Chapter 835 Immortal (6)
The expression on Xiao Bai’s face changed as he said hesitantly, “I seem to have heard of it before, but I don’t remember it very well. I only feel that the name Eternal Nightmare is somewhat familiar.”
The Poison Saint stared at Xiao Bai for a long time and slowly said, “That’s probably something you’ve heard of, right? Because the Eternal Nightmare isn’t just a poison, it also represents a very terrifying creature! Perhaps you’ve heard of the name of this creature.”
“Yes, yes, it seems to be the name of some creature.” Xiao Bai nodded repeatedly.
‘”Eternal Nightmare is the last Demon Emperor of Demon Clan. Tsk tsk, this Demon Emperor’s true body might not be very powerful, but its innate ability is really … too terrifying!”
“Its illusion skill is definitely the number one existence in history. Even if it is stronger than it, it can still be cracked. Once it falls into a dream, it may sink forever.”
“And there’s another terrifying thing. The Eternal Nightmare can be possessed by humans, manipulating a person’s movements through dreams, causing him to be unconsciously struck, and no one can detect anything unusual.”
“It was precisely because of this move that the Eternal Nightmare had caused internal strife among many great powers, and even destroyed them, turning them into dust of history.”
Xiao Bai sighed, “What a formidable innate ability! Isn’t this Eternal Nightmare too terrifying?”
Poison Saint took a deep look at Xiao Bai and said indifferently, “Little girl, have you really never heard of the name ‘Eternal Nightmare’?”
“Didn’t I say that just now? We seem to have met before, but I don’t know where I heard it. I don’t have many impressions.” Xiao Bai frowned, looking a little angry.
“Haha, it’s just a joke. Let’s get back to the point. Let’s talk about the poison this Miss Liu Ke’er is infected with.” Poison Saint chuckled softly.
“Miss Liu Ke’er’s poison is also called the Eternal Nightmare. From its name, one can roughly guess that this poison has countless connections with the Demon Emperor.”
‘”When and by whom was this poison made? There is no way to determine. However, one thing is certain. This poison was made from the blood of the Nightmare Demon Emperor!”
“Once you are poisoned by this poison, you will forever fall into a deep slumber. Unless your primordial spirit reaches a certain level of strength, it is almost impossible for you to free yourself.”
“Then what should we do? Do you have a way to treat it?” Xiao Bai hurriedly asked.
“I’ve never treated an Eternal Nightmare before, so I don’t dare to say that I’m confident. I can only say that I’ll try my best.” Poison Saint sighed.
“Then I’ll leave it to Poison Saint.” Xiao Bai said.
“Your little girl is quite sensible. How old is she this year?” Poison Saint asked intentionally or unintentionally.
“Twelve years old this year.”
“Oh? You’re so sensible at the age of twelve. You’re neither humble nor arrogant in the face of a great devil like me, and you speak very appropriately. I’m really shocked by you.”
Xiao Bai smiled faintly, “Because I know that you are here to help us, how can I be afraid? I usually speak more boldly. If there is anything wrong, please forgive me.”
“Mm, I’ll go back and prepare to treat Miss Liu now. I’ll look for some medicinal ingredients. I might have to wait a few days before I come back.” After Poison Saint finished speaking, he turned around and left.
“Take good care of Miss Liu. I’ll come back in a few days.” After Yin Qianyu finished speaking, she also quietly left.
Xiao Bai looked at the two leaving figures with a worried expression in his eyes. He sighed and said softly, “Big brother, when are you coming back?”
…
Outside, Yin Qianyu caught up with the Poison Saint and asked, “Lord Poison Saint, you seem to have been very concerned about the little girl’s situation just now. May I ask why?”
“How much do you know about the little girl’s origins?” Poison Saint asked.
“Xiao Bai’s origin? I’m not sure about that. When I saw Li Qing back then, I saw that he had this little girl with him. I don’t know where she came from.” Yin Qianyu shook her head.
“Then did you know that this little girl is human?”
‘”This …” With that, I came back to my senses. Ever since I saw her, I’ve been around twelve or thirteen years old. I’ve never changed my appearance! ” Yin Qianyu was immediately shocked.
“That’s right, this little girl is not a human, but is made from some kind of demonic beast!” Poison Saint said.
“Then why can’t I see the slightest flaw, nor can I feel any demonic aura from her.”
“That’s because her illusions are too brilliant! Not to mention that you can’t see through them, even I can’t do it. At a glance, it looks like a pure human! If you’re not careful, you might overlook them.” Poison Saint said.
“With your cultivation, you can’t even discover it?” Yin Qianyu was slightly surprised.
She knew that Poison Saint was an existence at the peak of the Void Realm. How could she not see through a little fellow’s illusion? This was clearly unreasonable!
“That’s right. I can’t even see through this little girl with my divine sense, so it’s a bit strange. It would be reasonable to say that this little girl’s cultivation is similar to mine.”
“But the problem is, this little girl’s strength is obviously not that strong, but her illusion cultivation has reached the peak of perfection, so I can’t help but be suspicious.”
Yin Qianyu said, “But this is just your guess. What if Xiao Bai is really just a human?”
“If it was just a guess, how would I tell you? I only dared to discuss it with you because I was confident in my heart.” Poison Saint smiled and said, “There are many other ways to distinguish illusions, not only with the naked eye, not just with spiritual sense.”
‘”The fake can never be real! No matter how real the performance is, there will still be flaws. The Eternal Nightmare incident back then caused the world to have an extremely high fear of illusions, so they came up with a variety of methods to deal with illusions and made tremendous progress.”
“As for me, I happen to know of a way to recognize such a brilliant illusion!”
‘”This method is modified from the Buddhist Mind-Eye Technique. It can see through the disguise of illusions. It does not rely on the surface image, but on the invisible sensation. As long as there is no resonance, then it must be a demon!”
“Heart and eye? So Lord Poison Saint has also cultivated such a secret technique!” Yin Qianyu smiled.
“What I have learned is extremely complex, all three teachings and nine streams, all of which are indispensable! This Mind-Eye Technique is an excellent method to deal with illusions, so how could I miss it?” Poison Saint smiled.
“Then do you dare to ask, Poison Saint, if you can clearly see Xiao Bai’s true form?” Yin Qianyu asked.
“No, Mind-Eye can only vaguely sense if the other party is human, but that doesn’t mean I can see through the other party’s illusions!” The Poison Saint shook his head. “If I could see through it, would I need so many probes?”
“What a pity.”
Poison Saint said, “However, although I didn’t see through Xiao Bai’s true body, I still have some speculations.”
“I would like to hear more about it.”
“First of all, I’m sure that this little girl’s cultivation is not high. Logically speaking, it’s impossible for her to conceal her divine sense from me. However, she did it. What do you think is the reason?” Poison Saint asked.
“I can’t guess.”
The Poison Saint said, “It is reasonable to be able to hide my divine sense when my cultivation is similar. However, there is only one explanation why a girl with such a low cultivation is able to do so. Her talent in illusions is outstanding and far exceeds our imagination.”
“As long as it’s a demonic beast, many of them have innate divine abilities. This little girl’s innate ability is most likely an illusion.”
‘”However, ordinary demonic beast talent cannot be concealed from me. Therefore, the little girl’s bloodline must be very special, and she might have a great background in Demon Clan.”
‘”As you saw earlier, when I spoke of the Eternal Nightmare, the little girl’s expression was obviously abnormal. She might have something to do with the Eternal Nightmare!”
Yin Qianyu couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air, “Little White actually has something to do with Demon Clan’s last Demon Emperor! Isn’t this a bit too big of a background? You know, the Eternal Nightmare of the past had provoked countless enemies. If Little White’s identity was exposed, then the consequences would be unimaginable.”
“This is not something we can worry about.” Poison Saint shrugged his shoulders. “Let’s go. I still have to study Miss Liu’s poison. This matter shouldn’t be delayed. I’m afraid that it will change if it’s too late!”
“Why is Lord Poison Saint so concerned about this matter?”
Poison Saint smiled and said, “My name is Poison Saint. How can I not be excited when I encounter any kind of strange poison? It’s just like when you encounter a peerless technique. Your mood is the same.”
“Over the years, I have traveled all over the world to collect all sorts of strange poisons. The Eternal Nightmare is something I have never encountered before. I have taken it as a great challenge in my life, not just to help His Highness the Saint Son.”
“Not only can you save Miss Liu, but you can also study the Eternal Nightmare. Poison Saint can kill two birds with one stone this time.” Yin Qianyu smiled.
…
Time passed in a hurry, five years later. Li Qing and Lord Chang Sheng had been engaged in a primordial spirit struggle. Sometimes they fought a great battle, and sometimes they fled like cats and mice.
In short, Lord Chang Sheng would not allow Li Qing to cultivate peacefully and would always find an opportunity to harass him.
It was under such circumstances that Li Qing used all of his strength to circulate the Heavenly Evolution Technique, continuously increasing his origin soul power. Fortunately, the nearby Demon Ancestor’s pure Soul Force was able to increase his speed very quickly, and he wasn’t affected by Lord Chang Sheng’s influence.
Now that such a long time had passed, Li Qing’s primordial spirit had finally reached a critical point after absorbing a large amount of Demon Ancestor Soul Force. Quantitative change had triggered a qualitative change.
Rumble!
His Primordial Spirit Golden Core spun at an extremely fast speed, as if it had transformed into a terrifying black hole, swallowing everything around it.
The amount of pure Soul Force left behind by the Demon Ancestor was originally considerable, but under this terrifying attraction, it was instantly swallowed and absorbed into Li Qing’s Immortal Primordial Spirit.
At this point, the soul power inherited from the Demon Ancestor had all disappeared, and was completely devoured by Li Qing, becoming a part of the Immortal Primordial Spirit.
Lord Chang Sheng looked at this scene with a frightened expression, “How is it possible that his origin soul power suddenly underwent a qualitative change, reaching a level comparable to that of a Dao Realm expert!”
“This freak, I’m not willing, I’m not willing!” Lord Chang Sheng let out a silent roar.
Li Qing’s Immortal Primordial Spirit was a level higher than an ordinary illusory Primordial Spirit. However, because his cultivation was too low and his Primordial Spirit wasn’t strong enough, he couldn’t do anything to Lord Chang Sheng.
But now, Li Qing’s Immortal Primordial Spirit had undergone a qualitative change, reaching a level comparable to a Dao Realm expert. This was almost the same level of strength as Lord Chang Sheng. In addition to his Immortal Primordial Spirit, Lord Chang Sheng was far from being his opponent.
“Lord Chang Sheng, you’ve lost!” Li Qing’s voice sounded cold as it transformed into a huge vortex, causing the boundless sea of consciousness to sweep towards Lord Chang Sheng.
