Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

When Ling Xiao was practicing alchemy, Dan Feng and others acted as protectors outside, so there was nothing to fear.

Liu Lian had been tirelessly shuttling between the Willis Clan and Yingjie Building these days. Despite the exhaustion, she found joy in it.

For her, protecting Ling Xiao was a joyful matter.

When the twenty Young Dragon Pills were successfully refined, Ji Luoyu returned.

She brought back ten sets of materials for making Heavenly Gang Earthly Fiends Red Sun Spicy Hot Pot.

Thus, Ling Xiao continued to make the spicy hot pot.

It didn’t take long, just one shichen to complete.

In fact, during both alchemy and the preparation of the spicy hot pot, Ling Xiao fully utilized his advantage of possessing the Gemini Martial Spirit.

Continuously researching the Secret Realm map.

With the assistance of Tai Chi Eye, he finally unraveled the mysteries of this Secret Realm map.

It turns out, underneath the Mysterious World lives another intelligent life form.

Just like the Sea Race in the ocean, these underground beings of the Mysterious World are called the ”Spirit Clan”.

The Spirit Clan has lived underground for long; thus, they are highly adapted to darkness, also known as the ”Night People Tribe”.

The location indicated on this map is a remnant of the Night People Tribe. Whether or not there are still Night People living inside remains unknown.

But it is certain that the ruins of the Night People Tribe hold a large number of precious treasures.

Just like the Changle Secret Realm on Changle Immortal Island, with good fortune, not only can one’s cultivation level make a significant breakthrough, but one might also obtain unexpected items.

”Everyone, consume the Heavenly Gang Earthly Fiends Red Sun Spicy Hot Pot and Young Dragon Pills, retreat in seclusion for three days and strive for a complete breakthrough in your cultivation. After that, let’s visit the ruins of the Night People Tribe.”

After completing the ten servings of Heavenly Gang Earthly Fiends Red Sun Spicy Hot Pot, Ling Xiao gave the directive.

Of course, as the creator, he received two servings of the Heavenly Gang Earthly Fiends Red Sun Spicy Hot Pot.

The remaining eight people, including Liu Lian, each got one serving.

Twelve Young Dragon Pills were also obtained.

Naturally, five were promised to Sun Leng Chan, but even so, seven were left.

The remaining eight Young Dragon Pills were similarly distributed among the other eight individuals.

Three days later, Dan Feng was the first to end his seclusion. His cultivation level had reached the pinnacle of the Yin-Yang realm tenth level, just a step away from a breakthrough.

He believed that as long as he accompanied Ling Xiao into that Secret Realm, a breakthrough in cultivation was inevitable.

Liu Lian and Dan Feng’s situations were quite similar.

Mo Yu and Zhu Shao Conɡ also emerged from seclusion, each achieving breakthroughs in their cultivation, reaching the Yin-Yang realm fifth level cultivation realm.

Although this strength still falls short compared to the martial artists of the Tianhai Empire, it’s at least progress.

Fengming Lian and Ji Luoyu broke through to the pinnacle of the Yin-Yang realm sixth level, which was quite impressive.

Other than Ling Xiao, Joshua Long and Leng Mei made the most progress.

After the life-and-death battle with Shaw Little Monster, the potential of the Dragon Clan within him was triggered, coupled with the effects of the Heavenly Gang Earthly Fiends Red Sun Spicy Hot Pot and Young Dragon Pills, he unexpectedly achieved a breakthrough to the pinnacle of the Yin-Yang realm seventh level!

Leng Mei was equally terrifying, having absorbed the energy from the Wan Gui Banner, plus the two miraculous medicines, her cultivation level reached the pinnacle of the Yin-Yang realm seventh level, almost catching up to the extremely talented Joshua Long. This progress was undeniably remarkable.

As for Ling Xiao, he was the one who remained in seclusion the longest, yet his breakthrough was inevitable.

His cultivation level had directly leaped from the intermediate stage of the Yin-Yang realm seventh level to the early stage of the Yin-Yang realm eighth level.

With this cultivation level, even if faced with the Fengmo Shengjian again, he could confront it without fear.

”Alright, everyone’s cultivation has broken through. However, this is still not enough; the next key step is up to the Secret Realm in the underground world. How much your cultivation can break through depends entirely on individual capability; I can’t help you with that.”

Ling Xiao looked seriously at the martial artists from the Heavenly Dynasty Empire and said, ”This journey to the Secret Realm is bound to be fraught with dangers, so proceed with utmost caution.”

”Rest assured, Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor. If fear of death were an issue, we wouldn’t have come to the Tianhai Empire. Since we’re here, we never thought of being afraid.”

Everyone’s thoughts were clear.

Rather than being humiliated at the White Tiger Summit, they might as well achieve more breakthroughs, for even a death caused by adventure would be worth it.

Prior to heading to the Secret Realm, Ling Xiao gifted five Perfect Grade Young Dragon Pills to Sun Leng Chan.

Subsequently, the group of nine quietly left Tianhai City and headed towards the Night People Tribe ruins, located a few dozen miles away from Tianhai City.

According to the map he decoded, about a hundred meters underground was an altar that could lead to the underground world.

This was not a difficult task for Yin-Yang realm martial artists.

With the position confirmed, Ling Xiao pierced through the ground a hundred meters down, with everyone following closely behind.

A hundred meters underground turned out to be a very spacious area.

It housed an altar that seemed abandoned.

”How is it? Can it be reactivated?”

Dan Feng asked.

”No problem. This altar is activated by Spirit Stones and a Magic Array. With my abilities, it won’t take more than one shichen to repair. You all stand guard while I repair the altar.”

Ling Xiao was extremely grateful to his master Yuan Venerate for imparting the Method of Array Refinement, otherwise, even a common altar could stump him.

”Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor, it seems we’re being watched.”

Dan Feng whispered.

”I know.”

Ling Xiao nodded and said, ”From the moment I obtained that Secret Realm map, the Royal Family of the Tianhai Empire and the Fan Family have had their eyes on me. It’s normal to be tracked.”

”What should we do? Are we going to make clothes for others?”

Joshua Long was anxious.

”Don’t worry, it’s better if they come. I’m hoping to recruit more martial artists. From what I’ve read in the annals, the Night People Tribe have a strong aversion to outsiders. With just our small group, it would indeed be difficult to deal with a powerful opponent.

But if a large number of martial artists are recruited, we can take advantage of the chaos. Just make sure to stick close to me. Understand?”

Ling Xiao reminded them.

”Turns out, Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor already had a plan. It seems I’ve been overthinking.”

Dan Feng chuckled.

The longer he stayed by Ling Xiao’s side, the more he realized how formidable and powerful Ling Xiao was.

It only made him admire Ling Xiao even more.

A shichen later, the altar was repaired, and Ling Xiao extracted as much as ten thousand Mid Grade Spirit Stones to pour into it.

Crack!

With the Mid Grade Spirit Stones inside, the Magic Array activated, and a thick beam of light pierced through the soil to the surface.

”See? This is how I recruit martial artists.”

Ling Xiao laughed, saying, ”Everyone is eyeing this Night People Tribe ruins. The martial artists of the Tianhai Empire must be watching this closely, but most don’t have the Secret Realm map, and those who do seem unable to decode its mysteries.

But they’ll definitely send people to monitor it.

Once this light is released, a lot of people will inevitably come.”

”Fools!”

A sudden roar came from above, and a figure flew down.

The person was a strong martial artist who had been trailing Ling Xiao, with a cultivation level reaching the twelfth level of the Yin-Yang realm, and was a notorious bandit outside Tianhai City.

Known as ”Mo Dao.”
