Just as Duan Lingtian extended his hand to wipe off the dust on the strange mark and his palm came into contact with the strange mark …
Whoosh!
Duan Lingtian's eyes flashed. The completely revealed strange mark suddenly emitted a burst of golden light. It was as though it had transformed into a dazzling sun in an instant.
Then, this small 'blazing sun' gradually faded away …
At that moment, Duan Lingtian only felt an extremely strange energy sweeping out from the wall and into his palm. It was so fast that it made Duan Lingtian's hair stand on end.
At the same time, Duan Lingtian's expression changed. That extremely strange energy swept directly toward his soul.
"Oh no!"
Duan Lingtian's heart was in a state of panic.
The soul was the foundation of a person.
If his soul was destroyed, it would mean that his life would wither away. All that would be left was a lifeless body.
Without any hesitation, Duan Lingtian's Spiritual Energy swept out from his soul in an attempt to stop this extremely strange energy.
However, this energy completely ignored Duan Lingtian's Spiritual Energy and swept all the way toward Duan Lingtian's soul. It was as though it would not stop until it destroyed Duan Lingtian's soul.
Boom!
The instant this extremely strange energy collided with his soul, Duan Lingtian felt despair. "Am I going to die?"
In the next moment, his soul shook, causing Duan Lingtian to feel dizzy.
"I … I'm not dead?!"
Duan Lingtian snapped back to reality. Only then did he realize that his consciousness was still there. His soul had not been destroyed.
"Elder Brother Duan, what happened just now? Why is the inscription gone? "
A pleasant and light voice entered Duan Lingtian's ears and pulled Duan Lingtian back from his excited thoughts.
Duan Lingtian looked at the cavern wall before him once more, and he noticed that the gold colored strange mark had vanished as if it had never appeared.
When he recalled what happened earlier, Duan Lingtian asked curiously. "Tian Wu, you didn't see anything earlier?"
"No."
Feng Tianwu shook her head. "I only saw Elder Brother Duan wipe off the dust on the gold colored inscription, and then the inscription vanished … Could it be that the inscription was drawn on the cavern wall? Was it wiped off along with the dust by Elder Brother Duan earlier? "
"Perhaps."
At the same time that Duan Lingtian nodded, his mood surged.
He didn't know exactly what that gold colored strange mark was.
It was precisely because of this that allowed him to realize that mark wasn't simple.
"Tian Wu said she didn't see anything? In other words, I was the only one who saw the scene of the strange mark emitting a scorching sun-like light just now … "
Duan Lingtian thought in his heart, and he looked at Feng Wu Dao and Elder Kong who stood at the side.
Feng Wu Dao and Elder Kong were obviously not alarmed.
"What exactly is that mark?"
Duan Lingtian took a deep breath, and his Spiritual Force fused into his soul as he started searching.
In the end, he noticed that there seemed to be something extra within his soul …
Although the strength of his current Spiritual Force was insufficient to replace his eyes and was unable to see what was extra within his soul.
But his Spiritual Force still told him that his soul had become different from before.
"This feeling …"
Duan Lingtian closed his eyes and used his Spiritual Force to sense the difference in his soul to the best of his ability.
In the end, he obtained an answer. "According to the memories of the Emperor Wu of Samsara, something similar would only appear in the souls of those demon beasts with extraordinary natural talent … This thing seems to be slightly similar to the soul brand of those demon beasts."
Soul brand!
Some demon beasts with extraordinary natural talent were able to awaken their soul brand and awaken the inherited memories related to soul skills before they became Demon Emperors.
These demon beasts relied on the soul brand to execute soul attacks in advance, which was also known as Spiritual Force attacks!
Whereas Little Gold, as a Jade-eyed Heavenly Mouse, was one of these demon beasts with extraordinary natural talent.
"But, according to the memories of the Emperor Wu of Samsara, it's impossible for a soul brand to appear within a human … Only after a human martial artist's cultivation breaks through to the Emperor Wu Realm would they be able to grasp the basics of the soul and control Spiritual Force against their enemies."
"Moreover, not every human martial artist is able to easily control their Spiritual Force against their enemies. Over 80% of human martial artists that are able to easily control their Spiritual Force against their enemies are Inscription Masters. There's also another portion that are existences that are innately stronger than ordinary human martial artists. "
"An ordinary human Emperor Wu would have to put in much more effort to control their Spiritual Force against their enemies than the former! After all, their starting point is far inferior to the former. Moreover, this type of human Emperor Wu, even if they concentrated on researching Spiritual Force attacks, it would be very difficult for them to have great accomplishments. "
Within Duan Lingtian's mind, the memories of the Emperor Wu of Samsara flashed past one by one.
"But, why would something similar to a soul brand appear within my soul now?"
Duan Lingtian was puzzled after pondering for a long time.
"Could it be related to the strange brand that appeared on the cavern wall earlier?"
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but think.
At the same time, for the sake of investigating, Duan Lingtian's Spiritual Force coiled around the existence that seemed to be a soul brand on his soul.
Om!
His Spiritual Force swept out and pierced into it.
In practically an instant, Duan Lingtian felt his soul tremble, and an extremely hollow voice sounded out within his mind out of thin air.
"Lucky successor, when you hear this message of mine, you should've already obtained the 'soul brand' I left behind …"
This unfamiliar voice caused Duan Lingtian to feel as if he was struck by lightning.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian faintly guessed who the owner of the voice was.
"I'm an Inscription Master from the Foreign Lands, and my pursuit is different from ordinary Inscription Masters. I've contributed all my energy to the research of soul brands … Those demon beasts don't need to break through to the Demon Emperor Realm to be able to utilize their soul brands to execute Spiritual Force against their enemies, and it usually causes us human martial artists to be unable to guard against it!"
"My research is to allow human martial artists to possess their own soul brand … But unfortunately, the facts prove that I'm still too naïve! I've walked through more than half of Cloud Continent in my lifetime, and when I arrived here, I was already in my twilight years … So what if I'm at the Void Interpretation Stage? After a hundred years, I'll still transform into a pile of dirt and return to the heavens and the earth. "
"When I'm old, I'm always more long-winded. I hope you don't mind … Although I haven't researched a soul brand that allows human martial artists to execute Spiritual Force attacks before breaking through to the Emperor Wu Realm in my lifetime, I can't be considered to have gained nothing. I used the seed of the Nether Soul Fruit as a guide and relied on my lifetime's attainments in inscriptions to finally leave behind a special soul brand … "
"It's also the soul brand you've obtained now. These words of mine are precisely what I left behind in the soul brand using the Voice Transmission Inscription. When I left behind this soul brand, my lifespan was about to end, and I decided to leave to find a peaceful place to spend the rest of my life. "
"Although this soul brand is unable to allow you to execute a Spiritual Force attack that can destroy the soul of another, but according to my estimations, it ought to be able to assist you in executing some special Spiritual Force techniques. As for exactly how it is, you'll have to rely on yourself to figure it out. "
"Besides that, since you're able to fuse with the soul brand I left behind, I presume your Spiritual Force is unique, and you're most likely an Inscription Master … I've left behind my lifetime's experience in inscriptions on the wall of this abode, and I hope it'll be able to help you."
When the voice reached here, it was completely annihilated without a sound.
Duan Lingtian came back to his senses, and his pupils constricted as shock arose in his heart.
"This Inscription Master is really amazing!"
Duan Lingtian took a deep breath.
After fusing with the memories of the Reincarnation Emperor Wu, he knew very well what this Inscription Master's actions meant.
Even if it was the Reincarnation Emperor Wu, although he was very interested in the soul brand of those demon beasts with extraordinary talent, he completely gave up after researching for a few years.
Because the Reincarnation Emperor Wu felt that continuing to research would only be useless.
Moreover, at that time, the Reincarnation Emperor Wu didn't need a soul brand at all.
So he didn't pay much attention to it.
As a powerhouse at the Emperor Wu Stage and a formidable Inscription Master, so long as he condensed his Spiritual Force and swept it out, there wasn't a single Emperor Wu in Cloud Continent that could block his Spiritual Force attack and not be injured.
"Compared to the Reincarnation Emperor Wu, this Inscription Master was much more persistent … He spent his entire life and finally researched a soul brand in the end."
The shock in Duan Lingtian's heart gradually calmed down.
After calming down, Duan Lingtian's heart jerked. "I almost forgot something … According to the Inscription Master's words, he himself seems to not know what use the soul brand that fused with my soul has now? Then, wouldn't I become his' lab rat '? "
Suddenly, Duan Lingtian realized that unknowingly, he seemed to have become that Inscription Master's test subject.
"I hope the soul brand left behind by that Inscription Master is fine … Otherwise, I'll really be finished by him."
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but laugh bitterly in his heart.
"According to what that Inscription Master said, the soul brand in my soul can't directly execute a Spiritual Force attack against an enemy … Looks like I have to study it for a while before I know exactly what use this soul brand has."
Duan Lingtian thought in his heart.
At the same time, he recalled the matter that the Inscription Master had mentioned earlier. "According to what that Inscription Master said, the soul brand that fused into my soul seemed to be constructed with the seed of the Nether Soul Fruit as a guide and combined with the inscription patterns. The seed of the Nether Soul Fruit … He really wasted god's given gifts! "
"Looks like it's very likely that the Nether Soul Fruit that grew in this abode was grown from the seed he left behind that day."
Duan Lingtian was suddenly enlightened and completely understood many things now.
"Unfortunately, a plant grown from a seed of the Nether Soul Fruit can only produce a single Nether Soul Fruit in its lifetime. Otherwise, I could consider moving the Nether Soul Fruit plant elsewhere."
