The Hand Bone looked harmless, but the danger Li Chang'an sensed from it far surpassed that of Hua Xue and Mu Teng, two Spirit Transformation Heavenly Lords.
At least he could barely withstand those two for a short while.
Against the Hand Bone, he had no way to resist.
The moment it seized him, neither the Myriad Refinement Azure Origin Armor nor the Green Wood Sword reacted, as though neither had noticed a thing.
"Good thing Golden Light protected me."
Li Chang'an secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Without Golden Light's protection, he would certainly have fallen victim to Body Seizure today and become someone else.
That person's strength was immense. His cultivation experience, Cultivation Methods, and Spells all far surpassed Li Chang'an's.
If that person had succeeded, he might indeed have used this body to ascend to the Upper Realm, perhaps even achieve eternal life. But none of it would have had anything to do with Li Chang'an.
The path to immortality is mine to walk.
Li Chang'an steadied himself and swept his gaze over the others present.
His earlier guess had been right.
The Hand Bone had spread its fingers because it wanted to seize the person before it.
But none of them qualified. Even a gifted Prodigy with a Spirit Body like Li Xue'er could only make it open four fingers.
Li Chang'an alone had been chosen.
Why me? Could it really be my fortune?
Li Chang'an pondered.
In cultivation talent, he fell far short of Li Xue'er. After all, he had no Spirit Body.
His comprehension was not especially good either. Only through various fortunate encounters and treasures that enhanced comprehension had he acquired multiple Fourth Rank Skills.
Fortune alone was where he truly surpassed everyone present.
*No. Perhaps the Ancient Wood Origin played a part
