Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 1893: Chapter 1896: Netherworld Dark River, Yaksha Ghost Shadows

When Ling Xiao unleashed the Tyrant Sky Martial Soul, the replica opposite him showed no reaction.

This made Ling Xiao smile slightly.

”Just as expected, the Tyrant Sky Martial Soul is too unique. Even this replication magic array can’t copy it.”

He swung his fist, ready to strike down the replica, but suddenly halted.

”What’s the point in killing him? I’d rather mess with the Xuanwu Divine Hall a bit.”

Ling Xiao could almost confirm these replicas were certainly created by the Xuanwu Divine Hall to gather data, and even if killed, they may not be completely destroyed.

Even though the opponent couldn’t replicate his Tyrant Sky Martial Soul, he still didn’t want to expose too much.

Anyway, he had a way.

”Nine Demonic Divine Arts: Yin-Yang Demon King!”

Ling Xiao smiled faintly, his body began to rapidly change, not only his appearance but even his aura and martial arts fully transformed.

As his body changed, the replica began to change in the same way.

”Hehe, that does the trick.”

Ling Xiao chuckled, then struck with a punch, obliterating the replica.

Other participating martial artists encountered situations similar to Ling Xiao.

However, everyone’s choices differed.

Except for a few who sensed the Xuanwu Divine Hall’s scheme and made some clever designs.

Just like Ling Xiao, the approaches differed but had the same marvelous effect.

The rest were laboriously fighting the replicas.

Ling Xiao now had a feeling.

The most prestigious White Tiger Summit on the White Tiger Continent seemed more like a selection assessment for disciples by the Xuanwu Divine Hall.

The first battle examined talent and insight.

The second battle tested wisdom while probing the participating martial artists.

The third battle was a true ranking duel.

Though he wasn’t interested in joining the Xuanwu Divine Hall, he had to admire the Xuanwu Divine Hall’s three battle assessments; they were indeed very interesting.

The first battle could be passed with talent and insight.

The second battle required wisdom.

Pure combat skills, on the other hand, may not always succeed.

”Great, I, Ling Xiao, will pit my wits against your Xuanwu Divine Hall, enhancing myself within your rules!”

Ling Xiao smiled faintly, turned, and left, heading towards the location of the next treasure.

”Sure enough, good things are never easy to obtain.”

The second treasure was a magical treasure, a high-quality spiritual artifact-level treasure sword. Although he couldn’t use it, he could sell it or gift it.

The key high-quality spiritual artifact-level treasure sword would likely gain substantial results, and he might even secure a top position in the second battle.

However, to seize this high-quality spiritual artifact-level treasure sword, he first had to traverse a terrifying Netherworld Dark River.

Within the Netherworld Dark River, corpses were everywhere.

These bones were weathered, their flesh long since corroded.

Within the Netherworld, terrifying black shadows constantly emerged, exuding powerful awareness and battle spirit.

”Yin-Yang Realm Fourteenfold Yaksha Ghost Shadows? Although not real Heavenly Demon Yaksha, these Ghost Shadows are not easy to handle, and there are so many of them.”

Ling Xiao muttered to himself, but his face showed no hint of difficulty.

For others, the Netherworld Dark River might be highly challenging, but for him, it posed no difficulty.

He grinned confidently, then strode into the Netherworld Dark River.

The high-quality spiritual artifact-level treasure sword lay at the riverbed; it was hard to acquire without entering the water.

As he stepped into the dark river, a piercing chill instantaneously spread throughout his body.

Terrifying, evil energy infiltrated his body, attempting to control his form and corrode his flesh.

”Such insignificant Netherworld’s evil aura, Yaksha Ghost Shadows, dare to harm me?”

Ling Xiao chuckled coldly and instantly entered the Ancient Heavenly Demon Avatar.

The battle intent of the Ancient Heavenly Demon was unleashed, causing the Yaksha Ghost Shadows to tremble, as if faced with their superior.

Ling Xiao chuckled coldly, the demonic annihilation aura of the Ancient Heavenly Demon Avatar circulated, as the demonic annihilation aura of the Netherworld Dark River began to flow into his body, continually enhancing his form.

At this moment, Ling Xiao was not in a hurry to obtain the treasure sword. What fascinated him more was the immense energy contained within the Netherworld Dark River.

Cultivating here would indeed be highly beneficial for him in condensing the Ancient Heavenly Demon into a Martial Soul.

Simultaneously, it could significantly enhance his cultivation level, perhaps even breaking through to the Yin-Yang Realm Fourteenfold.

After all, he wasn’t particularly concerned about placing; as long as he wasn’t eliminated, it was fine.

”Devour!”

Ling Xiao roared coldly, the Ancient Heavenly Demon opened its mouth and began to absorb aggressively.

The energy within the Netherworld Dark River continuously flowed into the giant mouth, beginning to transform, refine, and integrate into his body and meridians.

”How bold!”

A terrifying voice echoed from the Netherworld Dark River.

”King of Yaksha Ghost Shadows!”

Ling Xiao squinted towards the enormous figure.

It was larger than any of the Yaksha Ghost Shadows and its strength was estimated to be around the Yin-Yang Realm Sixteenfold.

Under the lead of the King of Yaksha Ghost Shadows, the previously frightened Yakshas regained their courage and pounced at Ling Xiao, attempting to kill him.

They absolutely wouldn’t allow him to continue devouring the energy of the Netherworld Dark River.

”Kill!”

Ling Xiao smiled coldly, the King of Yaksha Ghost Shadows at Yin-Yang Realm Sixteenfold was no threat before him.

After all, it was merely a ghost shadow.

Moreover, it was firmly restrained by his Sky Demon Battle Intent; it was inferior to ordinary Yin-Yang Realm Sixteenfold martial artists.

Compared to genius-level Yin-Yang Realm Sixteenfold martial artists, it couldn’t even compare.

The claws of the Ancient Heavenly Demon swung out.

Sky Demon Claw!

Boom!

The King of Yaksha Ghost Shadows desperately attempted to block the Sky Demon Claw, but was still crushed flat by the massive claw.

”Dragon Talisman: Hell Dragon Fire!”

Then, a Blood Soul Talisman flew out from above Ling Xiao’s head, spat out purple-black flames, and subsequently incinerated the King of Yaksha Ghost Shadows into ashes.

”Eighteen Hells Talisman: Tongue-ripping Hell!”

Subsequently, another Blood Soul Talisman flew out, extending countless ghostly hands that swept the remaining Yaksha Ghost Shadows inside.

The Dragon Talisman possessed dragon attributes, destined to become the most powerful Dragon Clan Blood Soul Talisman.

The Eighteen Hells Talisman, crafted by Ling Xiao based on the Eighteen layers of Hell in the Yin-Yang Realm, was destined to become the world’s most evil and terrifying dark Blood Soul Talisman.

The Yaksha Ghost Shadows were extremely useful in enhancing the power of the Eighteen Hells Talisman.

The terrified Yaksha Ghost Shadows began to scatter in all directions.

However, the Eighteen Hells Talisman grew larger with the wind, instantly enveloping the entire Netherworld Dark River.

Originally meant to guard the high-quality spiritual artifact treasure sword, the Yaksha Ghost Shadows completely became fuel for Ling Xiao.

He felt that the bottleneck of his cultivation level was opening once again, indicating imminent breakthrough.

”Continue diligent cultivation, as for those treasures, if anyone desires them, let them take them.”

Ling Xiao now had two choices: either continue to gather treasures or stay here and cultivate, fully merging the entire Netherworld Dark River into his body.

But his choice was clear-cut.
