'Hm? A remnant soul still lingers?'
Killing intent surged from Yang Xiao.
He had activated his Fire Control Skill and, with his Observing Micro High Level Spiritual Power, probed directly into the Qi Sea of Yan Kuan, the Great Elder of dicine King Valley. He'd taken control of the Crimson Sun True Gang within the elder's body, causing him to explode.
He had thought the man was dead for sure.
He never expected that the man would leave a remnant soul behind.
A cruel smile instantly spread across his face.
"This works out. You wanted to search my soul, didn't you? Well then, it's an eye for an eye! Now I'll let you have a taste of the agony of Soul Refining!"
Yang Xiao let out a cold laugh and made a sudden gesture toward the empty space before him.
A keen-eyed observer would have noticed him rapidly forming several strange hand seals. Then, a wave of Vibration shook the empty air.
It forced an illusory, insubstantial figure into view.
Upon closer inspection, it was none other than Yan Kuan.
"You… How do you know the Soul Shaking Skill?"
Terror was written all over Yan Kuan's face.
His fear of Yang Xiao had clearly reached its peak.
"You're just a re Wandering Soul, not even qualified to be a Fierce Spirit. I really overestimated you. Perfect. This is a good chance to test the Soul-annihilating Power of the True Greater Yang Fire."
With a grasping motion of his hand, Yang Xiao seized Yan Kuan's remnant soul.
Imdiately after, a wisp of crystalline fla flickered to life on his palm.
It was none other than the True Greater Yang Fire.
SIZZLE!
The mont the True Greater Yang Fire touched Yan Kuan's remnant soul, it was like water hitting hot oil, instantly erupting with a sizzling sound.
This was accompanied by Yan Kuan's agonized wails.
And wisps of green smoke.
Each wisp of green smoke was a piece of Yan Kuan's soul being burned away.
The pain was so intense that even with his resolute will, he could not bear it.
"No, don't do this to ! I was wrong! Please, let go! Spare my life!"
"So now you know how to beg for rcy? When you were coming after , why didn't you consider sparing my life? If I were just an ordinary young man, I would have already died at your hands."
Yang Xiao was contemptuous.
He showed no rcy.
He even deliberately controlled the True Greater Yang Fire, careful not to let the True Fla burn Yan Kuan's remnant soul away too quickly.
He wanted to inflict the greatest possible pain.
'This bastard used my own father to threaten .'
'Death is too good for him.'
'The fact that he could form a Wandering Soul ans he must have cultivated a Soul Refining Secret Skill. Combined with what he said earlier about wanting to search my soul...'
'...it's obvious he's used this Secret Skill to harm many others.'
How could Yang Xiao possibly show him rcy?
'If I had never crossed paths with you, I would have remained ignorant, and that would have been the end of it. But now that I know, and you were still foolish enough to attack , how could I possibly let you go?'
Yang Xiao snorted coldly to himself.
He refined Yan Kuan's soul, bit by painful bit.
Only by doing this...
...could he quell the rage in his heart.
As for Yan Kuan, after realizing his pleas were useless, he stopped begging. This was especially true after half of his soul had been burned away.
The expression on his face was no longer just one of pain.
It was now filled with resentnt.
"Yang Xiao, you are vicious! I curse you! May you die a horrible death!"
After Yan Kuan finished speaking,
BANG!
He exploded.
'This guy could even self-destruct his soul? I let him off too easy.'
Yang Xiao was startled for a mont.
But he quickly recovered.
He muttered coldly.
His gaze, however, turned toward the distance.
That was the area where the Inner Core Disciples of dicine King Valley resided.
At that mont, Yang Xiao was still unaware that Qin Yan had already been promoted to a True Disciple.
So, he still thought she was there.
With a flash, his figure swooped down toward Celestial Extremity Peak.
But just then, an intense sense of crisis washed over him.
His heart seized.
He instinctively dropped and rolled.
BANG!
A massive boom rang out.
Yang Xiao saw a solid Palm Seal strike the ground where he had just been.
It blasted a huge crater into the earth.
If he hadn't rolled just now, that palm would have struck him directly.
And his body, not yet tempered by the True Greater Yang Fire, would likely have been smashed into a pulp.
But before his shock could subside...
...his expression changed once more.
Because Yang Xiao saw the Palm Seal that had just struck the ground rise again.
It was incredibly agile.
It shot toward Yang Xiao.
This ti, Yang Xiao was certain.
'It's a Martial Saint! Only a Martial Saint would have such an ability.'
'To kill from over a hundred li away...'
'...and to be able to redirect their True Gang Power after a missed strike.'
'...as if they were right in front of you.'
Facing such an attack, Yang Xiao knew that even if he used every ans at his disposal to shatter this True Gang Hand Seal, it would be pointless.
A second palm would just follow.
And then a third.
Besides, with his current strength, he wasn't even sure he could shatter the True Gang Hand Seal to begin with.
After all, this was an attack launched by a Martial Saint.
It was infused with their True Martial Intent.
This was nothing like the attack of a Half-Step Martial Saint like Yan Kuan.
His power had only reached the quality of the True Gang level.
It wasn't infused with his own True Martial Intent.
It was just this tiny difference.
But it made a world of difference in terms of power.
It was like comparing an armor-piercing round to a common iron pellet used by a hunter.
Both were bullets, but their lethality was worlds apart.
Yang Xiao had been able to defeat Yan Kuan.
He had relied on his True Greater Yang Fire.
It was his unique Talent Ability.
But now, it was useless.
So, all Yang Xiao could do was run.
Run for his life.
At the sa ti, he unleashed his Spiritual Power to its full extent.
He was desperately searching for any chance of survival.
Fortunately, the Martial Saint attacking him seed to be quite a distance away.
The distance affected their aim.
Yang Xiao managed to dodge the attack several tis.
Seizing an opportunity,
he activated the Profound Feather Divine Technique.
Instantly, a pair of crystalline wings nearly sixty zhang long materialized on his back.
With a WHOOSH,
he shot forward sixty li.
After a few more flaps of his wings,
he had covered a full three hundred li.
Only then did he temporarily break free from the Martial Saint's lock-on.
Yang Xiao let out a sigh of relief.
He glanced back toward dicine King Valley in the distance.
A deep sense of indignation welled up in Yang Xiao's heart.
And resentnt.
'To think I was forced into this corner by a re Mortal.'
'Even if he is at the Peak of the Mortal realm.'
'An Extraordinary existence.'
'Strictly speaking, he can no longer be considered a true Mortal.'
But Yang Xiao still couldn't accept it.
He, the magnificent Supre Divine King, was cultivating anew in this life, yet he had been hunted like a dog and nearly killed by a Mortal. How could he possibly stomach this humiliation?
'How terribly similar this is to what happened on Fla Sun Mountain.'
'Back then, it was Xuan Tianzhan.'
'My strength was pitiful then.'
'So it was understandable.'
'I just have to kill Xuan Tianzhan in the future, and that will be that.'
'But now, I've already condensed the True Greater Yang Fire.'
'My power is over a thousand tis greater than it was back then.'
'And yet, I still ended up in this miserable state.'
How could Yang Xiao possibly accept this?
'dicine King Valley, is it? A Martial Saint? Just you wait. Once I've tempered my physical form and mastered the basic Indestructible Golden Body, I'd like to see if you can still hunt like a dog without even showing your true self!'
Yang Xiao snorted coldly.
He then sought out a hidden place.
He was going into seclusion.
He would master the Basic Chapter of the Nine Yang Celestial Skill.
And temper his physical form.
By then, his physical body's durability would increase dozens, or even a hundredfold.
Would he still need to fear that Martial Saint?
'And that Ancient Spirit dicine... I must have it.'
Yang Xiao roared in his heart.
Originally, after harvesting so many Spirit dicines and still coveting the dicine King of dicine King Valley, Yang Xiao had felt a sliver of guilt.
But now?
Even a Martial Saint had made a move against him.
What was there to feel guilty about?
Yang Xiao wouldn't rest until he had turned their world completely upside down!
