Chapter 405: Ghost Fire Martial Soul
“Hahaha, this kid is amazing. He has already disturbed Hei Suo’s mind before the fight. Now, this seat truly believes that he completed the task by himself. And it’s even possible that he killed the Plague Demon King, rather than the Plague Demon King running away.”
Golden Light Celestial Worthy suddenly burst out laughing.
Ling Xiao, however, didn’t say anything. In fact, he didn’t say that he killed the Plague Demon King because it might be too troublesome to explain it. But if the elders of the Moonlight Sect thought so, then he would just admit it.
In addition, he thought that even if he had the key that unlocks the treasure of the True Demon King, it wouldn’t be of much use for him to keep it.
One needed to gather all nine keys before being able to open the treasure trove. It was better to use the power of the sect to look for them, then take advantage of the fisherman.
Therefore, he planned to find a reason to give it to the sect and accumulate some sect contribution points in passing.
Killed the Plague Demon King and got this key, perhaps, this was the best reason. He didn’t even need to look for another reason.
“Golden Light, don’t joke around. According to Shangguan Lei’s description, the Plague Demon King’s cultivation should be around the Initial Rank Four Transcended Realm. Although it's far inferior to his heyday, he’s not someone that this Ling Xiao can kill.”
Elder Jin said with disdain.
He didn’t believe in any words of Ling Xiao. So, how could someone make him believe that Ling Xiao killed the Plague Demon King?
Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao, however, said nothing. He was going to fight Hei Suo next. After this battle, he believed that Elder Jin wouldn’t doubt that he had such an ability.
“Hahaha, this seat is also just making a guess. Supreme Elder doesn’t need to get angry, no need to get angry.”
Golden Light Celestial Worthy laughed heartily.
“Humph, such jokes, it’s better to make less.”
Elder Jin then looked at Ling Xiao and said: “Ling Xiao, it’s still not too late to tell the truth now. Otherwise, once Hei Suo begins making moves and you cannot hold on for fifty rounds, we will capture you, and regardless of what means we have to use, we will find out what happened here from your body.”
“Many thanks for your concern, Supreme Elder, but this disciple is telling the truth. If you want to be concerned, you should be concerned about Senior Brother Hei. This is not sparring. If this disciple accidentally kills him, I hope Supreme Elder will not blame me.”
Ling Xiao said indifferently.
“Life or death is up to fate! You don’t need to be merciful. Just use the method you used to deal with the Plague Demon King to deal with Hei Suo.”
Elder Jin seemed to be very confident in Hei Suo. He then looked at Hei Suo and said: “You too, there’s no need to be lenient.”
Then, he secretly transmitted his voice to Hei Suo: “This is a chance this seat got for you. Don’t miss it. Kill this kid, and avenge yourself and avenge your Master!”
“This disciple understands!”
Hei Suo was very excited.
The chance had come!
The chance to kill Ling Xiao came so soon that he couldn’t believe it!
He naturally won’t miss this chance. Ling Xiao must die here!
This, however, was something Law Enforcement Supreme Elder had said. Even if he killed Ling Xiao in front of so many people, there would be no problem.
The underground palace became a new battleground again.
Merely, this time, there were a lot more onlookers.
In addition to four Inner Elders, the others were all elite inner disciples.
Ling Xiao slowly walked towards Hei Suo.
At that moment, the eyes of Hei Suo seemed to be shooting out pallid lights.
That was a sharp gaze filled with hatred!
That was a sharp blade filled with anger!
These two gazes pierced through many obstacles that separated them and stabbed Ling Xiao, like a sharp blade.
Ling Xiao also looked at Hei Suo.
Back then when he was still at the White Cloud Temple in Hollow Cloud City, he had sworn that he would kill Hei Suo!
Hei Suo had forcibly seized Ming Tian from White Cloud Great Master’s hand, moreover, the other party had even tried to kill him.
At that time, he, Ling Xiao, was not strong enough to kill Hei Suo. He just barely managed to severely injure Hei Suo using unusual means, and with the sudden appearance of an expert of the Soul Race, he was able to avoid death.
Today, he, Ling Xiao, had the strength to kill Hei Suo. He wouldn’t miss such a good chance!
It was not a life-or-death challenge, but better than a life-or-death challenge.
Hei Suo might be stronger than the Plague Demon King.
The vitality of that Plague Demon King was seriously injured, moreover, he had no body. Therefore, his strength was naturally reduced greatly. In addition, he didn’t have any weapons.
However, Hei Suo was different. He was an elite inner disciple of the Moonlight Sect. He, at least, had standard martial artifacts, which were a rare treasured artifact grade martial weapon, a rare treasured artifact grade assist-type magic item and a rare treasured artifact grade defense martial item.
Strictly speaking, although his cultivation base was Initial Rank Four Transcendent Realm, his actual combat power was definitely stronger than his cultivation.
However, Ling Xiao was not afraid. In the past two days, his cultivation had not only broken through to Peak Rank Two Transcendent Realm, but he had also refined ten rare treasured artifact grade Big Dipper Flying Swords.
Coupled with the big success in <Nine Demon Gods Art-Plague Demon King>, his strength was far different from before.
Even without using the Half Dragon Form, he still had a 50% chance of killing Hei Suo!
A powerful aura gushed out from Ling Xiao’s body and it continued to get stronger.
This aura was ice-cold, and a phantom of the glacier vaguely appeared behind him.
Although Ling Xiao was very confident, he would never dare to be careless against Hei Suo. From the start, he drew on the glacier power of the Landscape Martial Soul.
At this moment, Hei Suo felt as if the one walking towards him was not Ling Xiao, rather a towering glacier, full of bone-chilling, icy aura.
“What a powerful martial soul aura!”
Sensing the icy aura emitted from Ling Xiao’s body, the onlooking inner disciples couldn’t help shivering.
This coldness could even pierce through their true essence protection, making their souls feel a big threat.
It was only at this moment, they suddenly understood. Ling Xiao was definitely not bragging before. The strength of this kid was truly more terrifying than they had imagined.
Although his cultivation was truly lacking, this martial soul’s aura completely made up for the gap in cultivation.
With every step of Ling Xiao, the pressure of the glacier would increase by a few levels, and the entire underground palace seemed to be covered in ice.
Some of the elite inner disciples with weaker cultivation bases had to retreat far away, looking for the less cold place.
Upon seeing Ling Xiao was approaching him, step by step, Hei Suo’s eyes shone with dense killing intent.
Boom~~
Along with a loud sound of an explosion, a ball of burning ghost fire appeared behind Hei Suo.
That blue flame continuously became bigger and bigger, and the scorching hot temperature approached the cold qi brought along by the glacier. In terms of just momentum, they were actually evenly matched.
Ghost Fire Martial Soul?
This is a very rare one!
Ling Xiao had always wanted to have a martial soul that surpassed ordinary fire, mainly for alchemy.
Although Hei Suo’s Ghost Fire Martial Soul was inferior to the twelve divine flames, it was much stronger than ordinary fires. If he could seize it, then he wouldn’t need to worry about lacking suitable flames for alchemy in the future.
Moreover, this Ghost Fire Martial Soul was relatively rare. Perhaps, he could use it in battle too.
In any case, the moment Hei Suo showed his martial soul, Ling Xiao had already devised a crooked plan.
