Among all the heavens, I, Xiao Yan, did not use any cheat codes.

Chapter 25: The Soul Palace Attacks, Main Quest Now Open

The Xuan-rank Soul Envoy's cold voice was tinged with madness.

Staring at the exhausted Xiao Yan, the Soul Envoy slowly walked forward step by step, a hint of satisfaction on his face.

He was most hostile to those geniuses!

"In this remote and impoverished place, I never imagined you'd actually be a genius. Too bad you've met me. Struggle to your heart's content, let your soul be filled with resentment!"

Sure, sure, brother, give me a little more information!

As he gleaned the information from the other person's words, Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed slightly. The villains died from talking too much; that's certainly true.

First of all, Dou Qi Continent seems to be a classic place where combat power expands rapidly when changing maps, so this person should be from some organization.

Secondly, this guy wasn't just passing by; he came specifically for Xiao.

Third, this person must be someone who plays with the soul.

Staring at the dark figure in front of him, Xiao Yan could smell the strange odor in the air with a gentle sniff.

The composition is too complex; it's neither human nor ghost.

The aura emanating from him was the same strangeness he had sensed in the souls of those people earlier.

Immersed in analyzing intelligence, Xiao Yan ignored the Soul Envoy.

In the eyes of the other party, this was a common ailment of geniuses.

"You seem to rely heavily on that soul-burning flame? That's right, even a Heavenly Rank Soul Envoy is restrained by your flame, let alone a mere Profound Rank Soul Envoy like me."

But you're already exhausted. Even if I give you time to recover, you've already overdrawn your strength. How can you possibly unleash it again in such a short time?

What's the point of saying anything when a tiger is fallen into the plains? Being annihilated by a lonely ghost like me, your resentment will surely make your soul even more delicious.

As he spouted trash talk, the Soul Envoy's smile grew increasingly sinister. Why should those geniuses be able to fight beyond their level? Even a Great Dou Master like him could be defeated by a Dou Master!

He was unwilling! He was jealous! He wanted to become stronger step by step! He didn't hesitate to sacrifice his entire family, went through countless hardships, and even forced himself to become neither human nor ghost, before he finally became a Fighting Spirit!

Why should a genius be able to achieve this so easily?

"..." x2

"Is this guy out of his mind?" Xiao Yan transmitted his thoughts.

[This perfectly fits the definition of Xiao Yan as a brainless villain...]

Holding hands, Xiao Xun'er was slightly surprised by the voice in her mind and the secret technique that came with it, but she quickly accepted it and shook her head as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

She had lost her initial wariness; Xiao Yan's demeanor put her at ease, and she only needed to quietly watch Xiao Yan perform.

After venting his frustrations in the encrypted communication, Xiao Yan was about to lose his temper when he saw that inexplicable guy still frantically self-destructing.

[Soul Palace], [Soul Envoy], [The Gama Empire is a remote and impoverished place], [As a Fighting Spirit, the opponent has a very low status within the organization], and so on.

After listening for a while, seeing that the other party had stopped reporting information and started talking nonsense, Xiao Yan shook his head and sighed.

"Are you done talking?"

The soul envoy froze for a moment, his face, hidden beneath the hood, instantly contorted with rage.

It's this kind of genius's disregard!

"What are you so proud of?! Die!"

After a particularly piercing shriek, a large amount of black mist billowed out from within the black robe.

It transformed into dozens of souls that cried out in anguish.

Under the cover of the soul body, black chains, like venomous snakes, emerged and attacked Xiao Yan from all directions.

If Xiao Yan hadn't possessed the Samadhi True Fire, which damaged his soul, all the dead souls in the Jialie tribe's territory would have become his allies. The newly deceased souls would have been even more ferocious in their fight against the murderer who killed them.

It was only slightly regrettable, as the Soul Envoy didn't take it to heart. Fortunately, it was unintentional. Having Xiao Yan's soul body was far better than those rotten fish and shrimps that needed to be mixed with his soul to take shape.

Looking at the still calm Xiao Yan, the Soul Envoy's anger intensified even more. He was about to die and he was still so arrogant!

Xiao Yan only moved slowly when the vengeful spirit came within three zhang of him. His recovery speed was extraordinary. Although he didn't think he was cheating, Xiao Yan had to admit that he wasn't.

Moreover, the Samadhi True Fire is the unified sublimation of the three paths of essence, energy, and spirit, and the recovery of each level will rise step by step.

In the time it took to spout this trash talk, another cluster of Samadhi True Fire, enough to sustain the use of even the minimum Flame Dividing Wave Ruler, had been restored.

sieve!

Amidst the Soul Envoy's shock, a seemingly harmless yet extremely dangerous Samadhi True Fire reignited in Xiao Yan's palm.

With a slight smile, Xiao Yan raised his hand and enveloped Xun'er with all of his Samadhi True Fire, forming a protective shield.

This time, however, all remaining strength was completely drained.

"I'm sorry this surprised you; you underestimated me. But I'll teach you a lesson..."

Looking at the ecstatic Soul Envoy, Xiao Yan gently flipped his right hand, and a dozen jade bottles floated up in front of him. With a snap of his fingers, dozens of pure white pills, emitting a strong medicinal fragrance and carrying a feeling of purifying everything, pulsated in front of Xiao Yan.

Under the astonished gaze of the other party, half of the pill spontaneously combusted, turning into pure white flames that quickly flowed into Xiao Yan's body and transformed into pure energy.

And the other half.

"...Even if I'm completely exhausted, where do you get the nerve to spout all this nonsense at me?"

What are you barking at, you dog?

With a wave of his hand, dozens of Samadhi Pills pierced the air and flew whistlingly toward the Soul Envoy.

Without turning his head, Xiao Yan grabbed Xiao Xun'er and left.

Boom boom boom!!!

Behind them, flames soared into the sky, thick smoke billowed, and the sounds of explosions and agonizing screams filled the air.

Xiao Xun'er couldn't help but turn around, and saw that in the flames, the Soul Palace envoy's figure was almost instantly covered by flames. The fierce souls no longer had fierce expressions on their faces, as if they were being liberated by the flames.

Looking back again, gazing up at Xiao Yan's face, Xiao Xun'er's gaze lingered for a long time.

"Hehe, how was it? What do you think of that move?"

Xiao Yan chuckled, instantly ruining the somewhat romantic atmosphere, and gently hooked Xiao Xun'er's nose with his finger.

"...Hmph! Brother Xiao Yan didn't even bother to check if there would be any problems later on."

"Hey, a real man never looks back at an explosion!"

And I'm the kind of person who never goes back on my word.

Pouting, Xiao Xun'er was about to say something when Xiao Yan's voice came again.

"I was so focused on getting things done that I'm starving now. Xun'er, are you hungry?"

The abrupt turn of events startled Xiao Xun'er, but after thinking about Xiao Yan's somewhat unpredictable and capricious nature, she quickly smiled brightly.

"Okay, what are we having for dinner?"

"Yes, what do you want to eat?"

Xiao Yan fell into deep thought, but in the process, he suddenly remembered something important.

……

A moment later.

The land of the Jialie ethnic group.

Xiao Yan returned once again.

"Cough cough, I almost forgot about the tense and exciting looting part."

Xiao Xun'er followed behind Xiao Yan speechlessly, crossed her arms, tilted her head, and rolled her eyes dramatically.

"Didn't you say you never go back on your path?"

"Hehehe, special cases are handled specially." Xiao Yan didn't care at all, his soul power covering everything, touching this and that, having a great time.

Under his control, the flames retained some of the original Samadhi True Fire's special effects of only harming the soul and not the body.

Only harm the enemy, not the treasure.

I picked up quite a few storage rings along the way.

They soon arrived at the burial site of Nage Shui. Staring at the things on the ground, Xiao Yan was stunned.

"Wait, is this guy inhuman?!"

It was a crystal similar to the essence of a beast soul.
