Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

”I am the Ten Thousand Spirits Soul King. I entered the Dao through the soul, cultivating arduously for ten thousand years to attain two Dharma Gates.”

”The first is the Ten Thousand Spirits Soul Control Technique. One who cultivates it becomes a Soul Master. A Soul Master can plant a Soul Seal in a Cultivator’s Divine Court, turning them into a Soul Slave.”

”As long as the Soul Master lives, the Soul Seal will not perish. If the Soul Master dies, the Soul Slave will surely die. With a single thought, the Soul Master holds the power of life and death over their Soul Slave.”

”The second is the Divine Soul Refining Technique, a supreme Artifact Refining Technique that uses the soul to refine artifacts, shattering the limits of traditional forging methods.”

”I cultivated arduously for ten thousand years and should have attained the Great Dao. But alas, the Celestial Dao was merciless! It ended my life and severed my path. My entire cultivation, all my abilities, turned to ash beneath the heavenly tribulation. I cannot accept it! I cannot accept it!”

”I hope that the successor who obtains my inheritance will carry my two Dharma Gates forward and make them flourish!”

A long time later, Ye Wushuang slowly opened his eyes. A voice echoed in his mind, along with a countless torrent of information.

This information contained not only the Ten Thousand Spirits Soul Control Technique and the Divine Soul Refining Technique, but also countless cultivation insights and the accumulated knowledge of a Nirvana Powerhouse’s ten-thousand-year life.

Ye Wushuang knew that this senior was a Nirvana Realm powerhouse—the Ten Thousand Spirits Soul King!

The Ten Thousand Spirits Soul King, who controlled the souls of all spirits and enslaved hundreds of millions, was an incredible powerhouse.

From the information, Ye Wushuang learned that above the Spiritual Spring Realm were the Yin Yang Realm, the Nirvana Realm, and the Saint Sage Realm.

The Yin Yang Realm involved understanding life and death, comprehending Yin and Yang, and breaking through the Life and Death Mysterious Pass.

The Nirvana Realm involved using Supreme Power to unlock the body’s hidden treasures, open all hundred acupoints, and achieve Divinization of the five viscera. After this Mortal Ascension, one could attain the Great Dao Power and become a Saint Sage.

A Saint Sage rules for generations, their Holy Might commanding the submission of heaven and earth!

And the Ten Thousand Spirits Soul King had been a Nirvana Realm expert on the verge of Mortal Ascension.

But unfortunately, as he was undergoing Nirvana to attain his Dao, he was destroyed by the Celestial Dao. Everything turned to dust, and only a wisp of his remnant soul remained here to pass on his inheritance.

His remnant soul resided in this very hall, waiting to test the one chosen by fate.

If a person’s soul met his requirements, they would be allowed to live and receive his inheritance.

However, if their soul was not strong enough, their head would explode, and they would die.

Because of the Chaos Dragon Tomb, Ye Wushuang’s soul was far from ordinary, which was why he had survived this challenge.

Not only did he obtain the inheritance, but with the help of the Ten Thousand Spirits Soul King’s remnant soul, his own soul underwent another transformation.

’The Ten Thousand Spirits Soul Control Technique!’

Ye Wushuang looked at this supreme Cultivation Technique. The moment he began to study it, he was utterly shocked.

The heaven-defying nature of this technique was nearly on par with his Heaven-Devouring Dragon Technique.

Aside from strengthening his own soul, its greatest function was to enslave others for his own use. Unless the Soul Master personally removed the Soul Seal, the Soul Slave would have to obey them for their entire life.

There were two types of enslavement. The first was to forcibly plant a Soul Seal in a Cultivator’s Divine Court. Once this was done, the Soul Slave would become a mindless puppet, acting only on the Soul Master’s thoughts.

The second type was when a Soul Slave willingly opened their Divine Court to have the Soul Seal planted. This method would not erase the Soul Slave’s consciousness.

However, once the Soul Seal was planted, the Soul Master could kill the Soul Slave with a single thought, even from thousands of miles away.

Furthermore, it could be used to enslave any living being, whether they were human, beast, ghost, or spirit.

’No wonder it provoked the Celestial Dao’s wrath. An ability this heaven-defying is comparable to the Heaven-Devouring Dragon Technique.’

Ye Wushuang was speechless at such an ability.

Of course, this Dharma Gate had its flaws. Someone who cultivated the Ten Thousand Spirits Soul Control Technique could not enslave a powerhouse whose cultivation was significantly higher than their own.

This was because soul strength gradually increased with one’s cultivation level. Attempting to enslave someone too powerful would result in a backlash. A minor backlash would cause one’s cultivation to regress; a severe one would inflict heavy damage upon the soul.

Phew!

After reading all this, Ye Wushuang let out a long breath. The joy in his heart was indescribable. He didn’t even have time to look at the Divine Soul Refining Technique yet; he was too eager to start cultivating the Ten Thousand Spirits Soul Control Technique.

’To cultivate the Ten Thousand Spirits Soul Control Technique, the first step is to condense a Main Soul Seal. I don’t really know what a soul is, but as long as I follow the Cultivation Technique, it shouldn’t be a problem.’

Ye Wushuang thought to himself as he sat down cross-legged again.

”Kid, you’re awake! You scared Lord Cat to death! What just happened? Why did all the Soul Power in the palace disappear?”

Seeing Ye Wushuang recover, the Dragon Cat breathed a sigh of relief.

Hearing the anxious tone in its voice, Ye Wushuang smiled faintly. They had been together for so long, and although they often gave each other a hard time...

...the bond between the man and the cat had grown much stronger.

”We can talk about that later. For now, keep an eye on those people outside the palace. If they come in, let me know.”

Ye Wushuang said to the Dragon Cat.

Then, he immersed his consciousness into his Divine Court.

As he began circulating the Ten Thousand Spirits Soul Control Technique, a profound and mysterious power appeared within his Divine Court.

This power was invisible and intangible, yet Ye Wushuang could feel it clearly. It was the Soul Power involved in the Ten Thousand Spirits Soul Control Technique.

Ye Wushuang had never encountered Soul Power before, so he could only rely on his perception to begin forming seals according to the technique.

At the same time, remembering the Ghost Fruit he had obtained in the Earth Palace, Ye Wushuang took it out to begin its Refinement.

This Ghost Fruit contained a terrifying amount of Soul Power. He remembered how that Undying Creature had started a huge battle just to seize it.

If he refined it, it would also enhance his Soul Power, which would be of great benefit for condensing the Main Soul Seal.

As he began the Refinement of the Ghost Fruit, Ye Wushuang formed a series of strange Hand Seals within his Divine Court. Soul Power swarmed toward the spot between the brows of his Divine Sense Little Man.

After a long while, a star-shaped mark gradually condensed between the brows of his Divine Sense Little Man. It was connected to his soul, yet also existed independently of it.

The Main Soul Seal was complete!

Feeling the change between his brows, Ye Wushuang was overjoyed. ’The second step is to condense the Soul Slave Seal!’

The method for condensing the Soul Slave Seal was the same as for the Main Soul Seal. With his prior experience, Ye Wushuang quickly succeeded.

He did it several times in a row, condensing nearly ten Soul Slave Seals, his technique growing more and more proficient.

Once a Soul Slave Seal was driven into a Cultivator’s Divine Court, it would bore into their Divine Sense. Unless a being of immense power used some grand technique to forcibly extract it, any attempt to tamper with the seal would destroy it, killing the Soul Slave in the process.

’I’ve succeeded in the initial Cultivation of the Ten Thousand Spirits Soul Control Technique. As for the later parts, they are beyond my reach at my current Cultivation and Realm. I’ll have to wait to cultivate them in the future.’

’Next is the Divine Soul Refining Technique. I wonder what kind of Artifact Refining Dharma Gate it is?’

Filled with curiosity, Ye Wushuang began to read the information.

Outside, seeing that Ye Wushuang had still not emerged, Yuh Yuzhen and the others frowned. He suddenly made a move, grabbing a Disciple from the Demon Abyss and throwing him into the palace.

”AH!”

The Disciple’s face went pale with fright as he let out a piercing shriek.

”Yuh Yuzhen, you’re courting death!”

Seeing this, Lupao flew into a rage. He hadn’t expected Yuh Yuzhen to be so shameless.

”Don’t you want to know if Ye Wushuang is dead or alive in there?”

Yuh Yuzhen turned his head and said coolly, ”We can’t just wait around. If it’s truly dangerous inside, then we’ll give up and go look for other opportunities.”

”Bastard! Then why don’t you throw one of your own Feather Race members in there!”

Lupao’s expression was terrifyingly grim as killing intent flared in his eyes.

Just then, however, the person who had been thrown inside walked back out, glaring at Yuh Yuzhen with a venomous expression.
