Battle Through the Heavens: The Soul Emperor's Only Daughter, I Am the Young Master of the Soul

Chapter 16 The Newborn Void Devouring Flame

Hun Qing rolled his eyes rather inelegantly. "A soul tablet must be activated with blood and then integrated into the soul. You don't even have a physical body, so where would you get the blood to activate your soul tablet?"

The medicine made me numb...

He felt he was being treated differently.

It's not his fault that he doesn't have a physical body, so why discriminate against him?

Xiao Yan had already activated the Soul Tablet with his blood, and the contract was complete. The Soul Tablet immediately transformed into a purple ray of light and entered Xiao Yan's forehead, leaving a thin, long, blood-red mark between his eyebrows.

Xiao Yan could see that deep within his soul, there was a purple jade tablet faintly emitting a ghostly light.

Strangely enough, with this jade pendant, he actually felt his soul power increase!

"This soul tablet... can actually enhance the soul!" Xiao Yan exclaimed in surprise.

Yao Chen: "?!?!"

What? It can actually enhance soul power? It's a pity that someone with his soul can't use it!

Hun Qinghao snorted, pouting proudly, "Ordinary soul tablets naturally won't have this effect. The soul tablet I gave you was personally crafted by my father!"

Specially assigned to the Black Lotus Guards, how could they possibly be such low-grade goods?

"And these too: Soul Lamp, Soul Lock, Soul Scythe, the Soul Palace Guardian's three-piece set." Ignoring Xiao Yan and Yao Chen's shock, Hun Qinghao took out the three basic pieces of equipment for the Soul Palace Guardian.

Her Black Lotus Guards were also equipped with these items; the ones she had were the leftovers, and they were all of superior quality.

Xiao Yan looked at the three contrasting items in front of him: a purple chain, a purple lamp, and a huge black scythe with purple patterns.

He asked, "I know about the Soul Chains, but what are the Soul Lamps and Soul Scythes for?"

"The Soul Chains capture souls, the Soul Lamps store souls, and the Soul Scythe is an offensive weapon, but the Soul Chains can also be used for attacks," Soul Master explained one by one.

Xiao Yan wrapped the soul lock around his wrist, slung the scythe over his shoulder, and mimicked Hun Qinghao's laughter, "Hehehe..."

Hun Qing's eyes lit up immediately upon seeing this.

To be honest, Xiao Yan's appearance is quite similar to those protectors of the Soul Palace; all that's missing is a black robe.

Patting Xiao Yan on the shoulder, Hun Qing nodded with a smile, "Young man, you have a bright future!"

"Junior sister, what about the Heavenly Rank cultivation technique and the Strange Flame?" Xiao Yan chuckled and asked Hun Qinghao for them, as these were the two things he cared about and wanted the most.

Hun Qinghao glared at her with her beautiful eyes, "What's your hurry? I promised you, would I go back on my word!"

"Here you go, the Heavenly Rank cultivation technique, Soul-Seizing Technique." Hun Qinghao waved her hand and tossed Xiao Yan a purple jade scroll. "This is the highest-level cultivation technique of my Hun Clan. It is divided into nine levels, each of which comes with a combat skill of the same level. What I'm giving you are the first two levels: the first level is the introductory level, and the second level is Soul-Seizing Technique."

Seeing that the scroll did not glow when it approached Xiao Yan, Hun Qinghao said with slight regret, "Unfortunately, with your current soul power, you are not strong enough to open the scroll of the cultivation technique!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan instantly felt as if he had been doused with cold water. His burning passion instantly turned to ice, and he asked dejectedly, "Then when can I start cultivating?"

It's not pleasant to have a mountain of treasures but not be able to use them.

"When the scroll lights up, you'll be able to start learning. Remember to use your soul token to unlock it then."

As the supreme cultivation technique of the Soul Clan, in order to prevent the technique from being leaked, the successive patriarchs of the Soul Clan naturally placed many shackles on it. Only those with Soul Clan bloodline and Soul Tablets can unlock these shackles.

"I understand." Xiao Yan nodded and put the cultivation scroll and the three-piece set of Soul Palace Guardian into his storage ring.

"As for strange fire, I do have one here." With that, Hun Qinghao took out a small black flame from the Soul-Locking Bracelet on her left wrist.

"Born from nothingness, formless and intangible, this is... the Devouring Flame of Nothingness!"

Looking at the small black flame, Yao Chen couldn't help but widen his eyes, recognizing at a glance that it was the Void Devouring Flame, ranked second on the Strange Flame Ranking.

However, he sensed something was wrong, frowned and shook his head, "No, this is not the real Void Devouring Flame. As the second ranked flame on the Strange Flame Ranking, the Void Devouring Flame should not have such a weak aura."

"Little Qing'er, this is the sub-flame of the Void Devouring Flame, isn't it?" Yao Chen affirmed.

Hun Qinghao nodded first, then shook his head, and said with a smile, "It used to be Zi Huo, but it's not anymore."

This was originally the Void Devouring Flame Sub-Flame on her father's body. After she gave her World-Destroying Black Flame Sub-Flame to him, this Void Devouring Flame Sub-Flame naturally became hers.

"This little flame, after being scorched by my world-destroying black flame, is now completely separated from the Void Devouring Flame and is a newly born small flame of the Void Devouring Flame."

Because of this, for a while, that guy Void Devouring Flame looked at her with disdain.

Upon hearing that it was the newly born Void Devouring Flame, Yao Chen looked at the small flame in Hun Qinghao's hand with great envy. When he caught sight of Xiao Yan's burning gaze beside him, he couldn't help but sigh softly and shake his head in disappointment.

This is a strange fire given to Xiao Yan by the little girl. Why should he go and join in the fun? Besides, in his current condition, he is unable to refine a new strange fire.

"Xiao Yan, although the Void Devouring Flame is ranked second on the Strange Flame Ranking, it is only a newly formed Void Devouring Flame, and its power is not very strong yet. You still have a great chance of absorbing it," Yao Chen said softly.

Hun Qing nodded in agreement, "He's right. This newly formed Void Devouring Flame has been completely subdued by my World-Destroying Black Flame. It's very obedient, so you'll definitely have no problem absorbing it."

"Void Devouring Flame..." Xiao Yan murmured softly, his dark eyes fixed on the small, constantly churning black flame.

The little witch gave him the second-ranked strange fire on the Strange Fire Ranking, and he didn't know how to repay her.

Xiao Yan is someone who always repays kindness. Although he is unable to repay Hun Qing's kindness now, he will keep the favor she did for him firmly in his heart.

The Soul Clan, the Soul Palace... Xiao Yan will remember them forever!

"Here you go, absorb it when you have time." Hun Qinghao put the Small Void Devouring Flame into a black jade bottle and handed it to Xiao Yan.

Hehe, the Yan Emperor training plan has officially started. From now on, Xiao Yan will only be the Yan Emperor of her Soul Clan. She wants to celebrate in advance that the Soul Clan has gained another great general!

How should we celebrate?

Why not go to the market in Wutan City and browse around, maybe find some interesting storybooks to bring back? I've already finished reading all the ones I had before.

Hun Qinghao tapped her cheek with her index finger and thought for a moment before deciding on the way to celebrate. She stood with her hands behind her back, in a good mood.

"Xiao Yan, accompany me for a stroll later. I've been in the Xiao family for so long, and I've never been out before."

"No problem, I'm going out anyway." Xiao Yan looked at the pretty girl who was already sitting in the tree and readily agreed.

"Oh right, old man Yao, don't you have a fire-attribute cultivation technique called something like the Burning Technique? It would be perfect for Xiao Yan." Hun Qinghao suddenly remembered this important matter; she couldn't let the Soul Clan's Flame Emperor she wanted be lost because of this.

Upon hearing this, Yao Chen fell silent, his expression somewhat complicated.

Originally, he chose Xiao Yan because he wanted him to cultivate the Burning Technique to rebuild his body. However, due to a twist of fate, the Bone Flame Ring ended up in the hands of Hun Qinghao. She had already agreed to let the Hun Clan alchemists refine his body, so he naturally forgot about the Burning Technique, which had an extremely high risk factor and a very low success rate.

Unexpectedly, this girl suddenly brought it up and even asked Xiao Yan to cultivate.
