"F-Fellow Daoist Li..." Lin Xuanshu's voice trembled so badly that he could barely form a complete sentence. "Th-this is you?!"
Beside him, the Double-Pupiled One, Chu Tian, reacted even more violently than Lin Xuanshu.
Thud, thud, thud!
Chu Tian staggered three full steps backward, his heel catching on a jutting fragment of a gravestone, nearly sending him sprawling.
His double pupils, which could see through the falsehoods of the Yin-Yang Worlds, now churned with black and white energies that interwove and collided madly, spinning in his sockets like two black holes gone out of control.
"No... that's not right!!"
Chu Tian clamped both hands over his eyes. Crimson tears of blood spilled between his fingers again, but he endured the agony of his soul being torn apart, staring fixedly at the body before abruptly turning his gaze to Li Xiang.
"There's no illusion... no disguise... no alteration to the underlying bone structure!"
Chu Tian sounded as though he was desperately trying to deny something, his voice turning shrill and hoarse with overwhelming shock.
"In my double-pupil vision, the fundamental bone structures of these two bodies, the original pathways through which their blood and qi circulate... actually share exactly the same origin!"
Chu Tian lowered his bloodied hands and pointed at the coffin, then at Li Xiang, his eyes filled with a spine-chilling horror.
"This body... wasn't molded to look like you. On the level of laws, it is you!"
Dead silence.
At the center of the mass graveyard, this Eye of Ultimate Death where icy winds howled fell into a deathly silence after Chu Tian's declaration.
Everyone's gaze snapped onto Li Xiang, fastening upon him like heavy shackles.
The atmosphere grew uncanny beyond measure.
Li Xiang lay inside the coffin, and Li Xiang stood outside it.
The "Innately Immaculate Body"
