now.
Within Purgatory City.
The four people from the Blue Heaven and Yellow Springs Hall arrived before the Purgatory Ancestor.
The old patriarch said with a grim expression, "I already know."
The Secret Method used by Pan Xie and his companions was released by the soul power of the Purgatory Ancestor.
Therefore, the Purgatory Ancestor would naturally be able to learn of the deaths of the four of them immediately.
Upon hearing this, Qiu Genyin smiled faintly, "There's no need for the Ancestor to be angry about the deaths of four good-for-nothings, is there?"
As soon as these words were spoken...
The soul of the Purgatory Ancestor has erupted in chaos!
He roared, his face contorted with rage, "You think I'd be angry over such trash? Even if they survived, if they return defeated, I'll kill them with a single blow!"
"What angers me is that we didn't retrieve that body cultivator's corpse!"
If there is no physical body, or even a high-quality physical body.
For the Purgatory Ancestor, not only is the upper limit of his strength after rebirth limited, but even whether he can get out of this hellish place is a problem!
After all, the suppressive power of the Severed Soul City only targets the soul.
As long as the Purgatory Ancestor is still a soul, and his soul strength has not completely surpassed the suppressive power of the Severed Soul City, then he will absolutely not be able to get out of these three stone pillars!
Qiu Genyin smiled and said, "I do have a physical body."
"Oh?" The Purgatory Ancestor looked at Qiu Genyin.
Qiu Genyin waved his hand, and the corpses of Gu Xi and Chi Bing appeared before him.
Qiu Genyin pointed at the two corpses and said with a faint smile, "However, the strength of these two bodies is not as good as Xiao Hei's... that is, the body of that body cultivator."
"But under the current circumstances, there's probably no time to consider such things, right?"
Upon hearing this...
The Purgatory Ancestor slowly suppressed his anger.
His expression remained somber, with a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
Seeing this, Qiu Genyin continued speaking.
"Besides, you can just change your physical body after you get out. That shouldn't be a difficult thing for you, Purgatory Ancestor."
Upon hearing this, the hesitation in the eyes of the Purgatory Ancestor vanished.
really.
It's just a matter of changing bodies; as far as he's concerned, he can do that once he gets his hands on some special items.
The priority now is getting people out of trouble.
Besides, after he escapes, he can personally kill that body cultivator and take his physical body with him, right?
That's what I've been thinking about.
The Purgatory Ancestor looked at Qiu Genyin and nodded slightly, saying, "I will remember the kindness shown to you by the Blue Heaven and Yellow Springs Hall."
Qiu Genyin replied nonchalantly, "It's not a matter of gratitude; we're just business partners. Just remember your promise and lead us to the High-Latitude Realm."
Seeing Qiu Genyin's attitude towards him, the Purgatory Ancestor frowned slightly.
He wouldn't allow a junior to be so presumptuous and disrespectful in front of him just because of a small favor.
In the past, the Purgatory Ancestor would have undoubtedly tortured and killed him cruelly.
But.
Now he needs the help of the Blue Heaven and Yellow Springs Hall behind Qiu Genyin.
He had no choice but to hold back for the time being, and coldly snorted, "Of course I won't forget, and you shouldn't forget the terms of our cooperation either."
Qiu Genyin shrugged and said, "My Blue Heaven and Yellow Springs Hall either won't agree, or if I agree, I will do it."
"We do have that much credibility, Ancestor, there's no need to worry."
"That would be best."
That's all.
The Purgatory Ancestor looked at the two corpses. He wanted to choose the one most suitable for him to fuse with, so that he could be completely reborn.
At first glance, the Purgatory Ancestor looked at Gu Xi.
Gu Xi died.
However, for an old monster of the Purgatory Ancestor's strength and experience...
It was still easy to identify that Gu Xi was a sword cultivator in his previous life.
His physical strength is decent, above the level of others in the same realm.
However, in the eyes of the Purgatory Ancestor, it was still somewhat weak.
If I were a sword cultivator, I might still choose this body.
He then shifted his gaze to Chi Bing's corpse.
Chi Bing was also a sword cultivator.
However, the Purgatory Ancestor quickly made a decision: to fuse with Chi Bing's corpse!
Although Chi Bing's soul has now been extracted.
However, within that desolate sea of consciousness, traces of the soul could be discerned.
Chi Bing's sea of consciousness is much stronger and more unique than Gu Xi's.
It's obvious.
This person had some extraordinary experiences related to the soul during his lifetime.
However, his physical body is slightly inferior to Gu Xi's.
However, merging with Chi Bing's physical body would help restore the soul power of the Purgatory Ancestor.
This was a significant blow to the Purgatory Ancestor.
It's more practical to use.
Then, the Purgatory Ancestor waved his hand and destroyed Gu Xi's corpse.
Seeing this, Qiu Genyin simply smiled faintly and said nothing.
Then, the Purgatory Ancestor dragged Chi Bing's corpse into the stone pillar and began the fusion process...
On the other side.
As soon as Xiao Hei came out, he heard Ye Qiubai and the others discussing something.
"What use are their physical bodies?" Lin Zhinan frowned slightly and said, "What's the point of a corpse without a soul?"
Ye Qiubai was also a little confused and asked doubtfully, "Moreover, Gu Xi and Chi Bing's physical bodies aren't particularly strong, and their bloodlines aren't top-tier either..."
If it were Xiao Hei's physical body, it would probably still have some use.
After hearing the gist of the story, Xiao Hei understood and walked over, saying, "There's a possibility that a soul wants to be reborn in a physical body."
Upon hearing these words, everyone turned to look at Xiao Hei, who was walking slowly towards them.
From the moment they saw Xiao Hei.
They were all slightly taken aback.
Xiao Hei has changed quite a bit these days.
His eyes no longer looked as dull as before.
It conveys a sense of looking down on the world and being unusually indifferent.
At the same time, his entire demeanor underwent a dramatic change.
Ye Qiubai and Mu Fusheng were not surprised.
This is the result of absorbing soul fragments.
This situation has occurred before, but this time the change is more thorough.
Xiao Hei walked to Ye Qiubai Mu Fusheng's side and said, "There should also be a soul entity in Purgatory City, which is why it needs a physical body to be reborn."
"Of course, this is just one possibility, but it's the more likely one."
Ye Qiubai and the others pondered for a moment.
Xiao Hei is absolutely right.
For example, a remnant soul is suppressed in the Demon King City.
The outer cities, or even the places of inheritance, also suppress remnant souls.
Perhaps the top floor of the Cultivation Tower in Nebula City is the same.
Everything suppressed in the Severed Soul City seemed to be related to the soul.
After thinking about this...
Lin Zhinan said with a grim expression, "Then it's almost certain. We have to get there quickly, or their plan will succeed!"
Ye Qiubai continued, "Moreover, after success, the suppressed souls will be able to escape from the suppression..."
Ye Qiubai already knew this while in the outer city.
