"That's right." Lin Yi naturally wouldn't admit that he wasn't an alchemist, and it seemed that he had made the right bet. This thing was really afraid of alchemic fire, and it didn't seem to be just a normal kind of fear. Its previously calm voice was now filled with fear.
Lin Yi's words made the other party fall silent. After a while, it said, "Even if you are an alchemist, this is my territory. Without my permission, you will never be able to take her away, including your other companions. They will all get lost here and die."
"What do you mean by these words?" Lin Yi asked without batting an eyelid. In fact, Lin Yi was overjoyed. He knew that this thing was starting to give in. It didn't make a move, nor did it say anything too extreme. It only said that even alchemists couldn't leave its territory.
"It's simple. I'll let you go, but she has to go with me!" Although the thing didn't clearly say who she was, Lin Yi knew that she must be Wang Xinyan.
"Hehe, that's impossible." Lin Yi didn't even give it a chance to bargain and directly refused.
"Then you will be trapped here until you die. I'm leaving." The thing said after a moment of hesitation.
"Do you think that you can leave? If you want to fight to the death, then I don't mind. " Lin Yi once again condensed alchemic fire in his hand. During the conversation and the silence, Lin Yi had already begun to use the Art of Dragon Mastery to recover the physical strength that he used when compressing the True Qi bomb.
"Your physical strength is limited. I don't believe that you can keep chasing me with alchemic fire." The thing was obviously not stupid. It said calmly, "Before, what kind of martial technique did you use? You must have used up a lot of your True Qi, right? There shouldn't be much left now. "
"Is that so?" Lin Yi's lips curled into a mocking smile, and he immediately released his True Qi.
"Huh? That's impossible, in such a short time. You actually recovered seventy to eighty percent of your physical strength. How is that possible? " The ghostly thing screamed in horror, "Although this is a Blessed Land for cultivation, the density of the Zhen Qi here is gradually thinning. Even if you were here, it would be impossible for you to recover so quickly. This is impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"Maybe it's impossible. That's not what you say. It's the truth. " Lin Yi smiled faintly, then said: "The speed at which I recover my True Qi is this fast, so if this continues, it's hard to say whether you or I will die."
"…" That damned thing fell silent again. Obviously, it had tacitly agreed with Lin Yi's words. Otherwise, it wouldn't be in such a situation.
"Now, can we talk?" Lin Yi asked again.
"Alright …" That damn thing was annoyed by Lin Yi's tone. Although he agreed to talk to Lin Yi, he still added, "If I didn't exist in the form of a primordial spirit, you're just a small mid-Earth class alchemist. You wouldn't even be qualified to carry my shoes. "
"There's no if." Lin Yi was not annoyed. He just shrugged and said: "If I wasn't an alchemist, I wouldn't be able to let you talk to me as an equal."
"That's right … there's no if." That damned thing was slightly stunned. Instead, he said, "The victor is king, this is an unchanging principle since ancient times! If I didn't … Forget it, let's not talk about this … You're right, you do have the right to talk to me now. "
"Alright, let's talk, do you decide to fight to the death or let us go?" Lin Yi asked.
"It's absolutely impossible for me to let you go." That damned thing said decisively: "I've waited for so many years, finally this opportunity! I don't have time, the aura of heaven and earth here is getting thinner and thinner, I can't wait any longer, if I wait any longer, my primordial spirit will slowly dissipate … "
Primordial spirit? This was the second time Lin Yi heard this damned thing mention this name. Could it be that this damned thing in front of him was really a trace of a super powerful cultivator's soul left after his death in ancient times?
Lin Yi had read in some anecdotes that some cultivators could guarantee that their primordial spirit would not be destroyed when they died, and one day they could rebuild their body or take over someone else's body, but there was no confirmation of the truth of this matter.
Because in the current cultivation world, the highest master was the Heaven Stage master. Above that, Lin Yi really hadn't seen it, even Little Miss Rock Candy might not know about it, so for the things mentioned in the anecdotes, Lin Yi really didn't take it seriously before.
But now, hearing this damned thing mention it, Lin Yi's heart moved slightly.
"You are a primordial spirit?" Lin Yi asked.
"You know about primordial spirit?" That damned thing was obviously stunned.
"I heard that some high-level cultivators can guarantee that their primordial spirit will not be destroyed when they die, and one day they can rebuild their body or take over someone else's body. Is that true?" Lin Yi said what he knew.
"More or less." That damned thing didn't deny it.
"You want to take over someone else's body?" Lin Yi looked at Wang Xinyan, and his expression changed slightly. He suddenly thought of an extremely terrifying possibility.
"…" That damned thing was a little speechless at Lin Yi's words, "You think too much. Let's not talk about the fact that she is not a cultivator, she is just a mortal. I would choose you to take over someone else's body, not her! Besides, taking over someone else's body is a trick of the Demon Sect. I just want to protect my primordial spirit and rebuild my body one day. "
"I see …" Lin Yi let out a sigh of relief and said, "Then why are you looking for her?"
"I found a special aura on her body …" The ghostly thing said, "With this aura, I can speed up my cultivation. Right now, the Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi here is very thin. My cultivation speed is far from enough to replenish the daily consumption of my primordial spirit! In other words, I'm living off my primordial spirit, and if this goes on for too long, my primordial spirit will become unstable, and my soul will dissipate … "
Lin Yi's face changed a little at the words- he didn't think that this damned thing's senses would be this sharp, able to discover Wang Xinyan's secret! Lin Yi thought that this secret wouldn't be easily discovered by other cultivators …
After all, Lin Yi wasn't the only cultivator around Wang Xinyan. There were other cultivators around her, but none of them had discovered it. Now that this damned thing had discovered it, Lin Yi's face darkened a little.
"Oh? It looks like you've discovered this secret as well? " That damned thing saw the look on Lin Yi's face, and knew that Lin Yi probably knew about it as well. "That's right. You recovered your qi so quickly just now because of this strange fragrance?"
