The soul gem is about the size of a thumb, and its entire body is as black as ink, like a small black hole.
Xiao Yi held it in his palm, and suddenly a cold and biting breath spread throughout his body.
At the same time, a strange and incomparable power emitted from inside the gem, as if it was about to swallow Xiao Yi's soul.
Even though Xiao Yi's willpower was extremely firm, he was still a little lost at this moment and wanted to put his soul into it immediately.
"What a terrifying power, even I almost lost it." Xiao Yi couldn't help being shocked, his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
This soul gem contains a strange magical power that can make people unable to extricate themselves and create a strong desire to refine it.
Even Xiao Yi could hardly resist this temptation.
"If this gem has autonomous consciousness, it will definitely be able to easily turn others into slaves. Fortunately, I have the blood of Dream, so I won't be led by it." Xiao Yi couldn't help but sigh.
However, the weirder this gem was, the more curious Xiao Yi became about it.
Therefore, even though he knew it contained magic power, Xiao Yi still planned to use his soul to explore it to see if it contained any secrets.
Buzz.
The next moment, Xiao Yi carefully probed his soul into the soul gem. In order to prevent accidents from happening, he even activated his dream eyes to guard him.
In an instant, Xiao Yi's soul appeared in a dark space, filled with a strange power.
This power made Xiao Yi's soul feel extremely excited, and he wanted to devour them immediately.
"Is this the essence of power contained in the soul gems? As long as I swallow them, I can change the nature of my soul!" Xiao Yi's eyes were extremely fiery, but he suppressed the desire in his heart and did not swallow them for the time being.
Because he sensed that there were other things hidden deep in the dark space.
Rumble.
At this moment, the space in front of him suddenly trembled violently, as if a big earthquake had occurred.
The next moment, a black stone platform dozens of feet high emerged from the void and stood in front of Xiao Yi, with mysterious patterns carved on it.
"Hey! This is a divine pattern! And only an extremely powerful divine pattern master can carve it out." Xiao Yi's figure suddenly trembled, his eyes full of shock.
You must know that divine pattern masters are extremely rare, even in the entire universe, there are not many of them.
The person who can carve out the divine patterns in front of him must have a much higher level of divine patterns than Xiao Yi, and may even be the legendary emperor-level divine pattern master.
That's why Xiao Yi was so surprised.
He suspected that this soul gem was left behind by this mysterious Divine Pattern Master, and was later obtained by the Peng Clan Emperor.
Sizzle.
Just when Xiao Yi was shocked, the divine patterns engraved on the stone platform suddenly burst out with dazzling divine light, turning into spiritual marks and flying toward Xiao Yi's eyebrows.
Xiao Yi could sense that these mental imprints were not dangerous, so he let them sink into his mind.
"Only divine pattern masters can decipher these spiritual imprints. It seems that they are specially reserved for divine pattern masters." Xiao Yi murmured to himself.
Buzz.
The next moment, he activated his divine power of interpretation and began to interpret the contents of the spiritual imprint.
It took a long moment for him to fully interpret these contents, and his eyes couldn't help but show excitement.
"So it turns out that this Soul Gem was actually left behind by the Holy Emperor, the number one Divine Pattern Master a million years ago. As long as you get it, you have a chance to gain his inheritance. Hehe, the Peng Clan Emperor really gave me one.
What a great gift." Xiao Yi said with an excited expression.
Just now, Xiao Yi got a lot of useful information from those spiritual imprints.
Millions of years ago, in order to fight against the invasion of ghost creatures, most of the powerful emperors of that era participated in the war.
Even the most powerful Divine Pattern Master at the time, the Holy Emperor, entered the Battlefield of the Gods.
His strength is among the best among all the great emperors, and he controls all kinds of terrifying divine patterns.
Ordinary Ghost Road Emperor is completely vulnerable to him.
Unfortunately, in the end, he was besieged by seven or eight of the top Ghost Road Emperors, completely destroyed physically and mentally, and fell into the secret realm of the sky pattern in front of him.
However, before he died, he also left his inheritance here, waiting for the destined person to inherit it.
The soul gem that Xiao Yi obtained is one of the tokens.
"No wonder this secret realm is called Tianwen Secret Realm. It was originally to commemorate the Holy Emperor. You can imagine how high his reputation was back then." Xiao Yi had a look of emotion on his face.
As powerful as the Holy Emperor, he also fell in that battle.
It is enough to show how terrifying the ghostly creatures are.
If that kind of catastrophe strikes again, the entire universe may be destroyed at any time.
"Since I have obtained the Holy Emperor's token, it means that I am destined to him, so I must try my best to obtain his inheritance." Xiao Yi thought in his heart.
Although he now controls many powerful divine patterns, compared with the inheritance of the Holy Emperor, he is definitely nothing.
If he can obtain the inheritance of the Holy Emperor and his attainments in divine patterns, he will definitely be able to reach a higher level, and even become a being at the level of the Holy Emperor.
This made him feel excited just thinking about it.
You must know that the power of divine patterns is extremely terrifying. If used well, it can even kill enemies by leapfrogging and create various miracles.
Therefore, Xiao Yi was naturally unwilling to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
…
After half a cup of tea, Xiao Yi's soul retreated from the soul gem.
He has figured out that this soul gem was left behind by the Holy Emperor and does no harm to him.
Therefore, he planned to find a place to refine it and change the nature of his soul.
"This sacred mountain is quite safe for the time being. I will stay in seclusion here for a while. When my strength improves, I will go find Fairy Qiuxia and Xi. I wonder how they are doing now?" Xiao Yi frowned.
He frowned slightly, feeling an ominous premonition well up in his heart for some reason.
If this secret realm was not integrated with another secret realm, with Guan Xi's strength, not many people would be able to do anything to her.
But now, that's not necessarily the case.
Because many wizards have already entered the realm of gods and are many times stronger than before. Even Shang Guan Xi cannot guarantee his own safety.
"I promised Shangguan Tie that I would take good care of Shangguan Xi. If anyone dares to hurt her, I will definitely repay him a hundred times." Xiao Yi clenched his fists and a cold light shot out of his eyes.
