Soul Devouring Sword Master

"Of course there is a way. You are now the successor of my Soul Devouring Sword Master. I will give you a gift for becoming my disciple."

As soon as the words fell, two white lights shot out from the tombstone, one sank into Lin Xiao's brow, and the other floated in front of him.

In an instant, Lin Xiao felt a large amount of information flooding into his mind like a tide.

"Soul Devouring Art, a non-grade Qi training method, ignoring the laws of the earth, devouring the earth's spiritual energy..."

Ignoring the laws of the earth, devouring the earth's spiritual energy, breaking the shackles of the earth, and practicing against the earth!

After learning about the information of this Soul Devouring Art, Lin Xiao was extremely shocked. This turned out to be a non-grade technique, and the effect of cultivation was so reversed that I am afraid that the entire Star Empire is unique.

"This Soul Devouring Art is the technique I used when I practiced thousands of years ago. Now I will give it to you. For you at this stage, it should be enough for you to use for a long time. If you practice this Soul Devouring Art to the highest level, your practice speed will far exceed that of people in the same world."

Same world!

Lin Xiao's eyes widened, and his heart was extremely shocked. Does it refer to the entire spirit world?

The world where Lin Xiao lives is called the Spirit World because the ground is full of spiritual energy. There are many continents in the Spirit World, and there are empires of different sizes on the continents. The empire where Lin Xiao lives is called the Star Empire.

Looking at the ring floating in front of him, Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment, "Senior, this is..."

"This is a formation ring, which contains a gathering spirit formation, which can gather the surrounding spiritual energy and improve your cultivation efficiency, but... this formation ring has not been nourished by spiritual energy for many years and has been damaged. It can only support ten formations at most."

"However, if you use spiritual stones to activate it, the number of times it can be used will increase."

"Thank you, Uncle Bai." Lin Xiao took the ring and thanked him with a fist.

"By the way, let me add that spiritual veins above level can evolve to higher grades under the constant nourishment of spiritual energy. Of course, it's too early for you now. This level one spiritual vein is enough for you for the time being."

Hearing this, Lin Xiao was shocked again. He had never heard of the fact that spiritual veins could evolve to higher grades.

Next, Lin Xiao's eyes fell on the sword that was inserted diagonally in front of the monument.

The sword was about five feet long and three fingers wide. It was rusty and had some cracks. It looked ordinary, but it exuded an ancient atmosphere.

It felt like a lion that had been sleeping for a thousand years. Once it woke up, it seemed to be able to tear the sky and destroy the earth.

Seeing Lin Xiao staring at the sword, Bai Yuan smiled and said, "This Soul Devouring Sword was once a divine sword!"

"Divine sword!" Lin Xiao's face was shocked beyond words.

Weapons are divided into ordinary, mysterious, spiritual, and holy according to their grades. It is said that there is also a divine grade. Lin Xiao could not imagine that the sword in front of him was actually a divine sword. He felt that his heart was about to burst.

"However, due to the battle a thousand years ago, this Soul Devouring Sword was severely damaged. Now it is just an ordinary ordinary sword. It needs the soul to keep warming to restore its grade."

"Soul warming?" Lin Xiao was stunned. He had never heard of such a weird thing.

Bai Yuan said, "That's right. The Soul Devouring Sword, as the name suggests, is a sword that can devour souls. The more souls it devours, the higher its grade and power. The reason why I am called the Soul Devouring Sword Master is largely related to this Soul Devouring Sword."

"Are there any requirements for souls?" Lin Xiao asked.

"Well, basically all souls can be devoured, such as demon souls, human souls, and beast souls, etc. Of course, the soul must be separated from the body before it can be devoured, that is, if you want to devour the soul, you must first kill the other party."

"In addition, this Soul Devouring Sword has many mysteries. When you encounter it later, I will explain them to you one by one."

"Thank you, Uncle Bai!"

"Okay, now you are the descendant of my Soul Devouring Sword Master. Come and take this Soul Devouring Sword. It may be a little painful when you draw the sword, but it will pass if you endure it."

Hearing this, Lin Xiao was overjoyed and hurried to the tombstone. Without hesitation, he directly grasped the hilt and was about to pull it out.

"Ah--" Lin Xiao screamed miserably, his face suddenly twisted, his hands suddenly loosened, and he fell to the ground with his butt, almost fainting from the pain.

When he drew the sword just now, Lin Xiao felt his soul trembling. It was a pain far beyond the physical body. He didn't want to go through it again.

"What are you doing? Stand up and draw it again." Bai Yuan urged.

"Uncle Bai, this is just a little pain for you. It's almost life-threatening." Lin Xiao couldn't help complaining. Thinking back to that pain, he was still frightened.

Bai Yuan coughed and said, "If you want to get this Soul Devouring Sword, you must establish a soul contract with it, and the way to establish it is that you have to withstand the pain of the backlash of the soul, otherwise, you can't control this Soul Devouring Sword."

"Get up, come again!" Bai Yuan shouted.

Lin Xiao gritted his teeth, made up his mind, stood up and walked to the Soul Devouring Sword, stretched out his hands tremblingly, but still didn't dare to take it.

"Don't you want revenge?"

Bai Yuan's words suddenly woke Lin Xiao up. Yes, he wanted revenge, he wanted to become stronger, and he wanted to take back what he had lost!

Recalling the heart-piercing pain when Lin Xier took away his pulse energy, as well as the ridicule he had suffered in the past three years, Lin Xiao felt a surge of anger in his heart, his eyes turned red, he roared, and suddenly grasped the hilt of the sword with both hands.

"Ah——" Lin Xiao screamed miserably, clenched his teeth, and felt as if his soul was being torn apart. The pain that penetrated his soul was even more painful than being cut into pieces!

After holding on for dozens of breaths, Lin Xiao was defeated again, lying on the ground gasping for breath, sweating profusely, and trembling.

"Damn it, I don't believe it!" After a short rest, Lin Xiao tried to draw his sword again.

Then, there was a series of tragic swords

This time, Lin Xiao held on for half an incense stick of time, but unfortunately he still failed in the end.

"Come again!"

Failed.

"Come again!"

In the darkness, the roar of the young man kept coming, and in the process of enduring pain, the young man's character was also tempered to be more and more tenacious.

Unknowingly, it was already night.

In the room, Lin Xiao lay on the bed, soaked in cold sweat and trembling, but his eyes were shining with excitement.

Lin Xiao spread his palm, and a black sword condensed in his palm.

After unremitting efforts, Lin Xiao finally pulled out the Soul Devouring Sword and established a soul contract with the Soul Devouring Sword, that is, now he is the Soul Devouring Sword Master.

Of course, compared with Bai Yuan, the old master of the Soul Devouring Sword, Lin Xiao is much weaker. The most important thing for him now is to quickly improve his strength.

Second, Lin Xiao came to the back mountain of the Lin family.

The back mountain is barren and overgrown with weeds. Generally, few people come here. Lin Xiao chose to practice here.

Lin Xiao found a secret location, took out the formation ring, and activated it according to the method Bai Yuan told him.

Soon, the formation ring flashed with light, and a surge of breath surged out, with Lin Xiao as the center, spreading in all directions.

Points of light fell within a radius of ten meters around Lin Xiao, and then connected with each other to form a series of complex marks.

As soon as the mark was formed, Lin Xiao felt that the surrounding air surged, and soon, within a radius of ten miles, wisps of spiritual energy gathered and gathered in the formation.

As the spiritual energy increased, the formation seal that absorbed the spiritual energy became brighter and brighter. Being in the center of the formation, Lin Xiao could clearly feel how strong the spiritual energy gathered around him was.

Soon, the fluctuations in the surrounding air gradually subsided, and the spiritual energy of the spirit gathering array also reached its limit.

Immediately, Lin Xiao sat cross-legged, raised his breath and concentrated his mind, and operated the Soul Swallowing Technique.

The Soul Swallowing Technique is divided into nine levels, and he can only use the first level now.

This Soul Swallowing Technique ignores the laws of the earth, can increase the absorption of spiritual energy, speed up the process of breaking through the realm, and complements this spirit gathering array.

As the spiritual energy continues to enter the body, Lin Xiao circulates the spiritual energy and impacts the spiritual points in the body.

The realm of warriors is divided into the spirit gathering realm, the spirit transformation realm, the mysterious spirit realm, etc. Each realm is divided into nine levels. Among them, in the spirit gathering realm, warriors need to open nine meridian gates.

Each meridian gate is traversed by nine spirit points. Every time one is opened, the realm will be raised by one level.

Chi——

There was a firecracker-like explosion in the body, indicating that a spirit point was broken. Lin Xiao concentrated all his attention and continued to impact the spirit point with the spiritual energy in his body.

The sun sets.

Unconsciously, three hours had passed, the mark of the spirit gathering array lost its luster, and the gathered spiritual energy began to dissipate.

Lin Xiao seized the last bit of time, absorbed as much spiritual energy as possible, and used this spiritual energy to impact the spirit cave. Finally, he opened his eyes.

"In just three hours, I opened a meridian gate and broke through from the first level of the spirit gathering realm to the second level of the spirit gathering realm. This soul swallowing technique is incredible." Lin Xiao said in surprise.

This soul swallowing technique can speed up the absorption of spiritual energy, so that the spiritual energy in Lin Xiao's body is endless and constantly impacts the spirit cave. In addition, the spirit gathering array provides a large amount of rich spiritual energy, which makes the breakthrough speed rise steadily.

The spiritual energy he absorbed in these three hours is enough for ordinary people to break through the third level. It can be seen that the spiritual vein has a great demand for spiritual energy, and can temper a stronger body accordingly.

Although Lin Xiao is only in the second level of the spirit gathering realm now, his strength is much stronger than the third level of the spirit gathering realm, and he can even fight against the fourth level of the spirit gathering realm.

This is the benefit of a high-grade spiritual vein. It is invincible in the same level, and there is no pressure in fighting across levels.

Just when Lin Xiao was about to leave, he suddenly heard a voice from a distance. He quickly hid in the bushes and held his breath.

Whoosh--

A sound of breaking through the air sounded, and a black-clothed figure appeared. Lin Xiao recognized it at a glance. It was the elder Lin Shi, who was also Lin Xier's father.

The elder looked around and frowned, "Strange, I clearly felt a very strong spiritual fluctuation here just now, but now there is nothing?"

"Did I feel it wrong?" The elder shook his head and turned to fly away.

After confirming that the elder had left, Lin Xiao came out and exhaled a long breath. Fortunately, he was not discovered by the elder, otherwise it would be dangerous.

Lin Xiao knew very well that the elder and his adoptive father Lin Feng had always been at odds, and even wanted to seize the position of the head of the family. If he discovered his spirit gathering array and other secrets, he would definitely kill him without hesitation and take away these things.

"This spirit gathering formation makes too much noise. I have to be more careful when using it next time." Lin Xiao whispered.
