Chapter 168: Soul Breakthrough to the Heavenly Realm Great Perfection!

Ancient Realm.

Deep within the Ancient Saint Mountain Range.

Ancient Clan Leader Gu Yuan and Black Annihilation King Gu Lie appeared simultaneously in an ancient, simple grand hall.

"Heh, it seems that this time, the sensational event spreading out from the Central Plains is most likely related to that brat Gu Fei!"

"For a mere Soul Hall, there was actually no need for Gu Fei to act so covertly!"

"Could it be that people from the Soul Clan would dare to come to the Ancient Realm to cause trouble for our Ancient Clan because of this?"

The two people in the grand hall clearly already knew that Gu Fei and Zi Yan had left the Ancient Realm and had guessed that the Human Hall was destroyed by Gu Fei.

However, regarding this matter, the two of them merely treated it as a joke.

They did not attach any importance to it.

Ever since the decline of the Ancient Xiao Clan, the Ancient Clan has always been called the strongest of the Ancient Races, so they have been quite arrogant over these years and have held a disdainful attitude toward many things.

Little did they know, it was precisely because of this arrogance that the strength of the Ancient Clan has been falling further and further behind the Soul Clan, allowing the Soul Clan's strongest worker, Hun Miesheng, to create infinite value.

While the Central Plains was still buzzing with discussion because of the slaughter of the Soul Hall's Human Hall, the culprits, Gu Fei and Zi Yan, had already arrived at the Beast Domain and slipped into the Void Space.

The Void Space—this is a place that even Dou Zun experts dare not barge into recklessly.

Inside, it is pitch black and silent, and terrifying spatial storms appear from time to time.

Encountering a spatial storm, ordinary Dou Zuns cannot pass through safely, and because of this, basically no one comes into this place.

And at this moment, Gu Fei sat cross-legged somewhere in the Void Space; in front of him, a light orb about half a foot in size floated gently, and a soft, pure luster continuously diffused from within it.

Gu Fei fixed his gaze on this soul light orb, exhaled a breath, and then reached out his palm to touch the orb.

Along with this contact, Gu Fei could clearly feel the vast Soul Origin power permeating within that soul light orb.

That feeling made the soul at the center of his brow feel extremely warm...

"Puff!"

The next moment, Gu Fei opened his mouth, and the fused Exotic Fire was spat out by him.

The flames appeared and quickly floated to the underside of the soul light orb, instantly turning into a raging fire that completely enveloped the soul light orb.

Although the Soul Origin is quite pure, it is, after all, something obtained from the Soul Hall; being careful and cautious is always for the best.

Along with the gradual infiltration of the high temperature, the soul light orb boiled slightly, and faintly, wisps of extremely faint black gas emerged from within, then turned into nothingness.

Seeing these black gases, the sitting Gu Fei raised his eyebrows slightly; he felt an extremely weak consciousness from them.

Clearly, this was injected into it by the experts of the Soul Hall; if this were absorbed into the soul, it would indeed cause no small hidden danger.

"These guys from the Soul Hall really are sinister and vicious in their actions..."

Gu Fei flicked his sleeve, and the flames surged again, completely refining out the black gas hidden deep within the soul light orb.

And as these black gases dissipated, the soul light orb became increasingly transparent and crystalline, looking as if it were illusory.

This refining lasted for half an hour before Gu Fei slowly dispersed the flames, looking at the crystal-like soul light orb floating in front of him, and only then did he slowly heave a sigh of relief.

"Zi Yan, I may need to go into seclusion for a few months next; do you want to go back first?"

Gu Fei looked at Zi Yan and asked.

"No, I'll just stay here and guard you!"

Hearing this, Zi Yan shook her head without hesitation.

Having received Zi Yan's answer, Gu Fei smiled and nodded, then moved his hand seals, and the soul power at the center of his brow surged out violently.

This soul power transformed into a humanoid figure with the same appearance as Gu Fei, sitting cross-legged in front of the soul light orb, its mouth slightly agape.

A massive suction force surged out.

And with the appearance of this suction, the soul light orb trembled slightly.

A strand of exceptionally pure Soul Origin power spread out, finally wrapping around Gu Fei's soul, and continuously merged in through the pores all over his body...

Along with more and more Soul Origin being absorbed, a layer of strange, crystal-like film gradually appeared on the surface of Gu Fei's soul.

"Swish swish!"

The soul light orb fluctuated slowly, emitting a series of crisp sounds like splashing water, as strands of exceptionally pure Soul Origin power were continuously injected into Gu Fei's soul.

And under this infusion, a faint look of intoxication appeared on the face of the figure formed by Gu Fei's soul.

Layers of faint, strange crystal film quietly appeared on the surface of the soul body.

Looking at it faintly, it was just like a solid human figure, extremely miraculous.

Within the soul light orb, there was contained extremely terrifying Soul Origin power.

This Origin power was something the Human Hall had only managed to condense after extracting a million soul bodies.

Before such vast Soul Origin, even someone as strong as Gu Fei felt a sense of subtle insignificance.

"Clatter!"

Along with more and more Soul Origin being absorbed by Gu Fei, circles of invisible fluctuations also slowly spread out with Gu Fei as the center; the invisible fluctuations spread extremely far, and if Gu Fei were not in the Void Space at this moment, he would likely have attracted the attention of countless people.

"What terrifying soul power!"

Zi Yan's gaze had been fixed on Gu Fei, and because she was closer, she felt it most intensely.

Fortunately, although her soul power was weaker, her cultivation base crushed Gu Fei's by a lot, so she could still endure it.

In Zi Yan's line of sight, Gu Fei's body was now wrapped in a strange, crystal-like human figure.

Time also passed by in a flash.

"Hoo..."

That crystal human figure remained motionless like a sculpture; after an unknown amount of time, its tightly closed mouth suddenly opened.

A suction force suddenly surged out, and the soul light orb instantly darted out, turning into a stream of light, and dove into the mouth of the crystal "Gu Fei"!

"Boom!"

At the moment that ball of soul light burrowed into the mouth of "Crystal Gu Fei," the latter's body suddenly shuddered, and blindingly intense light erupted from within it; an invisible ripple, as if from heaven and earth itself, swept out from within it like a storm, covering the sky and earth!

"It's been over four months; Brother Gu Fei has finally finished absorbing that thing!"

"This soul power is likely enough to directly deal with a Two-Star Dou Saint!"

Ziyan, who was guarding Gu Fei on the side, also revealed a hint of astonishment in her eyes.

The physical body of a Void Ancient Dragon is peerlessly powerful, but likewise, soul power is its weak point; therefore, even someone as formidable as her felt shocked under this kind of soul ripple.

"So this is the soul of the Heavenly Realm Great Perfection..."

Gu Fei opened his eyes at this moment.

He could clearly feel the gap between his current self and his former self.

Even in the pitch-black Void Space, a radius of a thousand miles was within his perception.
