Extreme Emperor Soul

  After an unknown period of time, Su Qing slowly opened his eyes, feeling weak all over. He found himself lying on the bed, while his father, Su Han, sat beside him, looking at him with concern in his eyes, which warmed his heart instantly.

  Su Han saw Su Qingchen wake up and smiled slightly, then immediately looked at Su Qingchen with a serious face: "Are you sure?"

  Su Qingchen didn't say a word, nodded her head and used her firm gaze to show her determination to her father.

  Su Han sighed and said, "Since you've made up your mind, I won't stop you anymore." Su Han stretched out his right hand, and a book appeared in front of Su Qingchen.

  "When you reach the 9th level of Spiritual Master, you can leave this place." After finishing speaking, Su Han stood up and walked out.

  Su Qingchen opened the book, and the content inside introduced the Violet Gold Continent, which was ruled by six major powers: the Tianbing Empire, the Blue Feather Empire, the War Soul Empire, the Shengong Empire, the Mercenary Empire, and the Totem Empire. The strongest was the Totem Empire, located in the far north of the continent, composed of various beast tribes. The weakest was the Mercenary Empire, but the current strongest person on the continent was the Barbarian King of the Mercenary Empire, with a strength of High-Level Soul Venerable.

  Soul Masters are the most noble and sacred profession on the mainland. The symbol of becoming a Soul Master is to cultivate to Spirit Knight and awaken the soul spirit. The soul power value is divided into zero to nine levels, with zero being primary, one to three being low-level, four to six being mid-level, seven to nine being high-level. The levels of Soul Masters are: Spirit Knight, Spirit Being, Spirit Master, Great Spirit Master, Spirit Sect, Spirit King, Soul Honored One, Phantom Saint, and Dream Emperor. For many years, the mainland has not seen a Soul Master at the level of Phantom Saint, while the Dream Emperor only exists in ancient legends.

  The cultivation manual of the soul is called Soul Decision, and the skill used by the soul is called Soul Skill. It is divided into four levels: Blue Mirror, Green Dazzle, Purple Crystal, and Cyan Phantom, which are further divided into High, Medium, and Low. Generally, the highest level of Soul Decision and Soul Skill on the mainland is Green Dazzle High Rank, and whether the Purple Crystal level exists or not is unknown to anyone.

  When Su Qingchen finished reading this book, the whole book turned into twinkling starlight, which then formed lines of words.

  Blue Boundary Low-Rank Devouring Heaven Technique, so far no one has successfully cultivated it. Seeing this, Su Qingchen was shocked and puzzled at the same time: Why is it that only a Blue Boundary-level soul technique has no one successfully cultivating it? However, this name is really domineering.

  At the same time that Su Qingchen was stunned, the floating words in front of her eyes were deeply imprinted on her mind. After a moment, Su Qingchen was shocked - could this really be the soul decision of the lower level of the Blue Realm?

  Everyone who cultivates to the Spirit Master must go through the Soul Decision to operate the soul power, absorb the power of heaven and earth to forge the soul, and make their own soul power progress. This Devouring Heaven Decision is a kind of cultivation method for cultivating soul power, it's just that it's too special, its cultivation method is completely different from the general soul decision for cultivating soul power.

  Generally, soul power cultivation methods, regardless of level, are based on methods such as meditation and sitting in stillness to stimulate one's own potential and absorb the power of heaven and earth. However, this "Devouring Heaven Technique" is an exception, its cultivation method is extremely simple, simply cultivating soul power and then nourishing one's soul spirit with that soul power.

  The soul force is accumulated from level 1 to level 9, and then all of it is transferred to the soul spirit, nourishing the soul spirit to evolve. It can be said that it is extremely simple, but also difficult to the extreme. If the soul spirit evolution fails, the soul force will return to level 1 and start over again. Other soul skills have bottlenecks, but this Devouring Heaven skill does not, and success or failure depends entirely on luck.

  Su Qingchen was left crying and laughing at the same time by this Heaven-Devouring Technique, every time he transferred all his soul power to his soul spirit, his body would become extremely weak, just like how Su Qingchen directly fainted previously, but this technique could reach the legendary Dream Emperor realm in the end, it's just that no one had succeeded yet.

  Su Qingchen had originally planned to ask the Wine Ghost Old Man for a Soul Decree again, but he suddenly discovered that as long as he started absorbing the spiritual energy in the air, the Devouring Heaven Decree would automatically operate. In other words, Su Qingchen could only cultivate the Devouring Heaven Decree and was unable to cultivate any other Soul Decrees.

  At this time, Su Qingchen couldn't help but glare at the sky outside the window, pointing at the old heaven and spewing out a string of profanities. If there really was an Old Heaven in this world, it would probably be blown away by Su Qingchen's anger, maybe even prompting the Thunder God to strike down a divine thunderbolt to teach this ignorant guy a lesson.

  After a moment, Su Qingchen calmed down. He remembered that his Xuanming Cultivation was body-refining, which could complement each other perfectly. Was this considered consolation for him? With a sigh, Su Qingchen sat cross-legged on the bed, and the faint energy in his body began to circulate. In just two hours, his soul power successfully broke through to level one. Su Qingchen slowly opened his eyes, overjoyed.

  In fact, when he was unconscious, Su Han injected a large amount of soul power into his body. Just now, when he circulated the soul power in his body, he happened to transform Su Han's soul power into his own soul power, which allowed him to break through zero-level and enter low-ranking spiritual master in just two hours.

  After several days of bitter practice, Su Qingchen's soul power was able to circulate within his body in one cycle, and the phenomenon of automatic absorption of soul power when summoning a soul spirit no longer appeared, and he officially became a Soul Master.

  Su Han was shocked to learn that Su Qingchen had practiced the Devouring Heaven Technique, as the book was only an introduction to the mainland and he never thought such a thing would happen. After thinking for several days, Su Han felt that this was also good, as if he were to pass on the Su Family's Soul Decree to Su Qingchen, it would definitely be discovered by outsiders and bring about deadly trouble. So, Su Han taught Su Qingchen a set of mid-grade soul techniques from the Blue Mirror, called Duan Jian Zhan, which he had obtained from a soul master during a hunt for a spiritual beast.

  Three years later

  The sky was just bright, Su Qingchen already stood on the flat ground at the top of a small hill, with a layer of blue gas flashing all over his body, like armor worn on his body. He struck out the first move of Leifengquan's eight moves, "Cunshang", with a flowing cloud and water-like movement, and every punch would strike out blue gas. The Thunder Fist is an attacking technique that matches the Xuanming Gong in the previous life, but Su Qingchen couldn't cultivate it because his yuanqi couldn't be released.

  Excitement and joy, Su Qingchen's face revealed a long-lost smile. The second layer of Xuan Ming Gong had successfully cultivated to the middle and late stages, greatly improving his physical strength. The first form of Lei Quan also successfully practiced dark energy. Su Qingchen's soul power had reached level 9, an 11-year-old high-ranking spiritual master.

  If the world knew, they would definitely not believe it. A genius? Absolutely a freakish genius! But how many people know what lies behind his success? How much sweat has Su Qingchen paid for it? More than 1,000 days and nights, without wasting a single moment, wholeheartedly practicing... Who can believe that an eight-year-old child has such perseverance?

  In three years, not only has his cultivation improved greatly, but his body has also undergone tremendous changes. The current Su Qingchen is tall and sturdy, with broad shoulders, looking very robust. A pair of bright and spirited black eyes, a head of short black hair, wearing a linen garment, with sleeves rolled up, revealing arms that shone with a healthy bronze glow. His eyebrows were even more heroic. He didn't look particularly handsome, but he gave people a good impression, and the words "honest" and "simple" suited him perfectly.

  As a 9th-level spiritual master, Su Qingchen is about to leave Lianyun Village and return to the outside world once again. The path of becoming a strong master will not be smooth sailing, he faces life-and-death trials.

  Su Qingchen gathered a few pieces of clothing, took a letter from his father and walked out of the thatched cottage. He greeted the neighbors on both sides, looked back at the thatched cottage, turned around and headed towards the outside of the village. In his heart, he said to himself: The beauties of the Zijin Continent are waiting for me, Su Qingchen is coming.

  The door curtain was lifted, and a tall figure walked out from inside. Su Han's eyes didn't have a hint of sleepiness. When he reached the doorway, he could still vaguely see Su Qingchen's figure. Su Han stood there motionless, watching as Su Qingchen's back disappeared completely. He remained standing there for a while.

  For the past three years, he has been proud and delighted with Su Qingchen's efforts, but at the same time, he is also very worried. Such a heavy responsibility is placed on an eleven-year-old child, and he doesn't know if what he is doing is right or wrong.

  Su Qingchen walked out of Lianyun Village, crossed over three mountain peaks, and arrived at the Luoshen Forest before nightfall.

  His father told him to keep walking west, crossing the Sunset Forest and entering the territory of the Blue Feather Empire. Su Qingchen's final destination was Stan Academy in the Imperial City. The most famous soul master academy on the Purple Gold Continent, every year's graduates will become the object of pursuit by major families.

  The Sunset Forest is one of the seven major forests on the Violet Gold Continent, ranking last. It is notorious for its ferocious beasts, and every year a large number of Soul Masters enter it to hunt them down.

  Su Qingchen sat cross-legged at the edge of the forest, circulating his Qi to recover from the exhaustion. After a few hours, he felt restored and looked up at the setting sun in the distance. He took a deep breath and entered the forest, knowing that he had to be constantly on guard against ferocious beasts.

  In the quiet forest, Su Qingchen walked quickly, her vigilant eyes constantly scanning the dark areas among the surrounding trees. The Xuanming skill was activated, and a blue gas enveloped her body, ready to respond to any sudden situation at any time.

  After walking through a small forest, the sky completely darkened, and Su Qingchen sat down on an empty land, taking out food from his waistband. Suddenly, he heard a rustling sound coming from behind him. Su Qingchen instantly summoned his soul spirit and turned around to see a red python snake coiled on the tree. This snake belonged to the first rank of ferocious beasts, equivalent to the strength of a fifth-level human spiritual master. The snake's body contained highly toxic venom, which was very common in the outer periphery of the Luori Forest.

  Su Qingchen's eyes were fixed on the Red Practice Snake, and as soon as it moved, he sprang up, pouring his soul power into his soul spirit. The short sword emitted a blue light, and with a swift slash of the Breaking Air Slash, it cut through the snake's seven inches in an instant. One sword strike killed the first-level ferocious beast, the Red Practice Snake. After killing it, he didn't find any trace of a spiritual core within its body, which made Su Qingchen let out a slightly disappointed sigh.

  Although he easily killed the fierce beast, Su Qingchen found that his soul power had actually been consumed by a third. He couldn't help but secretly scold his Soul Devouring Decree, what a broken decree, using just one Blue Mirror middle-stage soul technique and yet the consumption was so great.

  Devouring Heaven Technique is just a low-level soul technique of Blue Mirror, fortunately Su Qingchen is a 9th level spirit master, otherwise using mid-level soul techniques would probably exhaust his soul power in one go. This has only just entered the Sunset Forest, going deeper and encountering higher-level fierce beasts or packs of fierce beasts... traversing the forest can be said to be extremely perilous.
