"Roar!"

The Ice Flame Dragon Whale on the pearl suddenly let out a furious roar. In an instant, the entire pearl began to tremble slightly from the impact of this roar. Then, it began to burst out from its body.

Boom!

When the Ice Flame Dragon Whale saw the ball leave its body, it also used all the strength in its body to charge out of the aura sea and fly towards the bead in the sky.

A soul beast swallowing a pearl was the sign of a soul origin realm practitioner breaking through to the Soul Transformation stage!

"Roar!"

In the blink of an eye, it was already several hundred feet long. Due to the appearance of the Ice Fire Dragon Whale, the entire cave began to collapse, however, those rolling boulders were turned into dust the moment they came into contact with Xia Hengwu's body.

Following the appearance of the Ice Fire Dragon Whale, an enormous soul force vortex turned into a pillar that shot into the sky and erupted in mid-air.

"Roar!" Roar! "Roar!"

The Ice Flame Dragon Whale instantly flew into the sky. After which, it opened its mouth wide and swallowed the entire Soul Martial Energy pillar.

As he watched the Ice Fire Dragon Whale absorb all the soul energy pillars, the corner of his mouth lifted upwards. As long as the Ice Fire Dragon Whale was able to absorb the soul energy pillars formed by the Pearl, it wouldn't be long before he could break through to the Soul Transformation stage.

It was just that previously, when Zhou Huai broke through to the Soul Transformation stage, his soul power was used to form a pearl, while he used the pearl to form a pillar of soul energy for the soul beast to devour.

However, he did not think too much about it. When he was at the Soul Origin Stage, a pearl had already appeared. It must be because of the Ice and Fire Eye.

After the Ice Fire Dragon Whale swallowed the Pearl Bead, the originally white bead strangely turned golden when it returned to Xia Wuwu's aura sea. Furthermore, there were nine scratches on its surface.

"Grade nine Spirit?"

Xia Hun Wu's eyes were filled with astonishment. A ninth grade Spirit was a very powerful existence. Even Liu Changan was only an eighth grade Spirit Apostle, right? Moreover, his current Spirit was actually a ninth grade spirit beast. As expected of an Ice Flame Dragon Whale, it was the bloodline of a Heaven Ranked Soul Beast.

"Hu!"

After his shock, Xia Hewwu also slowly spat out a ball of white Qi, calming down his heart. He could also feel the massive amount of soul power surging within his body like floodwaters. Its tyranny was even more tyrannical than before he entered the Demon Region.

This feeling also made him understand that he had now completely entered the first level of Soul Transformation. He was only three small realms away from the fourth level.

A smile appeared on Xia Hun Wu's face as he let out a sigh of relief. As long as he successfully entered the Soul Transformation stage, he would be able to absorb the remaining soul power from the Soul Breaking Pill and reach the fourth level Spirit Stage.

However, just as he was about to continue devouring the remnant soul power within the Soul Breaking Pill, he suddenly felt a strange fluctuation coming from the Royal Sword Intent in his body.

This kind of feeling made Xia Hun Wu's heart beat rapidly. A soul tremble aura spread out from his perception, and a look of shock appeared in his eyes.

Could the Royal Sword Intent evolve as one's realm increased?

This kind of feeling became increasingly intense, causing a pleasantly surprised expression to surge on his face.

A similar fluctuation appeared when Wang Quan's sword intent broke through to the 3rd level of the Soul Essence realm. However, he had thought that he would need to wait until he broke through to the 7th level of the Spirit Stage before he could increase his sword intent. He never expected that it would actually happen so quickly.

"Is it because of a rank 9 Spirit?"

This thought flashed across Xia Hun Wu's mind. Only this ninth grade Spirit could cause the Royal Sword Intent to evolve once more.

This was the premonition of the evolution of the Royal Sword Intent, but it couldn't be considered a real evolution. Next up, he had to completely integrate the Royal Sword Intent into the soul beast's blood, and then make the final breakthrough.

Currently, the Royal Sword Intent in his body was enough to instantly kill a sixth level Spirit Stage powerhouse. Even a Spirit Stage powerhouse would be able to fight it. If he were to evolve one more step, it would reach the level of condensing the sword intent. As long as he reached this step, the attack power of the Royal Sword Intent would increase once again.

Although he did not know who sealed the Royal Sword Intent in the ninth floor, hearing Old Mu say that the Royal Sword Intent was one of the Great Yan Empire's two great secret treasures, it was enough to show just how powerful the Royal Sword Intent was.

As long as he could evolve the royal power sword intent again, then he would have a greater chance of winning the battle for the Spirit Emblem Tower a year later.

Xia Hun Wu also shifted his body and activated his soul power once again. Immediately, golden light started to flicker on the surface of his body as the blood in his body started to boil once again.

"Buzz!"

The two Royal Sword Intent frantically shook within his body. After which, under Xia Hun Wu's control, the two Royal Sword Intent broke out from his body and spiraled above his head.

In the blink of an eye, the two Royal Sword Intent split into four and eight. In just a few breaths time, there were already a large amount of Royal Sword Intent floating above Xia Hun Wu's head.

Fortunately, this was the Demon Area and there were few students coming and going. Otherwise, just this commotion alone would cause people's jaws to drop.

While Xia Hun Wu was using his soul power to the maximum, he was also able to feel that there was a Royal Sword Technique condensing deep within his body. However, this Royal Sword Technique was not like the ones hovering above him.

However, this royal power sword intent that caused his heart to palpitate was only condensed a little when the Ice Flame Dragon Whale approached it.

"It's actually because of the blood of the soul beast!"

When Xia Hun Wu noticed this, he also understood what was going on. With a flick of his mind, he started to control the Ice Fire Dragon Whale to move towards the Royal Sword Intent.

"Roar!"

Under Xia Hun Wu's careful manipulation, the Ice Fire Dragon Whale headed towards the direction of Wang Quan's sword intent. The moment the Ice Fire Dragon Whale surged, Xia Hun Wu's body also trembled slightly as an extremely terrifying energy was rapidly gathering within his body.

Icy-blue and fiery-red luster flickered on Xia Wuwu's skin. Then, he felt that the soul beast blood in his body was being forcefully absorbed by a mysterious power. This power was the Royal Sword Intent that had yet to be condensed.

"Could it be that the formation of the third royal sword intent is going to extract the ancient bloodline of the Ice Flame Dragon Whale?"
