Battle Through the Heavens: The Inner Struggle of Cultivation Brings Xiao Yan to Tears

Chapter 411 Independent Space in the Void

The reason why Venerable Fire Eclipse and Venerable Blood River knew the whereabouts of Xiao Yang and the others was simple: the Soul Palace had been keeping an eye on Xiao Yang.

In fact, the Soul Palace is aware of all eighth-grade alchemists on the continent.

After Xiao Yang was certified as an eighth-grade alchemist by the Pill Tower, he attracted the attention of the Soul Palace.

With the Soul Palace's capabilities, it would be very easy for them to plant some pawns in the Pill Tower.

However, Saint Pill City is, after all, the headquarters of the Pill Tower, and there are also Dou Sheng powerhouses in the Lesser Pill Tower.

The Old Ancestor of the Pill Tower was himself a being above the Five-Star Dou Sheng level.

In addition, the Soul Clan does not want to expose their plans for the time being.

Therefore, the Soul Palace did not dare to take action in the Pill Tower, and completely break ties with the Pill Tower.

As a force composed of a large number of alchemists, the Pill Tower has a wide network of connections.

Even the Soul Palace doesn't want to face the Pill Tower.

However, once they leave the Pill Tower, especially the Central Region, the Soul Palace will definitely try to find an opportunity to take action.

The Soul Palace learned of Xiao Yang's departure from Saint Pill City as soon as he left.

Because he travels through fixed spatial passages, it's easy to guess where he'll end up.

Venerable Fire Eclipse and Venerable Blood River were already waiting for them in Nan Yan City.

Because even the demigods of the Soul Palace cannot easily be mobilized.

Once they make their move, other factions might find out.

Danta knew that the Soul Palace had been secretly capturing the souls of alchemists, so he had also been keeping an eye on the Soul Palace's experts.

Therefore, the Soul Palace could only send one person in charge outside the Soul Realm, namely the Venerable Fire Erosion, to take action.

With the addition of Blood River Venerable, their combined strength is sufficient.

The Blood River Venerable is actually one of the Four Heavenly Venerables of the Soul Palace.

Above him are only three Celestial Venerables and two Palace Masters (both principal and deputy).

There is also a Soul-Cleansing Saint, who is a Battle Saint.

The other party is actually also a member of the Soul Clan.

Among those above the Blood River Venerable, even the Three Heavenly Venerables are themselves half-saint level experts.

So they simply let Venerable Fire Erosion take action.

He is the most suitable person to make the move.

After all, a first-level Dou Zun can easily defeat a nine-star Dou Zun, let alone a fourth-level Dou Zun.

In Zhongzhou, high-level Dou Zun are already extremely rare.

As one of the Soul Clan's public leaders in Zhongzhou, Venerable Fiery Erosion possesses a wisp of Void Devouring Flame.

After Blood River Venerable finished speaking, Xiao Yang interrogated Fire Erosion Venerable separately.

The two gave the same account.

In fact, Xiao Yang also knew that Venerable Blood River was not lying.

He just wanted to find out the locations of a few more Heavenly Gang Halls and Earthly Fiend Halls.

Unfortunately, even Venerable Fire Erosion did not know the locations of all the Soul Palace branch halls.

The Heavenly Gang Hall is divided into three sections: Heaven, Earth, and Humanity.

Even the Human Palace is managed by the Great Celestial Venerable and the Second Celestial Venerable.

The two only knew the locations of the four Earthly Fiend Palaces.

Xiao Yang secretly memorized the locations of the four Earthly Fiend Halls.

He plans to find some time, once his strength has improved a bit more, to go and rob these four Earthly Fiend Halls!

He's not the kind of person who likes to suffer in silence.

Since the Soul Palace has already set its sights on him.

He definitely needs to make a good impression.

The Soul Hall is divided into the Heavenly Gang Hall, the Earthly Fiend Hall, and ordinary branch halls.

The Heavenly Hall has three separate halls: Heaven, Earth, and Humanity, each containing a large amount of the essence of souls.

The three Heavenly Halls contain the most primordial soul essence.

Even if a Heavenly Realm soul were to devour it, it would still gain a tremendous boost.

Below the three Heavenly General Halls are the twenty-four Earthly Fiend Halls.

The master and deputy master of the Earthly Fiends Hall are both respected elders.

The Earthly Fiend Hall also contains a considerable amount of soul essence, which can be of significant use to souls in the Heavenly Realm.

These twenty-seven important branch halls are all located in Zhongzhou.

Ordinary branch halls are scattered throughout the entire Dou Qi Continent.

There are several even in remote places like the Northwest Continent.

For the Soul Clan, every Earthly Fiend Palace is extremely important.

Xiao Yang plans to visit the Earthly Fiend Palace later and do some good deeds.

But not now.

He was afraid that the Soul Clan might actually send a Battle Saint to capture him.

That would be a bit troublesome.

As for how to deal with Venerable Fire Erosion and Venerable Blood River, Xiao Yang did not intend to kill them immediately.

Once they die, the Soul Palace will definitely notice.

However, we can't let them have it easy either.

During the interrogation just now, Venerable Fire Erosion even tried to ambush Xiao Yang with his natal soul lock.

The Soul Lock is the Soul Palace's desperate move.

After using it, Venerable Fire Erosion's soul was also severely injured.

However, it was of little use to Xiao Yang.

He easily defused the situation.

He directly used the Eight Desolate Annihilation Flame to annihilate the opponent's innate soul lock.

Xiao Yang planned to use the souls of both of them to create puppets.

Fortunately, they were both still alive.

If two peak Dou Zun experts were to be refined into puppets, the puppets would certainly be formidable.

Moreover, Xiao Yang not only planned to use their bodies and souls, but he also wanted to add other things.

For example... a ninth-tier magic core!

Xiao Yang has now accumulated quite a few ninth-tier magic cores.

These ninth-tier magic cores are currently of little use to him.

Even if Ziyan were to eat it, she wouldn't be able to digest it.

Since that's the case, why not use it to refine puppets and increase the power around me?

In addition, Xiao Yang also planned to wait until the Earth Serpent in his Monster Ranch space reached the ninth rank before refining its essence blood to create puppets.

In that case, he estimated that the puppet's strength could reach that of a half-saint!

He might even reach the level of a Battle Saint!

Xiao Yang was really looking forward to it.

After all, the magic cores rewarded by the system are all of top quality.

The monsters in the Monster Ranch space, though a bit dim-witted, don't have much combat power.

But their materials are genuine!

Its quality even surpasses some ordinary monsters of the same level!

Xiao Yang arrived at the corpses of Venerable Fire Erosion and Venerable Blood River.

His fighting spirit transformed into ice-attribute fighting spirit.

Then, Xiao Yang's fighting spirit erupted from his body, and the two corpses turned into ice sculptures.

If the corpse is well preserved, the puppets made from it will also be better.

After collecting the two corpses, Xiao Yang left the Strange Fire Tower.

Xiao Yang directly let his soul control the void ship, while his physical body would occasionally cultivate together with Little Fairy Doctor and Medusa.

During cultivation, Xiao Yang would also discuss various issues with Little Fairy Doctor and Medusa.

For example, when did the completed tunnel open to traffic?

How often should the tunnel be opened to traffic during this period?

How should we address the water-related issues encountered during the opening of the road?

In winter, if heavy snow closes the roads for seven days, is it possible to take the back roads?

Will there be any damage if a vehicle is turned on without being preheated?

How should we handle the situation if we are excavating two tunnels at the same time?

Should the weeds around the tunnel be regularly removed?

Xiao Yang also tested whether the car music would stop when the key was suddenly pulled out while the vehicle was traveling at high speed.
