Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 840: Beginning to Lead

Duanmu Palace Master glared at Wind Hall Master.

Wind Hall Master shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Duanmu, this isn’t your first time guiding the way."

"I think you should know that whether to go to the Central Region, the decision rests with Xiao Yi."

"I know." Duanmu Palace Master replied angrily.

Then, he looked at Xiao Yi beside him.

Xiao Yi was frowning.

Duanmu Palace Master said sternly, "Xiao Yi, since I’ve promised to guide you, I won’t go back on my word."

"I won’t deliberately hinder you, I’m just reminding you to be more cautious and consider carefully."

"Thank you for your kindness, Duanmu Palace Master." Xiao Yi nodded and smiled.

"I remember when I first saw Duanmu Palace Master that day in Wind Returning City."

"Duanmu Palace Master told me I should go to a broader, more exciting place."

"And indeed, I want to see the Central Region."

Xiao Yi’s expression was extremely serious.

Duanmu Palace Master stared at Xiao Yi for a few seconds, then nodded, "Alright, since you’ve made up your mind, I’ll guide you."

"But before that, I must tell you about the situation over there in the Central Region."

Saying this, Duanmu Palace Master laughed heartily, "Even if you’re in a hurry, it doesn’t hurt to spend this hour."

"You can’t just go to the Central Region foolishly without knowing anything."

Xiao Yi nodded and said, "I appreciate Duanmu Palace Master’s guidance."

"Hmm." Duanmu Palace Master nodded, "First of all, the Central Region is the core area of the entire Flame Dragon Continent, I won’t elaborate on that."

"Secondly, the Flame Dragon Continent is vast, unimaginably vast."

"Besides our Wind Saint Territory, there are countless territories."

"Wind Saint Territory is just one of them." freewēbnoveℓ.com

"These countless territories are centered around the Central Region, distributed around it."

"At every moment, there are Heavenly Talents and Martial Artists from all regions heading towards the Central Region they yearn for."

"Perhaps, right now, in some region, there’s a senior like me, telling a young generation genius like you about the Central Region, preparing to guide them."

"Doing exactly what we’re doing now."

Xiao Yi smiled, but in the next second, his expression changed to surprise and then joy.

"Duanmu Palace Master means that the Central Region gathers the top Heavenly Talents and Martial Artists from various regions of the Flame Dragon Continent."

"These talents and martial artists, just like me, are heading towards the Central Region."

"Hmm." Duanmu Palace Master smiled, "The Central Region is undoubtedly fascinating."

"It’s a place envied and blood-stirring for countless young talents."

"But." Duanmu Palace Master’s smile abruptly froze, replaced by a look of solemnity.

"Do you know how many of these top Heavenly Talents and Martial Artists truly survive to reach the Central Region?"

"Less than half."

"And do you know how many, after arriving, can return with their lives, even though they were famous in their regions?"

Xiao Yi chuckled softly, "Why does the Central Region sound like a man-eating land from Duanmu Palace Master’s words?"

"Man-eating land?" Duanmu Palace Master sneered, "No, it’s a bloody Asura Purgatory."

"Endless slaughter, endless battles; with talents and experts from across the Flame Dragon Continent congregating, it’s like panning for gold in the waves, and those who grow there are ruthless people."

Xiao Yi nodded, silent.

Duanmu Palace Master continued, "Do you remember Old Man Liu?"

"Senior Liu Cangmang?" Xiao Yi frowned.

"Hmm." Duanmu Palace Master said, "He was once a legendary figure in the Wind Saint Territory, a supreme genius once famed throughout the region."

"But now? You’ve seen him, in your eyes, what kind of person is he now?"

Xiao Yi frowned.

He had indeed been surprised when he learned from Duanmu that the deacon in Wind Control City’s branch hall was Liu Cangmang.

Because Liu Cangmang was indeed a famous supreme genius.

But when he saw him at the branch hall in Wind Control City.

Xiao Yi didn’t see the edge belonging to a martial artist in him, only a kind of decline.

Duanmu Palace Master said solemnly, "Once, like you, he was in the spotlight of the Wind Saint Territory."

"He had all the arrogance and pride that a genius should have."

"He once vanished from the Wind Saint Territory, yes, he went to the Central Region."

"But after coming back, he became the way he is now."

Xiao Yi opened his mouth and asked, "Duanmu Palace Master, have you also been to the Central Region?"

"Yes." Duanmu Palace Master nodded.

"Back then, Old Man Feng and I roamed the Central Region."

Xiao Yi smiled, "Didn’t Duanmu Palace Master and Wind Hall Master return safely?"

"We did return." Duanmu Palace Master said solemnly, "But do you know how many times I saved Old Man Feng?"

"How many times did Old Man Feng save me?"

"In countless life-or-death situations, had we failed even once, there wouldn’t be the Duanmu Palace Master or Wind Hall Master in the Wind Saint Territory now."

Xiao Yi still smiled, "I think Duanmu Palace Master has roughly finished introducing the Central Region to me."

"Guide me, then."

"You..." Duanmu Palace Master’s voice choked.

He said earlier that he wouldn’t hinder Xiao Yi, only tell him about the Central Region and remind him.

But his words still carried a hint of retention and obstruction.

"Never mind." Duanmu Palace Master waved his sleeve angrily.

"Since you don’t appreciate it, I won’t say more."

"Sit cross-legged, I’ll prepare to guide you."

"Thank you, Duanmu Palace Master." Xiao Yi saluted and sat cross-legged.

"Calm your mind and listen to my instructions." Duanmu said sternly.

"Yes." Xiao Yi responded.

"First of all." Duanmu Palace Master said in a deep voice, "Guiding the way is not about leading the way."

"Instead, I will imprint a guiding rule force within Heaven and Earth Martial Arts."

"When the time comes, you will follow this rule force to proceed and reach the Central Region."

"No matter how vast the hundred-thousand mountains and ten-thousand danger zones you pass through; as long as they exist under this sky, that rule force will exist and won’t dissipate."

"By pursuing it, you won’t get lost within."

"But." Duanmu Palace Master paused, "This rule force exists in the heavens and the earth."

"Only a Heavenly Extreme Realm Expert can sense the rule force imprinted in the world."

"And you, though your combat power is amazing, as far as I perceive, you’re only at Earth Extreme Ninth Layer, right?"

"Yes." Xiao Yi nodded, "But I haven’t broken through to the Heavenly Extreme Realm yet. How can I sense that rule force..."

Xiao Yi’s voice just fell.

A strong arm rested on his shoulder.

From the arm, a continuous force transmitted at a terrifying speed.

"Duanmu Palace Master, what is this?" Xiao Yi was startled.

Duanmu Palace Master smiled, "That’s why I need you to break through to the Heavenly Extreme Realm first."
