Originally, Xia Jie thought that as a Third Heavenly Layer Ancient Sage expert, Qin Shaofeng, who was only a First Heavenly Layer Ancient Sage, was just an insignificant figure in front of him. He could do whatever he wanted with Qin Shaofeng, and he believed that Qin Shaofeng wouldn't be able to resist at all. He was confident that he could conquer the Great Xia Dynasty and make an unparalleled contribution to the Great Xia Dynasty!
However, he didn't expect that the little earthworm that was struggling in the mud would suddenly transform into a true dragon that soared into the Nine Heavens. This huge change not only shocked Xia Jie, but also terrified him. At this moment, he was no longer thinking about defeating Qin Shaofeng and conquering the Great Xia Dynasty. Instead, he was thinking about how to save his own life.
Xia Jie spat out mouthfuls of blood. His face was pale as he looked at Qin Shaofeng. His eyes were filled with horror. At this moment, he truly understood how powerful Qin Shaofeng was. He no longer dared to have any thoughts of competing for supremacy. The only thing he wanted to do now was to leave this perverted place as soon as possible.
However, before Xia Jie could say anything, Qin Shaofeng slammed his palm towards Xia Jie again. This was because Qin Shaofeng was currently using the Star Cores in his Domain World to absorb the energy of heaven and earth. Qin Shaofeng had tens of thousands of Star Cores in his Domain World, so it was naturally extremely easy for him to absorb the energy of heaven and earth. In addition, Qin Shaofeng's cultivation speed and the fact that he could extract 30% of the energy of heaven and earth from his Domain World allowed him to unleash any of his ultimate moves without worrying about exhausting his Dao Energy.
Qin Shaofeng naturally used his full strength in this attack. The surging Dao Energy condensed into a huge palm print that didn't even give Xia Jie a chance to scream. Qin Shaofeng directly smashed Xia Jie into a cloud of blood mist, leaving only Xia Jie's Domain World floating in the void. It looked incomparably miserable.
Seeing Xia Jie being smashed into a cloud of blood mist by Qin Shaofeng, the soldiers standing on the ship were all dumbfounded. Everything happened too quickly. In just a few breaths of time, Xia Jie was smashed into a cloud of blood mist by Qin Shaofeng's palm. There was nothing they could do to save Xia Jie.
All the soldiers on the ship trembled when they saw the cloud of blood mist. They knew that even if they could escape from Qin Shaofeng's attack, they would still die when they returned to the Great Xia Dynasty. This was because the Great Emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty doted on Xia Jie very much. Xia Jie was the future successor of the Great Xia Dynasty. Now that they couldn't protect Xia Jie, they wouldn't be able to escape death even if they returned to the Great Xia Dynasty.
Therefore, when the soldiers on the huge ship saw Xia Jie being smashed into a cloud of blood mist, they looked at each other in dismay. In the end, they surrendered to Qin Shaofeng under the leadership of the highest-ranking general on the ship. Of course, Qin Shaofeng didn't kill them all. He just glanced at them casually and let Emperor Qin and the Ancestral Emperor deal with this matter while he looked at Xia Jie's Domain World.
Gradually, a smile appeared on the corner of Qin Shaofeng's mouth. He then summoned Xia Jie's Domain World with a wave of his hand. He held it in his palm and looked at it carefully. The smile on his face grew wider and wider. He then murmured, "It's actually the Original Soul Entrustment Technique. Pretty smart. But you won't be so lucky next time."
A cultivator's Domain World was closely related to him. However, it was the embodiment of a cultivator's Great Dao. Therefore, when a cultivator really died, the Domain World related to him would also disappear. If the cultivator's Domain World still existed, it meant that the cultivator was actually still alive and hadn't really died.
In order to do that, one had to know the Primary Soul Entrustment Technique. In other words, one had to entrust a strand of one's primary soul to something. That way, it would not matter even if one's physical body was completely destroyed. As long as the strand of primary soul remained and the Domain World remained, the cultivator would be able to reconstruct his physical body.
Qin Shaofeng was very sure that he didn't show any mercy when he hit Xia Jie with his palm. Not only did he destroy Xia Jie's physical body, but he also obliterated his original soul. However, from the looks of it, Xia Jie must have entrusted a trace of his original soul to something else. That was why his Domain World still existed under such circumstances.
Looking at the Domain World in his hand, Qin Shaofeng sneered. So what if Xia Jie had the Original Soul Entrustment Technique? This time, Xia Jie's physical body was destroyed, and his Domain World was in Qin Shaofeng's hands. Therefore, under such circumstances, it would be extremely difficult for Xia Jie to rebuild his physical body. It would take him a long time to cultivate to the Third Heavenly Layer of the Ancient Sage Realm again.
If Xia Jie's Domain World returned to the place where his original soul was, he would still be able to restore his physical body quickly with the help of his own Domain World. However, now that Xia Jie's Domain World was in Qin Shaofeng's hands, it was almost impossible for him to rebuild his physical body and return to the Third Heavenly Layer of the Ancient Sage Realm.
Therefore, Qin Shaofeng didn't pay any more attention to it. He just looked at the palm-sized Domain World in his hand. Qin Shaofeng clenched his fist, and the Domain World that contained a huge amount of energy was crushed into powder by Qin Shaofeng. Immediately after, it was devoured by Qin Shaofeng and poured into Qin Shaofeng's Domain World.
The energy contained in a Domain World was enormous, especially since it was the Domain World of a Third Heavenly Layer of the Ancient Sage Realm. However, after the violent and vast energy entered Qin Shaofeng's Domain World, it turned into a trickle, and was soon completely devoured by Qin Shaofeng's Domain World.
With the infusion of the huge amount of energy, Qin Shaofeng's Domain World evolved a little again, especially the Star Cores. After receiving such a huge amount of energy, they became even more dazzling, and the Star Cores also became much larger. Qin Shaofeng was overjoyed. It seemed that seizing the enemy's Domain World was a good way to promote the evolution of one's own Domain World.
Of course, Qin Shaofeng didn't know that his method was absolutely shocking. After all, the attributes of a cultivator's Domain World were the same as the cultivator's. In order to devour a cultivator's Domain World, they had to have the same attributes. Not only that, they also had to have the same Great Dao. Otherwise, not only would it not bring any benefits to one's Domain World, but it would also cause extremely serious damage to one's Domain World.
The same attributes and the same Great Dao were very strict conditions. Therefore, under such circumstances, basically no one could devour another's Domain World. However, this convention was broken by Qin Shaofeng once again. Qin Shaofeng actually devoured Xia Jie's Domain World without any hindrance.
If this matter were to be known by others, Qin Shaofeng would definitely become the public enemy of all the cultivators in the Great Wide World. After all, if Qin Shaofeng existed, their Domain Worlds might be devoured by Qin Shaofeng. Therefore, if this matter were to be exposed, Qin Shaofeng would definitely become a target of scorn.
However, Qin Shaofeng was naturally not a fool. He knew that such a matter absolutely couldn't be spread around. Besides, Qin Shaofeng loved to make a fortune in secret. After devouring Xia Jie's Domain World completely, Qin Shaofeng slowly walked back to the palace of the Great Qin Dynasty. At this moment, Emperor Qin and the Ancestral Emperor had already dealt with the captives of the Great Xia Dynasty and returned to the main hall of the palace.
Upon seeing Emperor Qin, Qin Shaofeng put on a smile on his face. Then, he imprinted the Nine Cauldrons Heavens Art that he obtained from Xia Jie into a jade slip and handed it to Emperor Qin. After Emperor Qin received it and checked it, a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face. He looked up at Qin Shaofeng and saw the smile on Qin Shaofeng's face. However, he didn't say anything and only nodded gently.
Upon seeing the Nine Cauldrons Heavens Art, Emperor Qin immediately guessed that Qin Shaofeng had obtained it previously. However, he definitely didn't get it from the Domain World left behind by Xia Jie. As for how Qin Shaofeng obtained it, Emperor Qin couldn't figure it out. However, Emperor Qin knew that it was Qin Shaofeng's secret and naturally, he couldn't ask about it.
After obtaining the Nine Cauldrons Heavens Art, Emperor Qin verified it with his own Nine Cauldrons Heavens Art. Naturally, he comprehended something new. Therefore, he hurriedly went into seclusion to cultivate. The civil and military officials of the Great Qin Heavenly Empire and the millions of citizens of the Great Qin Heavenly Empire also seized this rare opportunity to cultivate rapidly. After all, they were about to face eighteen powerful heavenly empires!
At the same time, in the palace of the Great Xia Dynasty, the Great Xia Emperor was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed as he cultivated. The Great Xia Emperor's appearance was somewhat similar to Xia Jie's, but he appeared much more mature. Moreover, the aura he exuded was even more terrifying. He had actually reached the peak of the Sixth Heavenly Layer of Ancient Sage and was only a step away from the Seventh Heavenly Layer of Ancient Sage.
As long as he could make a breakthrough to the Seventh Heavenly Layer of Ancient Sage, the strength of the Great Xia Dynasty would naturally rise to another level and squeeze into the upper echelons of the eighteen heavenly empires. Therefore, in order to make a breakthrough, the Great Xia Emperor went into seclusion for a very long time and handed over all the matters of the Great Xia Dynasty to the crown prince, Xia Jie. He rarely interfered with the affairs of the Great Xia Dynasty.
The Great Xia Emperor was very relieved and satisfied with Xia Jie. Therefore, the Great Xia Emperor could set aside everything and focus on making a breakthrough in seclusion. However, the Great Xia Emperor didn't expect that his son, Xia Jie, was only left with a trace of his original soul. And this trace of his original soul was inside an oil lamp in the Great Xia Emperor's seclusion grounds.
The Longevity Lamp was the spiritual treasure that Xia Jie entrusted his original soul to.
