Chapter 407: Chapter 214: After 1000 Years, Hearing an Old Acquaintance’s Name Again
RUMBLE!
The ground for a thousand miles around began to tremble violently.
Like a colossal mountain, the sky-blotting hand slammed down, suppressing the White Bone Daoist beneath it.
The White Bone Daoist had almost no power to resist; his physical body shattered, turning to dust.
His Divine Soul flew out from the remains, attempting to tear through the void and flee.
However, he was shocked to find that he couldn’t seem to escape the giant, sky-blotting hand no matter how he tried.
’This is... an Original Divine Technique...’
The White Bone Daoist’s face was a mask of terror as he shrieked:
"My master is the Sect Leader of the Withered Bone Sect! If you dare kill me, he will know instantly."
"He is a Quasi-Saint, the lord of the Ten Directions Jungle in the Cang Mang Domain! If you kill me, he will hunt you to the ends of the earth!"
A playful look appeared in Wang Xiao’s eyes. "And if I don’t kill you, you think he won’t kill me?"
He said no more. With a beckoning motion, he drew the White Bone Daoist’s Divine Soul into his hand and immediately performed a Soul Search.
「A moment later.」
With a slight squeeze of his palm, the White Bone Daoist’s soul was utterly annihilated.
Through the Soul Search, he had learned a great deal of information that his analysis hadn’t revealed.
Analyzing a person could only reveal information about their life story and so on.
To understand detailed information, such as Cultivation Techniques, legacies, and the like, one had to resort to methods like Soul Search.
’Beneath the Fengluo Dao are seventy-two domains. The Daoist Lord of the Fengluo Dao, Fengluo himself, presides over the Fengluo Domain. He achieved Sainthood one hundred thousand years ago, and his strength ranks in the top ten among the Thirty-Six Daoist Lords.’
Wang Xiao beckoned with his hand again, and a White Bone Banner flew into his grasp.
This White Bone Banner’s grade was second only to Curiosities, placing it in the ranks of Supreme Treasures.
It was the White Bone Daoist’s Lifebound Magical Treasure.
Most importantly, it contained one hundred thousand White Bone Ghost Souls, with the weakest being at the Third Layer of Dao Entry.
The strongest had even reached the level of a Pseudo-Immortal!
If he could refine these one hundred thousand White Bone Ghost Souls, he could at least attain the strength of an ordinary Quasi-Saint.
A Quasi-Saint in this world was equivalent in strength to a Tier Six Life that had opened a Grotto Heaven.
However, they didn’t have a Grotto Heaven within their bodies, only a Divine Techniques Golden Core.
A Divine Techniques Golden Core was formed by comprehending six Divine Techniques, including one Original Divine Technique, and then merging them into one.
Afterward, by relying on the Divine Techniques Golden Core to perform Dream Traveling in the Void and pluck a Life Seed, one could be considered to have become a Saint!
This so-called Life Seed seemed to be a special kind of power that existed within Heaven and Earth.
Only those who had condensed a Divine Techniques Golden Core and then performed Dream Traveling in the Void could pluck one.
The White Bone Daoist didn’t know the specific details of how to do it.
After all—this was a secret only Quasi-Saints could access.
’A Saint is equivalent to a Tier Seven Life, so this Life Seed must be a substitute for a planetary consciousness, becoming a new method for people to break through to Tier Seven Life,’ Wang Xiao mused.
He knew the Cosmos was vast and boundless.
Among countless starry skies, there was surely more than one Cultivation Technique.
The Cultivation Technique in each starry sky was almost always aligned with the characteristics of that particular region of space.
However, Wang Xiao felt that once his strength was restored, he could investigate just what this Life Seed was.
It might even be helpful for his Cultivation.
"Let’s go."
Wang Xiao stored the White Bone Banner in his Grotto Heaven.
Next, he planned to refine the White Bone Banner directly.
Then, he would be able to control the one hundred thousand White Bone Ghost Souls inside, letting them hunt all the evil spirits in Zhushan County, and even all of Yun Cang Prefecture, on their own.
Once the White Bone Banner reached its limit, he would refine the Yin Souls within it directly.
His strength wouldn’t be fully restored, but he could at least recover most of it.
"Yes."
Yun Yin and Xuan Qing glanced at each other, utterly bewildered.
A-a True Immortal was dealt with so effortlessly?!
Before, Wang Xiao had only been dealing with evil spirits, so they didn’t have a direct sense of his true power.
Now, seeing Wang Xiao eliminate a True Immortal with a mere turn of his hand, they finally understood his terrifying might!
One had to understand that their Cyan Cloud Temple, even at its peak, only had three or four True Immortals.
Yun Yin spoke with some trepidation:
"S-Senior, that White Bone Daoist was the disciple of the Extreme Yin Ascendant, the Sect Leader of the Withered Bone Sect. Now that you’ve killed him, the Extreme Yin Ascendant has probably already sensed it. The Withered Bone Sect’s Thousand-Mile Soul Locking Technique is unparalleled at tracking people down!"
Although he knew Wang Xiao was powerful, the Extreme Yin Ascendant was a Quasi-Saint, after all.
He was also the lord of the Ten Directions Jungle in the Cang Mang Domain and could rally most of the Sects.
If a real fight broke out, he feared Wang Xiao wouldn’t be able to withstand it!
Wang Xiao’s tone was calm. "Don’t worry. The Withered Bone Sect is tens of billions of miles from here. Even if the Extreme Yin Ascendant came himself, it would take him several years. Heh, by then, even if he doesn’t come for me, I will go looking for him!"
With his current strength, he still couldn’t contend with a Quasi-Saint.
But in a few years, when he had recovered most of his strength, a Quasi-Saint would be nothing to him.
Then, even if the Extreme Yin Ascendant didn’t come looking for him, he would have to seek out the Extreme Yin Ascendant to learn about the secrets of this world.
And more information about the Fengluo Daoist Lord.
His goal had never been a mere domain, or even the Fengluo Dao itself!
It was a higher level!
Everything he was doing now was merely a stepping stone for his breakthrough to become a Tier Eight Life.
Of course, there was no need to explain these things to Yun Yin and his disciple.
「Before long.」
Wang Xiao followed Yun Yin to the Cyan Cloud Temple.
The Cyan Cloud Temple was located halfway up a mountain, covering only about a hundred square meters with just a few sparse courtyards.
