Chapter 658: Fangs!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
One would know that this old man was killed by a mysterious invader when he was alive and was then suppressed here from their previous conversation. Then, there was a question. Why did the old manâs soul have to be suppressed after killing him?
What secrets was he hiding?
Usually, the reason why they were suppressed was because this person was too strong and could not be completely killed. Therefore, they could only suppress him.
Perhaps the so-called âintruderâ was not strong enough and could only suppress the old man.
If it was just this, it could only make Ye Qiubai a little puzzled and not be sure of anything.
However, Ye Qiubai was certain that when the old man took out the soul mark regarding the Sword Dao inheritance, that this old man was hiding something. Otherwise, why would a soul that lived in this city and was suppressed could not leave this city knowing that there would be a Sword Dao inheritance in the outside world?
Under the circumstances where they didnât know each other and didnât have any friendship, yet he let Ye Qiubai undo the seal?
What if Ye Qiubai attacked? He would not do such a thing.
He looked at the old manâs soul again that seemed to reveal a lineup, his face was vicious, and his eyes were filled with evil and ruthlessness.
âFor a sword cultivator, shouldnât the Sword Dao inheritance be very attractive?â
Ye Qiubai smiled faintly. âI can have it, but I have no need for it.â
âBesides, you have to have the life to use it.â
If it were any other sword cultivator, they might have hesitated since if the inheritance suppressed in Death Soul City was of the lowest level, it was also a chance for the cultivators of the Middle Latitude Realm to change their fate after all!
This hesitation might disrupt his train of thought and prevent him from calmly thinking about the hidden dangers.
It was deadly.
The old manâs soul made a mistake.
Ye Qiubai had too many inheritances.
Be it the Astral Sword Technique or the inheritance of the Chaos Essence Sword Immortal, or the Primordial Sword Scripture and the Green Cloud Sword that his master had given him.
There was no need to take such a huge risk for an inheritance.
Hearing this, the old manâs soul revealed a sinister smile.
âIf thatâs the caseâŠâ
âThen I can only possess you and undo the seal.â
Ye Qiubai was slightly stunned and asked, âThen why didnât you do this directly before? Why did you have to take such a big detour?â
The old manâs soul said coldly, âOur souls have already been worn down by time and are constantly weakening. Itâs already very difficult for us to maintain the normal movement of our souls. If we try to possess them again, it will consume our souls.â
Speaking up to this point, the old manâs soul sneered, âBut donât worry, even though the soul will be consumed, as long as the seal is undone, we will find a Soul type artifact to restore it.â
With that, the old manâs soul actually turned into a wisp of white light that drilled into Ye Qiubaiâs glabella!
Ye Qiubaiâs expression was calm when he saw this. A sheathed sword suddenly appeared in his hand.
The longsword was simple and unadorned, blocking in front of his face.
At this moment, the old manâs soul collided with the sheath of the Green Cloud Sword.
The originally silent Green Cloud Sword erupted with monstrous Sword Intent in an instant!
It directly split the soul of the old man in front of him into two!
The remaining half of the soul quickly escaped.
At this moment, even though he had escaped death, the old manâs soul had also become semi-transparent.
His semi-transparent face was filled with fear.
âWhat sword is this?!â
As a Holy Weapon at the level of Green Cloud Sword, it is easy to resist this level of soul invasion.
Ye Qiubai did not answer and put away the Green Cloud Sword. He probably lost the ability to seize othersâ bodies now after all.
âOkay, how about I let you go if you hand over the inheritance?â
The tables have turned.
He originally thought that it was alright if he gave up on the inheritance. It was a pity that this soul wanted to hit him head on.
The old manâs expression was extremely ugly.
He could still survive if he wanted to even though more than half of his soul power was lost.
Thinking of this, the old manâs soul body had no choice but to hand over the soul mark.
Then he snorted coldly and wanted to leave.
Ye Qiubai said: âWait.â
The old manâs expression changed drastically, âWhy, Iâve already given you what you want! Are you going to break your promise as a sword cultivator?â
Ye Qiubai shook his head and said: âNo, I just want you to tell me the situation in Death Soul City.â
âWhatâs more, I just said to let you go, but that doesnât mean I wonât kill you later.â
Hearing this, that old manâs translucent face was full of gloom.
Unexpectedly, he was actually caught by a young junior.
But so what?
He had no choice but to lower his head under someone elseâs roof.
He could only say: âOkay, but you have to save my life.â
âOtherwise, I wonât tell you even if I die. It is not news that you will have a narrow escape from death in this Death Soul City.â
Ye Qiubai nodded, âDonât even think about deceiving me. My soul has been locked on you after all. Once you lie, you will naturally be able to detect abnormalities. If found, I will take action directly.â
Seeing this, the old man said: âWhat do you want to know?â
âFirst, letâs talk about whatâs going on here. Why are you being suppressed here?â
The old man sighed slightly and replied: âWe donât know the reason, but our souls are being extracted all the time.â
âEven though the speed is very slow, over time, the soul body will completely dissipate. This is why we are so anxious.â
If no outsider absorbs it, the soul of a strong person can be guaranteed to be immortal.
Ye Qiubai nodded and said: âSo, even though the number of times Death Soul
City has been opened is small, is it possible that you didnât succeed the first few times?â
The old man sneered: âHow is it possible that no one succeeds?â
âThere will always be people who were cheated by the benefits every time that Death Soul City opened. They would activate the seals and devour their souls.
âItâs just that outsiders who entered the Death Soul City are randomly teleported to a city outside. You were the first to come to the city where I am.â âAnd those soul bodies that opened the seal have already broken through the restrictions of Death Soul City and left this area.â
âDonât be surprised. Those who can be suppressed here are not weak. It will be easy to tear through the restrictions here as long as they regain their strength.â And Ye Qiubaiâs next question also allowed him to learn that the Death Soul City is surrounded by groups of cities, and in each city, there is a suppressed strong soul. As for the other souls, they are just some soldiers and generals who can never escape from here.
And these powerful souls all have more or less inheritance clues in their hands.
I here was the Secret Land of Inheritance in the middle.
However, no one knew what was hidden right at the center because no one had set foot in the center.
That allowed Ye Qiubai to have some guesses.
Everything seemed to be things that someone did deliberately.
All of these seemed to be a trial..
