Chapter 474: Chapter 245: Human Emperor Slays Demons, Ancient Corpse Devours Souls_3

As soon as Han Yi activated the Immortal Boat, he felt the space around him suddenly darken, and then brighten again. He found himself and the Immortal Boat suspended above a starry river, with twinkling stars all around.

His face had become extremely ugly.

During his last trip to Shu Du, he had learned about the Star River Monarch from Shi Heng’s memories, and he had looked up related information about this Monarch, so he naturally knew about his Spiritual Treasure, the All Heavens True Form Diagram.

For Monarch cultivators, some of them used top-grade magical treasures, while others used lower-grade Spiritual Treasures.

As for middle-grade Spiritual Treasures, only Spirit Transformation cultivators could possibly possess them.

Being trapped by this lower-grade Spiritual Treasure, Han Yi’s chances of escape had become impossible.

Next,

Before he could even react, the starlight rapidly flickered, and an overwhelming force firmly oppressed him. This force, naturally, came from the majesty of the lower-grade magical treasure.

Crackling sounds.

Han Yi exerted his full strength. The Ancient God Visualization Method had already made his body incredibly strong, but even so, merely raising his head consumed all his energy.

After raising his head, he saw a pair of eyes filled with demon energy and a sense of decay flashing past the starry river.

“Is this… the Spiritual Treasure Space?”

Han Yi’s thoughts flashed in his mind, but he had no other plan.

Generally speaking, after a high-grade magical treasure underwent a long period of refining and nourishing, it could possibly give birth to faint divine consciousness. When the magical treasure reached the level of a top-grade treasure, this spirit gradually strengthened.

When the magical treasure evolved into a Spiritual Treasure, its spirit underwent a complete transformation. The spirit of the Spiritual Treasure began to walk the path of the Spirit Clan.

Besides, the biggest change was the birth of the Spiritual Treasure Space within the Spiritual Treasure, which was like creating a small world within the Spiritual Treasure. Initially, this small world may only be the same size as a storage bag’s space, but gradually it grew larger and more perfect.

According to legend, when a Spiritual Treasure evolved into an Immortal Artifact, the small world within it would progressively transform into a real world.

Therefore,

When Han Yi realized that he had been trapped in the All Heavens True Form Diagram’s Spiritual Treasure Space in the blink of an eye, his heart was filled with despair.

This was the gap between Golden Core and Nascent Soul, and moreover, his opponent was not the early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator who was easily killed by those on the Master List, but an actual late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

Even a simple display of power was enough to leave Han Yi without recourse. Time passed slowly in the starry river, but Han Yi never gave up. He struggled to move while practicing the Ancient God Visualization Method. However, Han Yi speculated that even if this technique could reach the level of “Breaking through the mortal and entering the holy,” it would still be unable to escape the pressure of the Spiritual Treasure.

After an unknown amount of time,

The Spiritual Treasure’s oppressive force on his body disappeared, and Han Yi was immediately able to move. In an instant, four Spiritual Talismans appeared in his hand. However, the next moment, a spirit light penetrated his body, causing his whole body’s magical power to stagnate.

Even though he held four Spiritual Talismans in his hand, at this moment, he did not have a bit of magical power to activate them.

Han Yi looked up and saw Star River Monarch sitting on a piece of jade.

Around them, they were in a cave, which could not be called anything but small, with a size of about three hundred square meters. On one side of the cave, luminous stones were embedded, emitting a faint glow, making the entire cave not look dark.

“Where is this?” Han Yi’s eyebrows twitched wildly as he already suspected the intention of the Star River Monarch.

The fact that he hadn’t killed him directly, as well as the grudges between them, showed that the Star River Monarch was heavily injured. Black demon energy would occasionally emerge from his body and vanish.

It was clear what the Star River Monarch intended when he abducted Han Yi.

Body snatching.

The other party wanted to seize his body.

But as he thought about the black bead in his Sea of Consciousness, Han Yi’s heart suddenly became resolute. Even if he really faced a body snatching attempt, and the Soul Tower’s Four Soul Skill wouldn’t work, that black bead in his Sea of Consciousness would never sit idly by.

Han Yi’s inner thoughts were extremely fast.

However, as the Star River Monarch sat on the jade, he also suddenly deteriorated after releasing a ray of spirit light with a finger. His body trembled violently, and the demon energy within him surged out wildly, as if an air-leaking balloon that rapidly deflated.

All he could do was to pour the last bit of his magical power into his robe. The entire cave was filled with starlight, bright and dazzling. Then, he could no longer support this body, and his Nascent Soul soared from the top of his skull.

It was a miniature version of the Star River Monarch with solid divine soul energy. Even if he couldn’t seize a body, he could still exist for an extended period.

However,

At present, the Nascent Soul was not in its peak state, but was continuously being attacked by invisible forces that left cracks on the surface of the Nascent Soul. Although these injuries wouldn’t immediately kill him, they wouldn’t last long either.

“Human Emperor Sword.”

“No wonder it’s the most powerful Half-Immortal Item in the Yu Heng Realm.”

Star River Monarch’s heart grew fierce, but he dared not mention the name that terrified him.

Next.

With one step, he was about to flee into Han Yi’s Sea of Consciousness.

The biggest reason he kidnapped Han Yi was that he knew time was running out, and encountering Han Yi was the greatest fortune.

At this moment.

Star River Monarch’s escaping Nascent Soul suddenly stopped, its eyes fixed on something behind Han Yi, flickering with confusion, making Han Yi holding the Spiritual Talisman feel a sudden chill down his spine.

“Behind me??”

“Is he trying to trick me? No, there’s absolutely no need to trick me, there must be something that appeared behind me.”

“What is it?”

As Han Yi’s doubts surfaced, the eyes of the escaping Star River Monarch suddenly revealed extreme fear. Han Yi knew that look; it would only appear when encountering something far beyond his realm and imagination.

The next moment.

Han Yi saw the half-meter-tall Nascent Soul, whooshing past, flying straight behind him.

No.

It wasn’t ‘flying’.

It was being sucked away by something.

Then.

The sound of chewing and swallowing came from behind him.

Han Yi’s pupils dilated instantly, and a touch of extreme horror surfaced, immediately reaching its peak.

He was scared.

This unknown terror sent chills down his spine.

In the next instant, the sound behind him disappeared.

Then.

The starlight in the cave quickly converged, turning into a tom All Heavens True Form Diagram, fluttering downward.

As the starlight converged, Han Yi hurled himself forward, and as his body hit the ground, he ricocheted to the left.

The two third-stage premium Spiritual Talismans in his hand, the Mysterious Capital Divine Light Talisman and the Taiyi God Extinguishing Talisman, were already in a semi-activated state.

What horrified him was that there was nothing behind him, not even a shadow.

He spread his divine consciousness and gently waved his hand; the Giant Tower Sword, Green Reed Sword, and Yuan Xi Knife turned into three rays of light, traveling around his body.

But even so, he didn’t feel a shred of security.

His eyes swept the entire cave. Within this less-than-300-square-meter cave, apart from the sword lights and knife shadows, it was completely silent.

Unbelievable.

Han Yi dared not even pick up the All Heavens True Form Diagram on the ground nor the shriveled Qiankun Ring on Star River Monarch’s body, as he retreated and flew away from the cave, his eyes and divine consciousness fixated on the cave.

A moment later.

Having flown more than ten kilometers away from the cave, Han Yi finally took a deep breath. However, his doubts remained, and his heart palpitated.

“Just now, there must have been something strange that ate Star River Monarch’s Nascent Soul.”

What Han Yi didn’t know was that at this moment.

Within his Qiankun Ring, the Ancient Corpse obtained from the fallen debris of Yuan Lao Mountain had opened its eyes, its pupils flickering with some mysterious symbols, like a command.

“…Extinguish, Extinguishing Ancient Plan…Cut, the Eighth…Epoch, Daluo, shatter…failure, restart, failure…”

In the end.

It slowly faded, and everything returned to silence..
