Chapter 2492 - 495: Advancement: 4-Leaf Demon Eye
Ling Xiao now began to understand why the higher-ups in the Eight Immortals Mountain chose to trap Ling Yan in the Demon Sea Domain instead of directly killing him.
It was probably for the sake of this legacy of goodness.
Great!
The unity of good and evil!
This is the complete legacy of the Elder of Eight Immortals.
Watching as Ling Yan was enveloped in both black and white light, his cultivation level began to recover rapidly.
Ling Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and started to study the nearby things.
The eight bronze coffins were all made of special materials forged into bronze, extremely sturdy, and even comparable to the top Divine Spiritual Tools, surpassing the Eight Great Magical Treasures of the Eight Immortals Mountain.
As for those chains, they were even more formidable, forged from unknown materials and covered with inscriptions.
If Ling Xiao could control them with an array formation, they would surely become a key to his rising combat power.
"Gather them all up!"
Thinking it over, Ling Xiao collected the eight bronze coffins and the eight giant chains into the Tyrant Universe.
Rather than using these items as tools, it would be more convenient to turn them into Martial Souls.
The Tyrant Universe could transform everything into Martial Souls, as Ling Xiao had confirmed before. Previously, he couldn’t control this transformation.
But ever since entering the cycle of reincarnation, he could control this transformation.
If he wanted to transform them into Martial Souls, he could; if not, he needn’t.
In this way, he didn’t even need a storage ring anymore; the vast Tyrant Universe would become his largest storage space.
After collecting the bronze coffins and giant chains, Ling Xiao turned his gaze to those unusual tombstones.
"Demon Statue Ghost!"
Ling Xiao retrieved this information from the memories of his Heart Demon.
This Demon Statue Ghost is a type of creature from the Demon Realm, capable of turning into stone golems during dormancy, capable of withstanding almost any attack but unable to counterattack.
That is the usual definition.
But according to the Soul Clan, the Demon Statue Ghost is a monster of condensed souls, possessing extremely strong soul power, capable of suppressing Heart Demons.
The Soul Clan often uses these Demon Statue Ghosts to enhance the power of the Demon Eye.
From one leaf, two leaves, three leaves, four leaves, up to the highest level of the Five-leaf Demon Eye.
"My Three-leaf Demon Pupil hasn’t been used for a long time; maybe I can take this opportunity to upgrade it."
With that thought, Ling Xiao once again released the Gluttonous Beast, directly devouring those eight tombstones.
The belly of the Tao Tie was simply Ling Xiao’s best furnace.
The Demon Statue Ghosts were dissolved and digested, with a large amount of soul power pouring into his Spirit Sea.
A surge of demonic energy coagulated in his right eye.
A full hour passed.
The Demon Eye with only three leaves finally advanced to four leaves.
The Four-leaf Demon Eye possessed four terrifying abilities.
The first is "Soul Capturing," which Ling Xiao often used before, capable of confusing enemies, causing them temporary distraction, and foes with low soul power would even have their souls dissipated directly;
The second is "Soul Hooking and Seize Soul," as the name implies, it can directly strip enemies of their souls, in whole or in part.
This ability Ling Xiao hadn’t used before because he wasn’t familiar with it, so he didn’t dare to use it.
However, now that the Demon Eye has been upgraded, he began to understand the terror of this Soul Hooking and Seize Soul.
The human body is composed of soul and body.
The soul is the spirit, while the corporeal form embodies the physical essence.
Together they virtually represent all the qualities of a martial artist, including strength, stamina, perception, comprehension, wisdom, speed, and more.
If they can be directly taken for personal use, what kind of situation would that be?
The third ability Ling Xiao used before — communication with other realms.
This ability is extremely powerful; used wisely, it can often secure unexpected victories.
Ling Xiao’s communication with other realms could already link with one of the Seventy-Two Demon Gods of a different world.
Additionally, there is the Bronze Giant.
This ability not only grows stronger with the level increase of the Demon Eye but also continues to strengthen with Ling Xiao’s enhanced soul power.
The fourth ability is a new one gained by Ling Xiao, though temporarily unusable as his cultivation level isn’t strong enough.
This ability currently can only serve as an ornament.
Nonetheless, once the Three-leaf Demon Eye upgrades to the Four-leaf Demon Eye, both Soul Capturing and Soul Hooking and Seize Soul as well as communication with other realms experience significant advancements.
Ling Xiao felt it was time to gradually reveal some of his past capabilities.
After all, he hadn’t used the Three-leaf Demon Pupil much before, and it was very secretive; now, with some caution, it naturally wouldn’t arouse suspicion.
The enhancement of the Demon Eye and the strengthening of soul power further boosted Ling Xiao’s comprehension.
He looked at the distant darkness of the underground world, a cold smile suddenly forming at the corner of his mouth.
Since Ling Yan couldn’t recover for the time being, he could use these underground monster beasts to refine his martial skills.
After all, his Dark Shadow Martial Arts was only practiced up to the second move.
If he could successfully cultivate the third move, then even facing a martial artist with cultivation at the First Cycle of the Yin-Yang Realm, Fifth Level of Hell, he could battle a few rounds without relying on the Soul of the Butterfly Girl.
After all, that is a top-grade Yu Pin Martial Arts Skill, albeit of inferior quality.
But top grade is top grade.
The best high-level is not as good as inferior top-grade.
Hence, in the following time, Ling Xiao, wielding the Dark Immortal Sword, embarked on a spree of massacre in this dark underground world.
In the course of the slaughter, his proficiency in martial techniques continued to advance.
And the connection with the Dark Immortal Sword also became more intimate.
To the extent that later on, when Ling Xiao held the Dark Immortal Sword, a black figure would appear behind him.
This figure should be the soul used to forge the Dark Immortal Sword initially.
It is said in the past, some blacksmiths would forge divine weapons and tools by pushing living people into a furnace to forge together.
The Dark Immortal Sword was likely made in such a manner.
This black figure, clad in black, with a bamboo hat on the head and a black cloth on the face.
Whenever it appeared during Ling Xiao’s battles, all his moves seemed to have gained spiritual autonomy, becoming not only more skillful but also nearly doubling in power.
Time speeds past as quickly as a white steed flits past a crack.
Before he knew it, seven days had already passed.
Ling Xiao’s strength was steadily growing.
The slaughter not only elevated Sword Chime Yinsan and Sword Split Huangquan into the Transcendental Realm.
But once in the Transcendental Realm, these two could be combined; used in tandem, their power greatly increased.
Additionally, the third move, Zhan Xuan Minɡ, was finally mastered, its level instantly advancing to Great Perfection.
His cultivation level thus broke through again during the continuous devouring of underground monster beasts.
The accumulated energy finally reached its peak, elevating his cultivation to the early stage of the First Cycle of the Yin-Yang Realm, Fifth Level of Hell.
As such, even the Grand Elders of the Eight Immortals Mountain were entirely unfrightening to him now.
Combined with the formidable top-grade Yu Pin Martial Arts Skill and the Dark Immortal Sword, he was undoubtedly powerful within the First Cycle of the Yin-Yang Realm, Fifth Layer of Hell.
Unless at the pinnacle cultivation level of the First Cycle of the Yin-Yang Realm, Fifth Layer of Hell, otherwise in his presence, foes would become defeated generals.
Even those at a peak cultivation level, once he unleashed the Tyrant Sky Martial Spirit, he still could win.
