Chapter 1879 : Lingxiao Imperial Son, True Spirit Body

"Success."

Just as the 7 supreme powerhouses sensed something, Eldrin opened his eyes.

He watched as Lyra gradually emerged from her secluded cultivation, a faint smile unconsciously appearing in his gaze.

"How are you feeling, Lyra?"

Lyra opened her eyes and, after briefly sensing the power within her, remarked, "So this is the True Spirit Primordial Soul—truly an unprecedented level of power."

Her heart swelled with pleasant surprise as she began to explain her True Spirit Primordial Soul to Eldrin.

This time, the True Spirit Primordial Soul Lyra had cultivated opened 9 innate acupoints, just like Eldrin—this was the fundamental foundation a True Spirit Primordial Soul ought to possess.

However, unlike Eldrin, the true spirit imprints she obtained were not as numerous. After completing the transformation of her primordial true spirit, only a small portion remained—less than 1-tenth of what was needed to fill her first innate acupoint.

"It appears that even after achieving the True Spirit Primordial Soul, the True Spirit Marks obtained may differ."

Eldrin murmured softly, and after a long while, he smiled and said, "With this breakthrough, your strength is no longer what it used to be. It seems we can have a bit more confidence in the battles to come."

Lyra nodded slightly and said, "Continue your cultivation for now. We'll discuss everything else after you emerge from seclusion."

"Very well."

Eldrin gave a slight nod and continued his secluded cultivation of the Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body.

Meanwhile, outside the Soul-Annihilation Ancient Grounds, several figures gazed with grave expressions toward its depths.

Had Eldrin (Person Name) been present, he would have undoubtedly recognized the newcomers as the Celestial Son of Firmament from the Golden-Winged Great Peng lineage, along with other Peng-clan imperial scions like Fallen Heaven's Abyss from the Dark Great Peng tribe and Azure Sky Peng.

At this moment, Eldrin gazed upon the Soul-Annihilation Ancient Grounds before him, his eyes turning slightly frosty as he remarked, "I have already investigated. It was none other than Umbra and the Abyssal Return faction who conquered these Soul-Annihilation Ancient Grounds."

"Indeed, it is them."

The Son of the Vaulted Emperor’s face turned cold as he recalled Eldrin’s (Person Name) earth-shattering combat prowess, a frosty glint flashing in his eyes.

Seeing this, the Azure Skyhawk seized the moment to interject, "I've heard that even the Eldrin Crown Prince of the Shadowveil suffered a major loss at his hands. If our 2 sides join forces, could we capture this group?"

"I'm afraid it won't be enough."

The Son of the Vaulted Heaven Emperor spoke, his gaze icy as he declared, "This Abyssal Return Daoist possesses a dual True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) foundation. With him alone, he reigns supreme and unmatched across the ancient immortal realms. Unless 1 cultivates a True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) foundation, it is impossible to stand against him."

Seeing this, Duotianque sneered coldly and said, "I believe there is 1 person who would be most intrigued by him."

"You mean?"

Witnessing this, the Eldrin (Person Name) could not help but let golden light erupt from his eyes.

The Son of the Vault Heaven Emperor also nodded, a cold sneer on his face as he remarked, "From what I know, the Little Celestial Emperor Lingxiao has entered this tribulation precisely to find a whetstone."

"For him, if he could defeat or slay a True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) bearer, he would have a high chance of cultivating a second True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) foundation. I believe once he learns of this, he will never let such a golden opportunity slip away."

"A True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) foundation can also perish?"

Beside them, another Imperial Scion of the Golden-Winged Great Peng Clan could not help but exclaim, his face revealing utter astonishment as he spoke.

"Indeed, it is so." The Son of the Vaulted Heaven Emperor nodded, then spoke, "From what I know, although the True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) foundation is indestructible and immortal, it is not entirely without means of destruction. With sufficiently formidable power, it can be slain."

"Of course, this 'slaying' is but temporary. It would be more accurate to say they've fallen into deep slumber. Given the eternal nature of True Spirit's indestructibility, this is merely a temporary dormancy—sooner or later, they shall awaken again."

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but smile faintly.

The gaze of the Fallen Heaven Palace was icy as he sneered coldly, "If we could invite His Majesty the Little Celestial Emperor, that insignificant Abyssal Return would stand no chance. I shall go seek out His Majesty the Little Celestial Emperor at once."

However, the Son of the Heavenly Vault Emperor stopped him, his expression grave as he spoke, "There is no need to rush. After all, the Master of the Returning Abyss is a true prodigy of the spirit realm. I fear the Young Celestial Emperor alone may not have full confidence in killing him."

"Very well. Go seek out the Young Master Kunpeng, the Phoenix Princess, and His Highness Zhuyin—our demon race's mightiest champions. Even if it takes more time, we must make thorough preparations to eradicate that whelp of the Returning Abyss in the Soul-Devouring Ancient Lands."

Upon hearing this, Duotian Que nodded with a smile. "The Crown Prince's insight is truly profound. Even if that little runt Guixu could withstand the Golden Crow Little Celestial Emperor, once we summon the Kunpeng Crown Prince and the Azure Phoenix Princess along with the others, that wretched Guixu will find no path to heaven nor door to earth—utterly trapped."

As the words fell, the Fallen Heaven Palace immediately tore through the sky, heading toward the distant end of the ethereal heavens.

Meanwhile, Eldrin remained unaware of the impending danger. At this very moment, he was secluded in cultivation atop the Soul-Annihilating Peak, continuously honing his physical strength by harnessing the Soul-Annihilating Wind.

While cultivating with the Soul-Devouring Wind, he simultaneously channeled the Chaos Divine Thunder and the Chaos Millstone, continuously striking and tempering his physical body.

Thus time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of years had passed. His Primordial Chaos Indestructible Body was now only 1 step away from full completion.

Just as he was 1 step away from completion, outside the Soul-Annihilation Ancient Grounds, a group of Demon Clan Imperial Sons were watching the ancient lands with icy expressions.

Amidst this gathering stood a total of 30-7 8-tribulation ancient immortals.

Leading them was the Golden Crow Young Celestial Emperor 'Lingxiao (Person Name)', accompanied by 3 other peerless emperor-level prodigies: 'Kunpengzi (Person Name)', 'Zhuyin (Person Name)', and the '5-Colored Peacock (Person Name)'.

Among the 4, Ling Xiao had not only cultivated a True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) foundation, but also possessed a set of array artifacts comparable to a True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) foundation. His combat prowess was undoubtedly exceptional.

The other 3 were all genuine Invincible Ancient Immortals in terms of combat prowess, each capable of rivaling a dozen or so 8-Calamity Ancient Immortals.

Beneath these 4 individuals were top-tier 8 Calamity Ancient Immortals of the caliber of the Sky Emperor's Scion. They had each cultivated 1 or 2 Indestructible Foundations, enabling them to hold their own against 2 ordinary 8 Calamity Ancient Immortals simultaneously. The most exceptional among them could even contend with as many as 5 at once.

However, such individuals were exceedingly rare, numbering only 7 in total: the Netherworld Venerable (Title), the Primordial Demon Dragon (Mythical Beast), the Crimson Sun Imperial Son (Title), the Azure Sun Imperial Daughter (Title), the Northern Sea Profound Turtle (Mythical Beast), the Celestial Emperor's Son (Title), and the Shadow Crow Prince (Title).

Those below were either those who had failed to cultivate an Indestructible Foundation, or had barely managed to establish a single 1. Their strength was not particularly outstanding.

Even so, with a full True Spirit Imperial Scion, 3 invincible 8-tribulation ancient immortals, 7 indestructible foundation experts, and these 30-some 8-tribulation ancient immortals—such a force should be enough to sweep through everything across the entire Ancient Immortal Ruins Continent.

Observing the assembled figures around him, Zhuyin remarked with a faint smile, "30-7 8-Tribulation Ancient Immortals—this gathering already represents the majority of the demon race's most elite cultivators at this realm."

"The last time such power was united, it must have been when the Carefree Immortal Lord assaulted the Soul-Annihilation Ancient Lands, wasn't it?"

Kunpengzi also smiled faintly, his gaze serene as he remarked, "After 70 kalpas, the Soul-Annihilation Ancient Ground has once again gathered such immense power. This can truly be called a legendary tale."

"What a pity. The Phoenix Clan's Celestial Azure Phoenix Princess secured a Great Luo Dao Field some years ago and is still in secluded cultivation. Otherwise, with all the top-tier supreme powerhouses of the demon race gathered, we could have swept through the human and god races with unstoppable force."

Upon hearing this, everyone present also revealed a faint smile.

Seeing this, the Little Celestial Emperor of the Golden Crow casually waved his hand and activated the Soul-Annihilating Ancient Ground as he declared, “It matters not if the Azure Phoenix Imperial Daughter is absent. With our strength, we are more than enough to suppress all opposition.”

Upon witnessing this, Princess Kong Ling of the 5-Colored Peacock Clan narrowed her eyes with solemn intensity. "I've heard this Master of the Returning Abyss has cultivated a True Spiritual Root foundation," she remarked. "Such a figure cannot be underestimated. While we may be capable of defeating him, it remains uncertain whether we can truly eliminate him."

"Rest assured, this venerable 1 has long been prepared."

At that moment, the Golden Crow Little Emperor drew from his sleeve a small pagoda shimmering with golden radiance.

Golden Crow Tower

Everyone who witnessed this scene was struck with astonishment.

But in the next instant, they all came to their senses. The Kunpeng Imperial Heir chuckled and remarked, "A replica of the Golden Crow Tower, imbued with a trace of its true form’s divine power. It seems the Heavenly Emperor truly holds the Imperial Heir in high regard."

The Golden Crow Young Celestial Emperor smiled faintly upon hearing this and said, "Though it is an imitation, this treasure still possesses the power to seal heaven and earth. None beneath the Great Roaming Golden Immortal realm can break through its confinement and escape."

"Of course, to ensure the impartiality of the Tribulation, existences beyond Ancient Immortals are forbidden from intervening. Thus, this treasure contains only sealing capabilities—Father preserved no additional effects within it."

It turned out that the Golden Crow Tower was originally 1 of the Primordial Treasures wielded by the Sun Celestial Emperor, a treasure so coveted that even Chaos Origin Imperial Monarchs would dream of obtaining it.

It must be understood that due to the scarcity of Primordial Chaos Qi, the vast majority of Chaos Heavenly Emperors who ascended through post-natal cultivation within this boundless chaos possess no Chaos Spirit Treasures to anchor their destinies.

Many of the Chaos Heavenly Emperors utilized supreme treasures of Dao attainment—rare wonders of the Primordial Chaos Treasure (Supreme Treasure) grade.

Like the 7 Primordial Celestial Emperors of the Primal Immortal Domain, all possessed innate primordial ranks. Yet, only the Celestial Emperor of Primordial Beginnings, the Celestial Emperor of the Purple Pole, the Dao Ancestor of Primordial Commencement, the Celestial Emperor of the Solar Essence, and the Immortal Sage of the Abyssal Heavens wielded Primordial Spiritual Treasures(Magic Treasure).

Of the remaining Primal Phoenix and Candle Dragon, due to unforeseen events in their early years and their relatively late attainment of the Dao, they currently possess no companion Chaos Spiritual Treasures.

Among the 7 domains of the Southern Abyss, there existed 20-some Dao Ancestors and Immortal Sages, yet fewer than half of them possessed a Chaos Spiritual Treasure as their innate companion.

Under such circumstances, 1 could see just how precious Primordial Treasures were.

The Golden Crow Tower in the hands of the Little Solar Emperor was merely a replica, yet it contained a wisp of power from its true form. Even if it were only the sealing force, it would still be enough to be called unparalleled throughout the ages.

Without the strength of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, it would be impossible to breach the blockade of the Golden Crow Tower.

At this thought, the Son of the Vaulted Heaven Emperor couldn't help but remark, "If that's the case, it seems the Abyssal Return Taoist is doomed."

"To die or not to die—we'll only know after crossing blades."

The Celestial Scion Lingxiao spoke up, then said with a smile, "I'm afraid the news of our gathering here cannot remain concealed for long. In at most a few tens of thousands of years, the Ancient Immortals of both the Human and Deity races, as well as the 100 Clans of the Fey, will catch wind of it."

"To prevent them from causing trouble, we must act immediately. We shall use the Golden Crow Tower to set up a formation sealing the Soul-Annihilation Ancient Grounds before dealing with them."

As the words fell, the demon clan members immediately sprang into action. They compelled countless Celestial Immortals and low-level Ancient Immortals to channel their magical power, erecting a grand sealing formation beyond the Soul-Devouring Ancient Grounds.

"Damn it!"

Meanwhile, beneath the Land of Soul Extinction, everyone sensed that something was amiss.

Youwu soared into the heavens, intent on disrupting their formation, but was sent hurtling back, coughing up blood, from a casual backhand strike by the Golden Crow Little Celestial Emperor.

Golden Crow Little Celestial Emperor

In that instant, Youwu stumbled back into the formation, her face deathly pale as she grasped Lyra (Person Name) and asked, "The demon race has gathered dozens of 8-Calamity Ancient Immortals. Such power is simply beyond our ability to contend with."

"When will Fellow Daoist Guixu emerge from seclusion?"

Lyra gazed at the horizon, her brow slightly furrowed as she murmured, "At best, he'll emerge in a few 1000 years. At worst, no later than 20 1000 years."

"Several 1000 to tens of thousands of years?" A deep furrow formed between the brows of the Rift Sky Demon Emperor as he spoke involuntarily, "I'm afraid we cannot hold out for that long."

"I shall command the formation."

Lyra decisively took over the formation, directing everyone to further reinforce the Zhoutai Great Yi Golden Bamboo Sword Array.

Leveraging the Great Eldrin Earth Vein of the Soul-Annihilation Ancient Ground and the might of the innate spiritual treasure, they further integrated the Mystic Heaven Mirror and the Yin-Yang Myriad Crow Vessel into the sword formation.

The Profound Heaven Mirror was a supreme defensive treasure, and with the empowerment of the Great Luo Earth Vein, its power instantly multiplied. Meanwhile, the Yin-Yang Myriad Crows Jar unleashed astonishing force—bolstered by the earth vein, the strength of the myriad crows surged dramatically.

Especially the Yin-Yang Twin Crow Emperors, bolstered by the earth veins and formation arrays, had their cultivation and combat prowess elevated by a full 1 or 2 major realms. Either 1 of them was capable of confronting 2 or 3 8-tribulation ancient immortals joining forces.

After setting up the grand formation, Youwu remarked with some regret, "It's a pity our cultivation base is insufficient—we couldn't deploy a true Great Luo Formation."

"Otherwise, with the power of the Great Luo Earth Vein and the innate spiritual treasure, once the formation is activated, it would be sufficient to withstand attacks from a Great Luo Golden Immortal. Given their strength, they simply wouldn’t be able to overcome it."

Lyra shook her head and said calmly, "The Great Dao Ancient Formation involves the power of complete Dao Principles, requiring a true Golden Immortal of the Great Dao to deploy it. With our current cultivation base, it's simply impossible for us to set it up."

Just as they had reinforced the grand formation, the demon clan had already completed their sealing array and charged toward the Soul-Annihilation Ancient Land.

The Son of the Vault Emperor was the first to strike, summoning a divine spear to thrust forward, yet in the blink of an eye, he was sent flying backward by a counterblow.

Upon seeing this, Kunpengzi furrowed his brow slightly and remarked, "An array within an array. It seems their mastery of formations is quite profound."

"The human race's innate talent in the 100 Arts of Daoism is always truly enviable."

Empress Kong Ling let out a soft sigh and immediately activated a feathered fan, soaring into the sky. It transformed into countless divine rays of the Great Dao, crashing down like torrential rain upon the formation, only to be deflected 1 after another by the Mysterious Heaven Mirror.

Seeing this, Imperial Son Lingxiao’s gaze sharpened. Above his head, his life-bound array treasure, the Diagram of the Pure Yang Cosmic Cycle, manifested abruptly. Within the unfurled scroll, 10 great suns soared into the sky, radiating a power capable of scorching heaven and earth as they refined the grand formation.

But in that very instant, Lyra activated the Great Celestial Cycle Taiyi Golden Bamboo. 3 100 60-5 Taiyi Golden Bamboo Swords materialized in a flash, obliterating everything in their path. With power capable of suppressing the very fabric of the cosmos, they enveloped the Pure Yang Cosmic Diagram, locking it in an inextricable struggle where neither side could gain the upper hand.

"Yet a single set of the Great Yin Golden Bamboo Sword Array, when amplified by the Supreme Luo Earth Vein, could unleash such devastating power?"

The gaze of the Crown Prince of Lingxiao chilled imperceptibly as he immediately amplified the power of his Life-Bound Array Artifact.

At that moment, Eldrin (Person Name) spoke up from the side, "The Abyssal Devourer (Mythical Creature) hasn't made its move yet. If we expend too much spiritual power on the formation array now, it might seize the opportunity to escape when the true battle commences."

"Why not have the Eldrin under your command use the Chaos Ancient Ships to deplete this formation?"

Hearing this, a faint frown also creased the brows of the Eldrin.

This formation was, after all, laid using the Great Luo Earth Vein. Though he was confident in his ability to break it, doing so would inevitably drain a tremendous amount of his energy. By the time he faced Eldrin afterward, he might not be able to gain the upper hand.

After all, according to the intelligence he possessed, Eldrin had successfully cultivated a foundation with dual True Spiritual Roots. Even in a 1-on-1 confrontation, he couldn't confidently claim absolute suppression.

At this thought, the Eldrin Imperial Heir offered no reply, merely storing away the painting depicting 10 suns scorching the heavens.

The others immediately spoke up upon seeing this, "Have someone bring the treasure ship over."

As the words fell, from under the banners of the various Imperial Sons of the Demon Race, a full several 1000 Chaos Ancient Ships descended upon the skies. Each vessel was equipped with Innate Giant Cannons, and under the propulsion of countless Celestial Immortals, they unleashed their fire upon the true formations of the Soul-Devouring Ancient Land.

For an 8-Calamity Ancient Immortal, the Primordial Cannon posed little threat. Though it possessed immense destructive power, actually striking an Ancient Immortal with it was nearly impossible.

Even for Chaos Beast Kings, such an Annihilation Cannon had become largely obsolete. Thus, after reaching the Celestial Immortal realm, the Annihilation Cannon gradually fell out of use.

Only a select few Great Luo Ancient Sects possess the ability to refine them, employing these artifacts to breach the defensive formations of Chaos Nests.

It must be said, the innate cannons of this Primordial Chaos Ancient Ship were truly a fine treasure for breaching mountain protection arrays.

Fortunately, the struggle of the Cosmic Tribulation was not a conflict between Great Perfection forces. The various major powers had brought only a limited number of Chaos Ancient Ships, and the equipped Annihilation Cannons were scarce. For the time being, they were unable to breach the formations of the Soul-Devouring Ancient Land.

Thus time flew by. Lyra (Person Name) and the others continuously maintained the great formation, holding on tenaciously against the relentless assaults of the demon race. In what seemed like the blink of an eye, 8 1000 years had passed.

Until this very day, the mountain-protecting grand formation could no longer hold, shattered outright by countless world-obliterating cannons.

"Damn it."

On this day, as the formation was visibly breaking, Lyra (Person Name) wore a grave expression and immediately cautioned everyone, saying, "Remember, your safety must come above all else."

"Boom—"

At the same time, the demon tribe members swarmed in for the kill.

The Golden Crow Celestial Emperor was the first to strike, the painting in his hand depicting 10 suns soaring across the heavens unfurled, seeking to suppress everyone within the formation.

"How dare you!"

In that instant, Lyra (Person Name) fully activated the Minor Heavenly Cycle Taiyi Golden Bamboo Sword Array, joining forces with the Golden Crow Little Celestial Emperor to resist. Astonishingly, they managed to hold back the 10 Suns Aligning in the Heavens Formation Diagram (Magic Treasure).

This startled the Golden Crow Little Heavenly Emperor, who instinctively glanced at Lyra (Person Name) before exclaiming in astonishment, "True Spirit Primordial Soul?"

"Excellent. It seems that this time, by eliminating you and Guixu, not only will I achieve a foundation with dual True Spiritual Roots, but even a foundation with 3 True Spiritual Roots is within reach."

As the words faded, the Zhou Heaven Formation Diagram swept across the heavens and, after a brief stalemate, suppressed the Minor Zhou Heaven Taiyi Golden Bamboo Sword Formation.

Lyra's face paled slightly, not due to any lack of strength on her part, but because the Zhoutian Array Diagram was far too powerful.

An array formation composed of a full 11 innate spiritual treasures—such profound foundation, how many across the 3 1000 Immortal Realms could possibly achieve this?

I'm afraid the vast majority of Great Luo Golden Immortals wouldn't possess such profound foundations and wealth.

The Golden Crow Celestial Emperor suppressed Lyra (Person Name) and sneered coldly, "If I'm not mistaken, the Abyssal Ruins haven't emerged yet—most likely still at the most critical juncture of secluded cultivation, aren't they?"

"Hahaha! It seems today is fated for my ascension to the Dao."

"Is that so?"

At that very moment, a calm voice descended from the vast heavens.

Everyone’s hearts jolted in alarm, and they immediately turned their gazes toward the summit of Soul-Devouring Mountain. There, from within the endless eye of the storm, emerged a figure clad in robes as white as snow.

"Boom!"

In that fleeting moment, the crowd witnessed a spatial fissure gradually tearing open at the boundless, mist-shrouded end of the heavenly chasm.

Within that fissure, an endless stream of True Spirit imprints surged forth like a mighty river, pouring into the individual's body and merging completely with every inch of his physical form.

Immediately, they discovered that upon that person's physical body, countless true spirit imprints had transformed into eternal Dao patterns, radiating an undying, indestructible light of eternity.

Until all fell into tranquility, those eternal Dao patterns faded into invisibility, leaving only a snow-robed figure standing in place.

True Spirit Body.

The Young Golden Crow Emperor spoke, a trace of gloom flashing across his expression.

In that moment, shock surged through him, mingled with a trace of unconcealable greed. A voice echoed in his heart: "Kill him. Slay him, and I shall forge the foundation of 3 True Spiritual Roots (Spiritual Root)."

A fleeting moment of greed and covetousness sent waves of overwhelming excitement coursing through him.

With a mere flick of his sleeve, he summoned the Diagram of 10 Suns Crowning the Heavens, unleashing it to descend upon Eldrin with overwhelming force.

"The Innate Spiritual Treasure Array Diagram truly lives up to the legacy of the Celestial Emperor's direct bloodline."

Eldrin spoke with an air of nonchalance, yet with a mere flick of his sleeve, he summoned the Primordial Chaos Grasping Hand, effortlessly suppressing the Scroll of 10 Suns Aflame.

The Golden Crow Young Celestial Emperor was utterly astounded, unable to refrain from exclaiming, "Impossible! Given your current cultivation realm and magical power, how could you possibly suppress my Life-Bound Array Artifact?"

"Nothing is impossible."

Eldrin spoke coldly, his tone serene as he stated, "This set of array artifacts is truly extraordinary. If your cultivation had reached the Great Elder Realm, relying on them might have allowed you to withstand a mid-stage Great Elder."

"Yet without having entered the Great Luo Realm, how much of its power can you truly unleash?"

Boom—

As the words faded, a thunderous roar erupted.

Eldrin took a single step that shattered the void, arriving before the Golden Crow Young Celestial Emperor. With a thunderous roar, he unleashed a devastating punch.

The Golden Crow Celestial Emperor drew near, seeking to block with all his might, yet in an instant was sent flying, crashing straight through an ancient divine mountain.

When he regained his senses, he stared at Eldrin with disbelief and said, "Impossible. We both possess True Spirit Bodies, so how can you be this powerful?"

"Even among True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) foundations, there exists disparity."

Eldrin sneered coldly before speaking. "For you, establishing a True Spiritual Root foundation is your absolute limit. But for me, the reason I achieved a True Spiritual Body is because it represents the ultimate pinnacle a physical form can attain."

Upon hearing this, the Eldrin’s complexion turned deathly pale, an expression of utter disbelief spreading across his face.

An innate True Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) is akin to an examination paper—he scored a perfect grade because his capability allowed it, whereas Eldrin (Person Name) achieved full marks only because the paper itself was capped at a 100 points.

Thus, even though both had scored 1 100 points, their true strength was still not on the same level.

"No, I refuse to believe it!"

An instant later, a furious roar erupted from Imperial Son Lingxiao. Nearly deranged, he snarled, "This lord’s physical aptitude is peerless under the heavens! No 1 could possibly surpass me in the path of bodily cultivation. You must have drawn upon the power of your True Spirit Primordial Soul!"

As the words fell, Imperial Son Lingxiao charged forth in near delirium.
