Chapter 180: Against the Heavens Technique
"Tell me, what do you want to do?"
In the room, Li Xiaojun held Ye Qinxian by her neck, as if lifting a dead dog.
"Senior, I-I only noticed that Madam has cultivation talent, so I wanted to take her as my disciple…" Ye Qinxian struggled to speak, gasping for air.
She could only say that; if she admitted she could absorb this senior’s root bones essence, she would probably be killed on the spot.
"I see you are not being honest at all. It seems I need to teach you a lesson before you speak."
Soon, miserable cries echoed in the room.
However, no matter how loud the sounds were, they couldn’t reach the outside.
Sound travels through substances; if there is no medium for those waves to travel through, there is no sound.
A soundproof formation is just that kind of thing.
"Tell me, what exactly do you want to do? Don’t think I will believe what you just said," Li Xiaojun asked coldly.
"I-I really discovered Madam has cultivation talent, so I…"
"It seems you still aren’t being honest. Then don’t blame me for Soul Searching!"
Li Xiaojun said fiercely.
When he was in the Earth Immortal realm, he could Soul Search the souls of Integration stage cultivators.
Now that he’s in the Heavenly Immortal realm, he should be able to Soul Search the souls of Great Ascension stage cultivators.
Hearing that Li Xiaojun wanted to Soul Search, Ye Qinxian’s face changed, but she quickly regained her composure.
She knew that for Soul Searching, one must be several realms higher than the other.
As a Great Ascension stage cultivator, even against a great emperor, she couldn’t be Soul Searched.
But the next moment, she was terrified.
She realized that the man before her had unfathomable cultivation and had instantly broken through her soul defenses.
"Wait, wait, wait, I’ll talk, I’ll talk."
Ye Qinxian got scared.
If she were Soul Searched, she would be destroyed and turn into a fool.
"Is it too late to talk now?" Li Xiaojun snorted coldly.
"However, if you cooperate with my Soul Search, I can guarantee not to harm your soul."
Li Xiaojun decided not to go too far.
He had already noticed this woman; she seemed to have a deep grudge against the Yu Hua Divine Dynasty!
So, sparing her life could help him assist Tuoba Ye in overthrowing the Yu Hua Divine Dynasty.
Of course, the premise was that she had to cooperate with his Soul Search.
If she didn’t cooperate, under his forceful Soul Searching, she would definitely become an idiot!
"I-I will cooperate."
People are the knife and I am the fish meat; Ye Qinxian had no power to resist!
Her opponent was too powerful, and rather than being forcefully subjected to Soul Searching, she chose to cooperate.
She only hoped that her opponent would truly keep his word and guarantee her spirit soul wouldn’t be harmed.
With Ye Qinxian fully cooperating, Li Xiaojun conducted a Soul Searching of her memories from beginning to end.
Ye Qinxian was born over five thousand years ago in the Yu Hua Divine Dynasty.
When she was little, Ye Qinxian was not called this name; she was known as Er Ya, a name she later gave herself as she grew up.
Er Ya’s parents died when she was young, and she had only one older brother who relied on her for companionship.
Her brother was very good to her; even living in hardship, he created a joyful environment for her.
From an early age, her brother spoiled her, preparing thoughtful birthday gifts for her every year.
The first birthday gift she received was a ring her brother made from discarded copper pieces.
Later, her brother crafted a mask for her, which she cherished greatly.
Time passed, and she grew into a 16-year-old girl.
That one year, the Yu Hua Divine Dynasty drafted young men, and Er Ya’s brother was taken. After that, he never returned.
Years later, a Taoist priest arrived in the village where Er Ya lived and decided to take on disciples.
In the village, there were two people with cultivation talent, one of whom was Er Ya.
However, Er Ya’s talent was very low; she only had a pseudo spirit root.
Fortunately, her cultivation sect had many cultivation texts.
After spending several decades reading all the texts, Er Ya finally took the name Ye Qinxian.
After mastering numerous cultivation methods and continuously researching the human body, she eventually created her own cultivation technique before her life was at risk.
The technique she invented could absorb others’ spirit roots essence to enhance her own spirit roots.
Thus, relying on this technique, Ye Qinxian’s spirit roots quickly improved.
Her cultivation speed also rapidly advanced; in less than five thousand years, she broke through to the Great Ascension stage.
Through Soul Searching Ye Qinxian’s memories, Li Xiaojun quickly grasped this cultivation technique, including its principles.
Of course, through Soul Searching, Li Xiaojun also understood why Ye Qinxian sought out his wife and daughter.
This technique could detect the spirit root talent of nearby individuals.
Spirit roots are very complex; ordinary cultivators could hardly discern them unless they used true essence to examine someone’s body.
Even Powerful Cultivators couldn’t tell who had spirit roots using divine sense.
Using true essence to probe was too dangerous for ordinary people and could easily harm them.
As for probing cultivators, unless the other party cooperated, it would be impossible to discover anything.
Thus, when cultivators examined ordinary people’s spirit roots, especially children, they used a crystal ball for detecting spirit roots.
This crystal ball could soften the true essence, ensuring it wouldn’t harm the children’s health.
Of course, Ye Qinxian’s technique was different.
Her technique allowed her divine sense to carry a trace of true essence.
Then, her divine sense could detect whether nearby individuals had spirit root talent.
However, with Ye Qinxian’s cultivation level, she could only reach a distance of ten meters.
But when Li Xiaojun tried to cultivate using this technique, he was able to sense whether people within a hundred thousand meters had spirit roots.
The reason for this great distance was mainly due to Li Xiaojun’s Heavenly Immortal realm cultivation.
Li Xiaojun didn’t expect to gain such a tremendous opportunity from Ye Qinxian.
Indeed, Li Xiaojun believed that this cultivation technique was a chance of a lifetime for him.
Though he currently possessed the Heavenly Immortal realm, he had no spirit root talent, which had been a lifelong pain for him!
Now, with this cultivation technique, he could absorb others’ root bones essence to form his own spirit root, enhancing it as well.
In such a situation, perhaps in the future, he could possess a Powerful spirit root talent or even Acquired Divine Demons as followers.
If he had chaotic Acquired Divine Demons as companions, even without a system, he wouldn’t worry about failing to become a Powerful figure.
Having mastered this technique, Li Xiaojun couldn’t wait to test its characteristics.
So he turned his gaze toward Ye Qinxian.
When he Soul Searched her earlier, he used true essence to check her spirit roots.
At that time, Ye Qinxian’s spirit roots had been strengthened to the level of a Yang spirit root after absorbing the essence from others.
If he absorbed her spirit roots, based on Ye Qinxian’s experience in absorption, he could achieve the level of top-grade spirit roots.
