However, Nameless One knew that if he let even a trace of his weakened soul show, the pack of wolves and tigers gathered outside the cave dwelling would join forces to hunt him down. At best, they would kill him; at worst, they would capture him and subject him to torture.
Thus, he carefully used a secret art to conceal his soul, which had withered to the extreme.
At the same time, he cautiously observed the situation.
With a single look, he picked Xu Yi out. The Essence, Qi, and Spirit that Xu Yi had developed through cultivating the Profound Thunder Body Tempering Art were simply too familiar to him.
At that moment, Nameless One had nearly shouted with excitement.
This body of jade-like skin and spiritual bones, forged beneath the onslaught of violent spiritual energy, possessed power almost equal to having all three Dragon Gates wide open.
But the violent spiritual energy had battered it for far too long, leaving soul and body mismatched, with not a trace of vitality.
He had no idea how much effort it would take to revive it completely.
In the short term, borrowing another body to shelter his soul was undoubtedly the best option.
And because Xu Yi had cultivated the Profound Thunder Body Tempering Art, his body naturally appealed to Nameless One.
Seizing the moment, Nameless One sent out a wisp of spiritual force and easily took control of Xu Yi.
At the same time, he concealed his weakened soul within that spiritual force and sent it into Xu Yi's body, where it hid so quietly that even Xu Yi failed to notice.
Nameless One intended to wait until the spiritual force had completely transformed Xu Yi's body before taking it over.
Who could have known that Wang Yao would appear out
