"Is that young man your friend?"
The man displayed his annoyance at Ling Ying's audacity to block him."No, but he is one of mine!"
Ling Ying launched an attack, engaging in a fierce battle with the man before her.On a different front, Yuan Bei’s every move spelled certain death for his opponents. His graceful movements weren’t a spectacle to admire but rather a source of terror as his strikes relentlessly aimed for his enemies’ vital points.
Moments later.
"Trying to kill someone as handsome as me? Cai Lin, they truly don’t know their limits..."
After swiftly dispatching twenty practitioners, Yuan Bei sat down to restore his depleted Qi energy.Five minutes passed.
Boom!
Ling Ying was suddenly thrown back, crashing into a large rock beside Yuan Bei, who was meditating to recover his Qi.Opening his eyes, Yuan Bei looked at Ling Ying’s battered and bruised body with a concerned expression.
"W-what's your name?"
"Yuan Bei..." he replied.
Before Yuan Bei could process the situation, five men, whose cultivation levels he couldn’t discern, appeared before them.
"Brother, this young man is strange... He managed to kill twenty of our troops who were two levels above him in cultivation."
"So it’s him?" one of the men raised an eyebrow, puzzled as he sensed nothing particularly special about Yuan Bei.
"Bei, run and seek help from the Information Tower in the nearest city. Use my name to ask for aid, and we might survive," Ling Ying said, handing him her identity token.
Taking the token, Yuan Bei planned to slip away quietly. However, a strand of Qi energy formed into ropes, binding his body. The five men had clearly noticed his intention to escape.
"Running away? Boy, you don’t have the ability for that!"
Seeing this, Ling Ying gritted her teeth. Left with no other choice, she used her last trump card to ensure their survival.
A blue jade appeared in her hand, which she then crushed.
Swoooosh!
Suddenly, the sky trembled violently, followed by the emergence of a sword-shaped energy from the void.The overwhelming Qi energy, emanating from a five-star Core Formation practitioner, caused the five men’s eyes to widen in shock.
"Damn it! Another trump card!"
They released Yuan Bei from the Qi ropes binding him and quickly conjured a combined Qi energy shield.
Swoooosh!
The sword energy shot rapidly toward the shield.Realizing the danger, Yuan Bei wasn’t foolish. He quickly grabbed the unconscious Ling Ying and fled, putting as much distance as possible between them and the five Core Formation practitioners.
Boom!
"Just in time..." Yuan Bei muttered, hearing the explosion behind him as he sensed the powerful energy fluctuations, hastening his steps further.Once outside the forest:
"Bei, bringing her along will only make it harder for you to hide from their pursuit," Cai Lin said, emerging from within Yuan Bei’s body.
"What do you mean?"
"She’s been hit by a soul-marking attack. No matter how far you run, your location will always be exposed as long as you’re with her."
"Do you have a solution?"
Cai Lin nodded and explained the advantages of Yuan Bei’s Dragon Heart Flame.
"However, you’ll need to remove her clothes... Given her stubborn personality, I fear..." Cai Lin paused.
Not wanting to leave the girl to die due to his negligence, Yuan Bei closed his eyes and followed Cai Lin's instructions step by step to remove the soul mark from Ling Ying’s smooth back.
Despite the situation, Yuan Bei wasn’t the type to take advantage. With unwavering determination, he focused solely on removing the soul mark.
Two hours later.
Swoooosh!
The blue energy on Ling Ying’s back dissipated. Drained of a significant amount of Qi, Yuan Bei began to restore his energy.Fifteen minutes later.
"When will she wake up?"
"Her internal injuries are severe. It might take three to five days for her to regain consciousness."
"That’s a long time. Instead of sitting idly, I’ll focus on absorbing the Ghost King’s soul crystal."
Taking the soul crystal out of his spatial ring, Yuan Bei activated the Sky Devouring Dragon technique to speed up the process.
Swoooosh!
His meridian sea churned violently, accompanied by muffled explosions within his body."Bang!"
'Foundation Stage, Star Rank Three!'Yet his meridians continued to churn as the Ghost King’s soul kept spiraling within him.
The comfort Yuan Bei initially felt soon turned into unbearable pain. His body felt as though thousands of needles were piercing his soul.
"Argh!"
His eyes bulged as the pain overwhelmed him, but Cai Lin’s voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
"Stay focused on absorbing it! If you falter, the Ghost King’s soul will lose its full potential!"
Understanding the consequences, Yuan Bei maintained his focus, enduring the agony as the days quickly passed.
Five days later.
"W-where am I?!"
Ling Ying woke up, feeling something amiss with her body, and screamed."You pervert!" she shouted at Yuan Bei, who was busy training. Her anger surged.
She believed Yuan Bei had taken advantage of her during her unconscious state.
"My purity, which I’ve guarded for so long, was stolen by someone else... Today, if I don’t kill you, you’ll be a disgrace to the Ling clan!"
Swoooosh!
Ling Ying charged at Yuan Bei, unleashing a palm strike toward him.At the same time, a surge of energy erupted as Qi energy barriers formed, accompanied by muffled explosions within Yuan Bei’s body.
Bang!
'Foundation Stage, Star Rank Five!'

"Miss Ling Ying, I, Yuan Bei, never intended to take advantage of you while you were unconscious," Yuan Bei said calmly."What proof do you have? Look at me—my clothes are gone!" she retorted, her tone filled with frustration.Letting out a long sigh, Yuan Bei, sensing movement around their hiding place, replied, "They’ve already found us... If you don’t get dressed quickly, I’m afraid they’ll be the ones taking advantage of you!""You...!" Ling Ying stammered, flustered and irritated.However, Yuan Bei wasn’t bluffing.

Bei, be cautious.""Ghostly aura? I can’t feel it... Could it be—""Because you’ve absorbed the soul of the Ghost King, no ghostly aura in this realm, no matter how strong, can affect you.

He had already put his clothes back on."Young man, what is your name?"Feeling wary since he didn’t recognize the middle-aged man standing before him, Yuan Bei stayed on guard. The man then began to introduce himself."I am Bai Chen, an elder of the Spirit Sword Sect... Now that I’ve introduced myself, how about you reveal your identity?""A Spirit Sword Sect elder?"

The Birth of the Last Divine Dragon Emperor 1. The Disaster of Death That Became a Blessing
"It’s impossible that I will die, right?" Yuan Bei tightly clenched his jaw, his face showing signs of fear as he fled from the pursuit of a fierce beast.Seeing the tiger’s steps getting closer, Yuan Bei, unable to do anything, chose to enter an ancient cave in front of him. But to his surprise, the tiger continued to follow him."I can't... There’s no way out," his body trembled as the sharp fangs of the tiger came into view before his eyes."Mom... Dad, Yuan Bei is truly unfilial, a worthless child like me has such a terrible fate... Please forgive me." Closing his eyes in resignation, the tiger leapt toward him.BAM!But strangely, Yuan Bei only felt his body being pushed and then crashing into something hard. When he opened his eyes again, his vision blurred, and black and golden smoke billowed from an ancient stone that had accidentally shattered upon striking Yuan Bei’s body.The tiger, wanting to toy with its prey, shook its body. As it prepared to pounce, an explosion of ener

"With the abilities left behind by others... I will surely rise and find out who killed my parents in the past..." Yuan Bei said with a firm vow. Suddenly, the Heart of the Dragon Flame spirit within his body muttered curses in its mind."Hahaha! With just you? Do whatever you want, I can only remind you that there are some wild beasts in this forest. But that’s not the problem, it's the Demon Beasts, from level one to three. I'm sleepy, and I’m going to sleep for a long time. I hope, when I wake up, I won't see you anymore."Hearing the mocking words directed at him, Yuan Bei began to study the techniques he could cultivate, using the knowledge left by the Dragon Emperor. Although he often heard insults like "stupid" and "can't cultivate," Yuan Bei was actually very intelligent. With his understanding, he started learning the basic knowledge about Qi energy."Soft and warm, that’s the nature of Qi energy!"Having sensed the Qi energy, Yuan Bei tried to absorb the Qi within the ancien

Hearing the words of the Fire Spirit, Yuan Bei, who was in the middle of his attack, momentarily lost focus."What did you just say? Weren’t you the one who wanted me to master the techniques left by others?!"Receiving no response from the Fire Spirit, Yuan Bei regained his focus to face the black-horned tiger before him. His flexible movements, perfectly timed strikes, and seamless tempo were mesmerizing, but the tiger did not feel admiration—it felt fear, knowing the flaming sword could pierce its body at any moment.Sriiing!The tiger’s claws clashed with the flaming sword, producing a sharp, piercing sound. Yuan Bei spun his body, rolling forward, and slashed at the tiger’s leap with precision.Slaaaash!Groaaaarh!The tiger roared in shock as its front legs were severed from its body. Its footing faltered, and it collapsed, letting out weak growls toward Yuan Bei.Slaaaaash!"Click, click, click! Your way of killing the tiger is quite brutal..." The Fire Spirit remarked to Yuan

"All of you on that eagle’s back, get down!"Swuuuuuuung!A circular formation suddenly appeared in the sky, as if it had been a trap meticulously set for them. The eagle that Ling Ying rode was bound by chains. Instantly, the eagle beneath Yuan Bei began to rebel, throwing all the cultivators, including Yuan Bei, off its back and plummeting toward the ground.Baaaam! Baaaaam!Struggling to steady himself, Yuan Bei noticed more than thirty practitioners at the Five-Star Foundation Establishment stage emerging from behind massive trees, led by a cultivator at the Two-Star Core Formation stage."Why can’t I see the cultivation stage of their leader?" Yuan Bei communicated with Cai Lin through his mind."The greater the gap in cultivation stages, the harder it is to perceive. The man you’re referring to has reached the Core Formation stage... Though it’s the early stage, it’s enough to kill a Foundation Establishment cultivator like you. Be careful…"Yuan Bei nodded, his gaze locking ont

“Why has my legacy been passed on to a worthless young man?” The Ghost King’s spirit looked visibly bewildered as it observed Yuan Bei’s cultivation domain.Hearing the scornful remark, Yuan Bei drew his sword, pointing it forward. Clearly, he wasn’t going to tolerate words that pierced his pride.“Worthless? I’ve merely been delayed in restoring the damage to my meridians… Senior, discard that word—worthless…” Yuan Bei’s eyes turned sharp and piercing.“You are worthless... If you are truly a genius, then learn one of my secret techniques. If, within a year, you fail to master it, I will be gravely disappointed. Why has heaven’s fate tied my legacy to someone as pathetic as you?”“Legacy?” Yuan Bei raised an eyebrow.“Hahahaha! What else were you expecting? To fight me? A single breath from me would kill you!”“Fine. Let’s begin with the technique you’re offering. I, Yuan Bei, refuse to accept the label of ‘worthless,’” Yuan Bei’s voice grew cold and resolute.The Ghost King smirked
4. The Soul Crystal of the Ghost King
"What do you mean by the Moon Palace? I've lived in Cenayang Village since I was a child. There's no way I could be from the place you're talking about, right?"Cai Lin paused momentarily before explaining. The Moon Palace was an incredibly mysterious place, known only to a select few."But your abilities are still too weak right now. I can't reveal its location yet... When the time comes, I will personally take you to the Moon Palace."Yuan Bei nodded in understanding and continued his journey. Before he knew it, he had arrived at the gates of Shang City just as the sky turned dark.Quickly entering the city, Yuan Bei headed straight for a tower known as the Tower of Information. Suddenly, a servant stopped him."Sir, is there something I can assist you with?""Could I request some minor information?"The servant nodded. "It depends on the complexity of the information you require, but naturally, we charge an appropriate price for our services."Yuan Bei clenched his fists tightly. H
