Chapter 177: Elemental Soul Lake

Qing Shou Jian and the rest of the Moon Lake Squad celebrated like they had just won the lottery.

"I told you all. Brother Lu Zheng is too strong to lose" Qing Shou Jian smiled as vital stones appeared in his spatial ring.

"If we continue like this, we'll become rich!" Zhongyao Shu smiled as he sensed his spatial ring. He felt like the vital stones sitting inside it were unreal.

"Brother Lu Zheng is so amazing. I wonder if he is single" Doecii's gaze grew distant.

Su Haoran was the first to leave. Despite Ye Bai Er's loss, he wasn't too disturbed.

"As expected, my rival won't lose to a Void Passage realm expert. I expected Ye Bai Er to force Lu Zheng to reveal his true strength but I was hoping for too much. Still, the information I gained was worth the Dragon Breath Immortal Flame"

Su Haoran's gaze was filled with determination: "Lu Zheng, I will surely defeat you and surpass you!"

…..

Lu Zheng sent his soul consciousness into his wristband as he made his way to his house.

…..

…..

Lu Zheng was pleasantly surprised: "So it is true. After the first match, winning a match would also get me vital stones. But, I am still far from twenty thousand Battle Points"

Lu Zheng shook his head and calmed his mind.

~It has only been a few days. This progress is only natural. I should focus on my cultivation for now~

Lu Zheng returned to his house and sat on his cultivation mat. His eyes were closed as beads of sweat condensed all over him.

Inside his Soul Lake, his host soul was submerged in the great pink flames of the Sea of Nirvana. Its expression was twisted with pain.

After an unknown amount of time, the host soul rose to the surface of the frozen Soul Lake, its expression still showing the pain it had just undergone.

Despite the residual pain that still tore through his very being, Lu Zheng smiled: "The Sea of Nirvana is too good. This cultivation session alone gave me three new soul path dao imprints"

Lu Zheng had lived an entire lifetime before. He knew just how difficult it was to gain a single dao imprint without breaking through.

For soul path martial practitioners, it was even more difficult. Normally, Lu Zheng had to wait till he reached the Eternal realm before getting soul path dao imprints.

This was because lightning tribulations destroyed soul path dao imprints. Lightning was the bane of all souls.

"My soul foundation has dropped by over a hundred thousand" Lu Zheng sighed. This was the obvious flaw of the Sea of Nirvana. The soul foundation fell as the soul was tempered.

"But it cannot be helped, unless I can get the Elemental Soul Lake" Lu Zheng's eye's glistened over the thought. "No, no. It is completely impossible for me to even get a glance at it"

Reverend Spectral Demon had praised the Elemental Soul Lake and the Sea of Nirvana has the best for cultivating soul path.

While Reverend Spectral Demon had the Sea of Nirvana, the Elemental Soul Lake was a Secluded Domain of Heaven and Earth that the Yama King once wielded.

When Reverend Spectral Demon was still a Venerable, he discovered that the Elemental Soul Lake was with the Yama King and fought with him many times for it. However, both parties were evenly matched and he could not obtain a decisive victory so he gave up.

After successfully becoming a Reverend, Reverend Spectral Demon went straight to the Yama King for the Elemental Soul Lake but the latter was adamant and refused to give in. He was later killed by Reverend Spectral Demon.

Yet, the Yama King would not let Reverend Spectral Demon to have his way. He made Yama Battlefield to become a part of the main world's landscape and sealed the Elemental Soul Lake deep within Death's Domain in the Gate of Life and Death.

Out of respect for the Yama King's heritage, Reverend Spectral Demon gave up on the matter and returned to Chang Court.

Now, the Elemental Soul Lake was surrounded by numerous soul beasts that Lu Zheng could not even begin to fathom their strength. The soul beasts drank from the Elemental Soul Lake as their source of strength.

Lu Zheng was only daydreaming if he wanted the Elemental Soul Lake. Ridding himself of unnecessary thoughts, Lu Zheng took a shower before leaving the Battle Arena's city.

Then, he tore open a spatial passage leading to the outer void before entering it unhesitantly.

Cheng He Xie walked out from the shadows and sneered: "You think spatial travelling will save you?"

Using a space path artifact, Cheng He Xie followed Lu Zheng into the outer void with two of his team mates.
