No matter how hard the Crimson Divine General struggled, the surface of its body continued to spurt out billowing black gas. The boundless sinful red light was also rapidly dissipating.
Every word of Mahavairocana's transcendence was heavenly music. The ghostly citizens within the Crimson Divine General's body were transcended one after another and reincarnated into the Immortal Vault of Antiquity.
Just like that, Gu Hai fought and transcended at the same time. After a day, the Crimson Divine General finally calmed down and stopped attacking Gu Hai.
Moreover, its body shape was slowly changing. Gradually, the armor disappeared and it turned back into the shape of a withered tree root.
However, the withered tree root seemed to be alive. Its head was extremely old. Moreover, it had the shape of a human, like a skinny old man.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough!"
A series of coughs sounded like an old man with one foot in the grave.
"After transcending, the aura of fear that extended its life has also dissipated. Its life …!" Mahavairocana frowned slightly.
At that moment, although the Crimson Divine General still exuded a dangerous aura, it was already extremely old and had difficulty moving.
"Gu Hai? Cough, cough, we meet again! I didn't expect you to become so powerful now! "The withered tree old man that the Crimson Divine General had transformed into suddenly spoke.
"Hmm? You know me? "Gu Hai was surprised.
"I have offended you previously. My life force was already exhausted and I had reached the end of my life. However, a trace of stubbornness was still lingering in my heart. When I was in a deep sleep, Master Shou took the opportunity to refine me into the Divine General of Netherworld Flame for him to use. Unfortunately, the more he extended my life, the more my consciousness became blurrier. Now, I can barely wake up because of your transcendence!" The withered tree old man sighed.
"You know me? Who are you? At the same time, you know the moves of Rokudō Shin-kun and Jiang Lianshan. I don't remember you. "Gu Hai was surprised.
Gu Hai didn't remember the withered tree old man's ability.
"You have seen me before. However, I wasn't like this back then and I didn't speak to you!" The withered tree old man said bitterly.
"You are?" Gu Hai asked in a deep voice.
"I'm His Holiness's hoe!" The old man sighed.
"Hoe? Shennong Hoe? The fourth of the Sixteen Great Magic Weapons of Ancient Times, Jiang Lianshan's Shen Nong Hoe? "Gu Hai asked in surprise.
"That's right. You're suppressed here, but I'm not. That's why I was able to fight evenly with you earlier! If we were in the outside world, I wouldn't be a match for you! "Ku Mu said with a bitter smile.
"You actually have intelligence? Wait a minute. You followed us to eight hundred thousand years ago and stayed there with Jiang Lianshan until eight hundred thousand years ago? "Gu Hai asked with a frown.
"To be precise, I slept in the Eastern Spirit Fire Sea for 800,000 years. This is the place where His Holiness died! His Holiness died peacefully. At that moment, His Holiness seemed to have seen Murong Yan. Although he was crushed by Rokudō Shin-kun, His Holiness wanted to die. At the moment of his death, His Holiness left with a smile on his face! "Shennong Hoe said with a bitter smile.
"You're saying that Jiang Lianshan is dead?" Gu Hai frowned in surprise.
Jiang Lianshan is dead? Then who is the Jiang Lianshan I saw earlier?
Shennong Hoe didn't seem to understand the meaning behind Gu Hai's words. He nodded and said, "His Holiness fought with Rokudō Shin-kun for a long time. Rokudō Shin-kun used the Sacred Sword many times against me. During the battle, I also learned the Sacred Sword. Unfortunately, in the end, I was also riddled with holes. My hoe was destroyed in the battle, leaving me with only the hoe handle!"
"You learned the Sacred Sword from Rokudō Shin-kun? But you just said that Jiang Lianshan is dead? Then who was the person I saw a few days ago? Wasn't he Jiang Lianshan? "Gu Hai frowned.
"This is also the reason why I can't let go of my obsession. He is His Holiness, but he isn't! His Holiness wanted to die. When he died, his wish was fulfilled. But …! "Shennong Hoe said bitterly.
"Wait, tell me first. Who is the Jiang Lianshan I saw a few days ago? What do you mean by 'but he isn't'? "Gu Hai frowned.
Shennong Hoe looked at Gu Hai and sighed, "He is His Holiness's soul, the Fire Deity!"
"Fire Deity?" Gu Hai was stunned.
"Yes, His Holiness's three souls and six spirits were destroyed in that battle. However, the fire spirit, which is the Fire Deity, survived because of the Eastern Spiritual Sea of Flames. Although he has His Holiness's memories, a spirit body can't have His Holiness's emotions. He is the Fire Deity. Because of the power of the Eastern Spiritual Sea of Flames, he didn't dissipate. Therefore, he can't leave the Eastern Spiritual Sea of Flames!"
"He is Jiang Lianshan's Fire Deity? No wonder, from his conversation, I felt that he had lost his humanity. But he still had Jiang Lianshan's shadow! "Gu Hai frowned.
"A person's body has three souls. The seven spirits are derived from the three souls. Without the three souls, the seven spirits should dissipate. But it didn't. This Fire Deity has always been pretending to be His Holiness. He is only a part of His Holiness. How can he be qualified to pretend to be His Holiness? I once went to find him, but was severely injured by his scheme. Haha …! "Shennong Hoe said bitterly.
"The spirit body is also a part of a person. How can you …?" Gu Hai frowned.
"He is only a part of His Holiness. He can't pretend to be the whole thing. It's like if you lose your hair, can he pretend to be you?" Shennong Hoe said unwillingly.
"Uh!" Gu Hai was slightly taken aback.
"Gu Hai, how are His Holiness's family now?" Shennong Hoe looked at Gu Hai.
Gu Hai was silent for a moment, then told him what had happened in the past few years.
"See, if he is His Holiness, how can he watch Chiyou Crown Prince die? If he is His Holiness, how can he watch Murong Yan die? "Shennong Hoe said angrily.
"What is he planning in the Eastern Spirit Sea of Flames? When the Unborn Man interrogated Xiahou Shou, you mentioned something about the Vermilion Bird's treasure? "Gu Hai asked curiously.
Shennong Hoe was silent for a moment, then nodded. "His Holiness is a Fire Deity. He wants to obtain the Vermilion Bird's power and use the Eastern Spirit Sea of Flames to be reborn! All these years, he has been searching for the Vermilion Bird's treasure! "
"Reborn? Jiang Lianshan is resurrected? "Gu Hai's eyes widened.
"Heh, don't even think about it. The so-called Reborn does not mean that His Holiness can be resurrected, but that his Fire Deity Physique is transformed into a Soul Body. With his Fire Deity as the main body, he will form three new souls. It will not be the original His Holiness. At most, he will have a part of His Holiness's memory!" Shennong Hoe explained.
"The Vermilion Bird's treasure? We can't find it after eight hundred thousand years? That doesn't exist, right? "Gu Hai frowned.
"No, it exists. Eight hundred thousand years ago, when His Holiness fought Rokudō Shin-kun, we saw the Supreme Vermilion Bird!" Shennong Hoe said.
"You saw the Supreme Vermilion Bird? He didn't die? "Gu Hai was shocked.
"It's true. In this Eastern Spirit Sea of Flames, His Holiness Fire Deity Physique escaped Rokudō Shin-kun's destruction. It was the Supreme Vermilion Bird who helped him in the end!" Shennong Hoe recalled.
"What's going on?" Gu Hai asked in shock.
"That year, His Holiness fought against Rokudō Shin-kun. With the help of the Senyuan, Rokudō Shin-kun grew stronger and stronger. In the end, His Holiness was no match for His Holiness. In this battle, His Holiness vented the last bit of regret in his heart. In the end, he prepared to draw the power of the Eastern Spirit Sea of Flames into his body to self-detonate. He was prepared to die together with Rokudō Shin-kun!" Shennong Hoe recalled.
"Draw the power of the Eastern Spirit Sea of Flames to self-detonate?"
"Yes, but it didn't succeed. Rokudō Shin-kun used the Senyuan to draw the power of the three thousand Great Daos to seal His Holiness, preventing him from self-detonating. Just as Rokudō Shin-kun was about to destroy His Holiness, His Holiness's body finally exploded with a burst of flames. Even I was blown away. The burst of flames avoided Rokudō Shin-kun's attention, and His Holiness's body was blown to pieces!" Shennong Hoe recalled.
"That burst of flames?" Gu Hai frowned.
"Yes, it was that burst of flames. That burst of flames brought His Holiness's Fire God and me into the Sea of Flames. After Rokudō Shin-kun left, it condensed into a huge flaming Vermilion Bird!"
"The flaming Vermilion Bird sealed a wisp of Nanming Primordial Fire into His Holiness's Fire God, preserving the Fire God's body. It told him that as long as he didn't leave the Eastern Spirit Sea of Flames, the Fire God's body could continue to survive in the Eastern Spirit Sea of Flames. The Vermilion Bird also said that it was only a wisp of his energy body. The rest of his energy was sealed somewhere in the Eastern Spirit Sea of Flames, and it told His Holiness's Fire God to find the Vermilion Bird's treasure. Then, he could use the Vermilion Bird's treasure to be reborn! "Shennong Hoe recalled.
"A wisp of the Vermilion Bird's energy body?"
"Yes, it seems that the Vermilion Bird was sealed somewhere. Even he himself couldn't say where it was. He only knew that in the Eastern Spirit Sea of Flames, the Vermilion Bird finally managed to release a wisp of energy. However, this wisp of energy couldn't last for long. It disappeared after mentioning the Vermilion Bird's treasure!" Shennong Hoe recalled.
"And then?"
"And then? His Holiness's Fire God wanted to refine me and asked me to listen to his orders. Heh, I only listened to His Holiness. How could I agree to him? After all, I was a part of His Holiness. However, I was framed by him and managed to escape. Later, I went to seek revenge but failed. I couldn't accept it. I wanted to destroy him, who was pretending to be His Holiness. This is the only thing that kept me alive until now! "Shennong Hoe said hatefully.
"You want to destroy him?" Gu Hai asked in a low voice.
"That's right. His Holiness's three souls are the foundation. If the seven spirits are scattered, as long as the three souls are there, a new body can be formed. In other words, the spirit body is just a spirit body. His Holiness's Fire God is the same as my spirit body. How could it be qualified to refine me?" Shennong Hoe said in a low voice.
"It's been eight hundred thousand years. He still hasn't found the place where the Vermilion Bird was sealed?" Gu Hai frowned.
"Eight hundred thousand years. It's enough time for him to dig three feet into the Eastern Spirit Sea of Flames. Unfortunately, if he hadn't met the Vermilion Bird at that time, no one would have believed it!" Shennong Hoe sighed.
"I understand now. Why does Jiang Lianshan need Jing Wei? He needs the Vermilion Bird God in Jing Wei's body to help him find the Vermilion Bird, open the seal, and borrow its treasure to be reborn?" Gu Hai said in a low voice.
"Vermilion Bird God?" Shennong Hoe was startled.
Gu Hai told him about Jing Wei and Lin Wan 'er.
"So that's how it is. Haha, he really is unscrupulous. He tricked His Holiness and turned the little princess into something neither human nor ghost. So it was just to satisfy his own selfish desires. He, he found a node in the Eastern Spirit Sea of Flames. He wants to use the Vermilion Bird God to use that forbidden technique. He wants to sacrifice the princess's life to the Eastern Spirit Sea of Flames to open the Vermilion Bird's seal?" Shennong Hoe said with an ugly expression.
"Sacrifice Wan 'er's life? He wants to kill Wan 'er and kill Jing Wei? "Gu Hai's expression turned cold.
