Chapter 1943: Chapter 1943: Ten Thousand Years of Desolation
The entire mass of Soul Power Origin hovered in front of Xiao Yi.
As always, it was thick, surging, and pure.
Although Xiao Yi had come to obtain Soul Power here twice before, due to his Poison Power’s limitations, he couldn’t enclose much, hence couldn’t take much.
But, it was this not-so-much Soul Power that repeatedly allowed him to unleash the power of ’Ice Storm Devouring Soul’, enough to instantly kill a Legendary Realm expert with ease.
The middle-aged man he encountered last time in the Thunder Light Dangerous Land, in terms of strength, was probably not much inferior to the Holy Moon Elder.
Yet under the ’Ice Storm Devouring Soul’, he too ended up being instantly killed.
And the Holy Moon Elder, whom Xiao Yi had fought, naturally, he knew the strength of such a Legendary expert was extremely powerful.
Far stronger than Jiu Yan and even more formidable than the current Fog Demon.
But even such an expert comparable to the Holy Moon Elder was merely instantly killed under ’Ice Storm Devouring Soul’.
It was conceivable how terrifying the power of Ice Storm Devouring Soul was under sufficient Soul Power.
As the strongest soul skill of the Ice Venerable, it was inherently a defying technique.
This mass of Soul Power Origin, Xiao Yi was determined to obtain it.
The entire mass of Soul Power Origin was effortlessly absorbed into the Eight Dragons Burning Fire Furnace as it met no resistance from Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi had foreseen this.
The Illusion Light Dangerous Land was reputed to be the most perilous land.
While the Illusion Light Cave Mansion was deemed the most indestructible and impossible to venture.
Yet till now, Xiao Yi hadn’t found any danger in this perilous land, nor had he found the Illusion Light Cave Mansion particularly difficult to break.
Though he didn’t understand the reason, since the mass of Soul Power Origin could be obtained so easily, it was a good thing.
"Seal." Xiao Yi lowly commanded.
Pieces of Spirit Stones appeared out of thin air.
The Ice Profound Sealing Formation was instantly set up.
Only after half a day’s time did Xiao Yi retract his hand.
"Phew." Xiao Yi let out a breath.
Spending half a day and consuming a large number of Spirit Stones, the Ice Profound Sealing Formation he set up was sturdy enough.
The entire mass of Soul Power Origin had been sealed within the Eight Dragons Burning Fire Furnace.
With a wave of his large hand, Xiao Yi retrieved the Eight Dragons Burning Fire Furnace.
Having obtained the entire mass of Soul Power Origin, it was now time to leave.
However, what puzzled Xiao Yi was that at the ends of other Cave Mansions, there were Martial Arts Relics.
But only in the Illusion Light Cave Mansion was there a mass of Soul Power Origin, without Martial Arts Relics.
Yet in his perception, it was clear that the Soul Power Origin was something of the same level as those Martial Arts Relics.
If he guessed correctly, the Soul Power was probably more special.
Other powers, like Golden Dao Power and Blood Dao Power, upon reaching a certain level, would condense into Martial Arts Relics similar to an ’inner core’.
But Soul Power would gather into Origin Power.
Xiao Yi shrugged, not thinking further.
Having broken through fifteen Cave Mansions and acquired 15 Martial Arts Relics, it was sufficient to return to the Black Demon Hall Main Hall to exchange them for the Ten Thousand Poison Fruit.
The Soul Power Origin had also been obtained, allowing his future Soul Master’s techniques to be utilized without restraint.
In other words, he had gained another extremely strong trump card.
Now, he could leave.
...
Xiao Yi’s figure flickered as he left the Illusion Light Cave Mansion.
However, just after exiting the mansion, the surrounding scenery changed dramatically.
Xiao Yi’s pupils shrank as he observed his surroundings.
Outside the Illusion Light Cave Mansion was the Illusion Light Dangerous Land, characterized by dense woods and towering mountains.
But now, what lay before his eyes was a land of blooming flowers?
Yes, flowers.
They couldn’t be considered rare Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, nor were they exotic blooms.
They were just wildflowers abundant everywhere.
But these flowers carpeted the mountains and fields, blooming across tens of thousands of miles.
No, even beyond that.
Xiao Yi gazed to the horizon, unable to see the end of this land of flowers.
All the way to the end, the flowers stretched far beyond sight.
The flowers, although not particularly beautiful,
were vibrant and eye-catching under such dense clustering.
Within tens of thousands of miles, like a fantasy.
Whoosh...
Xiao Yi’s figure flickered, flying into the air.
A few minutes later, Xiao Yi flew countless miles.
Yet, he still couldn’t see the end of this flourishing land.
"Illusion Realm?" Xiao Yi instantly realized.
But how could an Illusion Realm suddenly appear outside the Illusion Light Cave Mansion?
Xiao Yi glanced down, suddenly his pupils narrowed again.
Below, lay the spot where the Illusion Light Cave Mansion stood.
Meaning, after flying such a long distance, he hadn’t moved at all?
With his abilities, it was only now that he realized he had fallen into an Illusion Realm?
"What a terrifying formation technique." Xiao Yi’s heart was filled with horror.
Before he could react,
High above, the air was crowded with Gang Winds.
Gusts of Kuang Feng blew from afar.
Wherever the Kuang Feng passed, the flowers below withered and decayed in no time.
In just a moment, the surroundings became a desert of yellow sand, the sky filled with sandstorms.
The yellow sand surged and rose,
coalescing into giant yellow sand dragons, attacking.
An intense sense of danger surged into his heart.
Xiao Yi squinted, "Shui Ninghan?"
He wasn’t mistaken, such illusory means were identical to Shui Ninghan’s.
First was the vast land of flowers, dazzling and captivating.
Next was the overwhelming yellow sand, rife with Killing Intent.
"Just an illusion array and a killing formation, trying to trap me? Ridiculous." Xiao Yi sneered.
Whoosh...
His figure flickered, descending from high above.
Sitting cross-legged, Xiao Yi’s perception spread over the surrounding miles.
For a moment.
Xiao Yi’s eyes opened, a glimmer of light bursting forth, "Break it for me."
The cold words boomed throughout the yellow sand land.
In an instant, the yellow sand dispersed, the sandstorm vanished without a trace.
"Broken." A cold smile appeared on Xiao Yi’s lips.
Yet, after the yellow sand dispersed, what was revealed wasn’t the anticipated scene outside the mansion.
Instead...a desolation.
Within the ten-thousand-mile radius, not a blade of grass grew, the land cracked dry.
An ancient and desolate aura rushed toward him.
Seated cross-legged, Xiao Yi was once again filled with fright.
In this desolate land, there was nothing else.
Only he, Xiao Yi, stood at the center.
In the midst of this desolation, it seemed as if time stopped flowing.
Time, whether it had passed for long, or whether it had frozen, was undiscernible.
Xiao Yi looked around, seeing nothing but cracked, barren land for miles.
Gradually, he even felt himself becoming uncontrollably unfocused and dazed.
But he could see his own garments were gradually turning to tatters.
The tatters weren’t caused by external objects.
Rather, under the passage of time, the clothing was gradually eroding.
Xiao Yi glanced at his own hands.
Though covered by white gloves, he could clearly feel the ancient hands beneath the gloves.
Though still plagued with potent poison, pustules, and blisters.
The skin was visibly becoming more withered and wrinkled.
He was aging.
Time was fleeting by rapidly.
He sat cross-legged, as if ten thousand years had passed.
Xiao Yi squinted his eyes, and his heart trembled wildly, "What a terrifying Ancient Great Formation, to be within it yet unaware."
Simultaneously.
Outside the Great Formation, an elderly figure wearing an expression of shock.
"What incredible mental fortitude, to so swiftly react from within the Flowing Light No Sun Formation?"
"Break it for me." Within the Great Formation, Xiao Yi shouted once again.
A loud shout, the surrounding desolation instantly dissipated.
Outside, normalcy returned, revealing the scene outside the mansion.
"Shui Ninghan, is this all you have?" Xiao Yi sneered.
But the laughter abruptly halted.
In front of him stood only a slightly short figure, eyes gleaming with light, an old man.
The old man, his face full of smiles, eyes filled with joy.
Xiao Yi frowned, his gaze turned cold, "Where did this petty thief come from, daring to act out in front of me?"
"Me?" The old man’s smile froze instantly upon hearing this.
