A martial artist in the realm of Qi Sea cannot yet activate soul consciousness. Only by achieving innate cultivation and becoming a martial artist can they possess the power of soul perception, also known as divine consciousness.
If one reaches the realm of the Martial Arts School of Refining Gods, their soul can condense into a primordial spirit, and their divine consciousness becomes even more powerful.
The so-called giving up refers to infiltrating the opponent's sea of consciousness with the power of the soul, devouring their soul, and thus occupying their body.
So when Su Jingyun's soul power flooded into Luo Xiu's sea of consciousness, his consciousness was also forcibly pulled into his own sea of consciousness.
Luo Xiu's soul has merged with the Life and Death Pearl, and in the gray sea space, a black and white pearl is suspended.
"What is this thing?"
The soul power of Su Jingyun transformed into a humanoid phantom and appeared in Luo Xiu's sea of consciousness.
He saw the life and death pearl in Luo Xiu's sea of consciousness, as if he could feel the mystery of the origin of life and death from it.
Su Jingyun himself is a martial arts master who cultivates the power of death. When he saw the Life and Death Pearl, he immediately knew that it was a precious treasure. If he could obtain it, his future achievements would be limitless.
"Haha, the heavens have treated me well and have given me such an opportunity!"
Su Jingyun laughed heartily and reached out to grab the Life and Death Pearl. He had already discovered that the soul of this Qi Sea Warrior was integrated with the pearl. By refining this pearl, not only could he obtain treasures, but he could also refine the opponent's soul and possess a body.
However, at this moment, the Bead of Life and Death spread an ancient and vicissitudes aura. Before Su Jingyun's hand could touch the Bead of Life and Death, it disintegrated inch by inch, shattered and eliminated.
Immediately after, a devouring force emanated from the Life and Death Pearl, pulling Su Jingyun's soul and soul directly into it.
Luo Xiu was stunned, and in the next moment, his consciousness had already entered the world inside the Pearl of Life and Death.
Above my head, there is an endless universe of stars, and the dots of light resembling stars are the traces of life of a certain creature in this universe.
The ancient cycle hangs in the air, eternal and timeless.
Despite the changes of one inheritor after another, only this reincarnation that governs the life and death of all things will never change.
"The weak heir..."
The sound of the spirit of reincarnation resounds, as if echoing in the vast universe and starry sky.
The last time he came here, Luo Xiu obtained the nine primordial law diagrams of the Heavenly Life and Death Wheel, as well as the cultivation method of the Quick Sword Technique. The former can be obtained by every inheritor of the life and death primordial law, while the latter is a gift of the primordial law he obtained by breaking through the Qi Sea realm.
The spirit of reincarnation once said that only when his cultivation breaks through the sea of qi and reaches innate level, will he come here again to receive the gift of the law of origin.
And he had not yet reached his innate state, yet he came here again.
Last time, it was because his life was threatened, and this time, it was because he was almost taken away.
"Wealthy inheritor, you should be grateful that what has taken you away is only a small warrior, and only a broken primordial spirit." The voice of the Spirit of Reincarnation had no emotional fluctuations.
"If it is a strong person who has set foot in the realm of Emperor Wu who has taken you away, you may have already died, and the cycle of life and death will also choose the next successor on your own."
"Under the protection of the law of the origin of life and death, when you first faced a threat to your life and were taken away for the first time, following the will of the law's origin, I can only help you once. I hope you can take care of yourself, weak inheritor..."
The spirit of reincarnation did not give Luo Xiu a chance to speak. After it finished speaking, a spinning sensation emerged, and then Luo Xiu's consciousness withdrew and returned to its original form.
After Luo Xiu opened his eyes, he saw Lu Mengyao looking at him with a worried expression on his face.
Thinking of his almost lost experience, he still felt some lingering fear.
At the end of the day, his own strength is still too weak. If there were no Life and Death Beads, he would definitely have been successfully taken away by Su Jingyun as a small Qi Sea warrior.
A pure soul power escaped from the pearl of life and death, and was then absorbed by Luo Xiu's own soul. He knew that this was the soul power contained in Su Jingyun's broken elemental god.
As for Su Jingyun, a powerful warrior, his consciousness hidden in the primordial spirit was directly erased by the primordial laws within the Pearl of Life and Death.
Speaking of which, it is also unfortunate for Su Jingyun. The spirit of reincarnation, following the law of origin, will only protect the inheritor when it is taken away for the first time. However, Su Jingyun happened to catch up with this first time and also hit the mark.
After a moment, Luo Xiu absorbed the power of his soul and was pleasantly surprised to find that he could vaguely sense things within a range of over 100 meters without having to look with his eyes.
"Is this... soul perception ability?" Luo Xiu was both surprised and delighted in his heart. As far as he knew, only a martial artist who had reached the innate level of cultivation would have this soul perception ability.
However, some weaker innate martial artists do not even possess this ability.
But as a warrior with a six fold aura, he already possesses this ability.
Although Su Jingyun was dead, the aura of death that permeated the cave ahead did not dissipate.
"You wait for me here."
The death energy in the valley has been fully absorbed and refined by Luo Xiu, so he plans to explore it in the cave.
The cave was filled with the aura of death, and Lu Mengyao couldn't resist it, so she simply let her wait outside.
"Be careful," Lu Mengyao nodded. She didn't know what Luo Xiu had just done, but she could feel that he had done something amazing, making her feel even less familiar with Luo Xiu. It seemed that this fourteen year old boy was full of mystery.
She knew there must be some secret about Luo Xiu, otherwise she couldn't explain why he had improved his cultivation and strength so quickly in less than a year.
The cave is cold and humid, and the deeper it goes, the stronger and purer the aura of death becomes.
Suddenly, Luo Xiu felt a sharp pain in his foot. He looked closely and saw a fragment the size of a fingernail. He had just stepped on this fragment and injured the sole of his foot.
The material of the fragments is special, and as he continued to delve deeper, he discovered more than ten similar fragments. If these fragments were combined together, they should be a ground level combat weapon.
Luo Xiu speculated that this warrior should have been a weapon used by Su Jingyun during his lifetime, and he didn't know what kind of opponent he had encountered. Not only did the warrior shatter, but his physical body also dissipated, leaving only a broken strand of elemental spirit struggling to survive.
After a moment, Luo Xiu arrived at the deepest part of the cave, chasing the source of the scattered breath of death. He saw a black stone the size of a fist.
And next to this black stone, I saw a broken corpse, with a storage ring on its left hand and fragments of soldiers or armor on the ground.
This corpse should be the remains of the powerful warrior Su Jingyun.
Luo Xiu approached cautiously, making sure there was no danger before reaching out to grab the black stone.
At the moment he grabbed the black stone, a cold and bone chilling breath rushed into his body, making him feel his body suddenly numb and stiff.
"It's actually a Yin stone, the weak heir. You're lucky," Luo Xiu's mind suddenly heard the voice of the spirit of reincarnation.
Normally, the spirit of reincarnation would not pay attention to him, but suddenly a sound came out. Obviously, this thing called the Yin Stone by it should be very extraordinary.
"Yin stones contain Yin Qi, which belongs to the power of death. Absorbing and refining can greatly improve your cultivation."
"Is there also a lot of power in death?" Luo Xiu couldn't help but wonder.
"That's right, it's not right either, because the pure power of life, or the power of death, already belongs to the category of laws, and under the laws, there are also many attributes of power that contain the breath of death."
"For example, in yin and yang, the yin attribute contains the breath of death, while the yang attribute contains the breath of life. Even if it sublimates to the level of laws, the laws of life and death must override the laws of yin and yang."
"The Yin stone in front of you is of average condition, but for you as a Qi Sea warrior, it is enough for you to use."
The spirit of reincarnation said these things, which Luo Xiu couldn't understand, but he knew that this yin stone had a great effect on improving his cultivation.
Luo Xiu immediately put away this Yin stone, and then took off the ring on Su Jingyun's left hand, which was piled up with tens of thousands of medium grade vitality stones, as well as hundreds of high-grade vitality stones.
In addition, there are two jade slips that brighten Luo Xiu's eyes.
As far as he knows, only strong individuals above the realm of refining gods and martial arts can use divine consciousness to engrave jade slips. They must achieve innate cultivation and possess the power of soul perception in order to explore the content of the jade slips.
So, generally, truly advanced things are recorded in jade slips, and those who are qualified to be recorded in jade slips are said to have the lowest level and are also at the level of seventh grade martial arts!
Apart from the Yuanqi Stone and two jade slips, this storage ring does not contain items such as war soldiers, elixirs, or array treasures.
Luo Xiu was already able to release his soul perception, so he took out those two jade slips and attached his perception to them. The information recorded in the jade slips flooded into his mind.
One of the jade slips records the formation, and the highest level formation has reached the level of a sixth level mage.
From this, it can be seen that Su Jingyun, who has already died, is not only a powerful warrior, but also a formation master who has reached the sixth level!
The other jade slip records a seventh grade martial arts, the Underworld Xuanluo Gong.
Among them, there are also martial arts and body techniques that are matched with the Underworld Xuanluo Gong.
Luo Xiu has heard that a complete set of martial arts, techniques, and body techniques is considered a complete martial arts.
However, for martial arts that are similar to those of the Martial Arts Hall and the Xiaoyao Gate, with separate body techniques and martial arts techniques, they are not considered complete martial arts.
Luo Xiu's Heavenly Life and Death Wheel belongs to a complete martial arts, but whether it is martial arts, martial arts skills, or body methods, he needs to understand them on his own from the nine primordial law diagrams.
After putting these things away, Luo Xiu carefully searched again and did not find any other valuable treasures before walking out of the cave.
The Yin stone has been collected by him, so there is no longer a cold aura spreading out.
Seeing Luo Xiu walking out of the cave, Lu Mengyao didn't know what had happened inside, but Luo Xiu didn't say it himself, so she couldn't take the initiative to inquire.
According to the records in the jade slips, this valley was shrouded in a level six trapped formation, which was left behind by Su Jingyun. The entrance to the valley is the formation gate, which can only enter but cannot exit.
There are only two ways to break through this level six trapped formation: one is to forcefully break through the formation, and the other is to find the location of the formation gate.
However, in order to forcefully break through the level six trap formation, at least one must have a cultivation level of martial arts level strength.
"If we want to leave here, we need to break the formation of this valley."
After shouting at Lu Mengyao, Luo Xiu began to study the jade slip that recorded knowledge of formations.
I have previously studied the formation foundation obtained from Zhang Haifei's hands, and theoretically it has reached the level of a third-order formation mage. Therefore, although the formation concept recorded in this jade slip is relatively complicated and obscure, Luo Xiu is not unable to understand it.
In the process of studying formations, the first diagram of the primordial laws of the birth and death wheels of the heavens will come to mind, and those strange patterns and runes seem to come to life, arranged and combined in various ways.
Unconsciously, ten days had passed, and Luo Xiu slowly opened his eyes.
In the past, when he read the source map of the rules, it was like reading a heavenly book, and he couldn't understand what those pattern runes meant.
It was not until later that I obtained the foundation of the formation from Zhang Haifei's ring and used the method of formation to verify each other, that I finally understood many things that I didn't understand before.
From shallow to deep, gradually progressing, he finally gained a considerable understanding of the first primordial rule diagram, and his formation skills reached the level of a fifth order array mage in theory.
The reason why it is said in theory is that Luo Xiu's cultivation level is too low. Even if he is given materials and formation flags, he cannot arrange a level five formation, nor can he refine a level five formation treasure.
Not to mention being at level five, based on his cultivation level, he can at most arrange a level three formation.
However, with the current level of formation proficiency, it is no longer a problem to step out of this difficult formation.
