Chapter 1127: Attempting to Become Soul Emperors!

It wasn't hard to imagine how long the Immortal Iridescent Phoenix lived. How much of that lifespan it spent learning about the world and its elements. Thousands and thousands of years worth of knowledge was gathered in the bones of this phoenix.

Bai Yunfei wasn't finding it very hard to understand the insights on the Law of Fire being passed on to him from the Immortal Iridescent Phoenix. His own understanding of the Law was helping him advance by leaps and bounds and also indirectly helping Xiao Qi further his understanding on the matter.

The rate of progression with the Law of Lightning wasn't as fast, but Xiao Qi was helping him a decent amount. Thanks to that Bai Yunfei was enjoying a never-before-experienced level of understanding.

One had to fully understand a Law in order for them to become a Soul Emperor. Once that was met, the soul cultivator is able to draw upon the energy of the world in both quantity and quality far beyond when they were a Soul Emperor. It was actually with a Law that one would be able to unleash more power than before. With the power of Law, one could strengthen the body and reinforce the soul. The origin essence could be expanded and the transformation could be complete. With Law, one can become a Soul Emperor!

That was the reason why patriarch Qin failed to become a Soul Emperor. He was obstructed by Jing Wuying and failed to draw in enough of the world's energy to further his understanding of a Law.

It was crucial for a person to appreciate a Law for what it is to become a Soul Emperor. Understanding and realization of a Law was not something that could be supplemented or substituted for by any number of soul stones or medicine. It required the power of reflection for someone to accomplish. Without that, one would never become a Soul Emperor.

The considerations of the Immortal Iridescent Phoenix made it possible for both Xiao Qi and Bai Yunfei to learn more about their respective elements and the Laws behind them. They were being guided on the right path. Now all they needed to do was continue walking and hopefully become a Soul Emperor!

Of the two, Xiao Qi was far more experienced with the Law of Lightning than Bai Yunfei. The primary reason was due to him gaining plenty of experience when he killed the avatar of the Wind Lightning School's headmaster. And now with the help of the Immortal Iridescent Phoenix, Xiao Qi was improving far more efficiently.

Bai Yunfei's original plan was to have Xiao Qi breakthrough first since his own understanding of elemental fire and lightning would indirectly increase. Afterward, he'd find another soulbeast of the same elements to inherit and hopefully learn enough to attempt to become a Soul Emperor.

But it didn't seem like he had to do that anymore. He didn't have to find a second soulbeast inheritance—the Immortal Iridescent Phoenix was more than enough for the both of them!!

The both of them were deep in their meditational trance now. Everything in the world was lost to them as they reflected upon their impermanence. It was going extremely well for them—perhaps the time was ripe for them to attempt to breakthrough!

"Bzzz…"

The world trembled once more as the red and violet light around Bai Yunfei thickened. The Laws were being transferred from the Immortal Iridescent Phoenix to Bai Yunfei in great volumes.

His body began to tremble. It felt like he was being dragged by an invisible energy into the air and being levitated toward the top of the tree!

As if unsatisfied with the rate of absorption, Bai Yunfei decided to head straight for the source itself!

Xiao Qi looked like he ordinarily did when training. His head was tucked in between his folded wings like he was in a cocoon. Of the four colors shining forth from his body, the red and violet rays shined the brightest. The light began to shine even brighter when Bai Yunfei drew close before a green light started to grow brighter as well…

The bird must have decided to move on from the Laws of Fire and Lightning. It was apparently time for him to delve into the Law of Wind. As such, Bai Yunfei decided to ignore the connection between him and the bird so he could focus on the Laws of Fire and Lightning.

Under the near-perfect guidance of the Immortal Iridescent Phoenix, the Laws poured forth into Xiao Qi's mind for him to absorb and expound on. His understanding of the Law of Wind was growing deeper and deeper by the second until it was on par with his understanding of the Laws of Fire and Lightning. That meant it was about time for the last Law, the Law of Wood…

The concept of daytime didn't exist in the Tomb. It was a domain of perpetual night and darkness. As such, neither Bai Yunfei nor Xiao Qi would know how long they spent meditating even if they were currently aware of the passage of time. It wasn't even until the sea of flames and the pool of lightning had reached a certain point when Bai Yunfei's eyes flew open!

"Gong…."

One eye sparked to life with fire while the other with lightning. Two little sparks in origin and yet they resonated with the surrounding world with enough force to send a tremor!

The sea of flames and pool of lightning froze at the same time Bai Yunfei's eyes snapped open. Flowing as if being sucked into a vacuum, the two energies were taken into Bai Yunfei's body!

It was as if his body was now a black hole specifically meant to drain the world of those two energies!

"Chirp!!!"

A loud chirp could be heard from the area next to him. Four different colors exploded exuberantly as a huge sphere of multicolored light shot up into the sky. The four elements Xiao Qi could use were being drawn into the sphere and then into his own body!

Both Bai Yunfei and Xiao Qi were attempting to break through!

The world grew silent once again now that both Bai Yunfei and Xiao Qi started to absorb as much energy as they could. So great were their attempts that the dimension started to warp under the pressure. More and more energy was being torn away from their regular circulation to feed the two of them.

But it wasn't enough!

The illusionary phoenix spread its wings far apart at that moment. Red, violet, light green, and dark green light poured out from its bones to fill the air. It's 'body' was becoming more and more transparent!

The majority of this newly-introduced energy was being streamed toward Xiao Qi, but a portion of the fire and lightning energies were being allocated toward Bai Yunfei too.

It seemed the assistance the Immortal Iridescent Phoenix provided for Xiao Qi was more than enough for the weaker bird to meet his needs. But since the majority of that energy was meant for Xiao Qi, that meant there wasn't enough for Bai Yunfei!

It normally would've been enough for any regular soul cultivator to breakthrough. But Bai Yunfei's case was different since he had two fireseeds!

So the amount elemental fire he needed was double that of the regular amount!

Surrounded by the violet-tinted flames, Bai Yunfei waved his right hand to bring out as many fiery-red stones as he could from his space ring.

They were fire-type primal stones!

It was absolutely mind-boggling how many of those primal stones he had. For hundreds of meters around, those stones filled every inch of the air in massive amounts!

"Bang bang bang bang…"

A series of miniature explosions could be heard one after another as the primal stones began to explode. Transforming into dust, they fell into the flames and enriched it with their energy!

"It's not enough!!"

That wasn't enough for Bai Yunfei! Another salvo of fire-type primal stones was brought out with a wave of his hand again!
