Chapter 987 - Coercion (2/2)

Xue Ying even endured until the Primal Chaos realm before using it in public, disguising it as an ancient cultivation talent. Nobody suspected him for this before in the past. Many Cosmos Gods personally saw him employing it. Even the cultivators staying in the Void Castle saw him using it.

Instead, it was Myriad Realm Tavern Master and Scarlet-Browed Mountain Master who determined that it could not be an ancient cultivation talent and should be a teleportation technique belonging to their lineage.

“What kind of status does Sacred Master has? For you to actually help Myriad Realm Tavern Master and Scarlet-Browed Mountain Master?” Xue Ying shook his head.

“I am not helping them. Instead, I want this inheritance.” Sacred Master looked at Xue Ying, “Tell me everything you know and I promise I’ll let you off.”

The reason why he was speaking so nicely…

Was because it was pointless relying on using illusory realm to make Xue Ying illustrate the art to him. After all, Xue Ying’s control of the illusory realm was more formidable than Sacred Master. He was the strongest cultivator in this aspect.

Directly scouring through his memories by targeting Xue Ying’s soul? That was too barbaric. If the gap in their strength was huge, this could be done. Nevertheless, Xue Ying specialized in the illusory realm. His Vermillion Nightmare inheritance targeted the soul too–Xue Ying even reached the unprecedented tenth transformation. The degree of his soul strength was far beyond what other ninth level Primal Chaos giants had… it was too difficult to search through his soul since it was practically comparable to that of Cosmos Gods!

Want to search through his soul? It would only cause Xue Ying’s soul to dissipate, and in the end, Sacred Master would merely obtain bits and pieces of the technique. He could not search through Xue Ying’s entire memory.

That was why Sacred Master decided to take the initiative and ask him nicely. He also promised to let Xue Ying off. Only when he had no other choices would he choose to ‘search the soul’ of Xue Ying.

…

As Xue Ying ‘negotiated’ with Sacred Master, he was also deliberately delaying for more time.

Because he had already decided! It was impossible for Xue Ying to give the inheritance from Monarch Nine Cloud to Sacred Master. With how strong Sacred Master was, why would he give him more techniques? Even if he did not have the Realm Heart Order, Xue Ying would not agree to the other party either.

He was currently delaying for time…

Merely because he wanted to arrange everything before his death.

‘I no longer have sufficient time. I have always wanted to find another golden-armored graded lair, but I have no time left.’ The incarnation of Xue Ying within the Great Void Heaven Temple Mirage Palace Hall would dissipate as long as Xue Ying chose to reincarnate.

‘Fortunately, I have left behind spatial markings on the three golden-armored graded lair that I found.’ Xue Ying thought. Previously, he merely dispatched two incarnations into the Lost World Corridor in search of more golden-armored graded lairs. It was impossible for them to always remain there. Hence, he left behind spatial markings at a relatively common sealed space close to the golden-armored graded lairs.

‘Adding up the other golden-armored graded lair which I reported to Ancestor Sorcerer and the others, I, Dong Bo Xue Ying, has found four golden-armored graded lairs in total. It’s a pity that I do not have enough time. If only I have enough time, with my scouting technique… I would be able to search through the entire Lost World Corridor once.’ Xue Ying thought.

More than a trillion years.

Xue Ying had merely searched through the tip of an iceberg within the primal chaos void for the Destruction Devils.

But the Lost World Corridor was much smaller than the primal chaos void. He had already searched through approximately 60-70% of the total area. If he had another trillion years, Xue Ying would be able to search through the entire place without leaving any place uncovered!

“Xue Ying, you aren’t cultivating?” Jing Qiu appeared outside the palace. She revealed a joyous look.

Because this incarnation of Xue Ying would usually be cultivating by observing the scaled-armor left behind by General Mo Gu.

“Jing Qiu.” Xue Ying looked at his wife. He felt his heart trembling.

“Jing Qiu, get Qing Yao, and Yu’er to come back as soon as possible. This is urgent.” Xue Ying said.

“Why the rush?” Jing Qiu felt puzzled, “Yu’er is still in closed-door cultivation.”
