With its current remnant soul state, it was unable to devour this treasure, causing it to pass through its body and fall to the ground. However, the remnant soul looked like it was eating with relish. He even burped and patted his stomach. “So comfortable.”
“Can you tell me the secret you know now?” Xiao Shi asked.
“Of course.” The remnant soul nodded and thought for a moment. It seemed to have chosen one of the many secrets it knew. “Then let me tell you about the sixth realm of martial arts. Many people don’t know what the sixth realm of martial arts is. This realm is called the Sage Realm! The key to this realm is to refine a domain.”
The remnant soul said in an unfathomable tone, as if it had revealed a huge secret. However, Xiao Shi felt like he had been deceived.
Then he thought about it carefully. He was not really deceived. After all, not many people knew about the Sage Realm. This could indeed be considered a secret. However, the secret that the other party was talking about happened to be what he knew.
“If you still want to know other secrets, you can continue to give me treasures.
I still know many secrets.” The remnant soul said mysteriously.
Xiao Shi glanced at the treasure that had fallen to the ground after being swallowed by the remnant soul. He felt that even if he picked up this treasure now and handed it to the remnant soul in front of him, it would not notice anything unusual. He could repeatedly freeioad.
Unfortunately, due to the taboo in the valley, he could not pick it up. After all, one of the taboos of the valley was that all items in the valley could not be picked up.
However, the treasure he had just given was only a Blood Martial Grade treasure. He had the intention to test him. It was impossible for him to directly give out expensive treasures.
“Are there any higher-level secrets, such as the seventh realm of martial arts? I want to know higher-level secrets.” Xiao Shi asked.
“Of course I do!” The remnant soul raised its head proudly. “But you have to pay more!!”
Xiao Shi did not say a word. He directly gave it two blood martial-level treasures. After the remnant soul swallowed the two blood martial-level treasures, he licked his lips in satisfaction. He still said in an unfathomable tone. “The seventh realm of martial arts is called the Daolord! The key to this realm is to control a complete Dao. However, the ‘Dao’ of the Tianwu Continent is limited. Therefore, there are often conflicts among Sages!”
Xiao Shi nodded. He was quite satisfied with this secret. In fact, when he came into contact with the Qianqi Dao Slash, he had already realized that in the upper three realms of martial arts, it would involve the Dao. However, he did not expect that he would need to control a complete Dao in the first realm of the Upper Three Realms.
“Daolord, huh…” Xiao Shi remembered this realm. With a flip of his hand, He took out three Blood Martial Grade items. He expressed that he wanted to know the eighth realm of martial arts.
Even Xiang Zizhen had no way to know this information. After all, the three upper realms of martial arts were known as the legendary realms in the current Tianwu Continent. After the collapse of the imperial power of the Great Wu Empire, only two or three Upper Realm experts had been born in the entire Tianwu Continent.
As a result, many martial artists of this generation did not know the specific information of the Upper Three Realms. The remnant soul took the three blood martial-level treasures from Xiao Shi in satisfaction. After swallowing them, it said to Xiao Shi.
“The eighth realm of martial arts is called Demigod! As for the specific information of this realm, it has always been a secret. Because most of the people who have seen a demigod attack are already dead. Very few people can come into contact with demigods. Therefore, there’s very little information about demigods. Even I only know the name of this realm. I don’t know anything else.”
Xiao Shi nodded. There was not much information about this realm. He only understood a name. However, he knew that as his realm increased, the more valuable the information was. He only used three Blood Martial Grade treasures to know the name of the eighth realm. This was definitely worth it.
“Next is the ninth realm of martial arts, which is also the end of martial arts!” Xiao Shi took a deep breath. He did not expect to know the specific information of the ninth realm. He only wanted to know the name of the ninth realm now. It could be said that this was something every martial artist wanted to know.
No matter what realm he was in in martial arts, he wanted to know what the end of martial arts was. Xiao Shi was no exception.
With anticipation in his heart, Xiao Shi took out five blood martial-grade items in one go. He gave all five Blood Martial Grade items to the remnant soul. However, when the remnant soul took the five Blood Martial Grade items and swallowed them, it shook its head and said, “I’m sorry, I don’t know about the ninth realm of martial arts either. But I’ll tell you another secret of equal value. This secret is related to the Martial Emperor.”
The remnant soul said mysteriously.
Xiao Shi’s heart trembled. Although he didn’t know the ninth realm of martial arts, he was also interested in the secret of the Martial Emperor.
“The Martial Emperor has a total of three children. One is dead, one is crippled, and one is missing. It’s said that these three children have an earth-shattering secret. Unfortunately, the dead child’s body and soul were destroyed. Even his corpse did not exist. We can no longer obtain any secrets from him.
“The crippled child has always stayed by the Martial Emperor’s side. No one can have any ideas about him. Therefore, everyone locked their gazes on the missing Martial Emperor’s child As a result, all the experts on the Tianwu Continent are looking for this missing Martial Emperor’s son.
“Some people speculate that the Palace Master of the Heavenly Mystery Palace might know where this missing Martial Emperor’s son is. Recently, I’ve found out the exact location of the Palace Master of Heavenly Mystery Palace through my own channels. I’m prepared to look for him and find out this secret!”
The remnant soul suddenly patted his head, as if he had remembered something extremely important. “That’s right. 1 still have to find the Palace Master of the Heavenly Mystery Palace. What am I doing here?”
As he muttered softly, he floated into the distance.
Xiao Shi wanted to know more. However, the remnant soul ignored his words. Even ifhe took out a treasure in front of it, the remnant soul did not react. He muttered to himself. He floated into the distance as he thought.
When the remnant soul revealed this secret, it would fall into the same state as the other remnant souls.
Xiao Shi took a deep breath. He clearly realized the secret revealed by the remnant soul most likely involved the highest level of the Tianwu Continent. Not only was it related to the Martial Emperor’s son, but it was also related to the previous Palace Master of Heavenly Mystery Palace.
According to Xiao Shi’s understanding, the previous Palace Master of Heavenly Mystery Palace had already died many years ago. However, the death of the Palace Master had always been a mystery. No one knew how the Palace Master died.
“Is there a possibility that the Palace Master was killed because he knew this secret!?” Xiao Shi made a guess.
According to the remnant soul, the Martial Emperor’s missing heir was related to an earth-shattering secret. If only the Palace Master of Heavenly Mystery Palace knew where this missing heir was, he might very well become the public enemy of the entire Tianwu Continent.
And therefore brought about a fatal disaster.
“If the Palace Master of the Heavenly Mystery Palace dies because of this secret, then this remnant soul most likely died from this secret. There’s a high chance that its last memory is when it went to look for the Palace Master of Heavenly Mystery Palace. Of course, it might have lost its subsequent memories because it’s a remnant soul.
“But how did it know the whereabouts of the Palace Master of Heavenly Mystery Palace?”
Xiao Shi fell into deep thought. Even though he did not know much about the previous Palace Master, he also knew the identity of the previous Palace Master was not publicized on the Tianwu Continent, and very few people knew his true identity.
Unless…
When this remnant soul was still alive, it was a member of the Heavenly Mystery Palace! Furthermore, he was a member of the Heavenly Mystery Palace that was deeply trusted by the Palace Master!
