Yi’s body.
It swept out, fiercely colliding with the soul power storm sent by the soul beast in front.
...
