He has already realized that the old man definitely does not dare to kill him easily; otherwise, he would have acted long ago. Since that is the case, his purpose for coming here is naturally self-evident—there must be something he needs from him.
The old man stared at Xing Chen, thinking to himself that if it weren't for needing this kid's Thunderfire Pearl, he would have slapped him to death long ago and wouldn't have to endure his humiliation.
"Feel free to state your conditions; as long as they are not too excessive, I can agree to them," the old man said in a deep voice, and the oppressive Soul Power that was pressing down on Xing Chen gradually dissipated.
Feeling this familiar scene before him, Xing Chen couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, recalling how Meng Xiner had also negotiated terms with him not long ago.
"I want to know what you want me to do," Xing Chen said as he looked up at the old man, his voice very calm, as if he had no concerns about the old man in front of him.
"For you, this is a good thing. I need to go to a certain place, but there is an endless Thunderfire Power blocking the way. Only by using your Thunderfire Pearl can I safely pass through there."
The old man smiled; after all, Xing Chen would find out about this sooner or later, so there was no harm in telling him now.
"A good thing? It’s probably a good thing that will cost me my life," Xing Chen said with a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth. He didn't believe in the so-called good thing mentioned by the old man. There has never been such a thing as a free lunch in this world; even if it did exist, it wouldn't fall upon someone like him who had no luck whatsoever.
"To be honest with you, it is indeed very dangerous there. Even I cannot guarantee my own safety. However, the opportunities there are quite significant—Divine Weapons, elixirs, Cultivation Methods, everything you could imagine. Moreover, there are some unexpected things, such as secret methods specifically for cultivating Soul Power!"
The old man's face showed a smile, tempting Xing Chen like an old fox.
"Of course, if you come with me, I will definitely ensure your safety. After all, although it is dangerous there, as long as you are not greedy, you shouldn't face any life-threatening risks."
Upon hearing this, Xing Chen showed a thoughtful expression. Although the old man might not be entirely truthful, his Soul Power was indeed far beyond that of others at the same level—no, it should be said that they were simply incomparable.
"I see that your strength is formidable and you possess a treasure that can resist soul attacks. However, your own soul is very weak. If you are willing to accompany me on this trip, how about I teach you my secret method for cultivating the soul?"
The old man was truly willing to go all out to persuade Xing Chen, even offering up his own secret method for cultivating Soul Power.
Hearing this from the old man made Xing Chen's eyes light up instantly. His Soul Power indeed lacked any outstanding features; it merely improved alongside his cultivation level. This limitation meant that his Soul Power would always be restricted by his own cultivation.
The conditions proposed by the old man precisely captured his weakness, and deep down, Xing Chen felt a flicker of temptation.
Of course, he did not expect the old man to impart the secret technique to him without reservation; just a portion would be sufficient for his use. Moreover, the power that the Plaque could exert was closely related to his own soul. If his Soul Power could be enhanced, then the strength of the Plaque within his body could be further amplified.
Furthermore, if he resolutely refused the current proposal, the other party would undoubtedly become furious and kill him. In this case, it would be better to temporarily compromise with the other side. Although it was akin to seeking skin from a tiger, it was not entirely without opportunity.
"Alright, I agree," Xing Chen said, his gaze flickering for a moment before he nodded.
"What treasure on you can resist my Soul Power?" The old man stared at Xing Chen for a while before suddenly asking.
After hearing the old man's question, Xing Chen looked at him but did not respond. The two exchanged glances for a moment.
The old man withdrew his gaze and did not pursue the matter further. Then, a wave of soul energy suddenly surged into Xing Chen's mind.
"This is the soul secret technique that I have cultivated." The old man kept his word and directly transmitted the soul secret technique he had practiced into Xing Chen's mind.
Xing Chen closed his eyes to receive the information emanating from the old man's soul. He was not afraid that the old man would play tricks on his soul; after all, deep within his soul resided the Mysterious Jade Pendant. If the old man dared to make any moves, he would undoubtedly be mercilessly suppressed by the Mysterious Jade Pendant.
"Let's go. There is still half a month until that place opens. You should take care of some trivial matters during this time," the old man said coldly after transmitting the soul secret technique to Xing Chen.
"I need to return to Remnant Sword Sect and also see if I can cultivate this soul secret technique you gave me," Xing Chen replied as he opened his eyes and glanced at the old man.
The old man did not oppose this; however, he did not let Xing Chen leave alone but accompanied him back to Remnant Sword Sect.
Upon returning to Remnant Sword Sect, Xing Chen once again entered the secret chamber and began to cultivate the secret technique Soul Devouring Refinement Technique that the old man had transmitted to him. This was a specialized technique for refining souls, divided into nine levels, with Soul Refinement Realm allowing cultivation of the first level.
Naturally, the old man only taught Xing Chen the method for cultivating the first level.
"Soul Devouring can strengthen one's own spirit by devouring others' souls..."
Xing Chen carefully studied the cultivation method of Soul Devouring Refinement Technique and began practicing according to what was recorded above.
"Unfortunately, there are no Vengeful Spirits or souls here for me to devour; otherwise, my Soul Power would definitely increase rapidly." After a while, Xing Chen stopped his cultivation, as his progress was quite slow.
The purpose of the Soul Devouring Refinement Technique is to consume Soul Devouring souls and Vengeful Spirits. Only these two things can significantly enhance Xing Chen's Soul Power!
If Xing Chen simply sits in meditation, even if he cultivates for three or four years, his Soul Power would only be slightly stronger than that of other experts at the same level.
"However, this Soul Devouring Refinement Technique is indeed terrifying. A practitioner at the Soul Refinement Realm can enhance their Soul Power to a level comparable to that of a Yang Spirit Second Layer Realm expert by cultivating this technique."
"If I can cultivate the first layer of the Soul Devouring Refinement Technique to its peak, then when facing that old Rascal, I won't be completely powerless to resist."
Xing Chen's mind was racing as he thought about how to deal with the old man. Although he had reached an agreement with him, Xing Chen needed to think of a way to handle him in advance; otherwise, it would be too late once he turned hostile.
"Since I can't significantly increase my Soul Power in a short time, I can only focus on improving my cultivation level." Xing Chen's gaze flickered slightly as several Earth-Level Remnant Soldiers appeared in his hands.
After taking out the Earth-Level Remnant Soldier, Xing Chen's mouth twitched slightly, and then he began to pray that the Mysterious Jade Pendant wouldn't cause any trouble this time.
He then used the Thunderfire Divine Ring to absorb the sharp sword energy from the remnants and started absorbing the Negative Power within. Perhaps the Mysterious Jade Pendant heard his prayer; this time it did not come out to cause trouble, and Xing Chen's strength finally began to increase.
The bottleneck in the mid-stage of the Soul Realm was almost instantly broken through in front of this endless Negative Power.
