What If I Can't Die?

by Legrev

Song Shi came to an immortal world where demons and monsters were rampant. He thought he was going to take a trepidatious road to immortality, but ended up awakening to a death-defying system, gaining strength from death and getting stronger every time he died. The whole style took a sudden change. Other people cultivated to seek immortality, but he was already immortal, and could

186 Body Of Ten Thousand Poisons (1)

Outside the Thousand Poisons Mountain Range, thousands of feet in the sky, a Bronze war chariot moved forward with a whistling sound.

This war chariot was a hundred meters tall and more than ten feet wide. It looked rough and was engraved with ancient rune patterns. It was a long-standing war Dharma treasures.

In front of the chariot, there was a demon beast that looked like a golden Qilin[1."Qilin" The qilin is a legendary hooved chimerical creature that appears in Chinese mythology]pulling the carriage.

This beast indeed possessed the bloodline of the Qilin. It was called the Golden Qilin Beast. Its entire body was covered in golden scales and its appearance was mighty and extraordinary. Its strength was at the level of a Golden Core Realm Martial King and the body of this demonic beast was powerful. Its strength was above that of cultivators of the same level.

To be able to use a Demon King with a special bloodline to pull the carriage, it could be seen how deep the Ye Family's foundation was.

Beside him, a war Dharma treasure that looked like a yellow ancient book was moving forward.

"Brother Ye, we have to stay in Silk City for a few days. Let's part ways here."

The people from Qianzheng Academy spoke.

"Alright, come to Jinzhou when you're free."

Ye Wenzhong squeezed out a smile. He didn't get any benefits this time and even lost many people. How could he be in the mood to show a good expression?

"Farewell."

The cultivator who looked like an old master cupped his fists and ordered his Dharma treasures to change directions and fly towards Silken City in the distance.

The Ye Family continued to fly towards Jinzhou on the Bronze Chariot.

There were thirty-six prefectures in Great Qian. Silken City was located in the southeast while Jinzhou was in the northwest. They still had to fly three thousand miles to reach it.

The Ye Family was the overlord of Jinzhou's cultivation world. Their strength was comparable to super-class sects, and their influence spanned across Jinzhou and the surrounding cities: Yuanzhou, Jiangzhou, and other places.

Compared to the chaotic Silken City, Jinzhou had the Ye Family secretly presiding over it. It was still relatively peaceful and there were no wars.

When they entered the Jinzhou area, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

It was safer to return to their own territory.

Just as they were relaxing, in a cloud behind the Bronze chariot, more than ten figures were secretly following them on a Dharma treasures ship. They had been following them for a period of time.

"Father, aren't you going to attack? They're all going back to their nest."

Lu Youyou looked a little tired. She had stared at the butt of the golden chariot for a long time.

"We can prepare to attack soon. Now is the time for them to relax. We just have to kill Ye Wenzhong. We don't expect to wipe all of them out."

Lu Jiu felt that the time was almost up. The Ye Family definitely did not expect them to follow them all the way here.

Song Shi stopped him.

"What did you find?"

Ghost Butcher asked.

"There's a group of people in that direction. They're following us on the ground."

Song Shi pointed at the hilly area in the southeast direction. "They can't possibly be following us to admire the scenery, right?"

From ten thousand meters in the sky to the hills in the southeast, the straight line distance between both has exceeded 50 kilometers.

Lu Jiu could not help but take another look at Song Shi. The two Nascent Soul cultivators did not even notice anything. What method did this guy use?

Song Shi smiled mysteriously, "Let's sit on the boat and watch the show."

It wasn't that his senses were very strong, but he had sensed it through the replica of the seven-colored alms bowl on his body. To be precise, he could sense the Gu worms in those people's bodies.

This replica had some of the original Numinous treasures' Effects, so it had started to be effective.

"Which faction?"

Lu Youyou asked curiously.

"I'm not sure. I can only sense someone."

Song Shi shook his head.

"Pfft, I thought you were good."

Lu Youyou immediately looked down on Song Shi.

Song Shi turned his head and started to size up her figure again. Lu Youyou blushed and quietened down.

It couldn't be helped. Now that Song Shi had returned to his original appearance, he was charming, carefree, sunny, and handsome. It was difficult to compare him to a fierce demon.

"Damn it, why am I blushing!"

Lu Youyou was angry and embarrassed. She was ashamed of her own reaction.

She didn't know that being stared at by a handsome man who she found irresistible would mostly be like this.

Shi Tianya's expression darkened. Lu Youyou had always been his ideal Dao companion. How could she blush because of another man?

Song Shi looked at the shy and beautiful Lu Youyou with interest. He had to admit that this woman was indeed very beautiful. She carried a kind of feral and demonic charm.

Unfortunately, she had a foul mouth.

"Ahem, the Blood-robed Elder is more than a thousand years old, right?"

Lu Jiu coughed meaningfully.

These words were already very obvious. He wanted Song Shi to have some morals and not think of Lu Youyou that way.

"I've checked. The blood-robed elder is more than one thousand and three hundred years old. In the mortal world, he's equivalent to an ancestor from more than one hundred generations ago."

Shi Tianya specially emphasized the word 'old'.

"I'm eighteen."

Song Shi retorted. He was really eighteen years old, nienteen at most.

Everyone looked at him with disdain.

Song Shi was helpless. Who asked him to be involved in possession? There was really no way to explain this.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"

Just as everyone was looking down on Song Shi's shamelessness, a strange sound came from afar.

Lu Youyou turned her head to avoid Song Shi's aggressive gaze. She touched her hot and delicate face and said uncomfortably, "Where did the sound of rats come from in the sky?"

In order to avoid being discovered, Lu Jiu deliberately used his Dharma treasures to fly ten thousand meters into the sky to hide in the clouds. There were not many birds here, let alone rats.

The inner sect disciples and elders of the Heavenly Ghost Sect who followed them looked around. Then, their pupils constricted and they landed on a black cloud that rose from the ground.

"Look, what is that?"

"It seems to be a bird?"

"It's a bat!"

While some people were still identifying them, those with good eyesight had already recognized them.

Song Shi quietly watched as the dense swarm of bats flew towards the Bronze chariot.

On the chariot, flags fluttered. Ye Wenzhong suddenly opened his eyes and looked down through the gaps in the railings. A group of squeaking black clouds was rapidly approaching.

187 Body of Ten Thousand Poisons (2)

"Enemy attack! Be on guard!"

He raised his hand and formed an incantation gesture. The runes on the war chariot shone brightly. Pure energy was released, forming a thick energy barrier.

In the blink of an eye, the surrounding light dimmed. Bats larger than chickens filled the surrounding space. Without any hesitation, they pounced over.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The bats were blocked by the barrier and could not approach the Ye Family.

"Are these animals courting death?"

"Other than the fact that there are many of them, what right do they have to threaten us?"

The independent cultivators panicked for a moment. Seeing that the bats could not even break through the barrier, they sneered and urged their flying swords to slash out.

"Stop!"

Ye Wenzhong berated, but he was still a little late. The barrier did not block the attacks from within. This person's flying sword easily killed a bat and blood spewed out.

Chi! Chi! Chi!

As soon as the bat's blood landed on the barrier, it immediately corroded.

"This blood is corrosive. Don't attack!"

Ye Wenzhong stopped him.

At this moment, a strange smell spread. After the people nearby smelled it, they immediately felt dizzy. A Qi Refinement cultivator even foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground, he was directly poisoned to death.

The people nearby were so frightened that they hurriedly retreated. They held their breaths, not daring to breathe at all.

Ye Wenzhong's expression was dark as he said, "Who is secretly attacking? Don't you know that this is already the Ye Family's territory? When I give the order, I guarantee that you won't be able to leave this place!"

"Hehe, Clan Leader Ye, you're so arrogant. Let's see if you die faster or if the reinforcements arrive faster."

Amidst the hoarse voice, an old man wrapped in something appeared out of thin air among the bats. Only his eyes were revealed as he stared at Ye Wenzhong with ill intentions.

Behind him, a group of people dressed similarly appeared with cold eyes.

"Old Poison, it's you again. You really think that the Ye Family is a pushover!"

Ye Wenzhong was so angry that he was about to explode. It was one thing for Old Poison to snatch his Ye Family's ten-thousand-year-old spirit ginseng, but he actually dared to rob and kill him on his way home!

"Hehe, we'll only know if one's a pushover after we pinch him a little more. Perhaps you are really a pushover."

"Wu~"

As he played the flute, the bats that were originally colliding with the barrier flew higher. Then, an invisible wave spread.

Those who thought that they were safe hiding in the energy barrier of the chariot immediately had a splitting headache. A servant accompanying them screamed and died from bleeding from all seven orifices.

Puff, puff, puff!

This was only the beginning. Soon, the other weaker cultivators widened their eyes and their eyeballs exploded for no reason. They spat out blood and died.

"What! There's poison?"

"What poison is this?"

"How could he poison everyone in an instant?"

The Gold Core Realm cultivators only felt dizzy and could vaguely hear some sharp sounds. They were dumbfounded as they looked at the obvious discomfort of everyone present with shocked expressions.

"It's some kind of sound attack that you can't hear. Everyone, close your ears!"

Ye Wenzhong reminded in a deep voice and narrowed his eyes at the Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons. "Is this the most powerful move of the Black Sound Poison Bats? Is that the infamous so-called sound poison?"

"Patriarch Ye is knowledgeable. Enjoy it."

Old Poison laughed out loud, "I have other good things here. You can experience it after you guys survive this wave."

Ye Wenzhong frowned and hurriedly adjusted the array formation of the chariot. Other than resisting the sound wave attack, he tried his best to speed up and leave.

Everyone also controlled their ears to block the sound wave attack as much as possible.

"Why are you running?"

Old Poison chuckled and waved his hand. The Heavenly Poison Sect members behind him released their Dharma treasures. A loud bang was heard and the Bronze Chariot was held back.

Roar!

At this moment, a furious roar tore through the air. A colorful centipede flew out of the forest like a long dragon and rushed over to wrap around the Bronze Chariot, pulling it to the ground.

"Imbecile, you have a death wish!"

Ye Wenzhong, who was about to escape, was furious. He urged his golden Spear to stab at the centipede's vital points.

Clang!

A bead blocked the golden spear. The Old Poison landed on the seven-colored centipede's head and smiled smugly. "Patriarch Ye, you should fight me. Don't bully my sect's Spirit Animal, the Seven-colored Centipede King."

"Damn it, if I don't kill you today, do you really think that the men of the Ye Family are easy to bully!"

Ye Wenzhong couldn't hold it in anymore. He cursed and charged over.

In the distance, a white cloud floated leisurely.

"This is an ultrasonic sound wave…"

Song Shi looked through the white clouds, deep in thought.

Through his special senses, he could "see" a wave-like sound wave attacking the chariot, but unlike the others, he could also actually hear it.

"It should be due to a change in my Physique. I can hear sounds that ordinary people can't."

At this moment, Lu Jiu controlled the wooden ship that everyone was on to stop and did not approach again.

Now that it was a battle between the two sects, wouldn't he be a fool if he didn't take advantage of this chaotic situation?

Lu Youyou leaned against the bed and supported her chin as she watched the Heavenly Poison Sect attack the Ye Family's Bronze Chariot. "Strange, now that the Ye Family doesn't have any more treasures, why is the Heavenly Poison Sect still pestering them?"

Song Shi glanced sideways. "I didn't expect you to actually have some brains and know that something is amiss."

"What do you mean I'm brainless!" Lu Youyou was immediately angry.

"Sigh, can you two stop bickering?"

Lu Jiu felt that Song Shi and his daughter's personality were not compatible. They would bicker with just a casual sentence.

"What can you expect from a pig!"

Lu Youyou snorted.

"I was influenced by you."

Song Shi was indignant.

Lu Jiu shook his head. Why did he feel that this Blood-Robed old ghost did not act like the infamous old devil at all, but rather, was more like an energetic young man?

Could it be that the aftermath of the possession was influenced by the consciousness of the person called Song Shi?

Song Shi felt that something was amiss. Why did he have to argue so much with this woman? It made him look like an immature young man who has not had much experiences.

He changed the topic, "Sect Master seems to know the reason why the Heavenly Poison Sect is pestering the Ye Family?"

"It should be to nurture their Body of Ten Thousand Poisons. Perhaps they need the Ye Family's golden blood."

Lu Jiu gave some information. After all, they were all big forces of the Demonic Sect and knew a little about each other.

"Body of Ten Thousand Poisons?"

Some memories of the Blood-Robed old ghost appeared in Song Shi's mind. "It's said that it can control all poisons. This Nomological power is a special physique that is highly toxic. But this is actually formed after Postnatal?"

"Hehe, that's right. Poisons harm others and themselves. It's very difficult to control it. Even if you control it, your body will be corroded by the poison. Didn't you see that those fellows are covering their bodies with black cloth?"

Lu Jiu mocked, "It's not that they like to cover themselves, but most people's bodies have been corroded by poison so much that they're neither human nor ghost."

Ghost Butcher nodded. "That's true. However, if someone looks glamorous and has very powerful poison techniques, you have to be careful. Either their poison techniques are superb, or they have a special physique."

"Body of Ten Thousand Poisons?"

Song Shi was enlightened.

"The Body of Ten Thousand Poisons is extremely impressive. In their Sky Poison Sect, those who can control ten types of poisons are considered elites. Those who can control a hundred poisons can become sect masters and Grand Supreme Elders. Those who can control a thousand poisons are basically Soul Transformation existences."

Lu Jiu shook his head. "This Ten Thousand Poison Body is also called the Ten Thousand Poison Divine Body. It's a physique similar to You You's, but it can be only refined at the Postnatal realm. Moreover, it's even more terrifying and infamous. If they really succeed, they'll be impressive in the future."

"Since it must be refined postnatal, I'm afraid the methods to improve it is a little cruel."

Song Shi muttered to himself. Since they wanted to kill the Ye Family to obtain their golden blood now, he could only imagine that there were even more cruel things to be done for future refinement.

"Cruel? They often do cruel things. They're used to it."

Lu Jiu took a deep look at Song Shi, "We're surprised to hear this from you, Elder Blood Robes."

Ghost Butcher teased, "Haha, could it be that the Blood-robed Elder wants to abandon evil and promote good?"

Lu Youyou looked at Song Shi in a daze. Why didn't this person look like the Blood-Robed old ghost who killed people like flies?

"F*ck, I've been exposed again."

Song Shi scolded himself for being careless. It seemed that he was still not perverted enough and was a little incompatible with the demonic sect.

He said without changing his expression, "When things reach an extreme, the opposite will happen. In the past, I killed too many people and attracted too much revenge. I have to be kind. Otherwise, life will be too boring."

"That makes sense. Although the people of my Demon Cult are not good people, they might not be evil people. Most of them are just extreme and unorthodox."

Lu Jiu nodded. To be honest, if the Blood-Robed old ghost did not have any good intentions, he would be afraid.

Boom!

With a loud bang, everyone's attention was drawn back. The seven-colored centipede king pulled the Bronze chariot down and slammed it to the ground.

A large number of trees were shattered, and a portion of the mountaintop was smashed. A portion of the weaklings on the Bronze Chariot were killed on the spot, and their blood dyed the chariot red.

"The seven-colored centipede, the seven-colored alms bowl… What's the relationship between the Holy Gu Sect and the Heavenly Poison Sect?"

Song Shi let one's imagination run wild when he saw the ferocious seven-colored centipede acting fierce. This was because he also had a seven-colored centipede.

However, his centipede was still weak and he did not care much about it usually.

188 Golden Blood

"It should be a special breed."

Song Shi felt that he was thinking too much. Some poisons were more poisonous the more beautiful they were. Naturally, they were colorful.

The seven colors of the alms bowl most likely corresponded to seven different cultivation nature.

Thinking of the treasures of different natures that appeared in the periphery of the basin, Song Shi stopped this association.

A thunderous sound interrupted his thoughts. The Bronze Chariot that fell to the ground released the power of lightning and killed a large number of bats nearby.

Roar!

The Golden Qilin Beast pulled the chariot and barged forward. The Ye Family used the chariot as a cover to counterattack.

Seeing that the battle had reached its climax, Song Shi's expression changed slightly. He quickly locked onto the few fellows who had killed him.

"You can't die. I have to end you all myself."

He muttered in his heart that there were three Golden Core cultivators and one Nascent Soul cultivator, Ye Wenzhong, who killed him once. He would be the one to deal the finishing blow and obtain four lucky draw chances.

If he found a chance to die a few more times, he could still also get more chances to draw the lottery.

"You want to fight?"

When Lu Jiu saw that Song Shi was a little impatient, he smiled and said, "They're not exhausted yet. Let's wait a little longer."

It could be seen that Lu Jiu had a strong grasp of timing and knew when to maximize the benefits.

The problem was that Song Shi's goal was not quite the same as the others.

He looked down at the battlefield and hesitated.

Now that the lucky draw was right in front of him, it was indeed quite tempting.

"Calm down. No matter what, the weakest of these guys is at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm. Not to mention that one of them is at the Nascent Soul realm, even if the people of the Heavenly Poison Sect are powerful, it should be very difficult to kill them in a short period of time."

Song Shi's gaze wavered. He stared at the movements of the key figures and prepared to wait for an opportunity to make a move.

His gaze was fixed on Ye Wenzhong and the other three. "They attacked me back then. Leave them to me later."

"No problem. Don't you want revenge? As long as there's a chance, I'll give it to you."

Lu Jiu chuckled. He wasn't too interested in killing anyone.

He raised his hand and formed a seal. He controlled the Crowd Control Dharma treasures spaceship to land on the ground. "Let's touch the ground later. This way, we'll be more hidden."

Everyone's expressions changed slightly. They thought that they had been discovered in advance.

In the end, the power of the Dharma treasures flew past them and shattered a tree in the distance. Then, it quietened down and no longer attacked.

"It must be a coincidence. Everyone, land on the ground first!"

Lu Jiu said nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter even if we're discovered at this time. At most, we'll kidnap and kill the Ye Family with them."

"I'll go scout the way first!"

Before the boat landed, Song Shi tapped lightly and turned into a Phantom image to leave. In a flash, he landed in the forest. A breeze blew past and a leaf swayed. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.

"What's this guy so anxious about? I've always believed in not making any moves even when I can but he's actually rushing over impatiently."

Ghost Butcher shook his head helplessly.

"People who cultivate Blood Dao cultivation techniques like blood the most. I reckon he also wants to devour more blood to refine his Dharma treasures."

Lu Jiu guessed that he had found the reason for Song Shi's impatience.

"Sect Master, now that you mention it, I remember that his Dharma treasure indeed has the potential to become Numinous artifacts. The Ye Family's golden blood is quite precious. Perhaps he will really succeed."

Ghost Butcher nodded.

Lu Jiu's eyes flickered. He turned to his daughter and said, "Youyou, try to stay away from him as much as possible in the future. This person is too bloodthirsty. His brain is abnormal."

"I'm not too close to him. If he doesn't provoke me, I don't want to talk to him." Lu Youyou snorted.

In the forest.

An afterimage suddenly shuttled past. The trees in front of him were swaying unsteadily. From time to time, a gust of wind would blow over. It could be seen that the battle was very intense.

Song Shi landed a thousand miles away from the edge of the battlefield. Even here, the surrounding vegetation had long been pulverized.

He looked at the two forces fighting in front of him and narrowed his eyes.

The battlefield was actually filled with all kinds of poisonous creatures: scorpions, poisonous snakes, bats, spiders…

The aura of these poisonous creatures was strange. Some of them made him feel danger coming from them.

The cultivators of the Heavenly Poison Sect basically hid behind poisonous creatures and attacked, causing some of the Ye Family members to be poisoned to death on the spot before they could even get close.

Song Shi suddenly felt dizzy. Then he realized that his surroundings were already filled with all kinds of poisonous gases. After breathing for a while, he felt his internal organs burning. His internal organs were being forced to detoxify, and he felt dizzy.

He shifted his gaze and realized that all kinds of poisonous substances were still releasing poison. Moreover, these poisonous gases were condensing and not dissipating. They were fusing and changing forms.

"Good lord, the longer we fight these guys, the more terrifying the poison here will be."

Song Shi felt that these guys were walking poison depots and were very suitable for him to farm deaths…

He swept his gaze around and his eyes darted around.

Boom!

After another intense collision, Song Shi saw that the defense of the Bronze chariot had been broken. The intense energy was released like a bomb.

When the aftershock spread, it formed a shocking gust. Endless dust, gravel, and soil flew everywhere.

The waves mixed with soil and rocks swept up the surrounding vegetation. For a moment, the sky was filled with dust, and most of the people were sent flying.

If Qi Refinement realm cultivators did not have the protection of Dharma artifacts and talismans, they would basically be torn apart by the aftershock in the air.

The Foundation Establishment realm and the Golden Core realm were slightly better. They needed to spend a lot of effort to stabilize their bodies.

On Song Shi's side, many people fell to the ground in a sorry state.

189 Golden Blood (2)

Seeing that the scene was chaotic and his vision was affected, his eyes lit up and locked onto one of them. Instead of retreating, he rushed forward to face the aftershock.

Ye Jingtian landed pathetically on the barren mountain slope. The silver armor on his body dimmed and many cracks appeared. The silver spear Dharma treasures in his hand dimmed.

His face was covered in dust as he stared at the Bronze chariot with an ugly expression. "These guys actually broke the Ye Family's chariot so quickly. They're really ferocious."

As he was thinking, the surrounding scenery suddenly distorted. A fog appeared, as if he had been pulled into another scene.

Before he could investigate, a dangerous aura suddenly surged from behind.

"He's quite fast. He dares to attack again before the aftershocks subside!"

He saw the reason. The aftershocks that were still wreaking havoc around him just now had turned into fog. Even his perception was disturbed. There must be an enemy who had used certain methods to achieve this.

Without hesitation, he turned around and stabbed. An afterimage dodged and a golden fist quickly enlarged in front of him.

"So fast!"

In his surprise, he had no choice but to retreat and hold the spear horizontally in front of him. With a crisp clang, the spear actually bent violently.

His hands were numb, and in the intense pain, he felt a terrifying force surging over. He could barely hold his spear and was directly smashed into the hill behind him by an overwhelming force.

BANG!

Song Shi's punch not only sent the fellow flying, but it also left a huge pit on the ground.

The latter fell into the pit and his body trembled, especially his hands. They were actually a little deformed, and his wrists were bleeding. He was directly injured by the fierce and domineering power.

Ye Jingtian's eyes widened in disbelief. "Who?"

The Ye Family had the bloodline of the Golden Divine Body. Their physical bodies had always been strong and indestructible like gold. This was the first time someone had suppressed their physical bodies head-on.

Weren't the people from the Heavenly Poison Sect skilled in using poison? Who had such a strong physique?

"The man who killed you."

Swoosh!

Song Shi instantly caught up and used the cover of the Reversal Array Disk to forcefully kill this target to get a chance to draw the lottery.

Ye Jingtian looked to be in his thirties and could be considered a young elite. He frowned as he stared at Song Shi, who was charging at him again. The power of the nine suns condensed into a circle of scorching energy, and there was a white light between his brows, like the moon.

His pupils contracted. "It's you!"

At such a close distance, how could he not tell Song Shi's identity? What surprised him was that he knew this person to be working hard for the Heavenly Ghost Sect. Why was he suddenly with the Heavenly Poison Sect?

Thinking of a possibility, just as he was about to question him, Song Shi had already activated the Dragon Subduing Palm without another word.

For a moment, fire dragons danced and heat waves surged. Song Shi was like a volcano, erupting with astonishing attacks.

Sensing Song Shi's domineering and scorching power, Ye Jingtian's expression changed slightly.

"This guy is too strong. How did he do it? His realm is even lower than mine!"

Ads by Pubfuture

He didn't understand. He, who had always been regarded as a genius of the Ye Family, was indeed arrogant. At this moment, he actually couldn't deal with a person who had possessed his body and re-cultivated.

"What's his physique? What cultivation technique does he cultivate? How can he have such a powerful physical body?"

He could not figure it out.

The powerful attack made him realize that he would be at a disadvantage if he fought head-on. He retreated again and gripped the spear tightly with both hands. Golden light shone brightly as he stabbed the spear at Song Shi's palm.

His stab was incomparably ruthless. A series of sonic booms sounded in the air, as if he wanted to pierce through Song Shi's palm.

However, Song Shi's attack suddenly changed midway. He turned his palm into a claw, and his dragon-shaped Nomological power twisted as he grabbed the spear.

A portion of the power continued to attack and bombarded the Nomological power barrier on Ye Jingtian's chest.

He used a variation of the Dragon Subduing Palm and forcefully changed his attack into a entanglement. His face turned red as he forcefully snatched the spear away.

"What!"

Seeing Song Shi ignore the backlash from forcefully changing his move and snatching his Dharma treasures away, he was stunned.

Did he not want to live anymore? Just now, he had such a strong outburst and suddenly changed his attack midway. At this moment, his physical strength must have been messed up by his Nomological power, right?

He was sent flying by a portion of the power of the Dragon Subduing Palm, and his chest was hit by the Nine Yang Nomological power. His clothes turned to ashes under the scorching palm force, leaving a charred handprint.

He spat out a mouthful of blood. After stabilizing himself, he sneered, "It must not be easy for you to change your strength at the last minute."

"It's nothing to me."

Song Shi did not care about the internal injuries caused by the unreasonable change of moves. To him, this kind of damage was nothing. It could not compare to death at all.

He stomped hard on the ground and shot out with a bang. He stabbed the other party's Dharma treasure back.

"This isn't a mortal weapon. So what if you snatch it away?"

Ye Jingtian sneered. With a thought, he formed a hand seal and controlled his Dharma treasures.

The spear trembled and shone brightly, trying to break free from his control.

Seeing that the thrust was not very accurate, Song Shi simply changed the direction of the spear and injected brute force into it, forcefully smashing it at the other party.

This time, the latter had time to use both hands to receive it. The spear smashed heavily into the other party's magical power barrier that had already been destroyed once, causing it to shatter in a violent distortion.

The spear struck the other party's body. The latter grunted and was sent flying again with a bloody wound on his arms.

Ye Jingtian could sense that the gap between them was huge, and his life would be in danger if he continued. But he was unwilling to give up. He had never been suppressed so easily by someone of a lower level.

He gritted his teeth and activated all the Dharmic powers in his body. The power of his bloodline also erupted, forming an even stronger power. The surrounding air clearly distorted because of his eruption.

At this moment, he had already unleashed all his strength and even exceeded his usual performance. In the end, a blood river drowned him, and his Nomological power was corroded at a terrifying speed.

"Oh no, I forgot that he also has Dharma treasures!"

He wanted to escape, but the blood river that drowned him was incomparably sticky. It was like a swamp, and it was very difficult for him to move.

"It's over!"

Just as he was panicking and screaming that something was wrong, he felt a pain between his eyebrows. Then, his consciousness began to blur.

There was a click.

A spear pierced through Ye Jingtian's head and nailed him to the ground.

He had obtained a lucky draw ticket!

Faint golden blood flowed out from between his brows. Song Shi took another look. "I didn't expect it to really be golden blood. No wonder it's called Golden Bloodline."

Brilliant Will-O-Wisp bloomed in the blood. It contained abundant energy and looked like the blood of a god. It was rather magical and extraordinary.

The blood-colored belt on his waist suddenly trembled, as if it had encountered something delicious. Then, the blood river took the initiative to surge towards his body and crazily devour the energy in his blood.

Song Shi could clearly sense that the Dharma treasures were rapidly improving after devouring the other party's flesh and blood essence.

"There's actually such an effect. Looks like this golden blood is very extraordinary. No wonder the Heavenly Poison Sect is also scheming."

Song Shi fell into deep thought. He felt that if the blood river could devour enough golden blood, it could probably be upgraded to the level of Numinous artifacts.

At this moment, the Life and Death Gu between his eyebrows began to move restlessly, but he ignored it.

As he controlled the Blood River to devour the latter's flesh and blood essence, he pulled out his spear at the same time.

The Dharma treasures buzzed. Due to the death of their master, their resistance gradually subsided.

He formed a seal and condensed runes. After a few seals, he put it away. Although Song Shi was temporarily unable to unleash its power, it was not a problem for him to use it as a normal weapon.

After killing this Golden Core cultivator, Song Shi grinned. He stabbed the spear to the side and formed a seal with both hands.

Thousand Transformations!

His flesh squirmed and his bones creaked. Song Shi quickly transformed into Ye Jingtian and looked around.

The storm outside had just subsided and the surrounding people did not know that a Golden Core Realm Martial King had died.

The area he was in was affected by the Array Formation. It was very difficult for outsiders to investigate. Under such circumstances, they did not dare to approach.

Song Shi threw out a fireball and easily turned Ye Jingtian's corpse into ashes.

Song Shi muttered, "The Blood River sucked him dry."

At this moment, a long black and white line appeared in the ashes. He grabbed it and put it away.

The Blood River quickly retracted its power and returned to its belt. This time, there was an additional golden line in the blood color. It looked a little impressive.

He didn't stay long. He quickly picked up the formation plate and approached the next 'lottery draw'.

He did not stop the array disc from releasing its power, so when he moved, the power of the Array Formation also moved, enveloping some other people.

"What's that!"

The members of the Heavenly Poison Sect and the Ye Family were on guard. The former thought that it was the latter's doing, and the latter thought so too.

The Ye Family's Golden Core cultivator was wary of the strange fog. When he saw the golden figure approaching and realized that it was one of his own, he heaved a sigh of relief, "Jingtian, have you fought with the owner of this fog?"

"No one."

Song Shi quickly approached. When the latter lost his guard, he thrust his spear over and said at the same time, "After all, the owner is me. How shall we fight?"

"You… you are not Jingtian!"

The person who was ambushed widened his eyes and looked at Song Shi.

190 Courting Only Quality Deaths (1)

It was too late to react now.

In a head-on battle, he was no match for Song Shi, let alone being ambushed at this moment.

The spear pierced through his head and ended him in the most direct and fastest way.

Under his indignant gaze, the Ye Family Elite fell to the ground and died. The blood river surged over and began to devour his flesh and blood.

At this moment, black and white Qi pulsed between Song Shi's brows, emitting a desire to devour.

"Here we go again!"

Song Shi pursed his lips and did not give the Life and Death Gu a chance, it still did not manage to devour the other party.

When he turned this person's corpse into ashes, another long black and white snake flew out. Its entire body contained the same unique energy.

This was formed from the other party's essence, qi, and spirit which was absorbed by the Life and Death Gu. If he wanted to, he could quickly refine it.

However, he was in the midst of a battle and it was not suitable for him to refine power of the same level. He hence put it away and continued to search for the last Golden Core target.

The latter was fighting with an old woman from the Heavenly Poison Sect. He should have been poisoned. At this moment, his face was green and black, and his breathing was a little hurried.

The golden blood on his body seemed to be boiling as he released a powerful force to resist the invasion of the toxins. He could still maintain his combat strength and occasionally rebuff the old woman back.

"Hehe, the toxin will invade your heart very soon. You actually dare to use the power of your bloodline now."

The old woman sneered sinisterly. The top of the walking stick Dharma treasures in her hand was a green snake's head. It was constantly releasing wisps of poisonous gas that enveloped the nearby green poisonous fog.

She only focused on defense. No matter how the other party attacked, she was not in a hurry. It was obvious that she wanted to drag the other party to death.

"Soon, our reinforcements will arrive. All of you shady beasts will die!"

The Ye Family cultivator sneered and forcefully endured the discomfort in his body. He waved the Dharma treasures in his hand and the toxic air was sliced open. Even the poisonous fog could not approach for the time being.

At this moment, the green fog beside him twisted slightly. Then, wisps of white fog appeared and enveloped the green fog, quickly changing its color.

Seeing that her poisonous gas was somehow affected by something, the old woman was stunned for a moment. She could tell that this method did not come from her own people.

Song Shi disguised himself as Ye Jingtian and appeared in the fog. He said to the Ye Family's Golden Core cultivator, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and come over."

The latter was surprised. He saw that the white fog came from a special Array Formation Power and said in surprise, "Jingtian, when did you obtain this thing? It looks quite practical."

"Cut the crap. If you don't come over, you can continue to wait for death."

The old woman frowned and raised her walking stick. The snake head seemed to come alive and instantly turned into a dark green snake. It opened its mouth and bit at its target.

"God Slayer!"

A stunning sword light was released and cut off the snake formed by Nomological power. The latter's face became even paler.

He was already poisoned. The more he used his power, the faster the toxin would infest him.

Without any hesitation, he retreated into the fog. With his back facing Song Shi, he said, "Jingtian, sorry to trouble you. Give me some time to detoxify the poison."

"Pfft."

A sword tip appeared between his brows and blood gushed out.

"What's the point of detoxifying? Just die. Then there won't be any trouble for me."

Song Shi reached out and grabbed the latter's arm, suppressing him on the spot. The latter turned his head with difficulty to look at his clansman.

The other party's cold gaze already proved that this was not the real Ye Jingtian.

"Who are you!"

He questioned with difficulty. Even until his death, he wanted to know who had schemed against him.

"I never changed my name. I'm Blood Robes, Blood Robes that dye the mountains and rivers red!"

Song Shi smiled. "If you want revenge, find me in hell."

"You… shameless!"

The Ye Family elder cursed with his eyes wide open. His brain and soul were shattered by the power of the sword and he died on the spot.

"Ding… congratulations on killing the target of death. You are rewarded with one chance to draw the lottery."

The notification beside his ear made Song Shi grin. "Wait, I said wrongly. Your soul has been destroyed by me, so you probably won't have a chance to go to hell."

On the other side, the old woman outside the fog was about to give chase when her nostrils suddenly shrank.

She subtly picked up the scent of blood. She stopped in her tracks and stared at the fog. She thought that her cultivators had been killed.

"This is the Array Formation Power, but it can move. It should have come from the array disc. Although it doesn't affect me too much, there are at least two of them in there. Just in case, it's better to find a helper to enter together."

She turned around to see who was free and found that several people of the same level were free. She was not too busy and said in surprise, "Where are your prey? Weren't you fighting previously?"

"They were all swallowed by a fog. They're probably gathering now. It's best for everyone to gather together so that they won't be defeated one by one."

The inner sect disciple of the Heavenly Poison Sect who had fought Ye Jingtian shrugged. "Because I didn't know the situation in the fog, I didn't enter as it was too rash."

"My thoughts are similar to yours. Now, let's join forces and explore. Let's see who it is!"

The three of them gathered and used their defensive methods to charge into the fog with their Dharma treasures.

Song Shi was dealing with the corpses when he saw the old woman with her head wrapped in red cloth approaching with two other fellows. One of them was wrapped in a red cloth while the other was wrapped in a white cloth like a mummy. The corners of his mouth could not help but twitch.

As expected, they thought that he was from the Ye Family since he pretended to be from the Ye family to ambush the Ye family. Moreover, the people from the Heavenly Poison Sect could not see the situation clearly hence it was quite normal for them to mistake the Ye Family for targeting them.

He did not want to reveal his identity at this time. At this moment, the power of the Yin Yang Reversal Formation Disc was not enough to resist the three Golden Cores. After thinking for a moment, Song Shi decided to continue pretending to be Ye Jingtian to see if he could die a few more times.

191 Courting Only Quality Deaths (1)

Outside, after the three of them approached the fog, they looked at each other and tacitly separated. They started advancing in a triangular formation.

The old woman with the highest cultivation level walked in front. She made a hand gesture to slow down and stared at the fog warily. Her walking stick hit the ground a few times.

She released her Nomological power which transformed into a group of small snakes. They swam towards the fog in different directions and probed the way first.

As soon as they entered, a sword light lit up for an instant, and the snakes' heads that reached in were cut off. Then, its entire body collapsed as it twisted, turning into energy and dissipating.

Seeing the sword light, the old woman suddenly raised her head and sneered. "Ye Jingtian is the only one attacking for the time being. Ye Sai has already been poisoned by my snake venom and can't use much of his strength. I don't think there will be many people inside. Let's kill our way in first!"

"Hehe, just from the fact that he's hiding inside like a chicken, a coward, and a scaredy cat, I can tell that their situation isn't good."

The mummy-like elder beside him let out a strange laugh. It sounded like rusty iron rubbing against each other, and it was especially ear-piercing.

"I don't think this array formation is very powerful. Let's release the poison first!"

The other person was much more cautious. Blood-colored shadows shot out from under his feet. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in the fog and approached Song Shi.

Song Shi saw that it was a living creature this time. It was a breed of special red ants. At this moment, they condensed into a ball. After landing, it suddenly exploded.

The red ants instantly filled the nearby space and quickly crawled everywhere. The things left behind on the way corroded the ground and grass, leaving an obvious mark.

As there were a lot of them, Song Shi's location was quickly located. The group of ants looked small, but they were extremely powerful in numbers.

"Good move!"

This time, Song Shi could not kill the ants with his sword. Instead, he released a circle of fireballs, wanting to burn these ants to death.

A strange scene happened. These ants were actually not afraid of fire, or rather, the fireball was of a harmless threat to them. They were still approaching.

As long as an ant discovered him, the other ants would quickly notice him.

The elder of the Heavenly Poison Sect who released the ants outside sneered. "My Poison Fire Ants are not afraid of fire. You can see how terrifying it is to be bitten by ants."

Song Shi frowned when he heard that. He was not afraid of death, but being bitten to death by a group of ants would definitely be torture.

At this moment, bugs also emerged from the mummy-like creature's body. However, they were pitch-black and looked a little like cockroaches. They were densely packed. After crawling out, they surged towards Song Shi.

He felt his scalp go numb. Among the three of them, only the old woman was normal. She used snake venom. It was fine if these two guys raised bugs, but this guy actually raised his bugs on his own body. It was disgusting.

The black bugs seemed to have determined his location before the Poison Fire Ants. They emitted a strange sizzling sound and surged towards him with a purpose.

He didn't want to become bug food and immediately retreated a hundred feet away with a frown. Then, he realized that these black bugs were rushing towards the corpses of the Ye Family cultivators who hadn't been completely devoured by the blood river.

"This thing can detect the smell of blood!"

"F*ck, it's not easy to die like this, I won't play with you guys anymore!"

He cursed and lifted the Blood River to sweep up the corpse. He turned around and left.

Now that his body was strong, it was difficult for him to die immediately even if he was poisoned. If he had to be bitten to death by a bunch of insects, he would rather not die.

He, Song Shi, also followed a certain standard. How could he die so easily?

Even if he was courting death, the quality of the deaths had to be high enough, the death had to be straightforward, or else he had to die while enjoying himself.

He would definitely reject being tortured to death, it was a fate worse than death itself. Unless it was in a beggars can't be choosers situation.

"Escaping?"

Sensing Song Shi's movements, the mummy sneered. "Hehe, was he afraid? The three of us attacking together actually scared him away. This means that their situation is not good."

"Where do you think you're going? Do you think you can get away from us?"

The three of them sneered. After confirming that the other party was in a feeble state, they stopped probing and increased their speed with their Dharma treasures, charging into the fog.

"…"

Song Shi did not expect these three people to still dare to chase after him. Did they really think that he was easy to bully?

He glanced at the battlefield and realized that many Ye Family cultivators had been poisoned to death. At this moment, other than using the Life and Death Gu to devour the power of the dead, they were also extracting the blood of the Ye Family cultivators.

As for the independent cultivators who followed the Ye Family to the ruins, they had all escaped. He actually did not notice this.

Originally, the Ye Family had brought many independent cultivators to help. Now that they were in danger, they took the opportunity to slip away one by one, greatly weakening the Ye Family's strength.

The Heavenly Poison Sect did not stop these cultivators from escaping. Instead, they were happy to see this happening.

Without the help of the independent cultivators, the situation has become one-sided.

Just as he was about to force the three of them to use their Dharma treasures to give him a quick death, the sound of thunder came from the distant sky.

Their expressions changed and they stopped in their tracks.

On the horizon, three huge Bronze chariots charged over.

Song Shi stopped in his tracks and stared at the chariot with a surprised expression, "The Ye Family's reinforcements are actually so fast!"

He was glad that he had acted early and ambushed the Ye Family when their formation was interrupted by the Heavenly Poison Sect. Otherwise, it would be much more difficult to kill the three Golden Cores now.

Boom!

Before the Bronze War Chariot approached, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled amidst the bright light. Bolts of lightning struck first, blasting many Heavenly Poison Sect cultivators away.

Ye Wenzhong laughed loudly. "You didn't expect this, did you? I asked my clansmen to come and receive us in advance. Do you really think you can kill us at our doorstep?"

The Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons looked at the reinforcements and smiled playfully, "When did I say that I wanted to annihilate all of you? I just wanted to take some blood."

A few worms that looked like leeches swam between his fingers. They were golden in color and had clearly swallowed a lot of blood. And the blood belonged to Ye Wenzhong.

"We're almost done with the collection of blood. Everyone, retreat."

Just as he gave the order to retreat, he suddenly sensed something. His expression changed slightly as he retreated a little. He raised his hand and threw a ball of colorful poisonous smoke at Ye Wenzhong.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Hmph, do you think you can bully the Ye Family whenever you want?"

Ye Wenzhong's spear shot out like a dragon. The golden spear shadow broke through the poisonous smoke and chased after him in large strides.

When his vision became affected, the Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons smiled smugly.

Black gas churned under the poisonous smoke. Chains suddenly shot out and quickly wrapped around the golden spear. At the same time, they landed on Ye Wenzhong.

The latter did not expect that there would be an ambush attack and was shocked. Golden light erupted from his body and he wanted to break free from the chain, but the power of extreme Yin suddenly surged out from the chain and sealed his Dharma power.

At this moment, there was a flash of light beside him. He felt pain all over his body and screamed. A large number of Leech worms bit through his defense and burrowed into his body. Making it look like there were many terrifying bumps on his body.

The surrounding poisonous smoke invaded through the wound, and his skin turned colorful. His Nomological power quickly weakened.

Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons' poison and Lu Jiu's sneak attack, Soul Binding Chains, easily suppressed him on the spot.

He looked at the chain in shock and anger. "Lu Jiu, it's you!"

Having fought with Lu Jiu before, how could he not recognize the chains that bound his Dharma treasures and body? However, he did not expect that the Heavenly Ghost Sect would also ambush them.

"Patriarch Ye, just because there are reinforcements doesn't mean that they can save you."

Lu Jiu appeared behind Ye Wenzhong. At the same time, Ghost Butcher and the others also appeared. They originally wanted to wait for the fight to die down before reaping the benefits. When they sensed that reinforcements had arrived, they decisively chose to cooperate with the Heavenly Poison Sect.

Otherwise, they might not be able to achieve anything today.

"Patriarch!"

When the reinforcements on the Bronze Chariot saw Ye Wenzhong's encounter, they shouted anxiously and immediately rushed over.

"Stop them!"

Lu Jiu waved his hand and stared at Ye Wenzhong, "You must die today!"

Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons chuckled, "Sect Master Lu, if not for the reinforcements, you would have taken advantage of our Heavenly Poison Sect today. This is not how an ally behaves."

As he spoke, he also arranged for extra people to block the reinforcements.

Originally, the number of cultivators in a family like the Ye Family could not compare to a sect, so they brought a group of independent cultivators to support them.

Now that the independent cultivators had fled, their numbers were severely insufficient. It would not be a problem for them to work with the Heavenly Ghost Sect to stop the Ye Family's reinforcements.

"Hehe, Old Poison, we're all from Demonic Cult. There's no need to say such pompous words." Lu Jiu smiled faintly.

Everyone knew that unscrupulousness was a characteristic of the Demonic Cults.

"Alright, but we can't be at a disadvantage. I want this old man's heart blood and soul!"

The Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons did not waste his breath on Lu Jiu and stated his request.

"No problem."

Lu Jiu happily agreed.

192 Possessed by the Golden Armor Heavenly God (1)

Hearing that the two of them were actually discussing how to divide him up, Ye Wenzhong's eyes instantly darkened.

He knew that he was at a dead end and that no one would be able to help him in a short period of time. Fury appeared in his eyes. "Alright, I really didn't expect my Ye Family to be worthy of the siege of the two demonic sects. However, it won't be so easy to kill me."

Pointing at his heart, the golden blood in his body boiled. He formed a seal with both hands and shouted with a solemn expression, "Golden-armored Heavenly God Possession!"

The golden light on his body shone brightly, and the Nomological power barrier appeared again. It quickly thickened, and a terrifying aura brewed.

A golden Axe divine pattern appeared between his brows. A mysterious, dignified, and domineering aura spread out. The surrounding Void distorted, and the poisonous insects that entered his body were forced out one by one.

"Hmph!"

With an angry snort, Ye Wenzhong's old hair danced in the air as his body rapidly expanded. With a crack, Lu Jiu's chains were actually broken.

"This old man is going all out!"

Lu Jiu's expression changed. After raising his hand, another chain shot out and wrapped around Ye Wenzhong to stop him from erupting.

The Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons waved his robe and three sharp and poisonous flying daggers shot out at an even faster speed.

Ding, ding, ding!

The Dharma treasures and flying daggers were actually blocked by the energy barrier released by Ye Wenzhong and could not advance even an inch.

At this moment, his eyes were golden. A giant figure appeared out of thin air behind him. It was more than a thousand meters tall and stood among the cultivators like a huge mountain.

This figure was covered in golden armor and held a huge axe in his hand. His eyes were like the sun, without any emotions. He looked down at all living beings as if he was looking at ants.

A terrifying domineering might enveloped the world. For a moment, the wind and clouds changed, and the sun and moon lost their color. Only the Golden Armor Heavenly God reigned supreme in the world.

The hearts of the two demonic sects sank, and their souls trembled. They felt insignificant and they even lost their fighting spirit when facing the Golden Armor Heavenly God.

The Ye Family members' blood boiled and their aura surged. They shouted fervently, "Heavenly God, Heavenly God!"

"This thing is quite cool. It looks even more powerful than the evil god projection."

Song Shi looked up at the phantom of the god that possessed Ye Wenzhong. Could this be the so-called summoning of a god?

"There must be a generous reward for being killed by this thing, right?"

His gaze shifted, and he had a thought.

"What a joke. He's just a phantom. How dare he call himself a Heavenly God?"

"An ant dares to touch a god?"

The Golden Armor Heavenly God spoke in a buzzing voice, as if it had a certain level of consciousness. This was similar to the projection of the evil god that Song Shi had encountered back then.

However, the difference was that the Heretic God's projection relied on a blood sacrifice and an Array Formation. This phantom God should have used Ye Wenzhong's bloodline to unleash some power.

However, after careful observation, he realized that the mastermind was still Ye Wenzhong. It was not the true consciousness of a god.

In the face of Lu Jiu's attack, the Golden Armor Heavenly God's axe gently lowered. With a loud bang, Lu Jiu's ghost hand shattered and he was forced back.

The huge axe paused for a moment before slashing down at Lu Jiu. The void in its path was vaguely broken.

Lu Jiu dodged with fear. With a bang, a canyon-like Fissure was split open in the ground.

The Golden Armor Heavenly God's hand descended and grabbed at the Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons. The latter immediately turned into a ball of colorful poisonous fog.

The golden hand squeezed casually and the air exploded. The Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons grunted and revealed his physical body, suffering some losses.

"I'm going to slay a god today!"

Ads by Pubfuture

Ghost Butcher, who was blocking the reinforcements, roared when he saw that the sect master was at a disadvantage. His Nomological power transformed into a huge evil spirit that rushed over and knocked the Golden Armor Heavenly God back.

As he attacked this phantom, the other people from the Demonic Sect also came back to their senses. They were no longer too afraid and continued to attack.

"Piss off!"

The Golden Armor Heavenly God swung his axe. With a deafening sound, the giant phantom's body was sent flying. Blood flowed from the corner of Ghost Butcher's mouth.

There was fear in his eyes. "This old dog already has the strength comparable to the Soul Transformation realm after being possessed by a god. I can't fight him head-on."

The difference between the Soul Transformation realm and the Nascent Soul realm was huge. It was like the difference between the Golden Core realm and the Foundation Establishment realm. There was an obvious qualitative change.

In fact, the Soul Transformation realm should be called the Essence Soul realm, which refers to cultivating the Essence Soul. As for why it was called the Soul Transformation realm, it was because this realm could mobilize the power of some gods and transform one into gods.

Ye Wenzhong had relied on his special bloodline to achieve this in advance. For the time being, no one was his match.

At the same time, the Golden Armor Heavenly God's body shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye.

When Lu Jiu and the other two saw this, their eyes lit up.

"Haha, this old dog can't hold on for long with the strength of a Nascent Soul."

The Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons laughed out loud. "After exhausting his strength, he will be as weak as a dead dog by the roadside."

He activated his poisonous fog Dharma treasures and rushed forward, preparing to deliberately consume Ye Wenzhong's Dharmic powers.

Ye Wenzhong, who had just enjoyed the pleasure of his sudden increase in strength, was shocked. Even with his Nascent Soul cultivation and bloodline power, he could not withstand such a level of consumption.

He did not dare to tangle with the three Nascent Souls anymore and walked towards the reinforcements.

He waved his huge axe and blocked the attacks of Lu Jiu and the other two Nascent Soul cultivators. At the same time, he forced the nearby cultivators of the Demonic Cults to retreat with the Ye Family.

Song Shi saw that Ye Wenzhong was retreating and thought for a moment. He maintained Ye Jingtian's appearance and followed the Ye Family members closer to Ye Wenzhong.

The latter's strength was rapidly depleting. After moving a dozen times just now, its body had already shrunk by more than half and was now less than a thousand feet.

193 Possessed by the Golden Armor Heavenly God (2)

"He looks strong on the outside but is weak on the inside."

Song Shi saw through Ye Wenzhong's situation. A cold glint flashed across his eyes as he continued to approach without a trace.

Seeing that Ye Wenzhong was approaching the reinforcements without resistance and was about to congregate with them, Lu Jiu gave up on stopping him and chose to attack with his words.

"Old dog Ye, if you burn your bloodline power like this, even if you escape, you'll be crippled for life!"

The Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons felt that it was a pity. He had not expected this old dog to work so hard which robbed him of the chance of obtaining the most precious blood essence. He could only mock, "Hehe, when we return, the youngsters of the clan might usurp the throne."

Ye Wenzhong stopped in front of the three Bronze chariots and stared at the two people from the Demonic Sect. "Even if I'm crippled today, someone will naturally avenge me. The connection between bloodlines is not something you bastards can understand."

He had a proud expression as the golden Nomological power on his body dissipated. The phantom behind him slowly dissipated, and his originally gray hair turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The wrinkles on his face kept increasing, and his inflatable flesh began to shrivel. He lost his luster and instantly became old.

However, his eyes were bright and determined, and his expression was solemn and proud. He actually had the feeling of a tragic hero in his twilight years.

When Lu Jiu, who was standing at the side, saw this, he muttered in his heart, "I actually became a villain in the end, but who asked you to attack me first?"

"Jingtian, where are Ye Sai and the others?"

Ye Wenzhong asked in a hoarse voice when he saw that the number of Golden Core cultivators around him had clearly decreased.

"Dead."

Song Shi said.

"How is that possible? Even if it's two against one, they shouldn't have died so quickly!"

Ye Wenzhong's body trembled, and he immediately realized that something was wrong.

Puchi!

A sword pierced through his heart and pierced through his chest.

It wasn't that Song Shi wanted to reveal himself, but he had sensed Ye Wenzhong's suspicions. At the same time, since his body was stronger, and it wasn't easy to pierce through his skull, Song Shi chose to pierce his heart which was situated at a weaker area of his body.

At the same time, a sword blade from his other hand slashed down and landed on Ye Wenzhong's neck.

"Bastard!"

Song Shi took a step back, and Ye Wenzhong also staggered back. Most of his neck had been cut off, and some of his flesh was lopsided as blood flowed out.

"Patriarch!"

The elders of the Ye Family on the Bronze Chariot exclaimed. They did not expect that he would be in danger when he was almost safe.

"Imbecile, stop!"

Ads by Pubfuture

They shouted and jumped out one after another, hurriedly flying over to support.

A circle of golden light appeared on Song Shi's body. He quickly approached the injured Ye Wenzhong and grinned. "Chief, I'm already dead. Accompany me."

"You killed Jingtian and the others!"

Ye Wenzhong held his chest that was spewing blood and used one hand to straighten his head. His powerful vitality prevented him from dying immediately even after half his head has been nearly severed. He could still stare at Song Shi with wide eyes.

How could he not tell that Song Shi had pretended to be Ye Jingtian?

The surrounding people felt their hair stand on end. They had not realized that Song Shi was pretending. They had been too careless.

In freality, Song Sh had just used his Thousand Transformations Technique more frequently recently. It had already reached the third level of Qi Transformation and could now disguise one's aura. If one was not familiar with the technique, it would be very difficult to detect any abnormalities.

At this moment, they were already on the battlefield. The Ye Family members were nervous and their attention was all on Lu Jiu and the others from the Demonic Cults. How could they have the time to notice that something was wrong with Song Shi.

"Patriarch Ye is indeed smart. You deduced the outcome with just a few words."

Song Shi grinned and turned into a fiery light that instantly arrived in front of Ye Wen. With a bang, he attacked him again.

Under the violent collision, Ye Wenzhong's head tilted again and blood spurted out like spring water.

"You have a death wish!"

At the present, next to them were two Golden Core cultivators who followed Ye Wenzhong to retreat. At this moment, their faces were filled with anger as they attacked Song Shi with their weapons.

Crash!

A chain also took the opportunity to fly out from behind Ye Wenzhong and wrap around his body. It pulled with all its might and Ye Wenzhong flew towards Lu Jiu.

At the side, Ghost Butcher, whose face was a little pale, laughed loudly. "Haha, Blood-Robed old ghost, you're really a f*cking talent. I was wondering why you suddenly disappeared. It turns out that you were pretending to be a member of the Ye Family to launch a sneak attack."

The Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons looked at Song Shi in surprise as well. "You do have the ability of having a thousand transformations. I wonder where you learned such divine powers and spells."

Song Shi fought the two Golden Cores with his bare hands and he only retreated a little. His hands were like gold, and his right hand was unscathed when it collided with the sharp Dharma treasures.

He turned around and said, "Don't snatch my kill!"

Lu Jiu shrugged, "Don't worry, I won't snatch it from you. However, you should end him quickly to prevent any accidents from happening."

Song Shi did not stop at that moment. He used the impact of the collision to quickly tap the ground twice and quickly escaped to catch up to Ye Wenzhong, who was entangled in the chains.

"Old man, you shouldn't have provoked me. I'm a stubborn person. Whoever kills me has to die."

He appeared beside Ye Wenzhong, who was instantly entangled like a cocoon. However, the golden Will-O-Wisp on his short neck was flowing, and he was desperately healing himself, wanting to stop bleeding.

If hsi wound really healed, it might just become a bowl-sized scar.

Seeing Song Shi approach, Ye Wenzhong, who no longer had the strength to resist, knew that he had become a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. He could only say resentfully, "Blood-Robed old ghost, kill me then. The Ye Family will not rest until you die!"

"Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

Song Shi was disdainful. After his left hand was sealed, he only had the sharp sword left to attack. Ye Wenzhong's head, which was only left with a layer of skin, was completely cut off. Ye Wenzhong's strength completely collapsed.

Ads by Pubfuture

"Blood-Robed old ghost, I'll make you die a horrible death!"

The head said resentfully. Then, golden light flashed in its body, and an enfeeble Golden Nascent Soul flew out, turning into a beam of light that rushed towards Song Shi.

He did not choose to escape. There were still three Nascent Souls eyeing him covetously. Moreover, one of them was very good at controlling souls. He could not leave at all.

He only had one choice. He could only "die" to "live" again. He would possess the Blood-Robed old ghost's body and even though this would reduce his cultivation by a major realm, he would have a chance to survive.

"Be careful, this old dog wants to possess you!"

Lu Jiu's expression changed. He wanted to entangle Ye Wenzhong's Nascent Soul, but the two of them were too close. Before his Dharma treasure chains could approach, the latter rushed into Song Shi's body.

The Nascent Soul was the crystallization of a cultivator's essence, qi, and spirit. Ye Wenzhong's soul was also among them.

Compared to the soul of a soul under the Nascent Soul realm, which was like water without roots or wood without roots, a Nascent Soul realm soul could replenish a portion of its power.

Of course, the price was not small. After succeeding, he would definitely lose his Nascent Soul and his cultivation would regress to Song Shi's level.

However, he was left with no other choice but to possess this person.

"Good timing!"

When Song Shi realized what was happening, he revealed an excited expression.

A powerful force surged into his body. Then, his body stiffened and he could no longer control himself.

A powerful resistance invaded his mind, tore apart his consciousness space, and charged in majestically.

"Blood-Robed old ghost, you've possessed someone else. Today, I'll let you experience the feeling of being possessed!"

Ye Wenzhong's tone was venomous. Although he had a chance to live after possessing the body, he would completely lose the bloodline of the Ye Family. In the Ye Family, where blood was respected, his actions today were destined to bring about awkward confrontation about his position in the future.

The most important thing was that after possessing a body, one would need to spend a large amount of time fusing their soul with the body. Their cultivation path would be greatly affected.

In his mental world, a huge lunar star floated. Song Shi's soul sat cross-legged under the star and quietly looked at Ye Wenzhong, who was like a golden sun.

"It's still not easy to kill a Nascent Soul cultivator. With a Nascent Soul, it's equivalent to having an extra life."

Song Shi muttered, "But that's good too. If you come to possess me, I'll gain more than if I just kill you."

There was excitement in his eyes. As he cultivated Spiritual strength, cultivators of the same level could not possess him. He had to rely on this kind of person who was stronger than him.

Sensing Song Shi's abnormal calmness, Ye Wenzhong felt uneasy. He pretended to be fierce, but he was cowardly on the inside, "I think you're mentally unstable. You still want to reap benefits now? Die!"

He instantly transformed into a Golden Armor Heavenly God and stirred up a storm, causing his mental world to tremble violently.

In the mental world, Spiritual strength was consumed. He could hence change into anything he wanted and did not need to worry about insufficient Nomological power.

"God Slayer!"

He used his divine power and the huge axe tore through the Spiritual Space. With a bang, it split the Lunar Star that Song Shi had condensed into two.

Below him, Song Shi's expression changed. His hands turned into palms, and two ten-thousand-foot-long dragons flew out. In the end, they were still shattered.

"The soul power of a Nascent Soul is indeed quite strong."

Song Shi stood in his turbulent mental world without panicking, "Unfortunately, I'm invincible."

194 Qian Dragon Token (1)

In the outside world.

Song Shi stood rooted to the ground, the light in his eyes flickering non-stop. This was a battle between the two consciousnesses.

Lu Jiu frowned as he looked at Song Shi, who had been possessed. "The Blood-Robed old ghost was too careless and gave Ye Wenzhong the opportunity to possess him."

Cultivators could possess others, but they could also use methods to prevent themselves from being possessed. They had relevant Dharma treasures and talismans for that purpose.

"That's only if he can afford it. If he possesses someone else to recover his cultivation, his wealth will probably be almost exhausted. It's not easy to buy Dharma treasures and talismans that can stop a Nascent Soul realm cultivator from possessing him."

Ghost Butcher shook his head. He did not think that Song Shi could afford these methods.

"He can't stop Ye Wenzhong's possession. Kill him. We can't give that old dog a chance to live!"

The Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons appeared at the side and pointed the poisonous blade in his hand at Song Shi's glabella.

Lu Jiu and Ghost Butcher hesitated for a moment but did not stop him.

They had the same thoughts as the Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons and did not believe that Song Shi could win in the possession.

This way, it would be easy to kill Ye Wenzhong directly.

At this moment, Lu Youyou said, "Why should we kill him? If we capture him, the Ye Family will become wary and give in to us."

"Kid, you are too ignorant. The Ye Family only cares about bloodline, if he loses his physical body, he will no longer be considered a member of the Ye Family."

The Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons mocked as he stabbed the poisonous blade in his hand at Song Shi's glabella.

In his mental world, Song Shi could sense Poison Perfected Lord attacking him, but he could not effectively control his body to dodge.

Ding!

Something knocked the poisonous blade away, causing sparks to fly.

"Don't go overboard!"

Among the reinforcements from the Ye Family, a silver-haired old man walked out. His cultivation was deep and he was also at the Nascent Soul realm.

"Ye Wending, I didn't expect you to be the one to come as reinforcement. Then I will have to kill Ye Wenzhong even more."

Lu Jiu's face suddenly contorted. The chains wrapped around Song Shi and pulled him away from the Ye Family.

"Hahaha, you're mentioning me as a son-in-law at this time? Ridiculous!"

Not only him, but Lu Youyou's eyes were also filled with obvious resentment.

Lu Jiu dragged Song Shi back and threw him beside the Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons. "Kill him quickly!"

The Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons waved his hand and attacked without hesitation.

"Don't you dare!"

Ye Wending rushed over but was blocked by Ghost Butcher.

Swoosh!

The poisonous blade entered Song Shi's head with some difficulty. The Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons was surprised. "This fellow's bones are really tough. It's like Dharma treasures. Fortunately, he didn't use much Nomological power to resist. Otherwise, it would be difficult to kill him."

He grabbed the poisonous blade and twisted it. At the same time, he released the poison to destroy Song Shi's brain, not leaving a living body for Ye Wenzhong.

Lu Jiu fiddled with his fingers, and the rattling chains interwove into a huge net that enveloped Song Shi.

This way, even if Ye Wenzhong's Nascent Soul wanted to escape, it would be blocked by the Soul Lock Chain.

When Song Shi's body lost its vitality, Ye Wenzhong's Nascent Soul had no choice but to leave and be completely wiped out.

"This fellow… died just like that?"

Lu Youyou stared blankly as Song Shi's head turned black. Her expression was complicated.

"He doesn't know how to keep a low profile. If he doesn't die, who will?"

Shi Tianya was disdainful, but he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.

After this Blood-Robed old ghost came to the Heavenly Ghost Sect, he had felt immense pressure. It was best if he died.

"What a pity. He's actually quite powerful."

Fang Gang felt a little regretful, "He's just too arrogant. How dare he provoke such a powerful enemy."

Sensing that his body had suffered a heavy blow, Song Shi, who was in his Spiritual Space, was speechless. "F*ck, this Old Dog hasn't even destroyed my soul, but I was actually killed by my own people!"

These guys were indeed from the Demonic Cults. They were not hesitant when they decided on their own people.

As his physical body was killed and his soul was destroyed, the power of his soul quickly weakened.

Ye Wenzhong also sensed that Song Shi's body had suffered a fatal attack. He shouted angrily, "Damn it, you didn't even give me a chance to possess you. If I go out, I'll die."

He was very indignant. A cultivator's Nascent Soul was indeed considered a second life, but without a body to bear it, it would be very weak.

Song Shi, whose soul was rapidly weakening, glanced at him, "What's the hurry? I'll give you a surprise later."

As he spoke, his physical body quickly died, reaching the standard of death.

"Your body has been poisoned to death. Poison Resistance 1,000!"

"You have absorbed strength from death and obtained 500 Freedom Attribute Points!"

"You will be resurrected in three seconds!"

"No resurrection location set. Resurrection on the spot by default!"

"You can choose an alternate resurrection point. Do you want to choose?"

Song Shi thought for a moment and chose to revive on the spot.

This was because he sensed that Ye Wenzhong still had the strength to run in his state, and Lu Jiu's Dharma treasure outside could lock him up. If he revived elsewhere, he might very well escape.

"You've chosen to revive on the spot!"

Three seconds passed.

Song Shi's turbulent mental world instantly stabilized. The situation here became even better than when Ye Wenzhong first entered.

Ye Wenzhong, who was already in despair, was stunned. What was going on?

"How is it? Is this surprise alright?"

Song Shi smiled as he looked at Ye Wenzhong, who was still in his mental world, and he became certain of two things.

Ye Wenzhong who had possessed him had not been expelled because of his resurrection. A special program must have been erected by the system. At this moment, both parties were assumed to be one.

The second was the Life and Death Gu. This thing did not disappear or was ejected because of his death. It had probably become a parasite or something.

He became cautious. His resurrection did not seem to be able to farm off any special statuses like being possessed. It also could not even farm off Gu.

"Let's continue!"

Song Shi said. Since Ye Wenzhong's soul possession had not stopped, he had to let Ye Wenzhong kill him a few more times.

195 Qian Dragon Token (2)

However, he had to cover what happened up.

He split a portion of his thoughts to stimulate the blood river and fused his entire body into it, trying his best to hide his resurrection.

"Something's wrong with you!"

Ye Wenzhong stared at Song Shi. He could clearly sense that Song Shi's condition had suddenly improved. This was illogical and abnormal.

"Scram if you're afraid. I'll blow up your Nascent Soul."

Song Shi was disdainful. If this fellow really did not want to possess him, ge would not be able to force him to. He could only attack him with words to provoke him.

"I won't retreat, I have no way out anyways. Today, I'll see what you're up to."

Ye Wenzhong stared at Song Shi as he transformed into the Golden Armor Heavenly God again and charged over.

Compared to the earth-shattering spiritual world, the outside world seemed a little calm.

Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons looked at the surging blood river and said in surprise, "You can still activate a blood secret skill under such circumstances? Or is this Dharma treasure protecting itself?"

"Father, is he dead or not?"

Lu Youyou was curious.

"He's not dead. He used a special method to fuse into the Blood River. This method of avoiding physical attacks is indeed quite powerful."

Lu Jiu shook his head and looked at the thick blood river. "However, his trouble this time is no longer physical, but in his soul. He's still doomed."

"That's interesting. Let's not kill him now and see if he can pull off some kind of miracle."

The Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons' eyes flickered as he sized up the blood river with interest.

Seeing that the Blood-Robed old ghost actually had a life-saving method, Ye Wending, who was having a headache because Ye Wenzhong's Nascent Soul was in the hands of Lu Jiu and the others, regained some hope.

"Lu Jiu, Old Poison, you'd better hand him over. Don't force our Ye Family to attack!"

Faced with this threat, Lu Jiu chuckled. "Go. It's best if you call out those people who are already half-dead in your family to attack."

"Lu Jiu, he's one of your people. It's up to you to decide whether to kill him or not. I've already obtained what I want, so I'm not interested in wasting time here!"

The Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons pinched the round and golden bug on his stomach, indicating his intention to retreat.

Lu Jiu had no objections. Now that the Ye Family was completely alarmed and mobilized, it would become more and more troublesome if they continued fighting.

"According to the agreement, the blood is ours!"

The Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons walked over and grabbed Ye Wenzhong's headless corpse. He took out the golden heart. The golden blood inside was a little dry already.

"The old dog used a large amount of blood essence to cast a forbidden technique. There's only one drop left."

After checking the heart's condition, the Perfected Lord of Hundred Poisons was not too satisfied.

"That is your problem. Everything else is ours."

Lu Jiu wrapped the chain around Ye Wenzhong's Dharma treasure, the golden spear and put it away in his storage ring.

Ye Wenzhong was the head of the Ye Family, so the value of these things would not be low.

No matter how good-tempered Ye Wending was, he could not help but order, "All Ye Family cultivators, form a formation and kill these demons!"

"Yes!"

The Ye Family members, who were already filled with righteous indignation, moved. With the Bronze Chariot as the foundation, they formed a huge offensive formation.

"The few of you won't be able to stop us."

Lu Jiu took a calm look and dragged Song Shi's blood river, seizing the opportunity to retreat with the Heavenly Poison Sect that had more people.

The Ye Family members let out furious roars, but they were unable to stop the three Nascent Soul cultivators. They could only watch as their Patriarch's corpse was dragged away.

They were extremely dejected.

The Ye Family was like a local emperor in Jinzhou. They had been high and mighty for thousands of years and could be considered one of the top cultivation families in Great Qian. When had they ever suffered such a huge loss?

This defeat shattered the hearts of many people. For a moment, many people doubted their lives and doubted the strength of the Ye family.

Boom!

The ground shook.

Ye Wending was so angry that he shattered a small mountain with a slap. His body trembled as he stared fixedly at the cultivators of the demonic sect who were leaving, "These demonic cultivators are too arrogant. Even if my Ye Family has to use up the Qian Dragon Token, we will make you pay the price."

Everyone was shocked.

Qian Dragon Token!

The special token left behind by the founding emperor of Great Qian could only be obtained by a small portion of the founding heroes. Once it was used, it could mobilize the Qian Dragon Army of Great Qian to do things!

This was not a normal army, but an army of cultivators. Furthermore, they were top-notch and were one of the core forces of Great Qian. Even if the demonic sects were in an uproar right now due to the rebellion, they would not dare to go head-on against the Qian Dragon Army.

If he really mobilized them, he would definitely be able to vent his anger. He might even be able to eradicate one whole sect.

"Hey, I'm late."

With a sigh, another group of Ye Family cultivators rushed over. The leading cultivator's face was covered in age spots. One look and one could tell that he was someone with half a leg in the ground.

"Ancestor, the Demonic Sects are too unscrupulous now. Our patriarch has been captured and is doomed. We will definitely be mocked by all the major forces in the world."

Ye Wending turned around in grief and indignation.

"The plate is only so big. Everyone wants to control it and obtain more resources. The Demonic Cult's ambition is becoming more and more obvious."

Elder sighed. "If you want to, take the Qian Dragon Token and use it. Otherwise, you won't have a chance to use it when Great Qian falls in the future."

Ye Wending was shocked, "Elder, you don't have confidence in Great Qian?"

"Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who are wearing shoes[1]. The Demon Cult is such a group of people. Great Qian has been pampered for too long. If even the Ye Family is like this, how good can the royal family be?"

The old ancestor sighed.

"I understand!"

Ye Wending nodded. "In this chaotic world, if you want to survive, you have to suffer losses."

This incident made him realize that his family's current situation was no longer compatible with the times. If the Ye family did not change, such a tragedy would be very common in the future and there would even be the threat of extermination.

"You're more stable than Wen Zhong. We old fellows will discuss first but you should be the one that will lead the family next."

He did not pursue the demonic cultivators. Not only because he did not have much of his life span left, every time he attacked, his life would be shortened by a few days. Even the strength of a half-step Soul Transformation cultivator was not enough to kill the people of the Demonic Cults.

After saying that, the old man turned around and left.

Ye Wending sighed.

Their Ye Family's bloodline was powerful. The Ye family was able to thrive because of their bloodline, but it was also coveted dangerously because of their bloodline. Most of the ancestors in the family were about to die of old age, so it was very difficult for them to be useful at this time.

Hundreds of miles away.

Lu Jiu turned around to take a look.

"We alarmed the old fellow with one foot in the grave. But this fellow cherishes his life very much, so he shouldn't chase after us."

Ghost Butcher said sarcastically, "If not for their strong bloodline and vitality, they would have died of old age long ago."

"Ignore them. We have to think of a way to seal this guy first."

Lu Jiu looked at the blood river in the chains, "Hurry back to the Nether City and activate the Hundred Ghosts Lock Mountain Array to trap them."

He took out a flying ship and sent out a stream of Nomological power. The flying ship grew in the wind and brought everyone back quickly.

Song Shi was currently fighting Ye Wenzhong's soul.

With the energy provided by his Nascent Soul, Ye Wenzhong's continuous combat strength was much stronger than the Blood-Robed old ghost back then.

Song Shi attacked with all his might, but he was still split into pieces by the Golden Armor Heavenly God that Ye Wenzhong had transformed into.

"This guy has yet to cultivate his Essence Soul, but his soul power is still so strong. Looks like he must have encountered some fortuitous opportunity before."

Ye Wenzhong continuously shattered Song Shi's soul, but the latter was still unharmed. He stopped, "How do you keep doing it?"

"My swift restoration?"

Song Shi asked indifferently, "You think my recovery speed is too fast?"

Ye Wenzhong stared at Song Shi, "This doesn't seem like simple recovery. How did you do it?"

"Won't you know if you possess me?"

Song Shi smiled. "Come, let's fight a few more times."

Ye Wenzhong stopped moving.

The path of retreat outside was sealed. Regardless of whether he possessed this person or not, he would die.

"If you don't make a move, then I will!"

Song Shi's mental strength erupted, and the Lunar Star took the initiative to attack Ye Wenzhong.

The latter had no choice but to attack. At the same time, he said, "So what if you win? They won't believe you and you'll just die in the end."

He said bewitchingly, "You might as well work with me and think of a way to escape!"

He had already thought it through. Regardless of whether the possession was successful or not, he would have to face the suppression and sealing of the outside world. Only if this person cooperated with him would he have a chance to escape.

Unfortunately, Song Shi was not interested in this at all. No matter what happened outside, it would not affect him.

"He's really stubborn!"

Ye Wenzhong scolded, "I think you've been brainwashed by the Heavenly Ghost Sect. Do you know what will happen to you if you're brought back?"

"I don't know, but I know that you'll end up being swallowed by me."

[1] "Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who are wearing shoes" is a Chinese phrase that can be translated to: People who have nothing to lose are not afraid of people who are more powerful than them"

196 Can't Figure It Out (1)

"You forced me!"

Ye Wenzhong closed his eyes. When he opened them, they were cold. "I'll consider how to survive, when I kill you."

The next moment, he launched a fatal attack.

With the restoration speed provided by the Nascent Soul, Ye Wenzhong's continuous combat strength was much stronger than the Blood-Robed old ghost. He actually did not show any signs of weakening for a while.

On the other hand, when Ye Wenzhong realized that not only could Song Shi's soul not be destroyed, but it was also getting stronger, he decided not to attack and chose to defend instead.

Song Shi hence took the initiative to attack. He had to take action, or else this guy might just stay in his body forever.

Outside, Lu Jiu and the others came to a bitterly cold place. This was a huge cave, or more accurately, a sinkhole.

In the sinkhole, cold fog filled the air. There were many buildings and yin plants in the depths. From time to time, ghosts would float around and there were faint sounds of wild shrieks and howls.

This was where the sect of the Heavenly Ghost Sect was located. With a land of extreme Yin as the foundation, it could connect to the Nine Nether.

"The sect master and the others are back!"

Someone shouted. Then, shadows floated out of the buildings and respectfully welcomed the small boat that landed in the fog.

Lu Jiu stood at the bow of the ship. The chain in his hand pulled a tightly bound person. He was like a boatman ferrying his prey back from the netherworld.

"Open the Hundred Ghost Mountain Lock Array and suppress this person!"

Lu Jiu said coldly.

"Yes, Sect Master!"

Ten people flew out from the shadows and formed seals at the same time. Instantly, a strange green whirlwind appeared in the sinkhole. Then, the wild shrieks and howls became even more obvious.

With the sound of chains colliding, thick chains stretched out from the unfathomable darkness in the center of the pit.

Ads by Pubfuture

Roar! Roar!

At the top of these chains were evil spirits with blood-red eyes and two horns on their heads. They opened their bloody mouths and dragged the chains into the sky.

Lu Jiu swung the chain in his hand and Song Shi was thrown over. He was immediately swallowed by an evil spirit.

Then, the four ghost heads bit Song Shi's four limbs and froze him in midair before pulling him into the endless abyss.

Shi Tianya looked at Song Shi's storage ring and a pile of storage bags and said, "Since he's destined to be possessed, why don't we plunder him clean?"

"That makes sense. This guy has a piece of spiritual soil and the Wisdom Tea Tree in here. They're both good things."

The Ghost Butcher came back to his senses.

Lu Jiu nodded. "Then let's take it."

With a raise of his hand, they took away all his clothes, Dharma artifacts, storage bags and storage rings.

"Youyou, don't you want the tea tree? I'll give you the Spiritual Soil as well. When you go back, plant the tea tree on the Spiritual Soil. Coupled with the rich Spiritual Qi in the sect, its growth speed will probably increase by ten to a hundred times."

Lu Jiu took out the two most valuable items and handed them to his daughter.

"Thank you, Father."

Lu Youyou accepted it with mixed feelings. She looked at Song Shi's figure being swallowed by the darkness and sighed.

This annoying fellow was going to be completely gone.

At this moment, Song Shi's face twitched slightly. In the end, he could not move nor curse.

He could only curse in his heart, "Damn you, I'm not dead yet. What right do you have to plunder my assets!"

Song Shi felt extreme anger in his heart. He had originally used Lu Jiu and the others' methods to prevent Ye Wenzhong's Nascent Soul from escaping, but in the end, he had lost all his wealth.

He was on the brink of tears and could only vent his frustration on Ye Wenzhong.

Shi Tianya chuckled, "This old ghost risked his life, but in the end, we benefited."

Ads by Pubfuture

"I can only say that he was unlucky. Back then, he was surrounded and killed. Now, he's even more unlucky. He can't even protect his assets and his soul is about to be devoured."

Fang Gang revealed a look of pity.

Swoosh!

The Mountain Moving Daoist appeared out of thin air and looked at the suppressed Song Shi in surprise. "What's going on? Wasn't this guy the one who led the way to kill the Ye Family? Why did he go out standing but come back lying down?"

The others who did not know the situation revealed curious expressions and waited for the sect master to explain.

"He's been possessed by Old Dog Ye. He's basically hopeless. We'll suppress him first and think about how to deal with him later."

Lu Jiu explained the reason.

"Possession!"

Mountain Moving Daoist was stunned, "No wonder I felt that his aura was strange… Since he forced Old Dog Ye to possess his body, it seems like he won this time."

"We received a lot of benefits from this siege. However, Old Dog Ye called for reinforcements in advance. Even with the Heavenly Poison Sect, they were not completely wiped out. They were only severely injured and we roughly wiped out one Nascent Soul and three Golden Cores."

At this point, Lu Jiu glanced at the abyss. "It's all due to his contributions."

Many people gasped.

Was this guy who was suppressed by the Hundred Ghosts Locking Mountain Formation so fierce? He looked like he only had a Golden Core cultivation. How did he achieve such a battle record?

The Mountain Moving Daoist was also shocked. He shook his head and said, "What a pity. This old ghost's battle prowess is comparable to many geniuses. Now, he's crippled."

"This person's killing intent is too strong. It's good to cripple him. Otherwise, he will be a troublesome fellow."

Lu Jiu shook his head. "Let's not talk about him anymore. From now on, all the people who have been poisoned will stay in the ghost pit to cultivate for the time being. We will rotate a group of people to go out and run errands for now."

Everyone obeyed and dispersed.

Lu Jiu brought the higher-ups to a ghost palace in the sect and took out Ye Wenzhong's corpse. He formed a seal and pointed. A long black and white snake flew out from his head and was grabbed by him.

"This Life and Death Gu contains a portion of Ye Wenzhong's essence, energy, and spirit. I won't stand on ceremony and will refine it for myself. Refining this is equivalent to over a hundred years of cultivation that would have required a lot of effort."

197 Can't Figure It Out (2)

He absorbed the Life and Death Gu greedily and took down Ye Wenzhong's storage ring, "I will split the items inside later as a reward for this operation. As for the corpse…"

At this point, he took out a black token. After activating it, the Void twisted, and a grayish-black vortex appeared out of thin air.

"Lu Jiu, I smell blood."

A buzzing sound came out from it, making people feel fear.

"Hungry Ghost Emperor, this person burned his Nomological power and blood essence. However, he has a Nascent Soul body after all. He should still be useful to you."

Lu Jiu politely threw the head and headless corpse in.

"Eh, Golden Blood. Unfortunately, the Essence Blood is gone. This can only be considered as a small snack."

A black claw stretched out from the darkness. It was exceptionally huge, and its nails were sharp and blood-red.

Compared to it, Ye Wenzhong's corpse was like an ant. The latter grabbed it and threw it into the darkness.

"Many thanks to the Ghostly Emperor for the reward!"

A voice thanked him in unison. Then, Ye Wenzhong's corpse shattered into pieces and was disintegrated by an unknown thing.

"If there's nothing else, I'll close the passageway first."

Lu Jiu held the token and said.

"Wait, Sect Leader Lu!"

Another cold and deep voice sounded, "Miss You You, are you interested in coming over? I've prepared something fun."

"I have to cultivate. I don't have time to go to the spirit space."

Lu Youyou refused.

"Hehe, when did Miss You You change? This is the first time I've heard you say that you don't have time to play because you want to cultivate."

The cold voice chuckled.

"Don't you know people change?"

Lu Youyou pouted, "Play by yourself first. I want to form my Golden Core as soon as possible."

"Alright, I'll come and find you in a few days. I'll give you some treasures that can help you form your core."

Lu Jiu closed the passageway and took out a golden dragon spear, "This Dharma treasure has a masculine Yang nature. It's suitable for moving mountains. Do you want it?"

Moving Mountain Daoist shook his head. No matter which sect it was, one had to pay a certain price to obtain something. It was just that the price was more or less based on one's status.

This Golden Dragon Spear was a Numinous artifact that belonged to the Ye Family. They would not give it up so easily. He did not want to 'pay' too much for a troublesome Dharma treasure.

"Alright, I'll leave it here for now. Next time, I'll hold a Nascent Soul black market and see if I can get rid of it."

Lu Jiu waved his hand and the Golden Dragon Spear flew out and stabbed into a huge pillar beside him with a crack.

The latter let out a low cry, as if it was unwilling to give up. However, it was not a spiritual treasure with intelligence. Without its master, it could not do anything.

"Now, let's split the spoils of war in the storage ring."

He took out the last item and began to count it. Of course, this included Song Shi's.

Time passed.

Song Shi, who now had nothing to his name and Ye Wenzhong, who also now had nothing, continued to fight in their soul state.

Compared to the battle with the Blood-Robed old ghost that ended in just a few days, it took an entire month for Song Shi to exhaust Ye Wenzhong to death before devouring him.

It took another half a month to digest Ye Wenzhong's memories and residual power. Only then did Song Shi end the possession process and slowly open his eyes.

It was pitch-black outside, but Song Shi could still sense an ugly ghost head facing him. It seemed to be drooling.

"…"

Song Shi wanted to curse on the spot.

Not only did he not get any spoils of war this time, but he was also suppressed in this dark place.

At this moment, his Nomological power was sealed by the Array Formation Power, and his body was also suppressed. It was difficult for him to even move.

He felt as if a huge mountain was pressing down on him. Not to mention the Golden Core realm, even a Nascent Soul realm cultivator could not withstand it.

"This is great. I don't even have the strength to move. I can't even die."

Song Shi cursed in his heart for a while and looked around helplessly.

In this dark place, there were many evil spirits surrounding him. They were all drooling, clearly wanting to eat his flesh and drink his blood.

"Looks like I can only use the Ragnarok I drew last time. I didn't expect that my first time using it would not be on the old witch, but in this damn place."

Song Shi opened the system interface and checked Ragnarok's special Skill.

Ragnarok (Low-level): A special rule-type Skill. for being immune to control of those below the Nomological Realm. It can also burn one's essence, energy, and spirit. When used, combat strength will double. Its cool-down is 2 hours.

"Immune to Control. It shouldn't be a problem without specifying whether it's Array Formation Control or other forms of Control."

He tapped on this skill with his divine consciousness.

"Do you want to use this Skill?"

Of course, Song Shi chose yes.

In the next moment, his body, which had been sealed by the Array Formation, suddenly emitted a golden glow. A domineering power that could destroy and disregard everything suddenly erupted from within.

The sealed power in Song Shi's body instantly loosened and boiled. He became twice as powerful as normal and was comparable to an existence who had just entered the Nascent Soul realm.

The surrounding sealing power was illuminated by the golden light and melted on the spot, losing all effect.

Song Shi's eyes lit up as he regained his power. He stood up and slapped the drooling ghost head into pieces.

The surrounding ghost heads were a little dumbfounded. They had formed the array for so many years, but this was the first time they had encountered such a situation.

The guy was clearly suppressed, but now he was suddenly not suppressed anymore and even jumped up to blow up a ghost head.

"Damn it, don't you know that your mouth stinks? Why are you still so close to me!"

Song Shi did not leave immediately. Instead, he scolded the ghost head who was too close to him before taking a step forward.

BANG!

The powerful explosive force created a golden crater in the surrounding ghost fog. Then, he shot out like a cannonball.

Ads by Pubfuture

"ROAR!"

The surrounding ghosts came back to their senses and roared as they rushed over, wanting to keep Song Shi behind again.

The chains that filled the sky danced and fell from Song Shi's head. A strange scene appeared. When the chains landed on Song Shi's body, they were unable to trap or entangle him.

A strange and mysterious force prevented them from sealing Song Shi. It was truly a sight to behold.

"Dama's teeth!"

Song Shi imitated a game character and shouted happily.

The feeling of using his ultimate skill was too good. He felt like his entire body was on fire, and his body seemed to have become taller.

If he was given an axe, he probably could cut through everything!

The chains above his head could no longer stop him. A huge hole was created in the grayish-black fog. He was like an unstoppable meteor as he rushed out. Even sound could not catch up to him.

Song Shi even felt that he was about to break open space.

Of course, this was just an illusion. He was just much faster than before, exceeding the speed of sound.

In just a few seconds, he crossed thousands of feet in one breath and rushed out of the abyss, arriving in the valley.

As soon as he broke free from the Array Formation, the Ragnarok skill ended. Song Shi immediately felt half of his strength dissipate and he returned to his normal state.

Song Shi hovered in mid-air, still unsatisfied. He looked around.

At this moment, he was in an unfamiliar valley. No, it should be said that he was outside a huge sinkhole.

The buildings he saw were basically all in the valley. Many cultivators and ghosts were attracted by his movements and looked at him in surprise.

"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen a handsome man before?"

Song Shi was in a bad mood. At this moment, he had a stomach full of anger that he wanted to vent on the people of the Heavenly Ghost Sect.

"How… How did you get out of the ghost pit?"

"Wasn't he sealed by the array?"

"What the hell happened?"

The group of cultivators and ghosts panicked. They had never encountered such a situation before.

At the tallest part of the building, Lu Jiu had just absorbed Ye Wenzhong's life and death Gu and was consolidating his realm when the communication token suddenly jumped out.

"Sect Master, something bad has happened. The person in the Hundred Ghosts Locking Mountain Formation has escaped!"

A slightly flustered voice sounded.

"Blood-Robed old ghost? Impossible. How did he come out? Even if he's in the Soul Transformation realm, he won't escape easily."

Lu Jiu subconsciously did not believe it.

"Sect Master, I don't know what happened either."

The latter smiled bitterly, "I only saw him shoot out of the Nine Nether Ghost Pit with a swish. He's still laughing at us."

Lu Jiu immediately swept his thoughts and discovered Song Shi in the air. His expression immediately turned strange, "That shouldn't be the case. No matter who wins or loses, it's impossible for them to escape the array. What went wrong?"

Not only him, but the other higher-ups were also a little dumbfounded after receiving the news. No matter how hard they racked their brains, they could not understand how this person came out.

Could it be that the array was broken and this person took advantage of it?

198 It would be a waste not to take it (1)

Lu Jiu appeared outside as if he had teleported. He looked solemnly at Song Shi, who was cursing.

"Your Heavenly Ghost Sect is too inhumane. I've worked so hard to help you kill your enemies. It's fine if you didn't help me when I encountered trouble just now, but you actually suppressed me in a godforsaken place and even took my things!"

Song Shi questioned at the top of his voice, "Is there any justice in this world? Do you have any humanity?"

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Ghost Butcher, Moving Mountain Daoist, and many Golden Core cultivators flew over. Without exception, their expressions were all of shock.

"Who exactly is this guy?"

"He looks like the Blood-Robed old ghost. Ye Wenzhong wouldn't be cursing like this."

"Maybe Ye Wenzhong is deliberately putting on an act to survive."

"The question is why he didn't leave. He couldn't have stayed on purpose, could he?"

Those who knew the situation discussed softly. They could not determine Song Shi's situation with their naked eyes and first impression.

The few people who had taken Song Shi's things looked at each other and felt a little awkward.

If the other party was really the Blood-Robed old ghost, their previous actions were indeed a little overboard. After all, this guy was considered one of them.

Even in the Demonic Sect, bullying one's own people was not a glorious thing.

"Cough, are you Blood-Robed old ghost or Ye Wenzhong?"

Lu Jiu interrupted him and stared at Song Shi with bright eyes, trying to determine his situation.

"You've all suppressed me in that damned place. Is it important who I am? Return my things to me. I want to leave the Heavenly Ghost Sect. I'm not playing with you anymore!"

Song Shi was furious.

"Blood-robed Elder, your situation is special. It's better for you to stay for a while longer. Let's confirm your identity first."

Lu Jiu refused. "If you're really the Blood-Robed old ghost, we can apologize to you. If you're Ye Wenzhong, we naturally won't let you off."

"Then how do you want me to prove myself?" Song Shi asked. He did not know how to prove himself.

"Uh, it's indeed not easy to prove, but there are ways to check if you're the real person."

Lu Jiu pondered for a moment. "Everyone's soul might not necessarily be the same. Based on the match between the soul and the physical body, we can determine if you were possessed or not."

Shi Tianya spoke.

"Yes, this method will be affected by the last time he possessed someone else. There's no way to determine who he is."

Ghost Butcher nodded. The Blood-Robed old ghost's situation was special, so he really could not check like this.

Song Shi pursed his lips. If he really went to check, there would be no problem at all. There were no signs of him being possessed.

This kind of thing was his secret. He was not interested in talking about it, nor did he want to cooperate with a soul inspection.

In the words of his previous life, who would go to the hospital for a checkup when they were not sick?

"Don't talk to me about this. Give me back my things first!"

Song Shi was impatient. Other than a set of clothes and something that had yet to be taken out from the system, he had nothing else.

"I'm sorry, we can't be sure if you're the Blood-Robed old ghost. We can't give it to you."

Lu Jiu refused.

Not only did he refuse, but he also waved his hand to signal his disciples to surround Song Shi. Amidst the rumbling sounds, the Array Formation Power intensified, wanting to stop Song Shi from escaping.

Song Shi sighed, "We've done things together. Don't make me your enemy."

"You sure talk big. What can you do here?"

Shi Tianya sneered.

"Hehe, then why didn't your array formation lock me down?"

Song Shi said disdainfully, "If I want to leave, you can't stop me. However, you have to understand that once I leave, I'll make you spit out twice the things you took!"

All the cultivators of Heavenly Ghost Sect revealed furious expressions.

"You sure talk big!"

"Where did he get the confidence to be so arrogant in front of the entire Heavenly Ghost Sect?"

The group of disciples and elders were furious when they saw Song Shi. If not for the fact that the sect master had not spoken, they might have swarmed up and beaten Song Shi up.

Lu Jiu stared at Song Shi and looked into the abyss again.

As the sect master, he knew how powerful this array formation was. Until now, he had yet to discover how Song Shi had escaped the seal.

This person did not escape after escaping. Now, he was still inexplicably confident. Could it be that he could really leave under heavy siege?

Was he acting, or did he really have the ability to escape?

He thought for a moment and said, "Blood-Robed old ghost, let's make a bet. If you can leave under heavy encirclement, not only will my Heavenly Ghost Sect return the items to you, but we will also compensate you tenfold. How about that?"

"Oh, you want to find out more about me?"

Song Shi mocked, "But since you want to give me something for free, it would be a waste if I refuse."

Many people's expressions changed. Why was this fellow so confident? Could it be that he could really do it?

"Oh, so you're going to take a gamble?"

Lu Jiu was no longer sure. He was certain that Ye Wenzhong did not have this ability. Otherwise, he would not have been forced to possess the body and be brought back with the Blood-Robed old ghost to be sealed in the Array.

It couldn't be Ye Wenzhong's method, so there was only one possibility.

He was the Blood-Robed old ghost!

If the Blood-Robed old ghost could do these things, it would not be too surprising for him to win in the possession.

His expression changed. Should he gamble or not?

"Sect Master Lu, if you want to bet, remember to return the items to me. You still haven't rewarded me for the previous few operations. I don't want to work for nothing."

Song Shi smiled and said, "So what about it? Do you dare to gamble?"

Lu Jiu pondered for a moment and made a decision. He said affirmatively, "Let's bet. At most, we'll compensate you with a sum of resources. Our Heavenly Ghost Sect can still afford this."

199 It would be a waste not to take it (2)

"Then come. Let's see if you, thousands of cultivators and ghosts, can keep me here."

Song Shi laughed out loud. He originally did not want to fall out with the Heavenly Ghost Sect, but Lu Jiu had given him an interesting try, so he naturally had to acquiesce.

It would be a waste not to take ten times the compensation.

"Everyone, be gentle."

Lu Jiu waved his hand.

Although they said that, the cultivators and ghosts who had long disliked Song Shi did not hold back and unleashed their killer moves.

For a moment, the sky was filled with attacks. Song Shi was suppressed by the power of the array above his head, and ghost head chains wrapped around his feet.

"Everyone's so passionate."

Song Shi smiled awkwardly. Even Nascent Souls and Martial Emperors would be killed by such dense attacks.

It would be a miracle if he was not beaten to death.

Therefore, he died an immediate death.

A certain lucky person had snatched his head. But his cultivation level should not be high as the system reward was pitifully low.

Seeing Song Shi blasted into pieces, Shi Tianya was surprised. "That's it? There doesn't seem to be anything special."

Beside him, his master, Ghost Butcher, changed his expression, "No, his broken body has disappeared!"

Powerful Divine Consciousnesses swept over and carefully investigated the surroundings, but they didn't find any traces of him.

This person seemed to have suddenly disappeared and never existed.

"You didn't find anything?"

Lu Jiu asked.

"No, his aura disappeared along with his shattered body."

Ghost Butcher shook his head.

"Looks like he really won the bet."

Lu Jiu muttered, "Strange, his Dharma treasure, the Blood River, has been taken away. He doesn't have any Dharma treasures now. How did he escape?"

"I can't think of a way to do it. I might have to go back and check the books."

Outside the Heavenly Ghost Sect, Song Shi appeared out of thin air.

He heaved a sigh of relief. "Oh my god, this is the first time I've been ganged up on by so many people. I was completely stunned just now."

Song Shi felt fearful, "Fortunately, I can revive. Otherwise, who would be able to withstand it?"

He observed his surroundings. After confirming his location, he knew he had arrived outside.

After casting Ragnarok, he did not have enough time to escape from the Heavenly Ghost Sect.

However, he had already taken the opportunity to set up the resurrection point outside the sect.

Ads by Pubfuture

Now, the range of the resurrection point he could set was the range of his mental strength. Before the Heaven Ghost Sect Array Formation was completely sealed, he had modified it in time.

Otherwise, he would have to use the alternative resurrection point and return to his hometown in one go.

Having cultivated a Spiritual Technique, his current Spiritual strength was far stronger than those of the same level. It could already cover nearly a hundred miles.

Therefore, he was still quite far away from the Heavenly Ghost Sect's array formation. Of course, this sect's range was indeed relatively large, and he was only at the periphery.

"Time to go back to get ten times the compensation!"

Song Shi grinned, double checked the directions and flew out with a whoosh.

A huge sinkhole appeared in front of them. It was about a hundred miles in diameter and was emitting a cold aura.

"It's huge!"

Song Shi took a deep breath. He had seen tall mountains, but he had never seen such a huge pit. It looked like it had collapsed from the middle, as if the ground had collapsed.

"Is this the ghost pit of the Nether City? It indeed lives up to its reputation."

Song Shi praised. This special terrain was only heard of in the memories of the Blood-Robed old ghost. This was the first time he had seen it. It felt especially spectacular.

He continued to fly closer and realized that Lu Jiu and the others were still searching for him in the pit near the center. They did not expect him to have escaped.

"I don't believe he can escape!"

"He must have used some strange method to hide here so that we can't discover him!"

"Blood-Robed old ghost, come out!"

Many people shouted nearby, thinking that Song Shi was hiding.

"I'm not a child. Do you think I'll hide from you?"

Song Shi replied disdainfully.

Swish swish swish!

Gazes instantly gathered in the sky and landed on the figure floating outside the array. Then, their pupils involuntarily constricted and they revealed shocked expressions.

"Heavens, he's really not dead!"

"He even escaped. He managed to escape the sect's array formation."

"What kind of method did he use?"

The group was flabbergasted, and they were extremely interested in Song Shi's secret.

After all, this was the strongest life-saving method they had ever seen. It was also the most powerful escape method.

The sect's array formation couldn't seal him. With so many people surrounding and attacking him, he still couldn't be killed.

What other methods did this world have to destroy him? No matter how everyone thought about it, there wouldn't be many.

"Why are you all so enthusiastic? Why are you all looking at me?"

Song Shi crossed his arms and landed on the sect's array formation with a smile. He was not worried that someone would control the Array Formation to attack him.

Lu Youyou was startled by the commotion midway and happened to see the other party being surrounded. Now that she was standing here unscathed, she was a little stunned.

"He's actually so powerful. How am I going to defeat him and humiliate him?"

Ads by Pubfuture

She felt like she had suffered a blow. The confidence in her heart dissipated and she lost her fighting spirit.

Not to mention him, Shi Tianya and the other inner sect disciples could only open their mouths and admit defeat.

Not to mention how strong this person's direct combat strength was, even a Soul Transformation cultivator could not compare to this life-saving method.

The people who wanted to beat Song Shi up were all afraid. The discussions stopped, and the entire sect suddenly fell silent. It was a little strange.

"Haha, good move!"

Lu Jiu laughed loudly and flew up from the ground to meet Song Shi. "Blood-robed Elder, your escape technique is impressive. Even the Soul Transformation realm might not be comparable to your level right now."

After thinking about it, he could only deduce Song Shi's method to be a secretive escape technique or that he had possessed some powerful Dharma treasures which helped him escape.

No matter which one it was, it meant that the Blood-Robed old ghost was very threatening at this moment.

After all, it was very difficult to kill him as a target. If one rashly offended him, the revenge would be very terrifying because no one could kill him. Instead, they would be the ones constantly dying.

When the others heard Lu Jiu's deductions, they felt that they had found the reason and heaved a sigh of relief.

The unknown was terrifying. If they couldn't figure out this person's escape method, they would feel uneasy.

With an escape technique as an excuse, it was still within their understanding.

"Cut the crap. Return all my things to me. That will be my reward along with ten times the compensation!"

Song Shi said impatiently. It would be a waste not to take the benefits.

"No problem. Blood-robed Elder, follow me!"

Lu Jiu politely extended his hand to lead the way and personally brought Song Shi to a tall palace.

As soon as they entered, Lu Jiu took out a black token and handed it to Song Shi, "Blood-robed elder, from today onwards, you are the grand elder!"

"Oh, I'm just a Gold Core Realm cultivator. How am I qualified to be a Supreme Elder? It's better to compensate me with some practical benefits. I'm not interested in this kind of false reputation."

Song Shi waved his hand.

Lu Jiu laughed heartily, "Blood-robed Elder, you've misunderstood. This is the position you deserve. Our Heavenly Ghost Sect respects strength. Whoever has the ability can obtain status and resources. You escaped the seal of the array and still managed to escape with ease under the siege of everyone. Ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators don't even have such ability. If you don't have the qualifications, who does?"

He continued, "You don't have to worry about the reduction in compensation. You deserve it. This is not included in the compensation."

"That's better. Let's get straight to the point."

Lu Jiu stretched out his hand. "My storage ring and Dharma treasures."

"Cough, some expendable things are hard to get back. Let's compensate you with something more precious."

Lu Jiu suddenly raised his hand and grabbed it. A golden light flashed on the huge pillar in the distance, and a Spear flew over.

Lu Jiu checked the situation of the Spear and realized that there was no reaction from Song Shi.

He thought to himself, "Old Dog Ye really failed. Otherwise, his Dharma treasures would have reacted to him."

He was certain that the other party was the Blood-Robed old ghost. He handed the Spear over. "This low-grade spirit weapon is yours. Treat it as a portion of compensation. How about that?"

"That's more like it!"

Song Shi's eyes lit up. Back then, when he saw Ye Wenzhong use this Spear, he felt that it was very domineering and mighty.

He grabbed it and a heavy feeling surged over. He asked, "Is this a low-grade spiritual artifact?"

"A genuine low-grade spirit artifact is something that even ordinary Nascent Souls would find difficult to possess. Don't think that just because you encountered a few Numinous artifacts in the ruins of the Myriad Poison Mountain's Holy Gu Sect that this thing is common. In fact, it's still very rare, even I only have one too."

200 Spirit Land (1)

"I know."

Nomological power surged out of Song Shi's palm. The golden spear gave off a resistance, as if it was unwilling to be controlled by him.

"There's still some of Old Dog Ye's power left inside. It will instinctively stop you from controlling it. You'll need some time to refine it."

When Shi Tianya saw the reaction of the golden spear, he knew that this person could not be Ye Wenzhong. Otherwise, the spear would not be like this.

Song Shi stuck it at the side and said, "How much is this compensation?"

"The value of these Numinous artifacts is ten times that of top-notch Dharma treasures therefore I'll have to deduct your remuneration. How about eight times the compensation?"

Lu Jiu discussed.

"Be more sincere. I also have treasures that are comparable to Numinous artifacts. Even if that piece of spirit soil can't compare to this golden spear, it's completely worth twenty to thirty percent of it. This doesn't count as anything else."

Song Shi said coldly, "My Blood River Dharma treasures are already quasi-Numinous artifacts. The Wisdom Tea Tree is also very valuable. With the addition of spirit soil, it's not too much to exchange for half a golden spear, right?"

Ghost Butcher widened his eyes. "You're asking for an exorbitant price. Don't tell me we have to compensate you with five Numinous artifacts?"

"This doesn't count as other small things. No matter what, you have to compensate five and a half more."

Song Shi shrugged, "You guys were quite generous just now, but now you can't bear to part with it?"

Lu Jiu waved his hand, "You guys don't have to defend anymore. My Heavenly Ghost Sect admits defeat."

He did not deduct anything. Since this person was so powerful, if he could win him over, his future gains would definitely be more worth than this compensation.

"Sect Master Lu is so generous."

Song Shi realized that Lu Jiu was quite generous. He had the temperament of an ambitious and ruthless person.

With such a person as the sect master, the Heavenly Ghost Sect would definitely continue to grow stronger.

"We don't have any extra Numinous artifacts. We can only compensate you with other things. How about we give it to you in batches? As compensation for the delay, I'll give you contribution points worth six Numinous artifacts."

Lu Jiu did not lower the compensation. Instead, he added half a Numinous artifact. However, he had to delay the delivery.

"In Instalments?"

Song Shi frowned. He knew that asking for so many things at once would hurt even the Heavenly Ghost Sect, so he did not reject it directly.

"That's right. We'll give you contribution points. As for spirit stones, medicinal pills, talismans, cultivation techniques, divine arts, and other resources, you can use contribution points to exchange for them according to your needs. This will be beneficial to both of us."

"That works too."

Song Shi nodded and asked, "If you have contribution points, you can exchange for anything?"

"Right, but some things will be restricted, but not against you. It's to ensure a certain amount of inventory."

Lu Jiu explained patiently.

This made Song Shi feel very comfortable.

Lu Jiu had never lied to him before, so he really had no reason to find fault with him. He nodded. "Alright, let's leave it at that."

"I did some calculations. Based on the average value of a low-grade spirit weapon, the sect will give you 1.8 million contribution points. In our Heavenly Ghost Sect, one contribution point is roughly worth a low-grade spirit stone. It's enough for you to cultivate for a thousand years."

Lu Jiu smiled and said, "As for your items, I'll return them to you if they haven't been consumed. The items that have been used will be compensated equally. How about that?"

"You've arranged it so well. What else do I have to say?"

Song Shi pulled out the golden spear. "Where do I live?"

Lu Jiu said to Old Man Nightmare, "Uncle Nightmare, arrange a high-grade cave abode for him."

Song Shi came to a cave abode at the edge of the ghost pit. The pure and cold Spiritual Qi turned into a foggy state, forming a sharp contrast with the cold wind outside.

It was obvious that this was also a special blessed land. It was very suitable for Yin cultivators. It was also not bad for people like him who were overly Yang.

"The density of the Spiritual Qi is three times that of the outside world. Even if the cultivation speed here is not increased by several times, it will always be faster than outside."

Song Shi muttered in his heart.

This was the difference between having a faction and not having one. It was not easy for rogue cultivators to occupy such a place to cultivate.

"Elder Blood Robes, are you satisfied?"

Old Man Nightmare asked politely. In the past, the Blood-Robed old ghost and he were both inner sect elders and belonged to the same level.

Now that he had advanced to Grand Supreme, his Ability was powerful, so he naturally looked at him in a different light.

"That's right. This is the best cultivation place I've ever seen."

Song Shi readily voiced his thoughts and continued, "I just need someone to order around. Where's my maid, Xiao Qin?"

He had been served by others since he was young. Usually, he needed someone to take care of some miscellaneous matters when he cultivated, so he naturally had to get a maid to come over.

He just didn't know how Bai Xiaoqin was doing while he was sealed.

Without him as her support, Bai Xiaoqin might be in trouble.

"Your maid is quite talented. An elder took a fancy to her and took her in as a disciple. I'll help you contact her. You can talk about it yourself."

Old Man Nightmare smiled.

"Just take me there. I want to see her."

Song Shi was prepared to understand Bai Xiaoqin's thoughts. If she was unwilling to be his maid, he would not force her.

"This is the restriction token of the cave dwelling. It's equivalent to a key. You can use it by refining it with your Psyche Power. Please keep it well, Blood-robed Elder."

Old Man Nightmare took out a white jade token and handed it to Song Shi.

Song Shi gave it a try. After injecting his Spiritual strength, he immediately obtained information about this cave abode. It was a little like the control hub of the security system.

There was no problem with trying to control the Array Formation with it. Song Shi followed Old Man Nightmare to the cave abode area outside.

"This area is a medium-grade cave abode. The Spiritual Qi density is twice that of the outside world. The low-grade cave abode in the outer sect is only half of that."
