122: Lingyi's death

The simple words carried an irresistible domineering Aura, and the voice, mixed with a Soul impact, made everyone feel an insurmountable thought.

Ling Yi recovered from his shock, realizing his momentary lapse of attention, and for a moment, he was somewhat exasperated, shouting with a touch of annoyance, “Playing tricks!”

Immediately, he activated the Thousand-Armed Soul Body to attack Xiao Lei.

Once the thousand-zhang Soul Body moved, it truly shook the earth and shattered mountains, carrying an Aura of fearless determination. The Soul Body brandished its thousand arms, unleashing countless attacks.

The Soul Body had already rushed before Xiao Lei, yet Xiao Lei still maintained an unconcerned expression.

“Is this a trick of the Spirit Race? For a Soul to possess such combat power is indeed quite something, but I wonder if it can withstand the Huangquan Heavenly Fury?”

As he spoke, Xiao Lei's Heaven Rank Great Perfection Soul Strength poured out, transforming into a Soul Clone that floated above his head.

Immediately, a strange fluctuation arose, sweeping out like a tide in all directions.

The tide grew stronger and stronger!

By the time it reached the Thousand-Armed Soul Body, it had already turned into a monstrous tsunami, instantly submerging and annihilating the Soul Body!

One strike, disintegrated!

With the Soul Body destroyed, the backlash arrived instantly. Ling Yi felt a sharp pain in his heart, then his vision went black, and he nearly fell to the ground. His body surged with Qi and blood, his cheeks trembled, and then he could no longer suppress it, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

“Late Stage Six-star Dou Saint! Heaven Rank Great Perfection Soul! Heaven Rank High-tier Dou Technique! How is this possible? Just a few years ago, you were just a Dou Zun ant!”

With his Soul severely wounded, Ling Yi had temporarily lost the ability to maintain his position in the Void Realm and fell to the ground, looking up at Xiao Lei with an incredulous expression, his face twitching. He clearly had not expected to end up in such a state today.

After all, he had previously scouted the intelligence of the Purple Thunder Pavilion and had only learned that the only Dou Saints who regularly appeared were Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin, both only at the three-star level. That was why he dared to come and invade the territory.

As for the Heavenly Mansion Alliance, he wouldn't dare with a Six-star Dou Saint guarding it.

“I am from the Imperial Clan, you cannot kill me! You are merely a low-Bloodline commoner, you cannot kill…”

Even though he had already lost to Xiao Lei, even though he was about to die, Ling Yi's belief in Bloodline supremacy had not faded. It was a belief that had been deepened and solidified over hundreds of years; how could it waver?

Perhaps in his eyes, even if Xiao Lei and the others possessed immense strength, they were ultimately still lowly people.

“Setting aside the fact that your Spirit Race has long been annihilated, even if the Spirit Race still existed, I would still kill you without hesitation!”

Before his words finished, the long saber in Xiao Lei's hand cut through the Void Realm, crossing the distance, and beheaded him with a single strike!

Daring to attack his Purple Thunder Pavilion and even attempting to harm Xiao Yi Xian, killing him was already letting him off easy.

“Fortunately, there’s still the Soul Body to torment!”

As a member of the Spirit Race, the Soul Body would naturally not be easily destroyed. Xiao Lei merely probed slightly and discovered Ling Yi attempting to escape by burrowing underground. He then directly placed the opponent into a jade bottle, preparing to slowly torture him later.

After doing all this, Xiao Lei turned his attention to Medusa's situation.

At this moment, a dazzling Ten Thousand Beast Spirit Fire mark still burned on her forehead, and she was panting heavily, evidently having expended a great deal of energy in the previous fierce battle.

Seeing Xiao Lei look at her, Medusa quickly turned her head, lightly covering her forehead with her jade hand. With a casual swipe, the clear mark suddenly hid itself, but the sub-fire still burned fiercely within her body.

After doing all this, Medusa said in an annoyed tone, “If you had returned any later, you would have had to collect the bodies of me and Xiao Yi Xian!”

Xiao Lei instantly understood. He wondered why the Ten Thousand Beast Spirit Fire had lost a part of its Origin for no reason!

So, it was because of this!

Seeing her pretending to be angry, Xiao Lei quickly flashed behind her and carefully embraced her.

Unexpectedly, this time Medusa only struggled symbolically twice and did not try to evade again.

“My Queen has truly worked hard! Here, a reward for you!”

Xiao Lei said, taking out a crimson Medicinal Pill. It was of the same lineage as the Medicinal Pill Xiao Lei had fed Medusa when she first evolved, but its grade had already been raised to eighth-grade by Xiao Lei.

Seeing this somewhat familiar Medicinal Pill, a strange feeling arose in Medusa's heart, and a hint of shyness appeared on her face. Then, she gently bumped Xiao Lei with her fragrant shoulder.

“Who said I was yours! But the Medicinal Pill is not bad; I’ll reluctantly accept it!”

Medusa reached out to take it, but Xiao Lei suddenly pulled it back, saying with a mischievous smile, “Open your mouth!”

Medusa immediately recalled past events and instantly blushed. She was naturally unwilling to maintain her Queen persona in front of so many people.

Xiao Lei knew when to stop, merely teasing her a little, after all, it had been a long time since they last met.

At this moment, Zi Yan, who had come with Xiao Lei, arrived with Xiao Yi Xian. Seeing Medusa, Zi Yan immediately called out sweetly, “Queen Sister!”

“Zi Yan!”

Seeing Zi Yan, although it was within reason since Xiao Lei had returned, Medusa was still quite happy. She immediately took her hand, leaving Xiao Lei aside.

Fortunately, Xiao Yi Xian was understanding and gently took Xiao Lei's hand… Purple Thunder Pavilion, Phoenix Perch Mountain headquarters.

Compared to its desolation when it was first established, the Purple Thunder Pavilion was now much livelier.

Due to the Spirit Realm, the entire Central Plains was in chaos, and with the Hall of Souls hunting Soul Bodies everywhere, many people, for self-preservation and to strengthen their own power, eventually flocked to the Purple Thunder Pavilion, which had a Dou Saint guarding it.

The Purple Thunder Pavilion prospered as a result.

Xiao Lei strolled along, unconsciously arriving near the Dou Technique Hall. Coincidentally, he had recently acquired many Dou Techniques and Cultivation Techniques, so he thought of placing them there.

Within a few days, the Spirit Realm had been completely annihilated, and its territory belonged to the Purple Thunder Pavilion. The numerous small forces that Ling Yi had gathered were all directly disbanded by Xiao Lei.

Venerable Skyfire, who was stationed there, saw Xiao Lei walk in, was first surprised, then immediately stood up, “Pavilion Master!”

“No need for formalities, I’m just looking around!”

As he spoke, Xiao Lei took out numerous scrolls from his storage ring, including many Spirit Race Cultivation Techniques and Dou Techniques obtained from Ling Yi, as well as Dou Techniques he himself had copied, such as the Yellow Springs Palm and Yellow Springs Finger, which he was proficient in.

“These Dou Techniques are temporarily stored on the lowest floor of the Dou Technique Hall. First, raise the viewing permission to the branch pavilion master level.”

“That's all fine.”

“It’s just, Pavilion Master, I have something important to tell you!”

Hearing this, Xiao Lei was somewhat surprised. He had been gone for over two years; what could Venerable Skyfire need him for?

“What is it? Is there a problem with the Dou Technique Hall's system or something?”

Venerable Skyfire shook his head, “It’s Yun Yun. She sent a letter a few days ago, seemingly encountering some problems. I originally planned to send the Elders from the Pavilion, but since you’ve returned, I decided to inform you first!”

Hearing that it was a message from Yun Yun, Xiao Lei immediately reacted.

“Did Yun Yun encounter Hua Yu?”

Before Venerable Skyfire could say more, Xiao Lei's figure had already vanished from the spot…
