Martial Research Master

336 THE EVIL SOUL

“Are you okay?” The keeper was concerned about Li Meng’s condition.

“How long was I out?”

“You were in trance for two whole days.” Li Meng was surprised to hear the actual time he was within the dream. Just two days had passed in the outside world whereas he had lived around a thousand different lives, not knowing how many millennials had passed.

“I saw your soul being shackled into some weird space as I tried reaching you but something restricted me from reaching in there. Just what did you find in that world.”

“I met the remaining consciousness of a very powerful cultivator in that world. I was forced to experience 1000 of his reincarnations one after the other as he always made it to the top of the cultivation world.”

“You seem to have gained a lot by coming here.” Keeper commented.

“I don’t know about that.” Li Meng was still uncertain as to what he had learned from the experience.

“I guess you still can’t feel the changes in your body. But it is typically given your current predicament. Please try verifying your body once again, and use any one of your weapons. Li Meng tried to do that and he felt quite different. It was as if the weapon was an extension of himself, not a separate object. The power exerted by his normal moves were equivalent to what he could exert with second-level intent.”

“What happened to me?”

.....

“A thousand lives which you experienced must have granted you enlightenment regarding weapons, and you have managed to step into the weapon body realm in all categories.” Li Meng was shocked upon discovering his unknown growth in the past two days. What would have taken him years of practice was achieved in a smear of two days.

“You should be thankful to him. Did you manage to know his name?”

“He didn’t give out a name, but I did manage to know his cultivation realm.”

“What was it?” Even the Keeper was intrigued.

“He said that when he left this consciousness, he was at the peak of Exalted immortal level.” The Keeper was silent for a very long time before saying something.

“It seems that you have lucked out. I will tell you what that level signifies once you reach the Half-saint realm at the very least. Knowing too much would be detrimental to your growth. What I can do say is, from the place where I belong, that level of cultivation isn’t even considered an ant. I hope you understand how far your path of martial cultivation is.”

Li Meng was shocked after learning about the grand origin of the artifacts, but he decided to forget about it and train to grow his powers.

“Leaving that aside, I guess it’s time to tell what the next level of weapon cultivation is. Once you manage to enter the level of the weapon body, you need to enhance it by ten levels before you reach the very peak. Once you reach the peak, your body can transform itself into a weapon.”

“It is ext path of weapon cultivation and you are required to practice for a very long time even for the next breakthrough.”

“What lies beyond the Weapon body?” Li Meng was inquisitive.

“Beyond the level of weapon body is the weapon heart. There is no way to reach that level with practice alone. You need to grasp a very lucky encounter or a miracle to even reach the peak level of the peak of the weapon’s body, much less the weapon’s heart. You should concentrate on the matter at hand.”

Li Meng nodded in agreement. It was his fortune to have managed to reach the weapon’s body level. But his true objective was yet to be fulfilled. He had to connect with a Chaos law, and the only way to do that was by getting the extreme Yin tree. Li Meng was rushing into the exit when he came across another large hall.

In the middle of the lay a large voyeur altar, on top of which was the extreme Yin tree that Li Meng wanted. The altar seemed a little strange and Li Meng refrained from rushing in without any plans. He decided to verify the situation around the altar and looked for clues on how to get it.

He tried throwing an object into it, but there was no response on the altar, and he decided to wait for some time.

“Do you find something odd with the altar?”

“It looks like a binding formation from ancient times. The only thing I can’t verify is that it is binding?” The Keeper said.

“It is binding a very powerful creature from the ancient times.” A voice sounded in LI Meng’s mind. Not only Li Meng but even the Keeper was astonished upon hearing the voice. He scanned the hall earlier and couldn’t find anything.

You should stop looking around. I’ll be right in front of you.” The two looked in front and the Extreme Yin tree was the only thing in sight.

“The tree has grown a consciousness of his own.” The Keeper deduced.

“I have gained consciousness. They are confirmed. The Keeper was surprised that he was found out.

“You are quite a mystery to yourself boy. To hold such an ancient and powerful treasure in your hands, you must have come across a very fortunate encounter. I couldn’t even deduce the source or grade of this treasure, which means that it is something from a higher plane of existence than mine, which is surprising.”

“May I request the entity within the boy to come out and speak with me. The tree said.

The keeper analyzed the situation first and then decided to go through with it. He came out of Li Meng’s body and presented himself to the Tre.

“Shouldn’t you come forward and greet the guest too.” The tree said. Another vibration took place and a voice sounded.

“It is certainly something from a very high plane.” It was the altar that shook this time.

“May we be allowed to know which plane sir comes from.” The tree asked.

“You are not worthy enough.” The Keeper replied without any emotions. The altar and tree were silent for some time, before finally speaking again.

“I guess we will not be able to know too much about you. Anyway, congratulations on passing through the passage of eternal suffering. You must have gained the treasure left behind by the Nether Sovereign. It was his lifelong teaching and experience. We both belonged to the Nether Sovereign too and we’re left here to seal an entity from ancient times.”

“It must be an evil soul right?” The Keeper said.

“It indeed is an evil soul and a powerful one at that. We would like to request your assistance to help us solve the problem. With this, we could finally rest in peace after fulfilling the mission granted to us by our master.”
