What If I Can't Die? - Chapter 139
139 Eight Lifetimes of Bad Luck
“You can struggle even now? I have to say, your willpower is quite tenacious!”
The Blood-Robed old ghost squeezed out a sentence from its mouth. His entire body turned into a blood snake and corrosive power appeared in its mouth as it began to digest Song Shi.
At the same time, the blood saber on Song Shi’s body shone. Blood-colored snakes from the sabers entered his sea of consciousness and fused into the blood snake formed by the Blood-Robed old ghost. Soon, its body soon exceeded a thousand feet.
The entire scene looked like a giant python swallowing a star!
With the help of external forces, the Blood-Robed old ghost’s condition became better and better. As for Song Shi, he was already weak, so he basically had no strength to resist.
The star he transformed into kept shrinking, and finally, cracks appeared. The last bit of resistance collapsed, and his soul was swallowed by the blood snake.
The blood snake’s eyes lit up, it chuckled and said, “Next, I will digest the soul and inherit your memories. Then I will shoot your incomplete True Spirit into the wild boar’s body.”
“You’ve been possessed and died. Spirit+100!”
“You have absorbed strength from death and obtained 50 Freedom Attribute Points!”
“You will be resurrected in three seconds!”
“No resurrection location set. Resurrection on the spot by default!”
“Ding Congratulations on being killed by a new target. You meet the motivation conditions. If you kill the target within the specified time, you will be rewarded with one chance to draw the lottery.”
Amidst the system notification, three seconds later, Song Shi’s soul recovered.
The Blood-Robed old ghost suddenly felt that something was amiss. This was because Song Shi’s memories did not appear after absorbing his soul and possessing him.
Then, he felt that the soul he had swallowed suddenly disappeared.
In front of him, a star rose slowly. In the brilliant white light, Song Shi appeared.
The spiritual world that was originally collapsing quickly stabilized under this light. The blood-colored light that filled the surroundings was continuously forced back.
The Blood-Robed old ghost widened his eyes, “You!”
He could sense that Song Shi’s soul had completely recovered. Furthermore, it was far stronger than when he first possessed it. Currently he was not much weaker than him.
He really could not figure out how Song Shi did it. He could only attribute it to some special method that allowed him to recover in an instant.
“This is troublesome. When conducting possession, I can only advance forward and not retreat. I hope this is his last resort.”
The Blood-Robed old ghost narrowed his eyes. When cultivators possessed bodies, they could not stop once it started. Moreover, one body could not contain two souls and they could only fight until one’s death.
Since the other party had suddenly recovered, he would have to force his way through. He couldn’t return to his previous body because the essence of that body had already been sucked away when he left.
“Swallow me again!”
Song Shi smiled as he looked at the Blood-Robed old ghost with an ugly expression. Restoration made him feel very good, especially since it made the Blood-Robed old ghost unhappy. He felt good!
“I must see what method you used to achieve this!”
The Blood-Robed old ghost formed a seal and his throat suddenly enlarged exaggeratedly, as if a tumor had grown. A ball of Spirit energy was nurtured and was suddenly released as he opened his mouth.
Roar!
“Blood God’s Roar!”
A circle of Spiritual Energy was released, and ripples appeared in the Spiritual Space, forming an obvious Spiritual Storm.
Song Shi was shocked. This person actually knew Spiritual Attacks. He didn’t know anything and could only foolishly take the attacks head-on.
The storm instantly dawned upon Song Shi. Song Shi’s entire body was in a daze from the explosion. His soul twisted violently, and almost dissipated.
“So powerful!”
Song Shi finally understood why this guy was so famous 500 years ago. He really had many tricks up his sleeve.
Array Formations, weapon refinement, Spiritual Secret Skills he had already seen many of them.
His countermeasure was to transform into a star and condense his own soul.
A blood claw rapidly enlarged in front of him, piercing through his head and grabbing onto his soul.
Song Shi subconsciously slapped back and used the Dragon Subduing Palm. With a bang, his body retreated from the recoil and broke free from the Blood-Robed old ghost.
“I’m still not that powerful.”
Song Shi felt regretful. After all, the Dragon Subduing Palm was not a Spirit secret skill and could not unleash the power of the soul.
“Kid, you’re still too inexperienced to fight me!”
Blood-Robed old ghost had a domineering expression as his soul released all sorts of attacks.
Song Shi became a live target and could only be passively beaten. The disadvantage between both became greater and greater.
Half a day later, he was killed by the Blood-Robed old ghost and swallowed again.
After killing Song Shi again, the Blood-Robed old ghost clapped his hands. “Young man, you’re so young yet want to fight with me? Let’s see if you can recover this time.”
As he grunted, his soul seemed to be much weaker. He had yet to devour Song Shi’s soul to replenish his energy.
A Lunar Star rose slowly.
“What the hell!”
The Blood-Robed old ghost exclaimed. He could no longer maintain his composure and his face twisted into a horrified expression.
This kid’s soul had actually recovered again!
Blood-Robed old ghost was shocked and bewildered. His thoughts quickly swept around, hoping to discover some clues and find a way to deal with him.
“If you have the Blood Rebirth Secret Technique, can’t I have my own Rebirth Secret Technique too?”
Song Shi stood in the Lunar Star, emitting a dazzling light. His Aura right now was already comparable to the Blood-Robed old ghost.
“Hmph, it’s impossible for you to have a Blood Rebirth Secret Technique. Even if you do, it’s not something that someone of your level can control. I think you have a special Substitution Talisman that has deceived me twice. I don’t believe you can do it a third time!”
Blood-Robed old ghost gritted his teeth and focused on continuing to attack Song Shi’s soul.
With his Spiritual Level combat experience and his peak Restoration state, Song Shi had a much easier time dealing with them this time.
After a round of fighting, Song Shi still died under the Blood-Robed old ghost’s desperate attacks.
After the third resurrection, the Blood-Robed old ghost fell silent for a moment, his mentality clearly collapsing.
He finally understood why Song Shi was not afraid at all. He stared at Song Shi and roared, “It’s unfair. Why do you have a treasure that can protect your soul at such a young age? You didn’t even give me a chance to possess you.”
“Too bad. I am just that strong. If you are not convinced, you can continue to kill me.”
Song Shi smiled. From this moment on, he gradually took the initiative to attack.
“What the #@*%”
Blood-Robed old ghost began to curse. He could tell that he was no longer Song Shi’s match. As long as the other party keeps recovering, they would have to battle yet another round which would exhaust his soul to the point of his defeat.
“Don’t curse. Adults have to be responsible for their own actions. Since you’ve decided to possess me, you have to be prepared to fail.”
Song Shi smiled.
“I must have been cursed to eight lifetimes of bad luck that I chose to possess you.”
The Blood-Robed old ghost cursed.
“Then let’s end it.”
Song Shi’s gaze was cold as he transformed into a huge star and smashed over.
RUMBLE!
The situation reversed. The Blood-Robed old ghost began to be suppressed by Song Shi and finally was crushed.
“I can’t accept this!”
Blood-Robed old ghost’s expression was filled with unwillingness as he faced defeat.
Even after the sneak attack of the entire Vajra Sect, he still managed to survive. But now, he was actually defeated by a junior and his soul was about to be lost forever too.
If he was outside, he could still have survived with the Dao Blood secret technique, but here.
Because he was still in a soul state and had yet to reach the stage where he could split his soul between both worlds. He had no chance!
In the midst of his despair, Song Shi deliberately died once before reviving to peak performance, completely shattering the last trace of hope in his heart.
