"Yes, Master."
After the red clothed old man received the command token, he nodded respectfully with the blue clothed old man, and they didn't dare be disrespectful in the slightest.
Their reverence towards the young man came from the depths of their bones and souls …
Even if the young man asked them to die, they wouldn't frown in the slightest.
It was only because this was their Master …
The supreme Master!
"Alright, all of you can leave!"
The young man spoke indifferently. At the instant he finished speaking, the figures of the two old men gradually shattered and vanished without a trace.
Their speed was so swift that only two material afterimages were left behind.
For a time, only the young man remained in the sky above the palace.
"It has been over 20 years … During these 20 years, even though my soul existed, it was constantly suppressed. Now, Hei Ming's soul has been annihilated along with his main soul, and I've finally reclaimed control of my body! "
The young man's gaze was like a sword as he looked towards the distance, and it revealed traces of sorrow.
"Now that I think about it … I've left for 23 years."
Suddenly, the young man's eyes became moist, and he seemed to have recalled something and was extremely sorrowful.
His expression was extremely complicated.
Sometimes it was filled with regret, sometimes it was filled with pity, sometimes it was filled with self-blame …
Finally, the young man closed his eyes as his tears wet his face. "If I could choose, I would rather choose those 23 years that I've missed and not this extraordinary strength!"
In the next moment, the young man didn't seem to have made any movements, yet his body shattered …
It turned out that it was only an afterimage.
The Swamp of Death, in the depths of the enormous pit.
The cave passageway in the enormous pit was extremely concealed, let alone the existence at the end of the cave passageway that was like an underground palace.
Presently, in the audience hall of the underground palace.
"The owner of that formidable soul from before seemed to have said that it was his main soul? He even said something about a soul … Looks like it wasn't his complete soul! "
Duan Lingtian stood on the spot as he muttered to himself.
"But it's precisely this incomplete soul that gives me the feeling that it's even more formidable than the soul of Samsara Emperor Wu … Unfortunately, after his soul was annihilated, it didn't leave behind any memories for me. This is different from the Samsara Emperor Wu. "
Duan Lingtian took a deep breath and closed his eyes, recalling the thrilling scene just now.
Finally, he came up with an answer.
Perhaps, the reason why he could fuse with Emperor Wu's lifetime memories was because Reincarnation Emperor Wu's soul had been hiding in his current body for many years.
However, that powerful 'soul' earlier belonged to an absolute 'outsider'.
"I'm still too greedy … This time, it's already not bad that I'm still alive."
Duan Lingtian opened his eyes, shook his head and sighed.
A man whose heart is never content is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant. Perhaps this was the current him.
In Duan Lingtian's heart, he was both shocked and curious about the existence that seemed to be even more powerful than the Reincarnation Emperor Wu's soul.
One could imagine that such a powerful existence would definitely have a rich memory.
If he could obtain the other party's memories, it would undoubtedly be a great gain.
Perhaps, he might be able to obtain something he'd never expected.
After all, in his senses, the other party's soul was even more formidable than the Reincarnation Emperor Wu …
Finally, Duan Lingtian returned to his senses, and his gaze once again descended onto the broken stone tablet. "According to what that powerful soul said earlier, this stone tablet seems to be the Devilseal Tablet … What exactly is the Devilseal Tablet?"
Duan Lingtian instinctively raised his hand with the intention of grabbing the Devilseal Tablet and looking at it.
His hand had just stretched out and exerted strength when a wisp of a bitter smile appeared on the corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth. Only now did he recall that even if Little Gold exerted her full strength at the third level of the Void Prying Stage, she was unable to move this stone tablet in the slightest.
I'm afraid …
His thoughts hadn't finished revolving when they stopped abruptly.
Duan Lingtian stared his eyes wide open as he looked at the Devilseal Tablet in his hand, and he was completely stunned. "I … How could I possibly pick it up?"
"Squeak squeak ~"
The little gold mouse stood at the side and was obviously shocked when she saw this scene, and she said via voice transmission. "Big Brother Ling Tian, how did you do it? You're actually able to pick up this strange stone tablet … "
"I don't know as well."
Duan Lingtian shook his head, and then he took a deep breath. "I don't feel that my strength has become stronger … Then there's only one possibility, this stone tablet has become lighter by itself!"
"The stone tablet has become lighter?"
The little gold mouse's figure flashed out and leaped onto the stone tablet.
Subsequently, her claws grabbed onto the stone tablet and actually flew up along with the stone tablet.
"Squeak squeak ~"
The little gold mouse that flew up with the stone tablet was extremely excited, and she didn't forget to send a voice transmission to Duan Lingtian. "Big Brother Ling Tian, it has really become lighter … But, why would it suddenly become lighter?"
Right, why would it suddenly become lighter?
Duan Lingtian looked at the stone tablet that the little gold mouse had grabbed and flew up, and his heart shook. "Could it be that it's because of that formidable soul from before? Because that soul left, so this stone tablet returned to normal? "
Although it was difficult to understand, Duan Lingtian could only think of this method to understand it now.
"The Devilseal Tablet … That fellow wouldn't be a monster that was sealed within this stone tablet, right? Just because my Spiritual Force extended into the Devilseal Tablet and opened up a path for him, allowing him to escape from the Devilseal Tablet? "
When he recalled what happened earlier and the words the owner of that formidable soul said before he was annihilated, Duan Lingtian was able to guess some things.
"If it's really like this, then I've really shot myself in the foot … Fortunately, my soul doesn't belong to this world and is protected by some sort of law. Otherwise, I would have died for sure!"
Duan Lingtian took a deep breath once more, and there was a slight lingering fear in his heart.
The scene from before was something he couldn't forget in his entire lifetime, and he didn't want to experience it a second time …
"Others might not encounter something like this in their entire lifetime, yet I've encountered it twice … My luck is really heaven defying."
Duan Lingtian laughed bitterly.
Gradually, Duan Lingtian's surging mind calmed down, then he received the mysterious Devilseal Tablet from the little gold mouse and studied it for a while, and after he didn't discover anything, he casually tossed it into his Spatial Ring. "Forget it, I'll slowly study it in the future."
Although he didn't know what the Devilseal Tablet was and what use it had.
But since the Devilseal Tablet was able to seal such a formidable soul, then he presume it had its own uniqueness.
Subconsciously, Duan Lingtian felt that this was a treasure, a treasure that was hard to come by.
Subsequently, Duan Lingtian and the little gold mouse carefully searched the Audience Hall for a while, and after they didn't discover anything, they prepared to leave.
Before they left, Duan Lingtian asked the little gold mouse to pluck out the only valuable nine Luminous Pearls in the Audience Hall.
When Duan Lingtian bluntly put away the nine Luminous Pearls into his Spatial Ring, the day was gone, and the entire Audience Hall fell into endless darkness, to the point one couldn't even see one's own fingers …
The darkness didn't last for long, and a strand of raging azure colored flames burned on Duan Lingtian's hand.
"What exactly happened all those years ago … This Senior Duan You was obviously killed by someone shattering his sternum."
Duan Lingtian had a complicated gaze as he glanced at Duan You's skeleton. "I wonder if that deadbeat father of mine is still alive … If he's still alive, where would he go?"
Duan Lingtian didn't hold any hope in his heart.
Duan You, the Half-step Void Stage Ancestor of the Duan Clan …
Even a Half-step Void Stage expert had died in the Swamp of Death.
Whereas that deadbeat father of his was only a martial artist that had just broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage all those years ago …
"You can be considered to be buried in peace if you stay here."
Duan Lingtian withdrew his gaze from the skeleton, then brought along the little gold mouse and left the Audience Hall.
He returned to where he came from.
When he returned, Duan Lingtian had already familiarized himself with the cave passageway, so he sped up and arrived at the exit in less than half an hour.
"Little Gold, let's go back."
After calling out to the little gold mouse, Duan Lingtian sat on the back of the little gold mouse that had become larger, then they left the enormous pit and returned to the surface of the Swamp of Death.
Subsequently, Duan Lingtian continued to search deeper in.
In the end, he still didn't find any clues related to his father …
After spending over 10 days, Duan Lingtian had practically turned the entire Swamp of Death upside down, yet he still didn't find anything.
"Perhaps, this is the best outcome."
Duan Lingtian brought along the little gold mouse and left the Swamp of Death.
Presently, both the man and mouse were slightly exhausted.
During these 10 plus days, besides not being able to eat and drink in peace, they also had to be vigilant against the surprise attacks of the demon beasts in the surroundings at all times …
"Big Brother Ling Tian, let's go to the nearby city and find a restaurant to eat."
Outside the Swamp of Death, the little gold mouse suggested, and her jade green eyes were filled with yearning.
"You little fellow, you're greedy again? Just nice, I want to find an inn to properly take a bath as well … Let's go! "
Duan Lingtian sat on the soft back of the little gold mouse and allowed the little gold mouse to bring him along as it flashed out.
It wasn't long before they arrived outside the city.
Fair Sun County's County City.
Duan Lingtian brought along the little gold mouse that had shrunk down and walked into the County City with large strides.
"This Fair Sun County's County City is about the same as the Swallow Mountain County's County City …"
After entering the city, Duan Lingtian brought along the little gold mouse and merged into the endless stream of carriages, and he casually sized up the bustling Fair Sun County's County City.
The County City was larger than ordinary small cities.
But it was still inferior when compared to the Imperial City.
Duan Lingtian found an inn near the bustling trade market at the center of the city, then he took a bath and changed his clothes before bringing the little gold mouse to a nearby restaurant.
After ordering a few signature dishes, Duan Lingtian sat at a seat by the window and gazed at the bustling stream of people on the road outside the restaurant. "It's really bustling."
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, seeming to have noticed something, Duan Lingtian looked towards the entrance of the restaurant.
Presently, a man and woman were walking in side by side.
The young man amongst them was around the age of 30, and he had an arrogant expression as if he considered everything beneath his notice.
