Martial Sovereign of Myriad Realms

Wang Aojing cried out in shock. The pure and holy Light Ball was emitting a monstrous amount of soul energy, causing his soul to be filled with an incomparable desire. He was eager to seize the Light Ball. This was the legendary Soul Essence.    

Liu Lianyi and the others were also attracted by the Light Ball. Hearing Wang Aojing's words, they were even more shocked.    

Soul Essence was a treasure that could strengthen one's soul. If one absorbed a large amount of Soul Essence, it could even cause one's soul to transform.    

Once one's soul transformed before reaching the Martial Soul Realm, one would be able to fuse with the transformed soul and condense the most advanced Martial Soul, the Holy Martial Soul.    

With the Holy Martial Soul, one would have the possibility of achieving the Saint Realm. Although the Heaven and Earth Law did not allow the Saint Realm to appear now.    

However, Martial Soul Realm experts with the Holy Martial Soul were still much stronger than ordinary Martial Soul Realm experts.    

It could be said that Soul Essence could increase the upper limit of a Martial Cultivator's Martial Soul Realm. Even after the soul transformed, absorbing Soul Essence would still have an effect, increasing the upper limit of the Martial Soul Realm.    

Legend had it that in ancient times, there was a heaven-defying existence who had transformed his soul at the Qi Sect Realm and absorbed a large amount of Soul Essence, causing his soul to almost materialize.    

When this heaven-defying existence broke through to the Martial Soul Realm, his Martial Soul also became the Holy Martial Soul. It was also the most powerful Holy Martial Soul. When he reached the first stage of the Martial Soul Realm, he was able to fight against the Saint Realm!    

How could Wang Aojing and the others remain indifferent when they saw such an extraordinary item? Their eyes instantly turned red.    

"This is mine!"    

Wang Aojing almost lost his mind. He had been stuck at Stage Four of the Qi Sect for decades. If he didn't have any special opportunities, he might not have made a breakthrough in his life.    

However, the soul essence in front of him could nourish his soul and stimulate his body. Perhaps he could use this opportunity to make another breakthrough.    

As he spoke, Wang Aojing rushed towards the soul essence without caring about anything else.    

On the other hand, Ye Feng, Zhang Tianwang, and the others had never heard of the soul essence before. Therefore, although they were touched by the Light Ball, they did not react much. Instead, they were more concerned about Wang Aojing and the others who had suddenly appeared.    

"It's you?"    

At this moment, Ye Feng also saw the face of the person who had come. Wasn't this the Fifth Hall Master of the Longevity City, Wang Aojing?    

"Why are you here?"    

Ye Feng narrowed his eyes. He did not think that Wang Aojing would coincidentally appear in this hidden secret realm to meet him. It was most likely that this guy had followed him all the way here.    

Since it was a pursuit, then Wang Aojing and the others' plans were self-evident.    

Just as Ye Feng was about to kill Wang Aojing with killing intent, Wang Aojing also rushed forward and pounced towards the soul essence floating in the air.    

The soul essence seemed to have the instinct to avoid danger. Wang Aojing's approach made the originally motionless soul essence start to dodge. Furthermore, the soul essence's speed was not slow. Wang Aojing was caught off guard and was actually able to escape.    

"Where are you running to?!"    

Seeing that the soul essence was dodging, Wang Aojing's face immediately tensed up. Without saying a word, he chased after it.    

Ye Feng frowned when he saw this scene. He did not understand why Wang Aojing cared so much about the Sacred Light Ball. Although this Light Ball contained a very dense amount of soul energy, it shouldn't be so reckless in chasing after it, right?    

"Brat, this is soul essence."    

At this moment, the Shattering Void Sword's voice sounded in Ye Feng's mind, informing him about the soul essence.    

"What?"    

When Ye Feng found out about the effects of the soul essence, he was immediately shocked. This soul essence was far more precious than he had expected. He had miscalculated.    

At this moment, Wang Aojing had already caught up to the soul essence. He was only one step away from it. Seeing this, Ye Feng immediately rushed forward.    

"Old thing, this is not something you can touch!"    

Ye Feng shouted, wanting to stop Wang Aojing from seizing the soul essence.    

However, the distance between Ye Feng and Wang Aojing was far too great. Even if he used his full speed, he would not be able to stop Wang Aojing. He could only watch as the soul essence was grabbed by the latter.    

"It's mine!"    

Wang Aojing revealed a warm smile, but the next moment, his smile froze.    

Because when the soul essence was grabbed by Wang Aojing, it suddenly dispersed, turning into a hazy soul light phantom image that escaped from Wang Aojing's fingers and flew into the sky.    

"Why?!"    

Wang Aojing was furious when he saw the soul essence that he had obtained run away. He did not understand why the soul essence had turned into a soul light phantom image when he had clearly grabbed it. It had turned into an illusion, making it impossible for him to truly control it.    

When Ye Feng saw this scene, his eyes lit up. While Wang Aojing was still in a daze from losing his soul essence, he rushed towards the soul essence.    

"You are mine!"    

Ye Feng caught up to the soul essence in the blink of an eye. He reached out to grab it. He was still thinking about whether he needed to use a special method to imprison the soul essence. After all, this thing had just turned into an illusion and escaped from Wang Aojing's hands.    

However, when Ye Feng's palm approached the soul essence, the soul essence actually did not escape. Instead, it flew towards Ye Feng and landed in Ye Feng's hand. It did not turn into an illusion and was still solid.    

"This?"    

Ye Feng was very surprised. He looked at the soul essence in his hand and felt the pure soul energy surging into his mind from the soul essence. Ye Feng felt a sense of comfort.    

"It seems like this thing is your reward for killing the Golden Elephant. Only you can control it."    

The Shattering Void Sword saw some clues and said.    

"Damn it!"    

When Wang Aojing saw that Ye Feng had mastered the soul essence, he also reacted and could not help but curse.    

"This soul essence is the opportunity for me to break through. How can I give it to him!"    

Wang Aojing's heart was filled with anger, but he also deduced that the soul essence might only recognize Ye Feng. Thus, he could only look at Ye Feng unwillingly.    

In the next moment, Wang Aojing caught a glimpse of the flying elephant statues in the hall and his expression changed slightly.    

"These statues are exactly the same as the flying elephants that produced the soul essence previously. Could it be that the flying elephants are the ones that have changed?"    

Wang Aojing's brain was very flexible, and he instantly thought of the key point. Then, he looked at Ye Feng with endless killing intent.    

"As long as I kill him and his companions, all the Flying Elephant Soul Essence here will be mine!"    

Wang Aojing clenched his fists tightly, and endless killing intent appeared in his heart. Under the temptation of the Soul Essence, he no longer had the time to think about defeating Ye Feng. He had to defeat Ye Feng now, or else the only chance for him to break through in his life would slip away from his eyes!    

"Brat, I want your life!"    

Wang Aojing's eyes immediately revealed a fierce light as he looked at Ye Feng and shouted angrily. He was about to make a move.    

But at this moment, the entire hall suddenly trembled, as if the sky was about to collapse. The loud sound made everyone subconsciously look up at the sky.    

Above the hall that was shrouded in clouds and mist, cracks suddenly appeared, as if the sky was a wound. And within these cracks, a bright golden light scattered down, shining on the nearly a hundred statues of the Flying Elephant.
