At the entrance of the stronghold, Elder Mu was surprised to see Xia Pingan's soul power surge after his return. He asked for the reason, and Xia Pingan told him about his encounter in the cave.
"Your Majesty said that you saw a Spirit Herder chained up in the cave, and your soul power surged after you freed him?"
"Yes!" Xia Pingan nodded. "If it wasn't for that person being chained up and struggling, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been his match. Elder Mu, do you know who that person is?"
Elder Mu sighed. "That should be a Spirit Herder in the stronghold. After being infected by demonic energy, he banished himself to the cave and locked himself up to resist the demonic energy. Your Majesty, if you encounter such a Spirit Herder in the future, you must be careful. This person can resist the demonic energy's corruption and still retain part of his mind. However, some Spirit Herders can't resist the demonic energy's corruption and will completely degenerate. They are extremely dangerous!"
"Are there many Spirit Herders contaminated by demonic energy?"
"There must be some left after the battle, but there shouldn't be too many!"
"That person's soul power is so strong. What rank was he when he was in the stronghold?"
"He should be an intermediate Spirit Herder. Although Your Majesty's soul power is very strong now, the number of Astral Souls that Your Majesty is in charge of isn't many, so you can't become an intermediate Spirit Herder yet. Your Majesty can't learn some of the spells and secret techniques of intermediate Spirit Herders for the time being!"
"It doesn't matter. I'll learn the Soul Refining Secret Technique first. It's very useful to me. After I master the Soul Refining Secret Technique, I'll slowly find an opportunity to kill the Horseshoe Beetle and become an intermediate Spirit Herder!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, please follow me. I'll take Your Majesty to learn the Soul Refining Secret Technique!" After Elder Mu finished speaking, he floated towards the stronghold. Xia Pingan followed him all the way, and the gate of the stronghold behind the two of them quietly closed.
Elder Mu led Xia Pingan all the way to a tall building called the Holy Soul Hall.
The Holy Soul Hall was empty, but it was still grand and solemn, with a solemn and sacred aura.
In the main hall of the Holy Soul Hall, Xia Pingan saw a tall emerald stone tablet. There was a groove on the tablet that one could put their hand in, and the words' Soul Refining Secret Technique 'were written in gold.
Seeing the emerald stone tablet, Xia Pingan felt his heartbeat quicken. The Soul Refining Secret Technique included the Soul Splitting Technique, which was an authentic secret technique to transform a magic tool into a soul tool......... he didn't know what kind of techniques outside who knew the technique of the Soul Splitting Soul, or whether they were complete... but the secret technique in the emerald Stone's was definitely the technique..... to him didn't know what kind of techniques, the techniques of the Soul........ a.....
"Your Majesty, just put your hand on it and you'll be able to grasp this secret technique!"
. Xia Pingan nodded, but he couldn't help but ask, "Why is the Soul Refining Secret Technique not in the Spirit Husbandry Palace, but in the Holy Soul Hall?"
"The secret techniques in the Spirit Husbandry Palace can be learned as long as the Spirit Husbandry's level is high enough. However, not everyone can learn the secret techniques in the Holy Soul Hall, even in the Spiritual Realm. There are many Soul Refining Secret Techniques in the Holy Soul Hall. Your Majesty, as long as the Spirit Husbandry's level is high enough, you can learn them!"
"I see!" Xia Pingan nodded as he moved two steps forward and put his palm into the groove of the emerald stele. Only after a few seconds, a wisp of energy surged out of the emerald stele and entered Xia Pingan's body and consciousness. The knowledge and information of the Soul Refining Secret Technique flowed into Xia Pingan's spiritual body and consciousness like a trickle.
Xia Pingan closed his eyes as his eyelashes slightly quivered. In only a few minutes, the Soul Refining Secret Technique had integrated with Xia Pingan's spiritual body and consciousness. Like the instinct that Xia Pingan had practiced for so many years, Xia Pingan had mastered it all at once.
… …
After a few minutes, Xia Pingan opened his eyes, which sparkled with spiritual light. He moved one step back and bowed towards the emerald stele solemnly.
"I've been here for two days. I'm going back to the material world. There are still many things waiting for me to do. When I have time, I'll come back!" Xia Pingan said to Elder Mu.
"Then, I'll see you off, Your Majesty!" Elder Mu bowed towards Xia Pingan.
Xia Pingan glanced at the upper floor of the Sacred Soul Palace. He didn't go up; instead, he just nodded and turned around to leave the Sacred Soul Palace.
… …
Less than ten minutes later, Xia Pingan, who had entered Earth's spirit world, stepped out of the huge golden arched door and appeared in the spirit world of the Godslaying Insect World.
In front of him, there was a golden arched door. If he was not mistaken, the arched door led to the Spirit Realm of the Myriad God Planet.
In order to avoid trouble, Xia Pingan didn't enter the golden arched door. Instead, he ran towards the arched door that led to his Spiritual Realm Shrine. In the blink of an eye, he had crossed over 1,000 meters and entered his Spiritual Realm Shrine, returning to the material world.
… …
In the secret chamber, with the return of Xia Pingan's spirit body, the muscles and bones of Xia Pingan's body, which was sitting cross-legged, began to crackle for more than 10 minutes. After the crackling stopped, Xia Pingan's body became translucent like glass and began to emit a faint golden light. His muscles, bones, internal organs, and skin all seemed to have become translucent.
At this moment, if someone stood in front of Xia Pingan, they would be able to see the blood flowing in the blood vessels under Xia Pingan's skin, as well as the complete condition of his internal organs.
The translucent state of Xia Pingan's body lasted for more than 10 minutes. Then, the light gradually faded, and Xia Pingan's body gradually returned to normal.
When everything returned to normal, Xia Pingan opened his eyes again. He stood up and stretched his arms and legs.
F * ck!
With this movement, Xia Pingan realized that his current body was like a completely different one. Not to mention anything else, just the strength of this body had increased by more than ten times.
Xia Pingan's body wasn't weak to begin with. After all, he was a Five Sun realm Summoner. However, at this moment, the strength of this body was completely different from before. If his body's strength was comparable to that of a child's in the past, then the strength of this body was comparable to that of an adult Hercules.
Apart from strength, all other aspects of his body had been raised to an unbelievable level.
Take his hearing for example. Xia Pingan only focused on his hearing, and he could hear everything within 100 meters of the secret room. Even the sound of water dripping from the roof of a house 100 meters away could be heard clearly.
All the sounds formed a huge sound field. Xia Pingan closed his eyes and created a clear sound field image in his mind. For the first time, Xia Pingan realized that when one's hearing and consciousness reached a certain level, they could use their hearing to construct the outline and understanding of the world in their mind.
All these changes were due to the explosive increase in Xia Pingan's Soul Power.
If it was calculated based on Xia Pingan's initial Soul Power, the Soul Power in Xia Pingan's body had increased by more than 20 times compared to before.
Xia Pingan punched out, and the air in the secret room was torn apart by his fist. It was as if a cannonball had been fired from a cannon.
Xia Pingan only used 30% of his strength when he stomped on the hard rock floor of the secret chamber. With a boom, a large pit more than a foot deep was smashed open by Xia Pingan.
Xia Pingan felt that some powerful instincts in his body seemed to have been awakened. His Qi and blood surged like a dragon. This feeling was too wonderful and indescribable.
Xia Pingan took a deep breath and then spat out that breath like an arrow. "Puff …" The air arrow that he spat out broke a hole in the wall of the secret room five meters away. There were a few cracks, as if it had been hit by a bullet.
At this moment, Xia Pingan even felt that he could use this body to tear the Mantis Blade Bug apart without using any spells.
"Soul Power, not bad, not bad … Hahahaha …" Xia Pingan laughed heartily. The pressure that he had felt since entering the Godslaying Bug World had disappeared without a trace after coming out of seclusion.
Strength was the best way to be immune to all worries and pressure.
Xia Pingan took out the Seven Star Sword from his spatial equipment.
The Seven Star Sword was originally a two-handed sword and was not light. However, at this moment, the Seven Star Sword in Xia Pingan's hand was as light as straw. It was as light as a feather and almost weightless.
In the next second, Xia Pingan used the blade of the sword to cut his finger and dripped a drop of blood on the blade of the Seven Star Sword. Then, a surge of Soul Power gushed out and poured into the drop of blood.
Xia Pingan had poured almost an entire "ten slashes" of soul power into that drop of blood of his. This amount of soul power was almost twice the amount of soul power that he had in his entire body in the past.
After that drop of blood absorbed Xia Pingan's Divine Power, it began to glow. The blood turned into a golden human figure. The human figure's face was vaguely similar to Xia Pingan's. Then, the human figure picked up the Seven Star Sword and swallowed it.
The Seven Star Sword floated in the void. The sword body flashed with a brilliant brilliance and gradually merged with the human figure that had been infused with Divine Power. The golden human figure that was glowing was slowly absorbed by the Seven Star Sword.
Xia Pingan made a few secret hand seals towards the Seven Star Sword that was emitting light.
The shape of the sword body slowly disappeared and turned into a ball of flashing golden liquid. Finally, the flashing golden liquid turned into a human figure and walked toward Xia Pingan. After bowing three times to Xia Pingan, it turned into a ray of light and merged with Xia Pingan's body again. Just like fusing with the Realm Pearl, it directly wrapped Xia Pingan in a cocoon of light.
…
This cocoon of light disappeared after two full days.
After the cocoon of light disappeared, Xia Pingan had a strange black giant sword in his hand. It flashed with a chilling light.
This giant sword was somewhat similar to the Seven Star Sword. It was mighty, domineering, and covered with strange golden patterns. It was inexplicably similar to the steel whip of the "Black Cobra" that Xia Pingan had used before. The closer the sword body was to the hilt and the head, the thicker it was. After the sword body was broken, it became thinner and tighter like a snake's body.
Xia Pingan stroked this long sword with a smile on his face. Then, he shook it and the sword body suddenly split into 360 sharp sword blades. The middle of the sword body was connected by a snake-like metal. All of a sudden, all the sword blades combined into a whip that looked like a black cobra — — a sword whip.
Xia Pingan only made a light whip and a terrifying storm of sword blades swept through the entire secret room. The entire secret room was filled with the terrifying whooshing sound that could shatter humans and demons. There seemed to be countless stars flying in the secret room.
Xia Pingan flicked a gold coin into the storm of sword blades. In the blink of an eye, the sword blade storm cut the gold coin into countless pieces and turned it into golden powder. It then turned into a whirlwind of flashing golden light that danced in the secret room.
Xia Pingan withdrew the whirlwind and the whirlwind disappeared. The flying golden powder slowly fell to the ground and drew a complete circle on the floor of the secret room.
All the sword blades on the sword whip in Xia Pingan's hand closed with a click. There was not the slightest gap. The whip had turned into a giant sword again.
"From now on, as my soul item, you don't have to be called the Seven Star Sword. Just call it the Seven Star Sword Whip!"
The giant sword in his hand flashed with a black brilliance, which seemed to be a response to Xia Pingan's words.
Xia Pingan put away the Seven Star Sword Whip and proudly walked out of the secret room with his head held high and his chest puffed out.
