Chapter 308 The Speechless Remnant SoulThe sound waves swept through this demon holy space like a storm. The earth, the clouds, and everything else turned into nothingness under the impact of the sound waves. Only a lonely mountain and the dark lightning in the air still existed in this dark void.
"This...this is impossible!"
The voice echoed throughout the world, but it no longer had the calm and majestic tone it had before. Instead, one could hear a deep sense of shock.
After all, the Yellow Spring Demon Saint was just a remnant soul at this moment. Unleashing the Yellow Spring Sky Wrath consumed too much of his energy, causing his already illusory body to become even more transparent.
However, the reduction in physical strength was still no match for the shock suffered by the critical blow to the soul. He stared at the dark lightning in the air, and after a long while, he finally accepted this fact.
Huangquan Skywrath is his famous fighting skill. Over the years, countless strong people have fallen from this move, even many nine-star Dousheng. Xiao Yun is the first one who has resisted it head-on with his low cultivation level without falling.
"It is worthy of being the famous fighting skill of Huangquan Demon Saint. It is of high heaven level and specializes in the soul. It is indeed extremely strange. The speed of the sound wave attack is so fast that people who have not heard of the reputation of this move may not even have time to resist it!"
A voice of praise rang out in the dark void. Only after experiencing the Yellow Springs Sky's Wrath personally did Xiao Yun realize the power of this fighting skill.
Immediately, he dispelled the thunder around his head, stepped on the void, and slowly walked to the front of the mountain. Looking at the residual soul of Huangquan Demon Saint on the throne, he smiled and said, "Senior Huangquan, can you give me the Demon Saint's Essence Blood and Huangquan Sky Wrath now?"
"This is... Black Magic Thunder? You are really unique!"
Looking at the dark lightning on Xiao Yun's body, Huangquan Demon Saint's face was once again filled with shock, and he said, "Boy, as an alchemist, you are not only not afraid of the black magic lightning, but you even take it into your body?
Aren't you afraid that the black magic thunder will explode and blow your body to pieces?"
"My Black Demonic Thunder is actually a fighting skill. I have absolute control over it, so your worries are non-existent."
Xiao Yun smiled and stretched out his hand. The black magic lightning on his body instantly gathered in his palm and turned into a little thunder dragon, tumbling and hovering.
"Tsk tsk, there is actually such a magical fighting skill..." Upon hearing this, Huangquan Demon Saint exclaimed. If a fighting skill that can simulate Dan Lei can be strengthened like Dan Lei, wouldn't it be much stronger than the Huangquan Sky Wrath he created? !
"The world is so big, there really is nothing strange..."
After a moment, the Huangquan Demon Saint, who had calmed down his emotions, sighed in his heart, then looked at Xiao Yun with an ugly smile on his face.
"Boy, in countless years, you are the first person who can withstand the wrath of Huangquan. This means that you have passed all the tests of Huangquan."
Then, under Xiao Yun's expectant gaze, the Yellow Springs Demon Saint snapped his fingers, and a soul wave shot out, finally hovering in front of the former.
"Since you have passed the test, I will naturally give you what you need. This is the cultivation method of Huangquan Tiannu. Take it!"
Feeling the soul fluctuations in front of him, Xiao Yun did not take it down immediately, but first made sure that there were no hidden means before reaching out and grabbing it in his hand.
The moment his palm touched the soul fluctuations, the latter directly turned into streams of information and poured into Xiao Yun's mind. Suddenly, fonts exuding an ancient atmosphere were neatly arranged under the control of his soul, and finally gathered into complete methods of cultivation.
"I didn't expect it to be the Huangquan three-piece set..."
Xiao Yun closed his eyes slightly, and his mind entered his brain, reading the chapters in it. Only then did he discover that in that information, there was not only the method of practicing Huangquan Tiannu, but also the method of practicing Huangquan Finger and Huangquan Palm.
"Junior Xiao Yun, I would like to thank Senior Huang Quan for the gift!"
As the saying goes, one should be grateful to those who have received favors from you!
After accepting the other party's inheritance, Xiao Yun's attitude changed for a moment. He changed the address back to a respectful title and respectfully clasped his fists to express his gratitude.
"You are really direct..."
Huangquan Demon Saint smiled helplessly. He obviously noticed the change in Xiao Yun's attitude, but he didn't take it too seriously. He continued, "No need to thank me, young man. The power you have is the reason for you to obtain them.
My mission is to wait for future generations to defeat me and pass on Huang Quan’s lifelong skills…”
After saying that, he spread out his palms, and suddenly, thin streams of light golden color appeared from his illusory body. These streams all gathered towards the palm of his hand, and in the blink of an eye, they formed a ball of golden liquid.
The appearance of the liquid immediately caused the energy of the surrounding heaven and earth to surge. Xiao Yun could clearly feel the terrifying power contained in the golden liquid. 'As expected of a half-step Dou Di, his bloodline has mutated. His blood essence seems to be better than Zhu Kun's blood essence...'
Comparing it with the ancient dragon's blood essence he had seen, Xiao Yun came to this conclusion instantly.
I just don’t know what kind of demon beast Huangquan Demon Saint was when he was alive. He was able to cultivate to such a level that even Zhu Kun, the supreme demon beast, could not compare to him.
"Alas, an emperor soul is ultimately no match for a Dou Emperor... I have practiced for thousands of years, focusing on the soul, and only realized after my death that without becoming an emperor, everything is vain."
Looking at the golden liquid in his palm, a hint of reminiscence flashed in the eyes of Huangquan Demon Saint, and there was endless melancholy and unwillingness in his voice.
The reason why he couldn’t break through to the Dou Di realm was not a problem with Huangquan Demon Saint’s talent and direction, but rather, it was this world that restricted him!
"What the Demon Saint said is absolutely true." Xiao Yun nodded in approval. After living in the Douluo Continent for so many years, he already had a deep understanding of the gap between the Douluo Saint and the Douluo Emperor.
Why do those ancient families look down on other forces in Zhongzhou and even the mainland? The reason is that their ancestors have never produced a Doudi!
Even if the opponent is a nine-star Dou Sheng, what can he do? The Dou Sheng family and the Dou Emperor family are two completely different concepts. Perhaps in terms of top powerhouses, the two are not much different.
But the Nine-Star Douluo will eventually die. After his death, since his bloodline has not changed, the Douluo family will immediately return to its original form and gradually weaken over the years. The Burning Flame Valley is a very good example!
"Haha, junior, your talent is even better than mine, but unfortunately, you and I are destined to have the same fate. There will never be a new Dou Emperor in this world..."
Perhaps he wanted to retaliate against Xiao Yun, or perhaps he wanted to tell him the truth. After sighing, Huangquan Demon Saint suddenly said this.
"This world seems to be missing something. Otherwise, Huang Quan would not have been injured by the forced breakthrough, but would have become the new Dou Emperor long ago..."
"So Senior Huang Quan only existed for a thousand years because he had a hidden injury?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yun showed a look of realization. No wonder the Yellow Springs Demon Saint, although a ninth-order peak demon beast, had a shorter lifespan than an ordinary human Dou Sheng. It turned out that he had made the same choice as Xiao Xuan back then.
Strictly speaking, the real reason for Xiao Xuan's death was that he tried to break through the Dou Di realm by force. Due to the lack of source energy, his body was unable to withstand such a powerful Dou Di's Dou Qi, so he chose to self-destruct with the Soul Clan.
In the later stages of Dou Qi cultivation, the gap between each level will become increasingly larger. If Xiao Xuan had not broken through to the pseudo-Dou Emperor, and the energy in his body had not become uncontrollable, wouldn't it have been a matter of just moving his fingers to kill the Soul-Killing Emperor and other Dou Saints?
"Huh? After knowing all this, you're not surprised?"
Just as Xiao Yun fell into deep thought, the Huangquan Demon Saint was somewhat dissatisfied with the former's reaction!
He told the former the most secret information! But the latter did not show any reaction? Even if he took a deep breath, it would be fine!
When the Yellow Spring Demon Saint knew about this, he sat in the Beast Domain for countless days before he made up his mind to give it a try!
"Why should I be surprised?" Xiao Yun was also puzzled by the doubts of the Yellow Spring Demon Saint. The fact that there was no source energy was a well-known fact among the seven ancient tribes.
"Boy, this world lacks something that can help you break through to the Dou Di realm! Even if you become more talented in the future, you can only be as talented as Huang Quan at best! Don't you feel unwilling in your heart?"
"Haha, Senior Huang Quan, I am from the Xiao clan, one of the ancient clans. Naturally, I know that this world lacks the existence of source energy..."
Xiao Yun smiled faintly and said, if he lacked source energy, then so be it. Firstly, he knew where the only two source energies in the world were. Secondly, he didn't need source energy at all to break through to the Dou Di level!
"...A member of an ancient family?"
Huangquan Demon Saint was startled. Every ancient family had at least one Doudi strongman in their ancestry! Their descendants would naturally know what was needed to break through to the Doudi level...
I wanted to give the juniors a little shock with my status as a senior, but I didn't expect that the other party knew everything, and I was left speechless.
"Alas, never mind. Your talent is even better than Huang Quan's back then. In the eyes of others, this may be a gift from God, but for people like you and me, it is a tragedy.
In another hundred years, perhaps you will be able to reach the same level as I did at the beginning. Then you will understand how hopeless thousands of years without hope are. "
After he finished speaking, Huangquan Demon Saint seemed unwilling to say anything more. He flicked his fingers and threw the Demon Saint's blood into Xiao Yun's palm.
"Go ahead. I don't have much time left. I want to be alone for a while..."
Xiao Yun carefully accepted the Demon Saint's blood essence, bowed solemnly to the Yellow Spring Demon Saint, and said, "Goodbye, senior!"
The remaining soul of Huangquan Demon Saint survived in the world by relying on the Demon Saint's blood. Now that the blood has left the body, the remaining soul is about to run out of energy...
Then, his figure trembled, and the illusory body slowly dissipated in this world.
