Naturally, Su Zimo knew that the reason why the tiny golden flame possessed such terrifying might was not because of his Essence Spirit Fire.
Or rather, it was not an Essence Spirit Fire.
It could only barely form an Essence Spirit Spark with almost no power.
But because of his spark, it ignited the thin layer of oil inside the lamp and released the power of the Soul Lamp!
However, where did that layer of oil come from?
When he first obtained the Soul Lamp, he saw clearly that there was only the word 'Soul' in the lamp without any oil.
Furthermore, even if there really was lamp oil, it would have dried up long ago after so many years.
Su Zimo stared at the Soul Lamp and fell into deep thought.
A moment later, a thought flashed through his mind as he thought of a possibility.
Souls!
Although the black-robed old man severed his arm in time, his soul was still devoured by the Soul Lamp.
There was a high chance that those souls had become the oil of the Soul Lamp!
It was an ancient bronze lamp that could only be ignited with the oil of souls!
That should be the origin of the name 'Soul Lamp'.
That was not the only thing that shocked Su Zimo.
The flames of the Soul Lamp incinerated the black-robed old man's soul.
Familiar faces appeared in the void one after another.
Those faces were no longer menacing or terrifying as they transformed into human forms. They bowed deeply in the direction of the Soul Lamp and looked at Su Zimo gratefully before bowing.
Thereafter, those faces vanished completely.
Su Zimo watched everything in a daze and was enlightened.
A moment later, he gradually understood.
Over the years, the black-robed old man had devoured countless souls to cultivate to this point.
Those souls were controlled by the black-robed old man and could not enter the cycle of reincarnation to be reborn.
But now that the Soul Lamp had burned the black-robed old man to death, it was equivalent to purging those souls so that some of them could be freed and be reborn.
That was the reason why those souls were grateful towards the Soul Lamp and the Soul Lamp.
At that moment, the Soul Lamp was still burning with an extremely small golden flame. However, it seemed like it would never extinguish and was filled with a golden brilliance.
Actually, Su Zimo was standing in the light of the Soul Lamp as well.
However, the power of the Soul Lamp didn't cause any harm to his Nascent Spirit.
Su Zimo was also unable to determine the reason behind this.
Perhaps it was because he had ignited a Soul Lamp with his conflagrated spiritual awareness.
Therefore, this flame would not harm him.
If even the Hell Suppressing Cauldron couldn't devour a magic treasure like the Soul Lamp, it must have gained sentience.
It was also possible that the soul lamp had sensed the aura of the Prajna Nirvana Sutra on him, which was why it hadn't hurt him.
However, one thing Su Zimo was certain of was that he had yet to fully control the Soul Lamp.
Perhaps it was because his cultivation was not high enough, or perhaps it was because his Primordial Spirit was not condensed enough.
In short, when he tried to touch the Soul Lamp, he still felt a strong sense of danger!
Of course, Su Zimo was not in a hurry.
There would be plenty of time and opportunities in the future for him to slowly explore the secrets of this soul lamp.
He would try to become an Earth Immortal, and if that didn't work, he would become a Heavenly Immortal. One of these days, he would have complete control over the Soul Lamp!
So far, the Soul Lamp was not considered a trump card, nor was it of much help to him.
Because he couldn't control the Soul Lamp, he could only roll it up in his sleeve and throw it out. It was too easy for others to destroy it.
Any immortal art, divine ability, or Dharma treasure would be able to strike down the soul lamp.
The Soul Lamp could kill the black-robed elder mainly because it caught him off guard.
Moreover, the black-robed elder was a Ghost Immortal, formed entirely of his soul. Even the walking stick in his hand was formed from his soul.
To the black-robed elder, the Soul Lamp was his natural enemy!
"Eh?"
At this moment, Su Zimo suddenly realized something.
Standing under the light of the Soul Lamp, he could not feel the power of the imperial tomb's curse!
It was as if within the range of the Soul Lamp's light, there was a forbidden space that even the imperial tomb's curse could not penetrate!
Hiss!
Su Zimo was secretly shocked. This was a little too powerful.
One had to know that this curse was terrifying because even Immortal Emperors were not spared and died to it!
Moreover, there were two Immortal Emperors!
Now, the flame of the Soul Lamp could actually block the imperial tomb's curse!
What was the origin of this Soul Lamp?
"Strange."
Su Zimo suddenly thought of something.
According to what the Immortal Emperor said, he should have obtained this Soul Lamp long ago.
How could the Immortal Emperor die from the curse?
At this moment, Su Zimo suddenly felt dizzy. His body swayed slightly and he almost fell to the ground.
Just Now, he was hit by the black-robed elder's ghost face. His back was bloody and his organs were shaken.
This was nothing. With the self-healing power of Qinglian's true body, it would not take long for her to recover.
The main thing was the power of the curse that had seeped into her flesh!
Just now, Su Zimo was tense and temporarily suppressed the imperial tomb's curse.
Now that he was slightly relaxed, the power of the curse completely erupted and began to corrode, seeping into his organs and even into his bones!
Su Zimo finally understood why the Immortal Emperor died from the curse.
Although the flame of this Soul Lamp could block the imperial tomb's curse, it could not purge the curse from his body.
Su Zimo felt weak all over and knelt on the ground, unable to support his body.
If anyone else was around, they would be able to clearly see that green spots had already grown on Su Zimo's face and skin in a horrifying manner!
The imperial tomb's curse had completely erupted in his body and was destroying his lifeforce!
Green spots appeared on Su Zimo's bones.
The reason why he could still hold on and maintain his consciousness was because Qinglian's true body's bloodline was strong and was constantly producing new blood to fight against the power of the imperial tomb's curse.
However, if the power of the curse seeped into his bones, everything would be over!
At that time, his bone marrow would be tainted by the curse of the Emperor's tomb and the bloodline created would also carry the power of the curse. Su Zimo would be completely devoured by the imperial tomb's curse and die!
Su Zimo realized the danger he was in but there was nothing he could do.
Although he still had half of the Seven Dawn Immortal Ginseng, it was useless.
The Seven Dawn Immortal Ginseng could heal the dead and flesh of bones. No matter how serious the injuries were, it could be healed. However, it was useless against curses.
Originally, with the bloodline of Qinglian's true body, she could completely purge the imperial tomb's curse.
But now, Su Zimo's blood qi was weak and his stamina was exhausted after continuous battles. He was at his weakest and was severely injured by the Ghost Immortal. The imperial tomb's curse had seeped into his flesh, organs, limbs and bones.
Even with the bloodline of Qinglian's true body, she could not defend against it!
Su Zimo's body trembled slightly and the green spots on his face became denser. It was terrifying!
His lifeforce was constantly flowing away and could not be stopped!
Even the speed of the Creation Lotus Platform in his sea of consciousness gradually slowed down.
In this series of battles, Su Zimo had used up all his trump cards. There was nothing else that could help him survive this calamity.
The imperial tomb's curse was still crazily corroding his organs and bone marrow.
Su Zimo's limbs and bones were already tainted with the imperial tomb's curse. However, for some reason, the imperial tomb's curse still could not seep into his bone marrow!
It was as if his bone marrow contained some strange power that was blocking the imperial tomb's curse.
Su Zimo's head was dizzy and his consciousness became blurry. He could no longer feel the changes.
