Seeing Sima Zhen flee in a hurry, the old man’s soul sighed inwardly.
“If he had held on for one more second, I’m afraid I would have been exposed. Sigh, forget it! Forget it! A hero shouldn’t mention his past bravery!” He tumed his head to look at the young man who had fainted on the ground.
“Inever thought that the legendary Supreme Celestial Demon Body would actually exist in this world. The strength of this body is quite terrifying! To think he can tum the remaining spiritual energy in my remains for his own use and has even taken two Hunyuan pills consecutively, yet hasn’t died even
after such physically taxing actions! If he continues to cultivate, his future will be boundless!” Just as the old man was still clicking his tongue in wonder, a wave of spiritual energy wrapped around him.
“Spare me! Spare me! Lord, spare me! Today, you have barged into my realm, dispersed my cultivation, and stole my treasure. But just now, I have already chased away that enemy of yours. Can we consider this as putting aside the past feud between us and would you not pursue this matter any further?”
‘When Jiang Yiming woke up from his coma, the moment he opened his eyes, he saw a person in front of him. Before he could exert his strength, he saw that the person was kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy while bowing repeatedly.
In this desert that was riddled with holes, the scene in front of him was quite… comical?
“It’s you?” After seeing the person in front of him clearly, Jiang Yiming was also full of questions.
However, less than two hours ago, this person had just been clamoring to possess him. Even if he was now groveling, Jiang Yiming still had to guard against him.
“Hey, Ma-Master, you don’t have to be so cautious. I can’t hurt you in the slightest. You’ve just reached the Incarnation Realm and experienced a bitter battle. It’s better for you to calm down and circulate your spiritual energy first. I have some hidden pills here, you see.
“shut up!”
‘What the old man said was true. Jiang Yiming was in a terrible state. He didn’t even have the strength to speak while holding onto the primordial spirit with a streak of his spiritual energy now.
This old man should have died in that small world, yet he was now bowing to him and calling him ‘Master’.
‘What tricks did he have up his sleeve?
“Master, there’s no need to panic. Let me explain to you. I’ve given something called the Soul-lock Prison back in my world just now, do you still remember it?”
Jiang Yiming nodded, and the pocket-sized square-shaped Soul-lock prison appeared in his hand.
“Twas originally quite a powerful individual back in my day, but my talent was insufficient. In the end, my cultivation could only stop at the peak of the Fusion Realm. Unknowingly, my lifespan was about to run out, and I was just unwilling to face death then. After all, I was on the verge of finding the
method to advance to the Mahayana Realm.”
Jiang Yiming raised his eyebrows. To think the old man was at the peak of the Fusion Realm before his physical body was destroyed!
No wonder he had been so powerful even with only had a wisp of his primordial spirit left!
“In the end, I sneaked into the forbidden grounds of my sect and stole the forbidden technique. Before my life was over, I combined it with the heart technique I practiced and built a place that was exclusive to me for cultivation. I designed it so that when I died, I could put a wisp of my primordial spirit
and my corpse into it. Then, I used all kinds of enticing methods to trick people into coming to my realm and thus killing them to prolong my life.”
At this point, the soul raised its head and asked, “However, Master, there’s something I don’t understand. Usually, when I need to replenish my spirit to extend my life, I will deliberately reveal the aura of a secret treasure to lure people over. Then, I will reveal a flaw to make people fall into the trap.
However, I had only been cultivating today, so I wonder how you found me and how did you figure out the method to break my barrier?”
“Why are you calling me Master?” Jiang Yiming didn’t answer the old man’s question but instead asked.
“Tm sorry for blabbering! Please don’t be angry, Master, cough, cough,” The old man’s soul looked terrified and he coughed twice.
“A human’s lifespan is determined by the Heavens. If one can’t become a Celestial, no matter how great one’s power is, one simply can’t escape the process of reincarnation between Heaven and Earth. It’s only because I have created that secret realm that I could prolong my life by harming others. Once I
leave the place and can’t advance my realm, I won’t live for more than a few hours. However, if I have it, then that’s a different story,” The old man pointed at the Soul-lock Prison in Jiang Yiming’s hand.
“When I was falling just now, I felt very unwilling to die, so I voluntarily threw myself into the Soul-locking Prison. When I handed the Soul-lock Prison over to you, it already belonged to you. Unless you hand it over personally, no one else can use it.”
Jiang Yiming looked at the square-shaped Soul-lock Prison in his hand, somewhat puzzled.
He voluntarily entered the Soul-lock Prison? Could it be that just by doing so, he could escape the karma of life?
“Iknow Master’s doubts. Entering the Soul-lock Prison is easy, but getting out of it is difficult. Once one enters, a large amount of one’s cultivation will be refined and will belong to the Soul-lock Prison’s Master. However, the souls within the prison will not be affected by karma. They will be able to exist
in the form of souls within the prison and suffer endless torment. However, isn’t this also a way to extend one’s life? Although one can not cultivate in the prison, if one is lucky enough to encounter an opportunity and gain the help of somebody, one might be able to reconstruct one’s physical body,
escape karma, and once again walk on the path of cultivation to become a Celestial!”
“Isn’t it a little too east if one can just extend one’s life this way?” Jiang Yiming frowned. The old man’s words were a tad too mysterious. He found it hard to believe.
“Sigh, the Soul-lock Prison is one of its kind in the world. I found it by chance in a cave. Master, if a person in the Fusion Realm comes to you now and says that he would like to borrow your Soul-lock Prison to extend his life, would you lend him a hand? Or would you squeeze out all of his cultivation and
take it for your own use after he enters the Soul-lock Prison?”
“Theard that if one is able to reach the Mahayana Realm, there will be quite a number of forbidden techniques that can help one avoid the reincarnation of life and death. Who would take the risk to do this? In the face of such a temptation, forget about brothers, even father and son might turn against
each other, no?”
The old man sighed, “I am now bound to the Soul-lock Prison. Master, you need not be so cautious. My soul is at your mercy.”
“What if I want you to die?” Jiang Yiming laughed coldly. With that, the old man’s entire body began to burn intensely!
“No! No! Master! I still have something to say!”
“Oh?” With a thought, the flames on the old man’s body were instantly extinguished.
Seeing that what the old man had said was true, Jiang Yiming ceased using his spiritual energy to guard against him. He took a pill and started to recover the spiritual energy that he had used up in the battle just now.
“You still have something to say? From what I’ve heard from you, you’re looking for someone to help you to cultivate in the prison as well as reconstruct your body. The ‘someone’ you are talking about isn’t me, right?” Jiang Yiming teased, “Aren’t you afraid that Ill refine the last bit of your soul and take it
for my own use?”
“Tm also here for this matter,” The old man smiled slyly, as if he already had a plan in his heart..
