Chapter 121: The Battle of Souls

  "Roar!"

  The dragon's roar shook the heavens, and even though it was just a spiritual body, the three-legged fire dragon's aura at this moment was enough to make a mountain peak and a vast ocean disappear in an instant!

  The night was a bit suspicious, the words of the sword spirit, whether it was true or not, the three-legged fire dragon showed great strength, and he himself had no chance of defeating it at all, let alone using the soul power that he had never used before.

  It seems that in order to prove what was said, at the time of the great exhibition of the three-legged fire dragon's power, the white light of the heavenly sword and the purple glow of the ancient emperor's temple, like two arrows shooting into the sky, burst out together.

  In an instant, the two arrows of benefit shattered everything in their path and pierced through the Three-Legged Fire Dragon's might. Immediately afterwards, the powerful force hidden inside directly sealed it within.

  "Three-legged Fire Dragon, you want the energy of Gudian Temple and me? Alright, but defeat my master first. However, your current form is unfair to my master."

  As they spoke, the three-legged fire dragon was suppressed by two great mysterious objects, its visible body shrinking.

  "Heavenly Sword, Ancient Emperor's Palace, you are despicable!"

  It seems that the three-legged fire dragon did not expect that these two guys' energy would actually force it to reveal its true form. At this time, the three-legged fire dragon was extremely angry, but under such power, it was helpless.

  In the end, it struggled in vain, its body lightly trembled, a virtual shadow flew out quickly from its heavenly cover.

  "Master, this is the true form of the Three-Legged Fire Dragon!"

  While Dao Ling was speaking, Chen Ye had already closed his eyes. A moment later, a blurry shadow appeared between his eyebrows and slowly floated out. Under the control of his thoughts, it arrived in front of the Three-Legged Fire Dragon's true body.

  "This little guy is indeed extraordinary, and it's also a soul that has undergone soul transformation!" The miniature three-legged fire dragon couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, its knowledge was not small either!

  "Haha!" Dao Ling laughed and said: "Three-legged fire dragon, my master's skills are not as simple as you think, go and experience it slowly!"

  Upon hearing this, the three-legged fire dragon's expression changed and it shouted in a stern voice: "Even if you are a soul that has undergone transformation, with your spirit still in its initial form, you think you can defeat me? Dream on!"

  "Roar!"

  That miniature three-legged fire dragon, like a bat, surged with an aura that ordinary people couldn't bear, ferociously charging over, a beam of light, like thunder, taking the lead, directly shooting at Chen Ye's soul.

  Under the beam of light, the soul of Chen Ye could clearly sense that all matter in space had turned into nothingness, and one could imagine the power of this beam.

  Eyes gazing at the incoming light beam, not daring to be careless even for a moment, as soon as the soul stirred, a vague figure emerged from the shadows, and an arm took shape, immediately slapping down towards the light beam with great force.

  "Really?"

  At this moment, Chen Ye's mind suddenly moved slightly. As for the soul, what he understood was actually not moving. Before, when he hadn't obtained the so-called Soul Transformation, at most, he could only use the power of his soul to perceive the surrounding situation, roughly equivalent to using his five senses.

  In fact, countless people in the world have never used the power of their souls much. They haven't even thought about using soul power to deal with enemies.

  This is the most direct benefit that soul change brings to people!

  Of course, Chen Ye also knew that the power of the soul could truly help him fight against his enemies. At the very least, he had to reach the stage of materialization. Before that, the attack of the soul's power was negligible. Chen Ye had never thought that it could be used as a helping hand in battle.

  It's because this is a battle against the three-legged fire dragon's spirit body, so I can use soul power!

  It was unknown how he could bring out a fighting power like the mysterious energy, but just now, he naturally brought it out.

  Could it be that this is the battle instinct of the soul after its transformation?

  "Master, it's exactly like that. After the soul transformation, one's own spiritual soul is equivalent to having independent spiritual wisdom. It can cultivate and fight on its own, with senses and feelings identical to yours... Of course, all of its actions are under the master's control. As long as the master doesn't want it to, the soul won't make any moves."

  Knife spirit explained, sensing what was on Chen Ye's mind at night.

  Hearing this, Chen Ye felt a bit more at ease. Since his soul could fight on its own, he didn't need to worry too much about it himself.

  However, it feels like, whether it's the Knife Spirit or the Ancient Emperor's Palace, they're all very relaxed now, without any of the tension from when they were fighting against the Three-Legged Fire Dragon. To think that the latter is currently in a state far superior to theirs... Chen Ye said faintly: "Knife Spirit, are you doing this on purpose?"

  The dagger spirit nodded slightly, and then smiled awkwardly: "It's not that I did it on purpose, but after the three-legged fire dragon appeared, I sensed its state, which wasn't as good as it seemed on the surface. So, I decided to do this."

  After a moment of silence, Knife Spirit said: "Master, whether it's me and the Ancient Emperor Palace or the Three-Legged Fire Dragon, we are all pitiful existences. After the great war back then, those who didn't turn to dust were lucky to have survived, and that's how we ended up in our current state."

  "Was it a big fight?"

  Chen Ye frowned and asked, "Is this three-legged fire dragon as well?"

  "Yes!" Knife Spirit replied: "The master of the Three-Legged Fire Dragon is a person who exists on the same level as the old master, and also fell with the old master."

  "The state of the three-legged fire dragon is not as good as it appears, in other words, it's not just a case of being strong on the surface but weak inside. Its foundation has actually been depleted. If its state were really that good, it would have awakened when we first arrived here and wouldn't have waited for several days to wake up from its slumber!"

  "What does it mean?" Chen Ye asked in a low voice.

  Pong!

  The soul's hand slapped heavily on the light beam, and the latter transformed into nothingness.

  Suddenly, the three-legged fire dragon's body moved, and it appeared directly in front of Chen Ye's soul. Those sharp horns, like a pair of razor-sharp swords, stabbed towards the center of Chen Ye's soul.

  A blurry soul stirred, and in an instant, a pair of palms flashed out like lightning, tightly grasping the dragon horns.

  "Haha, human kid, you're just this capable."

  The three-legged fire dragon laughed, and from the tip of its horn, two rays of light shot out again at incredible speed. At such a close distance, with a speed so fast, Zhen Ye's soul thought to dodge, but it was impossible to do so.

  Although Chen Ye had nothing at all, his soul was nowhere to be found, but Chen Ye's fighting consciousness was deeply rooted.

  Two rays of light shot out, and Zhen Ye's soul immediately loosened its grip on the dragon horn, rapidly retreating.

  The soul of the night was fast, and the speed of the three-legged fire dragon was not slow either. From start to finish, the latter's attack was always under his eyelids. If it were just a little slower, those two rays of light and the dragon's horn would have pierced through this hazy soul!

  "Heh heh, kid, if that's all you've got, then it's not worth my while. Today, you, Tian Dao, and those two annoying guys from Gu Di Temple are all going to become my energy."

  "Three-legged Fire Dragon, you're also a super master, how can't you understand that as long as the battle hasn't been decided yet, everything is still possible?"

  With a smile in the night, a thought in mind, that vague soul suddenly disappeared without a trace. When it reappeared, it was already above the head of the three-legged fire dragon. In the blurry shadow, two iron fists fell from the sky and heavily smashed out.

  Such divine power, Zhenye originally couldn't display it, but the soul is an intangible and formless thing, it's not restricted by space, so as long as Zhenye is willing, any shape, any action, can be transformed.

  Of course, if Chen Ye's soul hadn't undergone a transformation, all these would only exist in imagination.

  Pong!

  Soul Double Fist slammed down, the Three-Legged Fire Dragon was unable to dodge, and the formless yet powerful force directly blasted it, causing it to fall from mid-air to the ground, utterly miserable!
