Zhang Xuan was intending to take a look at what the heart was, but as soon as he touched it, the other party took control of his body, rendering him unable to think. Left with no choice, he could only play along.
He didn't expect that the other party would really release him.
After releasing him, he quickly flipped through the books in the Library of Heaven's Path, and after reading them, he finally understood what was going on.
Even though the other party was imposing, he had just regained consciousness not too long ago. Even if he could possess Zhang Xuan's body, he would have to pay a heavy price for it.
On the other hand, if Zhang Xuan was willing to allow the other party to possess him, things would be much simpler.
Knowing that the other party was only putting up a strong front, how could Zhang Xuan show mercy? He immediately took out the Book of Heaven's Path.
The Book of Heaven's Path was the strongest artifact in the Library of Heaven's Path. Even if the other party was from the same era as Kong Shi, there was no way he would be able to withstand it!
As expected, as soon as the Book of Heaven's Path appeared, the other party seemed to have been shackled. At the same time, the energy that he had infused into Zhang Xuan disappeared, and he regained his freedom.
"Who am I? I am your grandfather!"
Zhang Xuan slammed the Book of Heaven's Path on the round platform. Unable to withstand the pressure, it immediately cracked open.
Hong long!
As soon as the round platform collapsed, the formation of the underground chamber seemed to have been destroyed. Spiritual energy scattered everywhere, and the underground chamber began to shake violently.
"Damn it, I forgot that this is the core of the formation..."
Zhang Xuan's face turned green.
He had just escaped from danger, and he wanted to smash the heart to death with the Book of Heaven's Path. However, he forgot that the heart was located at the very core of the underground chamber.
This underground chamber was protected by a formation that maintained spiritual energy and life. The core of the underground chamber was where the heart was located, which was the round platform.
Without the support of the formation, how could the underground chamber, which had been buried for tens of thousands of years, withstand the pressure? It collapsed immediately.
He was currently in the depths of the underground chamber, and it was at least two to three minutes away from the exit. His clone was also chased to an unknown location. If the underground chamber were to collapse completely, it would be impossible for him to escape. He would be buried alive!
"Don't kill me... I can bring you to a safe place..."
Seeing the Book of Heaven's Path continuing to press down on him, the heart cried out anxiously.
"Alright, I'll believe you this one time!"
He knew that there was nothing he could do even if he did not trust the other party. The underground palace had completely collapsed, and with his strength, there was no way he could escape. He could only rely on this heart.
The other party had lived for several dozen millenniums, so he should know the secrets of the underground palace very well. Perhaps, he might really be able to bring him out.
"If we don't kill him, can we seal him?"
Just as he was about to put the book away, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
There was a time limit to the golden book. Once it was retracted, it would disappear. Without this powerful tool, it would be difficult for him to control the other party once more.
Since this thing was capable of increasing his Soul Depth, allowing him to memorize knowledge, and killing enemies with his will … was it possible for it to turn into something and seal this heart?
As long as he was able to seal them, they would be unable to make a move on him, so there was nothing for him to fear.
Hula!
But before Zhang Xuan could finish his thoughts, the book suddenly flickered, and 'hu', opened up. With a light shake, the heart was clipped into the book.
Following which, the golden page lost its color and turned into an ordinary book before falling to the ground.
"Huh?"
Zhang Xuan caught it and opened it up, only to see a heart beating non-stop. No matter how hard it struggled, it refused to jump out, reminiscent of a bizarre painting.
"Let go of me …"
The heart bellowed furiously, and a savage face appeared on it.
"Bring me to a safe place!"
Zhang Xuan didn't think that the golden page would really possess the ability to seal, not to mention, it was so simple. He chuckled softly.
"I am the 'Vicious' whom even Kong Shi fears. How dare a mere junior like you disrespect me …"
The heart bellowed furiously, but before it could finish its words, a finger suddenly flicked toward it.
Peng!
As if struck by lightning, the heart jolted violently, and it flipped several times in the air.
"Vicious? Very well, come, give me a smile! Let me see how vicious you are! "Zhang Xuan glanced at the heart of the heart.
"…" The heart clenched tightly, and tears welled up in its eyes.
He was truly a Vicious who had dominated the world … Even though he had been killed back then and recovered several dozen millenniums ago, he was still able to kill Saint realm experts for fun …
Yet, he was actually sealed in a book by a twenty-year-old lad and flicked here and there …
The heck!
Where is my dignity as an Immortal's Envoy?
Even though he had no idea what kind of artifact the book was sealing him, he could feel the overwhelming authority of the heavens emanating from it, leaving him unable to stand against it.
Putting aside escaping, it was already a blessing for him to be alive.
"Why? Not smiling? "
Just as the heart of the heart was about to rage, the other party suddenly bent his finger and flicked it over …
"I'll smile, I'll smile …"
The heart immediately morphed into a human face, and a smile appeared on its face.
He had no choice but to smile. Now that he was sealed in a book and could be killed at any moment, no matter how formidable he was, it was useless!
Despite the smile on his face, his heart was dripping blood …
I've really fought with Kong Shi before. He was an expert who dominated the world, an existence that even Nine Stars master teachers could easily crush.
Yet, here he was, smiling apologetically …
"That's more like it. Hurry up and bring me to a safe place!"
Seeing that the other party was under control, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. At this moment, the ground was shaking more and more violently, and it seemed as if it would collapse at any moment.
"Yes!" Seeing that the other party had stopped flicking his finger, the heart heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he bellowed, "Hurry up and lead the way!"
Roar!
Hearing the command, the surrounding puppets immediately rushed forward, not daring to utter a single word.
Holding the book in hand, Zhang Xuan followed closely behind the puppets while communicating with his clone through telepathy.
Not too long later, his clone flew over and was kept into his storage ring.
His clone was forged using the Nine Hearts Lotus, so it was practically invincible. Even though it was being chased around by two puppets, it was still impossible for it to be killed.
It was just that it had expended too much of its zhenqi, so it would require a good rest before it could recover.
With the heart in hand, the puppets dared not show the slightest disrespect toward him. In fact, two of them even lifted him up, thinking that he was walking too slowly.
The Saint realm puppets ran with all their might, and in less than two breaths, they arrived at a relatively small room.
At this moment, the underground chamber finally reached its limit, and it began to collapse.
Darkness immediately descended upon the room.
Zhang Xuan tossed out a Night Illumination Pearl to illuminate the surroundings.
"This is a refuge left behind when the underground chamber was being built to prevent humans from exterminating the underground chamber. Even if the underground chamber collapses here, one can still survive. However … there's no exit here …"
Zhang Xuan said as he flipped open the book.
Back then, the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe had been hunted down by humans, and as one of the strongest of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe, it had left behind a way out for itself.
Even if a human were to chase after it, it would still be able to bring them down with it.
However, in order to prevent others from finding it, there was no exit here. It could only be said that it was safe for the time being. As for how to get out, it was still a mystery.
"There's no exit?"
Zhang Xuan frowned.
If he couldn't get out, was he really going to be trapped here to death?
"Yes …"
The heart nodded.
"Very well … Since I can't get out, I'll just have to find a way to tame you. Perhaps, I might be able to raise my cultivation!"
Zhang Xuan said as he flicked his wrist and pressed down on the page.
This fellow was sealed by the Book of Heaven's Path, so with just a thought, he could crush it to death.
"Wait a moment, wait a moment …"
The heart felt like crying.
Back then, when he had dominated the world, there was no one who didn't fear him. Even Kong Shi had to show him some respect. Yet, this fellow actually dared to beat him up as he pleased. This was driving him mad!
But what was the point of going mad? From the looks of it, the other party really did dare to tame him!
What the heck was this?
It had not been easy for him to wake up, and he thought that he would be able to roam the world once more. Who would have thought that before he could even leave the underground chamber, he would meet with such a monster and such a formidable artifact?
Back then, the Great Codex of Spring and Autumn that Kong Shi had painstakingly forged was said to possess the ability to reverse yin and yang and alter time. Even so, it did not seem to possess such formidable effects!
Who in the world are you? Where did you come from?
"There's indeed no exit, but … now that we're safe, we can dig a way out. However, it'll take a few days!"
Knowing that the other party really dared to tame him, the heart dared not say anything else.
"Dig a way out? That's right. Have your puppets hurry up then! "
Zhang Xuan said with a wave of his hand.
Even though they were underground, since he had been able to dig out such a massive underground chamber back then, it was not too difficult for him to dig a way out.
In any case, he had so many puppets with him, so there was no need for him to do it personally.
"Yes!"
The heart replied. Through some unknown means, it said those words, and the puppets immediately began digging.
These were all Saint realm puppets, so it was not too difficult for them to dig a passageway that a single person could pass through. It was just that the underground chamber had just collapsed, so it was easy for it to collapse a second time.
While the other party was busy digging a passageway, Zhang Xuan continued waiting here. In any case, he was not in a hurry.
He lowered his head to look at the book once more.
"Alright, I'll ask you some questions, and you'll have to answer them truthfully!"
"Yes!"
The heart replied.
"Since you were from the same era as Kong Shi, and you even crossed blows with him, have you heard of his Innate Fetal Poison?"
Zhang Xuan asked.
Through the Library of Heaven's Path, he knew that the other party was speaking the truth. This fellow was indeed from the same era as Kong Shi. Since that was the case, there was a good chance that he knew about the Innate Fetal Poison.
"Innate Fetal Poison? I don't know … I was enemies with Kong Shi. The first time I met him, he was already very powerful … "the heart replied.
The heart replied.
Back then, the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe ruled over mankind, but Kong Shi suddenly rose up from nowhere. Despite his young age, he possessed extraordinary strength, and he managed to reunite mankind and defeat them.
They didn't know much about this pinnacle powerhouse of the Human Race.
"You don't know? Are you lying to me? "
Zhang Xuan widened his eyes in disbelief.
"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare … AH!"
The heart hurriedly explained. However, before it could finish its words, it saw the other party's finger flicking toward it once more.
Peng peng peng peng!
After flipping several times in the Book of Heaven's Path, as if struck by lightning, the heart convulsed uncontrollably, and white foam spewed from its mouth.
"Brat, how dare you lie to me? Do you believe that I won't kill you within minutes?"
Zhang Xuan.
"Yes!"
The heart spasmed uncontrollably as tears flowed down its cheeks.
I'm really a Vicious, a person who dominated the ancient era, a person whom even Kong Shi feared …
Please believe in me!
