Soul Emperor Martial God

"Grand Master."

A group of burly mountain bandits exclaimed in surprise.

They wanted to rescue him, but hesitated at the edge of the Purple Flame Sea.

The terrifying high temperature, carrying a wave of destructive heat, caused everyone's expressions to change dramatically.

"Dammit, we've hit a tough nut." The Second Master stood in front of the Purple Flame Sea, his face extremely grim.

He was the only one who could approach the Purple Flame Sea at close range and remain unaffected.

The battle between Xiao Yi and Violent Wolf happened almost in an instant.

Originally, in the eyes of all the mountain bandits, their leader Violent Wolf dealing with a young kid was a simple task.

The battle at the start was as they had expected.

The Cold Flame Sword in Xiao Yi's hand was easily taken away.

But the next second, the battle reversed instantly, and the vast Purple Flame Sea trapped Violent Wolf in an instant.

The reversal of the battle happened so quickly that these mountain bandits hadn't reacted yet when painful cries of Violent Wolf echoed from the Fire Sea.

"Second Master, quickly rescue the Grand Master," a few burly mountain bandits cried out urgently from behind.

The Second Master solemnly shook his head.

"I can barely withstand this Fire Sea, but if I force my way in, I'll have to pay a certain price, at least ending up lightly injured."

"But if the Grand Master can't force his way out from that kid, even if I go in, it would be useless."

He could force his way into the Fire Sea.

But if Violent Wolf couldn't force his way out, it would prove that the opponent's strength far surpassed Violent Wolf's.

Even if he went in and joined forces with Violent Wolf, they would definitely not be a match.

"What should we do then?" Several burly mountain bandits looked anxious.

The Second Master looked serious, "For now, we can only rely on the Grand Master himself."

"If the Grand Master can force his way out, it proves that the kid's strength is limited."

"If we attack him together, we can definitely kill that kid."

The formidable Violent Wolf Mountain Bandit Group, consisting of hundreds of mountain bandits occupying this border area for years, found themselves helpless at the moment.

In the confrontation between Xiao Yi and Violent Wolf, these high extreme realm experts, known for their viciousness, found themselves powerless against him.

It was not hard to imagine that at this moment, Xiao Yi, in terms of strength, would be considered a formidable force in the vast Central Region.

...

Within the Purple Flame Sea.

Xiao Yi's Flame Fist had pierced through Violent Wolf's chest.

Violent Wolf's life force was rapidly diminishing.

Suddenly, Violent Wolf's life force halted; no, not only did it stop diminishing, it even started to increase.

A surge of life force burst out from Violent Wolf.

"Kid, the Central Region is not as simple as you think," Violent Wolf sneered viciously.

"In a normal region, you might be a supreme genius, but here, you're nothing."

With that, Violent Wolf grabbed Xiao Yi's arms.

"Hmm?" Xiao Yi frowned.

At this moment, Violent Wolf's power suddenly surged.

His own arms felt a tremendous pressure.

The next second, a sharp aura rushed towards his chest.

Xiao Yi was startled and quickly retreated, but due to his arms being seized by Violent Wolf, he was slightly slow.

When he retreated a dozen steps and steadied himself, his chest felt a severe stabbing pain.

Several savage claw marks made blood ooze from his chest.

These claw marks were very much like the tearing claws of a fierce demon beast.

In front, Violent Wolf's appearance had changed.

Behind him, a Martial Soul Illusion coalesced, and his body abruptly became extremely strong.

His hands turned into a pair of wolf claws with spikes.

Blood dripped from the wolf claws.

It was these wolf claws that had torn open Xiao Yi's chest earlier.

The blood dripping from them was naturally Xiao Yi's.

"Kekeke." Violent Wolf licked the blood on his claws, his eyes revealing a fierce gleam.

"Kid, watch as I tear you to shreds."

The cruel words and fierce appearance resembled nothing of a human, instead like a ferocious beast.

"Fierce Blood Sky Wolf." Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes, immediately recognizing this Martial Soul.

The Fierce Blood Sky Wolf, a Level 9 Peak demon beast.

It was one of the most ferocious, vicious, and greedy wolf-type demon beasts.

And as a Martial Soul, due to its strong 'side effects,' it was only of the Blue Peak Stage.

Those with this Martial Soul either refrained from summoning the Martial Soul Illusion for a power boost; once summoned, they would become savage and completely enter a bloodthirsty state.

Unless all enemies were dead, the Martial Soul Illusion would not dissipate.

The possessor would also fight continuously until death.

In simpler terms, as a Martial Soul, it contained a large amount of the original ferocious aura typical of demon beasts.

Bang...

A surge of imposing momentum erupted from Violent Wolf.

A remnant shadow instantly attacked Xiao Yi.

"Such speed." Xiao Yi was slightly shocked.

Violent Wolf had already arrived before him, both blood claws swiping directly.

Xiao Yi reacted swiftly, easily blocking with the Cold Flame Sword in his hand.

Bang... the blood claws instantly blasted him away.

Bang... another explosive sound.

Violent Wolf's blood claws tore through the Purple Flame Sea with ease, breaking free.

"The Grand Master is out," the mountain bandits were immediately overjoyed.

"That's not good, the Grand Master has transformed into a Martial Soul Illusion," the Second Master's expression changed.

"Quickly kill that kid, otherwise the Grand Master will go mad, and then we'll all die."

"Attack, kill that kid." The mountain bandits instantly made their move.

Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes, glancing at Violent Wolf, "Half-step Unlimited."

Indeed, now Violent Wolf, under the Martial Soul Illusion boost, had reached a half-step unlimited strength.

Xiao Yi then looked at the hundreds of mountain bandits attacking him and shook his head.

"Seems like a price must be paid to quickly end this battle."

As his words fell, Xiao Yi made a virtual grasp with his hands.

Bang... Bang... Bang... Bang...

Four surges of different colored flames coalesced.

Xiao Yi waved his hand, and the flames transformed into dozens of Flame Wandering Dragons.

"Go." Xiao Yi shouted in a low voice.

The dozens of Flame Wandering Dragons rampaged instantly.

Before these mountain bandits could react, the surroundings turned into a fiery zone.

In the fiery zone, the Flame Wandering Dragons rampaged wildly.

Including Violent Wolf, the hundreds of mountain bandits were submerged in the flames in an instant.

In just over ten seconds, when the flames dissipated and peace was restored...

Xiao Yi suddenly spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm, his face pale.

And throughout the scene, not a single living being remained.

Including Violent Wolf, the hundreds of mountain bandits were all killed in the flames.

Even though Violent Wolf had a Heavenly Extreme Ninth Layer Cultivation, his skills and combat level, and so on, were not on the same level as the Hidden Six and others whom Xiao Yi had faced before.

Even though he had a Heavenly Extreme Ninth Layer Cultivation, his skills and combat level were not in the same league as those of Hidden Six and others that Xiao Yi had encountered before.

Even they, who were in the hands of Xiao Yi, met their end effortlessly.

Let alone this mere Violent Wolf and the hundreds of mountain bandits.

Xiao Yi called forth from the Universe Ring a slew of Qiankun Bags, which came hovering through the air.

"Master, come out." A group of mountain bandits immediately rejoiced.

"Oh no, the Grand Master has turned into a Martial Soul Illusion," they quickly remarked.

Indeed, now Violent Wolf had reached a Half-step Unlimited strength under the amplification of the Martial Soul Illusion.

Violent Wolf, despite having a Heavenly Extreme Ninth Layer Cultivation, did not have the same level of skill and combat prowess as the likes of the Hidden Six whom Xiao Yi had previously encountered.

The Hidden Six, however, had met their demise at Xiao Yi's hands with ease.

And certainly more so for this mere Violent Wolf and their hundreds of mountain bandits.

Xiao Yi descended from the Purple Flame Sea. All the Qiankun Rings and Qiankun Bags flew towards him, controlling the air.

"Hmm." Xiao Yi inhaled sharply. Inside, the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures were piled up like a mountain.

There were countless treasures of all kinds.

He then noticed something in a corner of the Universe Ring.

"Primordial Stones?" Xiao Yi suddenly smiled with joy.

...

First Master.
