As the Universe Turns - Chapter 197
Chapter 197 Deliberation
“Pu!”
Hua Weiyang couldn’t help but laugh when he heard him blow away. Ku Lingzi was immediately unhappy, “What? Little girl doesn’t believe this old man’s words?”
“No, no, no …”
Hua Weiyang smiled as he shook his hand, “I believe I believe … But, how did Senior get sealed in this jar?”
“You …”
Seeing that not only did she not open the pot, but she even called the Soul Altar that sealed the primordial spirit a “pot”, Ku Lingzi stopped laughing and said, “Senior, why don’t you tell us? This way, we can understand clearly and relieve Senior.”
“Sigh …”
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Ku Lingzi sighed. Finally, he slowly said, “Back then, when I fought against the heavenly tribulation, I was plotted against by several great enemies. In the end, in order to protect my primordial spirit, I could only sacrifice my physical body …”
“Mm … then what?”
Hua Weiyang didn’t care if what he said was true or false. After listening for a while, Ku Lingzi continued, “For so many years, I was unable to find a suitable physical body. It wasn’t until three hundred years ago that I accidentally discovered a person. That physical body was most suitable for this old man …”
He could hear his tone at this moment, as if he still remembered what happened more than three hundred years ago. At this point, he sighed and continued, “It’s a pity that that person’s will is too strong, and his resentment is too heavy. He was seriously injured, yet I actually failed to seize it, and afterwards …”
“What happened afterwards?”
At this moment, Hua Weiyang’s expression suddenly became exceptionally solemn. There was no longer a trace of a smile on his face. Xiao Chen looked at her and felt that she had suddenly become a little strange.
“Afterwards …”
At this moment, Ku Lingzi’s tone also changed. It didn’t seem like he was just making up nonsense, He said, “Later, when I was going to try again with my soul power, a black wind suddenly came from somewhere. The aura made me feel very depressed. The black wind came very quickly and instantly covered the person I was about to take away. I didn’t even see who it was.”
Hearing what he said, Hua Weiyang could imagine the thrilling scene at that time. Ku Lingzi failed to take possession of his body, and his origin soul was severely injured. The person hiding in the black wind could destroy his body and soul with a single blow, but that person did not attack him. Could that person really be …
“Sigh …”
Ku Lingzi suddenly sighed. ‘”I used to think that my cultivation was strong enough to look down on the world. If I were to recondense my body, no one would be my match. I never thought that there would actually be such a powerful person hiding in this world. Indeed, it was the outer tower of the Castle Peak outside the mountain. At that time, I lost my possession and my primordial soul was extremely weak. If the people in the Black Wind wanted to destroy my soul, it would be easy …”
At this moment, Xiao Chen began to ponder. More than 300 years ago, and more than 300 years ago, it seemed that many things had happened more than 300 years ago. Previously, he had heard Senior Lonely Lamp say in Celestial Pogoda that since Nameless jumped off the Ghost Cry Cliff, he had never appeared again. Could it be …
“Alas!”
Ku Lingzi suddenly sighed again and interrupted his thoughts. He continued, “At that time, my origin soul was weak. I was worried that that person would return, so I immediately left. I wanted to find a deserted place to recover my origin soul, but I didn’t expect that I would actually meet that old man from the Ye Clan on the way … You already know what happened afterwards.”
“Ye Zhiqiu had only just reached the Void Refining and Dao Harmonization Realm. If I had successfully seized the treasure at that time, one finger would have annihilated both his body and spirit!” He snorted unwillingly.
Hearing him say so much, Hua Weiyang didn’t know whether it was true or false. However, he couldn’t delay the life and death backlash of the idiot anymore. If this person really had a way to cure the injury on the idiot’s body, it wouldn’t be a bad thing. Although Ku Lingzi used to be very strong, he wouldn’t be able to play any tricks without his physical body now.
Thinking of this, she nodded and said, “Alright, the two of us will help Senior’s soul escape, but Senior, please don’t break your promise. You are an expert of Senior, so you won’t lie to two children, right?”
“Haha!”
Ku Lingzi laughed loudly, “Little girl, you underestimated the word ‘Ku Lingzi’. Back then, when I fought against the heavenly tribulation, your two little babies weren’t born yet. Even though I was assassinated by seven people, I still killed two of them and heavily injured three of them! The remaining two were Xuanxiao Palace True Monarch Xuanxiao and the Profound Nether Monarch of Freedom Tower!”
At this moment, Xiao Chen’s heart finally stirred. It turned out that Ku Lingzi was one of the seven great enemies of True Monarch Xuanxiao back then. The other was incredibly powerful. He was actually the owner of one of the Great Devil Sect’s Xiaoyao Towers in the Immortal Origin Five Regions.
The grudges and grudges of these people didn’t seem to be simple. It must have happened many years ago.
“How is it? Little girl, do you believe what I said now?”
Ku Lingzi’s voice came from the bone altar again.
Hua Weiyang smiled gently, “Alright, this is the deal. The two of us will get the Seal Release Talisman for Senior to help him escape. Senior must think of a way to cure the life and death backlash on his body.”
Of course, she wouldn’t trust Ku Lingzi so easily, but right now, she could only obtain the Seal Release Talisman first. No matter what, Ku Lingzi would still be saved. This was related to the life and death of a fool.
However, Patriarch Ghost Tuo was not easy to deal with. Now that there was a change in her plan, she had to reformulate it. Otherwise, if something unexpected happened halfway, the consequences would be unpredictable.
“Idiot, what do you think?”
Hua Weiyang sent a secret message to Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen looked at the bone altar on the ground and sent back the secret message, “What this person said may not be completely true. In short, first get the unsealing talisman, then everything that follows will be done according to the opportunity.”
“Mm …”
Hua Weiyang frowned slightly. If it was a trivial matter, she naturally did not need to discuss it with Xiao Chen. However, the matter before her was no longer a trivial matter. However, she believed that nothing unexpected would happen to Xiao Chen.
“Next, please conceal your soul aura. Don’t peek outside. Otherwise, if Patriarch Ghost Tuo finds out, we will be helpless.”
“Of course I understand.”
The last sentence came from the bone altar, and there was no more sound. It looked just like the other bone altars, ordinary and no different.
Half an hour later, the two of them had already finished their preparations. They immediately headed towards the Ghost Tuoluo Mountain. When dusk approached, they arrived near the foot of the mountain. They saw the distant mountain peak towering in the dusk, surrounded by a strange mist. It looked exceptionally cold.
That mountain peak was the Ghost Tuoluo Mountain. Not to mention the fact that there were few humans, even birds and beasts could not see a single one of them within a radius of tens of kilometers.
“Here we are, this is the place …”
Hua Weiyang looked at the mountain in front of him, feeling an indescribable coldness. He covered his shoulders with both hands and couldn’t help but tremble.
“Is it cold?”
Xiao Chen looked at her and asked.
“Nothing … nothing.”
In order to avoid revealing any flaws later, Hua Weiyang had to put down her hand and forcefully withstand the cold air. She hoped that she could get the Seal Release Talisman as soon as possible and leave. Otherwise, it would be even colder on the mountain, and she would not be able to hold on for long.
“En … let’s go.”
Xiao Chen injected a pure Yang Qi into her body, helping her temporarily defend against the cold Qi of Ghost Tuoluo Mountain. The two of them immediately rode their flying swords forward.
When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, two sword lights suddenly flew over from the mountain. Close by, there were two men dressed in black.
The two of them swept their eyes over Xiao Chen and the man on the right frowned slightly. “Ye Family? Why did they come so late?”
