Chapter 2922: Forging the Soul Body!
Peerless Medicine God · 第2922章 锤炼魂体!
"As I said, if you want to show off, wait until you pass. It would be quite embarrassing to talk big now and then get slapped in the face later," Ye Yuan said indifferently.
Qin Shitian's face darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "Then let's wait until we leave the Soul Control Path and see who gets slapped in the face!"
A powerful Emperor realm figure appeared before the crowd and announced, "The Soul Control Path has ten segments. Passing two segments counts as passing the assessment. This path has the effect of tempering the soul body, which will greatly benefit you. However, I advise you to act within your means—people can die! Currently, the best result in the Hall Entrance Assessment is the peak of the fifth segment!"
Qin Shitian and his two companions were secretly determined to make Ye Yuan lose face this time.
The three had come from the Crimson Battlefield, and their current achievements were not made overnight.
Their soul bodies were extremely condensed.
Emperor Dongyang had once said that, based on the condensation of Qin Shitian's soul body, he could at least reach the sixth segment!
In other words, breaking through the shackles of the fifth segment was almost a foregone conclusion.
He didn't believe Ye Yuan could still contend with him in this trial!
At the command, over three hundred people rushed in.
As soon as they entered the Soul Control Path, overwhelming soul attacks came at them from all directions.
Many soul clan experts used various means to defend against these soul attacks.
However, many soul clan experts soon began to complain bitterly.
"The first segment is already this brutal—it's killing me!"
"What kind of freaks actually enter the Nirvana Soul Hall!"
"Ouch, I can't take it! I can't take it! I want to quit!"
...
Coming out of the first trial, these three hundred plus people were naturally all elites.
But soon, some couldn't hold on any longer.
Endless soul attacks, like a violent storm, assaulted these soul clan experts.
Every second, they had to deal with more than ten soul attacks.
It was simply impenetrable!
The Soul Control Path was also ten li long.
Every li was one segment.
But now, before they had even gone a hundred zhang, someone had already fallen.
Of course, where there were weak ones, there were strong ones.
Qin Shitian and his two companions showed no reaction to the storm of attacks.
They didn't even use any defensive techniques.
The first segment was too easy for them.
The three of them, almost neck and neck, rushed to the entrance of the second segment at top speed.
The earlier segments were not difficult for them; they needed to conserve soul power for the later ones.
At this moment, the three of them simultaneously looked back and saw that many people had caught up.
But they didn't see Ye Yuan's figure, and they all breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
That guy really couldn't cut it!
This segment, it's our turn to shine!
"Heh, that kid was all high and mighty, but he's nothing special! This segment relies on the soul body! The three of us will never lose to anyone!" Qin Shitian said with a cold laugh.
"When we get out, we'll make that kid pay!" Zhou Yu's face also turned gloomy.
"Of course! I've roamed the battlefield and never been so humiliated! This time, I'll see how that kid can still be arrogant!" Qin Shitian snorted coldly.
Recalling the first trial, it was truly embarrassing to the extreme.
Not only had he embarrassed himself, but he had also dragged Emperor Dongyang into it!
With that, the three of them entered the second segment without looking back.
In the second segment, not only did the number of soul attacks double, but their power also doubled.
For everyone, it was an immense trial.
Qin Shitian and the other two dared not be overconfident; they all deployed defensive secret techniques and continued forward.
Outside the Soul Control Path, Dongyang the Great Emperor and the others nodded with smiles, evidently quite satisfied with the performance of Qin Shitian and his companions.
"Heh, once on the Soul Control Path, Ye Yuan has finally shown his true colors! I see that every step he takes is extremely labored!" said Xichen the Great Emperor with a laugh.
Dongyang the Great Emperor also laughed: "In terms of soul body, I'm afraid no one in the True Imperial Heaven is stronger than the three of them. The Crimson Refining Battlefield is like a meat grinder, and they have fought through mountains of corpses and seas of blood with real weapons! Their soul bodies have already reached the pinnacle of the True Imperial Heaven."
Lin Fang the Great Emperor said: "A heaven-defying Dao heart must be matched by corresponding strength! Otherwise, it is like duckweed without roots, unable to withstand a single blow. If Ye Yuan were to fight the three of them, he probably wouldn't last a single exchange!"
The crowd of experts nodded one after another, evidently quite in agreement.
Qiyu's expression turned slightly unpleasant.
He hadn't expected Ye Yuan to be so useless.
In the second trial, he had actually fallen to the very back!
He probably couldn't even get through the first segment.
This time, even Yan Yuzhen was puzzled.
He knew that in terms of soul body, Ye Yuan was indeed not strong.
Where Ye Yuan excelled was his miraculous soul path secret techniques.
Could it be that this time he was really going to fail?
Soon, many experts passed through the first segment one after another, and fewer and fewer remained in the first segment.
Some, severely wounded by soul attacks, could no longer continue the assessment and had to withdraw.
But Ye Yuan was still hundreds of zhang away from the end of the first segment.
At that moment, Qin Shitian and the other two had already passed the second segment and entered the third!
Their speed was astonishing.
Dongyang the Great Emperor smiled: "This Ye Yuan has a strong Dao heart and is quite tenacious; he has managed to hold on until now."
Xichen the Great Emperor chuckled: "No matter how tenacious, it's useless. Even if he can pass the first segment, in the second segment, where both quantity and power double, it's impossible for him to pass. He might even be annihilated the moment he enters the second segment! As I see it, he's just asking for death!"
Dongyang the Great Emperor had already stopped caring about Ye Yuan and instead looked at Qin Shitian, smiling: "This child Shitian has considerable potential; he has gradually pulled ahead of the other two. I estimate that entering the sixth segment should be no problem for him. I just wonder how far he can go in the sixth segment."
At these words, everyone's expression changed.
They hadn't expected Dongyang the Great Emperor to think so highly of Qin Shitian.
Let alone the sixth segment, the difficulty of the fifth segment was already at a hellish level.
These big shots before them, when they were at the True Imperial Heaven realm, couldn't have reached the sixth segment either!
Qin Shitian was truly monstrous!
Inside the Soul Control Path, Ye Yuan moved step by step, enduring soul attacks from all directions.
With the methods of the Divine Derivation, blocking these soul attacks would be too easy.
But he did not.
These soul attacks actually had the effect of tempering the soul body!
Thus, he did not want to waste this opportunity.
The first trial was useless to him, so he passed it quickly.
But this trial was different.
These soul attacks continuously hammered his soul body, making it stronger.
As Yan Yuzhen had thought, his soul body was very ordinary.
After all, the primordial spirit of a human is not that of a soul race.
Ye Yuan's primordial spirit spent most of its time within his sea of consciousness.
He very much wanted to try how far his soul body could go!
