Agreement, Feathered Immortal Lord
The phantom stared intently at Li Yunjing, clearly unwilling to comply with Li Yunjing request.
But the current reality is not a matter of whether it wants to or not.
Since falling to the mortal realm and losing the nourishment of celestial energy, it is on the verge of collapse.
It is not that he cannot accept death.
But before it died, it still had one thing to accomplish.
It wants to return to the Immortal Realm and utterly destroy the one who caused it to fall to the mortal world.
It would gladly accept dying on the spot if it were to accomplish this task.
Now, let alone fighting our way back to the Immortal Realm, we can't even manage to hold on any longer.
If it weren't for this, it wouldn't have gone mad the moment it saw Li Yunjing.
The Immortal Bone within Li Yunjing's body contains immense Immortal Spirit Qi, which can help it nourish itself and thus continue to live.
They even found an opportunity to fight their way back to the Immortal Realm.
"Mortal, how about we make a deal?"
The illusory figure then settled for second best.
Li Yunjing shook his head. "There's no room for discussion. I won't give you to anyone else."
The phantom began to flicker again, looking quite angry.
"Not even a shred of room for negotiation?" the phantom figure persisted.
Li Yunjing nodded. "That's right, there's absolutely no room for negotiation!"
"Oh, and by the way, I just wanted to let you in. We only have one breath left. If you don't answer now, even if you decide to agree later, I won't accept it."
Li Yunjing looked at the illusory figure with disdain. It felt really good to have confidence, and he even had a Immortal Artifact spirit under his control.
The phantom's eyes widened, and though it was only a moment, it felt like tens of thousands of years had passed.
"I... agree." The illusory figure finally spoke, agreeing to Li Yunjing's request.
Upon hearing this, Li Yunjing immediately smiled.
"Since you agree to submit, then hand over your true spirit."
The phantom was taken aback, but still reluctantly handed over its true spirit.
For these artifact spirits, the true spirit is equivalent to the soul of a cultivator.
When their true spirits shatter, they too will die.
Surrendering one's true spirit means surrendering one's life to someone else.
Li Yunjing took the true spirit from the phantom's hand.
His true spirit is a ball of light, without any impurities, and weightless.
The original plan was to directly imprint one's own mark into the true spirit in order to control the illusory image.
However, the Immortal Bone within Li Yunjing's body suddenly exerted its power, and the true spirit of the illusory Immortal Bone was absorbed into Li Yunjing's body and refined by the Immortal Bone.
When the true spirit of the phantom reappeared, it appeared to be the same as before, but its core had actually changed.
At this moment, Li Yunjing also learned more about the illusory figure.
The phantom is the spirit of the Five Aggregates Cauldron, named Five Spirits Lord.
In the Immortal Realm, the name of the Five Spirits Lord is extremely famous.
Having roamed the immortal Immortal Realm for a long time, he was tricked by a villain, which forced the Five Aggregates Cauldron to fall into the mortal world.
At first, Five Spirits Lord was able to maintain his position by relying on his own resources, and even created this space to hide himself.
The problem is that as time goes by, the Spiritual Qi of the mortal world is no longer sufficient to satisfy the Five Aggregates Cauldron.
And so he ended up in his current situation.
"So, you're saying that Purple Forest Mountain, once a blessed land, became desolate and spiritless because of you?"
Li Yunjing looked at Five Spirits Lord with a curious expression.
Five Spirits Lord nodded in agreement with a calm expression:
"Indeed, I was able to create this space precisely by borrowing the power of this mountain."
Li Yunjing felt a little regretful, as Purple Forest Mountain was originally a wonderful place.
"Take this genuine medicine back with you."
Li Yunjing returned the true spirit of the Five Spirits Lord.
The Five Spirits Lord retrieved his true spirit and gazed at it in a daze for a long time.
"How did you come to know the Feathered Immortal Lord? Could you be Feathered Immortal Lord descendant in the mortal realm?"
Coming to his senses, Five Spirits Lord withdrew his true spirit and looked at Li Yunjing with curiosity, asking a question.
"The Feathered Immortal Lord? Which immortal is this?" Li Yunjing asked, puzzled.
"You don't recognize it? Then how did you acquire the Feathered Immortal Bone?"
Seeing Li Yunjing's confusion, Five Spirits Lord was also puzzled.
"Feathered Immortal Bone? You mean the Immortal Bone inside me? It's all thanks to fortuitous opportunity..." Li Yunjing recounted his experience.
Upon learning how Li Yunjing obtained the Feathered Immortal Bone, Five Spirits Lord could only smile helplessly.
"So that's how it is. Your Feathered Immortal Bone fell to the mortal realm even before I did," said the Five Spirits Lord.
"It's a pity that even one of the great immortals of the Immortal Realm, the Feathered Immortal Lord, has fallen to this state, sharing the same fate as me."
Li Yunjing was very curious. "What is the relationship between the Feathered Immortal Bone and the Feathered Immortal Lord?"
Five Spirits Lord explained, "Feathered Immortal Lord one of the most powerful beings in the Immortal Realm. He is very strong, much stronger than me."
The reason why the Feathered Immortal Lord is so strong is because he was favored by heaven and earth at birth, and a piece of Immortal Bone was nurtured in his body, which is the Feathered Immortal Bone.
The Feathered Immortal Lord Transformation used the Feathered Immortal Bone to its fullest potential. Even if his physical body was destroyed, as long as the Feathered Immortal Bone remained, he could be resurrected.
Unfortunately, the Feathered Immortal Lord suddenly disappeared, shocking the entire Immortal Realm. No one expected that the Feathered Immortal Lord would descend to the mortal world.
After hearing this, Li Yunjing's breathing became rapid.
If the Feathered Immortal Bone could actually revive Feathered Immortal Lord, then wouldn't the Immortal Bone within my own body...?
Just as the thought crossed his mind, suddenly, a beam of light shot out from Li Yunjing's chest.
Still in the void, the ball of light gradually formed a person.
The person wore a flowing, moon-white robe with wide sleeves like clouds. His black hair was tied up with a jade hairpin, his face was as smooth as jade, his eyes were like golden glass, his eyebrows were like distant peaks, and his lips held a faint smile.
His body was surrounded by white feather phantoms intertwined with clouds, covered in a clear radiance. His bones were pure and exquisite, and he exuded an aura of immortality. With just one glance, it was as if True Immortal who had ascended to heaven from the highest heavens had descended to earth.
"I never thought I'd fall for you after hiding for so long!"
As soon as this person appeared, he looked at Five Spirits Lord with a faint smile on his face.
Five Spirits Lord, however, remained solemn and bowed respectfully to the man.
"This humble immortal Five Spirits Lord, pays respects to the Feathered Immortal Lord!"
Beside him, Li Yunjing stared in shock at the Feathered Immortal Lord. He never expected that the Feathered Immortal Lord was actually still alive.
The Feathered Immortal Lord nodded to the Five Spirits Lord, then looked at Li Yunjing.
Don't be surprised, I mean you no harm.
Li Yunjing remained silent. What could malice do? Could Li Yunjing possibly resist?
The Feathered Immortal Lord continued, "This matter is complicated, and I won't be able to come out for long, so I'll keep it brief."
This guy is pretty good; he can be your helper. With his assistance, you'll probably be able to reach the realm of immortals very quickly.
As for why I approached you, it's simply because I see you possess great fortune and have the potential to become my destined partner.
After you ascend to immortality, there will be many things waiting for you to do.
There's no point in telling you these things now; you'll understand in time.
Until then, my Feathered Immortal Bone will remain inside you.
Don't worry, this won't harm you in any way. On the contrary, it's fortuitous opportunity for you, just like the Transcendence and Ascension to Immortality Instruction you obtained.
There are still many mysteries about the Immortal Bone waiting for you to discover. Explore them carefully, and you will know how great these mysteries are after you become an immortal.
