437: You two are monsters.
“......”
Xie Weilou’s brow twitched, and he immediately retreated.
The blood-colored coffin rushed towards Yan Ruyu, its lid opening to directly pull Yan Ruyu’s soul inside.
Crack!
The blood-colored coffin shattered the void and vanished from this world, but it did not take the gray Stone Embryo with it.
Xie Weilou glanced at it indifferently, then paid it no further mind, his gaze falling upon the bronze egg and the gray Stone Embryo.
The runes on the bronze egg were too terrifying; the gray Stone Embryo was rapidly melting, its power continuously being devoured by the bronze egg, and several new runes appeared on the bronze egg.
“Roar......”
A few breaths later, the gray Stone Embryo let out an unwilling roar, its body shattering into dust and dissipating into the world.
A Innate Stone Embryo, one that surpassed the Divine Court Realm, was gone just like that!
If any expert who understood what a Innate Stone Embryo was were to witness this scene, they would surely beat their chests and spit blood in anger.
An Innate object, if nurtured, could absolutely dominate the world, crushing all in its path—who could stand in its way?
Buzz!
After devouring the power of the gray Stone Embryo, the bronze egg swiftly flew before Xie Weilou; the runes on its shell had increased significantly, and its bronze light flickered, exuding a powerful aura that made it appear even more mysterious and extraordinary.
Xie Weilou reached out and gently stroked the bronze egg, muttering to himself, “I’m quite curious, what will you be once you hatch......”
Having said that, he put the bronze egg away.
This bronze egg has devoured the immense power of the gray Stone Embryo; will it hatch very soon? It certainly makes one curious!
Rumble!
Suddenly, an unparalleled fierce might erupted; in the sky, an explosion sounded, and countless stars instantly turned to dust.
The world became dim, the enormous star disc directly shattered, and the surrounding space was continuously torn apart.
“......”
Before Xie Weilou could react, he was sent flying hundreds of meters by this terrifying pressure.
“ten thousand souls banner!”
He immediately stretched out his hand, and the ten thousand souls banner flew before him, resisting the pressure.
Whoosh!
In the void, a long sword shot down and plunged in front of Xie Weilou; this long sword was covered in dense cracks, its light completely extinguished, and all its power gone.
A moment later.
Lin Qinghuang appeared above; she held the eastern wasteland tower, her face somewhat pale—this eastern wasteland tower was a great weapon, but each use consumed a tremendous amount of her energy.
“Whew!”
Lin Qinghuang took a deep breath, and the eastern wasteland tower flew to her glabella; she moved, appearing before Xie Weilou.
Xie Weilou asked with a smile, “Resolved?”
Lin Qinghuang mused, “The Sword Immortal is extraordinary; a remnant soul escaped......”
With the eastern wasteland tower’s might, any other Divine Court Realm cultivator would surely have had their soul scattered and turned to ash.
Yet Wang Ruoxu managed to escape with a remnant soul; the Sword Immortal was indeed much stronger than others.
The demonic energy on Xie Weilou’s body dissipated, the Other Shore Flower and bones vanished, his Profound Manifestation returned to his dantian, and the burial flower sword entered his storage ring.
He took out a pill and handed it to Lin Qinghuang, smiling faintly, “No big deal!”
Nine Divine Court Realm cultivators came here, and eight were slaughtered, with only one escaping as a remnant soul—this battle could be considered perfect.
Lin Qinghuang took the pill and quickly swallowed it; she looked at Xie Weilou: “You didn’t kill Yan Junlin and Yan Ruyu?”
Xie Weilou pondered, “One must show respect for the sake of others! These two are not simple; they can be considered good opponents, and it would be a pity to slaughter them just like that.”
If he truly wanted to turn the two of them to ash, they would have died even with their powerful trump cards.
Deliberately letting their souls escape could be considered giving the Xia Emperor some face, but these two would likely find it difficult to recover in a short period.
Lin Qinghuang chuckled softly, “Those who are surpassed by you probably won’t be able to be your opponents!”
“Who knows what the future holds?”
Xie Weilou shook his head.
Lin Qinghuang handed the eight storage rings to Xie Weilou: “I’ll keep Wang Ruoxu’s storage ring; the rest are yours.”
“Alright!”
Xie Weilou accepted the storage rings with a smile; eight Divine Court Realm storage rings—how many good things would be inside?
He glanced around, then with a wave of his hand, he put away two Divine Court Realm demon cores, Yan Ruyu’s storage ring, and the ten thousand souls banner.
This battle yielded immense gains, enough for him to use for a period of time.
After completing all of this.
Xie Weilou cupped his fists towards a certain direction: “Grand Tutor, what are your thoughts on this battle?”
Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang moved, appearing in front; he looked at Xie Weilou and Lin Qinghuang, a bitter smile on his face: “No thoughts! You two are both monstrous.”
Only after witnessing this battle with his own eyes did he realize the terror of Xie Weilou and Lin Qinghuang; even a powerful Sword Immortal was beaten to a mere remnant soul, which sent shivers down his spine.
Xie Weilou smiled faintly, “Then what about the Follow-upmatters?”
Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang mused, “Great Xia's Fortune Power, if you have any ideas, you can refine it at any time; furthermore, the name on that imperial dao scroll can also be decided by you, and even your name can be on it......”
When the Xia Emperor was planning everything, he gave Yan Junlin and the others an opportunity.
Similarly, he also gave Xie Weilou an opportunity.
Xie Weilou’s expression remained unchanged; he asked, “I’m very curious, what is the third step the Xia Emperor prepared for me?”
Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang said, “Great Xia's Fortune Power and one person!”
“One person? Who?”
Xie Weilou’s eyes narrowed.
Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang smiled faintly, “If your name is on the imperial dao scroll, this person will stand by your side! They all say that the world is vast, and dragons soar through the nine heavens; if you are a dragon, you shouldn’t be confined to this Great Xia; but if you are not a dragon, then go be a tiger—the Xia Emperor has also prepared the best retreat for you; in any case, you will not fail.”
Xie Weilou chuckled, “I probably know who that person is.”
Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang looked at Xie Weilou: “So what are your thoughts?”
Xie Weilou glanced at the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow and pondered, “The Great Xia Dragon Sparrow will be left here for now; I’ll come back for it in three months.”
Great Xia's Fortune Power, leaving a name on the imperial dao scroll? These were all shackles, and he naturally wasn’t interested.
Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang stroked his beard and said, “That works too! If you change your mind, you can come find me before the imperial dao scroll is announced.”
Xie Weilou smiled and looked at Lin Qinghuang: “Lin Qinghuang, let’s go back.”
There would be new struggles ahead.
Yan Junlin and Yan Ruyu were already out of the game.
As for Yan Ruyi, that woman knew when to advance and retreat, and understood how to be discreet; she likely wouldn’t get involved later.
The rest would be the competition among the other princes and princesses.
As for how those people would compete, it had nothing to do with Xie Weilou.
As long as it didn’t involve forces like West Chu, the Demon Race, the Devil Race, or the Nine Heavens Tower, it was fine.
“Mm!”
Lin Qinghuang nodded gently.
The two transformed into afterimages and instantly vanished from the spot.
Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang watched their retreating figures, a hint of emotion in his eyes: “This Great Xia cannot confine them!”
He gently waved his hand, and a formation pattern appeared, causing this area to rapidly recover......
