Chapter 2342: Chapter 2348: Good Eye

"I didn’t react at first either."

Xiao Yi said helplessly, "I told you, I only found the Ancient Divine Weapon List later in an ancient archive of the Eight Palaces."

"If it weren’t for the battle in the Ancient Emperor’s Tomb where I saw Lingg Hong and them using the Glazed Illusion Shield, I wouldn’t have remembered it."

Qing Lin said in astonishment, "The Glazed Illusion Shield is reputed to defend against all attacks under heaven."

"Originally, it is the Supreme Treasure of Water Light Mansion, known throughout the Central Region."

"Only now do I learn it’s an Ancient Treasure, and it ranks third."

Xiao Yi shook his head, "The Glazed Illusion Shield is not just about strong defense."

"To be ranked third on the Ancient Divine Weapon List, it is extraordinary, even mysterious."

"I start to grasp why Shui Ninghan has such enigmatic methods."

"Young as she is, she can completely wield the Glazed Illusion Shield, such skill, I must admire."

At least, Xiao Yi himself still couldn’t fully master the Dawn Bell.

"Does the Palace Master have a grudge against Shui Ninghan?" Xia Yiming coldly asked.

"Yiming can go kill her."

Xiao Yi shook his head, "It’s not really a grudge. People don’t wrong me, I don’t wrong people—it doesn’t matter."

Qing Lin pursued, "Then what about the one ranked first?"

"Even Luoo Venerable’s Dawn Bell is ranked second; the one ranked first must be extraordinary in some way."

Xiao Yi smiled, "To be precise, it is the Ancient Emperor’s Dawn Bell."

"As for first place..."

Xiao Yi furrowed his brow, "I don’t know either."

"You don’t know?" Qing Lin asked in surprise.

"Mm." Xiao Yi nodded, "Anyway, the manual didn’t have a name or any description."

"Only one sentence."

"It can be a person, a thing, or a demon; it can be a Dao, a saint, or a god."

"I interpret it as anything having potential existence."

"Alas, curiosity in vain." Qing Lin pouted.

Next to him, Ran Qi complained, "Qing Lin, don’t interrupt, I haven’t finished asking my question."

With that, Ran Qi looked at Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi smiled, "Do you have any other doubts?"

"Your Mad Dragon Cloud Piercing Spear is powerful itself; the Thunder Beast is even stronger."

"Having both, and the perfect match, it’s terrifyingly strong."

"In the past, your Soul within Soul’s true form couldn’t be seen clearly; now it’s fully awakened, making a perfect fusion and explosion, naturally allowing you to break through into the Saint Sovereign Realm, and at the First Layer Peak."

"I know." Ran Qi nodded, "What I’m asking is, are you sure the Thunder Beast looks like this?"

As he spoke, a light condensed in Ran Qi’s hand.

The Mad Dragon Cloud Piercing Spear coalesced in an instant.

Along with it, an ocean of thunder and lightning, where a formidable thunder beast loomed.

Qing Lin scratched his head, "Wait, why does this demon beast only have one head?"

Ran Qi’s face twitched, "How would I know."

Xiao Yi frowned as he observed.

Back in Dongli Sword Palace, it was just a glimpse—I couldn’t see clearly what was inside the Thunder Ocean. Not even its appearance could be discerned.

But back then, Xiao Yi vaguely guessed it was one of the Ten Beasts of Great Wilderness, the Thunder Beast, and judging from the aura, it was unmistakable.

And now, you can see the form of the demon beast in the Thunder Ocean, but why only one head? No body or anything else exists.

Xiao Yi’s expression revealed a hint of surprise, "This proves your Soul within Soul hasn’t fully awakened yet."

"But you already possess the ability to wield it."

"Just the awakening of one head allows you to achieve a breakthrough comparable to one of the Ten Beasts of Great Wilderness fully awakening."

"What kind of demon beast is this?" Ran Qi pursued further.

Qing Lin pouted, "No way, shouldn’t there be at least more than just one head?"

"Not necessarily." Xiao Yi shook his head, "You must know that lightning is ethereal and can transform endlessly."

"The fact that only one head can be formed now indicates that your cultivation hasn’t reached the level where the Martial Soul can be fully materialized."

"However, just the head of this demon beast is already formidable, and the complete form must be a giant beast."

Ran Qi continued asking, "What kind of demon beast is it then?"

Xiao Yi shook his head, "I don’t know either, I’ve never seen it."

"Although I am a Demon Hunter, I dare not claim to know every kind of demon beast under heaven, especially those ancient and bizarre existences."

"This..." Ran Qi furrowed his brows, clearly troubled by his confusion as a Martial Arts Fool.

"Don’t rush." Xiao Yi chuckled, "The fact that your cultivation has soared proves your Soul within Soul has indeed awakened."

"This is undoubted."

"It’s just that your current cultivation realm hasn’t reached the required level yet."

"I don’t understand." Ran Qi shook his head.

Xiao Yi explained, "Your Soul within Soul revealed itself due to the second awakening of your Martial Soul."

"Do you remember when you thought your second awakening was complete during the battle at Dongli Sword Palace, only to discover the existence of Soul within Soul?"

"That showed the second awakening was not truly complete."

"Now, you’ve broken through to the Supreme Realm and entered the Saint Sovereign Realm, thinking it’s complete."

"In reality, it’s not yet complete."

Ran Qi furrowed his brow, "But where does the growth in my Martial Soul Power come from?"

Xiao Yi asked, "What Martial Arts Saint Pill did you use?"

Ran Qi answered, "I’m the strongest monster in Heavenly Spear Mansion’s history, and I used the Martial Arts Saint Pill left by the first ancestor of the Ran Family."

"Oh?" Xiao Yi said in surprise, "The one who founded Heavenly Spear Mansion and left the Heavenly Spear Relics in the dangerous terrain?"

Ran Qi nodded.

Xiao Yi chuckled, "Then you can rest assured. The Martial Arts Saint Pill’s power from him, your Martial Soul surely hasn’t fully absorbed yet."

"When your cultivation surges again, increasing your realm greatly, the Soul within Soul should fully solidify accordingly."

"That’s good." Ran Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Otherwise, later when I condense one single head for battle, that would be too ridiculous."

Ran Qi laughed and happily picked up his tea cup and drank heartily.

"What about me then?" Qing Lin looked at Xiao Yi, smiling proudly, "I have no doubts."

"But I want to see Xiao Yi’s insight."

"How did I break through?"

"Simple." Xiao Yi chuckled, "Green Flood Dragon Core."

"Also, I’ve seen your battles; your cultivation breakthrough, I should have anticipated it, but your terrifying combat power was beyond what I expected."

"Just now I thought it through and understood."

"The reason lies in the Blood Cloud Core from Senior Cloud Abyss and Senior Wu Shi, doesn’t it?"

"Combining the world’s strongest defensive Sword Dao with the strongest offensive Sword Dao, your combat strength is far greater than I originally expected."

"Hehe." Qing Lin smiled fiercely, nodding, "Good eyes, yes, very good."

"Is it really that great?" Ran Qi pouted.

Qing Lin patted Ran Qi on the shoulder, laughing, "Some people, right, have limited vision, are ignorant, and have low horizons."

"Come on, Junior Brother Xiao Yi, you tell him."

Xiao Yi chuckled, "Should I be honest?"

"Of course." Qing Lin said proudly.
