Chapter 591: Chapter 497: Compare the Lineup (Part 1)

Nanyang Sect, on the top floor of the Law Storage Pavilion.

Shen Yi stood amidst the white fog, his mind replaying the moment when he personally slew the Baiyu Capital Fish Demon commander.

The panel could directly deduce Cultivation Techniques, yet it couldn’t compensate for combat experience.

Only after personally experiencing a sufficient number of techniques and deliberating on how to counter them could one truly be at ease.

In the moment when the Fish Demon penetrated the secret of Tianyan Forty-Nine and truly found the path to life, it was also the moment Shen Yi realized a truth: the spirit techniques capable of slaying Demons across great boundaries at the Return to Void Realm were still outstanding at the White Jade Capital level, but they ultimately had limits.

No matter how exquisite the technique, it still required a sufficient boundary to support it.

The perfected spirit technique, in terms of skillfulness, could be said to have no flaws, even baffling Elders Chi Yang and Liu Shiqian, indicating that even White Jade Capital Elders might not all be able to achieve such a refined level.

But as for the boundary...

When Shen Yi previously used the Wusheng Palm, he mainly relied on the Immortal Sword Body of the Divine Phoenix that was comparable to the twelfth layer of the Return to Void Realm.

With the dual enhancements of the Guixu Immortal Armor and Hongmeng Purple Qi, and in addition to the Azure Dragon Shattering Star Spear, he then had the qualifications to battle the Fish Demon.

The reason for his victory was that the Fish Demon had most of its energy drained by the Tianyan Forty-Nine and the Iron Command Token prior to their fight, leaving it extremely exhausted. Its state of mind was also greatly disturbed after finding the path to life and then discovering another person standing ahead.

Return to Void’s ninth layer was still too low.

If he had been at the same boundary as the Baiyu Capital, even without considering dao weapons, simply relying on what he currently mastered, there would be no need for so many troubles.

"Sigh."

Shen Yi exhaled a breath, feeling no need to regret these Town Stones.

As long as he could break through to the White Jade Capital, by then, Town Stones of strength similar to Wu Jun and the Fleshwing Silkworm wouldn’t be of much use anymore, and even if they were, it would be easier to collect them then.

[Remaining Demon lifespan: 463,000 years]

The life span provided by the Three-headed Snake Demon was already quite substantial, but indeed not quite enough.

For such powerful creatures, just reshaping a Demon Soul would consume at least more than twenty Demon Origins each.

Shen Yi didn’t bother to pick and choose, first reshaping the younger elephant-like and Fish Demon.

Barely able to muster the lifespan needed to condense the Town Stones.

[Remaining Demon lifespan: 2,300 years]

Two more Great Demons revived in Shen Yi’s forehead, though weaker than Wu Jun, they certainly could not be compared with ordinary Top-Quality Dao Pillars.

This meant he now had four Top-Quality Dao Pillars, and including the Three-headed Snake Demon, he was only one short.

Shen Yi pondered whether or not to make up the numbers with Ke Shisan, but ultimately discarded the idea.

Not to mention that he might need to cultivate other spirit techniques in the future, if he were to fail in forging his heavenly palace because of it, he would be full of regret.

Elder Xuan Qing had suffered greatly from this mistake in the past.

"Let’s think of another method."

Shen Yi stood up, not feeling too anxious.

Having just clashed with Elder Ke Si, with the latter being a Great Demon of the dragon offspring level, even if he mobilized his troops and focused on causing trouble for Shen Yi, it would be enough to make one’s head ache.

It would be better to take advantage of this time to heal and lay low for a while.

Since leaving the Nanyang Treasure Land, Shen Yi realized he had not had a proper rest.

He looked around and then strode towards the old man, sitting down across from him decisively.

Shen Yi was eager to know whether the "remnant soul" left behind by the other was simply made from the manifestations of many Cultivation Techniques, or if there was anything else left behind for Elder Xuan Qing.

With this thought, he subconsciously scrutinized the figure before him.

"Xuan Qing..."

The old man’s repeatedly uttered words suddenly became suspended for a brief moment as their gazes met.

"Old thief!"

In just an instant of unease, an instinctive impulse made Shen Yi want to sweep away to the rear!

The somewhat sparse Hongmeng Purple Qi and the Guixu Immortal Armor were instantly fortified around his body, the Dragon Lance also quietly fell into his palm, and the roar of the dragon instantly exploded within the white fog!

However, Shen Yi’s formidable physique that could slay the Baiyu Capital Fish Demon seemed to fall into the old man’s turbid eyes.

No matter how he spurred the dragon to leap to the heavens, no matter how far he surged away, those eyes always seemed close at hand.

And they kept getting closer, until they completely swallowed Shen Yi.

"..."

"..."

From the moment of his transmigration, Shen Yi had never experienced such a feeling of powerlessness, not even thinking about what to do, as his consciousness gradually grew dull.

He felt enveloped by mud, slowly being sealed off eyes, nose, and mouth.

Were these the methods of a Union Dao Realm colossus?

Even though the other had been dead for a full hundred thousand years?!

It wasn’t until a familiar voice entered his eardrums that Shen Yi’s muddled mind suddenly cleared up.

"Xuan Qing, you’ve come?"

"Come in."

Hearing these words, Shen Yi slowly opened his eyes, only to see before him the familiar Ancestral Master Hall, dimly lit by the night, and looking somewhat dark.

His legs moved uncontrollably into the hall, walking up to the Ancestral Master statue and respectfully performing a salute, a voice not his own coming from his mouth.

"Disciple is leaving and has come to bid farewell to Master."

Shen Yi watched as his hands came together, yet his mind suddenly steeled.

This was not the possession or reincarnation he had imagined.

This body clearly belonged to someone else... and most likely it was Xuan Qing’s.

In the face of techniques left by a Union Dao Realm cultivator, Shen Yi truly had no way to respond and could only settle down to silently observe.
