Chi Zhong's face was sickly pale. He glared at Qin Hao from afar with venom in his eyes, but the look vanished in an instant.
He was back to normal!
His gaze shifted from Qin Hao to the others in the distance.
On the surface, Chi Zhong looked no different from before.
His cultivation was still at the Half-Step Sovereign realm.
His aura was still strong.
Yet no one knew.
Someone else had already taken over his body!
The Celestial Pivot Daoist!
"This body isn't a perfect fit for my Spirit Body, but it will do."
"Chi Zhong" muttered to himself as he felt out his new body. "Human Race, Heavenly Dao Academy, Chi Zhong? Hmm? He's a disciple of the Dao Alliance too. Not bad."
"Damn it. If Qin Hao's Willpower hadn't gravely wounded me, why would it have been so difficult to seize Chi Zhong's body?"
The Celestial Pivot Daoist seethed with hatred.
Seizing Chi Zhong's body had not been easy.
Only after considerable effort had the Celestial Pivot Daoist succeeded.
If he had chosen Chi Zhong from the start, the seizure would have been effortless.
"My Spirit Body is damaged now. I'm afraid it won't recover anytime soon."
The Celestial Pivot Daoist exhaled softly, trying to behave as Chi Zhong would. "I must absorb Chi Zhong's memories as soon as possible. I also need to take the Primordial Feathered Wings. Seizing his body only gave me his Cultivation Realm."
"My ability to protect myself is weak. With the Primordial Feathered Wings, it would improve greatly. And whether it's the Heavenly Dao Academy or the Dao Alliance..."
"They would both value me more."
The Celestial Pivot Daoist sat cross-legged and began absorbing Chi Zhong's memories as quickly as he could.
Time passed little by little.
Elsewhere.
