Up until now, the Soul Venerable had no intention of hiding anymore and spoke slowly, "For a long ti, I didn't think there was any good in a strong physical body.
Aren't our Heart Demon Clan's Primordial Spirits also not weak? Don't your Sword Immortals also cut across realms without cultivating their physical bodies?"
"But as the Azure Dragon beca stronger, and I felt that almost invincible power of the physical body clearly, my thoughts gradually changed."
"Why does our Heart Demon Clan hide the secret of Soul Mastery?
Is it not because our true bodies are too frail, a weakness!"
"If the secret of our clan's Soul Mastery were leaked, we'd be attacked directly at our true bodies like this ti, bypassing the Soul Split."
"So, no matter how strong the Soul Split is, our true bodies can only hide like mice in the gutters, not daring to show themselves."
"Everyone fears death, and so do I."
"Later, I thought, if my true body could have an unparalleled physical body like the Azure Dragon, what would I have to fear in this world?"
"Sadly, this is just a fantasy after all, because so things are destined from birth, flowing in our bloodline, unchangeable.
Heart Demons, no matter how they cultivate, could never develop a physical body as strong as the Azure Dragon."
"Until another three thousand years later, when I discovered the Techniques created by the Yu Venerable to hide his true body within the mountain spirits of the Soul Split, a spark of inspiration struck ."
At this point, the Azure Dragon Sovereign's face turned rosy, showing he was extrely proud, "Yu Venerable did this to rge the two into one, making the flesh of the Soul Split the armor of the true body. Couldn't I draw so inspiration from his idea?"
"I kept pondering, wanting to improve, to create a truly flawless Dharma."
"So, you created a Dharma that breaks free from the constraints of the true body?" Xie Qingyun asked.
The Azure Dragon Sovereign shook his head, "It's not that simple; Soul Mastery is a Bloodline Divine Ability, a gift from the heavens, and its limits have never been overco."
He paused, his smile turning sinister.
"But, the thod of Spirit Possession from your Human Race gave the most crucial inspiration."
"I possessed myself."
"The Azure Dragon was too strong, and by the rules of Spirit Possession, the target must be weaker than oneself, so possession should have been impossible.
However, the Azure Dragon is also my Soul Split, from the sa source, making it all possible."
The Soul Venerable didn't detail how arduous and perilous the process was, but simply revealed the final result: "I succeeded, so from then on, the Azure Dragon beca my true body, and my true body beca my Soul Split."
No wonder.
Everything beca clear.
The Soul Venerable's true body, which Xie Qingyun struggled to kill, was actually just a Soul Split of the Soul Venerable, hence the Azure Dragon and Azure Dragon Sovereign could coexist peacefully.
Therefore, when Xie Qingyun appeared in the Fuxin Mountains, the White Tiger Sovereign could learn of it through the true body's departure soul at the first opportunity, while the Azure Dragon and Azure Dragon Sovereign knew nothing of it.
"Remarkable." Xie Qingyun was silent for a long ti, then sincerely praised.
"From then on, my sole weakness vanished into thin air, and I was invincible." The Azure Dragon Sovereign said with a cold smile.
"Finished asking? Then it's my turn." He looked at the sword in Xie Qingyun's hand and grinned cruelly, "My questions will be much simpler than yours."
"First, how did you co to know the secret of my Heart Demon Clan's Soul Split?"
"You should ask your sacred beast," Xie Qingyun said "earnestly," without revealing Lu Qingshan, but went straight to the core.
"It was it?" The Azure Dragon Sovereign frowned, full of malice, "Indeed, those not of our race must have different intentions."
"Is Ancestral Daoist Xia still alive?"
"I don't know." Xie Qingyun shook his head.
This answer was within the Soul Venerable's expectations, so he didn't doubt Xie Qingyun's honesty.
He continued to ask, "That sword you used to reverse the Fuxin Mountains, slaying Yu Venerable's true body and my Soul Split was too powerful. Even for you, it couldn't have been easy to perform.
So, are you seriously injured?"
"Yes." Xie Qingyun nodded.
"So little ti has passed; your injuries should not have fully recovered yet?"
"Not even fifty percent." Xie Qingyun answered candidly.
"Do you still have confidence to win against ?" The Azure Dragon Sovereign asked again.
"Yes."
"One last question," The Azure Dragon Sovereign glanced towards Dragon City Pass, then looked back at Xie Qingyun and said, "Why?"
"When I draw my sword, you'll know."
