In an instant, all the Hall Soldiers felt a dizziness overcome them. They could only stand still without moving.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Fade activated the Ice Soul Pearl. It emitted a chill and enveloped the soldiers.
"It's a divine soul attack. Be careful!" The leader had just recovered and was trying to warn the rest of his men.
However, at this moment, a gust of chilly air surged over.
The leader looked up and saw a white pearl in the sky.
"What the..."
Before the leader could make a sound, ice cold air swooshed down and enveloped him and all the other Hall Soldiers. They were all frozen on the spot.
Fade followed through by triggering his fire essence onto the frozen men.
The combination caused the thirty or so frozen men to explode.
The golden giant in the air let out a roar as it started to crumble.
Of course, Fade would not let it go so easily. He activated his Origin Returning in the giant's direction and started to absorb as much as he could.
Soon, the golden giant was completely absorbed by him.
Through this, he could feel that the injuries he suffered earlier on his World Tree Yuan Seal had completely healed.
Moreover, his Yuan Seal had been fortified.
He had leveled up from third grade of the Human Level straight to the fifth grade.
This was beyond Fade’s expectations. He would have been satisfied to just reach the fourth grade. After all, the higher level he got, the harder it would be to increase his grade.
Presently, he had risen two whole grades. This meant that the combined Yuan Seal of the Hall Soldiers was immensely powerful.
It was considered very admirable to have a fifth grade Human Level Yuan Seal in South Yan City.
Even disciples like Yarrow were only in the fourth grade, despite his Remote Silver Sword Yuan Seal.
After absorbing their Yuan Seals, Fade cleaned up the traces around the area and took a look around.
This time, he went through two battles and killed quite a few people. He absorbed all their Yuan Seals. Additionally, he slaughtered quite a few vicious beasts and got a few things from them as well.
These gains were beyond his expectation before he entered the forest.
If he went back now, he could use these to cultivate and prepare for the upcoming City Contest.
However, the battle with the Hall Soldiers changed his mind.
He thought that he had improved dramatically after cultivating. He thought this amount of combat power was enough.
After all, as a Stage 9 Physical Refine Realm martial artist, he was able to kill a Stage 7 or 8 Soul Refine Realm martial artist. That alone was pretty impressive.
However, when he was facing the Stage 9 Soul Refine Realm Hall Soldiers, he felt a sense of danger and panic.
If he did not have the Ice Soul Pearl, he most definitely would have died instead.
Hence, he crushed the previous selfconfidence he had. He needed to remind himself that there was still a lot for him to learn. He needed to continue to become better.
Therefore, he was not in a hurry to go back. Instead, he wanted to gain more experience in order to become more skilled.
Hopefully, he could surpass Stage 9 of the Physical Refine Realm and reach the Soul Refine Realm before the City Contest.
