"Kui You, This Seat has said it: you cannot break through this seal."
"How about it? Agree to This Seat's conditions, and This Seat will release you at once!"
Gu Xingzhi spoke with an arrogant expression.
Kui You stopped roaring and returned to his normal size, his brows tightly furrowed as he stared fixedly at Gu Xingzhi.
Only after a long while did he speak.
"Just who are you?" Kui You looked up at Gu Xingzhi, remaining vigilant.
Only now did he truly take Gu Xingzhi seriously.
Since Gu Xingzhi could ignore the pressure of his aura, his cultivation had to surpass Kui You's.
His previous contempt vanished, and his manner became considerably more courteous.
"Can you really help me break this seal?"
Gu Xingzhi nodded with a smile.
"Then, what condition did you mention?"
"This Seat requires a thread of your Origin Essence."
Kui You trembled at those words. "What? You want my Origin Essence? This..."
If he lost his Origin Essence, his foundation would be damaged, his cultivation would plummet, and his path of cultivation would be cut off from then on.
After pondering for a moment, he looked at Gu Xingzhi again. "May I ask what you intend to do with my Origin Essence?"
Gu Xingzhi did not conceal anything and immediately told him his purpose.
He had previously learned from Yun Xuzi that this realm was covered by a special power, one even more Evil than the Forbidden.
Originally, this realm had offered countless paths of cultivation. Yet one day, the entire realm was invaded by a stream of Azure Qi and cut off from the outside world.
The Grand Power Realm cultivators within could not leave, while those who had departed could not return.
From then on, the Azure Qi eroded everything within the realm.
