At the entrance to the underground palace.
"The Nine Nether Blood Sea Array... a Life Soul Pool?!"
Disbelief and suspicion filled He Muyun’s beautiful eyes as she spoke, finding it hard to believe.
"How could you possibly know about sothing like this, Mr. Su?"
After all, the Nine Nether Blood Sea Array was the very foundation upon which Weiyuan Immortal City was built!
Under such circumstances, the location of the Life Soul Pool was an absolute top secret in Weiyuan Immortal City!
He Muyun pondered.
’This kind of secret... I doubt even all of Canghai’s disciples know about it.’
’Su Ye... how is that possible?’
"Is it that hard?"
Su Ye’s posture was relaxed as he returned the question with a slight smile.
It was easier said than done, however.
In reality, Su Ye had expended an imnse amount of energy to find the location of the Life Soul Pool.
He had relied on his intelligence network in the mortal world, as well as his own observations, to roughly identify several possible locations.
After all, the construction of a Life Soul Pool had strict requirents regarding geography, Spirit Veins, feng shui, and many other factors.
But even so, Su Ye had found it difficult to pinpoint the exact location of the Life Soul Pool.
Fortunately, by a stroke of luck, the recent nightti Beast Tide assault had provided him with a favorable opportunity!
After repelling the Beast Tide, Su Ye had keenly noticed sothing.
The Immortal City’s first reaction was, surprisingly, to dispatch troops toward the harbor and a few other locations!
With one Spiritual Power Pool having exploded, they naturally had to reinforce the defenses of the other Spiritual Power Pools, as well as the Life Soul Pool.
And as it happened, the harbor was one of the locations Su Ye had identified!
He carefully investigated, using the soul-sensing power of his [Soul-Chasing, Life-Reaping] technique.
Finally, he locked onto this underground palace!
But the details of this process were not for outsiders to know...
Dressed in a black robe, Su Ye smiled faintly, as if everything was under his control.
"This guy..."
He Muyun stared at Su Ye’s face, lightly biting her lower lip.
The information the sect had on Su Ye was rely the tip of the iceberg compared to what she had experienced firsthand!
’Divine Sense comparable to the Crystal Realm... he must have so kind of soul cultivation technique...’
’Circulation Magical Power that’s one in a billion, with terrifying potential...’
’Knowledge of the Life Soul Pool’s location, which is a top secret...’
’And... he has these monstrous crewn serving him...’
He Muyun murmured to herself.
She cast a wary glance at the cursed crewn standing around with their numb expressions.
Su Ye’s explanation for these cursed crewn was that they practiced a special Body Refining Technique.
But this excuse didn’t fool her at all.
But that raised a question.
How did Su Ye get these bizarre, inhuman crewn to work for him?
He Muyun was baffled, her expression complex.
She only felt that the fog of mystery surrounding Su Ye was growing denser and more obscure.
’This guy...’
...
THUD.
A muffled sound.
The incredibly heavy stone door, sealed with talismans, swung open with a RUMBLE!
Su Ye and his group stepped into the depths of the underground palace.
HISS!
An almost tangible, bone-chilling aura suddenly erged.
Countless transparent white figures, stained with blood and wearing ferocious expressions, appeared in the darkness.
Su Ye knew these transparent white figures were not life souls.
They were illusions born over a great length of ti from the perating yin energy of the Life Soul Pool!
Weiyuan Immortal City had not eliminated them.
Instead, they were used as a defensive asure!
Even a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, if caught off guard by an attack from these white figures, would risk having their sea of consciousness shattered and their awareness obliterated—a fatal danger!
Unfortunately for them, the intruders at this mont were Su Ye and He Muyun, both legitimate Tier 3 combatants. Moreover, they cultivated soul techniques, and their Divine Sense was resilient.
In their eyes, the attacks of the transparent figures were no more than a gentle breeze brushing their faces.
As for the cursed crewn...
These inhuman beings had no souls of their own, their existence completely dependent on the Ghostly Flood Dragon.
The consciousness of a cursed crewman was an artificial construct, a replica molded by the Ghostly Flood Dragon using their pre-death mories as a blueprint.
To them, Divine Sense attacks were even more trivial.
Su Ye waved his hand, and a surge of Divine Sense power scattered the white figures, allowing them to press forward.
The defenses within this underground palace were tight.
There were more than ten restrictive arrays, as well as chanical traps.
However, most of these restrictions and traps were designed for detection and alarm purposes.
Their own killing power was only at the level of Foundation Establishnt Perfection.
Their detection capabilities, however, were outstanding!
According to Su Ye’s estimates and He Muyun’s feedback, even a Late-stage Crystal or Crystal Perfection cultivator would find it impossible to sneak in here without a sound.
However...
"So what if the alarms go off?"
"Is anyone coming?" Su Ye jeered with a smile, completely unconcerned.
Under normal circumstances, after an alarm was triggered, the city’s Crystal Realm masters would have already rushed here in a panic with dozens of Foundation Establishnt cultivators to surround the place completely.
With the aid of the array’s power, even a Crystal Perfection expert... would likely be defeated and perish here with regret...
Let alone Su Ye.
But now?
Nothing happened.
Weiyuan Immortal City was in chaos.
The cultivators in charge of the alarms were nowhere to be found.
The alarms blared for a long ti, making Su Ye’s ears ache, but not even a dog showed up...
Well, that wasn’t entirely true.
The piercing alarms had attracted many demonic beasts.
Among them was a pack of Sea Wolves, which... could barely count as dogs, right?
BOOM.
Su Ye channeled his Magical Power, continuously breaking through arrays and chanisms.
Finally, they arrived at the deepest part of the underground palace.
The Life Soul Pool!
SLOSH!
Like a lake, the jet-black Life Soul Pool—as deep as ink and as viscous as blood—spread its boundless yin energy!
This Life Soul Pool had accumulated tens of millions of extrely high-quality life souls from the Nine Nether Blood Sea Array, refined by the great array itself!
"Haaa..."
"Finally... I’ve made it here!"
Su Ye’s expression was calm, but a fire seed to be burning in his eyes!
Tens of millions of life souls!
In his eyes, these tens of millions of life souls were the most valuable things in all of Weiyuan Immortal City!
Those so-called Crystal Spiritual Objects, Azure Sea Dragon Scale Wood, Profound Origin Spirit Iron...
...all paled in comparison to this quantity of life souls!
"Tens of millions of life souls..." Su Ye couldn’t help but look expectant.
By devouring this Life Soul Pool, even just a part of it, the Ghostly Flood Dragon could easily step into Tier 3!
And if it devoured all of them, with tens of millions of life souls, the Ghostly Flood Dragon’s power and grade would surely take a quantum leap!
"A Tier 4 spirit ship?" Su Ye raised an eyebrow and chuckled.
"I’m not counting on that..."
After all, the Nine Nether Blood Sea Array itself was only a quasi-Tier 4 array. How could it push the Ghostly Flood Dragon to beco a Tier 4 spirit ship?
Not very likely.
"But... a quasi-Tier 4 spirit ship is definitely possible!"
A quasi-Tier 4 spirit ship!
If the Ghostly Flood Dragon reached the quasi-Tier 4 level, the benefits to him would be imasurable!
In the Crystal Realm, all bottlenecks would vanish!
The only thing standing in his way would be the Golden Core Tribulation!
However, with the Defense Power of a quasi-Tier 4 spirit ship, combined with his Body Refining realm, the Thunder Tribulation would be simple and easy.
As for the Heart Demon Tribulation...
Thanks to the white whale that contributed its Whale Brain Oil.
With the Heart Guarding and Spirit Stabilizing Candle, it wouldn’t be too difficult either!
"In other words, as long as I can get a quasi-Tier 4 spirit ship, my cultivation in the Crystal Stage will be a smooth road ahead!"
Su Ye’s eyes shone.
Filled with anticipation, he ordered his many cursed crewn to step forward and prepare to absorb the life souls.
As parts of the Ghostly Flood Dragon, the life souls they absorbed could be transferred to the spirit ship within a certain distance!
And now, at Su Ye’s signal, the nurous cursed crewn he had brought with him walked toward the Life Soul Pool.
CRACK. CRUNCH.
The bodies of the cursed crewn transford into their inhuman Cursed Form.
Then, they rged, and with the sound of twisting bone and flesh, they beca a single, writhing, twisting mass of crimson flesh!
The flesh mimicked a new form, extending long, slender tentacles like pipes into the Life Soul Pool!
Like a water pump, it began to suck up the countless life souls stored within.
"What is that thing?" He Muyun was horrified.
"Relax. Think about it... they don’t even ask for a salary. How could they be bad people?"
"You can’t just discriminate against my crewn because they look a little strange..."
Su Ye shrugged.
He summoned the ship’s panel, where the number of life souls in the Soul Abyss Blood Prison was skyrocketing!
