Chapter 1305 - Chapter 1305 Chapter 542 The Cold Cry Lies Dormant Soul Sutra

Chapter 1305: Chapter 542: The Cold Cry Lies Dormant, Soul Sutra Soul Seal_1 Chapter 1305: Chapter 542: The Cold Cry Lies Dormant, Soul Sutra Soul Seal_1 Han Yi didn’t immediately pursue Wan Ming’s incarnation; instead, he first visited the Sky Candle Palace. With the Immortal Marks he obtained from the Void Tower, he exchanged them for two sixth-stage Immortal Swords and five fifth-stage Immortal Swords.

He planned to enhance the configuration of the Sword Realm. Together with the original three fifth-stage swords, with a collection of ten Immortal Swords, even if the Sword Realm was only at the fifth-stage, each sword taken separately was absolutely capable of slaying a Peak Golden Immortal.

Next.

He returned to the Green Shu Mountain Range.

He delivered a batch of Immortal Swords that he had phased out to the Xuandan Sect and inquired about the development of the sect. He found that apart from Lian Tingxi and two other Spirit Transformation elders advancing to Half-immortal, there were no other substantial developments.

The one who first ascended to Half-immortal, He Fengdi, was still a Half-immortal, and merely an ordinary one at that, far too distanced from becoming a True Immortal.

Han Yi wasn’t in a rush. He had calculated that with the influx of resources he provided, the sect should birth a True Immortal in a thousand years at the quickest or three thousand years at the slowest.

After that, as long as he was still alive, or Yuan Hong made further progress, with his special Immortal Puppet Body advancing to Golden Immortal, they could protect the sect. On this basis, a steady stream of True Immortals would surely emerge.

Actually.

One of the important reasons for the rapid development of the Xuandan Sect over the years was the protection of the Original Art Dojo. Previously, Han Yi had been at the top of the Age Candle Profound Immortal List, and such a reputation had a tremendous intangible impact on the sect.

Furthermore, Han Yi himself hailed from the Original Art Dojo and had a good relationship with Jin Ming Taoist. The Golden Immortal elders within the dojo had to some extent a special inclination to take care of the Xuandan Sect.

After returning to the Green Shu Mountain Range, Han Yi then went to the Jade Lake Immortal Realm and collected additional Divine Power Crystals from the divine force world at the bottom of Jade Lake.

Once fully prepared, he then headed to the Nine Thunder Immortal Domain.

This Immortal Domain was located east of Age Candle and contained two dojos, namely Taihao Dojo and Hongyun Dojo.

Back when Han Yi was at the Nascent Soul Stage, he had taken on a mission from the Immortal Court and had been to the Nine Thunder Immortal Domain, visiting Canglong Immortal City of the Taihao Dojo.

But this time, he was headed to Han Ming Immortal City of the Hongyun Dojo.

In the jade slips information provided by the Original Art Immortal Monarch, there was an introduction to the Soul Tower.

This organization, one of the three most powerful Dark Forces of the Daluo Immortal Realm, had its tendrils spread throughout the Immortal Realm, mainly because the primary business of the Soul Tower was intelligence.

Gathering intelligence, selling intelligence, and using intelligence to guide various forces to achieve unknown goals.

Many of the Soul Tower’s lower-level organizations don’t go by the name of Soul Tower but have other organizational names like Soul Tower, Ten Thousand Soul Pavilion, Soul Hall, and so on.

Back when Han Yi was in the Nascent Soul Stage, he had used intelligence from the Soul Tower to find the location of the Gu Clan, a dependent race of the Wisdom Realm, and had gone to encircle and suppress them.

The cultivators of the Soul Tower, mostly Immortals, were adept in Soul Skills, skilled in the artistry of refining souls, splitting souls, and controlling souls, making them very powerful in the acquisition of intelligence.

The master of the Soul Tower, Wan Ming Immortal Sovereign, had thousands of soul splits and was impossible to kill, no matter how many times one tried.

According to the intelligence,

inside Han Ming Immortal City, there was a lower-level organization belonging to the Soul Tower, a stronghold of the Soul Hall.

Speaking of the Soul Hall,

there was such an organization in the Yu Heng World; it was one of the four sacred sites of the Daqin Immortal Country at the time.

And the Immortal Road that Han Yi chose was primarily based on the secret teachings of the Ninefold Soul Tower of the Soul Hall.

After becoming a True Immortal, as he also focused on combat power, his cultivation in divine soul gradually evened out.

As for Han Yi’s venture to the Soul Hall stronghold this time, he naturally planned to infiltrate it, moving step by step closer to the upper-level organization to acquire clues about Wan Ming’s incarnation.

This path was also one chosen by other Immortals previously, as the Soul Tower organization was vast, and with a mix of all sorts within the tower, most were peripheral cultivators or Immortals.

Rumor had it that actual members of the Soul Tower organization were all True Immortals or higher, and over half of them were incarnations of Wan Ming Sovereign. However, these incarnations were hidden behind the scenes, never revealing themselves; the operation of the Soul Tower primarily depended on the Immortals of the Soul Tower who were not Wan Ming’s incarnations.

Moreover,

not everyone could become an incarnation of Wan Ming Sovereign. All his incarnations had to merge consciousness at the moment of becoming an Immortal, so the Immortals within the Soul Tower organization didn’t worry about suddenly transforming into one of Wan Ming’s incarnations.

The requirements to become a Wan Ming incarnation were quite strict; it was necessary for the divine soul attributes to match, and it was a one in a billion chance. Otherwise, Wan Ming’s incarnations would be spread throughout the Immortal Realm, and Daluo would have already belonged to Wan Ming Sovereign, and he would have ascended to Ancestor or even Heavenly Sovereign by now.

In fact, many low-level cultivators in the outer areas of the Soul Tower wished to gain favor and become a Wan Ming incarnation, but they were essentially not qualified.

In the jade slips provided by the Original Art Immortal Monarch, there was another extremely important piece of intelligence.

That was, all members of the Soul Tower and its subsidiary organizations, whether they were official members or peripheral ones, were required to practice a Soul Skill upon joining.

The name of this Soul Skill was Soul Sutra.

The intelligence suggested that the Soul Sutra had ninety-nine layers, and members of the Soul Tower above the True Immortal Realm could cultivate up to the tenth layer.

Whether it be Wan Ming Pavilion, the Soul Tower, or the Soul Hall, this was true for both their internal and external members.

Moreover, cultivating the Soul Sutra required a Soul Guide.

From the jade slip, the form of the Soul Guide was not fixed; it could be a Pill, a Spiritual Artifact, or even a Spirit Stone.

According to investigations, the Soul Guide could only be created by Wan Ming incarnations at the Immortal Monarch level.

Soul Guides were not uncommon, and while the Immortal Court could trace clues to them, they were unable to track them back to their source, nor use them to search for Wan Ming’s incarnations.
