Translator: 549690339
Li Cheng secretly decided in his heart that he must not ascend!
Even the remnant soul left by a True Immortal after death is so powerful, if he encounters a living True Immortal in the Immortal World, he would be completely powerless to resist!
It seems that in the Immortal World, every minor realm is a chasm, otherwise, one wouldn’t be so helpless.
With the decision not to ascend, Li Cheng looked at the elder, “1 said, you’re the one who should roll, and 1 want to see how much longer you can hold out!”
The elder’s eyes narrowed slightly, pondering, “At worst, this seat can simply find another cauldron!”
Li Cheng’s pupils shrank slightly, realizing that the elder meant to kill Yun Tianqiong!
If he made a move on Yun Tianqiong, it would be very difficult for Li Cheng to protect him.
Even now with the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod sealing the battle fluctuations, if the elder attacked the tripod, Yun Tianqiong inside would surely be shaken into a mist of blood in an instant!
“Now, will you roll or not?” the elder asked with amusement.
Li Cheng’s expression darkened slightly; the elder’s tactic was ruthless, threatening him with Yun Tianqiong, where staying meant he couldn’t protect Yun Tianqiong, and leaving meant Yun Tianqiong would be taken over.
Neither advancing nor retreating was an option!
But there was a way, the elder’s speed was incredibly fast, if his speed could be suppressed, there would be a chance!
And to suppress his speed, the best option was naturally the Three Temporal Laws.
Clenching his fists, Li Cheng slowly raised his head to look at the elder, just as he was about to speak, he suddenly saw two powerful fluctuations emerging from outside the cave!
“Dragon Play Bead, suppress!”
The two powerful fluctuations swept in, one from the left and one from the right, like dragons in motion, pinning the elder in place!
“Black and White Uncles!”
Li Cheng was overjoyed, it was said that the Black and White Uncles were Tribulation Loose Immortals, and together they could slay a ten-tribulation Loose Immortal!
Being suppressed by the power of the Black and White Elders, the elder merely sneered and shrugged his shoulders, breaking through their suppression with terrifying force in an instant.
The Elders rushed into the great hall, both showing surprise.
A mere remnant soul could easily break their joint suppression?
Li Cheng was also astonished, looking at the Black and White Elders and then back at the elder, how strong was he exactly?
However, in this underground great hall with its limited space, everyone dared not give their all, so it was truly hard to say who was stronger.
Black Elder glanced at the overturned Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod, and conveyed through spiritual sense, “We must find a way to shift the battlefield, it’s too confining here!”
If pressed too hard, the elder could strike without restraint, but the three of them could not, as they still had to protect Yun Tianqiong.
Li Cheng nodded secretly, “Hold him off for a moment, uncles, and leave the rest to me.”
“What do you intend to do?” White Elder asked.
“Small Displacement Array!”
After Li Cheng spoke, he began to prepare, but to the surprise of the three of them, the elder retreated at flying speed, heading straight out of the cave, “Come out and die! It’s too restrained here!”
Seeing this, Li Cheng understood, the elder still intended to possess Yun Tianqiong and had no plans for a fight to the death.
Thinking about it, it made sense, he had already resorted to using the Sword Immortal Pool to refine a Sword Body for Yun Tianqiong, how could he easily destroy it?
But no matter what, this exactly matched the wishes of the three of them.
“You stay here, we will take care of this remnant soul!” Black Elder stopped Li Cheng, and together with White Elder, they flew out of the cave.
Seeing the confidence of the two elders, Li Cheng didn’t ponder further and turned his gaze towards the rock wall where the elder was hidden.
The rock wall was already shattered, behind it was a piece of serene blue light.
As Li Cheng approached the broken rock wall, he suddenly felt the spiritual sense he released being devoured by a mysterious force!
He quickly retracted his spiritual sense and peered inside intently, raising his eyebrows immediately, “Immortal bones!”
Inside was a stone cave about thirty feet in size, with a crystal-clear skull resting at the center.
This skull contained immortal qi, along with a strand of serene blue flame that flickered; it was indeed the Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire!
Below the skull, there was a jade disc with strands of white vapor converging towards it, condensing into a drop of mysterious liquid.
That liquid was rich with the Sword Path Rules, and Li Cheng recognized at a glance that the Sword Immortal Pool where Yun Tianqiong resided was made by diluting such a drop of Sword Essence!
Without a doubt, this was the skull of the elder, who himself was a Sword Immortal, using the residual power in his skull to condense the Sword Essence in preparation for a possession.
The skull exuded an extremely strong imposing aura. If not for the fact that the power in the skull was nearly exhausted, Li Cheng feared that he wouldn’t even be able to get close to it.
“This drop of Sword Essence contains quite a few of the Sword Path Rules; it seems the elder’s accomplishment in swordsmanship was extraordinary during his lifetime!”
Whether it’s the Sword Dao, Blade Path, Fist Path, and so on, when cultivated to the extreme, they can all derive rules, and the more rules one masters, the stronger one naturally becomes.
A rule is something comprehended by oneself, abiding by the Laws of Heaven and Earth.
The Laws, on the other hand, are the forces between heaven and earth, and all Laws together constitute the Order of Heaven and Earth.
Those with exceptional talents and insight might be able to elevate their comprehended rules to Laws, but such beings are rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.
For someone like Li Cheng, who directly comprehended the Laws, it’s not to say that he is unique, but he is definitely rarer than those who elevate rules to Laws.
With a grasp through the air, Li Cheng took that drop of Sword Essence into his Storage Ring, which was not very useful to him, but to Yun Tianqiong, it was a priceless treasure.
After taking the Sword Essence, Li Cheng looked at the strand of serene blue flame within the skull and murmured, “You must be the one who devoured my Spiritual Sense just now, right?”
Li Cheng was well aware of how strong his Spiritual Sense was, but it was devoured when approaching this flame!
“Ranked eighth on the Spirit Fire Leaderboard, Heaven’s Hidden Soul Nourishing Flame!”
After some contemplation, Li Cheng recognized it.
No wonder the elder stayed here; the Heaven’s Hidden Soul Nourishing Flame could nourish the soul, which was undoubtedly the most suitable treasure for him.
The elder had the Heaven’s Hidden Soul Nourishing Flame in his skull; clearly, he had already subdued this Spiritual Fire.
Snatching it by force was nearly impossible, as even with just a Remnant Soul, the elder could withstand the Black and White Elders, and Li Cheng simply couldn’t break the seal he had left in the Spiritual Fire.
There were only two methods, one was to obliterate the elder, then the Spiritual Fire would become an unowned object, making it possible to attempt subjugation.
The second method was to let the Spiritual Fire itself expel the seal left by the elder, but this required the Spiritual Fire to possess a strong spirituality and to be attracted by the individual.
If the second method succeeded, then the elder would definitely suffer a certain degree of backlash; at that moment, if the Black and White Elders seized the opportunity, his death would be inevitable.
With this thought, Li Cheng did not hesitate to stimulate his True Fire!
The True Fire contained two of the Rule of Fire; this was the only thing Li Cheng could use to attract the Heaven’s Hidden Soul Nourishing Flame. If it did not work, then he would have no choice but to kill the elder.
But the Rule of Fire must surely hold a strong appeal to all Heaven and Earth Spirit Fires, after all, with its help, the might of a Spiritual Fire could be greatly elevated.
Moreover, with the aid of the Rule of Fire, the Spiritual Fire was very likely to undergo a transformation!
Now it was time to see if the Spirit Fire’s spirituality was strong enough!
True Fire, entwined with the Rule of Fire, converged in front of Li Cheng, and at the moment the True Fire appeared, the Heaven’s Hidden Soul Nourishing Flame began to dance joyfully!
