The beautiful young lady could not understand how Ye Xiao managed to break the Sly Sealing Formation.
"Even if he were to use some sort of trick or some other means to break it, it should still be impossible. Unless..."
Suddenly a bold idea popped up in the young lady's mind. She looked at Ye Xiao with a shocked gaze as she asked, "You have... Divine Soul!"
Ye Xiao was stunned. He never thought that the young lady in front of him could guess it correctly but after thinking for a few moments, he thought it was normal for her to guess.
He could not see through her strength, it means she was an Immortal. Who knows she was sealed here for how many thousands of years. She is definitely not weak even among immortals, She might be an Immortal King. So it was normal if she knew the ways to break the formation.
If this really was true then it was completely justified for her to guess that he has the Divine Soul.
Since she had already guessed, Ye Xiao did not hide it any longer. He confirmed her guess by nodding his head and saying, "Yes!"
The young lady was surprised to the extent where she could not say anything for a while. Even in the Upper Realm, there are very few people among trillions of Immortals who could awaken Divine Soul and evolve their sea of consciousness into Divine Sea.
It was really shocking for a little cultivator of the Lower Realm to awaken the Divine Soul. But it also proved how shocking Ye Xiao's talent is. If he were to be placed among the talents of the Upper Realm, if not among the top ten, he will definitely rank in the top hundred in terms of his talent.
It has to know that this was already a very terrifying evaluation she has given to Ye Xiao. In the Upper Realm, there is no lack of geniuses. There are trillions of them and he can rank top hundred among those trillions of geniuses, how shocking his talent is to be able to gain such evaluation by the young lady.
She evaluated him like this not only because of his Divine Soul but also because of his cultivation.
It has to know that spirit energy in the Lower Realm is far weaker and thinner than in the Upper Realm but even so, Ye Xiao was able to cultivate to the Fifth Stage of the Martial Emperor Realm at twenty.
Well, she did not know that Ye Xiao was able to cultivate up to the Martial Ancestor Realm in only four years otherwise she would not even dare to evaluate Ye Xiao's talent.
She took a deep breath and said, "Have you burned them?"
Ye Xiao again nodded his head seeing which she took a deep breath and said in low but voice, "I don't know for how many years I have been sealed here. I have to go back to the Upper Realm as soon as possible."
It was as if she was talking to herself. Thinking about her past, she sighed deeply as a look of regret as well as deep hatred and anger appeared in her eyes.
Ye Xiao did not know what she was thinking. He was very curious about this young lady. After struggling in his heart for a few moments, he finally decided to ask.
"Cough, cough! Can you tell me why were you sealed here?" Ye Xiao finally asked what was bothering him for a long time.
The young lady looked at Ye Xiao coldly. Ye Xiao felt a chill running in his back as sweat appeared on his forehead. It was not like he was afraid of her, it was just that he can feel he did not even have the strength to put up any sort of struggle in front of this young lady if she were to attack him.
If she decided to kill him, she can kill him with a flick of her finger. This was what Ye Xiao felt when he looked at the young lady. She is definitely far stronger than the Immortal Giant he fought in the Secret Realm. He has a feeling that she might be even stronger than the old man that accepted Lin Hao as his disciple.
Ye Xiao could not confirm it as he was very weak at the moment. He was far from evaluating an Immortal's strength. This was all that Ye Xiao felt.
After a while, the young lady finally said, "My name is Xue Xiaofei. You might have already guessed that I am an Immortal from the Upper Realm, right?"
Ye Xiao nodded his head and the young lady continued, "Almost ten thousand years ago, I was already able to cultivate to the Immortal Emperor Realm."
The moment she said, Ye Xiao sucked in a cold breath. He guessed she might have already cultivated to the Immortal King but even he did not dare to guess that she was already an Immortal Emperor.
Currently, Ye Xiao was only a Martial Ancestor realm martial artist but fate has already brought him in contact with two Immortal Emperors. It has to know that Immortal Emperors are someone who stands at the peak of the Upper Realm.
He has already guessed that, just like how rare Martial Saints are in the Lower Realm, Immortal Emperors are the same in the Upper Realm. There should not be many Immortal Emperors but he has already come in contact with two Immortal Emperors when he is still at the Martial Ancestor Realm.
The young lady did not stop, she continued to say, "I am the Sect Leader of a sect called Sky Martial Sect. One day, when I was pondering over how to increase my cultivation and breakthrough to the Middle Stage of Immortal Emperor Realm, I heard the news about a secret realm where I can gain the treasures to increase my cultivation. I will not go into details. It is just in that secret realm, I made a terrifying enemy who already a Late Immortal Emperor. After coming out from the Secret Realm, he ambushed me and my people. A fierce fight broke out and in the end, only a few of my comrades were able to escape. My other comrades including me were captured by him."
"Although he captured us, for some reason, he did not kill us. He brought us to the Lower Realm and sealed us here with the help of an Immortal Formation Grandmaster."
"Sky Sealing Formation is known as a devilish formation as it could seal anything. He not only sealed us here, he told the Immortal Formation Master to lay down the Sky Sealing Formation in a way where it could use us as its source of energy."
"Since you are a formation master, you already know that every formation needs a source of energy otherwise it will instantly crumble. That vicious man used me and my people as the source of energy for the Sky Sealing Formation."
"As a result, everyone's cultivation started to fall down. If this continued, all of us would have died without a doubt but, in the secret realm, I got my hands on a strange treasure, a black coffin. This black coffin is a Top Grade Immortal Rank Treasure. Inside the coffin, time is stopped. It is like a spatial ring's space where time does not even exist."
"I told about the effect of this Black Coffin to my people. If one were to sleep in the black coffin, one's time will also stop and this Sky Sealing Formation will obviously lose its effect on that corresponding person. When my people heard me, they stubbornly continued to tell me to sleep in the Black Coffin. This way, I can live and in the future after gaining my freedom, I can take revenge for my people. I did not want to sleep in the coffin at that time because it is the same as abandoning my people but they forced me to do so. I have not choice but to sleep."
"Well, if I were to not sleep in the Black Coffin at that time, it would definitely be a foolish decision. So after thinking of this, I used the Black Coffin and preserved my cultivation as well as my life, waiting for the when someone will open the coffin."
Saying till here, she turned her eyes from Ye Xiao to the black coffin. She looked at it with a complicated gaze It was as if she was struggling over some matter. Then she again looked at Ye Xiao and her gaze became slightly warm.
Seeing this, Ye Xiao was surprised. What exactly was this lady thinking that made her feel so many emotions at once. Before when she looked at him, her gaze was obviously cold but at this moment, why he felt warmth in her gaze? It was as if after struggling for a long time, she finally excepted the decision forced on her by her family.
Well, this was what Ye Xiao felt but he did not ask.
