In the mysterious Titan's Abyss, with its terrifying and eerie stone murals and the shocking battles of giants, these clues have already formed a skeletal truth, though this skeleton still needs more elements to flesh it out!
Ye Feng may not understand much at this moment, but compared to most people, he has already grasped quite a bit! For instance, the voice echoing in his mind is undoubtedly linked to this Underground Palace. If he could extract some words from this person, then even if he doesn't go out, he can rest assured. After all, in this strange Mural World, communicating with such a peculiar Divine Sect through Divine Soul is certainly a form of entertainment!
Having realized this, Ye Feng cast aside all previous confusion and irritation, replaced by a strong desire to know more. He wanted to understand the conspiracy on Yue Ma Plain and the secrets of this Underground Palace more clearly. It seems that God has undoubtedly given him the best key; it just depends on whether he has the ability to unlock it!
With this thought in mind, Ye Feng adjusted his mindset and suddenly spoke seriously into the air: "Senior, you are an ancient Divine Sect; surely you won't be angered by a junior like me. I apologize for my previous ineptitude and hope you can forgive me!"
No matter where one is, flattery is a universal truth that never changes!
The master of Echo found this quite enjoyable and responded with satisfaction: "Not bad, not bad; you learn quickly. Kid, your future is bright; you will surely walk the great path!"
This statement was quite profound. Ye Feng felt a wave of skepticism in his heart; the level of insincerity in those words was even deeper than his earlier flattery. How could he take it at face value? However, he still pretended to be grateful and replied, "Not at all, Senior is mistaken!"
As soon as such overly polite words were spoken, the master of Echo immediately became displeased!
"What? Do you think I'm joking with you? So young, although your cultivation isn't impressive, your Divine Soul is so powerful. Do you know how many top-tier powerhouses from this world have infiltrated this Underground Palace over countless years but ended up facing total annihilation?"
With a shift to a serious tone, upon hearing such words, Ye Feng was taken aback. His eyes were filled with confusion and bewilderment. He couldn't comprehend just how dangerous this Underground Palace really was. Of course, he didn't doubt Echo's words; he simply couldn't understand what exactly was hidden within this Underground Palace that could lead to the downfall of countless strong individuals mentioned by Echo. He believed that those who could be considered strong in Echo's eyes must at least be at the Martial Saint level. Although this Underground Palace felt very unusual to him, could it truly be that terrifying?
He recalled the recent battle he had observed among the Titan Race and wondered if there were still such demons alive within the Underground Palace?
Thinking of this, Ye Feng couldn't help but feel a sense of dread; his Divine Soul trembled faintly, sensing unease! At that moment, Echo mocked him, "You useless brat, I just praised you a moment ago, and now you're scared?"
"Who’s scared!" After all, Ye Feng was still in the body of a youth, and he couldn't help but shout back. He wasn't truly afraid; it was just that feeling of being kept in the dark that made him uneasy! In the grand scheme of things, the hand of fate manipulating a person's life—how could that feel good?
Just as he was lost in thought, Echo continued, "Kid, don’t worry. That kind of monster no longer exists. Instead of that, you should be more concerned about your own situation!"
Finally, the conversation shifted to something serious. Ye Feng was taken aback and snapped back to reality. He narrowed his eyes, feeling a bit wary of the master behind Echo. Just moments ago, he had been caught off guard by a few words and had fallen into a dazed state.
The ability to bring about invisible changes through conversation was terrifying. Regardless of whether he was overthinking it or not, it seemed prudent for him to be cautious around this entity that had yet to reveal itself!
"The senior's words are exactly what I wanted to say. I really want to know what I should do now."
He didn't ask where he was or who the other person was; such foolish questions were enough for one time. Ye Feng was still in the Mural World, and that person didn’t want to disclose which ancient Divine Sect they belonged to. Since the other party was unwilling to discuss it, he naturally wouldn't ask again.
At this moment, Ye Feng genuinely wanted to know what he needed to do for the other party to let him go.
Although he understood that the other party meant him no harm, he truly disliked the feeling of being led around.
Echo soon responded, this time surprisingly gentler: "I know you have many questions right now. Don’t worry; I will tell you everything slowly. For now, I just want you to feel completely at ease; in this world I created, you are absolutely safe."
Ye Feng had no doubts about this. Although he couldn't discern whether the world beneath his feet was real or fake, even if it were an illusion, its realism indicated that the other party was quite extraordinary! Knowing this kept him from acting foolishly and threatening them.
Then Echo asked, "Now, I can answer your first confusion: why I trapped your Divine Soul."
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng's heart leaped; they were finally getting to the point. Understanding this matter first was key to putting his mind at ease!
Echo quickly explained: "Believe it or not, I trapped you because I found your Divine Soul very familiar. This familiarity doesn’t imply any relationship between us; rather, there aren’t many beings with such a Divine Soul in this world. Little one, let me ask you: are you cultivating immortality?"
"Words that astonish are never forgotten." Ye Feng was taken aback. He did not expect that the other party could deduce he was a cultivator just by sensing his Divine Soul. It is worth mentioning that not all cultivators possess a Divine Soul. In the Divine Martial Continent, any powerful martial artist can cultivate their own Martial Soul. The nature of this Martial Soul is actually similar to that of a Divine Soul; both are spiritual manifestations that arise when one's mental power reaches a certain level.
In simpler terms, the first vessel of a person is innate, while the Divine Soul or Martial Soul serves as the second vessel acquired later. The first vessel has a wide range of functions, encompassing everything a person needs to do in life—eating, sleeping, cultivating, and so on. It is an essential part of being human. However, not everyone possesses the second spiritual manifestation.
Powerful individuals will have their mental power become abundant, and when martial artists reach a critical point, their Martial Soul forms, allowing them to create unique skills, such as mental attacks. The same principle applies to the Divine Soul, but there is a slight distinction: only cultivators produce a true Divine Soul as their second spiritual manifestation. Although martial artists above the Gangwu Realm may have Martial Souls that appear similar to Divine Souls, in this era where cultivators are declining in the Divine Martial Continent, Martial Souls are often generically referred to as Divine Souls.
In reality, a cultivator's Divine Soul is far more powerful than a Martial Soul. Therefore, discerning whether someone is a martial artist or a cultivator based on their Divine Soul state is quite challenging.
The owner of this Echo had clearly guessed his true identity with this question. After Ye Feng's initial shock, he did not have time to think too much and respectfully replied, "Indeed, I am the junior here. In front of you, senior Powerful Being, I find it hard to conceal my identity!"
Despite saying this, Ye Feng's heart was in turmoil.
The Echo's owner seemed unfazed by the revelation. He smiled lightly and said, "Kid, it seems you still harbor some suspicion towards me. Well, being cautious is good; you should know that over the years, many self-righteous martial artists who infiltrated the Underground Palace met their demise due to carelessness!"
Changing the subject awkwardly, Ye Feng forced an embarrassed smile and remained silent as the Echo continued, "Let me ask you again: did you enter the Path to Immortality early on but chose martial arts due to the lack of Spirit Energy in this world?"
If Ye Feng was already astonished that this person could see through his true identity before him, then this statement made him feel completely exposed—he had no secrets left. It felt as if he were stripped bare even while clothed!
He was shocked into silence and could only acquiesce! His heart was tumultuous and hard to calm.
The Echo sighed to himself and said, "Indeed, indeed! Kid, do not panic; my ability to see your past lives is merely coincidence. Bringing you into this Wall of Worlds is more about fate."
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng was rendered speechless with astonishment. Not only had this person seen through his two lifetimes but also spoke such words—could it be that he too...?
Without allowing him to continue guessing, Echo spoke again: "No need to think further; you will eventually know my true identity. Now, since you have admitted your own matters, I can tell you that I have kept your Divine Soul because I appreciate that you were once a genuine cultivator!"
"Based on this, I wish to promote you. You might think that such a good fortune falling from the sky is not that simple, but I still want to say that although this world is full of schemes and intrigues, it is not entirely so. For instance, I have been wandering in this Mural World for over Ten Thousand Years."
"Over Ten Thousand Years! The world has changed beyond recognition; everything is different now. I am too lazy to care about benefits or losses. Today, unexpectedly, I have encountered someone like you who is fated. So listen carefully to all my words; this should not be a problem, right?"
He rambled on about many things without getting to the point, but Ye Feng could sense the sigh and sincerity in his tone. Having lived two lives, he believed he could discern the truthfulness in someone's voice. However, the feeling Echo gave him remained elusive.
Out of politeness, he nodded and said, "Senior, please speak freely; I will listen and believe."
Upon hearing this, Echo laughed heartily: "Among peers, there is no need for such formality. To be honest, it is not that I do not want to reveal my identity; it is simply because in this world and this era, perhaps no one knows my name anymore. But since we share a lineage, there is no harm in telling you!"
"Listen well; my name is Haotian Shura True Monarch! In this life, I am an Exalted One from the Ancient Era's Cloudless Immortal Realm. In your current terms, that would be an ancient Divine Sect! However, now I have long since Shattered Void and what you are communicating with now is my External Incarnation left over from Ten Thousand Years ago!"
"External Incarnation? Shattered Void?" Just these four words completely bewildered Ye Feng. He had never heard of Haotian Shura True Monarch nor of the Cloudless Immortal Realm, but those details were not important. What mattered was that he understood the definition of External Incarnation...
That External Incarnation was something that required at least reaching the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm in his previous life!
