Chapter 146: Soul Guess

Li Xiandao brought Qiu Bai’s corpse back to the Bank of the Universe.

All three of them followed Li Xiandao and looked at him, wanting to know what the reason behind all this was.

Within the Trading Hall, Li Xiandao placed the coffin down and he looked at it quietly.

Seven checked it and knew that Qiu Bai was indeed a corpse.

This made her frown. Her exquisite face became really solemn. She even started to suspect that something went wrong with the Bank of the Universe?

Was it because the Bank of the Universe was sealed for so long such that its functions had started to malfunction?

But she quickly tossed that idea to the back of her head as that was impossible.

Even if there was something wrong with the bank, it shouldn’t have been revealed in Ancient Desolate Land.

Seven looked at Li Xiandao and hesitated, “Master, do you see anything wrong with this?”

The other three of them looked at Li Xiandao in unison.

Li Xiandao had read many books and pretty much finished everything in the Ten Thousand Country Book Depository. With all the knowledge in his mind, he was the calmest person when facing such a situation.

“Seven, when Qiu Bai came to the Bank of the Universe, she exchanged her soul flame for 10 Human Celestial Pills. She promised that after she died everything of hers would belong to the Bank of the Universe including her soul right?” Li Xiandao asked.

Seven nodded but she didn’t understand what Li Xiandao was getting at. How could that prove that Qiu Bai wasn’t dead?

Li Xiandao looked at the ice coffin and said, “Go take her soul flame.”

Seven agreed, “Although the Bank of the Universe doesn’t have many treasures, things like soul flames haven’t been sealed. They are sealed in the treasury, so I will go get it.”

The Bank of the Universe had many items that had been pawned off and only a few things were left.

Those that had been pawned were naturally the most valuable ones and those that remained might not have been worthless but they were definitely not as valuable.

Soul flames were one of such items.

During special times, soul flames were really precious. Especially a pure soul flame which was deemed a priceless treasure.

But that was only during special times.

Very quickly, Seven came out with a transparent jade bottle. In it was a lotus-like jade flame.

This was a snow lotus!

It was transparent and looked extremely beautiful, like a lotus blooming at the peak of a snow mountain.

“This soul flame is really special.” Heaven Heart said in shock.

“That’s right, I have never seen such transparent soul flames before.” Lucifer nodded his head.

“It is comparable to the purity of the moon, that is a snow lotus right?” Moon Angel looked at it in shock.

It was a flame but everyone felt like it was a snow lotus. That was enough to show that something was wrong.

This was a perfect quality soul flame.

No wonder she could exchange it for 10 Human Celestial Pills!

This was a rare job down by the Master before Li Xiandao.

Seven muttered, “I was the one who signed this.”

Li Xiandao looked at Seven in shock. The last Master actually gave you power?

Seven explained, “One time he went to drink in the Celestial World and got really drunk. Since there were guests I had to receive them and I also signed this contract. After this matter, I was even scolded by him.”

When she said this, Seven felt really wronged.

Li Xiandao nodded his head. The small bit of praise he had for the last Master was extinguished. As expected, he couldn’t have any hope for him.

“Now that I have taken the soul flame, what should I do?” Seven looked at Li Xiandao and asked.

Li Xiandao took out this snow lotus-like snow flame and placed it in his hand, “If she is dead, then this soul flame should change. Now, I shall take it out and place it in her body to see whether or not she will awaken.”

“That is worth a try but I am not hopeful about it.” Seven did not think it would work. She had also thought about using the soul flame and the corpse to react with one another but it usually had little to no effect.

“Don’t worry, I am here.” Li Xiandao smiled towards Seven and said confidently.

Seven didn’t know why but her heart felt warm. Only after she came to her senses did she realize that Li Xiandao was flirting with her.

Li Xiandao walked in front of the ice coffin and placed the soul flame in, “In the Ten Thousand Country Book Depository there is a book that talks about the soul flame. It isn’t a cultivation technique but it is quite interesting. Next time when all of you have a chance to enter, I recommend that all of you read it.”

Heaven Heart, Lucifer, Usuna, and Seven all looked at Li Xiandao and listened intently.

“This book is called ‘Beginning of the Soul’ and it was written by someone who had great knowledge of the soul. It was filled with research of the soul and was deemed the encyclopedia of the soul. It is really precious and we are fortunate that we have it in the Ten Thousand Country Book Depository.” Li Xiandao praised the Beginning of the Soul.

After reading so many books in the Ten Thousand Country Book Depository, there were only a few that could leave him in shock and amazement. Beginning of the Soul was one of them.

Lucifer, Heaven Heart, Usuna, and even Seven remembered the name of the book. In the future, when they had a chance, they would definitely find it.

“This book’s author is one of the ancient experts Soul Ancestor. His cultivation might not be extremely strong but no one in the world since the beginning of time can compete with him in terms of knowledge of the soul.” Li Xiandao looked at the lotus-like soul flame as it entered Qiu Bai’s body.

Anyway, since it took some time for the soul flame to seep through the corpse, Li Xiandao had time to explain all their doubts and be a loving teacher to all of them.

Time for Teacher Li!

“Since Qiu Bai obtained the Human Celestial Pill, 10 of them, based on her talent, she probably won’t die.” Li Xiandao stood with his arms behind his back and said.

“Human Celestial Pill has a thread of Dao knowledge. Although it is just a bit, for a Dao Saint, it is like an ocean. Just by comprehending it, one can easily break into Countless Sands Realm.” Seven said.

“Right, one Human Celestial Pill is like an ocean for Qiu Bai to swim in. She had 10, so even if she was a pig she could break into Countless Sands Realm and definitely wouldn’t die.” Li Xiandao said firmly.

This was something that he found very weird since the beginning.

With 10 Human Celestial Pills, it was as if one had 10 huge oceans. There would be endless amounts of treasures in the ocean.

But now, you’re telling me that you didn’t comprehend them and didn’t sail the seas, but instead, you died at the shore.

Li Xiandao didn’t believe that anyone would be such a fool!

Unless… She was facing problems.

This could explain why she wanted to exchange for the Human Celestial Pills. She wanted to gamble with her life, using the Human Celestial Pill to let herself break through.

But she still failed in the end.

In the end, she placed her corpse in the depths of the ice to never decompose.

“What is the reason for that?” Seven asked curiously. She had never witnessed such a situation before.

Li Xiandao’s eyes shone with a bright glow. If not for the all-knowing talent, he wouldn’t have been able to pick up all these clues.

Now with all of these clues, Li Xiandao started to dig for more.

“Maybe she isn’t dead!”

“No, she should be dead but she has another body.”

“There is also a high possibility that she is just an unimportant clone.” Li Xiandao had a very interesting guess.
