Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 62 Sealing

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai noticed the wary look on the old man's face and realized that the old man had misunderstood his identity and background.

But he has other purposes today, so there's no need for him to use any grand gestures or bluffing tactics.

Besides, with his current strength, he doesn't need to do that when facing the old man's current Dou Ling cultivation level; he can just tell the truth.

"Sir, please don't worry, I am a native of the Gama Empire!"

Upon hearing this, the old man chose to believe him, because people from that kind of power all had a sense of looking down on the Jia Ma Empire and would not say that they were from the Jia Ma Empire, as they would consider it an insult.

But then he became a little angry. Although Xiao Bai spoke gently, his confidence was evident, as if to say that with his current cultivation level, it was not worth it for him to pretend to be the successor of a super power.

"Good, good, I never imagined that after more than twenty years of seclusion, the Gama Empire would produce a junior like you. If I were to fall at your hands today, how could I ever face anyone in the Gama Empire again?"

Putting aside his worries, the old man straightened up again.

He stretched out his withered, aged hand to his side, and the surrounding icy mist quickly condensed into an ice-blue spear on his palm. At the same time, a thick set of ice armor that shimmered with an icy blue light also condensed on his body.

Xiao Bai watched with great interest as the old man completed his transformation, inwardly praising him, "Damn, so cool!"

The old man's weapon and ice armor were both formed from condensed battle qi.

In the Dou Qi Continent, once a person reaches the level of a Great Dou Master, they can release their Dou Qi outwards, covering their weapons with it to greatly increase their attack power.

For the old man to condense his battle qi into a tangible weapon and armor like this, one would need at least the cultivation level of Battle Spirit to barely manage it.

The old man held the ice spear upside down, his hand tightening suddenly. Then, the ice spear, carrying a chilling and bone-piercing force, thrust violently towards Xiao Bai.

Xiao Bai focused his soul on sensing, and the incredibly swift ice spear slowed down in his vision. Just as the spear tip was about to pierce his head, he slightly tilted his head to dodge it, then raised his hand, made a sword finger gesture, and touched the spearhead.

A streak of crimson lightning flashed at his fingertips, traveling along the ice spear towards the old man's arm that held it. Along its path, the ice spear shattered inch by inch, instantly vaporizing.

Seeing this, the old man hurriedly let go and retreated rapidly, but it was too late. A ray of lightning shot into his palm, and his withered hand instantly turned crimson with lightning. He hurriedly used his ice-attribute battle qi to resist the lightning that was spreading along his arm.

It took the old man quite a while to clear away that wisp of lightning. He couldn't help but exhale a long breath, looking at the charred black color on his palm.

"What domineering lightning and fire!"

Looking at the calm young man in black who didn't make a move when he cleared away the lightning and fire, he couldn't help but feel a little goodwill towards him.

"Kid, take my last move. If you can withstand this, the incomplete map is yours!"

Without waiting for Xiao Bai's reply, he quickly formed hand seals, and the surrounding ice-attribute battle qi surged towards him, gradually forming a dragon shadow.

Seeing this, Xiao Bai didn't wait any longer and launched a soul attack directly. Who wants to wait for you to slowly unleash your ultimate move!

Before the old man could finish shouting "Mystic Ice Dragon," he felt a wave of dizziness, his hand seal was interrupted, and the dragon shape that was forming slowly dissipated.

A flash of lightning appeared beneath Xiao Bai's feet, and he used the Lightning Step to arrive directly in front of the old man. His hands quickly formed a hand seal, and a soul sealing array was rapidly created, which he then placed directly on the old man's brow.

When the old man recovered, his eyes were still somewhat dazed, but he soon became fully conscious.

He felt that his usually sharp senses had changed, becoming less acute, and upon closer inspection, it seemed as if something was blocking them.

"This is...this is..." The old man's lips trembled slightly. He was all too familiar with this feeling. For over twenty years, the fighting spirit within him had felt just like this; whenever he used it, he felt it being suppressed.

"This is a seal, a soul seal!" He felt like he was going crazy. It was bad enough that his fighting spirit was sealed, but now his soul was sealed too. What the hell was going on?!

Is it possible that Ice Emperor Hai Bodong is destined to be sealed away for the rest of his life?

"You brat, I'll kill you!" Hai Bodong roared, on the verge of collapse.

"Oh no, Xiao Bai, this old guy is going to self-destruct!" Yao Lao sensed Hai Bodong's actions and hurriedly transmitted his voice to Xiao Bai.

"Don't worry, senior, he can't explode!" After Xiao Bai finished speaking, he sensed the sealing array in Hai Bodong's sea of ​​consciousness with his soul and gently shook it, knocking him unconscious.

He then led Hai Bodong to the back room of the shop, settled him on the bed, and sat down at a table nearby.

He took out a teapot from his storage ring, added water, and held it in his hand. A red light appeared, and the water boiled instantly. He then added tea leaves, and the whole room was filled with the aroma of tea.

Xiao Bai sat at the table, drinking tea and waiting for Hai Bodong to wake up.

As evening fell, Hai Bodong regained consciousness, but he lay motionless on the bed, like a corpse.

He was a little tired. Ever since he was sealed by Medusa more than 20 years ago, he had been working hard to restore the seal. Now he had found the method, but he was only missing one medicinal herb and a sixth-grade alchemist with a different kind of fire.

The reason he opened this map shop in Mocheng was because there had always been rumors of strange fire in the Tagor Desert. Making maps would allow him to understand the information about various parts of the desert and make it easier to find the strange fire.

If he can find the strange fire and give it to a sixth-grade alchemist to refine a sixth-grade pill—the Calamity-Breaking Pill—he can get rid of this damned seal.

But who knew that disaster would strike today? Some weirdo who appeared out of nowhere insisted on buying the map that he wouldn't sell. Hai Bodong is a person of importance; if he doesn't sell something, who would dare to forcibly take it?

So they took action, and the result was tragic!

Now that his fighting spirit is sealed, that's fine, but his soul is sealed. How can that be broken? He's been in the Jia Ma Empire for so many years, and this is the first time he's ever heard of a soul seal.

If he hadn't experienced it firsthand, he wouldn't have known such a thing existed. The Gama Empire would never have been able to find someone to break the soul seal.

Alas! Impulsiveness is the devil! I'm tired! Let's destroy it!

"Sir, you're awake!" a gentle and polite voice called out.

Hai Bodong didn't respond, looking utterly hopeless. He seemed to think, "Whatever, if you're so capable, just kill me."

Although he regretted it a little, Hai Bodong also had his own pride. At most, he would die, but he would never beg for mercy!

Xiao Bai didn't care that he didn't respond. To be honest, if they were in each other's shoes, Xiao Bai might have been even crazier than him.

Just think about it, the battle qi seal hasn't been resolved yet, and now there's a soul seal too. Who could stand that?

"Sir, there's no need to worry about the soul seal. I didn't mean to target you; I just noticed your temper is a bit short, so I resorted to this tactic. Once you've calmed down, I'll release it for you!"

Upon hearing this, Hai Bodong's eyes flickered slightly, showing a reaction, but he remained silent.

He didn't believe there was such a good thing; this guy must have some conditions. He'd listen to them first.
