Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“…With my current ability, 1 can’t cover your talent. You can only rely on yourself.” The incomplete consciousness in the black coffin said.
Xiao Shi couldn’t help but frown. Under his disguise, even if the other party saw that he was extremely talented, he did not do anything special. However, it made Xiao Shi realize his potential flaw.
With his cautious personality, it was difficult to tolerate such a flaw. Even if there were not many people in the entire Xingluo Province who could use their spiritual sense to detect talent, as long as there was such a flaw, it would still make Xiao Shi uneasy.
If he wanted to hide his talent, only Martial Soul Grade items could do it! Even if it was a Blood Martial Grade item that could hide, it would definitely not be able to stop the spiritual sense of a Martial Soul Realm expert.
Only Martial Soul-grade items could he block the spiritual sense.
“Looks like I have to find a few Martial Soul Realm cultivators to kill in the Xingluo Province as soon as possible.” Xiao Shi thought to himself.
Apart from considering the key point of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect, the importance of this trip was killing Martial Soul Realm cultivators. If he continued to stay in Tiandou Province, there were not many Martial Soul Realm experts who could be killed. After all, there were only so many Martial Soul Realm experts in the Tiandou Province.
If he wanted to kill more Martial Soul Realm experts, he could only do it in the Xingluo Province, where there were more experts.
This also made Xiao Shi begin to realize, after he entered the intermediate three realms of martial arts, it was no longer as easy to kill martial artists at this stage as it was in the lower three realms.
Firstly, there were definitely not as many experts in the intermediate three realms as there were in the lower three realms.
Secondly, the experts at this stage were basically all famous figures in the various states. They had already attracted the attention of all parties, so it was not easy to attack.
Xiao Shi thought that after he arrived in the Xingluo Province, he might have to plan a new killing method. The previous killing method was no longer suitable.
Although the flying ship Xiao Shi was on was relatively old and not fast, seven days later, they still successfully arrived at the border of the Xingluo Province.
As the desert gradually thinned out on the ground and the heat wave subsided, a green land slowly appeared in the eyes of everyone in the flying ship.
He looked around. The ground was mainly plains, and there were not many mountains. Xiao Shi stood on the flying ship and looked at the world from afar. An airy feeling arose. Especially after entering the Xingluo Province. He could see the city on the ground.
The cities in the Xingluo Province were larger and more prosperous than the cities in the Tiandou Province, the Purple Cloud Province, and the Zhaotian Province.
As the core state of the Xingluo Territory, Xiao Shi had already found out a lot of information about the Xingluo Province. From there, he had a rough understanding of the entire Xingluo Province.
Although Xingluo Province was the core state of the Xingluo Territory and the land of the lords, the entire Xingluo Province was not much larger than the other six provinces in terms of size. This was also a characteristic of the Xingluo Territory.
There were seven provinces in Xingluo Territory. In terms of area, they were not much different. However, the difference between experts was like the difference between heaven and earth. Not only did the Xingluo Province have Martial Demon Realm cultivators, but there was also the Sage Lord of the Xingluo Province who ruled over everything.
However, in the Xingluo Province, there was a situation that surprised Xiao Shi.
That was in the Xingluo Province, nearly half of the territory belonged to the demonic path! This situation was difficult for Xiao Shi to understand. Even in the Tiandou Province, the demonic path could only stay in three dangerous places and usually did not dare to take a step out of them. If they came out, they would be surrounded and killed by the orthodox factions.
But in the Xingluo Province, the demonic factions could occupy nearly half of the territory!? They openly established themselve and developed in the Xingluo Province.
In Xiao Shi’s opinion, in a place like the Xingluo Province, the demonic factions definitely had no room to survive. Their factions could only hide in the corners. After all, in the Xingluo Province, there was the Lord of Xingluo Territory. Any demonic faction could only be suppressed in front of him.
In this territory, the lord of the Star Luo Territory was an invincible existence, the sky of the Xingluo Territory. However, the demonic factions in the Xingluo Province were stronger than the demonic factions in the other states.
This was very unbelievable!
Based on what Xiao Shi knew so far, the reason seemed to be related to the Martial Demon Realm. However, Xiao Shi had yet to find out the exact reason. Ordinary people only knew that it was related to the Martial Demon Realm, but only those Martial Demon Realm experts knew the exact reason.
What was certain was that the lord had always agreed to this. Otherwise, with the strength of a lord, he could easily suppress these demonic factions and could not tolerate them living here.
“…I feel that the waters here are very deep!” Xiao Shi vaguely realized that the source of the demonic faction might be inseparably related to the Martial Demon Realm. This realm was indeed a little extraordinary, very different from other realms.
Apart from the demonic factions, Xiao Shi had also made a corresponding understanding of the orthodox factions. The orthodox factions could roughly be divided into three groups. The first echelon was the Xingluo Army under the lord. They only followed the lord’s jurisdiction and were the strongest army controlled by the lord. The Xingluo Army would usually only mobilize under two circumstances.
One was when there was a war with other territories. The other was to suppress the rebellion in their territory. For example, when the experts of the Xingluo Territory gathered in Tiandou Province, the Xingluo Army did not mobilize. No faction in the Xingluo Territory could contend with the Xingluo Army. This made the Xingluo Army the undisputed first echelon in the entire Xingluo Province and even the entire Xingluo Territory.
The second echelon was the Three Sword Alliance and the Temple of Prayer. These two forces were very complicated. Among them, the Three Sword Alliance was formed by a sect, a clan, and a faction. The Temple of Prayer was more mysterious. It was said that the powerhouses in the Temple of Prayer were not traditional martial artists. Instead, it was a group of people who were proficient in strange powers. It contained divination, curses, summoning, prayer, and many other strange powers.
This was not the mainstream, it could even be said that it was not martial arts, however, when an orthodox martial artist faced them, they would often have an incomparable headache. As a result, the Temple of Prayer became a powerful second-tier faction in the Xingluo Province.
There were relatively more forces in the third tier. There were a total of five major factions.
They were: Crimson Star Pavilion, Thousand Weapons Mountain, Flame Beast Valley, Mo Yu Chamber of Commerce, and the Wangchen Inn.
What surprised Xiao Shi was that the Mo Yu Chamber of Commerce was actually a third-tier faction in the Xingluo Province. No wonder the huge flying ship was accompanied by Martial Soul Realm experts at the spiritual sense stage.
Although it was only in the third tier in the Xingluo Province, even the third tier faction in the Xingluo Province was enough to easily crush the first-tier factions in the other provinces. There was a lot of information about these five third-tier forces.
Xiao Shi still needed to gradually understand. All in all, he already had a rough understanding of the factions in the entire Xingluo Province. Not long after, Xiao Shi and the others took the flying ship and arrived above a city in the Xingluo Province.
Whoosh!
The flying ship quickly landed. It stopped at the port in the city. The entire city was incomparably huge. It was very prosperous. It was obvious that the cities in the Xingluo Province were different from the cities in other provinces.
Moreover, the moment the flying ship approached the city, an extremely powerful spiritual sense swept across the flying ship. This was an extremely powerful spiritual sense. It was completely incomparable to the spiritual sense of the expert of the Mo Yu Chamber of Commerce from before.
The feeling that Xiao Shi had was at least the spiritual sense of an expert at the Life Spirit Stage! Fortunately, this spiritual sense only swept past them briefly and did not investigate them in detail.
“It seems that every city in the Xingluo Province has a Martial Soul Realm expert holding down. Moreover, they are all at the Martial Soul Realm at the Life Spirit Stage.” Xiao Shi thought of the information he had previously learned. These Martial Soul Realm cultivators at the Life Spirit Stage had extremely powerful spiritual senses and covered a wide range.
Coupled with the help of some treasures in the city, If there was a battle in the city, their spiritual senses would definitely sweep over immediately. In this way, if he wanted to kill someone in the city, especially someone at the Martial Soul Realm,
It was almost impossible!
