Chapter 1316: Chapter 1272: Slaying the Remnant Soul, Spiritual Treasure Tower (Xiaobai Reader Bonus Chapter)

"""(Seeking Monthly Ticket, Monthly Ticket, and recommendation tickets, all kinds of requests!) An evil entity!"""

Xiao Chen naturally wouldn’t mistake the palpitations instinctively emanating from himself; there was obviously something mysterious existing within this desolate space!

However, the fact that it could evade his Divine Sense was inconceivable to him. Presently, he was within the Mountain River Seal, while the Mountain River Seal was in the outer world. It was clearly impossible to exit!

Thus, he continued to move forward. In this world, living beings were nothing more than life; and upon death, they were no more than ghost spirits or wandering souls—everything in this world couldn’t escape these categories!

And since this unknown presence dared not show itself, it obviously was not confident in capturing him and most likely was waiting for an opportunity, waiting for him to let his guard down.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

The next moment, Xiao Chen took a big step forward toward the depths of the space, and immediately a flow of air kicked up a sky full of powder. Hidden within this curling air seemed to lie the unknown existence!

Thus, Xiao Chen, without stopping, crossed a hundred miles with just a breath, arriving in front of a tower.

This was a ninety-nine-story black tower with its copper bells under the eaves long fallen, the whole tower pitch-black, not even reflecting any luster, making it impossible for Xiao Chen to discern what sacred metal it was cast from.

Just like that, Xiao Chen stretched out his huge hand, unleashing immense power, seemingly ready to strike the tower.

At that moment, Xiao Chen’s lips revealed a cold smile. Indeed, it had slipped up. The next moment, in response to his attack aimed at the black tower, Xiao reversed his hand and grasped to the side!

Roar!

Under the vast power, dust flew about instantly. But amid the pervasive chaos, a piercing scream resounded.

Soon after, Xiao Chen momentarily saw an afterimage flash by; this afterimage was not any known creature’s illusion, but rather seemed to be a conglomerate!

From this afterimage, he saw numerous faces, likely that of residual souls.

There was a high probability they were once tribe people of the Spirit Clan, trapped in this space!

"Annihilate!"

Since it had revealed itself, Xiao Chen would not let it go. Immediately, divine power surged out, repeatedly slapping towards the spectral figure in front, instantly causing the earth in front to crack and dust to rise.

However, without any warning, his Soul World was suddenly filled with great terror. His body instantly retreated despite this, and his left shoulder was pierced, leaving a bloody hole that immediately started oozing with an aura of dead silence!

This was decay at its most potent!

Retreating a hundred yards away, Xiao Chen’s Blood Qi surged and converged towards his left shoulder. Merely within a breath, the pierced shoulder healed as the decaying aura was stripped away!

The power of decay, which is the aura created after a living being had been eroded by the long passage of time, would turn a weaker warrior into ashes instantly upon contact.

Expelling the aura of decay, Xiao Chen looked towards where the spectral afterimage with countless faces stood in front of the black tower.

It clearly wanted to prevent Xiao Chen from entering!

But at this moment, Xiao Chen furrowed his brows because, in his knowledge, residual souls were soul bodies, a sort of ethereal spirit body, but what appeared before his eyes now seemed to solidify into reality.

Even enveloped in the thick aura of decay it was nearly unmeltable, and in some parts of the soul body, there were drops of air flow, which were decay’s aura condensed into liquid form.

"Outsider... die!"

A fragmented idea transmitted out, just as Xiao Chen had conjectured. This residual will was indeed guarding this space. Although they had fallen who knows how long ago, this will had lingered on!

Nonetheless, it was unbelievable that this residual will could last such an immense time without any energy!

Moreover, for some unknown reason, it caused all the residual souls in this space to gather together, causing the conglomerate’s consciousness to be very chaotic.

In reality, this soul body was very ugly, like a big sphere covered in faces.

Buzz!

However, the next moment, a drop of blood from Xiao Chen’s original wound splashed onto the ground and was sucked in by this ghostly soul monster.

Upon the gray-white soul body, a strange fluctuation occurred; even generating a hint of life, one of the faces became much clearer than the others.

"Life!"

Abruptly, the face that had absorbed a droplet of Xiao Chen’s blood showed an expression belonging to a living creature, a very weak voice slowly emerged.

Buzz!

Instantly, Xiao Chen pulled out a Spirit Medicine. In a flash, it transformed into a streak of light and entered the face of the ghost, leaving only dried stems and leaves turning into powder in his hand.

"Enter my Spirit Clan’s fortress, die!"

Once it absorbed life again, the conglomerate’s will gradually revived. The next moment, thunder roared within Xiao Chen, unleashing an aura of destruction, deriving the laws of lightning.

Behind him, a Thunder Giant bellowed towards the sky, emitting an unparalleled aura of destruction.

The current Thunder Giant, having been refined by the Destruction Divine Thunder, had become more than ten times stronger than before, with a frame built of genuine Thunder Giant blood and reforged from the pinnacle of heaven and earth’s Destruction Divine Thunder, completely transforming the Thunder Giant’s God Form.

Speaking of which, he really needed to thank the avatar of the Purple Dragon Saint Child. Not only had it elevated Xiao Chen to a Six-Layer Heavenly King, it had also re-refined his God Form!

Thunder palms bearing yang and destructive energies, filled the space and seemed to explode it as if countless bits of air were compressed to the limit, instantly immobilizing the ghost face within a mere few yards area.

Roar!

Sensing danger, a look of terror appeared on the Ghost Face of the Remnant Soul, and dark qi gushed forth in torrents from its body.

Hiss, hiss, hisiss!

Thunder, the nemesis of filthy and evil beings, crackled and indeed, under the thunder, the dark qi began to make a hissing sound.

"Break!"

Xiao Chen’s eyes erupted with cold light as he shouted loudly, "This king wants to see what this so-called Spirit Devouring Mansion really is!"

Crack!

Amid the piercing hissing sound which mingled with the screams of the Ghost Face, Xiao Chen grabbed one of the faces and ripped it off from the remnant soul!

With that strike, Xiao Chen, holding the ghost face, retreated rapidly. Under the power of the thunder, the rotten and filthy qi was scorched away, leaving only a wisp of pure Soul Power!

"Eastern Spirit Devouring Mansion, one of the four great Martial Arts academies of the Spirit Devouring Clan!"

However, this remnant soul was merely a wisp, and Xiao Chen only got this much information.

The next moment, Xiao Chen once again moved towards the Ghost Face of the Remnant Soul. It was to be noted that there were dozens of faces on the remnant soul, and he had merely peeled off one.

Roar, roar, roar!

The remnant thoughts raged furiously, each face grotesquely twisted, screaming throughout the space while Xiao Chen’s vast destructive aura instinctively frightened it!

Crack!

Xiao Chen’s hand swooped down again, tearing off another ghost face.

"Spirit Devouring Mansion, Tower of Ten Thousand Spirits!"

Xiao Chen struck repeatedly, retreating with every blow, decisively without entangling with this ghostly being, leaving it furiously helpless!

"The Four Directions Spirit Devouring Mansion, nurturing the geniuses of the Spirit Devouring Clan."

"The Tower of Ten Thousand Spirits can scrutinize the spirit of all things, the grades of Spirit Items, the talents of living beings, and the combat power of Warriors, it is indeed the treasure of the Spirit Devouring Clan!"

"With ninety-nine levels, reaching the pinnacle secures the throne!"

...

Xiao Chen continued to grab ghost faces, harvesting their memories. However, these aggregated remnant souls were incredibly chaotic, and he had to continually extract useful information!

Even so, the remnants of memories he uncloaked were increasingly shocking!

Such wondrous items existed, that could even assess the talents and combat abilities of the beings of heaven and earth.

At this moment, Xiao Chen was even more eager to examine the black tower in front of him, but obviously, he had to deal with this remnant soul, belonging to the obsession of the Spirit Devouring Clan people first!

As guessed, before the great change of the Spirit Devouring Clan’s world, they were trapped in this space and ended up dying after exhausting their spiritual energy, and the remnant souls merged into one obsession.

Perhaps, before the long years, each one of them was a talent of the Spirit Devouring Clan, but sadly, fate played its part, as the Spirit Devouring Clan tried to place their race above the Great Dao, only to meet annihilation!

Though this remnant thought was strong, Xiao Chen’s thunder method restrained it; once it emerged from the dark, its fate was sealed!

Boom, boom, boom!

At this moment, the Thunder Giant behind Xiao Chen roared, instantly merging with his body, unleashing a sky full of thunder, with purple thunderbolt dragons dancing in the space, and the Space Wall Barrier bursting with clanging sounds.

He stepped out towards the remaining remnant thoughts, and instantly, the entire space filled with roaring thunder!

The wild thunder directly engulfed a patch of heaven and earth, ensnaring the remnant soul as Xiao Chen reached out to seize it!

Hiss, hisiss, hisiss!

Countless bolts of lightning endlessly struck down, almost each streak of electricity causing a dense cloud of black smoke to annihilate from the remnant soul, significantly weakening its strength with each hit.

Hum!

In the midst of the vast sea of thunder, this remnant soul finally vanished with a reluctant scream between heaven and earth.

This space, belonging to the Martial Academy of the Spirit Devouring Clan, also fell into the hands of the Gu Yuan Tribe.

Xiao Chen’s figure quickly entered the black Tower of Spirits.

When he emerged from the tower, it was already half a day later, appearing on the sixty-fourth level of the Tower of Spirits, his eyes filled with astonishment!

For with his combat power, just as he approached the sixty-fifth level in the tower, he couldn’t bear it and the moment he appeared, was immediately expelled by a vast attack!

That power didn’t give him any chance to resist!

This Tower of Spirits was truly a snatch of the creation of heaven and earth, only the terrifying race of the Spirit Devouring Clan could have constructed it!

He guessed that the grade of this Tower of Spirits was incredibly high, at least at the level of a Half Emperor Artifact!
