Martial Emperor Reborn Vol 1 Chapter 81

Ch 081 Controlled Faith
At this moment, s.p.a.ce faintly distorted for a bit. That powerful strike of lightning actually pa.s.sed right through that incorporeal figure, yet did it was ineffective.

“What?”

The Sky-rending elder exclaimed faintly, he frowned and immediately waved his hand and controlled the lightning to fire again but the spirit had already disappeared.

And after the lightning attacked, it hit one of the Manton clan’s magically reinforced buildings with an earth shattering sound causing the ground to tremble and affecting the nearby buildings.

The building along with it’s magic construct were instantly ruined. A more than a hundred meters giant black hole was now in its place with black smoke still rising and burning purple flames flickering which were making a ‘chi chi’ sound.

This display once again scared the Ju Ding Sect members at the door, looking at the vacant eyed, Purple-Robed figure with extreme respect and fear.

The Manton clan’s matter naturally attracted a lot of interest.

But  at the moment, it already had nothing to do with Li Xuan. He silently opened his eyes and spat out a mouthful of blood.

“A 6th He 5th layer ancestor, am not much weaker than my opponent, and this is the strength of this world? Good! If the distance is short I can force my soul oppression on my opponent’s soul and shake it or even hurt it, but I can’t destroy it! If I use this time as an example, then my previous estimate was right! This time, however, to capture part of Ka Luoya’s spiritual energy is an added bonus!

The spiritual energy is enough to heal my soul by another one-tenth! This is a large gain, however it has also shocked this elder, soon all these contradictions will be resolved! Before the old man wanted to come to this point, in practice, that is, if I want to escape, I needed to plant a seed of fear, therefore I didn’t attack.”                                                                                     { ok so this paragraph was difficult 可惜，如果是在現場，那些能量，足夠再次提升十分之一了！不過，這次收獲也大，這件事，有這老者出手，那些矛盾等也就全部被化解了！想來之前這老者在修煉緊要關頭，這才沒有出手，若非如此，我要逃脫，怕是要花些心思。 for those of u who care to make suggestions}

Li Xuan thought for a while, he was satisfied with this trial.

But whilst he was satisfied with the results, Li Xuan’s heart was a little more concerned, due to understanding that whilst soul oppression is powerful, every use is also very dangerous, and short-term can not be used to kill an enemy.

If only used to scare or disrupt the opponent’s mind, then it is a good supporting skill, but if used to fight, its the same as killing oneself eight hundred thousand times, after all once the soul leaves the body using spirit force, any real damage and that’s the same as ending in ashes.

Despite the situation, Li Xuan’s mental ability, he part.i.tioned a piece of his spirit to form a soul core,which acts as the ‘sun’ of the solar system in his dantian. If his own soul actually collapses, though, he won’t be able to take control of his body, and all functions within his dantian will only work autonomously. Even if he lived at that point, his soul would be dead, without his soul his body may be alive but it will only be an empty husk surviving on Li Xuan’s past instincts.

This is one of Li Xuan’s greatest fears!

Moreover, the dangers involved in using the soul was seemingly straightforward and Li Xuan was firmly aware,  encountering a lone 5th Xing envoy or an injured 5th Xing envoy, killing them may result in slight soul damage, but confronting a 5th Xing 5th layer or stronger would be considerably dangerous! If he faced a 6th He ancestor, then being able to scare or avert them is already the best he can do, and if they are shocked from fear, a tragic death is their fate.

Therefore, to enhance his strength, is still the crux of the matter.

Now that Li Xuan spirit increased, he decided to have one portion of his spirit be devoted to practicing the art of Xing Yi Quan and will tweak it as his soul grows stronger, and when it’s exhausted….. it’ll study the magic and alchemy of this world….. Whilst another portion of his spirit shall be used to practice the Xing Yi Quan magic combat skills and elemental meditation, with no clash occurring between them.

After coming to a decision, Li Xuan took the fragments of Ka Luoya’s spirit force that he had absorbed between his eyebrows from the group of fragmented spirit energy and began refining it, he then quietly left the room that he was in.

Now that the elder was out and searching for the spirit he noticed earlier, he had to leave quickly as this place will be discovered soon.

After flickering away, Li Xuan changed his body structure again, this time he looked like a teenager, he was wearing a light green three-star low grade wood attribute spell robe, on his face was a smile with a pure and simple look and some honest points of bashfulness of just entering the world, walking in the street.

There were people on the street moving here and there, with a lively atmosphere, however no one noticed the boy in fact, before he suddenly trembled and slightly faltered in his movement.

“Yes…..my soul improved by one ninth, if I can get a few more such strong souls, I might be able to restore one-eighth! There are fifty days or so, before going to the Imperial College, in general, the spirit of magical beasts is far better than human instinct. I will first go into closed door training then sneak into the magical beast forest, and then I’ll capture some Ju Ding Sect elites soul, that way I can restore one-eighth, or even one-seventh!

To restore one-eighth, or one-seventh, I can rely on soul oppression to kill 5th Xing 10th layer envoys, and even confront 5th Xing envoys without any need to fear….”

Li Xuan thinks to himself, for all of this, he strongly believes it’s in his control, as it is difficult for things to escape outside his calculations.

……………

Iris city, five people from one of the major powers in the surrounding clan and sects, Li clan, Yama clan, Manton clan, Thousand Yue clan , Fang clan, Wen Heart Palace, Hao Yue sect and the Ju Ding sect.

The Thousand Yue clan, has a higher number of women than men, and is therefore a more feminine magic clan.At the moment, five boys and girls from the Thousand Yue clan, are talking together.

“That Li Xuan, sixteen years old, a 3rd Fen magister, ugh, this kind of talent, it’s really unthinkable!” A girl with a crisp voice said.

“Yes ah, although his character is a bit poor, he is a genius, but he looks down on everyone!” Another teenage exclaimed.
