Chapter 514: Exorcism
"Chi!"
After the Demon Soul escaped, Zhao Letian immediately opened his eyes and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his face pale and showing some pain.
The power burst out by the Demon Soul at the end was extraordinary, damaging his Divine Soul.
However, this degree of injury was still bearable for him, and after a bit of recovery, he would be healed.
"Kid, even if I don't take your physical body today, I will still kill you!"
The strands of Demon Soul gathered back together, appearing much smaller than before, ferociously shouting and charging towards Meng Yi.
The Demon Soul wanted to return to Meng Yi's body, then use a thunderous method to directly kill Zhao Letian.
"Hmph! My physical body is not something that a mere demon like you can touch? Get lost!"
However, at this moment, Meng Yi suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils bursting with golden light, and a cold shout accompanied by the virtual shadow of a Golden Flood Dragon came from his mouth. He swung his hand, directly forming a huge golden dragon claw in mid-air, viciously grabbing at the approaching Demon Soul.
"Flood Dragon Clan?"
The Demon Soul exclaimed in surprise, quickly fleeing to a distance.
The Flood Dragon Clan, as one of the noble clans within the Demon Clan, possessed very strong strength, enough to confront a demon of the same rank head-on. Naturally, the Demon Soul dared not be careless.
However, the huge illusory dragon claw seemed to emit a strange power, making it feel like sinking into a marsh, and its speed suddenly decreased significantly.
"Boom!"
The next moment, the golden dragon claw slammed down, directly smashing the Demon Soul into smithereens, bursting open.
"The power of Axiom? You are a Monarch Level Flood Dragon!"
The Demon Soul's life force was remarkably tenacious, it did not fall right there, but the scattered strands of Demon Soul quickly regrouped in the distance, speaking in both shock and anger, their tone filled with deep fear.
It could sense that the Golden Flood Dragon might not just be an ordinary Monarch Level Expert, but rather at the top among Monarch Level Experts; even at its peak, it probably couldn't contend against the Golden Flood Dragon.
"Since you know who I am, why not scram!"
The Golden Flood Dragon exhibited a proud look, coldly speaking.
It also knew that the life force of the Demon Clan was very tenacious, and with his current strength, it was difficult to kill the opponent, hence he didn't want to waste any time with this Demon Soul.
"Hmph! Mountains don't turn, rivers turn; we shall see, just wait for the day when the Demon Lord breaks the seal, all of you will die!"
The Demon Soul coldly huffed, then immediately turned into a black stream of light, escaping far away.
"Demon Lord?"
Zhao Letian's gaze sharpened, it looked like there were bigger dangers waiting for him in this Small World.
"Kid, are you alright?"
After confirming that the Demon Soul had gone far, the Golden Flood Dragon frowned and looked at Zhao Letian, asking in a serious tone.
"I'm fine, I won't die, hand over those things!"
Zhao Letian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, took out a bottle of Healing Pills, swallowed a few, looked at the Golden Flood Dragon with a smirk and said.
"What things?"
A strange gleam flashed in the eyes of the Golden Flood Dragon.
"Don't forget, I am now your master, you can't hide your thoughts from me, and you very well know, what I'm talking about are the treasures taken by the Demon Soul from other Martial Artists!"
Zhao Letian shook his head with a smile.
He knew that the Demon Soul not only devoured the Divine Souls of other Martial Artists but also took the treasures from those Martial Artists.
That is to say, the entire wealth of those more than twenty geniuses, along with the task items they found in the Imperial Secret Realm, were all entrusted to Meng Yi.
If he could get his hands on these things, Zhao Letian would definitely rank among the top in this expedition to the Imperial Secret Realm, perhaps even taking first place!
However, he had just sensed that the Golden Flood Dragon phantom intended to secretly keep these items, which he naturally would not agree to.
"Pfft, just some trash, I don't even care about it, here, take it!"
The Golden Flood Dragon phantom disdainfully said, tossing all the storage rings to Zhao Letian.
He also knew that such matters could not be hidden from Zhao Letian, and instead of making things difficult for himself, it was better to hand them over willingly.
Yet, he was currently very weak and urgently needed a vast amount of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to restore his strength; naturally, keeping these items would have been preferable, hence, he was quite pained when handing them over.
"Rest assured, once we get out, I will definitely find a way to help you recover your strength. But in this Small World, the power of all outsiders cannot exceed the True Martial Realm, so even if you kept these Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, they would be of no use!"
Zhao Letian put away the items, smiling very satisfied.
He briefly checked the contents of the storage rings, and they were more valuable than he had anticipated.
Especially since there was also information known to people of other Dynasties, thus, even if he did not ally with Shi Tao and others, he could still know more information.
"Oh? Not surpass the True Martial Realm? Is this the Small World called the Imperial Secret Realm you mentioned? It seems quite exceptional; this world is very stable, indicating that its master must be a very powerful Emperor Wu. However, since this place sealed the Demon Clan, it means that this world was also involved in the Ancient War between humans and demons, and this Emperor Wu has likely already perished!"
The Golden Flood Dragon phantom looked around the world and said with gravity.
"The War between Humans and Demons? Is it the war recorded in the classics, the war against the invasion of the Demon Clan?"
Zhao Letian's expression became stern.
"Yes, precisely that war. If it were not for me being severely injured in that battle, your ancestors from the Ye Family wouldn't have had the chance to take advantage of and seize my bloodline!"
The Golden Flood Dragon phantom nodded, looking very gloomy.
"So that's how it is, then do you know why outsiders can't use power beyond the True Martial Realm in this world?"
Zhao Letian pondered for a moment, then asked curiously.
"It's because of the Power of Laws! The Emperor Wu of this world left a force of laws here, and unless there is a being stronger than him, no one can defy this force of laws. But beings stronger than him probably can't enter; if they forcefully entered, this world would collapse on its own!"
The Golden Flood Dragon phantom analyzed seriously.
"The Power of Laws?"
Zhao Letian looked up at the sky, eyes filled with reverence.
Laws are a power that only Emperor Wu can comprehend, immensely powerful, possessing the Power of Laws means one can create their own Small World.
However, this power was still far beyond him.
"Don't be envious; with your talent and my guidance, one day, you will surely step into the realm of Emperor Wu!"
The Golden Flood Dragon phantom chuckled lightly, speaking confidently.
"Hopefully, here, take these things!"
Zhao Letian said with a casual smile, taking out a storage ring and tossing it to the Golden Flood Dragon phantom.
This storage ring held items such as High Grade Essence Stones and Spiritual Artifact and Elixir, sufficient to satisfy the cultivation needs of the Golden Flood Dragon phantom for a long period of time.
"Heh heh, you lad still have some conscience, not in vain have I protected you for so long!"
The Golden Flood Dragon phantom looked at the contents of the storage ring, grinning broadly, very satisfied.
Zhao Letian was very generous, providing more than he had anticipated.
