Peerless War God

Chen Xiao also didn't know how much time had passed. He only knew that his consciousness was getting weaker and weaker, and his soul was getting weaker and weaker.    

In the end, all he knew was that he was subconsciously tearing at the black divine soul that coiled around his body.    

On the other hand, Azure Emperor continued to grow braver as the battle progressed. Even if Chen Xiao's soul was tearing and biting his body, he paid it no heed.    

Because he knew that Chen Xiao would not be able to hold on for much longer!    

If Chen Xiao could not hold on, then this body would be his!    

When that time came, he would be able to take back all that he had lost!    

However, changes often occurred at this time!    

Before Chen Xiao's soul had completely lost all consciousness, it had decisively given up all self-defense, opened its bloody mouth, and crazily pounced towards the Azure Emperor to bite him.    

"Hmph, it's just a spent force. You still dare to stubbornly resist?" Azure Emperor disdained.    

Just as he was about to completely devour Chen Xiao's soul in one go, a strange power suddenly exploded from the depths of Chen Xiao's sea of consciousness.    

Almost in an instant, it engulfed the entire sea of consciousness.    

The seemingly calm and serene sea of consciousness was instantly mobilized.    

A terrifying pressure instantly acted on the soul of the Azure Emperor!    

That terrifying might actually suppressed Azure Emperor to the point where he couldn't move at all. He wanted to struggle free, but discovered that he couldn't even reach it!    

Azure Emperor's expression changed. Just as he was about to struggle free, he instantly revealed a terrified expression.    

Because, he realized that the gray fog within his entire sea of consciousness, had actually all surged toward Chen Xiao's divine soul, and was rapidly starting to repair Chen Xiao's divine soul!    

"You can do this?" Azure Emperor was dumbstruck.    

However, what surprised Azure Emperor even more was still to come!    

He was suppressed by the majestic pressure and could not move, but Chen Xiao was not affected at all, and continued to crazily devour his soul!    

This time, it was the Azure Emperor who could not stop screaming in pain.    

He kept struggling, wanting to break free from Chen Xiao's encirclement. However, he realized that he couldn't do it!    

And the current Chen Xiao had long since lost all consciousness, so all that his soul had done was merely relying on instinct.    

...    

Time passed second by second.    

No matter how much Azure Emperor struggled in Chen Xiao's sea of consciousness, in the end, he was still unable to struggle free.    

Chen Xiao felt as if he had been dreaming for a very long time.    

In his dream, he seemed to have transformed into a Azure Emperor, waving his aura around in the midst of thousands of soldiers and horses.    

This dream was really strange. Chen Xiao felt that he had become someone else, and although he wanted to wake up, he was unable to do so.    

It was only at the very end when he was fighting an extremely powerful existence that Chen Xiao finally woke up from his stupor!    

Inside the cave, Chen Xiao who was lying on the floor suddenly sat up.    

His body was covered in dust and sweat, making Chen Xiao's entire person look slightly slovenly. And not far away, there were white bones scattered all over the ground, which seemed extremely strange.    

Subconsciously lifting up his hand to take a look, Chen Xiao muttered to himself. "Azure Emperor's Possession failed?"    

The current Chen Xiao, was still Chen Xiao. However, when Chen Xiao probed his sea of consciousness and body with his divine sense, he did not find any trace of the Azure Emperor!    

Obviously, the Azure Emperor had disappeared from his body!    

He subconsciously reached out with his divine sense, wanting to observe the situation around the stone room, but he didn't expect that in just an instant, even the entire island outside the stone room would appear in Chen Xiao's mind!    

"My spiritual will can scan a 100 mile radius?" Chen Xiao gasped.    

Previously, although Chen Xiao's spiritual will was strong enough, it was only barely able to scout the surrounding tens of thousands of meters. Wanting to scout out things that were hundreds of kilometers away was simply impossible!    

Just now, Chen Xiao had only subconsciously used his spiritual will to scan his surroundings, but the situation outside the island was instantly reflected in Chen Xiao's mind!    

This could only prove that in a short period of time, Chen Xiao's spiritual will had increased by at least ten times!    

"Could it be because of Azure Emperor's possession?" Chen Xiao slightly raised his brows.    

After thinking about it for a while, besides this reason, Chen Xiao could not think of any other factor.    

He carefully probed the surroundings with his spiritual will for a while. After confirming that there was indeed no danger, he withdrew his gaze and looked at the jade bed beside him.    

Previously, the Azure Emperor's soul had leapt out from the jade bed, if you were to say that there was no oddity on the jade bed, Chen Xiao would not believe it!    

Standing up and approaching, indeed, he found a fist-sized hole in the center of the jade bed, and inside the hole, there was a piece of pitch-black wood embedded inside. The reason why Chen Xiao didn't pay attention to it before, was because the corpse had already covered up the hole.    

It was obvious that Azure Emperor had this thought when he was on the verge of death and purposely sat the corpse on top of the hole. As for the information in the jade slip about helping him rest in peace, he directly buried it inside the cave, obviously to allow people to touch his corpse, so that he would have the chance to seize his body.    

Even the two jade chips were designed for this purpose!    

If it was an ordinary person, would they be very excited after obtaining the Azure Emperor's Qingming Mantra?    

At that time, his mind would be at its most relaxed. Once he possessed a body, he would be able to achieve twice the results with half the effort!    

It had to be said that this Azure Emperor was truly an absolute machine. It could even be said that he had calculated it into the hearts of people. To be able to become an existence at the level of a Divine Emperor was definitely not a coincidence!    

However, in the end, it still fell into Chen Xiao's hands, causing Chen Xiao to not know what to say.    

He might sigh in his heart, but he definitely wouldn't feel sympathy for her.    

With a wave of his hand, the black, round wood that was embedded in the jade couch flew out and landed in Chen Xiao's hands.    

As the black wood fell, a strange fragrance wafted out from the black wood. Just by smelling it, one's body and mind would feel comfortable.    

"Is this a soul-nourishing wood?" Chen Xiao's eyes lit up as he stared at the piece of black wood in his hand.    

soul-nourishing wood, as the name implies, could nourish the soul, and could even cause a warrior to die. If one could preserve their soul and not perish, living within the soul-nourishing wood, there was a possibility of rebirth by seizing another's body.    

Even if it was not an ornament made from soul-nourishing wood and was used to host the spirit, as long as it was on one's body, they could nourish the spirit all the time and keep it clear. It could be said to be a rare good thing.    

It was obvious that the Azure Emperor from before resided within this section of soul-nourishing wood!    

Understanding this, the corner of Chen Xiao's mouth hooked up into a cold smile.    

His gaze fell on the bones that were scattered on the ground. He waved his hand and a wave of mana surged out and swept these bones into a hole that was not far away.    

With a wave of his hand, the hole was filled up once again. Chen Xiao turned around and walked outside.    

He calmly said as they walked: "Since you have completely disappeared then I won't care about the previous matter. Since I have inherited from you, I will try my best to fulfill my promise. You should rest in peace!"    

With that, Chen Xiao's figure completely disappeared into the end of the path.
