During the engagement ceremony held at the Light Temple in the Golden Leaf Imperial City, Qi Bei, while gazing into the eyes of the divine statue, experienced a moment of trance. He felt as if a gentle gaze from a distant void penetrated through countless layers of time and space, just like the gaze of the green-clothed woman.
Goddess of Life! Qi Bei murmured, realizing that the green-clothed woman who aided him in escaping the illusory world was actually the Goddess of Life.
Indeed, that painting. Perhaps the green-clothed woman in the painting carried a strand of the Goddess of Lifes consciousness. Thats what Qi Bei thought.
After the green-clothed woman dispersed into countless specks of light, Qi Bei clearly felt that his soul had grown stronger.
He continued to move forward, and with each step, the surrounding light points followed and encircled him.
After walking a distance, Qi Bei once again encountered the massive cluster of light that appeared in his dream. In the previous dream, his consciousness delved into it, where he encountered five individuals who claimed to be from the five Holy Lands and referred to him as a senior.
Approaching the massive cluster of light, Qi Bei could clearly see the five individuals this time. Just by looking at them, he could sense the vast and terrifying aura emanating from their bodies. These five individuals possessed astonishing power.
Senior, Senior is it you who has arrived? Just then, the breathtakingly beautiful woman in a fiery red dress spoke, and the other four immediately woke up from their cultivation, their expressions expectant yet nervous.
The little girls perception is quite sensitive. Not bad, it is indeed this deity, Qi Beis ethereal voice transmitted into the enclosed space.
Senior, the junior is Feng Xianer, the Palace Master of the Phoenix Perching Palace. Please save us, senior, said the stunning woman.
The Palace Master of the Phoenix Perching Palace, one of the five Holy Lands. Qi Bei couldnt help but be shocked. Each of them was at the level of a Saint.
The junior is Leng Gu, the Valley Master of the Frost Ice Valley. Please save us, senior, Leng Gu also spoke.
The junior is Rong Xiaoxi, the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Mountain Peak, the old woman said.
The junior is Feng Qingyang, the Supreme Elder of the Dream Sea, the Crazy Elder spoke.
The junior is Yu Qinghu from the Beast Manor, Yu Qinghu said tremblingly.
Qi Bei felt a little dizzy. These were all high-ranking figures from the five Holy Lands, and he was actually showing off in front of them.
However, soon, he became excited. These prominent figures from the five Holy Lands were trapped within his soul, completely at his mercy. This was a tremendous opportunity.
So, you are the youngsters from the five Holy Lands. How did you end up trapped here? Qi Bei said in a profound and unfathomable manner, calling these great figures from the holy lands youngsters. His pretentiousness was extraordinary.
Feng Xianer, the Palace Master of the Phoenix Perching Palace, explained the situation. It turned out that when the Dragon Phoenix visions occured in the Savage Wastelands, they discovered images of battles and cultivation of the gods within a certain space. After comprehending them, their cultivation greatly increased. Therefore, every ten years they would gather at the Dragon Phoenix Valley, open the space, and enter it for further comprehension.
But who knew that this time, something went wrong with the temple priest guarding the space gate, causing the gate to close and trapping them all within the space.
Upon hearing this, Qi Bei couldnt help but be taken aback. It seemed to be related to that old man who placed him in the illusory world. However, how did they end up entering his own soul then?
At the thought of the old man, Qi Beis soul suddenly trembled.
At the same time, he faintly saw a hint of green light in the center of the eyebrows of the five great figures within the light cluster.
Just then, the five of them suddenly exclaimed in alarm. In an instant, they felt their soul energy being irresistibly drained away.
Senior, please stop the five of them exclaimed in fear.
Meanwhile, Qi Bei felt his soul power expanding in an instant. He was also shocked, quickly cutting off the connection. The souls of these five figures were incredibly powerful, yet just absorbing such a tiny fraction made him feel like his soul was about to explode.
What was going on? Qi Bei was filled with doubts and astonishment. He could actually absorb the souls of these five great figures at will.
Of course, he wouldnt know that originally, that old man was a divine powerhouse who intended to condense one hundred seeds of ambition to reshape his divine body, and Qi Bei was the target for the last seed. However, Qi Bei broke through the illusonary world, and as a result, the divine consciousness of the God of Ambition merged ninety-nine seeds into one and implanted it into Qi Beis soul, intending to establish the foundation of the dark faction. But he never expected that Qi Bei possessed an unimaginable Divine Dragon bloodline, which suppressed the seed of ambition as soon as it entered Qi Beis soul, gradually transforming into his own true soul power.
As for the space that contained images of the gods cultivation and battles, it was actually one of the seeds of ambition. When the five of them entered it, they were essentially entering the ambition seed. The more they cultivated, the stronger the desire within their hearts became, and the stronger the energy of the seed became.
In short, the divine consciousness of the God of Ambition actually treated them as nourishment for the seeds. When the merged seed entered Qi Beis soul, they naturally became trapped within his soul, and Qi Bei gained complete control over their life and death.
You youngsters, it is not this deity who wants to absorb the power of your souls, but this deity wants to absorb this space. However, I didnt expect that the space and your souls would be connected, Qi Bei said lightly, without even blinking his eyes while telling a lie.
Senior, save us! We are willing to offer all our treasures, Yu Qinghou shouted. He was the weakest among them and couldnt bear the torment in this space, where a day felt like a hundred years.
Indeed, within this space, in just a few dozen days, they all felt as if a hundred years had passed.
Treasures! Qi Beis eyes lit up.
However, at that moment, Qi Bei felt a splitting headache, as if he had indigestion after directly absorbing the soul power of five of them.
I have other matters to attend to. Well talk next time, Qi Bei said, retracting his consciousness. Suddenly, his soul shook, and he returned to the real world.
Qi Bei immediately focused his mind and began to integrate the portion of soul power that didnt belong to him.
Soul integration is not a straightforward process since each persons soul is different. Its not something that can be absorbed at will. It took Qi Bei a full two days to completely integrate the soul power of the five Saint experts.
Qi Bei heaved a sigh of relief and stood up. He felt a surge in his sea of consciousness at the center of his eyebrows, as if it had condensed into a vortex.
It was already late at night outside. Qi Bei stood by the window and looked out. Apart from two magical lamps at the entrance of the Sunset Royal Academy across the street, everything inside was pitch-black and silent.
Qi Beis consciousness spread out, and the vortex in the center of eyebrows instantly surged forward at a speed ten times faster than before.
Just then, he sensed three golden points. One was in the Western City District, and the other two were inside the Sunset Royal Academy.
They were the three women marked by his Dragon Mark: the Beauty Scorpion, Huo Siqin, and Feng Ruoyu. Huo Siqin and Feng Ruoyu were in the academy across the street.
This was a pleasant surprise for Qi Bei. He had never been able to sense them so clearly before. Now, he could even pinpoint their exact locations.
He thought for a moment and suddenly leaped from the window ledge, silently entering the Sunset Royal Academy. Despite his approach, the diligent guards remained completely unaware.
