Chapter 5088 A Soul for a Life

Xiao Yan nodded, his gaze fixed on the Nirvana Pool, and as expected, the Heavenly King's physical body melted into it.

As time went on, Xiao Yan's gaze grew increasingly solemn, because the figure of the Heavenly King had not yet appeared, exceeding the time he had spent entering.

However, Xiao Yan was not in a hurry. After all, Tianzang King's soul was injured, and it would not be so simple for him to be reborn in the Nirvana Pool.

“His condition may not be very good.” Feng Xi could sense the fluctuations in the Nirvana Pool. After all, countless clansmen had undergone Nirvana there, so she could see the general situation of Tianzang King.

"If it is not successful within three days in the Nirvana Pool, it will be unable to recover and will become part of the Nirvana Pool."

Feng Xi's words made Xiao Yan increasingly anxious, and it was hard not to worry about Tianzang King.

Xiao Yan was at a loss for what to do. Nirvana could not be achieved with the help of others; he could only rely on Tianzang King himself.

But Xiao Yan's thoughts shifted. Although he couldn't help directly, he thought of Xiao Yue Li. At this moment, what Tian Cang Wang might need more was a sense of conviction.

Therefore, Xiao Yan used his soul power to conjure up Xiao Yue Li's voice and perfectly replicated their conversation when they left.

Although I don't know if it will be useful, it's better than doing nothing.

"Senior Tianzang Wang, Yue Li is still waiting for you in Shenxi, you must hold on!"

While verbal encouragement may seem pale and powerless, the thought of someone in one's heart can generate boundless strength.

At this time, according to Feng Xi, the time was approaching three days. If he could not achieve Nirvana, there would be no possibility of Tianzang King being resurrected.

Feng Xi sighed deeply. He had seen too many Phoenix Clan members fail to achieve Nirvana. Even the Phoenix Clan at their peak could hardly achieve Nirvana. Every Nirvana and rebirth was an evolution.

Each time Feng Xi undergoes a rebirth, the Phoenix Clan's mark gains an additional color, as does the flames on her body. Feng Xi possesses five-colored flames, indicating that she has undergone five rebirths.

However, for the Phoenix Clan, each step represents evolution and progress, while for other races it has little effect, often resulting in a desperate struggle.

“Three days have passed, and he has no hope left,” Feng Xi said, shaking her head. The Nirvana Pool gradually returned to calm.

Xiao Yan took a step forward and immediately rushed into the Nirvana Pool. His Void Realm Soul suddenly dispersed, and with the addition of the Void Cave Soul, Xiao Yan pushed his soul power to its limit.

In the Nirvana Pool, Xiao Yan discovered that the soul belonging to Tianzang King had dissipated. He disregarded everything, his soul power surged, and he forcibly tried to condense the scattered soul of Tianzang King.

For Xiao Yan, this would cause him to consume his soul power at an alarming rate.

The Nirvana Pool was devouring Xiao Yan's soul power. Even someone as strong as Xiao Yan in the Void Realm would be overwhelmed by such devouring.

But Xiao Yan cannot let Tianzang King perish here. He must find a way to save him no matter what!

“If this continues, they will all be incinerated by the power of Nirvana. Everything will be in vain. Xuanhuang, you should persuade him.” Fengxi shook her head and said.

"It's no use. The fact that he spared no expense shows that this person is very important to him. I never thought that Your Majesty would also be such a loyal and righteous person."

Xuanhuang sighed deeply. No matter what choice Xiao Yan made, he would not interfere, nor could he.

Both Feng Xi and Xuan Huang believed that all of this was in vain.

Just then, Xiao Yan grabbed Bodhidharma and the dog's eye. They also contained immense soul power, which surged into the entire Nirvana Pool. Xiao Yan's eyes were filled with unwavering determination; he was determined to save Tianzang King no matter what.

"Yue Li sent me to find you. You cannot perish here no matter what. Shen Xi needs you!!"

Xiao Yan roared, hoping that Tianzang King could hear him. In the darkness, Tianzang King's consciousness was already chaotic, and his three souls and seven spirits had scattered. Xiao Yan's soul power, through the dog's eyes and Bodhidharma, forcibly awakened Tianzang King.

"Yue Li...I'm sorry..."

"I'm going to die..."

The Heavenly King murmured, and Xiao Yan sensed his intense will to die.

"King Tianzang, Yue Li is waiting for you to return. No one can replace her feelings for you. If you perish here, Yue Li will be heartbroken, and it will become a knot in her heart. You cannot die for her sake."

"I lend you the power of my soul; seize it and escape the mire!"

Xiao Yan's voice and will were conveyed to Tianzang King. This borrowing was not so simple; it involved borrowing one of Xiao Yan's three souls, which would damage his soul power.

However, he could no longer estimate the extent of the damage. He couldn't stand idly by and watch Tianzang King save him on multiple occasions, or nurture Xiao Yueli. He would gladly sacrifice a soul if he could save Tianzang King.

"Xiao Yan... Is Yue Li alright?"

"Yue Li doesn't like me..."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's eyelids twitched slightly. No wonder Tianzang Wang had asked him to address him as an equal before; it turned out he wanted to become his son-in-law.

"Tianzang Wang, only if you survive will everything change. She still needs you."

As Xiao Yan spoke, a spark finally appeared in the previously chaotic darkness.

This was the rekindled life of the Heavenly King, and the flame of Nirvana instantly surged forth, causing the entire Nirvana Pool to tremble.

A figure slowly materialized beside Xiao Yan, transforming into the form of the Heavenly King.

His aura continued to gather, and color gradually returned to his face, while Xiao Yan's face was pale. Now, of his three souls and seven spirits, he was missing one soul.

Although it will regrow, it will likely take a long time to recover.

"I never expected... he actually succeeded." Feng Xi's eyes widened. This was the first time someone had helped another succeed in Nirvana in the Nirvana Pool.

"But Brother Xiao Yan, is it really... worth it to lose your own soul?" Xuan Huang stood with his hands behind his back, not too shocked by the result.

Tianzangwang slowly opened his eyes, and a powerful suction force emanated from his body, causing his cultivation level to rise rapidly.

In an instant, it unleashed the power of the fifth level of the Emperor's Heart Realm.

His eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the figure beside him.

"Xiao Yan...did you save me?" Tian Cang Wang finally regained his senses, and his condition had also recovered to its peak through the Nirvana Pool.

"You... sacrificed your soul to save me, why did you do that? Damaging your soul will have a huge impact on you, but if I, Tianzang, die, I die!" Tianzang King sensed the fluctuations in Xiao Yan's soul and immediately understood the reason.

"Then, in the name of Your Excellency, I will spare your life, is that alright?" Xiao Yan's gaze was indifferent, seemingly unconcerned about losing a soul.

"I just wanted to fulfill my daughter's trust, and I hope you won't let her down either. You died in another world. Have you ever thought about what price she would pay for you?"
