Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 655: Have to Go

The mask was slowly removed.

Xiao Yi’s handsome face was revealed.

"Indeed," the Hall Master immediately smiled, "I really did not guess wrong."

"Hmm?" Xiao Yi frowned and then realized, "The Hall Master did not have absolute certainty, he was merely bluffing me."

"Of course, I was not sure. It was just a guess," the Hall Master laughed.

Xiao Yi shook his head, gave a wry smile, and put away the Ghost Mask.

In fact, long ago, the Hall Master could have easily uncovered his identity.

Merely through the Demon Hunting Orders he issued, one could trace it back to the Xiao Family and then know his identity.

However, the Hall Master had never looked it up, giving Xiao Yi enough respect.

Of course, Xiao Yi previously needed another identity, only to protect the Xiao Family and certain people.

But now, this identity was no longer so important.

Nevertheless, Xiao Yi was always cautious, and if not necessary, he naturally would not reveal his identity as Yi Xiao.

"In fact, I had many speculations before," the Hall Master looked at Xiao Yi, his eyes filled with satisfaction and admiration growing more intense.

"Among twins, there are many coincidences."

"But I never dared to be sure, nor did I dare to believe that the twins could be the same person."

Many had speculated that the twins were the same person.

But, the words "Fire Control Beast" dispelled those thoughts.

The Hall Master, undoubtedly, was the most knowledgeable person in the Eastern Domain.

Even having lived to such an age, he was a deep and calculating "Old Fox."

His level of thought was far beyond that of outsiders.

What he pondered was also far deeper than others.

The words "Fire Control Beast" were not enough to make him dismiss the idea.

The only thing that made him uncertain was that the final fact was too astonishing.

Twins, each one a unique monster; each one’s talent could shock the world.

If the talents of both were combined in one person, how terrifying would that supreme monster be?

Even the Hall Master dared not be sure of this, nor dare to speculate.

It was also the reason he had never dared to be certain.

At this moment, the Hall Master stared directly at Xiao Yi and said, "No wonder back then your name of Purple Flame shook the Royal Capital, yet you still did not show your true face."

"No wonder a few months ago your name as twins resounded throughout the continent, yet you still refused to take off the mask."

Xiao Yi’s battle in the Royal Capital had shaken the entire city, and the Hall Master naturally knew about it.

Xiao Yi’s grudges with the Flame Martial King and others, including the matters of Elder Yi in the Royal Capital years ago, were also clear to the Hall Master.

"Heh." Xiao Yi gave a light smile, having already taken off and put away the Ghost Mask.

Now conversing with the Hall Master without the mask, he felt not the slightest discomfort.

The Hall Master was one of the few people he was willing to trust, to cherish.

The Hall Master looked at Xiao Yi with satisfaction, that satisfaction not only because of Xiao Yi’s talent but even more because of his character.

"Alas," the Hall Master suddenly sighed.

"I know the reason for your concealment, but you have been wronging yourself for a long time."

"Wronged?" Xiao Yi smiled lightly.

"For Extreme Realm Martial Artists, with Heaven and Earth Martial Arts imbued, life is long."

"But for ordinary martial artists, lifespan is just that."

"My elders from the Xiao Family are of old age, I hope they live a bit more at ease."

"A bit of suffering, it doesn’t matter."

"By the way," Xiao Yi changed the subject, "Hall Master, I just remembered something."

"Unable to travel to the Central Region from the Eastern Domain due to a barrier, that started after the battle in Ancient Times, right?"

"As martial artists of the Flame Dragon Continent, didn’t any strong warriors come back from the Central Region to help?"

"As the oldest force on the continent, I believe the Demon Hunting Hall exists in the Central Region too."

The Hall Master shook his head and said, "Our martial artists here, cannot go to the Central Region."

"Warriors from the Central Region cannot come here either."

"As I mentioned earlier, the real outbreak of that battle was in the Central Region."

"So, the closer to the Central Region, the more severe the aftermath, and the more violent and dangerous the spatial turbulence becomes."

"Our side has to pass through spatial turbulence, the intensity of which gradually increases."

"And those coming from the Central Region face the most violent, most dangerous aspect straight away."

The Hall Master paused, considered for a moment.

After a long silence, he continued, "Exactly what happened, I am not quite sure."

"Ultimately, this was millions of years ago, and even the scrolls left in the Demon Hunting Hall only give a fragmentary account."

"Anyway, to go to the Central Region, one must pass through spatial turbulence, and only experts in the Heavenly Extreme Realm are confident of doing so."

"And from the Central Region, thinking of coming over, even Extreme Realm experts can’t manage it,"

"They must pass through a spatial turbulence that seems to have merged with the Heaven and Earth Martial Arts of the entire Central Region, exceptionally solid and exceptionally dangerous."

"Can’t make it over?" Xiao Yi furrowed his brows.

"Alright, let’s get back to your matter," the Hall Master’s expression grew solemn.

"I quite agree with you going to the Central Region."

"Your supreme talent, if I forcefully keep you in the Eastern Domain, would only be stifling your potential."

"Only by going to the Central Region can you truly bring out your own brilliance."

"However, the spatial turbulence is extremely dangerous, practice well, and set out when you reach the Earth Extreme Ninth Layer."

"No," Xiao Yi shook his head, "I will be setting off in a few days."

"So soon?" The Hall Master frowned, then sighed in the next second.

"Never mind, with your character, once you’ve decided on something, I’m afraid no one can stop you."

"If I previously agreed to your going to the Central Region with some reservations, now, I’m completely reassured."

"Oh?" Xiao Yi showed a puzzled look.

The Hall Master laughed heartily and said, "Twins, being the same person, so monstrous, what others can’t do, you definitely can."

"Most importantly, you possess the Heaven and Earth Supreme Treasure, the Heavenly Mechanism Sacred Plate."

"Plus, you are protected by the four strongest flames in the world and also practice the Body Refinement Dao."

"With your current strength, there will be danger in going to the Central Region, but it shouldn’t be a big problem."

"Moreover, you have to go."

"Have to go?" Xiao Yi was slightly puzzled.

The Hall Master answered, "Here, the Heaven and Earth Martial Arts have mostly been annihilated, except for the last remaining incomplete parts."

"The power of the Heavenly Dao doesn’t exist here on the mainland."

"As for the strongest flames that you practice, in the entire Eastern Domain, there are only four kinds, all possessed by you."

"No one can acquire more of the strongest flames."

"Because the fifth, sixth, or even more of the strongest flames can only be found if you go to the Central Region."

"The Eastern Domain does not have the Heaven and Earth Rules power for other strongest flames."

"Also, some top items, like Poison Evil, Ice Evil, and so on, or higher level Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures etcetera, are not available here."

"You can only grow by going to the Central Region."

Xiao Yi nodded and said, "In a few days, I plan to set out."

"However, there’s Senior Divine Martial King and Senior Swordswoman..."

The Divine Martial King planned to let him take charge of the East Sea Fortress.

Senior Swordswoman also intended to make him the Guardian of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect.

The Hall Master waved his hand and said, "Don’t worry about the Divine Martial King."

"As for that girl Swordswoman..." the Hall Master hesitated.

"For thousands of years, all Extreme Realm experts in our Eastern Domain have longed for the breakthrough to the Heavenly Extreme Realm."

"The name ’Sky-splitting’ of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect is for this reason."

"In the Sky-splitting Sword Sect, nearly every Peak of Extreme Realm ancestor tried to forcefully close the Life and Death Barrier, or even directly confront the spatial turbulence."

"But without exception, they either failed in the Life and Death Barrier and died,"

"Or were murdered by the violent spatial power in that spatial turbulence."

"Those two Sword Sect elders, who cherished her the most and my good friends, perished for this reason."

"If she knows you’re going to the Central Region, she might refuse."

"Alas." Speaking of the woman, the Hall Master sighed repeatedly.

"She has been at her current strength for two hundred years already."

"With her talent, even if placed in the Ancient Times, she would be among the most monstrous."

"It’s just that, over these centuries, for the sake of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect, she’s suffered."

"She has been waiting for a new Sect Guardian so she can close the Life and Death Barrier or even confront that piece of spatial turbulence."

"Senior Swordswoman doesn’t have certainty, does she?" Xiao Yi frowned.

"Of course not," the Hall Master said solemnly, "that spatial turbulence, except for a true Heavenly Extreme Realm expert, no one has assurance."

"It’s only because you, kid, have various strong protective items that I am reassured."

"I’ll go and talk to Senior Swordswoman myself," Xiao Yi said gravely.

"Mm." The Hall Master nodded.

Just then, outside the room, a knocking sound arose.

The Hall Master looked at Xiao Yi and didn’t say "come in," but directly asked, "What’s the matter?"

Outside, the Demon Hunting Hall staff did not enter but respectfully said, "Reporting to the Hall Master, the Valley Master of Medicine King Valley requests to see Vice Hall Master Yi Xiao."
