Liu Xun shook his head and said, "This can be called the Soul Eater, or it can be called not, because it is just a drop of blood left by the Soul Eater, but this drop of blood has undergone a mutation. Now it is probably not much different from the legendary Soul Eater."
Jian Wuming walked to the front of the black feather, stroked the feather, and said: "The Soul Eater is a species from the prehistoric times. Although its combat power is not as strong as Kunpeng and some demon saints, its magical powers are extremely strange! In the prehistoric times, there was a saying that when the Soul Eater appeared, the world would be in chaos. Now the combat power of the general creatures cannot be compared with that of the prehistoric times. This is a catastrophe."
Liu Xun nodded upon hearing this but said nothing. Twelve years ago, when Qilin Ci left, he told him that the Soul Eater would appear in about ten years, and that would be Liu Xun's only chance to advance to the Devouring Divine Power.
But he didn't know whether Soul Eater appeared ten years later or not, because he was still trapped in the Tomb of the Supreme. But just now when he was drinking, Liu Xun felt a sense of resonance in his heart. This feeling was so clear, as if Soul Eater was telling himself, I am Soul Eater, here I come!
But what puzzled Liu Xun was that since Soul Eater had summoned him, why didn't it meet him? According to his speculation, its current combat power should be comparable to that of a quasi-supreme being, so why would it avoid him
After pondering for a moment, Liu Xun finally had a firm look in his eyes, and said to Jian Wuming: "Brother Jian, I'll leave the battle for the crown prince to you for now. I have something else to do, and after I finish this, I will definitely go to the Central Region to meet Brother Jian! By then, I will not leave until I'm drunk with Brother Jian."
Jian Wuming heard this and nodded, but did not ask Liu Xun what he was going to do, because everyone has their own secrets and privacy. With a smile, Jian Wuming turned around and said, "Go ahead. As long as I am here in the King's Battle, the foreign land will not be able to succeed."
The strong all have an invincible heart, and Liu Xun and Jian Wuming are examples. They both believe that they are invincible. Even if the Supreme is present, they dare to fight! This is a kind of belief, and it is also a heart of Tao to become the strongest.
After bidding farewell to Jian Wuming, Liu Xun sensed the traces left by the Soul Eater and chased after him. About seven breaths after he left, Di Yi and others also caught up with him. When they saw that only Jian Wuming was there, they all looked puzzled.
"Let's go back. The battle to become the king will be held tomorrow." Jian Wuming glanced at everyone and then turned into a streak of light and disappeared into the sky.
All the energy in Liu Xun's body left his body and changed the space again and again. Each time the space was changed was a hundred miles away. Fortunately, he had the power of dragon veins in his body, otherwise no one could withstand this kind of consumption.
It was already dark at this time. Liu Xun landed silently on a giant tree in the forest. With colorful divine light in his eyes, he scanned the surroundings for every move, because he was sure that the Soul Eater was here.
"Swish!..." A bright light flashed in the darkness, just like a sickle swung from the netherworld of hell, slashing towards Liu Xun's forehead. Liu Xun narrowed his eyes slightly, and the first step of the Nine Steps of Haoshen was "unable" to be taken instantly.
"Boom!..." The originally silent collision was followed by a loud noise. Endless energy from the heaven and earth rose up violently and rushed into the sky, causing the heaven and earth to shake continuously and countless giant trees to be uprooted.
Although it was dark now, the bright light in the sky was as dazzling as the sun. Liu Xun looked down in the light and his face suddenly changed.
Below him was a strange beast that was about twenty meters tall. It looked like a bird, with a pair of wings, but had a human head. It exuded a gloomy aura, and its two blood-red eyes were staring at him. Just from looking at him, Liu Xun felt a palpitation.
"Soul Eater!" With his eyes slightly narrowed, Liu Xun knew that it must be the Soul Eater, otherwise he would not have been so shaken by just looking at it. Although the Soul Eater's head was a human head, its eyes were not like human eyes at all. They were like the eerie light in the netherworld of hell, making people feel unnaturally palpitating.
"Are you the Soul Eater?" Liu Xun asked with his hands behind his back and a frown on his face. The Soul Eater in front of him gave Liu Xun a very strange feeling, which made him quite afraid.
After the words fell, Soul Eater still just looked at Liu Xun, and his consciousness did not reply. Seeing this, Liu Xun took a step forward and said: "I came here this time just to borrow a few drops of your blood. I will remember your kindness in the future."
The Soul Eater's cultivation fluctuations were no worse than Liu Xun's, and he was even stronger than Liu Xun, so Liu Xun directly gave up the idea of devouring him and decided to negotiate instead. However, just as he finished speaking, something he could not have imagined happened.
"Okay, I can keep providing you with blood essence until your magical powers advance, but you have to promise me one thing." The Soul Eater's lips moved slightly, and a trace of negative energy suddenly rose around them, and the sky was covered with dark clouds.
"... "Obviously, he had not expected that the Soul Eater could actually speak, and he had not expected that the Soul Eater would agree to his conditions. After being stunned for a moment, Liu Xun frowned again. If the Soul Eater agreed in such a painful way, then the thing it asked him to do must not be simple.
"You said, as long as I can do it, I will definitely agree." After thinking for a moment, Liu Xun decided to listen to what it was about first.
Upon hearing this, Soul Eater's blood-red eyes flashed with excitement, and the creepy words came out again: "Give me half of the dragon vein power in your body!"
As soon as the words fell, Liu Xun's face suddenly changed. What a joke, there is the combined power of ninety-eight dragon veins in his body. Half of it would be the power of forty-nine dragon veins. This guy has a really big appetite.
"You can actually sense that I have the power of dragon veins in my body?" Compared to the Soul Eater's huge appetite, Liu Xun was curious about how it knew that he had the power of dragon veins in his body.
"Don't worry about it. If you give me the power of the dragon vein, I will sign a heaven and earth contract with you. Then you and I will both get what we want. Isn't that the best of both worlds?" Soul Eater avoided Liu Xun's question and his voice sounded like thunder.
After thinking carefully for a moment, Liu Xun finally compromised. After all, the amount of dragon vein power was not important to him. The remaining half of the dragon vein power was enough for him to squander.
"You know I use your blood essence to upgrade my magical power, so why do you need the power of dragon veins? Finally, tell the truth, otherwise this deal is canceled! Of course, you can also force me to devour, but even if you can kill me and devour my soul, you will definitely not get a trace of dragon vein power. I think you know this better than anyone else, otherwise you would not be negotiating with me here."
Liu Xun's words rang out one by one, and each sentence was very compelling. Upon hearing this, Soul Eater immediately let out a wolf-like laugh and said, "I need the dragon vein because I am made of blood essence after all. Now I need the power of the dragon vein to dilute some impurities. When that happens, I will awaken the Soul Eater's magical power and become a complete Soul Eater." (To be continued)
