Chapter 992: Half-Soul Mark

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Not giving up until the last minute!

Perhaps it was because of Xia Fei’s unwillingness to resign himself to defeat, but a strange glow inside him responded to his perilous situation and began to take subtle effect.

This glow came from his seventh brain region, the key location that determined a warrior’s talent. Something peculiar was happening to the already depleted rainbow energy ball, transforming it into an incomplete golden mark!

Though his golden mark was just some simple lines that could hardly be called complete, the elevated power it gave to Xia Fei was akin to a tsunami that threatened to consume everything!

Energy was crazily increasing as Xia Fei’s Inner Demon and killing intent rose mightily, driven by the energy! The two Founders in the distance widened their eyes respectively, as incredulous stares appeared on their faces!

It was far too overwhelming. The desperate Xia Fei had a sudden explosion of energy that even the Founders were frightened by! At this rate, it would not be too long before Xia Fei would accumulate an amount of energy that could rival that of a Founder!

Originally, the arduous combat had exhausted Xia Fei of his energy, and he had no choice but to expend his lifeforce in order to supplement his energy consumption, allowing him to barely fight on against the two Founders.

But as this mysterious mark in his brain region was activated, it was like an ocean of energy was flooding into Xia Fei’s body. The moment this ten-thousand ton gate opened, it was an absurd outpouring that gave him back his energy! Even Xia Fei’s lifeforce was more vigorous than before!

*Kaboom*

In contrast to the Law of Primal Chaos attack that Xia Fei had previously unleashed aimlessly, now three Dark Moon Waning Slashes roared into existence again and again!

The situation was extremely wild! The ranged combat technique of the Law of Primal Chaos was like a torrential rain, being unleashed endlessly by Xia Fei despite its high energy consumption, practically throwing everything but the kitchen sink at the two Founders!

The tables had turned. The two Founders turned from besieging Xia Fei into taking a stance of passive defense against the Law Sage, running randomly about as they were chased by the repeated Law of Primal Chaos attacks, a bombardment that battered them badly!

This was the Law of Primal Chaos! The most unreasonable Law Power in the universe!

Even if Smile and Atrophy had Founder-tier cultivation, there was no way they could withstand such a crazy power! Helpless, the two Founders could only resort to evading it over and over again!

Radix was stunned for the longest time before he exclaimed in surprise, evidently very excited about it, “A Soul Mark! That’s the energy from a Soul Mark!”

“That’s right. This little young master’s superhuman talent has allowed him to actively trigger his Soul Power after his body was being pushed to the limit! This is no doubt the result of his talent and unremitting efforts, his endless desire to be victorious, as well as that fighting spirit of his that refuses to surrender.”

“Hosu! To think you’ve been here all this time?!” Radix was startled. This voice was very familiar; it belonged to the super expert that had sealed the Cosmic Gate all those years ago, Hosu!

“Yes, I’ve not departed since my return,” Hosu replied calmly.

Radix pouted his lips, a little discontented, “Given how dire the situation was just now, why didn’t you act? Had it not been for Xia Fei opening his Soul Mark in the desperate situation he was in, he might be in real trouble right now!”

Hosu did not share his sentiments, “It would have been very easy for me to intervene, but if I did that, would the little young master still have been able to miraculously open his Soul Mark like he has?”

Radix frowned, and did not say another word.

Hosu explained after a pause, “People often think that the miracles that Xia Fei keeps creating are due to his talent, but that’s not an accurate assessment. People who truly understand Xia Fei know that there are seas of warriors that have superb potential and talent, but the reason no one can keep up with Xia Fei’s pace is entirely because Xia Fei is a lot more persistent than everyone else! He has the stubbornness of a tenacious weed, a resolute mind that is as tough as steel!

“You’ve said it yourself before: although Xia Fei is of the master’s blood, Xia Fei possesses a craziness that the entire Aurora Clan lacked! What mainly propels him forward isn’t his heritage, but that personality of his that refuses to admit defeat!

“In such circumstances, the path that Xia Fei must take will definitely be different from our young master’s. Young master grew up in the spotlight with an illustrious family background, while Xia Fei is actually a nobody from Earth. He has never once experienced the glory that ought to be given to anyone of the Aurora Clan, and everything that Xia Fei has now is what he has struggled and earned with his own hands!”

Radix was stunned as he gasped, “Hosu, you finally got it!”

Hosu sighed, “That’s right. I’ve been mulling over these questions after what you told me the last time; Xia Fei is different from any other member of the Aurora Clan, and that might not be a bad thing, though I do still miss the elegance of our young master.”

Radix and Hosu’s conversation was being held in secret, and Xia Fei had no clue that it was transpiring. At this moment, Xia Fei was still unleashing the wild and incredible power of the Soul Mark, and this area of space had been transformed into a rain of arrows! It was a very powerful and imposing attack! The two Founders were being badly suppressed into a corner!

“Looks like the little young master is still not used to the changes that the Soul Power can bring forth. He’s expending the energy in his body recklessly right now,” Radix frowned.

Hosu responded, “Give him a little time. It’s only a matter of time before Xia Fei gets used to this particular transformation.”

Radix was worried. “But the situation he’s in right now isn’t great. Though such an intense attack had managed to suppress the two Founders, he doesn’t have the means to kill them! Xia Fei’s Soul Mark is still incomplete, and that means he will ultimately use up all this energy at some point. The fight isn’t looking too promising for him.”

Hosu responded in a low voice, “For the Soul Mark to consolidate its form, it still requires another qualitative leap, so let’s wait and see how things unfold.”

“Wait, so you’re still not intending to make a move?!” Radix was shocked.

Hosu mused, “Well, there’s no urgency for me to act this time. You seem to have forgotten that Xia Fei still has a Tree of Life.”

“Oh right!” Radix’s mouth hung agape as he blurted out, “So you mean to say you’ll let him break the cocoon and be reborn now? Isn’t the risk too great doing it this way? Xia Fei’s body had yet to reach its limit!”

Hosu softly answered, “Since the little young master had managed to open his Soul Mark early, then he will surely be able to break the cocoon! What, are you doubting Xia Fei?”

“Well…” Radix pondered as he gulped silently. Of course, an early activation of the Soul Mark and an early breaking of the cocoon to be reborn would definitely be greatly beneficial to Xia Fei, but the risk was too great!

Xia Fei did not specialize in breaking the cocoon and rebirth, and did not the powerful Xia Gucheng only manage to break through to the Founder tier after being on the brink of death?! When a warrior reached an insurmountable threshold, the only thing that could help with the breakthrough was to cross the threshold between life and death!

This was an unchanging rule of the universe!

It was just that Xia Fei, who had already experienced a rocket-like rise in progress, now had to greatly improve his chance of breaking the cocoon and being reborn!

…

The wild and unbridled attack continued as before. Xia Fei had no idea what the strange golden circle in his brain was for and was solely focused on utilizing the energy amidst the chaos. It was almost as if the energy was not being controlled, and if Xia Fei did not use it all up, it would only be a matter of time before it forced its way out of his body!

This suppression effect from the unending use of the Law of Primal Chaos shocked Xia Fei. The space around him had already turned completely dark and without light, having been repeatedly torn apart through the Law of Primal Chaos! The two formidable Founders were in a very sorry state after being on the receiving end of this crushing assault!

A true warrior would have top notch instincts, and his instincts were something that had never lost to anyone!

While dishing out this savage attack, Xia Fei had also attempted to comprehend this new power. Over the course of several minutes, Xia Fei actually managed to find the trick to it! He was slowly learning how to control this unbelievably violent power!

A portion of the source of this power came from inside him. The fiendish blade Nirvana had long been sapping the souls of the enemies it had killed, quietly collecting all that soul power and storing it in Xia Fei’s body.

Today, with the Soul Mark now in a half-open state, Xia Fei suddenly had the ability to use Soul Power, and so all those disparate souls had become the ammunition that he was using for his counterattack!

As time went by, Xia Fei could feel that the soul energy inside his body was running out, but he realized that there was still an even stronger body of energy stored in Nirvana! It was just that this sort of energy was ordered, and not in the least bit scattered. He had great difficulty trying to use it, as the energies were not exactly listening to Xia Fei’s commands.

Xia Fei began to panic a little. At this moment, he needed much more energy for him to maintain this wild attack. His eager desire to slay his enemies superseded everything, so Xia Fei began to recklessly test things, determined to tap into the disobedient energies that were inside the fiendish blade Nirvana!

This sequence of imperceptible actions was a challenge to Xia Fei, and calamitous to Radix!

“Good heavens, the little young master is too powerful! He wants to draw me out from within Nirvana!” Radix paled as he wailed loudly.

Radix was a powerful immortal soul, once being someone on par with Hosu. It was sheer coincidence that Radix became Xia Fei’s soul weapon, and now resided inside the fiendish blade Nirvana. The soul power that Xia Fei had detected was none other than Radix, and Xia Fei was about to draw him out and use him right now!

He had no idea that Radix would die completely if he no longer had any Soul Power!

“What?!” Hosu was stunned as he gasped in astonishment. “Xia Fei has actually mastered control over Soul Power so soon, and has initiated the process of Soul Searching? What a superb improvement! Looks like the little young master is already very close to breaking his cocoon and rebirthing! He shall attain Soul Power level 1 in no time at all!”

Radix’s voice was hoarse, “Hosu! Quick, come up with a solution! Xia Fei’s pull is becoming stronger and stronger! My soul will dissipate into nothingness if he tears me away from Nirvana!”

Hosu replied, “Do you really think Xia Fei is capable of consuming you, an immortal soul, from a soul weapon?! He had only just obtained his Soul Mark, after all!”

“Enough talk!” Radix was so anxious that the color on his face had drained, shouting, “He’s Xia Fei! Possessing an obstinacy that never gives up until he reaches his goal! Right now, the loose souls inside Nirvana are becoming fewer and fewer, and by the time Xia Fei runs out of Soul Power to draw from, he will surely regard me as energy for him to use up!”

Hosu was startled as he fell into deep thought.

Logically speaking, it was already a miracle that Xia Fei had been able to utilize Soul Power without his body being fully developed for it!

Right now, Xia Fei was creating an even greater miracle! He actually found a way to gather Soul Power! Furthermore, he was relentlessly attempting to consume Radix, like he was just energy!

That’s right, Radix had Soul Power, and as an ex-expert, Radix has a frightening amount of it! As a servant of the Aurora Clan, Radix already had come to terms with his mortality, but he was extremely unwilling to die at this stage!

To make matters worse, Xia Fei was even crazier than Radix! He was even more unwilling to let the two Founders off!
