Chapter 546: Island Territory - Fantasy Beast World

Xie Huan returned to Qiankun Sect and told Ye Bailong about Lan Lu and his plan to pretend to be a slave. Ye Bailong had no objection.

Afterwards, Xie Huan came to the underground cave of Turtle Island again, wanting to find A Luo.

He has completely mastered the Taixu Lingyao's mental method, but the Lingyao he practiced is always a step behind. He even used fairy jade to absorb the power inside, but the result he displayed is still not as good as A Luo's.

"There must be a key point in it, which was hidden by that kid A Luo."

Xie Huan was extremely sure, but he couldn't tell what was missing, so he could only come and ask in person.

But the underground cave was pitch black. Leng Yu and the ancient beast spirit were no longer there. The place was deserted.

"The old turtle was taken away."

Xie Huan took a closer look and found that the savage soul power in the cave had been weakened to the extreme and was very chaotic. Not only in the cave, but also in the rock wall and even in the entire Turtle Island, the savage soul power had dissipated greatly.

"The savage soul power is indeed emitted by these ancient beast spirits. After these spirits are taken away, the entire island chain will decline."

But Xie Huan didn't feel sorry.

Even if the barbarian soul power remains, the Ancient Beast Islands, as the boundary between the two tribes' territories, will most likely be reduced to ashes in the near future.

Suddenly, Turtle Island shook slightly.

Xie Huan didn't understand what was going on. At this moment, there was another earthquake. Then after a while, there was another earthquake. The intervals between them were getting shorter and the shaking was getting stronger.

After a while, the island entered a state of continuous vibration, and slight cracking sounds were heard within the rock strata.

Is the island about to collapse?
Not so fragile, right?

Xie Huan's figure flashed and he returned to Qiankun Sect. He found that all the disciples in the sect ran outside, with excited expressions on their faces, shouting: "Island, it's the island, the island has appeared!"

Island area?

Xie Huan was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that the island area of ​​the Ancient Beast Archipelago was called "Strange Beast Fantasy Land", which could transform into various kinds of strange spirit beasts, all composed of savage soul power. They would attack people and had low intelligence, but they could be subdued and kept in captivity with magic weapons or the body. However, they would weaken over time until they dissipated.

He activated the blue and silver light, and saw a little bit of savage soul power overflowing from the earth, floating towards the sky like fireflies, slowly condensing and transforming into strange spirit beasts, which began to run and soar between heaven and earth.

The cultivators outside rushed towards the spirit beasts quickly, wanting to capture some for their own practice.

Xie Huan turned into a flash of lightning and came in front of a leopard. He captured it directly with lightning. After sensing it, he found that it was indeed pure savage soul power. Just as he was about to imprison it, the leopard roared and suddenly broke into pieces, turning back into fluorescent dots and floating away.

"So fragile?"

Xie Huan was a little surprised that he hardly used any strength.

He waved his hand and absorbed the fluorescent light into his body, not wanting to waste any of it.

Then he grabbed another spirit beast, but the result was the same, it shattered at the mere touch.

"What's wrong with these strange beasts? Why are they so elusive?"

The other monks' voices of surprise and doubt were heard in the distance.

"Yeah, last time I caught that spirit bear, we fought for a long time, but this time the bear just broke into pieces when I touched it."

"There's something strange about these strange beasts. They seem to have lost their 'power' and are only for show."

"Have you noticed that the barbarian soul power on the island has been greatly weakened recently? Could it be related to this?"

Xie Huan listened to everyone's discussion, his eyes flashing with strangeness as he looked towards the earth.

The fluorescent light of these wild soul powers all floated out from the cracks in the ground, becoming less and less. Moreover, the strata that lost these fragments of wild soul power began to undergo qualitative changes and even broke.

"There's something wrong with this island. Could it be that the ancient beast spirit has been drawn away?"

Chen Ziguang appeared beside Xie Huan in a flash, looking at this "strange beast fantasy" with shock on his face.

Ye Bailong also came behind the two of them quietly.

"The spirits under Turtle Island are indeed gone, but I don't know what's happening on the other islands."

Xie Huan looked into the distance and also saw fluorescent dots. On dozens of islands in the entire island chain, there was a surge of barbaric soul power, which was indeed a sign of island activation.

"The spiritual power fluctuations on the main islands of Dragon, Snake, and Wolf are stronger. Maybe something is going on over there. Should we go over there?"

After Chen Ziguang looked around with his spiritual eyes, he asked the two people.

"no need."

Xie Huan said calmly: "These ancient beast spirits are already in the hands of Ghost King Island. It would be best if they can collect them themselves. If they can't, they will inform us. There is no need to worry. On the contrary, this island area is a rare opportunity to absorb barbaric soul power. There will be no more in the future. Try to collect as much as possible."

After Xie Huan finished speaking, he sat cross-legged in the air, formed seals with his hands, and began to practice as if no one was around.

Chen Ziguang was shocked and started to practice as well, but he felt a little sad. He had been in charge of Qiankun Sect for a thousand years and had deep feelings for it. It was inevitable that he felt sad to see that the entire island chain might be destroyed.

Ye Bailong also said nothing and continued to practice.

Seeing that the leader and the higher-ups were practicing, the disciples of Qiankun Sect gradually quieted down from the noise and entered into a state of practice.

The entire sect, as well as half of Turtle Island, became extremely quiet, which seemed somewhat out of place in the extremely noisy and chaotic environment at the moment.

Xie Huan's handprints changed rapidly, and several colors of light surged on his body.

He used the light of the Holy Spirit to cleanse the savage soul power, turning it into the purest soul power, which flowed into his soul. He then circulated the Three Vehicles Realm of Consciousness mental method to stabilize and cultivate it.

With the refinement and diffusion of spiritual consciousness, perception becomes purer and broader, but this is not the main point. Xie Huan now has "The Return of the Immortal", which far exceeds the role of spiritual consciousness in perception, absorbing savage soul power and tempering the three levels of consciousness. Its greater use is to strengthen the Nascent Soul and lay the foundation for "The True Art of Yuanzong's Soul Transformation".

When Xie Huan was washing and absorbing these fragile spirit beasts, he found that these things had basic "intelligence", or a kind of "instinct" of spirit beasts. They did not reach the level of "intelligence". They just knew how to hide, be afraid, and even showed a hint of pain when they died.

These "instincts" should have been carried by the ancient beast souls that were shattered here that year, and were integrated into every bit of energy.

Suddenly, a golden light flashed on Xie Huan's body, and he transformed into an imperial holy body. The breathtaking pressure was immediately released.

Ye Bailong and Chen Ziguang opened their eyes first, with a look of astonishment, not understanding what he was going to do.

The disciples of Qiankun Sect in all directions were greatly affected. They came out from their training and looked at each other in horror. Some of them with lower cultivation levels even knelt down on the spot and trembled on the ground.

Not only these disciples, but also the condensed ancient beast souls, also felt the pressure of the holy body, showing a faint sense of fear and submission, and were in a trance in the air.

"Come here quickly and nourish my body."

A thought was released from Xie Huan's holy body, and driven by "instinct", the spirits of the strange beasts immediately rushed towards Xie Huan, and were sucked into his body for purification and absorption.

In an instant, all the strange beasts in the sky flew towards Xie Huan.

Even those fluorescent lights that had not yet solidified disappeared.

Everyone opened their mouths in amazement.

Then how can we practice here?

Is it lonely to practice?

They all stared at Xie Huan as he inhaled wildly.

Chen Ziguang's throat moved, and he wanted to say something, asking Xie Huan to have a share, at least to give everyone some soup.

But Xie Huan's figure suddenly blurred and disappeared into the sky.

"This……"

Chen Ziguang was stunned and asked, "Where is Fellow Daoist Xie?" "He has found the method to devour the whale, so how could he be satisfied with just the spirits on Turtle Island? He must have gone to other main islands with stronger barbarian soul power."

Ye Bailong looked into the distance, his ten fingers clenched slightly, as if he felt an unusual sense of oppression.

Just as Xie Huan expected, he arrived at the Snake Island in the distance in a few flashes. This was one of the main islands, and the sky was filled with strange beasts and spirits.

Completely different from the spirit beasts on Turtle Island, the spirit beasts here are all ferocious and have enormous energy, attacking the chaotic cultivators between heaven and earth.

Xie Huan looked down at the island. Surging energy was overflowing from it. It was completely different from Turtle Island. The existence of an energy core could be clearly felt deep in the island.

It seems that the ancient beast spirit under this island has not been taken away yet.

Xie Huan came directly to the top of the energy core, activated his holy body, and his thoughts spread out like a tide. Suddenly, the strange beasts and monks on the island were all shaken. Then the strange beasts rushed towards Xie Huan and were absorbed by him.

With such a wild input of brute soul power, Xie Huan's five Nascent Souls slowly expanded in his body, all covered by a layer of pale yellow soul light, and the range of the Three Vehicles Consciousness Realm also expanded rapidly.

"Who is fellow Taoist?"

A slightly horrified voice was heard.

An old man in a yellow robe appeared in front of Xie Huan and asked with a fist clasped.

Seeing Xie Huan closed his eyes and did not answer, the old man showed anger between his brows, but he still suppressed it and said, "I am the head of the Zhang family and the chief healer. I wonder who you are, fellow Taoist?"

Xie Huan still ignored everything and acted as if no one was around.

"Good boy, how rude!"

Zhang Liao was furious, his Nascent Soul suddenly manifested, and the terrifying pressure pressed down on Xie Huan.

"roll!"

Xie Huan opened his eyes wide, clenched his right fist and struck out.

"boom!"

Zhang Liao's pressure was instantly broken, and an indescribable fist force suppressed him. The whole Snake Island rumbled and trembled continuously.

"A physical cultivation master?!"

Zhang Liao's pupils shrank. Although he realized that Xie Huan was a physical cultivator, he didn't expect him to be so strong. With a flick of his sleeves, several small black shields shot out, growing larger in the air, and blocked in front of him.

"Boom bang bang."

Although the shield was not broken, it was completely knocked away and the spiritual light on it was completely lost.

Zhang Liao's face showed horror. He was the only one who knew how strong these shields were. He immediately knew how powerful the opponent's punch was, and his face suddenly became solemn.

After Xie Huan threw a punch, he closed his eyes again and said coldly: "If you do this again, I will kill you!"

The opportunity to practice now is extremely precious and cannot be disturbed by others.

Zhang Liao was humiliated. Many disciples of the Zhang family were watching from the sidelines. He was immediately embarrassed and his face turned pale. He thought that he had to teach this kid a lesson even if he had to injure him severely.

He didn't think Xie Huan could beat him, at most both of them would suffer losses.

Suddenly, a beam of light came rushing from a distance and landed not far from Zhang Liao.

When Zhang Liao saw him, he was overjoyed and hurried forward to salute and said, "Senior Wang Chen!"

He was about to pull Wang Chen to help, but Wang Chen grabbed him, pulled him aside and said anxiously: "What are you doing?!"

Zhang Liao was a little confused: "What?"

Wang Chen scolded: "Fortunately I arrived in time, otherwise you would have died without knowing how you died."

After that, he whispered in Zhang Liao's ear: "This person is a disciple of the Holy Island."

"what?!"

Zhang Liao was so frightened that his eyeballs bulged out.

"Didn't I inform you that you should keep a low profile recently and not cause any trouble?"

Wang Chen said reproachfully.

"I have always asked my family to keep a low profile, but, but this kid, this fellow Taoist, as soon as he arrived, he used his secret method to forcibly absorb the spirits of the strange beasts on my island. I was so angry that..."

Zhang Liao said tremblingly, glancing at Xie Huan with eyes full of fear.

"Stop talking. Fortunately, this senior doesn't bother with you. I warn you again. There are several groups of people we can't afford to offend coming to the Ancient Beast Islands. Any of them can wipe us out. You should be more careful with me."

Wang Chen heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Xie Huan was indifferent, and lectured him.

"Yes Yes!"

Zhang Liao huddled behind Wang Chen, nodding like a chicken pecking at rice.

At this moment, a green light suddenly emerged from the ground and shot directly towards where Xie Huan was.

Wang Chen's pupils trembled, and he recognized that the person in the green light was a ghost master, the ghost cultivator responsible for refining the ancient beast spirits here - Gui Lan. His heart suddenly rose to his throat.

Xie Huan opened his eyes again, his eyes were full of coldness, he raised his hand, Taixu Lingyao condensed in his palm, and he flipped his hand and slapped Gui Lan.

The light flashed in the air and diverged, completely covering Gui Lan's green light.

"This is?"

Gui Lan was horrified and cried out, "Taixu Lingyao? Who are you?"

He quickly escaped in a flash and landed on the ground, then disappeared into it. The next moment he emerged from somewhere else and looked at Xie Huan in disbelief.

Wang Chen was also stunned.

This Taixu Lingyao is clearly A Luo's magical power, how come it was replicated on Xie Huan? Although the quality seems to be a little uneven, it must be Taixu Lingyao's unintentional.

"Since you recognize Lingyao, why don't you get out of here quickly and stop interfering with my practice? Otherwise, don't blame me for not considering A Luo's face and taking your life."

Xie Huan said coldly.

Gui Lan was shocked and confused about the situation, not knowing how to respond.

Moreover, although the man in front of him was strong, it was a bit ridiculous to ask him to take his life.

He snorted unconvincedly: "If you are Lord A Luo's friend, leave quickly and don't interfere with my work, otherwise don't blame me for not giving Lord A Luo face."

"You dig out your ancient spirits, and I absorb my strange beast spirits. You eat meat, and I drink some soup. Isn't that OK?"

Xie Huan stared at him and said coldly.

"You can drink the soup, but the way you drink it has affected my ability to eat meat."

Gui Lan's face darkened as he said, "The power of your holy body went straight into the ground, affecting not only the instincts of the strange beast spirits, but also my ancient beast spirit. Stop it now, or I will really be rude."

"Poke it yourself, blame me."

Xie Huan smiled and said, "I won't stop. What can you do to me? If you take action, Snake Island will surely collapse. The impact will be even greater. Let's see how you explain it to A Luo."
