Chapter 727: Divine Soul Advancement

"But I actually got a bargain! Originally this Divine Soul Power would have been absorbed by the Sealing Demon Tablet, now it's a bargain for me!"

Ye Liuyun, while still feeling a lingering fear, also felt a bit fortunate.

This time Ye Liuyun was not careless; first he used Nether Ghost Fire to burn the evil artifact's skull directly to ash.

Then, after rechecking those two energy spheres with Divine Sense and Golden Pupil, he placed them into his Storage Ring.

The Foreign Tribe's body was still being pressed by the Sealing Demon Tablet, absorbing power; Ye Liuyun did not dare to act for the time being.

When bored, he first extracted the fire source from the disciple who possessed Mysterious Dark Azure Flame, stored it, and waited to go out to absorb it again.

Then he picked up Mo Yang's artifact.

"It seems this thing still isn't meant for you!"

Ye Liuyun smiled, and together with that artifact, directly placed it into his Storage Ring.

"Consider it my thank‑you gift for rescuing you!"

If Mo Yang hadn't said back then, "Next time we raid treasure, each rely on our own skill," Ye Liuyun really wouldn't have snatched his artifact.

Since Mo Yang didn't want to discuss friendship first, he naturally wouldn't be polite.

Ye Liuyun immediately sat cross‑legged to cultivate, unafraid that Mo Yang, upon waking, would know he took the artifact.

But before Mo Yang could regain consciousness, the Foreign Tribe evil artifact suppressed by the Sealing Demon Tablet had its Divine Soul within its body already very weak.

Ye Liuyun again pulled its remaining Divine Soul into his own Divine Soul domain, performed Soul Search, and learned the course of the earlier great battle.

Originally these Foreign Tribe evil artifacts had beaten back Human Martial Cultivators step by step, seemingly about to unify this continent.

But suddenly a Human Race strongman appeared and directly sealed the Golden Wing Foreign Tribe.

The strongman's power was still insufficient; at that time he couldn't kill it outright, only temporarily seal it.

Then the strongman led the Human Race in a counterattack, annihilating all invading Foreign Tribe.

However, to prevent the dead Foreign Tribe Yin Souls from rampaging and fearing the Golden Wing Foreign Tribe might escape, they designed such a tomb and arranged Mysterious Dark Azure Flame and the Human Race's Yin Souls to guard it.

Later, this continent fractured because of that battle, and their piece also drifted into the void.

Until several years later, when the Lingxiao Sect discovered this Secret Realm, opened a passage, it became the Lingxiao Sect's exclusive Secret Realm.

However, earlier disciples rarely explored here. Even those who came could not pass the Human Race Yin Soul checkpoint; instead they all died here, becoming members of the Yin Souls guarding this place.

Ye Liuyun, having learned the whole story, then absorbed all his remaining Divine Soul.

【5】 Next he took the Sealing Demon Tablet, used the Demon Slaying Sword to strip the evil artifact of its golden scale armor, and also unearthed a crystal core.

【6】 Then he walked toward another passage that no one had entered or exited.

【7】 He ignored the unconscious Mo Yang. After all, he couldn't die.

【8】 When they left, the Token on Mo Yang would directly bring him back.

【9】 Ye Liuyun was heading for the final source of Mysterious Dark Azure Flame.

【10】 With these sources of Mysterious Dark Azure Flame, the quality of Nether Ghost Fire could be comparable to Golden Crow Holy Fire; how could he pass up such an opportunity.

【11】 He only accelerated this time. In one day, he needed to rush to the Human Race's guarding Yin Souls to seize Mysterious Dark Azure Flame.

【12】 He couldn't let any Foreign Tribe evil artifact Yin Souls on the way escape.

【13】 Thus this time he simultaneously employed Blood Thunder, Nether Ghost Fire, and his Divine Soul domain.

【14】 Inside the passage, he killed on sight; in the tomb chamber, regardless of anything, he unleashed Blood Thunder once, burned with Nether Ghost Fire once—everything he passed turned to ash, leaving nothing.

【15】 Then he moved on to the next tomb chamber without pause.

【16】 Until he burst into the Human Race's guarding tomb chamber, where he would directly ring the Mourning Bell.

【17】 But the Human Race's guarding Divine Soul directly gave him the Mysterious Dark Azure Flame.

【18】 "I feel that the Foreign Tribe evil artifact has been eradicated! Thank you for annihilating the Foreign Tribe and freeing us! We no longer need to guard here!"

【19】 The Yin Soul sighed, and quietly drifted away.

【20】 Ye Liuyun, though a bit surprised, could understand its feeling. After all, constantly guarding a place without sunlight is also a painful thing.

【21】 He hadn't expected that his extermination of the Foreign Tribe would also be a liberation for these Human Race Yin Souls.

【22】 Ye Liuyun collected the Mysterious Dark Azure Flame and headed straight out of the tomb.

【23】 This time, no Human Race Yin Soul blocked him; for the remaining journey, he encountered not a single Yin Soul.

【24】 He exited the tomb smoothly; his eyes, accustomed to darkness, found the outside sunlight extremely glaring.

He squinted for a while, then sat down on the spot and began absorbing the Mysterious Dark Azure Flame.

Now it's too late for him to go elsewhere to look for treasure; he might as well wait for teleportation here.

Through the Token, the Teleportation Array can locate them and send them back to the platform they entered from. So wherever he is, it's the same. There's no need to waste time running around.

At that moment, Ye Liuyun's primary Divine Soul showed signs of advancement.

"It seems the Golden Wing Foreign Tribe's Divine Soul is strong enough to cause this reaction!"

Ye Liuyun immediately stopped absorbing the flames and focused on cultivating his Divine Soul.

The Golden Wing Foreign Tribe's Divine Soul is the most powerful Divine Soul Ye Liuyun has ever absorbed, and also the closest to a Sovereign‑tier cultivator's Divine Soul.

Thus, under the stimulation of these powerful Divine Soul forces, his primary Divine Soul's bottleneck finally broke through.

Consequently, Ye Liuyun absorbed all his remaining Divine Soul power completely.

He now feels the space for his primary Divine Soul's advancement has opened once more!

"I don't know how much Divine Soul power will be needed for the next transformation!"

Ye Liuyun felt his powerful Divine Soul power, very satisfied, but also thought that his Divine Soul's further advancement was a bottomless pit.

Relying on self‑cultivation, the speed would be very slow, and the bottleneck hard to break.

"He should refine some pills to compress and purify his Divine Soul!"

Having absorbed too much Divine Soul, his own Divine Soul also needs purification, lest impurities affect his future progress.

Ye Liuyun immediately sent a Transmission Voice through Divine Sense to Ru Yue, asking her to help select some Divine Soul‑related herbs. He intends to refine some pills to purify his Divine Soul.

He didn't expect that, after he wiped out the Foreign Tribe, for these Human Race Yin Souls, it was also a kind of release.

Ye Liuyun collected the Mysterious Dark Azure Flame and walked straight out of the tomb.

This time, the Human Race Yin Souls did not block him anymore; on the remaining route, he didn't encounter a single Yin Soul.

He left the tomb smoothly all the way; his eyes had grown accustomed to the darkness, yet as soon as he emerged, he found the outside sunlight extremely glaring.

He narrowed his eyes for a moment, then sat down right there and began to absorb the Mysterious Dark Azure Flame.

He no longer had time to go elsewhere to look for treasures; it would be better to wait here for the teleportation.

Through the Token, the Teleportation Array can locate them and send them back to the platform they entered from. So no matter where he is, it's the same; there's no need to waste time running around.

And just then, Ye Liuyun's main Soul showed signs of advancing.

"Looks like the Soul of the Golden-Wing Foreign Tribe is strong enough to provoke this reaction!"

Ye Liuyun immediately stopped absorbing the flame and focused on cultivating his Soul.

The Soul of the Golden-Wing Foreign Tribe is the strongest Soul Ye Liuyun has absorbed so far, and also the Soul closest to that of a venerable expert.

Therefore, under the stimulation of these powerful Soul forces, the bottleneck of his main Soul finally broke through.

Following that, Ye Liuyun absorbed all the remaining Soul power completely.

He now feels that the room for his main Soul to progress has opened up once again!

"Who knows how much more Soul power will be needed for the next transformation!"

Ye Liuyun felt his formidable Soul power, very satisfied, yet also felt that if his Soul wanted to advance further, it would truly be a bottomless pit—he would need more Soul power to replenish it!

Relying solely on his own cultivation, the speed will be very slow, and breaking through the bottleneck will also be difficult.

"It's time to concoct some pills to compress and purify the Soul!"

Having absorbed too many Souls, his own Soul also needs to be purified and refined, lest the impurities affect his future progress.

Ye Liuyun immediately sent a Transmission Voice to Ru Yue's Divine Sense, asking her to help pick some medicinal herbs for the Soul. He intends to concoct some pills to purify his own Soul.

But before Ru Yue had finished picking, Ye Liuyun felt his token react.

He immediately took out his token, and immediately a spatial fluctuation came, a strong suction force, pulling Ye Liuyun out of this Secret Realm.

By the time he reappeared, he had already arrived at the formation platform where he had first entered the Secret Realm.
