Batian Martial Soul

Chapter 12838 The Secret Realm of Heavenly Fire
This airship is not only fast and stable, but also has complete internal facilities, which are enough to meet their training and living needs during the journey.

As the airship slowly ascended, everyone entered their respective cultivation states. They knew that the journey to the secret realm was long and time was precious, so they could not waste even a minute.

Therefore, everyone is fully focused on cultivation, hoping to make a breakthrough during this period of time.

On the warship, everyone was sitting or standing, each immersed in their own world of cultivation. Everything around them seemed to have nothing to do with them, only the constantly flowing spiritual energy and the constantly improving cultivation were what they cared about most at the moment.

Ling Xiao sat in the secret room, closed his eyes and concentrated, forming seals with his hands in front of him, trying to merge the God-Slaying Sword Intent and the Bloodthirsty Knife Intent.

After the in-depth discussion with Jiu Lao, he realized that he still had many deficiencies in his understanding of the Holy Mark. After several days of hard study and reflection, he gradually made up for these deficiencies and felt that the use of the small fusion array was becoming more and more handy.

However, when he actually began to try to merge the God-Slaying Sword Intent and the Bloodthirsty Knife Intent, he found that it was not an easy task.

These two soul techniques each have their own merits and are extremely powerful, but to perfectly combine them is much more difficult than he imagined. He tried again and again, constantly adjusting the rhythm and strength of the fusion, but it was still difficult to achieve the desired effect.

A few days passed, and Ling Xiao still failed to successfully fuse the two soul techniques. He felt a little helpless, but he also knew that this was not something that could be accomplished overnight. He didn't like to dwell on trivial matters, because he knew that he still had many other things to do.

Therefore, he temporarily put aside the matter of fusing the God-Slaying Sword Intent and the Bloodthirsty Knife Intent, and instead began to focus on another task - to fuse the sword he got from Shangguan Yu into the God-Slaying Sword Soul.

This sword is extraordinary, containing powerful energy and unique properties.

Ling Xiao believed that if he could successfully integrate this precious sword into the Soul of the God-Slaying Sword, the power of the Soul of the God-Slaying Sword would be greatly increased. In this way, he would be more confident in going to the secret realm.

He entered the state of cultivation again, and devoted himself to this task with full concentration. He carefully controlled the sword energy, guiding the energy in the sword to gradually merge with the God-Slaying Sword Soul.

This process requires extremely high concentration and patience, and any carelessness may result in all previous efforts being wasted.

After several days of hard training, Ling Xiao's God-Slaying Sword Soul finally achieved a breakthrough. It was already a top-grade human weapon, and with Ling Xiao's unremitting efforts, it finally shone with a brilliant sword light, which was so strong that it seemed to be able to pierce the sky and reach the sky.

Under the illumination of this sword light, the grade of the God-Slaying Sword Soul also increased, and was eventually promoted to a Earthly Venerable Weapon.

Although this sword is a martial spirit, its grade has reached the level of lower-grade earth-level master, just as Ling Xiao expected.

Although it was slightly inferior to Shangguan Yu's sword in terms of grade, its power was far beyond that sword's reach. This was because the Soul of the God-Slaying Sword was not a physical weapon, but a martial soul that could fuse the power of a warrior. This fusion of power made its effect much more terrifying than any other weapon.

Just as Ling Xiao was immersed in this great joy, he opened the door happily.

However, what greeted him was Wang Xuan's nervous and concerned face. Wang Xuan was obviously startled by the sudden sword light just now. She asked nervously: "What happened just now? I thought it was an enemy attack!"

Ling Xiao looked at Wang Xuan's nervous expression, and he couldn't help but feel a little sorry. He smiled and explained, "It's okay, I'm just practicing new martial arts... Do you have something to talk to me about?"

Wang Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. She pointed to a place not far away, where there was a fire area. The raging flames were burning continuously, as if they were going to devour the entire world.

The flames were so strong that they were intimidating. At a glance, there was no end in sight. At this time, the warship they were on was still thousands of meters away from the fire area, but the scorching heat was already blowing in their faces, making people feel nervous and depressed.

Wang Xuan looked at the fire area and said solemnly, "We have arrived there. Is this the entrance to the secret realm we are heading to? This fire is so terrifying, how can we enter it?"

Her face was filled with worry and confusion, and she was clearly uncertain and fearful about the upcoming adventure.

“It’s a bit weird indeed!”

Ling Xiao stood on the deck of the warship, staring at the blazing fire area in front of him with a sharp gaze. The fire area was like a huge furnace, with flames rolling wantonly, and even the surrounding air was distorted. This place, which had just been named "Heavenly Fire Secret Realm", seemed like a forgotten ancient world, full of unknown and dangerous atmosphere.

He took a deep breath and felt the uncertainty and fear mixed in with the burning breath. However, he did not back down, but strengthened his determination.

"However, since we are here, we must go in. This is the famous Skyfire Secret Realm in the Southern Region. Maybe there is the treasure we have always dreamed of. However, danger is bound to follow, so everyone must be careful! Without my order, you are not allowed to act on your own, and you are not allowed to act separately!" Ling Xiao's voice was sonorous and powerful, with an unquestionable majesty.

"Yes!" On the deck, everyone responded in unison. Their eyes were full of curiosity about the unknown and trust in Ling Xiao. They knew that as long as Ling Xiao was there, they would have the confidence to face any difficulties and challenges.

The warship continued to sail forward, slowly approaching the blazing fire area. When it was about a hundred meters away from the Heavenly Fire Secret Realm, Ling Xiao's Tai Chi Eye suddenly caught a strange flame.

The flame was suspended in the air, like a huge fire lotus in full bloom, or like a floating ship in the shape of a fire lotus. Its colors were gorgeous and dazzling, and through the dancing of the flames, one could seem to sense an ancient and vicissitudes of life.

"Go over there and take a look." Ling Xiao pointed in that direction and ordered the helmsman. His voice was full of anticipation and curiosity, as if he had foreseen that a thrilling adventure was about to begin.

The helmsman immediately changed direction, and the warship slowly sailed into the secret realm of the skyfire. Although the flames outside were extremely hot, the fireproof cover of the warship was like a solid barrier, isolating the blazing flames from the outside.

Ling Xiao stood on the deck, looking at the strange flame in front of him, his heart full of anticipation and nervousness. He knew that this adventure might be full of dangers, but he also believed that as long as they were united, nothing could stop them from moving forward.

After all, no adventure is completely safe.
