C29 (1/2)

Ling Yu knew that this old man should be the elder guarding the entrance to the fifth floor.

Even though he had a head full of white hair and a face full of wrinkles, the fluctuations that emanated from his body were extremely terrifying. It was simply unfathomable.

”Thank you for the reminder, Elder. Junior knows his limits and wouldn't be too ambitious.” Ling Yu hurried forward to pay his respects, and only after seeing that the old man did not show any reaction did he turn around and enter the fifth floor.

”Middle stage of the Bone Tempering stage? He can actually enter the fifth floor's Seal! ” Seeing Ling Yu enter, the old man's eyes flashed with surprise.

He had been guarding the Hidden Martial Palace for many years, so many people had entered the fifth floor. However, most of them were direct disciples, and were at least the top ten geniuses. However, there were almost no people with Ling Yu's strength.

The moment Ling Yu entered the fifth floor, he was immediately stunned.

This place seemed to be completely separate from the Hidden Martial Palace, as it formed an independent space. A gigantic Ancient Imperial palace appeared in front of him, and the things in front of him were all constructed from natural giant rocks.

The interior was very wide, with huge walls carved with Rune s and a faint Brilliant Circulation.

With this brilliance, Ling Yu could clearly see the environment in front of him.

Very quickly, Ling Yu found the Secret Scriptures on the fifth floor.

On the stone wall in front of him, there were many Carved being branded. It was extremely complicated.

The fifth floor was actually branded with so many Martial Skill s, the background of their Martial Sect was truly astonishing …

He stared at the Carved on the stone wall and was unable to calm down for a long time.

It had to be known that although the Hidden Martial Palace was where the Martial Sect stored, the true core of the Martial Sect was in the ten great halls. Compared to the ten great hall, the Martial Skill collected by the Hidden Martial Palace was merely the tip of the iceberg.

However, before he could even take a closer look, he felt a strange pressure pouncing on him like a wave.

Turning his head to look, Ling Yu's expression greatly changed.

In the middle of Ancient Imperial palace, there was a floating purple flame. It didn't feel scorching hot, but instead caused the surrounding space to distort from the scorching heat.

The strangest thing was, when Ling Yu looked at the purple flame, he actually felt that the Soul bead in his mind was abnormally active. Even though the Soul bead had not been activated yet, he still deliberately sensed the nine black flames overflowing by themselves, swirling around the Soul bead.

”Soul power fire!” Looking at the flame in front of him, Ling Yu's pupils instantly shrank!

This feeling was not wrong. The energy undulations emitted from the flames were extremely similar to the black flames of the Soul bead.

Sensing that the Soul bead in his mind was becoming more and more active, Ling Yu had no time to think about other things and immediately rushed to the center of the Ancient Imperial palace.

”Could it be that the soul power flame can activate the Soul bead again?” As long as he could awaken the Soul bead, it was definitely a rare opportunity for him. As long as the Soul bead could continue to awaken and temper his body, his strength would increase in a short period of time.

In the middle of Ancient Imperial palace, purple flame was floating in the air, burning. However, the size of a football, it had an indescribable feeling about it.

However, when Ling Yu got closer, he discovered that there was nothing abnormal.

Everything was very calm.

The purple flame was like a phosphorous flame, without any weight. It was three inches high from the ground, but at this moment, there was only a faint soul power lingering around it.

The Soul bead in his mind had calmed down and no longer lingered with the Soul Fire. It seemed like it was just an illusion.

”This is the Soul Fire left behind by the Martial Sect Ancestor?” Ling Yu continuously approached the purple flame, and from the fluctuations produced by the flames, he seemed to sense a sense of vicissitudes of time. He quickly determined in his heart that this should be a cultivation ground of a certain Master in the Martial Sect.

Because he had been cultivating for many years, Master's spirit was condensed here, and in the end, formed the soul flame.

The Ancient Imperial palace did not know how many layers of Seal had been set up by the experts of the Martial Sect, forming some sort of ”force”, allowing the Soul Fire to be preserved and be eternal.

There had to be something that had not been discovered, otherwise, Martial Sect would pay such a huge price to set up and protect the Soul Fire for thousands of years.

Ling Yu calmed down and closed his eyes. His body became ethereal as he quietly felt the changes in the Soul Fire.

Within the Ancient Imperial palace, it was completely silent. Only the purple Soul Fire was still its original self, floating in the air and burning vigorously, like a ghost flame.

After a while, Ling Yu opened his eyes with a strange expression on his face.

Earlier, when he sensed that the purple Soul Fire only had a faint flow of soul power, he couldn't sense anything.

”Could it be that this is a Ancient Palace that was left behind in memory of a certain clan master from the Martial Sect? Otherwise, who knows how many geniuses and heroes have come here in the past thousand years. If there really were any secrets that were not passed down, they would have already been discovered and opened.”
