The Original Body Please Comfort Me Gently Within Five Minutes

A luminous jellyfish appears in Earth's atmosphere, traversing space.

She is Ninth-Grade Tribulation Immortal, possessing the power of space. In just a few breaths, she can traverse the entire Solar System and return to Earth from Solar System edge.

The Glowing Jellyfish carried the treasure chest containing the 'Darknight Time Ring of Spell Inheritance'. She planned to find a few like-minded fellow cultivators to study this 'Darknight Time Ring' together.

Not long ago, the 'resentment and murderous aura' emanating from the Darknight Time Ring even affected her mind, making her uneasy.

"Let's head towards the Eastern Sea first," the Glowing Jellyfish said softly. It remembered that a friend's cave was located in the Eastern Sea. It hoped that friend hadn't gone far away.

Just after the Glowing Jellyfish entered Earth's atmosphere, the treasure chest she held, sealed layer upon layer, began to vibrate.

Immediately afterwards, a Space Gate appeared next to the treasure chest, and something was about to break free from the chest!

The Glowing Jellyfish frowned. The thing inside the 'Darknight Time Ring' was filled with resentment and murderous intent. She didn't want to let this dangerous thing escape before she figured out what was inside.

"Drink!" she whistled, and her tentacles shot out like needles and thread, sewing the Space Gate shut.

However, behind the Space Gate she had stitched together, another Spatial Passage appeared.

A figure instantly stepped out of the Spatial Passage. It was a man dressed as a scholar, his entire body as clear as glass, transparent inside and out. However, the scholar's eyes were bloodshot, filled with a blood-red madness.

This Space Gate has two entrances. Behind the front entrance, there is a hidden door that is not easily noticed.

The scholar floated silently in the void.

When the Glowing Jellyfish saw the scholar, its eyes widened immediately. "Song Blockhead!"

The scholar before her, in a state of madness, his body as smooth as glass, was none other than Song Blockhead, who had left behind the 'Darknight Time Ring of Spell Inheritance,' and was a close friend of both her and Pavilion Master Chu.

But why is Song Blockhead inside the 'Darknight Time Ring of Spell Inheritance'?

Back then, Song Blockhead personally left the 'Darknight Time Ring of Spell Inheritance' and a treasure containing the 'Time Law' to Pavilion Master Chu.

Now, why is he emerging from this Darknight Time Ring again?

Could it be that he sealed himself within it back then, leaving the 'Darknight Time Ring' to Pavilion Master Chu through some method, such as creating a clone?

At this moment, the scholar, whose body was as clear as glass, heard the voice of the Glowing Jellyfish and turned around. His bloodshot eyes were still filled with madness and killing intent. However, the scholar's face was calm. He suppressed that madness and killing intent.

"Fellow Daoist, hello... I'm very sorry, I am not Song Blockhead." The scholar with the appearance of glass smiled slightly and apologized, "Many years ago, I asked him to do me a favor and seal me in the 'Darknight Time Ring'. When the agreed time came, he would release me from the seal."

The scholar, whose body was entirely made of crystal, continued to explain, "As for my current appearance, it's probably due to Song Blockhead's twisted sense of humor. If you know Song Blockhead, you should understand his eccentric personality."

The Glowing Jellyfish nodded slightly; this was indeed Song Blockhead's style.

"Fellow Daoist, I don't have much time. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now. My current state is consuming a lot of 'time.' Every second is precious." The scholar smiled and bowed. "I still need to see someone before my 'time' runs out."

After taking his leave, before the Glowing Jellyfish could reply, the scholar's body had already merged into the space and disappeared.

The Glowing Jellyfish opened its treasure box, inside which the 'Dark Night Legacy Ring' remained intact.

Did this scholar, whose entire body is made of crystal, really ask Song Blockhead to seal him away willingly? Otherwise, if he were to break free, the Darknight Time Ring should have shattered.

After a moment's thought, the Glowing Jellyfish gritted its teeth and followed the coordinates of the scholar from before.

She wanted to see what that scholar was up to!

That scholar, with his crystal-like appearance, was also Ninth-Grade Tribulation Immortal-level. He traversed space... and finally appeared directly beside Song Shuhang's Spirit Ghost.

"Found it." The Glazed Scholar smiled slightly at the Spirit Ghost on the ground.

The Spirit Ghost was in excruciating pain. After sending a notification to its original body, it lay motionless on the roof of a building.

Because of the excruciating pain, Spirit Ghost thought for a moment and then sent Shuhang another message.

"Please, my true self, gently comfort my soul within five minutes, or I'll just activate sensory sharing. Sharing pain is worse than suffering alone; everyone's pain is true pain!"

Just as the Spirit Ghost sent the message, a scholar with a body made of crystal suddenly appeared beside him.

The scholar's eyes were filled with madness and murderous intent, yet his face wore a gentle smile.

Who is this guy? The Spirit Ghost doesn't recognize him in its memories.

"Time is of the essence, and I don't have time to explain to you," the glass-like scholar said softly. "I need to borrow your Spirit Ghost body to meet someone. Afterwards, I will return your Spirit Ghost safely, along with a reward that will satisfy you!"

The Spirit Ghost was taken aback. Borrow a body?

Possessed by a ghost? But it's just Spirit Ghost, it can't be possessed.

"Don't resist, just let me into your body," the scholar said softly, yet his voice carried an undeniable authority.

[I refuse! I don't want a man inside my body!] Song Shuhang's Spirit Ghost opened its mouth, but unfortunately, it couldn't make a sound.

Then, the scholar, whose body was entirely made of crystal, entered the body of the Shuhang Spirit Ghost!

The Spirit Ghost suddenly felt its consciousness sink, losing all sensation—but after losing sensation, it could no longer feel the excruciating pain in its back, which was perhaps a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.

Two breaths later, the Spirit Ghost rose from the ground again.

Its eyes turned bloodshot, filled with madness and murderous intent, but its face remained calm. At the same time, a scholar's robe materialized on its body.

The Spirit Ghost stood motionless, yet it exuded an air of mastery and majesty.

But a moment later, the Spirit Ghost's calm face twisted in pain.

"It hurts, it hurts so much! I'm going to die, I'm going to die..."

***************************

On the other side, after Song Shuhang performed the ritual to deliver all the souls of the Fifth-Grade Spirit Emperor, his Merit points reached 17,000.

Nearly one-fifth of the 100,000 Merit were completed in a single day.

At this moment, Song Shuhang paused slightly.

Because a message came from the Spirit Ghost.

[I'm going to die, I'm going to die.]

What happened to the Spirit Ghost? Has it encountered some kind of crisis?

Song Shuhang immediately prepared to contact the Spirit Ghost to inquire about the details.

At this moment, the Spirit Ghost sent another message: [Please gently comfort my soul within five minutes, otherwise I will directly activate sensory sharing. Sharing pain is better than suffering alone; everyone's pain is true pain.]

Song Shuhang: "..."

He roughly understood what had happened—no wonder he hadn't felt any pain after the Appraisal Secret Method was performed; it turned out the Spirit Ghost had taken the pain.

This 'Appraisal Secret Method' is particularly bizarre. Sometimes, the Spirit Ghost has to bear the injury for the things it identifies, and sometimes the Spirit Ghost has to take the blame for the things it identifies.

Thinking of this, Song Shuhang contacted the Spirit Ghost, intending to comfort its wounded heart.

But at that moment... suddenly, the connection between Song Shuhang and the Spirit Ghost disappeared.

It wasn't cut off, but rather forcibly blocked by a powerful force.

Once the cultivator and the Spirit Ghost sign a contract and complete 'synchronization,' the connection between them cannot be severed.

However, powerful forces can temporarily sever the connection between the Spirit Ghost and the original body.

Before the connection with the Spirit Ghost was severed, the Spirit Ghost shared the last scene it saw with Song Shuhang.

A scholar, his body made entirely of glass, borrowed the body of Spirit Ghost.

Song Shuhang: 0_0!

Borrowing Spirit Ghost's body—is that even possible?

Seeing that Shuhang was lost in thought again, Senior Sister Ye asked, "Shuhang, what happened?"

"My Spirit Ghost has been forcibly borrowed," Song Shuhang replied.

"The Spirit Ghost was borrowed?" Senior Sister Ye was stunned. Spirit Ghost could be borrowed?

"Ye Si, I need to go back to Earth," Song Shuhang said after thinking for a moment.

The Spirit Ghost was extremely important to him; without Spirit Ghost, his cultivation speed would be significantly slower.

Moreover, the Spirit Ghost was half of him. Although the other party had promised to return it and pay a reward, Song Shuhang couldn't feel at ease. How could he not be anxious when half of himself had been forcibly borrowed?

"Alright, let's go back to the Jadewater Pavilion first. I'll report to Master or the Pavilion Master. Then, I'll go back to Earth with you." Senior Sister Ye gently comforted Song Shuhang, "Don't worry, the connection between the Spirit Ghost and its original body cannot be severed. Even if the other party forcibly took the Spirit Ghost away, we can still find it."

"Thank you, Ye Si," Song Shuhang nodded gently.

"Sit still, let's go back to the Jadewater Pavilion first," Senior Sister Ye said.

The borrowed Spirit Ghost... Suddenly, some memories surfaced in Senior Sister Ye's mind. She had a feeling that she had also experienced something similar? However, the memory was very vague.

Senior Sister Ye piloted the flying magical artifact, preparing to return to the Jadewater Pavilion.

At that moment, a flying boat rapidly approached Shuhang and his companion.

From the flying boat, a White Jade Lion flew out—it seemed to have been kicked out by someone.

"Six Cultivations, you idiot, can't you be a little gentler?" the White Jade Lion Four Cultivations said angrily as he flew.

"A mere creature with four such short legs, yet it dares to expect my tenderness?" Six Cultivations's voice came from the flying boat.

Four Cultivations: "..."

It's White Jade Lion! Do you want a lion to grow legs as long as a giraffe's?

Four Cultivations rolled and landed in front of Song Shuhang, shook himself off, and calmly said, "We meet again, young friend Shuhang."

"We meet again, Senior Four Cultivations." Song Shuhang. The people of the Limitless Demon Sect were killed by the Nine-Rebirth Phoenix Saber, so it was not surprising that Four Cultivations and Six Cultivations were nearby.

"Six Cultivations sensed that the 'Phoenix Flame' had been absorbed by someone, so he came to check. It turns out to be young friend Shuhang." Four Cultivations chuckled, then handed a talisman to Song Shuhang: "This is the 'Sun-Chasing Escape Talisman' that Seven Cultivations prepared for you. Keep it safe."
