What If I Can't Die? - Chapter 416

416 Heading to the Black Spirit Realm
When he returned home, Song Shi took out a golden bamboo. There was the power of lightning inscribed on it, and it’s power was of extreme Yang.

He took out other materials and began to refine a puppet with bamboo as the main body. The excess bamboo was refined into a long sword.

After more than half a year, a high-level puppet had been refined. It was much more powerful than the Battle Puppet he had previously drawn, and its upper limit was higher.

After making preparations, Song Shi’s thoughts entered his sea of consciousness. His Essence Soul formed a seal and began to split into a portion, forming a Soul Clone.

This was only one-tenth of his original Primordial Spirit, but it still brought about the pain of splitting. Song Shi gritted his teeth and pointed at the puppet.

Swoosh!

The Soul Clone turned into a ray of light and injected into the puppet. The patterns on it that were similar to Dharma treasures suddenly lit up. The surrounding Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth quickly gathered towards it. After the injection, the entire puppet floated in the air.

Click, click.

The puppet’s eyes lit up. It nimbly spun around, twisting its limbs and moving its body. At the same time, a circle of energy spread out like a stream, and the entire puppet seemed to come alive.

The Soul Clone was also a Primordial Spirit. It did not have a real physical body but a special vessel as its body. Hence it could still mobilize the power of heaven and earth. However, the quantity and quality it could mobilize were slightly inferior to the main body, so its strength was naturally inferior.

However, the puppet had an energy core. He could also absorb the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth. Coupled with his Soul Clone, he could unleash a rather powerful combat strength.

A powerful fluctuation brewed on the puppet and quickly reached the early-stage Soul Transformation realm. It was far stronger than the clones cultivated by other incarnations.

Apart from the fact that the puppet itself had a certain level of strength and that Song Shi’s Essence Soul was also stronger than ordinary Soul Transformation cultivators. Naturally, his Soul Clone was also stronger.

After familiarizing himself with the puppet’s body, the Soul Clone’s thoughts changed. He controlled the clone to change his skin and clothes, and in the blink of an eye, the clone became like a normal person.

“Not bad. It’s won’t be a problem for it to guard my hometown.”

Song Shi nodded in satisfaction. He refined clones mostly because he wanted to leave a backup at home. So that he could know if anything happened.

After all, if his clone was destroyed, he could sense it even in the Upper Realm. It would be extremely convenient.

After the clone’s cultivation was completed, Song Shi sorted out his current resources.

He could not go to the Heavenly Demon World for the time being. Hence he wanted to go to the Black Spirit Realm to cultivate and increase his cultivation as soon as possible.

The destruction of the spatial passageway to the Heavenly Demon Realm was only temporary. In the end, he still needed to be strong enough to ensure the safety of his hometown.

Many things were taken out and placed in front of him. For a moment, treasure light flickered, and the scene was extraordinary.

“Spirit Rising Pill? It’s useless to me. I can leave it at home.”

“So is the Extreme Spiritual Armor.”

“I’ve already read the Sword Refinement Record. There’s no need to bring it.”

Song Shi removed all the items that were not suitable for him, leaving only three items.

A golden rope.

This was the Immortal Binding Rope, a replica of an Immortal Artifact. It was a special secret treasure that had no Weapon Spirit and could trap existences below the Immortal Realm.

A Jade Slip was the first chapter of the Void Sutra given to him by the artifact spirit of the Langya Mystic Realm. He kept it as a keepsake.
The rest were soul stones that he had to use to cultivate his Primordial Spirit. The other cultivation techniques, talismans, Dharma treasures, and so on were all left behind by him.

He did not even keep spirit stones, which were basically useless in the Mystic Spirit Realm. His family needed these even more. He could earn them himself after he went to the Black Spirit Realm.

After tidying up, Song Shi waited for Wu Xi to return and distributed some resources according to everyone’s situation.

While the girls were overjoyed after obtaining the item, they also guessed that Song Shi was about to leave again.

After staying at home for half a year and still not getting the women pregnant, Song Shi left resentfully and came to Langya Mystic Realm.

Other than responding to the spirit of Langya Mystic Realm, he also could only go to the Black Spirit Realm through the passageway left behind by Sage King Lang Ya.

Otherwise, with his current strength, he would not be able to easily reach the Black Spirit Realm in the endless void.

“Old man, I’m here as promised!”

Song Shi shouted from the spot where Langya Mystic Realm had appeared. He could roughly sense that there was a huge creature in the depths of the void here.

Not long after he shouted, the void fluctuated, and a resplendent silver light scattered down from the void. The space was like water flowing as an old man in white walked out.

“Little friend, I didn’t expect to meet you so soon.”

The Spirit of the Mystic Realm was still very spirited. There was surprise in its eyes because Song Shi had improved too quickly.

In just a few years, the Golden Core back then had already become the current Soul Formation True Venerable. His progress was unbelievably fast.

“I’m here to keep my promise. Give me the rest of the Void Sutra and open the passageway to the Upper Realm.”

Song Shi did not stand on ceremony. The two parties were working together to begin with after all.

“The rest of the Void Sutra can only be obtained after you find the Sage. There is indeed only the first chapter in this world. As for the spatial passageway between planes, I can open it for you now.”

The Spirit of the Secret Realm said.

“Alright, after I go to the Upper Realm, if there’s a chance, I’ll save Sage King Lang Ya.”

Song Shi did not dwell on the Void Sutra. For him, the first chapter was enough for the time being.

“Yes please. Sorry to trouble you again.”

The spirit of Langya Mystic Realm smiled. This person should be the reincarnation of an immortal. Otherwise, he would not have improved so quickly.

He didn’t do anything, but a vortex appeared in the space around him. After quickly expanding, a spatial passageway appeared. It was deep and bottomless.

“Little friend, be careful. This passageway has not been maintained for more than ten thousand years. Little friend, your body is strong, so your life should not be in danger. But you still have to be careful not to get lost in the void storm.”

The Spirit cautioned.

“I know.”

Song Shi nodded. It was not like he had never walked through a spatial passageway before. He knew the general situation of the spatial passageway.

“I’ll go first. See you next time.”

With a wave of his hand, Song Shi strode through the vortex and entered the passageway. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.

The Spirit of the Hidden Territory looked at the passage and sighed, “Let’s hope that there will be a result this time. I have arranged for the aid of many geniuses over the years, but none of them have succeeded.”

He turned around and left. The spatial vortex quickly disappeared, and the surroundings restored back to it’s original state.

Song Shi walked in a silver-white passageway. Silver runes circulated around him from time to time, forming a barrier to block the storm outside.

This was different from the passageway of the same Demon Realm. That passageway was much more chaotic.

“One is naturally formed, the other is artificial.”

Song Shi could tell the difference. The passageway to the Heavenly Demon World seemed to be a plane that was closer. After the space shattered, it was formed. Whereas this place looked like an artificial walkway.

The former could accommodate more people, but this place could only accommodate one or two people. Moreover, it also had spatial pressure.

Crack!

His arrival made the passage unstable. Before long, it cracked. A spatial storm blew in. The power that was enough to tear a Nascent Soul cultivator apart only made the holy light on Song Shi’s body brighter.

The further he went, the more dilapidated the passageway became. In the end, most of it was exposed to the spatial storm. If not for the traces, Song Shi reckoned that he would have easily lost his way.

After walking for a long time without seeing the Black Spirit Realm, Song Shi sighed. “As expected, the Black Spirit Realm is a little further from the Boundless Continent. It’s even more difficult to go there.”

After some time, Song Shi looked at the broken road in front of him. It was in a mess in the spatial storm.

“Damn it, after so many years of no maintenance, there’s no road ahead left?”
