At the end of the Crystal Palace, the mummy sat in a lotus position. Its demonic light illuminated the world.
Its red eyes were strange and eerie, similar to the eyes of a demon. It made Ling Xian feel negative emotions and made him want to start a massacre and kill all living beings!
Even if he chanted the Incantation of a Calm Heart and called out to the Technique of Three Qing, he couldn't calm down.
The mummy's eyes were far too eerie and far too powerful. They contained the evil energy that could make living beings fall into the demonic path and make them only know how to kill.
"I cannot sit here and wait for death!"
Ling Xian knew that if this continues, he will not be able to defend against it. When that happens, he will become a monster that only knows how to kill.
Therefore, he used his determination to suppress his negative emotions and temporarily maintained his consciousness.
Then, Ling Xian chanted the Incantation of a Calm Heart and displayed the Technique of Three Qing in an attempt to get rid of the evil energy.
The result, however, was like a rock sinking into the ocean.
"What is going on? It is so lifeless, why can it move? Why is it so evil?"
Ling Xian's brows were tightly locked together. Other than confusion, he was also very worried.
If he cannot defend against the evil energy, it means he will fall into the demonic path sooner or later and lose himself.
"I have to find the reason. Only then can I get out of this!"
Ling Xian's gaze turned determined. Though his eyes were completely red, his heart was firm and he could maintain his consciousness.
Therefore, he guided the Qi of the Qi into his body and called out to the Battle Immortal Bone in an attempt to destroy the mummy.
Sadly, not even a small mark was left.
The mummy had the body of a God. With his current capabilities, how could he destroy it?
"It seems like I am destined to become a monster that only knows how to kill."
Ling Xian softly sighed. He didn't think he would encounter such an eerie situation.
Just as he sighed, the mummy suddenly began to shake. Then, the red in its eyes disappeared and was replaced by the vastness of the galaxy.
Immediately, all the negative emotions disappeared and Ling Xian sighed in relief.
However, he did not relax.
Because the mummy's eyes were exclaiming. It was obvious that it had gained consciousness.
This made Ling Xian frown and he asked in a low voice, "Just who are you?"
"I am no longer human. I am merely a remnant of a soul that refuses to dissipate."
The mummy spoke in a low and hoarse voice.
"Remnant of a soul …"
Ling Xian's gaze froze, "You are the God that once ruled the continent?"
"It's me."
The corpse smiled faintly and said, "I'm sorry. I almost made you fall into the demonic path and lose yourself."
"What's going on?"
Ling Xian's brows were tightly locked together. Just a moment ago, he was bewitching and strange. Now, his attitude was gentle. It was hard to understand. "It's a long story." The mummy sighed lightly.
"I have time and I have patience." Ling Xian grinned.
"This matter began when my lifespan was nearing its end."
"Everyone is afraid of death, and I am no exception."
"At that time, I knew that my time was coming, so I had the thought of living another life."
"For this unrealistic idea, I spent a lot of effort and searched the nine heavens. Finally, I found a way."
"In the end, I succeeded, but also failed."
"Although I managed to preserve a wisp of my remnant soul, it gave birth to evil thoughts."
"It is formed from the dark side of my personality. It only knows how to kill, and it can control this body."
The mummy's eyes were filled with nostalgia and helplessness.
"Evil thoughts …"
Ling Xian's brows were tightly locked together, "The obsession you speak of, you want to get rid of it?"
"That's right. Even though I am not a good person, I will not sit back and watch as the evil thoughts poison the world."
"Therefore, I used my last trick and sealed my physical body so that it cannot leave this place."
"However, my powers are limited. I can only seal it, I cannot destroy it."
The mummy sighed helplessly. Three chains of light appeared. One wrapped around his waist, and two around his arms.
The chain of light looked gentle, but it actually contained shocking power. Even the body of a Divine Spirit could not break it.
"No wonder I cannot leave the Crystal Palace."
Ling Xian's brows relaxed. He finally understood what happened.
"The evil thoughts are too strong. I am afraid my wish cannot be fulfilled."
The dried corpse sighed lightly, revealing a bit of unwillingness, as well as a bit of regret.
"No matter what, thank you. Or else I would've lost my sanity." Ling Xian paid his respect to the mummy.
"I was the one who caused this. I have the responsibility to save you."
The mummy grinned, "You are not bad. To be able to last so long under the gaze of the evil thoughts. If it was anyone else, they wouldn't even be able to last a single breath."
Hearing this, Ling Xian smiled but didn't say anything.
In terms of Daoist Heart alone, he had already surpassed most people. Even cultivators of the ninth level might not be able to compare to him.
"Do me a favor." The mummy sighed.
"Help you …" Ling Xian bitterly smiled.
"That's right. I cannot destroy the evil thoughts, so I have to ask for help." The mummy nodded.
"But you are looking for the wrong person."
Ling Xian shook his head. He was merely at the beginning stage of the extraordinary realm. Even if he could fight two levels above him, he couldn't move the mummy.
It was an undefeatable God. Only those who achieved Taoism can destroy it!
"I know you can't right now, but that doesn't mean you won't be able to in the future."
The mummy looked at Ling Xian. "When you achieve Taoism, I hope you can come here and kill the evil thoughts."
"Do you think it is that easy to achieve Taoism? Not to mention today, even thirty thousand years ago, it was as difficult as ascending to the heavens. "
Ling Xian sighed, "Unless you give me the Origin of God. Or else it will be very difficult for me to kill the evil thoughts."
"When I passed away, I did leave behind the Origin of God. However, it has long been consumed by the evil thoughts." The mummy sighed helplessly.
Ling Xian sighed as well. He was a little disappointed, but not much.
Unless he had no other choice, he wouldn't consume the Origin of God. After all, that meant he would never be able to achieve immortality.
"I don't have the Origin of God, but I can give you the blood of the God."
The mummy faintly smiled and said, "You should know that I have a King Physique. If you refine my true blood, you might become a King Physique."
Hearing this, Ling Xian's eyes brightened, "How many drops can you give me?"
"Three drops. It's not that I don't want to give you more, it's that I only have three drops left." The mummy sighed.
"That's enough."
Ling Xian smiled. His physique was special. He only needed one drop of blood to grow the Emperor Body.
He would give one drop to Empress Gan's son to complete the deal. He would keep one drop for emergencies.
"Then you can agree to this deal, right?" The mummy revealed a smile.
"Of course."
Ling Xian softly smiled, "However, I cannot promise that I will achieve Taoism."
"Can you promise that you will keep your promise?" The mummy asked.
"Of course." Ling Xian said in a low voice.
"That's enough."
"After all these years, you are the one with the highest chance of achieving Taoism. I can only place all my hopes on you."
"I hope you can help me free myself."
The mummy looked at Ling Xian deeply. Then, its eyes flickered and three drops of pure white blood appeared. Though they had no heavenly energy, they were swirling with energy that was mysterious and unpredictable.
It was the source of the Emperor Body's blood.
"In the future, when I achieve Taoism, I will destroy the evil thoughts and free you."
Ling Xian's words were loud and powerful.
