Chapter 592 - 590: Human Emperor Fist

Chapter 592: Chapter 590: Human Emperor Fist

The battle at the Fire Prison Spirit Land had an undeniably immense and far-reaching impact.

Xuanyuan Qingyi joined the Luochen Sect, Jiang Jichen had a powerful breakthrough, and he slaughtered all the people from the Holy Mountain.

Furthermore, Xuanyuan Qingfeng left the Six Paths Illusion Realm. From then on, its Human Realm was without a Young Venerable.

The Human Realm’s fate of being carved up by the other realms was sealed, and no one could change it.

A storm was brewing in the Six Paths Illusion Realm. Amid the turmoil, the people of the Human Race were either hunted down or forced into submission and slavery.

Jiang Jichen was currently hiding in a cave within a Forbidden Land.

Others could not set foot in such a Forbidden Land, but it was no obstacle for Jiang Jichen.

Inside the cave, a man and three women were all cultivating.

In front of each of them was a mountain of Ghost Soul Stones.

They were all refining Ghost Soul Stones to elevate their Soul Realm.

Even someone as powerful as Xuanyuan Qingyi, who was comprehending the Human Emperor’s Technique, still had to rely on Ghost Soul Stones to rapidly elevate her Soul Realm.

Hua Xiaoling was the first to awaken. Her talent for soul cultivation still lagged somewhat behind that of Ye Rou and Xuanyuan Qingyi.

However, she had already elevated her Soul Realm to the Nascent Soul Extreme Realm and could step into the Holy Soul Realm at any moment.

「Two days later.」

Ye Rou also awoke, having elevated her Soul Realm to the Nascent Soul Extreme Realm as well.

Of course, even at the same Realm, cultivators with different soul talents possessed varying amounts of Soul Power.

Though both were at the Nascent Soul Extreme Realm, Ye Rou’s Soul Power was far stronger than Hua Xiaoling’s.

As for Xuanyuan Qingyi, she was a prodigy the likes of which the Mortal World hadn’t seen in millennia, so her power was naturally even more astonishing.

The mountain of Ghost Soul Stones before her steadily dwindled, turning completely to ash.

「Ten days later.」

The void trembled, and a mysterious phenomenon manifested above Xuanyuan Qingyi’s head.

A spectral figure materialized, sitting cross-legged in mid-air. Its hands were a blur as they rapidly formed mysterious Dharma Seals.

Ye Rou and Hua Xiaoling were utterly stunned by the sight.

They were both incredibly familiar with the spectral figure; its statues could be seen all across the Mortal World.

It was the Human Emperor!

He formed a Fist Seal, profound and unfathomable.

It was like the mountains, the earth, the heavens, and all of creation!

This was the Human Emperor Fist!

By elevating her Soul Realm, Xuanyuan Qingyi had unexpectedly received the legacy of the Human Emperor Fist, which had been branded into the very fabric of the void.

Afterward, the phenomenon vanished, and Xuanyuan Qingyi finally awoke.

"Looks like joining the Luochen Sect wasn’t a bad idea. I can even use these supremely precious Ghost Soul Stones freely."

"In the past, even as a princess of the Human Emperor Clan, I only received a hundred Ghost Soul Stones a year. That was nowhere near enough!"

"And now, I’ve refined ten thousand Ghost Soul Stones in a single session, finally pushing my Soul Realm to its current limit."

"I also triggered the Human Emperor’s legacy from the void and obtained one form of the Human Emperor Fist."

"Heh... I never thought Jiang Jichen would turn out to be my lucky star."

Having awoken, Xuanyuan Qingyi was clearly in high spirits and rather excited, as she had rattled off so much at once.

Her soul had reached the Nascent Soul Extreme Realm. All she needed to do was raise her Cultivation by one more Realm and fully comprehend this stage of the Human Emperor’s Secret Technique.

Then, she would truly be able to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with a Young Venerable.

And surprisingly, all of these changes were thanks to Jiang Jichen.

She would have never dared to imagine this before.

Ye Rou giggled. "Xuanyuan Qingyi, you seem to be enjoying this quite a bit. You should find some time to let Jiang Jichen have his way with you!"

Hearing Ye Rou, Xuanyuan Qingyi replied with a meaningful tone, "Little Ye Rou, you know that boy cultivates the Demon Phoenix Technique, don’t you? In the Fire Abyss, he used its Demon Phoenix Aura to shield us from the black flames. You must have heard the legends of the Demon Phoenix, one of the Ten Ancient Fiends."

"So now, especially when you’re near Jiang Jichen, don’t you feel an even greater urge for him to... claim you?"

Xuanyuan Qingyi’s words were shockingly blunt.

"Hee hee... It seems our dear Xiaoling feels it too. And you, little sister, you’ve been with that big lecher Jiang Jichen this whole time. Don’t tell me you’ve already..."

At this moment, Xuanyuan Qingyi had lost all trace of her goddess-like demeanor. She was a complete Demoness, teasing the young girl.

Hua Xiaoling’s face flushed crimson as she frantically waved her hands. "Sister Qingyi, no... nothing! Little Chen and I haven’t... done that..."

"Impossible! You’re so flustered, and you’re stuttering. You’re definitely hiding something from us. I’m going to settle this with him right now. While he’s still cultivating, I’ll slap him so hard he falls into demon possession."

As she spoke, Xuanyuan Qingyi made a move as if to charge toward Jiang Jichen, who was still cultivating.

But Hua Xiaoling hastily blocked her path, saying anxiously, "Sister Qingyi, really, nothing happened! You mustn’t disturb Little Chen’s cultivation! It’s just..."

Hua Xiaoling was incredibly naive in front of her dear friends. Worried about Jiang Jichen and genuinely afraid that Xuanyuan Qingyi would disturb his cultivation, she didn’t hide anything and told them.

For a moment, the Ancient Cave fell silent.

After hearing what Hua Xiaoling said, Ye Rou’s and Xuanyuan Qingyi’s imaginations ran wild.

Both women even turned to look at Jiang Jichen at the same time.

’Damn it, I’m being affected by the Demon Phoenix Aura!’

Xuanyuan Qingyi cursed inwardly.

Then she grabbed Ye Rou and backed out of the Ancient Cave.

"Little sister Xiaoling, tell Jiang Jichen that Sister Ye Rou and I have some business to attend to. We’ll be leaving for a while but we’ll find him later."

In a flash, they were gone without a trace.

Hua Xiaoling was left stunned.

Inside the Ancient Cave, the group of one man and three women had suddenly become just a lone man and woman.

However, Jiang Jichen was still deep in his cultivation, absorbing Ghost Soul Stones at a terrifying rate.

Twenty days had now passed since Xuanyuan Qingyi had awoken.

Jiang Jichen was still continuously refining and absorbing Ghost Soul Stones.

He hadn’t touched the nine Ghost Soul Stone Kings, saving them for a critical breakthrough.

By now, he had refined two hundred thousand Ghost Soul Stones, elevating his Seven-Colored Divine Soul to the Nascent Soul Extreme Realm.

But Jiang Jichen knew that once he found the subsequent parts of the Ancient Source Character Scripture and his Spirit Cultivator path reached the Nascent Soul Realm, his soul cultivation could advance even further.

’Break the limits, surpass everything!’

’At that time, the nine Ghost Soul Stone Kings would come into play.’

’The remaining two hundred thousand Ghost Soul Stones could be brought back for the sect members.’

Two hundred thousand Ghost Soul Stones was an absolutely astonishing quantity, enough to raise the Soul Realm of every disciple in the Luochen Sect by another step.

After all, an ordinary Cultivator’s limit was refining a mere ten Nether Stones.

Few could ever hope to compare with a once-in-a-millennium prodigy like Xuanyuan Qingyi.

To say nothing of comparing them to a supreme freak of nature like Jiang Jichen.

Even a Soul Array Master like Liu Yang could probably refine no more than a thousand Ghost Soul Stones.

When Jiang Jichen awoke, he saw Hua Xiaoling sitting nearby, watching over him.

"Little Chen, you’re awake?"

Hua Xiaoling exclaimed happily, seeing that Jiang Jichen was awake.

"Xiaoling, where are Xuanyuan Qingyi and Ye Rou?"

"Sister Qingyi and Sister Ye Rou said they had something to take care of, so they left. They said they’ll come find you later," Hua Xiaoling answered.

"Haha... Good, they’re gone. Now it’s just the two of us. Isn’t this nice?"

Jiang Jichen said with a laugh.
