Heavenly Tyrant Martial Soul-Chapter 529 - It’s you!_1

Ling Xiao, who was walking ahead, suddenly furrowed his brows.

“It’s actually a Heavenly Man Realm Expert!

How is that possible!”

Ling Xiao was shocked.

His soul power had told him that the one following them was a Heavenly Man Realm Expert, and not only that, this person also had the aura of a Moon Hua Sect martial artist.

But he was not any of the disciples in this Pagoda Climbing Ceremony.

Could it be someone from before, who stayed inside the Moon Blossom Pagoda?

Impossible!

The Moon Lady had said that once the Pagoda Climbing Ceremony was over, everyone should be sent out of the Moon Blossom Pagoda, unless there was an accident that bound their souls to the pagoda.

Could it be that missing Moon Hua Sect disciple?

Shaking his head, Ling Xiao stopped pondering.

After all, there won’t be any result from further thought.

The other party had not attacked them directly but was following behind, indicating that there must be some apprehension.

If that was the case, being a bit more cautious should pose no problem.

What he needed to concern himself with was actually the trial!

The side path was long, and although Ling Xiao confirmed that they could kill the monster at the end of the path, they still needed to be careful along the way.

He didn’t wish to experience a capsized ship in the gutter.

Along the way, the most common encounter was with poisonous snakes, but with Dai Yuling there, they had an easier time.

About half an hour later, Ling Xiao felt his cultivation level was on the verge of breaking through.

Danger and opportunity really did go hand in hand.

From the first to the second challenge, it had only been a bit more than a day, and he was about to break through.

He guessed it was because he had absorbed a good amount of spiritual medicine essence back in the medicine garden.

“You two, sit down and rest for a bit, I’ll study this snake gallbladder.”

He had previously used the Sword Control Technique to kill five Golden Little Snakes.

At the same time, he had also obtained five Golden Little Snake gallbladders.

“This snake gallbladder actually has the effect of strengthening the Martial Veins and enhancing the cultivation level, interesting.”

Ling Xiao swallowed all five snake gallbladders.

He then began to meditate and cultivate.

After Leng Hao and Dai Yuling had recuperated, they stood guard in front and behind Ling Xiao.

Although the nearby monsters had been cleared and there was no danger for the time being, it was still best to be prepared for any eventuality.

About ten minutes later, the five snake gallbladders were all digested and absorbed, Ling Xiao’s Martial Veins were slightly strengthened, and his cultivation level finally broke through its bounds, entering the intermediate stage of the Transcendent Realm Sixth Layer.

The Pagoda Climbing Ceremony had not delayed his cultivation, but had actually helped, which made Ling Xiao reveal a delighted expression.

It seemed that participating in this Pagoda Climbing Ceremony was indeed the right choice.

So, should he test the strength of the guy behind him next?

Although his soul power indicated that the other’s cultivation level was not lower than the Heavenly Man Realm, he always felt that something was off.

“You two, come here for a second!”

Ling Xiao called Dai Yuling and Leng Hao to his side, and while drawing something on the ground, he transmitted his voice to them, “…that’s how it will be done.

Can you do it?”

“Don’t worry, we will do our best.”

Both Dai Yuling and Leng Hao nodded.

“Alright, let’s get moving.”

After the three finished discussing, Leng Hao went to pick up all the unconscious poisonous snakes and gathered them together.

Dai Yuling was responsible for making a kind of sleep-inducing powder, while Ling Xiao began drawing a medium-sized array formation nearby.

The Array Refining Stone in his hand was glowing.

It was an Array Refining Stone he had prepared earlier.

The array formation he was about to set up was actually a fusion of the Fire Serpent Array, the Ten Thousand Beasts Blood Refining Array, and the Plague Osteoporosis Array.

Ling Xiao named it the “Thousand Poisons and Ten Thousand Snakes Array.”

In order to set up this array formation, a large number of living poisonous snakes were needed, and the surrounding environment provided them with this excellent opportunity.

Minutes later, all the steps for setting up were completed.

Everyone hid in a dark place and began to wait.

Ling Xiao helped Dai Yuling and Leng Hao to conceal all their breaths, remaining as silent as three rocks in their place.

“What is that!”

Suddenly, a figure darted out from the darkness, their face showing a hint of panic.

Tens of thousands of poisonous snakes almost completely surrounded him.

The plague toxin and Dai Yuling’s secret sleep-inducing powder worked in tandem.

Added to that was the tenfold terrifying venom.

Even this calm figure was starting to struggle.

He had been bitten in over a hundred places, although most of the poisonous snakes turned to ash the moment they touched him.

Still, he had inhaled some of the toxins and sleep-inducing powder, causing his figure to wobble.

Dai Yuling and Leng Hao were both startled by this scene.

They had thought that Ling Xiao was being overly anxious, but to their surprise, there really was someone following them, and this person was indeed powerful.

Without the help of these many poisonous snakes, the three of them would likely not be enough.

“It’s actually you!”

The strange mist surrounding the figure gradually dissipated, revealing the true face of the disciple who had disappeared.

However, the aura Ling Xiao sensed belonged to another person.

“You’re the Demonflame Celestial!”

“What!”

Dai Yuling and Leng Hao both widened their eyes, not understanding what Ling Xiao was talking about.

“No, you can’t possibly be the Demonflame Celestial!”

Ling Xiao then shook his head and said, “You are just one of his puppet avatars, that’s right.

I didn’t expect the Demonflame Celestial to actually use the souls and bodies of his fellow sect members to refine such a puppet.

It’s no wonder he always gains so much from each Pagoda Climbing Ceremony; so that’s how it is.”

Before entering the Pagoda Climbing Ceremony, Ling Xiao had heard from Yang Dan Lin that after every ceremony, Demonflame Celestial seemed to always have breakthroughs in his cultivation and also obtained some strange treasures, with no one knowing where they came from.

Although the Demonflame Celestial himself claimed they were gained from missions outside, Yang Dan Lin didn’t believe it.

Now it seemed that there was indeed truth to this.

“Damn it, you dare to ambush me.

Are you not afraid I will kill you?” asked the puppet avatar of the Demonflame Celestial coldly.

“Afraid, of course we are!

However, if the Demonflame Celestial could really kill us, he would certainly have done so already.

Since he hasn’t, there must be a reason,” Ling Xiao said with a light smile.

“If I am not mistaken, you probably can’t easily make a move against us.

Also, because you can’t exert your full strength, even if you are just a puppet avatar, you would be thrown out by the Moon Blossom Pagoda.”

The puppet avatar was shocked inside, for Ling Xiao had guessed correctly.

If it weren’t so, he would have directly taken action long ago instead of just following behind.

And yet, his face still appeared very calm.
