This would only cause more trouble.
Xiao Shi felt that if he was Xiang Zizhen, he would definitely incite others to insist that he was a wolf and kill him first. He clearly had the chance to give this matter a final verdict, but he only listed himself as a suspect and did not directly condemn him.
This did not fit the behavior of a werewolf.
Secondly, it was the information that Wu Muzhen had discovered.
Logically speaking, with the concealment abilities of these few members of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect, it was impossible for them to be found by the lord. If they had been found so easily, Wu Muzhen would not have needed such a high energy value when he used the Heavenly Mystery Eye to investigate their whereabouts.
Since he had not been found by the lord, how could the lord instigate Xiang Zizhen to defect?
For the sake of caution, Xiao Shi simply entered the Heavenly Mystery Palace. He summoned Wu Muzhen again. “I need to know Xiang Zizhen’s information, especially his personality.” Xiao Shi said in a low voice.
Wu Muzhen thought for a moment. He reported the information he had previously found about Xiang Zizhen truthfully. “Xiang Zizhen was taken in as a disciple by that priest five years ago. Apart from having a very high commanding ability, this person’s talent is also very powerful. His intelligence and talent are also extraordinary.
“From the feedback of the Heavenly Mystery Eye, he is absolutely loyal to the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect and has always treated the members of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect sincerely.
“He’s a good leader. Be it these Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect’s members or that priest, they all trust him very much.”
Xiao Shi frowned at this. In that case, the possibility of Xiang Zizhen being a wolf had decreased again. He could choose not to believe the others. However, what the Heavenly Mystery Eye saw could not be fake.
If Xiang Zizhen was not a wolf, Xiao Shi would not have any better clues.
“A large part of the reason why 1 can’t find the key to the problem now is because my cultivation level is insufficient. My understanding of soul power and spiritual sense is not enough. I can only deduce from the phenomenon on the surface. I can’t deduce from Qin Mo’s death.
“For example… How did Qin Mo die? How did the murderer kill him silently? 1 only know that he died from a soul attack, but I don’t know the exact situation.”
Xiao Shi gradually realized that the most important thing for him now was to break through to the Martial Soul Realm first. Only by having enough knowledge and understanding of the Martial Soul Realm could he obtain more clues and information.
Thinking of this, Xiao Shi temporarily suppressed his thoughts about this matter. He placed his attention on breaking through to the Martial Soul Realm. In his mind, the follow-up cultivation method related to the Red Tiger lineage that he had obtained from Qin Mo earlier began to appear.
He was surprised to discover that what he possessed currently was not only the cultivation method of the Martial Soul Realm. It also included the subsequent cultivation methods of the Martial Demon Realm and the Sage Realm.
Which meant, he did not lack a main cultivation technique in the entire three intermediate realms. However, he was still unable to check the subsequent cultivation methods of the Martial Demon Realm and the Sage Realm.
He felt as if three rooms had appeared in his mind. One of the rooms contained the cultivation method of the Martial Soul Realm. The other room contained the cultivation technique of the Martial Demon Realm. In the last room was the cultivation method of the Sage Realm.
He could not enter the last two rooms yet, so he could only enter the first room where the Martial Soul Realm’s cultivation method was stored.
Buzz!
Soon, Xiao Shi had a clear understanding of everything in the room.
“The most important thing for the Red Tiger lineage to cultivate in the Martial Soul Realm is to form the Red Tiger Soul. In fact, in the cultivation of the three lower realms of the Martial Dao, it has already formed a Red Tiger Body that can accommodate souls.
“Since 1 had a solid foundation, what I’ve been lacking is mainly the method to form the Red Tiger Soul.”
Xiao Shi took a deep breath. Now that he had grasped the method to form the Red Tiger Soul, he immediately followed this cultivation method. He began to construct the Red Tiger Soul.
The Martial Soul Realm was divided into three stages. Soul awakening, spiritual sense, and Life Spirit. What Xiao Shi wanted to do now was to awaken his soul.
Roar!!
A deep tiger roar reverberated in his mind. This was an aggressive tiger roar. It even carried a portion of Xiao Shi’s blood force. Under this huge tiger roar, Xiao Shi’s entire soul felt as if it was being torn apart. He did not know what the Martial Soul Realm was like under the other systems.
However, the Martial Soul Realm of the Red Tiger lineage could only use this method to form the Red Tiger Soul. Under the intense pain of his soul, Xiao Shi could clearly feel that something was different about his soul. “Let’s keep going!” He used the Red Tiger Roar again to attack the soul.
Apart from the unbearable pain of ordinary people, there was also a huge risk in this process. Once his soul could not withstand it and was destroyed, his soul would directly dissipate.
However, Xiao Shi’s soul was extremely tenacious. He had the powerful support of the Heavenly Mystery Palace and the Myriad Treasure Pagoda’s pagoda spirit. This was also an important reason why he dared to use his blood technique to attack his soul.
Ordinary people would definitely not dare to be as bold as him. Often, the greater the risk, the more shocking the gains.
Xiao Shi knew that as long as he could withstand the attack of the blood technique, then, the Red Tiger Soul he formed would have the power of a blood technique. To a certain extent, it was equivalent to fusing the blood technique into the Red Tiger Soul, becoming the cornerstone for building the Red Tiger Soul.
The Blood Technique was a powerful technique unique to the Blood Martial Realm. Although every martial artist in the Blood Martial Realm could create their own exclusive blood technique, there were very few people who could do it.
The difference in strength between a Blood Martial Realm cultivator with a blood technique and a Blood Martial Realm cultivator without a blood technique was even greater. When Xiao Shi was in the Blood Martial Realm, blood techniques had always been his powerful killing move.
It was only when facing a powerful Martial Soul Realm enemy that its lethality was greatly reduced.
As long as he stepped into the Martial Soul Realm and attached his soul power to the blood technique, he could also increase the power of the blood technique. This was the usual method of all Martial Soul Realm experts.
By adding soul power to his attack, his attack would increase by a level. But how could this additional effect compare to fusing the blood technique into the Red Tiger Soul?
Once he succeeded, each of his soul power possessed the characteristics and power of a blood technique. When the time came, he would attach it to other attacks.
Just thinking about it made Xiao Shi excited. However, the prerequisite was that he had to withstand the impact of the blood technique on his soul.
In an instant, Xiao Shi’s soul had already turned blood-red. His face was as pale as paper. The pain in the soul was completely incomparable to the pain in the body. Fortunately, although his soul was constantly injured, there was no risk of shattering.
There was not even a crack.
Such a strong soul was even stronger than many souls at the awakening stage! This also made Xiao Shi deeply feel the powerful enhancement brought by the Heavenly Mystery Palace and the Myriad Treasure Pagoda’s pagoda spirit.
Unknowingly, his soul had already been enhanced to this strength. This also made him no longer have any worries. He attacked the soul with blood techniques even more unscrupulously.
Roar!!
When the huge tiger roar exploded in his mind again, a tiger’s roar sounded from his soul. It sounded like the echo of the tiger’s roar. However, Xiao Shi could clearly distinguish the difference between the two tiger roars.
The first tiger roar came from his blood technique. The last tiger roar sounded from his soul. Under the roar of the tiger, Xiao Shi’s soul seemed to have woken up. If his soul was in a deep sleep previously, then at this moment, his soul was like waking up from a deep sleep.
This was Soul awakening!
With the awakening of his soul, waves of blood-colored soul power kept being born in Xiao Shi’s mind. It gathered around his soul and pieced together with it to form the shape of a red tiger.
Red Tiger Soul!
Furthermore, it was a blood-colored Red Tiger Soul. Not only was its color different from ordinary Red Tiger Souls, Xiao Shi’s Red Tiger Soul was still in a roaring state under the integration of the blood technique..
