The Great Wind Rises, and the Clouds Take Flight!
Thinking of this--
Whether it was Jing Ke or Qin Mingwan, they laughed disdainfully, then found a secluded spot, not too far from Muxuan Mountain, but not too close either...
This distance is extremely ambiguous; for a Qi Condensation cultivator, it is only a fleeting moment, practically within arm's reach!
However, for Warrior, there is still a long way to go, especially considering that Qin Mingwan only has the cultivation level of the fourth stage of True Martial Four Realms.
Extremely deceptive...
At first glance, it doesn't look like it could pose a threat at all...
Qin Zhuang, who had been observing silently, frowned deeply and could only stare intently at Qin Mingwan, in case anything changed at any moment.
Qin Mingwan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of inexplicable smugness...
In an unnamed village in Cloud Dream County.
A young man suddenly sat up from the bed, his eyes turning pure black in an instant, and a black soul shadow slowly separated from him!
It was a Qi Condensation level split soul!
"The Qin Clan..."
"His physical body was taken away by Gai Nie, and his three divided souls—the vengeful spirits—have already brought the main soul into the Qin Clan. Everything is ready..."
"Ghost Elder, if you're willing to help me, then my body is yours!"
"Mere flesh and blood, as long as the Ghost Elder allows me to avenge this grudge, it's all worth it. At worst, I'll just possess another body..."
After saying that--
The soul shadow split into half a remnant soul again. The remnant soul's face was indistinct, and its voice was extremely old, yet it carried a trace of supreme divine power...
"Young Master Jing, why should I help you?"
"Once your main soul perishes, I'll be the first to devour your Three Ingenuities Soul, then I'll seek out your physical body and seize your foundation..."
"Born with a spiritual body, Returning Soul Spirit Physique!"
"I'd love for you to die sooner, so why would I help you? And what right do I have to help you?!"
The shadowy figure laughed wildly, even with a hint of schadenfreude...
Looking back, if it weren't for that brat Jing digging up his grave, damn it, he would have already gathered his Soul Dao energy and returned to the Dao Foundation!
What I lose is my fate, what I gain is my fortune.
Although the chance to return to the Dao Foundation has been lost, it seems Heaven has finally opened its eyes...
I gave him a Soul Dao Spirit Body!
Let Dao Foundation Realm, even breaking through to the Golden Core Realm or the Nascent Soul Realm is not impossible, and one might even glimpse beyond the Nascent Soul...
This is the Innate Spirit Physique!
The so-called "innate" refers to perfect talent, equivalent to having ten inches of spiritual light, only then can one possess a spiritual body. This level of genius...
The entire Northern Nether Domain is comprised of only a handful of such individuals!
Who would have thought that such a prodigy would be born in a small village...
Coincidentally, this village was also wiped out by a poisonous cloud during the battle to suppress the Qin Lu Azure Cloud Sect years ago, with the entire village dying from the poison...
And coincidentally, Jing Ke wasn't in the village. When he returned the next day to look for his relatives, he accidentally unearthed the Ghost Elder's grave, ruining the Ghost Elder's resurrection plan...
sometimes--
The Ghost Elder all thought it was an extremely coincidental event, almost like Heavenly Fate...
Although this world does not believe in the Heavenly Dao or Heavenly Fate, the Way truly exists, and its end and realm are unknown...
And now--
Driven by cause and effect, Jing Ke, driven by revenge, had no more scruples...
Seeing the Ghost Elder's refusal, Hunying sighed softly, as if she had let go of everything. Then, the Three Ingenuities Soul began to disintegrate, actually disintegrating on their own!
At that moment, the Ghost Elder's heart tightened, and he immediately began to curse:
"I'll curse your ancestors! Stop!"
"Did you hear me! I told you to stop! If the Three Ingenuities Soul dissipate, you will also suffer severe damage, losing your three souls: the Heavenly Soul, the Earthly Soul, and the Human Soul..."
You won't survive either!
"Why bother? We can talk things over, Jing boy! We can talk things over!"
"Ouch~"
"It's just revenge! I'll help you. You're nothing but a Qi Condensation Realm ant. Although I'm not at my peak..."
"But enough to crush someone with a single finger!"
Stop, young lad. At worst, I'll take your body and we can share one body; I can accept that too...
Stop!
"I told you to stop! You son of a bitch! Stop it now!"
"Young Master Jing! Brother Jing!"
Fellow Daoist Jing!
"Stop! Let's talk this out, why resort to this!"
"How about I forge a life-and-death pact with you, using a wisp of my own soul? I will surely help you eradicate the Qin Clan and avenge your parents!"
In conclusion--
The Ghost Elder's tone softened further, but even after Ghost Elder unleashed his natal soul, the soul shadow continued to disintegrate on its own...
It seems like he didn't care at all!
Just as the Three Ingenuities Soul was about to completely dissipate, and the Ghost Elder was filled with despair, the soul shadow finally stopped and spoke calmly:
I stopped...
"It's not because I'm afraid, but to prove to you that I'm not afraid of death, so if Ghost Elder don't want to die together with me..."
"Then behave yourself!"
"Your body will be mine sooner or later, but until then, please remember, I am the one who holds your life in my hands now!"
"What I said, you better listen to me, you Ghost Elder!"
"Understand?!"
Upon hearing this—
The shadowy figure flickered, then silently returned to the Three Ingenuities Soul. The silence spoke volumes; the Ghost Elder had finally chickened out...
If he were truly unafraid of death, he wouldn't have survived until now...
The longer you live, the more afraid you become of death!
This is especially true for old monsters like Ghost Elder, who have lived for who knows how long; the longer they live, the more they can comprehend the grandeur of the world...
The more it confirms one's own insignificance and the silence that comes with death!
The soul shadow was on its last breath--
But thanks to the Ghost Elder's resources, he recovered almost completely in no time. He truly lived up to his reputation as a former master of the Soul Dao...
He truly has some unique insights into the path of the soul!
"With the Ghost Elder' help, that's how it is..."
"Then let this storm rage even fiercer! The Huang Clan and Zhang Clan must be wiped out! I want the entire Longchuan Prefecture..."
"They shall all be buried with my parents!"
Soul Shadow snorted coldly, and several soul imprints were activated...
Suddenly, a Dao Rhyme erupted simultaneously from several counties surrounding Longchuan, and even within the Xiashang Dao Academy in Xuan Prefecture...
The Northern Qin dynasty was established there, but it was also a place rife with brothels and other defilement!
Eight large characters stretched across the sky, but after only a few dozen breaths, they vanished and disappeared one after another...
Immediately afterwards--
Nearly a hundred Qi Condensation auras stepped through the void and sped off towards the north!
Some came to watch the drama unfold, others to take advantage of the situation, and still others, with ruthless intentions, sought to disrupt it and seize its legacy...
After all, if it can form Dao Foundation, it means that it most likely contains Third-Tier Cultivation Method inheritance!
Moreover, the inscription "Hidden within are the words 'flower and willow,'" clearly indicates that the Qin Clan has seized the inheritance of the Flower Willow Courtyard. Who knows, perhaps the Qin Clan patriarch...
That's the black-robed cultivator that Yan Miao Bai Clan was investigating back then!
With such high profits, anyone who wants to advance further will want a piece of the pie, not to mention other smaller factions...
Even if it's just taking advantage of the chaos, it's still a worthwhile endeavor!
Especially since the Qin Clan can produce Qi Condensation Pill, it's possible that the clan has a considerable stockpile, along with some True Martial forces...
They've all started to riot!
