Chapter 268 Martial Sage! (2)

During this attempt, he discovered that most of the soul power had mysteriously disappeared.

The remaining half was mixed with some memory fragments that were successfully captured by the Essence Soul and quickly absorbed and digested.

The moment everything was digested, Su Jingxing’s expression became especially interesting

Even the Essence Soul’s face twitched.

Yue Dongliu!

The figure that had invaded his consciousness was the Crimson Moon Martial Sage from a thousand years ago, Yue Dongliu!

Su Jingxing’s previous guess was right. Yue Dongliu wasn’t dead.

His physical body was destroyed, but his Essence Soul remained. Of course, not entirely, only about a third.

It was an incomplete Essence Soul.

Even so, Yue Dongliu was still very powerful. Su Jingxing had the Sishui Horned Dragon, the Heaven Trampling Elephant, and a complete Essence Soul. The Heaven Origin Saber he condensed wasn’t weak either.

Had it been anyone else, even if they were in the first-grade, their consciousness would have been devoured by Yue Dongliu and to possess and be reborn!

That’s right. From the very beginning, Yue Dongliu had used some unknown method to reside in the body of a Bloodseeker Beast and devoured its consciousness.

His goal was to possess a body and be reborn!

Because the memories he absorbed were incomplete, Su Jingxing only knew that Yue Dongliu was unwilling to die just like that. Before his lifespan was up, he had separated his Essence Soul.

But possession and rebirth were not that easy.

The reason why he resided in a Bloodseeker Beast was because they had very special structures.

Yue Dongliu was very envious of their immortality in theory.

The reason why he used a Bloodseeker Beast as a host was to obtain this ability.

Therefore, he somehow found a way to seal the Bloodseeker Beasts underground with a secret art.

Su Jingxing didn’t know where he got the Bloodseeker Beasts either. It wasn’t in the memories.

In short, the one thousand Bloodseeker Beasts were Yue Dongliu’s test subjects.

If one didn’t work, he would switch to another.

The freezing seal was also one of the steps.

And just in case, to see the light of day again, he deliberately spread the news of the Martial Sage’s legacy.

Including the Martial Sage’s Manuscript and the three legacy stone tablets, everything had been premeditated and were all part of his plan.

After all, if no one broke the seal after he successfully resided in a Bloodseeker Beast, he would have to be sealed underground forever. That would be awkward.

As for how to find someone to possess and be reborn after using a Bloodseeker Beast to escape, Su Jingxing was unaware because he did not absorb the relevant memories.

However, Su Jingxing was very lucky to have absorbed the information regarding the Essence Soul.

Just as he had guessed, the Essence Soul was the symbol of a Martial Sage!

From the late stages of the first-grade, if one fused his physical body, soul, and true essence into one, under the catalysis of Martial Art True Intent, one could condense a Divine Embryo..

The Divine Embryo was hatched using soul power. If it was successfully born, not only would there be a qualitative change in the physical body’s life level, it would also increase one’s lifespan by 240 years. He would also own an Essence Soul!

Essence Soul, a brand new cultivation foundation.

In this realm, one would begin with the Void Soul, then the Soul Fixation and finally, Soul Formation.

Void Soul, Soul Fixation, Soul Formation.

Once the final step was completed, the Essence Soul would turn into a Primordial Spirit.

The Essence Soul still needed a physical body to reside in, but if the final step was completed and a Primordial Spirit was achieved, the physical body could be abandoned.

This was because the Primordial Spirit could reconstruct the physical body!

In the legends of Earth Star, immortals were in this realm.

After achieving the Primordial Spirit, one would no longer be bound by the stars. He could leave the planet and roam the boundless starry sky.

The Essence Soul could not do that. Although an Essence Soul could ignore gravity, it could not break through the astral winds of the nine heavens.

This was especially true for newly born Essence Souls, which was in the Void Soul state. It could not withstand the roasting of the sun, the impact of the extreme Yin and Yang baneful aura, or the hacking of the Void Divine Thunder. There were also several other taboos that would destroy the Essence Soul in the Void Soul state.

In the soul fixation state, things were different.

Other than the few taboos like the Void Divine Thunder, the roasting of the sun, the astral winds of the nine heavens, extreme Yin Yang, and so on could be ignored.

As for Soul Formation, it was mainly a transition stage to the Primordial Spirit.

At this stage, soul power was the strongest and most abundant. If one could make it through this, he would reach the heavens in a single bound and achieve a Primordial Spirit.

Otherwise, his soul would dissipate, and not even his Martial Art True Intent would remain.

Every breakthrough in these three minor realms was extremely difficult.

Take Yue Dongliu, the Crimson Moon Martial Sage, for example. Before his 360 years were up, he was still in the Void Soul realm.

The reason for this was because he did not have any soul skills related to the Essence Soul.

In other words, cultivation techniques, Essence Soul cultivation, and martial arts before that were completely useless.

The true Essence Soul cultivation techniques were collectively called soul skills.

Including the Heaven Origin Saber, it could not be considered a soul skill.

On the other hand, the Full Moon Breathing Technique could be considered one. It could absorb the essence of the moon and strengthen one’s soul power.

The second reason was that Yue Dongliu was not a Kingdom Defending Martial Sage!

The Martial Sage from the previous dynasty a thousand years ago was another transcendent-grade expert.

Although Yue Dongliu was also a Martial Sage, he was no match for him.

That was because the Kingdom Defending Martial Sage had the jade seal, the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal.

Every dynasty’s Kingdom Defending Jade Seal was a soul weapon, a special treasure.

Only with the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal could the Essence Soul be like a fish in water in the Void World.

The Void World. The mysterious space that Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul had entered while chasing the ostrich creature previously was a part of it.

Back then, the Yu Nation territory that Su Jingxing had seen through Essence Soul was actually the corresponding Yu Nation in the Void World.

This was difficult to understand.

Simply put, the Void World was like a piece of paper. It traveled through other dimensions and could invade various worlds and planets.

The Void World had existed since ancient times.

It was like a piece of paper. Once it invaded a world, it would overlap with it.

Then, while bringing all kinds of convenience and opportunities, it also brought terrifying monsters and strange existences.

That’s right, the Void World was also like a passageway.

After connecting to two worlds, the living beings of these two worlds could use this passage to enter each other’s worlds.

Just like the ostrich creature that Su Jingxing had killed!

The Void World had existed for countless years, and no one knew how many worlds it had invaded.

At the very least, Yue Dongliu didn’t know, and neither did anyone on Earth Star since ancient times.

In any case, there were very few records about the Void World.

He only knew that the Void World had come to Earth Star a long, long time ago.

Although the Void World had invaded, in ancient times, the experts on Earth Star had used an unknown method to cut off the paths of the outside world.

They severed the connection with other worlds!

The existing monsters were all left behind from ancient times.

This was because Earth Star was very big, and the area where the Void World overlapped with it was very wide. It was enough for the monsters from other worlds to survive. In fact, those strange existences that lived in the Void Word to begin with naturally lasted.

Only a nation where a Martial Sage held the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal could drive away monsters and kill strange creatures.

This was also the origin of the title of the Kingdom Defending Martial Sage!

Without the protection of a Martial Sage, the monsters and strange creatures hidden in the darkness of the Void World would pass through the “membrane” and enter the nation, triggering all kinds of disasters. The previous self-combustion issue originated from the ostrich creature.

At this point, Su Jingxing came to a sudden realization and was shocked.

Without the protection of the Martial Sage, the monsters in the Void World would enter the nation.

Doesn’t this mean that something has happened to the Martial Sage of the Yu Nation?

If nothing had happened, why would the ostrich creature release a large number of strange lifeforms to make people self-combust?

Had Su Jingxing not accidentally nurtured an Essence Soul using a Divine Defense Card, chased the ostrich creature into the Yu Nation’s Void World and killed it, countless more people would have died!

“Has something happened to the Martial Sage?”

Su Jingxing’s scalp went numb.

After learning the importance of the Martial Sage, Su Jingxing’s heart turned cold at once.

If something had really happened to the Martial Sage, the Yu Nation would be finished!

Although he did not know how many strange monsters there were in the darkness of the Void World, they had never been cut off over so many years.

Su Jingxing could kill an ostrich creature using his Essence Soul.

But what if there were 10, 20, 50 or 100 of them?

Could Su Jingxing still resolve the problem?

And this was only an ostrich creature. What if it were another even more terrifying monster or strange existence?

Could Su Jingxing still resolve the problem?

No!

It wasn’t that Su Jingxing was belittling himself, but he knew his limits.

Currently, the only offensive and defensive means of his Essence Soul was the Heaven Origin Saber. The problem was that the Heaven Origin Saber could not be considered a soul skill and had limited lethality.

He was lucky that he was able to take care of the ostrich creature the last time.

He might not be so lucky with other monsters and strange existences.

Unless Su Jingxing obtained the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal!
