Finally.
Was he too lazy to act? Was he not going to hide anymore?
Finally, he had officially jumped out?
Was it because he knew that his realm had surpassed his during the trip to the Heavenly Sword Sect, or did he feel that he couldn't hide it anymore?
Ling Yun came to the sky above the Ning Family's ancestral home. He turned invisible and flew straight up. One thousand meters, three thousand meters, ten thousand meters, twenty thousand meters …
Then, he stopped and floated in the air. He appeared and overlooked the entire Kunlun Mountain.
At such a high altitude, even with his God's Eye, he could only see the winding mountains. He couldn't see anything else.
Ling Yun's mind raced as he pondered.
Possession!
No matter how much he didn't want to admit it, the truth was right in front of him. Ling Yun could only give up hope and face what happened to Ning Lingyu.
Possession was actually a very common thing in the Cultivation World.
For Cultivators, as long as they advanced into the Nascent Soul Stage, when faced with a life-and-death situation, they would let their Nascent Soul leave their body as soon as possible. Then, as long as they found a body that was suitable for them, they would immediately occupy the body and erase the soul of the previous owner of the body!
Possession and rebirth!
This wasn't something to be surprised about, but the problem was that this possession happened to Ning Lingyu.
Ning Lingyu had been possessed.
In other words, something similar to possession had happened to Ning Lingyu.
The soul that was controlling Ning Lingyu's body was definitely not the Lingyu who had grown up with him. It was someone else!
Damn!
Ling Yun's face was gloomy.
This was a very tricky and troublesome matter. At least for the current Ling Yun, it was impossible for him to solve Ning Lingyu's problem with his own strength.
Ling Yun didn't even know if Ning Lingyu's original soul had been completely erased by this enemy.
This was what Ling Yun was most worried about.
"Don't panic, definitely don't panic. Panicking won't solve anything!" Ling Yun didn't forget to remind himself repeatedly.
Ling Yun quickly calmed down by using the Clear Heart Technique.
So, when did Ning Lingyu's change start? Other than the things that he had noticed before, were there any other details that he had overlooked?
Ling Yun started to recall the details of his interactions with Ning Lingyu. Like a movie, every scene flashed through his mind.
This time, he would not let go of even the slightest change in Ning Lingyu.
Four Nine Minor Heavenly Tribulations, a gift from the Heavenly Dao?
The first thing that came to Ling Yun's mind was, of course, the night when he and Ning Lingyu went through their tribulation at Miyun Reservoir in the suburbs of Yan Jiao.
This was because before Ning Lingyu's tribulation, her performance was very normal. There was nothing that Ling Yun felt was out of place.
Everything was afraid of the word "seriousness".
Ling Yun thought about it carefully and was shocked. His memory was extraordinary. As long as it was something that he had personally experienced, he could remember it clearly, even if it was just a sentence from the people around him or a slight change in their expressions.
When Ning Lingyu successfully passed her tribulation, she stood proudly in the sky with her long hair dancing in the wind. Her expression was cold and she looked like a fairy who had descended from the heavens.
Ning Lingyu's aura changed drastically!
What followed was a deluge of heavenly flowers and golden lotuses. The Heavenly Dao's gift descended.
At that time, Ling Yun hurriedly explained to her that the golden and purple Immortal Spiritual Energy was a gift from the Heavenly Dao. In the end, Ning Lingyu simply said, "I understand."
He remembered that at that moment, Ning Lingyu had her hands behind her back.
In Ling Yun's memory, the previous Ning Lingyu would never have her hands behind her back. Whether it was walking or standing, she would never have her hands behind her back. She did not have this habit.
After that, Ning Lingyu finished receiving the Heavenly Dao's gift. However, even with her Immortal Spiritual Body, she could only absorb five percent of the Heavenly Dao's gift. As for the rest, she had no intention of inviting Ling Yun over to absorb it together.
This was very abnormal. At that time, the tribulation clouds had already dispersed. The Heavenly Dao's gift posed no danger to Ling Yun. If it were anyone else around Ling Yun, they would have invited him over to take advantage of it.
So, from that time on, she had already rejected me. Or rather, she had started to be wary of me?
Ling Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he thought about this. He was just happy that Lingyu had received the gift from the Heavenly Axiom. He didn't even consider the illogical aspects.
However, just because Ling Yun didn't want it didn't mean that others didn't want it either. The Emperor Brush and Earth Emperor's Book appeared unexpectedly and started to plunder the bountiful gifts from the Heavenly Dao.
When this happened, Ning Lingyu let out a cold snort. It was obvious that she was extremely dissatisfied with this.
At this moment, Ling Yun was too excited about the Emperor Brush and Earth Emperor's Book to snatch the Heavenly Dao's Gift. Thus, he neglected Ning Lingyu's subtle behavior.
He still remembered that Ning Lingyu had asked him a question, and Ling Yun had explained it to him seriously. Thinking about it now, from then on, Ning Lingyu had already been putting on an act, feigning civility and sincerity.
With a thought, another thought was born, and it was endless.
Thinking about it again, even though the Emperor Brush and Earth Emperor's Book were busy helping Ling Yun snatch the Heavenly Dao's Gift from the Heavenly Dao, they would look down from time to time. The two artifact spirits concealed it very well and didn't say anything. Even Ling Yun was fooled.
Now that Ling Yun thought about it, that was …
Fear!
The void whirlpool, the giant lightning hand, the Emperor Brush and Earth Emperor's Book sealing the void and shaking the Heavenly Dao. Furthermore, the Emperor Brush had spoken a few times.
"Hmph, didn't I just take some spiritual energy from you? You still won't give up? There's no end to it!"
"Scram!"
"Seal!"
These were all said by the artifact spirit of the Emperor Brush. At that time, Ling Yun thought that the Emperor Brush was talking to itself because it was shaking the Heavenly Dao.
Now that he thought about it, he wasn't joking. He was speaking to the other party.
Of course, the other party here was definitely not Ning Lingyu, nor was it the Heavenly Dao. It was someone else.
The person who conjured the giant lightning hand! The owner of the giant lightning hand!
The Heavenly Dao's Gift wasn't really a gift from the Heavenly Dao. It was more like the owner of the giant lightning hand took advantage of Ning Lingyu's first Heavenly Tribulation to give her personal goods!
All questions were easily answered!
Therefore, ninety-five percent of the Heavenly Dao's Gift was taken by the Emperor Brush and Earth Emperor's Book. That was why the owner of the giant lightning hand, who had been observing in the dark, was so furious. That was why there was such a shocking battle!
Then, other than those personal goods … what else did the owner of the giant lightning hand give Ning Lingyu?
Did he take advantage of Ning Lingyu's Heavenly Tribulation to invade her soul and turn her into a different person?
Possession isn't difficult, but to do it during the Heavenly Tribulation … I'm afraid even immortals wouldn't be able to do it, right? Even if it's only the Four Nine Minor Heavenly Tribulation …
As Ling Yun thought about this, he unknowingly muttered to himself because it was truly unimaginable.
"Of course it's impossible."
A voice suddenly rang beside his ear.
Ling Yun turned his head abruptly.
The Emperor Brush's artifact spirit appeared suddenly. Its eyes shone with golden light as it stared at Ling Yun with a pained expression. It shook its head and sighed. "Kid, you've finally thought it through. It's been so frustrating!"
Whoosh!
Then, the Earth Emperor's Book's artifact spirit and the Old Man Shou Zhuo also appeared beside Cang Feng. They were still indifferent as they looked at Ling Yun with a smile.
Seeing the two artifact spirits appear at the same time, Ling Yun was instantly annoyed. "The two of you hid it from me!"
This was the truth. Ling Yun was really annoyed now.
The Old Man Shou Zhuo smiled without saying a word.
Cang Feng didn't care at all. He looked up at Ling Yun and said, "What's the use of not hiding it from you? Ning Lingyu had successfully passed the Heavenly Tribulation. Even if we took action at that time, it would have been too late."
Ling Yun was surprised. "Even you guys were too late? What's going on? "
He was actually very shocked. If the Emperor Brush and the Earth Emperor's Book couldn't stop the Heavenly Tribulation, what could he do to Ning Lingyu now?
The Hidden Edge Old Man chuckled, "Actually, you're right. Possessing someone during a tribulation is something even an ordinary celestial can't do. That is truly looking down on the Heavenly Dao and offending the Heavenly Dao. Celestials hate this the most, so how could they do such a thing?"
"That wasn't possession at all!"
"Not possession? Then what's going on? Don't tell me that Lingyu's personality was forcefully changed during the Heavenly Tribulation? That's why she became like this? "
The Old Man Shou Zhuo said, "That's not the case. However, it's not far from your guess."
"Possession is impossible. It's easy to change a leopard's skin, but it's hard to change a leopard's skin. That's why it's even harder to change a leopard's skin after just a mere Four Nine Minor Tribulation.
Old Man Hidden Edge explained indifferently before asking, "Kid, have you heard of two souls in one body?"
Ling Yun was speechless.
Two souls in one body. One person, two souls.
In other words, Fairy Zixia and Fairy Qingxia shared the same body.
Ling Yun only had one question in his heart, but he didn't know if he should say it.
Compared to possession, personality change, or the addition of another person's memories, having two souls in one body was the most troublesome!
Old Man Hidden Edge could tell from Lingyun's expression that he understood. He could not be bothered to explain further and said, "Kid, the owner of the lightning hand didn't take over Lingyu's body. He didn't remodel Lingyu's personality either. All he did was use a little trick to awaken Lingyu's other soul during her tribulation."
"It's just that the other soul was too powerful. Even though it had just been awakened, the Ning Lingyu who grew up with you was instantly suppressed. She could no longer communicate with the outside world."
Ling Yun understood instantly and was silent for a long time.
The truth was out.
After a while, Ling Yun spoke.
"That's why it's not about Lingyu's Heavenly Tribulation. It doesn't matter if she's Heavenly Tribulation or not, or even if she has embarked on the path of cultivation. Once the other soul wants to awaken the other soul, he will definitely have the means to do so."
This was the reason why Old Man Shou Zhuo and Old Man Cang Feng said that even if they joined forces, it would be useless.
Ling Yun had not become an Immortal, and the strongest he was was only in the Ascendant State. However, he knew that from the Golden Core Stage to the Ascendant State, there were countless ways to achieve this, not to mention above the Immortal Stage.
Old Man Shou Zhuo and Old Man Cang Feng nodded in agreement.
"That's why the problem with Ning Lingyu's soul wasn't on the day of the Heavenly Tribulation. It was even earlier, even before she was born!"
The moment he analyzed this point, Ling Yun broke out in a cold sweat!
Because, at this moment …
He remembered the long conversation he had with his mother, Qin Qiuyue, at the Qin Family.
PS: I've laid my cards on the table. Ning Lingyu's true identity is about to be revealed.
