In this world, as long as one has any slight connection with the word "Emperor", it will be enough to make it a synonym for power.
Be it the Dou Emperor or the Emperor-grade elixir, these are supreme in everyone's eyes.
Similarly, the souls in the emperor realm are also among them.
Dou Di, imperial elixir, imperial soul.
Among the three emperors, judging from the current situation on the continent, the possibility of the third one seems to be greater. After all, at this level, there is no need to absorb the so-called "original emperor energy".
But this does not mean that the soul of the emperor realm can easily enter.
There are only two people on the continent who have reached the emperor realm of soul, and they are Gu Yuan and Emperor Hun Tian.
Actually, Lin Ran had tried to break through to the Emperor Realm Soul, but he really had no chance.
He absorbed and devoured a lot of the soul essence of the Soul Palace, but even so, his soul realm did not improve.
Later, the Soul Palace began to collect souls, and the souls that Lin Ran could access became fewer and fewer. This also caused Lin Ran's soul realm to remain at the Heavenly Realm of Great Perfection.
Although this level is only one step away from the emperor realm soul, it is this small step that makes many strong people stop here forever.
No matter how much you practice, you can't make any progress!
If you want to break through the Emperor Realm soul, it is simply impossible to follow the ordinary practice method. In the original work, the only two people who were described as breaking through the Emperor Realm soul are Xiao Yan and Xuwu Tunyan, both of whom relied on absorbing massive amounts of soul power to break through.
The former relies on devouring the spirit of the Heavenly Tomb, while the latter relies on the countless souls accumulated in the Soul Palace over the years.
Use quantitative change to produce qualitative change, and ultimately achieve a breakthrough in the soul.
"I'm not questioning it, but Senior Xiao Xuan, it's so difficult to break through the Emperor Realm soul. After I broke through to the Heavenly Realm, I tried many times to break through again, but failed every time." Lin Ran showed extreme shock on his surface, then shook his head and questioned.
"From my perception, no matter how I cultivate my soul, how I absorb soul power, or even if I use ancient soul cultivation methods, I cannot break through my soul again."
"How can Senior Xiao Xuan help me break through to the Emperor Realm Soul?"
"indeed."
Hearing Lin Ran's words, Xiao Xuan nodded slightly: "It is indeed extremely difficult to break through to the Emperor Realm Soul, but relying on this Heavenly Tomb Soul, it can be done."
"The soul of the Heavenly Tomb?"
"The soul of the Heavenly Tomb I'm talking about is not the residual souls here, but... the soul of this Heavenly Tomb!"
"The soul of the Heavenly Tomb?! This Heavenly Tomb also has a soul?!" Lin Ran said with an incredible look on his face.
"good."
Xiao Xuan stared straight at the empty space, nodded, and said calmly: "This Heavenly Tomb actually contains a strange creature, a life form that has been condensed by countless residual soul seals since the creation of the Heavenly Tomb."
"You can think of it as the guardian of the Heavenly Tomb. Of course, I think it might be more appropriate to describe it as a jailer."
"It controls this space. At the same time, it also gives those energy bodies the ability to devour each other."
"Except for the energy body here, no one can sense its existence. Even Gu Yuan and others are unaware of it."
"A space with souls..." Lin Ran murmured.
"Yes, it is a space with souls, and they are emperor-level souls!"
Xiao Xuan nodded and said, "But don't worry, although that guy is very troublesome, I can still handle it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Xuan's body suddenly and slowly rose into the air.
As his body rose, the mist that filled the sky and earth quickly dissipated, and a terrifying pressure spread from his body, and finally enveloped almost the entire tomb.
Under this terrifying pressure, all the energy bodies in the Heavenly Tomb raised their heads and looked far away in the direction where Xiao Xuan was rising. A look of excitement suddenly emerged in their originally numb eyes.
"Master Xiao Xuan...are you finally going to take action against it..."
Deep in the Heavenly Tomb, the Blood Knife Saint suddenly stood up, his body trembling as he looked at the figure that was slowly rising into the air.
Although this world allows them to survive in another form, it is not what they want.
The soul of that tomb planted the seeds of mutual devourment in their remaining souls, turning this place into a world of mutual devourment.
In order to strengthen themselves, they must constantly devour other energy bodies. For them, who were once human beings, this is not much different from cannibalism.
The Heavenly Tomb in the past was merely a place for the strong to rest in peace.
But ever since the soul of the tomb was born that day, the world here has become distorted.
There were people who tried to challenge the soul of that tomb, but were easily devoured by it in the end.
In this space, the only person who can make him afraid is Xiao Xuan in the depths of the Heavenly Tomb!
A long time ago, someone begged Xiao Xuan to relieve them from their difficulties, but the latter ignored them.
Over time, the energy bodies here became gradually disappointed. Since they could not resist, they could only endure it quietly.
And precisely because of this, when they suddenly saw Xiao Xuan's actions, their originally numb hearts couldn't help but become hot again.
They are tired of devouring each other. They are human beings, not beasts...
"The Xiao clan is almost extinct, and the obsession in my heart is almost gone. The only obsession is the so-called Soul Emperor."
"If you can break through to the Emperor Realm Soul, and then join forces with the Ancient Clan, the Soul Clan can be destroyed!"
Xiao Xuan spoke softly, his gaze lingering on Lin Ran's body and then shifted to the ethereal void.
"Back then, I still had obsessions in my heart, but now, my obsessions have been broken. I will help you fulfill your petition this time..."
Xiao Xuan's voice faintly spread throughout the huge Heavenly Mausoleum. Inside the Heavenly Mausoleum, countless souls knelt down before Xiao Xuan.
Lin Ran had a complicated expression. He bowed slightly and saluted him.
Such a genius, such a character, should be brought to light!
"Boom…"
When Lin Ran saluted Xiao Xuan, a loud rumbling sound was heard from the end of the void space.
The loud noise was like thunder, sweeping out from the depths of the void, causing many energy bodies in the Detian Tomb to tremble violently.
Lin Ran's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the distant sky.
At this moment, he also felt a soul fluctuation as unfathomable as the ocean.
This soul fluctuation was extremely terrifying. At the moment of contact, Lin Ran felt as if he was being crushed by a mountain. It was even more stressful than the pressure from Gu Yuan and Emperor Hun Tian.
Emperor Realm Soul, no doubt about it!
However, although the soul fluctuations were terribly strong, they gave him a mottled feeling, which was probably because he had swallowed too many soul remnants.
In the gray void, invisible soul fluctuations quickly condensed.
After a moment, the space began to wriggle.
A huge face, about ten thousand feet tall, suddenly emerged from the void and appeared in the sky!
That giant face was filled with indifference and weirdness, and a terrifying aura emanated from it. Even though Lin Ran was now a mid-stage Nine-Star Fighting Saint, with a soul that had reached the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Realm, he still felt tremendous pressure from it.
"Xiao Xuan, we have always kept to ourselves. Are you trying to break the agreement between us today?"
The giant face rolled over, and a pair of emotionless eyes stared at Xiao Xuan who was floating in the sky. The cold voice was like thunder, rumbling between heaven and earth.
Xiao Xuan looked at the giant face, but smiled and said softly: "Your birth was a mistake. I think the Doudi strongman who founded the Heavenly Tomb did not expect that a strange creature like you would be born here."
"Nonsense, I was born according to the master's will, and I am the guardian of this space!"
The giant face rolled over, and the soul of the Heavenly Tomb said indifferently: "You have revived because of me, so you should follow my rules!"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"They survived because of the Heavenly Tomb, not because of you." Xiao Xuan shook his head.
"I am Tianmu, and Tianmu is me!"
The soul of Tianmu seemed to be touched by Xiao Xuan's words, and its voice suddenly became much sharper.
"You are not Tianmu. Your birth was not due to Tianmu, but due to the condensation of their residual souls. In a sense, they created you."
Xiao Xuan smiled slightly and spoke in a calm voice, but it made the giant face become more and more distorted, and it looked extremely hideous.
"Since you are determined to seek death, I will grant your wish!"
The giant face surged, and from its giant mouth, an incomparably huge soul storm suddenly gushed out.
The storm was spinning wildly, like a sharp cone, and it shot towards Xiao Xuan fiercely.
Facing the attack of the Soul of the Sky Tomb, Xiao Xuan simply took steps and walked towards the giant face one step at a time. The seemingly ferocious soul storm passed through his body without causing any harm to him.
"Give me the essence of your soul."
A strange flame spread out from all the pores of Xiao Xuan's body, and the smile on his face became gentler.
"Spontaneous combustion of the soul? Xiao Xuan, you are crazy!"
The Heavenly Tomb can stabilize the soul and allow it to continue to survive in this world. Therefore, even though Xiao Xuan has long since passed away, his remaining soul and consciousness can still survive in this world.
Of course, if Xiao Xuan's soul had not been damaged in the past, then there would be no problem even if thousands of years had passed.
This is the domineering nature of the emperor's soul!
However, Xiao Xuan is now just a remnant soul, and now Xiao Xuan has made this remnant soul spontaneously ignite, bursting out the last bright dawn of the former emperor's soul!
"If your soul spontaneously ignites, you will completely disappear from this world! Xiao Xuan, are you crazy?!"
"What?! The soul is natural?!" Although Lin Ran below already knew about it, he still showed a look of shock on his face: "Senior Xiao Xuan!"
"I am very happy that you can protect the Xiao clan from being destroyed by the Soul clan. Now that my obsession has been broken, it is no longer important whether I disappear or not."
Facing the slightly frightened soul of the Heavenly Tomb, Xiao Xuan smiled slightly.
The next moment, he raised his palm which was glowing with soul flames and grabbed the former from a distance.
In an instant, a terrifying suction force formed in his palm, and suddenly, a violent wave came from the huge mouth of the Soul of the Tomb, as if something was being forcibly pulled out.
"If you want to die, don't drag me down with you!"
The soul of the Heavenly Tomb roared angrily, and even the entire Heavenly Tomb began to tremble under its roar.
As its huge mouth opened, an invisible soul spear that was hundreds of feet long shot out, tearing through the space and shooting towards Xiao Xuan fiercely.
"I'll burn my soul, you can't stop me."
Facing the resistance of the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb, Xiao Xuan's expression still appeared calm.
He smiled indifferently, stretched out his hand, and then gently clenched it. The soul spear that was rushing towards him with sharp sound waves suddenly stopped.
Then, with a flick of his sleeves, Xiao Xuan immediately turned around and reflected the soul of the Heavenly Tomb with a more ferocious attack.
There were even clusters of strange flames on the spear.
That was the spontaneous combustion of the soul!
"Swoosh!"
The spear reflected extremely quickly, almost in an instant, it turned into a flame and penetrated through the giant face.
Suddenly, the flame on the spear was like meeting dry firewood, and it spread out like lightning with a bang.
"ah!"
Fireworks filled the air, and the soul of the Heavenly Tomb let out a shrill scream.
If they were to fight normally, although it was wary of Xiao Xuan, it would not be afraid.
But now the latter's soul will spontaneously ignite as soon as it makes a move, and the power will naturally surge suddenly, making it extremely difficult even for it to resist.
What's more, the fireworks that spontaneously ignite the soul are too lethal to a soul body like it.
The giant soul face in the sky was filled with flames, and finally the giant face shrank rapidly.
At the same time, waves of crazy soul shocks continuously burst out from his body, turning the world upside down. All energy bodies were so frightened that they fled far away from this area, fearing that they would be entangled in it and end up with their souls torn apart.
The soul of Tianmu wanted to struggle, but no one knew how powerful Xiao Xuan was now that his soul had spontaneously combusted.
That was the spontaneous combustion of the Emperor Realm Soul, the last ray of hope for the world's most powerful being to exhaust all its remaining strength!
After a few breaths, the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb completely melted under Xiao Xuan's power, and a crystal light circle about ten feet in size was slowly pulled out of the body of the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb and floated down towards Lin Ran.
Lin Ran gently lifted it up, and felt a warm feeling suddenly emerging from the depths of his soul.
The power of this soul essence is unimaginable. Compared with the soul essence of the Soul Palace and the Human Palace that helped him enter the Heavenly Realm, it is simply not worth mentioning!
"With your qualifications, you only need to devour this soul essence, and there is at least a 98% chance of breaking through to the Emperor Realm soul."
Xiao Xuan looked at Lin Ran and the soul origin of the Heavenly Tomb Spirit in his hand. His palm moved slightly, and the vast power continued to erode the remaining will and strength in the soul origin.
"Xiao clan...please continue to take care of us."
"Senior Xiao Xuan's kindness is something I will never forget!"
Lin Ran held the soul origin in his hand with a serious face. He had already decided in his heart that after dealing with Emperor Hun Tian, he would definitely arrange a hundred or eighty beautiful girls for Xiao Yan, Xiao Li and others to continue passing on the bloodline of the Xiao clan.
I, Lin Ran, am the one who knows how to repay kindness the most!
