"Ehem … ehem …" Ling Xian puked out more blood and bitterly smiled.
The Heaven Defending Emperor snickered, "The Broken Souls of Three Lives has sealed your soul. No matter what level you train to, your soul will not improve."
Nobody thought the Heaven Defending Emperor, who once ruled the City of Zhi Ge, would be defeated by a cultivator of the eighth level.
"What are you trying to do?" Ling Xian frowned and coldness flashed in his eyes.
Curses are the most difficult things to deal with in the world. Even if he was at his peak, he wouldn't be able to defend against it.
"How troublesome."
He truly had lost. Ling Xian was the one who had the last laugh!
The seven-colored light shot through the cloud and the energy of the soul descended.
"Wrong, I am sending you on your way."
"Even so, I am still stronger than you."
Ling Xian's eyes were cold. The heartless flower was hard to find. Even if he could cure the Broken Souls of Three Lives, he wouldn't be able to find it!
It was obvious that he was about to dissipate and wouldn't last much longer.
The Heaven Defending Emperor smiled, "I have told you the method. Whether or not you can cure the Broken Souls of Three Lives will depend on your luck."
However, there was still trouble.
Though his soul did not dissipate, his enlivener was broken. To reform it was not an easy task.
"The dead should be respected. I will listen to you." Ling Xian glared at the Heaven Defending Emperor and rubbed salt on his wound.
The Heaven Defending Emperor softly sighed, "I thought you were hope. I cannot believe you are more hopeless."
The breaking of the enlivener was already giving Ling Xian a headache. Now that the Broken Souls of Three Lives was adding insult to injury.
"The legendary undying soul sure is heaven-defying."
The Heaven Defending Emperor teased, "I told you, I will give you hope and then I will make you hopeless."
Ling Xian did the same.
"I lost … I lost to a junior of the eighth level …" The Heaven Defending Emperor was in a daze and his heart was dead.
The breaking of the enlivener didn't mean his soul was gone. Though it was serious, Ling Xian did not die.
The swordsman spoke softly. He appeared before Ling Xian in one step. His sword's will was overflowing and sharp.
The Heaven Defending Emperor laughed out loud, "Young man, I look forward to the day you feel hopeless."
The Heaven Suppressing Great Emperor responded domineeringly, going all out without holding anything back.
At this point, a legend of a generation had come to an end, causing everyone to sigh endlessly.
Unfortunately, he had no words to refute.
Since he was already dead, all grudges were naturally written off.
After that, the sky was dyed red with blood. His Nascent Soul was destroyed.
After that, his figure faded and disappeared without a sound.
This flower was simply too rare. According to historical records, it had only appeared once. It was truly hard to find in this world!
"Even if that day comes, you won't live to see it." Ling Xian's expression was calm. With the death of the Heaven Protector, his anger disappeared without a trace.
Yet Ling Xian's soul did not disperse. This was unbelievable!
"Hahaha, why wouldn't I dare?"
"You will too."
After saying that, his expression turned cold and he said, "It is impolite not to reciprocate. I will also give you hope, and then I will make you despair."
An undefeatable amount of Qi howled out of him. Rolling and rolling, it destroyed Ling Xian's spiritual energy in an instant.
Boom!
"The Heaven Protector cannot send you on your way. Let me do it for you."
Making his soul forever stagnant was tantamount to cutting off the path of his immortal soul. This was even crueler than destroying his cultivation!
To become an immortal king, he gave up his chance to become an immortal. He originally thought he could live a second life and reach the peak with a flawless foundation!
Ling Xian's gaze was deep as he stared at the Heaven Protector, "After this move, please go on your way."
"Haha, now this is interesting."
Therefore, his soul weakened and his entire being became lifeless and listless.
The Heaven Protector laughed out loud. The coffin emitted light and turned into mysterious symbols that surrounded Ling Xian.
"I have bad news and good news. Which one do you want to hear first?" The Heaven Protector's smile was bright and his silhouette turned even more illusionary.
Ling Xian spoke softly, "You died before you could fulfill your ambitions. Heaven Protector, you can only go on your way with regrets."
Ling Xian softly smiled without any sarcasm. However, in the Heaven Protector's eyes, he was slapping him in the face.
"How dare you!"
"You sure are narrow-minded. However, I will not argue with a loser."
"You really do give me hope before giving me despair."
"I have a curse called the Broken Soul of Three Lifetimes."
To everyone's knowledge, the rarest spiritual medicine is the Medicine of Three Lifetimes. But to experts, in terms of rarity, the Heartless Flower is above the Medicine of Three Lifetimes!
The Heartless Flower was far too rare. Even if he searched the entire universe, he wouldn't be able to find one.
The terror of the Heaven Protector's last attack was witnessed by everyone. Even a powerhouse of the ninth level wasn't confident he could stop it.
"Then let me tell you the bad news first."
The Heaven Protector's gaze was cold, "Have you heard of the Heartless Flower? It can cure the Broken Soul of Three Lifetimes. "
He had little energy left. If Ling Xian doesn't die, he will disappear. Naturally, he found this hard to accept.
This shocked everyone and their eyeballs were about to fall out of their sockets.
"Heartless Flower …" Ling Xian squinted his eyes. He knew the Heaven Protector didn't have good intentions. He was right.
Ling Xian's eyes shot out electricity. The Immortal Soul was heaven-defying and even immortal kings may not be able to tread on it. He was lucky enough to be on this path, why would he let the Heaven Protector cut it off?
Even though he was an alchemist and had countless recipes in his head, he felt his head hurt.
"I will tell you how to lift the curse. Isn't that good news?" The Heaven Protector teased.
"If I'm not wrong, the method to lift the curse is impossible." Ling Xian gave the Heaven Protector a long look.
"Don't be too cocky. Don't forget, I ended your path." The Heaven Protector's expression was heavy like water.
The Heaven Protector's smile was bright, but it sent chills down everyone's spine.
Ling Xian softly sighed. Breaking the enlivener wasn't a big deal. With his capabilities, it wasn't hard for him to reform. However, the Broken Soul of Three Lifetimes was a big problem.
"This technique does not harm the soul, but it will stop the soul from progressing. To those who are on the path of an immortal soul, nothing is crueler than this."
At this point, anger was useless. Plus, the Heaven Protector's soul was about to dissipate. He was the winner who had the last laugh.
"Dammit!" Ling Xian's expression darkened. He wanted to defend, but he had no strength.
The Heaven Protector was far too powerful. That last attack, in particular, was insanely powerful.
"You guessed right."
Yet now, he was about to leave this world. How could he not be hopeless?
"It seems like you know about the Heartless Flower. If that's the case, then I won't waste my breath."
"What's the good news?" Ling Xian's expression was emotionless. He had calmed down.
However, Ling Xian's soul didn't dissipate.
The Heaven Protector was stunned as well. As if he had aged a few hundred years, his silhouette became more illusionary.
"I have warned you more than once." Ling Xian spoke softly. There was no pity nor was there the arrogance of a victor.
The Heartless Flower was a spiritual medicine, one that only exists in legends.
