Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 2065: Chapter 2065: Escaped Again...

”Then we have a plan.”

Xiao Yi looked at the expressions of the two, and smiled.

”This is bad.” Xie Wudao’s heart skipped a beat.

”Why?” Xia Canglan looked at Xie Wudao’s anxious face and said solemnly, ”Could it be that this kid would risk his life for a treasure?”

Xie Wudao’s face twitched, silent, but the answer was obvious.

”I still want to go back.” Xiao Yi nodded and said.

”Give me a reason.” Xia Canglan frowned.

In his view, he had already clearly explained the strangeness and danger within the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm.

Whether it’s the strangeness of the Secret Realm itself, the endless sand snakes, or the erratic Heavenly Sand Two Monsters.

Any of these could claim the life of this boy Xiao Xun.

At this moment, Xiao Yi took out an inner core.

This was the inner core collected from those sand snakes just killed.

A thin stream of black air surrounded the inner core.

”Hmm? Evil power?” Xia Canglan instantly recognized the black air on the inner core.

Xiao Yi nodded, ”I just feel something is amiss within the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm.”

”I want to go back to investigate.”

Xia Canglan shook his head, ”The Heavenly Sand Secret Realm is inherently strange.”

”As for these evil powers, perhaps it’s just that some evil cultivators slipped in among the martial artists who entered; or perhaps evil cultivators entered long ago.”

”These evil cultivators died, their bodies swallowed by the sand snakes.”

”And these sand snakes couldn’t digest the poison power, so it lingered on the surface of the inner core.”

Xia Canglan’s explanation had no flaws.

Because the evil power on this inner core was only lingering on the surface, not permeating the core itself.

Thus, these sand snakes were indeed demon beasts, not evil beasts, nor did they possess any trace of evil power.

”I still feel something’s not right.” Xiao Yi frowned.

Xia Canglan also frowned, ”The only ones who could do evil within the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm are perhaps the Evil Lord Mansion.”

”And furthermore, to do so silently, it would only be a big figure within the Evil Lord Mansion.”

”You should give me reasons or evidence.”

”You are reputed as an Evil Cultivator Slayer, you tell me, do you have evidence?”

”If you do, I can report directly to the Three Halls, letting their power personally come forth, rather than letting you rashly enter the dangerous realm again.”

”Evidence? No.” Xiao Yi shook his head.

”Then let it be.” Xia Canglan said solemnly, ”Let me be direct with you, the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm has been lost for countless years.”

”Never appearing in all these years.”

”The only reason this realm has appeared in the normal world is because of the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters inside.”

”And these two old monsters aren’t fond of outsiders entering the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm.”

”The last time I entered was purely by touching the Space Law by accident, and even that could not be hidden from the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters.”

”Therefore.” Xia Canglan’s tone was undeniably firm.

”You don’t need to worry about evil cultivators inside.”

”If there really were, how could they escape your notice as an Evil Cultivator Slayer?”

”Not to mention, the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters, those terrifying old monsters.”

”This...” Xiao Yi frowned deeply.

”Kid.” Xie Wudao, who had been silent, suddenly spoke out.

”If what you seek is a Supreme Treasure inside, you can consider this matter later.”

”The Master of the Main Hall and Senior Tianji both said that your priority now is to save your own life first.”

”Once you’re safe, you’ll formally succeed the Three Halls. Then, whatever treasure you desire, let those two seniors seize it for you.”

Seize?

Xie Wudao, indeed worthy as the Legendary Palace Master of the Black Demon Hall.

Seeking treasure, not by ’search’, but by ’seize’.

Xiao Yi nodded, then shook his head.

The next second, his figure flickered and suddenly vanished from sight.

His figure abruptly appeared before the space rift nearby.

As he was about to enter, Xia Canglan’s speed was even faster, intercepting his way.

A snow-white cold sword barred the path.

”Change your route.” Xia Canglan firmly and icily uttered three words.

Xiao Yi squinted his eyes, realizing entering the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm past Xia Canglan was evidently impossible.

Furthermore, both Xia Canglan and Xie Wudao evidently wouldn’t let him re-enter the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm.

Xiao Yi frowned, ”May I ask, Senior Xia, how old are you now?”

Xia Canglan pondered for a moment, then spoke solemnly, ”Twenty-eight thousand years.”

Xiao Yi smiled indifferently, ”Then let me ask you, Senior Xia, what is your cultivation now?”

”Or let me phrase it differently, at my current age, did you have cultivation and strength like mine?”

”As I know from records, Senior Xia was once a renowned Heavenly Talent in the Ice Emperor Palace.”

”In your youth, also recognized across the continent as a Supreme Monster.”

At these words, Xia Canglan’s face slightly clouded, ”In terms of cultivation, back then I was not like you; in terms of strength, your ability to transcend through several small realms instantly surpasses mine.”

”But, kid, do not become arrogant.”

”You still have not grown to my height, nor are you yet my match.”

Xiao Yi shook his head, ”Senior Xia misunderstood, I’m not becoming arrogant.”

”I wish to tell Senior Xia that your talent and aptitude are not inferior to mine.”

”Yet it was your cautious approach in youth that resulted in cultivation and strength far less than mine.”

”If I were also so, must I reach such an age like Senior Xia to possess such cultivation?”

Xiao Yi’s eyes sharpened, ”If I do not die, I am confident to catch up to Senior Xia’s cultivation within a hundred years, would Senior Xia believe it?”

In fact, for Xia Canglan to have such cultivation at twenty-eight thousand years was already quite terrifying.

In his youth, he must have been a monster Heavenly Talent indeed.

Among the Mirror Flower Water Moon Four Great Elders, the youngest Holy Moon Elder lived a full eighty thousand years.

The strongest Elder Jingz Yue, evidently lived even longer.

But comparing energies with Xiao Yi, Elder Jingz Yue was evidently far inferior to Xia Canglan.

Xia Canglan’s aura was stronger by several measures.

The Martial Arts Talent of Xia Canglan can only be imagined in its greatness.

Xia Canglan squinted, ”Kid, I know you’re sharp-tongued and perceptive.”

”But you don’t need to speak those twisted words to me.”

”Your aptitude, gaining their recognition, is a hundred times better than mine.”

”I do not approve of your reckless actions.”

”As long as you are alive, that’s more important than anything else.”

Xiao Yi’s tone halted, Xia Canglan, indeed seems impervious to persuasion.

”Alright.” Xiao Yi solemnly nodded, ”However, I hope both of you won’t disturb my training.”

”Rest assured.” Xie Wuda nodded, ”The Master of the Main Hall has given strict orders for us to protect your life without incident.”

”Moreover, we are not to affect your training.”

”We will only follow from afar.”

Xiao Yi nodded.

With a flash... the figure disappeared from the spot, transforming into a black stream of light, flying to the distance.

In the distance, millions of miles away.

Xiao Yi frowned slightly.

As he flew rapidly, he also sensed the presence behind him.

Xie Wuda and Xia Canglan did not follow.

The two would always keep a distance of millions, even tens of millions of miles, not influencing Xiao Yi’s training.

At this moment, Xiao Yi squinted.

In the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm, he indeed feels something amiss.

He also indeed wants to return once.

Especially with Xia Canglan’s words, ’The Heavenly Sand Secret Realm hasn’t appeared for countless years, only the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters can make it emerge.’

The Heavenly Sand Two Monsters do not welcome outsiders in their realm and would never open it.

Then, what is the reason for the eerie emergence of the secret realm now?

”Phew.” Xiao Yi took a deep breath, somewhat helpless.

Having strong followers for protection is indeed a wonderful thing.

At least he wouldn’t have to worry about getting bullied by other Old Monsters, and his life could be guaranteed without harm.

But the sole disadvantage is that his actions would be constrained.

Senior Luoo is always domineering.

His strict orders undoubtedly make Xia Canglan and others not dare to disobey, nor do they dare allow Xiao Yi to re-enter the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm.

At this moment, Xiao Yi’s body trembled.

It was the Ice Phoenix Sword violently trembling.

”There must be something you want inside.” Xiao Yi squinted.

Indeed, this is what truly made Xiao Yi decide to return to the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm.

The Ice Phoenix Sword’s ’requirements’ have always been high.

It wouldn’t be this reactive unless something inside was truly compelling enough.

This time the tremor was even more intense than most of its previous reactions.

What’s the Supreme Treasure inside the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm?

”Oh well, seeking fortune amidst danger, let’s gamble once more.” Xiao Yi chuckled, not taking the dangers within the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm to heart.

The Ice Phoenix Sword has never disappointed him.

He also trusts the Ice Phoenix Sword.

Surely, this will be an opportunity.

Xiao Yi squinted slightly, turned his head a bit to glance at the distant rear.

”Trying to stop me? If I am willing to let you follow, you may follow; if I’m not, none of you can keep up.”

Xiao Yi sneered.

With a flash... the figure disappeared silently in the high sky.

...

In the distance, millions of miles away.

Beside Xia Canglan and Xie Wuda, the air suddenly started pulsing and vibrating.

The two slightly bowed.

”Sorted out the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters?” Xia Canglan asked.

A figure in the air shook its head.

Xia Canglan nodded, laughed lightly, ”Indeed, those two Old Monsters are almost invincible in the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm.”

”Even Senior Changtian once could only knock a few strikes on them, severely injuring them but couldn’t truly overcome them.”

In the air, the figure nodded.

Inside the Heavenly Sand Secret Realm, the strength of the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters is evidently fearsome.

But, for these indistinct black-clothed Martial Artists in the air, protecting Xiao Xun is the primary task.

Whether or not to exhaust their efforts to kill the Heavenly Sand Two Monsters is not their consideration.

At this moment, Xia Canglan chuckled lightly.

Right then.

Xia Canglan’s expression suddenly changed, ”Hmm? What happened, the kid’s trace in my senses is gone.”

”Where is he?” Xie Wuda was startled, asked urgently.

Xia Canglan’s eyes widened suddenly, ”Damn, the kid ran.”

”Quick, chase him.”

The pulsing air currents suddenly vanished from the spot.

Crack... crack...

Space, trembled and collapsed all the way.

The skies instantly changed dramatically.

In the high sky, lightning flashed and thunder roared, thunderstrikes surged endlessly.

Yet even the thunder couldn’t match the speed of those air currents.

”So fast.” Xia Canglan’s face showed astonishment, ”Let’s follow.”

With a flash... flash...

Xia Canglan and Xie Wuda flashed to pursue.

...

Second update.
