Chapter 170: Five Soul Books

The three carriages went up the official road, leaving behind the royal city.

Qi Bei leaned out and looked at the sky above the city, as if piercing through space, seeing that enchanting woman standing in the air, her captivating gaze brightening the entire world.

Fairy, we will meet again.

At that moment, Yao Rao stood above the palace, calmly watching as a member of the royal family died in despair, her heart unaffected.

Suddenly, she felt a tremor in her heart and looked towards the distance.

.

Leaving Sunset Royal City and heading southwest for two thousand miles, one would reach the famous Golden Fortress of the Golden Leaf Empire, and from there, enter the Golden Leaf Empire.

In fact, there are other routes from Falling Sunset Kingdom to enter the Golden Leaf Empire. Moreover, this particular route passes through the territory of the Goths, which is not the most favorable route by any means.

However, Dean Mo insisted. He said he hoped that these students would gain experience and engage in communication not only with the major academies of the Golden Leaf Empire but also with all beings, whether they be humans or even different races. The ultimate goal was to broaden their horizons and open their minds.

It has to be said that this statement makes a lot of sense. However, Qi Bei suspected that Dean Mo had other hidden purposes in mind when planning the route.

Dusk approached, and the sun set behind the green mountains, casting a faint halo.

Dean Mo gave the order to stop and set up camp on the spot.

Qi Bei approached Dean Mo and whispered, I have to ask, why do we have to detour through the territory of the Goths and then enter the Golden Leaf Empire from the Golden Fortress City? Dont try to deceive me with your explanations.

Dean Mo chuckled, Kid, this route was arranged by your old man. Im just helping out. If it werent for a favor I owed someone back then, do you think I would take such a risk at this critical juncture?

A favor? Do ghosts also owe favors? Qi Bei sneered. Favors or enmity, its always humans who have such emotions.

Kid, dont be too presumptuous. When you climb higher, youll understand that the line between light and darkness in this world isnt as clear as you think. Dean Mo said calmly.

Qi Bei shrugged. He didnt know whether it was obvious or not, but people always act in their own interests. Or rather, the interests of the major factions. As for the conflicts between the two major factions now, he didnt want to get involved. He just needed to ensure that his own interests were not infringed upon.

Qi Bei walked away and casually set up a tent at the edge before sitting down inside and cross-legged.

The scenery within the borders of the Fallen Sunset Kingdom was beautiful, and even in the wilderness, encounters with magical beasts were rare. Therefore, setting up camp in the wild was relatively safe. Compared to defending against magical beast attacks, guarding against human attacks was more important.

Within this exchange group, they had Dean Mo, a King-tier warrior leading the team, along with a senior warrior and a senior mage as instructors. With such strength, there shouldnt be anyone in the entire Fallen Sunset Kingdom daring to provoke them. As a result, all the students were relaxed, chatting and eagerly looking forward to the days to come in small groups.

Siqin, lets go to the mountain together and have a look, Feng Ruoyu found Huo Siqin and said.

Huo Siqin shook her head and said, Ruoyu, I want to practice.

Seeing Huo Siqins determined expression, Feng Ruoyu couldnt help but feel ashamed. She remembered her fathers words that a successful strong person needed the heart of a strong person and needed to put in constant effort. She considered herself diligent, but it wasnt enough.

Well, then Ill go practice too, Feng Ruoyu said.

Huo Siqin quieted her mind and entered a state of meditation. In order not to be forgotten and to be able to keep up with that mans footsteps, she had to become a powerful mage, strong enough to be his right-hand woman.

Golden internal energy thick as milk surged and circulated throughout Qi Beis meridians. However, when he sensed signs of the extreme yang energy condensing into extremely yang fire due to the operation of the Divine Dragon Art, he immediately stopped.

His consciousness spread out, and Qi Bei happened to overhear the conversation between Huo Siqin and Feng Ruoyu.

This little Qiner seems to be really determined. However, although her aptitude is good, it is virtually impossible for her to cultivate to the Earth grade or Heaven grade. Its like trying to reach the heavens, Qi Bei thought. Perhaps he should help her, but how?

Suddenly, he thought of the five supreme experts of the Holy Lands in his soul. Maybe he could learn some methods to change ones aptitude from them.

Qi Beis consciousness entered a state of clarity and quickly entered the world of his soul. Soon, he found the cluster of light.

Senior, you finally came, Feng Xianer exclaimed in joy.

Senior the other four also greeted respectfully.

The supreme experts of the five Holy Lands showed unparalleled respect to Qi Bei, who had the power to control their life and freedom.

You all should condense everything you know into a soul book, Qi Beis ethereal voice echoed in this secluded space, recalling what the elder from Dream Sea had done when he was about to die.

The five supreme experts fell silent for a moment, exchanged glances, and all agreed.

Qi Bei did not know that the condensation of the soul book required at least half of ones soul power, and the cost was immense.

However, in this situation where they had no choice but to agree, they would be the ones to pay the price. The last time Qi Bei had absorbed their soul power with a single thought, they dared not go against him in any way, as he had the power to control their life and death.

Qi Bei could indeed absorb their soul power, but when he absorbed a small amount last time, his soul almost burst. If he were to absorb it bit by bit, he didnt know how long it would take to completely drain them. However, they had no idea and even thought that Qi Bei had simply punished them last time.

The five individuals sat cross-legged, and a strong soul light began to flicker at their forehead.

So powerful! Qi Bei thought. Even outside of the space, he could still feel the immense fluctuations of their soul power.

The Soul Book requires soul power as a carrier to transfer everything that can be remembered into it.

Before long, a nearly transparent Soul Book floated in front of each of the five supreme experts, and their faces became somewhat pale.

Senior, were done, the five of them said.

Qi Beis consciousness probed into the books and instantly retrieved the five Soul Books.

The Soul Book and soul power were completely different. Although the Soul Book could merge with the soul, it did not fuse with it, so there was no danger.

Senior, when will you release us? Feng Xianer spoke up.

Wait until I see if theres anything useful in your Soul Books, Qi Bei replied indifferently.

After Qi Bei successfully pretended to be someone he wanted to be and obtained what he desired, he withdrew from the soul.

Qi Beis consciousness delved into the Soul Book, which contained an enormous amount of information. However, he only searched for information related to aptitude.

At that moment, he suddenly saw a passage in the Soul Book of Leng Gu that recorded information about improving aptitude.

A persons aptitude is predetermined at birth and determines whether they can cultivate and whether their cultivation path will be smooth and lasting.

However, although aptitude is innate, there are methods to change it. The first method is a legendary concoction created by alchemists during the war of the gods, capable of improving aptitude.

The second method is the consumption of something called Serene Spirit Jade Dew, a dew that forms at the end of the boundless sea when night and day intersect. It is rumored to be collected in the Dream Sea.

The third method is the power of the Supreme God.

The fourth method is the inheritance of the gods, which establishes a divine foundation.

The four methods become progressively more difficult, and the effects are indicated by the text, with each method surpassing the previous one. In this era, alchemists are scarce, so it is unlikely that anyone can refine a magical concoction to improve aptitude.

As for the Serene Spirit Jade Dew, Qi Bei temporarily set it aside and didnt dwell on it.

The last method, the inheritance of the gods, was even more confusing to Qi Bei.

But his heart trembled at the mention of the third method, the power of the Supreme God. He had the Life Heart and Death Heart with him, both formed from the power of the Goddess of Life and the God of Death. That should be considered the power of the Supreme God.

If the Life Heart and Death Heart had the ability to reverse aptitude, their value would be much higher than he had anticipated.

In fact, Qi Bei had initially underestimated the value of the Heart of Life and the Heart of Death. The crystallization of the power of the Supreme God was invaluable and could not be measured in gold coins.

With these thoughts in mind, Qi Bei stood up and left the tent.

It was already late at night, and the academy students had returned to their respective tents. Only one academy mentor was sitting cross-legged, keeping watch.

Qi Bei put on a fake beard, and with a flicker of his figure, he sneakily entered Huo Siqins tent.

Huo Siqin was in meditation and showed no response to Qi Beis arrival.

With a snap of his fingers, a faint sound pop echoed in the air.

Huo Siqins delicate body trembled, and she opened her eyes. When she saw a tall figure in front of her, she almost screamed but quickly recognized who it was and covered her mouth.

Even if she had screamed, no one would have heard it.

How How did you come here? Huo Siqins pretty face blushed slightly. She looked at Qi Bei with a mixture of shyness and joy, her beautiful eyes becoming watery and soft.

Qi Bei patted the spot next to him inside the tent, gesturing for her to come closer.

Huo Siqins heart raced. Last time in the academy dormitory, she had to use her mouth to serve him because it wasnt convenient. But now, there were no obstacles. Was he here to claim her body?

Her body already belonged to him, and Huo Siqin didnt have any psychological resistance. However, as a young girl experiencing it for the first time, she couldnt help but feel complex and uneasy.

She clenched her teeth, pulled down her collar, and the loose mage robe slipped down, revealing the pink undergarments underneath. Her fair and porcelain-like skin was exposed to the air.

Qi Bei was momentarily stunned. He hadnt intended to go in that direction. He had come to give her the Life Heart, allowing her to gradually improve her aptitude during cultivation, along with some magic spells and a soul book. These were things that even a mage would struggle to obtain.
