Douluo: Rainbow Cat, Blue Cat, Seven Swords and Dragon Rider

Chapter 584 As long as there is a will, there is no death.

Inside the Heavenly Tomb, the projection of the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe appeared before Xiao Yan.

"I have met the senior Tuoshegudi."

"Sit down. I am pleased that you have the courage to accept my teachings. We cultivate the same technique, so we can be considered fellow disciples."

"Fellow disciples? Wasn't the Burning Technique created by the ancient emperor Tuoshegu?"

"No, I only obtained that cultivation technique after I gained spiritual intelligence. It was that cultivation technique that allowed me to grow from weak to strong and eventually become a Dou Di."

Based on my conversation with my friend Lan Hong, it seems that the Burning Technique is a product of the vast world above.

"The vast world, indeed. There are heavens beyond heavens and people beyond people. Becoming a Dou Di is far from the end."

The fact that the senior remained so low-key even after advancing to Dou Di suggests he understood that Dou Di were hardly considered experts in the vast world.

As Xiao Yan was thinking this, Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's next words brought him back to his senses.

"Xiao Yan, are you ready to accept my inheritance? If you fail, your soul and body will be destroyed, and there will be no chance of resurrection."

"I am ready, Senior Tuoshegudi, please begin."

Tuoshe Ancient Emperor nodded, and with a hand seal, he activated the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor inheritance within Xiao Yan's body. In an instant, Xiao Yan's entire body was surrounded by flames that constantly changed colors.

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Yan's body was completely incinerated by the flames, leaving only a wisp of his soul adrift.

"Failed? Failed so quickly? How is this possible? Didn't I have great fortune? Has my fortune already been exhausted?"

At this moment, Xiao Yan inevitably fell into confusion.

Xiao Xuan, who was protecting Xiao Yan inside the Heavenly Tomb, became excited when he saw Xiao Yan's body instantly incinerated by flames.

"Xiao Yan!"

Just as Xiao Xuan was about to do something, Lan Hong's voice appeared in his ear.

"Don't get so excited. This is just the beginning. The physical body inherited by the ancient emperor Tuoshe is the least important. After all, there is no such thing as a physical body for strange fires."

At this moment, the voice of Emperor Tuoshe also reached Xiao Yan's consciousness.

"With a heart as firm as a rock, as long as a single thought remains, one will not perish."

"With a heart as firm as a rock, as long as a single thought remains, one will not perish."

Xiao Yan repeated the sentence, sat down cross-legged to calm his mind, and focused on only one thing: to accept the inheritance, become a Dou Di, and defeat the Soul Emperor.

As Xiao Yan's mind stabilized, his body was reconstructed once again.

Xiao Xuan breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Xiao Yan's body reconstructed.

However, the next second, Xiao Yan's reconstructed body was once again incinerated by flames.

"How could this happen? Did we fail again?"

"I told you not to get so excited. This is a normal phenomenon when receiving the inheritance of Emperor Tuoshe. Only through constant destruction and rebirth can he truly master the inheritance of Emperor Tuoshe."

However, this is contingent on his mental fortitude. If his spirit falters, everything will vanish into nothingness, and not a trace of him will remain in the world.

Looking at Xiao Yan, whose body was constantly being destroyed and reconstructed amidst the colorful flames, Xiao Xuan could imagine the immense mental pressure he was under at that moment.

"Xiao Yan, keep going! You are the only hope for the Xiao clan."

Outside the Heavenly Tomb, everything seemed peaceful. Without the Soul-Devouring Life-Severing Array, the Central Plains remained prosperous.

Gu Yuan, Lei Ying, and Yan Jin are discussing their plans to enter the Soul Realm.

After going through countless hardships, they finally found a clue to the entrance to the Soul Realm.

"Should we now attempt to storm the entrance to the Soul Realm and invade it? You all have your opinions." Lei Ying and Yan Jin both fell silent. They spoke so lightly, but if they attacked the Soul Realm at this moment, and the Soul Emperor happened to advance to Dou Di at that exact time, they would both die.

However, if they don't take action, their situation will be equally dangerous once Soul Emperor advances to Dou Di. This is a dilemma.

"Gu Yuan, is it true that Xiao Yan went to receive the inheritance of the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe and is expected to break through to the Dou Di realm?"

"Yes, that is indeed true, but accepting the inheritance of the ancient emperor Tuoshe is very dangerous, and it is hard to say whether Xiao Yan can succeed."

Gu Yuan was actually against Xiao Yan taking the risk. After Xiao Yan left, Gu Xun'er lost her appetite and looked very worried, which pained him as her father.

But it's too late to say anything now. All we can do is pray that Xiao Yan succeeds, preferably before Soul Emperor advances to Dou Di.

Of course, Gu Yuan also knew that this possibility was very small.

"I suggest the three of us try to open the entrance to the Soul Realm. If we can, then we can consider advancing into the Soul Realm."

Lei Ying nodded in agreement with Yan Jin's words. If the entrance to the Soul Realm couldn't be opened, then talking about advancing into the Soul Realm was just nonsense.

"Okay, let's give it a try."

Without any delay, Gu Yuan, Lei Ying, and Yan Jin tore through space and found a broken spatial passage.

This is because the Soul Clan severed the spatial passage from within the Soul Realm. It's really hard to say whether Gu Yuan, Lei Ying, and Yan Jin can open it again.

The three exchanged a glance, then worked together to open a spatial passage.

This process was extremely difficult, and just when they thought they were going to fail, the space passage was suddenly opened.

But before the three of them could rejoice, a massive surge of blood energy swept over them.

"No, retreat!"

Gu Yuan, Lei Ying, and Yan Jin hurriedly retreated.

"Hehehe, Gu Yuan, you guys are really bold, daring to try to open up the spatial passage of the Soul Realm."

"You want to come in, is that it? I welcome you! The spatial passage is fully open; you can come in anytime. Do you dare? Hehehe!"

Gu Yuan, Lei Ying, and Yan Jin all had unusually happy expressions, and at the same time, they felt fortunate.

If they were to allow the three races to enter and flood into the Soul Realm at the same time as opening the spatial passage, the elites of the three races would be wiped out.

"The Soul Devouring Life-Severing Array inside the Soul Realm is still operating. Once our three races enter the Soul Realm, they will be devoured by the Soul Devouring Life-Severing Array."

"Even if the three of us go in, with the current strength of Soul Emperor who is about to become a Dou Di, we will probably become his nourishment."

"Sigh, there's nothing we can do but wait now."

Gu Yuan, Lei Ying, and Yan Jin felt exhausted and regretted not carrying the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade with them.

Gu Yuan deeply regretted his shortsightedness. If he hadn't stood by and watched the Xiao Clan be wiped out, the Soul Clan wouldn't have become so dominant.

Unfortunately, there's no going back in this world; every choice you make comes with a price.

Within the Soul Realm, Gu Yuan dared not enter, which was a pity for the Soul Emperor, who had really intended to use Gu Yuan, Lei Ying, and Yan Jin as nourishment.

The current nutrient supply is insufficient, although it is enough for him to become a Dou Di, but it will take longer.

The more time and variables there are, the more he has to endure it, but there's nothing he can do.

It's like the calm before the storm; the eruption will happen in an instant.
