Chapter 193 - Chapter 196: The Strongest Below Emperor Tuoshe

After the Heaven Rank Dou Skill "Ghost Possession" ended, Xiao Xuan left Xiao Yi's Physical Body.

Xiao Yi's consciousness then slowly awakened.

Xiao Yi opened his eyes and saw the familiar, reassuring figure reappear before him.

"Ancestor..."

"You..."

Xiao Yi's voice trembled slightly as he looked at Xiao Xuan's back, somewhat incredulously.

Xiao Xuan, hearing this, slowly turned his head to look at Xiao Yi, and that familiar smile reappeared on his lips:

"Little Fellow..."

"You've performed well during this period; I am very pleased!"

In fact, as early as when Xiao Yi refined the bone-regenerating blood-melting pill in the Pill Tower, attracting the five-colored pill thunder, and Xiao Yi chose to receive the five-colored pill thunder with his Physical Body, Xiao Xuan had already awakened from his slumber.

The reason he didn't reveal himself was because Xiao Xuan wanted to see Xiao Yi's growth during this time... The result was obvious; Xiao Xuan was very satisfied with Xiao Yi's performance.

He was steady; even after gaining the identity of an honorary Elder of the Pill Tower, Xiao Yi was still able to maintain his Heart-Nature!

Even when facing this Dou Sheng Relic, Xiao Yi resisted the temptation and hid at the back of the crowd... If Xiao Yi hadn't almost been slapped to death by the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint just now, Xiao Xuan wouldn't have appeared so early... Although Xiao Yi was also excited, after nodding, he still looked up at the remnant Soul of the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint in the distance.

After all, the true owner of this relic was the remnant Soul before him!

And to obtain the true Opportunity of this relic, one must go through that wisp of remnant Soul... However, before Xiao Yi could speak, the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint first looked at Xiao Xuan and said:

"You are now also a Soul body..."

"Presumably, your Physical Body has also perished, right..."

Xiao Xuan remained silent, only looking intently at the remnant Soul of the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint... Because at this moment, Xiao Xuan was also somewhat curious about this person's identity... From the simple exchange just now, Xiao Xuan had sensed that this person's Soul Power during his lifetime had also reached the Emperor Realm!

And anyone who could reach the Emperor Realm Soul was a top-tier expert on the Continent!

However, this person had perished at least tens of thousands of years ago, and Xiao Xuan, as the former Clan Chief of the Xiao Clan, had never heard of such an expert on this Continent who specialized in Cold Ice Dou Qi and Cultivated to an Emperor Realm Soul... However, the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint smiled slightly and continued to speak to himself:

"Being able to come here is all due to fate..."

"Although I am no match for you now, that doesn't mean I wasn't your opponent in the past..."

"I wonder if the current Fighting Qi Continent still remembers my name..."

"My name is Heavenly Cold Demon Saint..."

The Heavenly Cold Demon Saint formally introduced himself at this moment.

However, after his words fell, both Xiao Yi and Xiao Xuan were utterly bewildered!

Because they had indeed never heard of the title Heavenly Cold Demon Saint... Yet, Xiao Yi couldn't help but murmur to himself.

How shocking were the words Demon Saint!

One must know that a Demon Saint had a huge difference from an ordinary Dou Sheng expert!

Those who reached the Dou Sheng Realm mostly referred to themselves as Saints!

However, a Demon Saint was the designation for a Peak Dou Sheng, or even a Half-step Dou Di expert!

Whether it was the Yellow Springs Demon Saint or the Pure Lotus Demon Saint!

Each one was an existence like a Half-step Dou Di expert!

Especially the Pure Lotus Demon Saint, he was the strongest person of his era... Therefore, this remnant Soul before him must have also been a Half-step Dou Di level expert during his lifetime!

It's just that he didn't know which ancient era this super expert belonged to!

And the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint, seeing the reactions on Xiao Yi's and Xiao Xuan's faces, also knew that his name had been completely forgotten on the Fighting Qi Continent... He let out a self-deprecating laugh: "Indeed..."

"My name has also, like the Dou Di, dissipated in the long river of time..."

Immediately the next second, the remnant Soul of the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint flickered slightly, then came before Xiao Xuan's Soul, looked at Xiao Xuan, and spoke again in a deep voice:

"You are also an Emperor Realm expert..."

"Although I don't know the reason for your demise, I believe that in your lifetime, you should have also reached the strongest existence below Dou Di..."

"At the same time, you must have also touched that threshold; you only need to take that one step to achieve Dou Di..."

The Heavenly Cold Demon Saint was, after all, a person from ancient times. He didn't know that the person before him was the closest person to Dou Di after Tuoshe Ancient Emperor!

He was even called a "Pseudo-Emperor"!

The Heavenly Cold Demon Saint sighed, then spoke again in a deep voice:

"But you should also know that in this world, there will no longer be any Dou Di appearing..."

Hearing this, Xiao Xuan then spoke in a deep voice:

"Are you saying that the Origin Emperor Qi will no longer appear in this world..."

The Heavenly Cold Demon Saint nodded upon hearing this, saying: "You could say that..."

"From Dou Sheng to Dou Di, Source Qi is the most crucial thing..."

"Without Source Qi, no matter how one Cultivates, one cannot reach Dou Di..."

"And the last Source Qi between these Dou Di was found by Tuoshe Ancient Emperor, helping him achieve Dou Di..."

"On the current Continent, my name may not be known, but you should know Tuoshe Ancient Emperor, right..."

"And I am from the same era as Tuoshe Ancient Emperor..."

Hearing this, Xiao Yi couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

No wonder the name Heavenly Cold Demon Saint was no longer heard on the current Fighting Qi Continent; it was entirely due to Tuoshe Ancient Emperor.

After all, being from the same era as Tuoshe Ancient Emperor, then naturally Tuoshe Ancient Emperor, the last Dou Di of the Fighting Qi Continent, his name would overshadow everything!

People only knew Tuoshe Ancient Emperor, but they had forgotten the strongest person below Tuoshe Ancient Emperor, the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint!

A moment later, the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint slowly turned his head to look at Xiao Yi and said softly: "Junior..."

"If I'm not mistaken, the flame in your body should be an abnormal flame, right..."

Xiao Yi nodded.

Then the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint spoke again:

"I am very familiar with this thing!"

"Recalling my time, the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor you speak of was originally just an abnormal flame, but he found a unique path to becoming Emperor!"

"That was to continuously devour the spiritual objects and abnormal flames of the world!"

"Then, with the addition of Source Qi, he achieved Dou Di!"

"Abnormal flames are spiritual objects formed by the gathering of spiritual energy over countless years in the world..."

"Devouring them, plus Source Qi, can lead to achieving Dou Di..."

"However, I was from the same era as Tuoshe Ancient Emperor, and there were more spiritual objects formed by heaven and earth than just abnormal flames..."

"If abnormal flames represent extreme yang, then there is extreme yin!"

"This extreme yin object is also the naturally formed cold Qi of the world!"

"Cold Qi, like abnormal flames, is nurtured by heaven and earth!"

"Extremely precious! So I was like Tuoshe Ancient Emperor back then..."

"He devoured abnormal flames, and I collected cold Qi..."

"However, when I finished collecting and refining all the cold Qi in the world, my Cultivation also, as expected, reached the Half-step Dou Di level!"

"At that time, I was only one step away from Dou Di, lacking only Source Qi..."

"What a pity, what a pity..."

"The last Source Qi in the world was ultimately obtained by Tuoshe Ancient Emperor, helping him achieve Dou Di..."

"And I..."

"Hahahahahahaha... It's truly the work of fate..."

When the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint spoke to this point, his words were full of unwillingness!

After all, back then, he was only that Source Qi away from Dou Di...
