Blast to smithereens
"Xu Jia, you're still too young."
The warrior called Elder Jin shook his head and said, "Do you know why the higher-ups didn't kill Chu Guang?"
"Why didn't you kill Chu Guang? Isn't it because Chu Guang still has value? "Xu Jia was puzzled.
"Hehe, this is where your youth lies." Elder Jin smiled faintly and said, "Chu Guang is not a simple man. Don't underestimate him just because he's in the early stages of the Fate Realm. He's a member of the Soul Divine Sect, and he has a close relationship with an elder of the sect."
"What? Soul Ancestor! "
Upon hearing that, Xu Jia revealed an extremely horrified expression.
In the Heavenly Devil Region, the Black Soul Sect was a colossus.
If the Corpse Sect was a first-rate power, then the Black Soul Sect was a superpower that was above them!
"Elder Jin, why would the Soul Sect send someone to the Great Xia Kingdom?" Xu Jia asked in a grave tone.
"Don't ask about this for now. You'll know why when the time comes."
Elder Jin waved his hand, signaling Xu Jia to take a few steps back.
Xu Jia understood and left the room.
Buzz!
As soon as Xu Jia stepped out of the room, Elder Jin fully unleashed his senses and carefully inspected the room.
"Hmm?"
After a while, Elder Jin retracted his perception and stood in front of the eastern wall.
"This wall is strange."
After pondering for a moment, Elder Jin clenched his right fist and punched the wall.
Rumble!
Elder Jin's cultivation was at the peak of the Manifestation realm. His punch easily blasted a hole in the wall.
"Found it!"
The moment the wall was blasted open, Elder Jin was as excited as if he had discovered a new continent.
His eyes were fixed on the thing hanging in the gap, and his face was full of joy.
"Picture scroll?"
Xu Jia followed Elder Jin's line of sight and his gaze landed on a painting.
"Don't underestimate this scroll. The reason why the higher-ups haven't killed Chu Guang is partly because of his identity and partly because they want this scroll."
Elder Jin carefully removed the scroll and explained, "The scroll has its own space. Most importantly, there is a Soul Tree in the scroll."
"Soul Tree, it's the Soul Tree!"
Xu Jia was very surprised to learn that Chu Guang was a member of the Black Soul Sect.
However, Xu Jia jumped to his feet after learning that there was a Soul Tree in the painting.
The Soul Tree was a treasure.
In terms of cultivating soul power, the Soul Tree was a rare treasure. Some people even viewed it as a supreme treasure.
One had to know that a Soul Tree could create many martial artists with heaven-defying soul force.
"If I'm not wrong, Chu Guang must be in the painting. Let's go in," Elder Jin said darkly.
"Go in? How do we get in? "Xu Jia frowned.
"Go in like this!"
Elder Jin leaped up and directly charged towards the painting.
The next moment, what Xu Jia had expected did not happen. Instead, Elder Jin's body instantly disappeared when he came into contact with the scroll.
"I see."
Realization dawned on Xu Jia. He immediately leaped up and charged toward the painting.
Hua!
The space within the scroll trembled slightly, and Elder Jin and Xu Jia appeared.
"This is the space inside the painting?"
After entering the scroll, Xu Jia looked left and right in shock.
"Is that the Soul Tree … No, there's someone under the Soul Tree!"
Finally, Xu Jia's gaze fell on a towering tree not far away.
When Xu Jia looked around, he actually saw an acquaintance under the Soul Tree.
"Elder Jin, the person under the Soul Tree is Ning Yue, the one who saved Chu Guang!" Xu Jia pointed at Ning Yue, who was sitting cross-legged under the Soul Tree, and said in a deep voice.
"Let's go and take a look."
Elder Jin didn't care about the consequences. He instantly tore through the void and dashed toward the Soul Tree.
Elder Jin and Xu Jia appeared in front of Ning Yue in a short while.
"You guys got here pretty quickly."
It wouldn't be right if he didn't welcome them when they were already in front of him.
Ning Yue got up slowly and said calmly, "I thought you guys would need a long time to find this place. Who would've thought that you guys would find this place in just one day? What a pity …"
At this point, Ning Yue paused for a moment before he continued, "One at the peak of the Manifestation Realm and the other at the half-step Manifestation Realm. If you had found me a day ago, I might have surrendered. But now, I'm afraid I'll disappoint you."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Tell me, where is Chu Guang!" Elder Jin scolded.
"Ning Yue, you're only at the advanced-stage of Yin-Yang State. Killing you is as easy as killing an ant for me," Xu Jia said coldly.
"Don't worry, I'll answer your questions slowly."
Ning Yue waved his hand. "First, I've already killed Chu Guang. Second, I'm not at the advanced-stage of Yin-Yang State. I'm … at this level!"
As he spoke, Ning Yue's aura exploded and shot into the sky. Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Ning Yue's aura was so powerful that it caused the air to tremble.
Not long ago, Ning Yue had used one-third of the Shengyang Pills produced by the flower bud and the Royal Grade Origin Crystals in his storage ring to successfully advance to the half-step Manifestation State.
After advancing to the half-step Manifestation State, the density of the Origin Qi in Ning Yue's body was comparable to that of a peak Manifestation State martial artist.
"Gulp, peak Manifestation State!" Xu Jia couldn't help but swallow when he felt the aura exuding from Ning Yue's body.
"What peak Manifestation State? He's only at the half-step Manifestation State."
Elder Jin's words woke Xu Jia up.
"How dare you lie to me! You're courting death!"
Xu Jia felt humiliated after being reminded by Elder Jin. He stomped on the ground and rushed out in an instant.
At the same time, violent Origin Qi gathered on his wrist and shot toward Ning Yue's head.
In the Corpse Yin Sect, although Xu Jia wasn't one of the top geniuses, he could still be ranked among the top.
Xu Jia, who was at the half-step Manifestation State, had a comprehensive strength between the peak of the mid-stage Manifestation State and the late-stage Manifestation State.
Xu Jia used all his strength in this punch. He wanted to seriously injure or even kill Ning Yue in one move.
"I'll play with you."
Ning Yue's face was devoid of joy or sorrow. Violent Yuan Qi also appeared on his fist as he backhanded his fist and collided with Xu Jia's fist.
Crack! "Ah!"
In the next moment, a crisp sound accompanied by a pig's squeal resounded in the area.
"My hand!"
Xu Jia's body retreated several feet and only stabilized himself when he fell to the ground.
Puff!
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Xu Jia covered his bloody fist and roared hysterically.
"I'm sorry. Since you're from the Corpse Yin Sect, I hit you a little too hard."
Ning Yue instantly withdrew his aura and returned to normal. He said, "Actually, you should feel lucky. If I didn't want to save some Origin Qi to deal with this old man at the peak of the Manifestation State, I could have easily killed you with that palm just now.
"Right, it was the kind of attack that would leave nothing behind."
Puff!
