Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 1894: Chapter 1897: Mutation: Plane Vortex, Spatial Rift

Choosing to continue the treasure hunt might lead to a higher ranking, but it doesn’t hold much practical significance.

If he chooses to stay and cultivate, his cultivation level will definitely break through.

Not only that, but the Ancient Heavenly Demon Avatar will also become even stronger.

His choice was decisive and simple.

Because he really doesn’t care about the ranking; as long as he finishes cultivating, he can just pick up a few treasures randomly.

Having made his choice, he no longer paid attention to others.

Meanwhile, other martial artists were fiercely competing and fighting.

Mo Yu and Zhu Shao Cong, ultimately limited in strength, were forced to withdraw early from the assessment to save their lives.

They appeared on the stage in Surprise Thunder City.

However, they were not announced as eliminated. Morgan Lawless Heaven just let them stay there and rest. Whether they were eliminated depended on the final ranking.

Many martial artists, like them, were also eliminated.

The second battle, thanks to its design, greatly reduced the number of deaths.

But that doesn’t mean there were no casualties.

Some were too confident in themselves, could have chosen to escape, but insisted on fighting hard, only to be killed.

Either killed by other martial artists or by monsters guarding the treasures.

Of course, such people weren’t many; so far, there were only two.

While there were twenty-six who, like Mo Yu and Zhu Shao Cong, came out directly.

Including the two deceased, an estimated twenty-eight had no hope of ranking in the top ten.

A shichen passed!

Two shichens passed!

Ling Xiao still didn’t open his eyes, but the entire Netherworld Dark River was almost dried up.

The Yaksha Ghost Shadows in the dark river had long disappeared.

As for the Treasure Spiritual Tool sword, it still remained stuck at the riverbed.

Throughout this time, no one bothered Ling Xiao, which leaves one wondering if it was good luck or bad luck.

Actually, he didn’t know that many martial artists passed by, but upon seeing such a terrifying sight, dared not linger.

To say he was lucky, precisely because none of the thirteen top talents came by here.

With half an hour until the end of the second battle, Ling Xiao finally opened his eyes.

The entire Netherworld Dark River had dried up.

Ling Xiao’s cultivation level had broken through to the Yin-Yang Realm Fourteenfold.

Cultivation level wasn’t the main thing.

His Ancient Heavenly Demon Battle Intent has finally entered the second stage—Proficient.

Just like the proficiency with martial skills.

Battle Intent also progresses; apart from Small Success, Proficient, Great Success, Perfection, and Transcendental Realm, there are also Master and Grandmaster levels.

The same goes for Sword Intent.

Which is why people possessing Sword Intent gain different bonuses.

Each stage provides a tenfold increase.

The Ancient Heavenly Demon Battle Intent was tenfold in Small Success before, now it’s onefold in Proficient.

Once it ascends to the Grandmaster level, it can transform into a Martial Soul, a high-level Martial Soul that can directly undergo thunder and lightning tempering. If successful, it will ascend to a Divine Soul.

The Divine Soul is the legendary level that a Martial Soul can reach, even the old King of People didn’t achieve it.

So it remains a legend.

”Half an hour left. I wonder how many people are there still in the Ten Thousand Demons Tomb?”

Ling Xiao checked the time and planned to explore around.

As his cultivation improved, and his strength grew stronger, his self-protection abilities also became stronger.

Even if he encounters any of Phoenix Feiye, Tianhai Ba Tu, or Lei Lie, it’s no big deal.

Even though he might not be their match now, he won’t be easily defeated.

Just as Ling Xiao was stepping out of the dried-up Netherworld Dark River, preparing to head to the next treasure location.

Suddenly, a massive rift appeared deep in the Ten Thousand Demons Tomb.

Black with terrifying energy gushing out of the rift, like a constantly opening eye, with a horrifying energy vortex at its center.

As soon as the vortex appeared, a vast amount of energy seemed to be swept towards it.

For a time, both participants in the Ten Thousand Demons Tomb and martial artists outside it were astonished.

”What’s happening?”

Ling Xiao, keeping his Tai Chi Eye open, felt immense pressure from the terrifying black vortex in the distance.

It was as if it was pulling his gaze into it.

”Dimensional vortex? Spatial rift?”

Ling Xiao had heard of such things, but today was the second time he’d actually seen it, the first being after encountering the Night Demon King in the underground world.

That spatial rift connected to the world of the Heavenly Demons.

So where does this spatial rift in the Ten Thousand Demons Tomb lead?

”Let’s go have a look!”

Not only was Ling Xiao curious, but he was also extremely interested in the sudden appearance of the spatial rift.

He was convinced it wasn’t there for no reason; there must be something good inside.

In fact, it wasn’t just Ling Xiao.

All the martial artists still in the Ten Thousand Demons Tomb had seen or sensed the spatial rift and were flying towards it.

The curiosity of people is indeed quite similar in some ways.

Outside the Ten Thousand Demons Tomb, Morgan Lawless Heaven and the six referees were all shocked.

”Lord Lawless Heaven, this rift shouldn’t be part of the assessment, right?”

The Deputy Sect Master of the Zhengyi Sect asked.

Morgan Lawless Heaven nodded, saying, ”It’s rumored that a thousand years ago, the same kind of rift appeared, but disappeared soon after.

Inside the rift seems to be some kind of battlefield. A thousand years ago, the rift spewed extremely precious treasures, among them a Divine Spiritual Tool!”

”Divine Spiritual Tool!”

Upon hearing these four words, everyone was speechless.

On the White Tiger Continent, obtaining a Treasure Spiritual Tool was already remarkable.

And knowing that Treasure Spiritual Tools were for Reincarnation Realm martial artists, while Yin-Yang Realm martial artists couldn’t fully wield their power.

Flaubert: Simple, Treasure, Immortal, Divine!

Among Spiritual Tools, the Divine Grade is the top!

If such a thing really appears, the entire White Tiger Continent might become tumultuous.

”Shouldn’t we report to the Xuanwu Divine Hall and immediately stop the treasure hunt? The spatial rift is more important than this White Tiger Summit.”

The Imperial Advisor of the Tianhai Empire exclaimed.

”It’s not possible. Do you think we don’t want to? Do you think this treasure hunt is something we arranged at random? These are the rules and restrictions left by the King of People. Once the treasure hunt starts, no one can enter the Ten Thousand Demons Tomb.”

Morgan Lawless Heaven replied with a bitter smile, ”Unless someone has the power comparable to the King of People!”

”Could we really place our hopes of securing a Divine Spiritual Tool on those participating martial artists? Although they are all talented elites, their cultivation is still too weak.”

The crowd was quite speechless.

”Now we have no other choice. If someone manages to bring out a Divine Spiritual Tool, apart from the first one which must belong to the Xuanwu Divine Hall, any others will belong to the factions of those who retrieve them. What do you think?”

Morgan Lawless Heaven asked.
