"Truly despicable. No wonder they had to lock me up."
Xing Jue furiously looked at the letter. With a thought, with a poof, the letter was burnt to ashes, and a hint of fury also flashed into Xing Jue's gaze.
Within the letter, Elder Xuan Wang informed Xing Jue, Elder Sky Phase, Elder Earth Phase, and Elder Huang Phase that they had jointly decided to open the main palace in ten days.
They were to let Tian Zhong and the other outstanding young generation of the three battalions enter and let them come into contact with the dusty throne.
There was a rule in the Dusty Royal City. Only those who could sit on the dusty throne had the qualifications to become the lord of the city. As long as they could sit on the dusty throne, even the four elders had to listen to them, listen to their plans, and support them with all their strength.
They opened the main palace at this time because they wanted Xing Jue to miss the chance to come into contact with the dusty throne. They were afraid that Xing Jue would obtain the approval of the dusty throne.
If someone obtained the approval of the dusty throne in ten days, then Xing Jue would miss this chance, and the position of the lord of the dusty throne would be forever brushed past him.
"This won't do. I must think of a way …"
Xing Jue started to panic. Right now, the dusty throne was in a period of chaos. With his extraordinary talent, he could have easily obtained the position of the lord of the city. If he missed this chance, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
But right now, it was the decision of the three manager elders. Even Elder Xuan Xiang could do nothing about it. What could Xing Jue do?
He couldn't possibly escape on the day of the main palace's opening and come into contact with the dusty throne right?
Putting aside the fact that Xing Jue didn't have any certainty in obtaining the approval of the dusty throne, the most important thing was that at that time, as long as the other three elders saw Xing Jue, they wouldn't give him any chance to approach the dusty throne.
With their schemes, most likely, they would use the crime of Xing Jue's escape as a spy to kill Xing Jue in order to get rid of any future troubles.
"Damn it! Am I really going to let those three old men play me like this?" Xing Jue was unwilling to accept this. He was getting more and more restless. He really didn't want to miss this opportunity.
"This feeling …" But just at that moment, Xing Jue's expression could not help but change once again. His body trembled violently because at that moment, a strange ripple came from the Soul-devouring Order, causing him to be shocked.
* whoosh * Feeling this change, Xing Jue turned into a wisp of gas and instantly entered the Soul Devouring Order.
"Oh no, is the Soul Exalt going to fail?"
The moment Xing Jue entered the Soul-devouring Mandate, his face became extremely pale. This was because he discovered that the formation that was refining the Soul Exalt's body had undergone a huge change.
Thick black smoke rose from the majestic Soul Refining Formation at this moment. The thick smoke surged into the sky and emitted a pungent smell, as if it was burnt.
This Soul Refining Formation had thirty-two formation cores. Sixteen of them stored Xing Jue's Soul Strength, while the other eight stored the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence. It was these thirty-two formation cores that provided energy for the Soul Refining Formation to continue to operate.
And at this moment, Xing Jue discovered that the eight formation cores that stored the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence had actually been burnt out.
According to Xing Jue's estimation, the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence that he stored in the formation cores could still last for half a month. It was impossible for it to be burnt out so quickly.
* hum *
After finding the key to the change in the Soul Refining Formation, Xing Jue did not dare to be negligent. With a slight thought, the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence that was not far away instantly flashed to Xing Jue's side.
Xing Jue used his hand as a blade and waved it quickly. He began to cut the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence in large pieces and then threw them into the eight formation cores of the Soul Refining Formation. Under Xing Jue's throwing, the eight formation cores that stored the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence were quickly filled up.
As soon as the formation cores were filled up, the black gas disappeared. The Soul Refining Formation began to recover and operate normally.
"Hu ~ ~ ~" Seeing that the Soul Refining Formation had returned to normal, Xing Jue finally let out a sigh of relief.
The main driving energy of the Soul Refining Formation was Xing Jue's Soul Force. The main supporting resource was the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence. Both of these were indispensable. If the supply was insufficient, it would lead to the destruction of the Soul Refining Formation.
This was something that Xing Jue did not want to see. Although he was afraid of failure, the most important thing was that the Soul Exalt had already been refined by the Soul Refining Formation and could only be reassembled after a year. If anything happened to the Soul Refining Formation at this time, it would mean that the Soul Exalt would die along with it.
"Hiss ~"
But at this moment, an ear-piercing sound suddenly came from the Soul Refining Formation. The eight formation cores that Xing Jue had just filled up were actually empty again.
The Soul Refining Formation that had just returned to normal started to emit thick black smoke like before. The system of the Soul Refining Formation also started to become chaotic.
"Damn it, what's going on?" The look on Xing Jue's face was extremely ugly. Hurriedly, he used the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence to fill up the eight formation cores again.
It didn't take long for the Soul Refining Formation to return to normal. But this time, Xing Jue didn't dare to be careless. He walked up to the Soul Refining Formation to inspect it in order to find the problem.
But with Xing Jue's skill as a craftsman, he couldn't tell what was wrong at all. Soon enough, the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence in the eight formation cores disappeared as if it had evaporated. He couldn't find the cause.
"Crap, I really can't control the Soul Refining Formation with my current strength."
"This year is a crucial time for me to refine my body. But the Soul Refining Formation has changed so quickly. Does this mean … that I, Xing Jue, will fail?"
After filling up the eight formation cores, Xing Jue looked at the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence that had shrunk a lot. Then he looked at the Soul Exalt lying in the center of the Soul Refining Formation. Now that the Soul Exalt had been disintegrated by the Soul Refining Formation, Xing Jue was extremely anxious.
In just a few moments, he had used up the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence that could maintain the Soul Refining Formation for three months. If this continued, the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence would be completely used up and the Soul Exalt would die.
Thinking about how the Soul Exalt had gone through untold hardships to gather all the materials needed to refine his body, only to have it all go down the drain. Xing Jue's heart was filled with a sense of unease.
The Soul Exalt had brought him away from the Shura Continent to the Soul Source World. Not only did he save Xing Jue's life, but he also helped Xing Jue a lot. The two of them were like family.
But when he thought about how he was going to kill the Soul Exalt because of his lack of mastery in the art of crafting, Xing Jue felt a stabbing pain in his heart. He started to feel guilty and blamed himself.
"Sssss ~"
However, reality was ruthless. Just when Xing Jue was blaming himself, the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence that had just been filled up evaporated again. Without thinking, Xing Jue hurried to fill up the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence again.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Using the blade as a blade, Xing Jue turned into countless shadows. In the blink of an eye, the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence was shaved off by Xing Jue and used to fill up the eight formation cores.
"Buzz ~"
But at this time, Xing Jue suddenly noticed that the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence actually trembled. Bursts of strange energy were also coming from it. The fluctuation was like the heartbeat of a human. It was the breath of life.
"Ah ~ ~ ~ I'm so sleepy. What's so noisy?" The voice of a four or five-year-old child suddenly came from the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence. The lazy voice sounded as if it had just woken up.
And Xing Jue had heard this voice before. When Xing Jue first encountered the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence in the Asura Continent's Dragon Vein, he used this voice to talk to Xing Jue. The Ten Thousand Spirits Essence that had become a spirit finally woke up after being exploited by Xing Jue.
"Ah ~ ~, the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence that has become a spirit, you're awake?" Xing Jue asked a little embarrassedly.
"Hey, who is this little devil? Little devil, who are you? "A puzzled voice came from the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence. It did not recognize Xing Jue at all.
"Have you forgotten who sealed you?" Xing Jue smiled and changed his body to his original appearance.
"Wah, wah, wah, wah, it's you, you stinking little devil. I remember you, you audacious little devil. How dare you seal me? You must be tired of living."
After seeing Xing Jue, the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence made a sound like a pig being slaughtered. Moreover, the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence began to tremble violently. It seemed that it was angry.
But in Xing Jue's eyes, all of this was very interesting. Now, Xing Jue was not the weakling in the Asura Continent. He was not afraid of this Ten Thousand Spirits Essence at all. Instead, he could destroy it easily.
"Wah, wah, wah, no, no, why is my body so small? Little devil, what did you do to me? "
The Ten Thousand Spirits Essence roared loudly. It was obviously very angry, but the little boy's voice was very cute.
"Hiss ~"
At this moment, an ear-piercing sound came from behind. Looking back, the eight Spell Eyes that had just been filled evaporated again.
"Oh no …"
Seeing this, Xing Jue did not think much. He waved his hand and chopped at the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence. He was so fast that before the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence could react, Xing Jue had already chopped off a lot of its body and filled the eight Spell Eyes.
"Damn, little devil, are you going to waste my body like this? You … you … you … you wastrel. "
"Swoosh."
The Ten Thousand Spirits Essence flashed and disappeared in an instant. When it reappeared, it was already thousands of meters away. Moreover, it was still running away at this terrifying speed.
"Want to escape? I'm the one who calls the shots here! " The corner of Xing Jue's mouth curled up slightly. The space next to him squirmed and the Ten Thousand Spirits Essence that had escaped reappeared next to him.
Xing Jue was the master of the Soul Devouring Ancient Tomb. Everything here was decided by Xing Jue. Everything was under Xing Jue's control. Even if there was a small change, it would not be able to hide from Xing Jue, let alone escape here.
"Damn, damn, damn, it can't be, right? What's going on? Why can you control me? Could it be a storage bracelet? "
"No, no, even if it's a storage bracelet, how can it trap me if I want to leave? What is this place?" The Ten Thousand Spirits Essence did not seem to be stupid. After being summoned to Xing Jue's side, it seemed to have understood everything.
