To Huangfu Daozi, the years since he had been beheaded were simply indescribable torture.
A person without a body was a powerful mental oppression, especially when he didn't know if he could live or how long he could live. Moreover, he had experienced being swallowed by sharks, turtles, and all sorts of strange sea creatures. He had also been used as a meteor hammer countless times. What was even more terrifying was that he had been thrown into a storage bag and stayed there for several years.
Under the protection of the Lotus Bao, his divine sense was constantly awake. In other words, he was actually unable to fall asleep. Even every time Fang Xing pulled him out, he only closed his eyes and forced himself to meditate because it was too painful to keep his eyes open. He only woke up after being slapped twice because he hadn't returned to his senses … If he could really fall asleep, then he wouldn't be awakened by slaps.
For so many years, he had been suffering, feeling the passing of every second.
Previously, Fang Xing had used him to fish for sea turtles, used him as a meteor hammer, or interrogated him about techniques. In any case, he had at least interacted with him.
But in the time that followed, this little demon seemed to have forgotten him and never saw him again.
Huangfu Daozi was even horrified to think that he would stay in that storage bag for eternity …
Because of this, he had really reached the brink of a mental breakdown.
He had already secretly prayed countless times. As long as Fang Xing was willing to let him go, even if he had to really kill him, it would be fine.
He was willing to do anything in order to be free!
However, after being separated for almost three years, he finally met Fang Xing again, yet he didn't even have the time to completely reveal his bottom line before he heard Fang Xing apologize to him, and then he said, "You can be considered to be extraordinary to be able to endure for so long. Whether you want to be free or not will depend on this time. If you're able to help me with this matter, then it's not impossible for me to let you be free!"
As he spoke, he tied the Yin Hell Chain into his hair bun and called out, "Go …"
"Senior … Young Master … Big Brother … Listen to me first …"
Huangfu Daozi kept releasing his Spiritual Force for fear that Fang Xing would toss him into some corner again and make him wait for a few years.
"I really can't endure it anymore. Please be kind and help me free myself …"
"Of course, I'm not saying that I have to seek death. Can you find someone to help me take over his body? Anyone will do … "
"I don't want to be a member of the Huangfu Clan anymore. Even if you beat me to death, I won't be your enemy anymore …"
"As long as you can give me a new body, I will be your servant forever …"
"Big Brother, if you really don't want to, then just kill me. Just crush my head, it won't take much effort …"
There was only Fang Xing in Huangfu Daozi's eyes, and he used his divine sense to transmit his thoughts to Fang Xing. However, in his eyes, he saw Fang Xing's gaze becoming more and more astonished and delighted. Huangfu Daozi even thought that his words had moved Fang Xing, so he spoke with even more vigor until Fang Xing pulled on the iron chain and pulled him back. Then, Fang Xing excitedly held onto Huangfu Daozi's head and shouted, "It really is effective!"
"What's the use?"
Huangfu Daozi still hadn't recovered from his shock.
On the other hand, Fang Xing's eyes glowed with excitement. At long last, I didn't waste my time for nothing, and I actually really found a method to resist the Primordial Death Qi.
The Lotus Treasure!
The treasure that protected the Divine Sense within Huangfu Daozi's head was really the only method to resist the Primordial Death Qi.
Actually, it was obvious. Even though the Primordial Death Qi was profound, difficult to understand, and extraordinarily terrifying. After it enveloped, it would annihilate all living beings, yet its characteristic was that it wouldn't destroy the bodies of living beings, and it would only annihilate the souls of all living beings. On the other hand, the Lotus Treasure was an extremely miraculous treasure that protected the Divine Sense from being destroyed. Huangfu Daozi's head had been severed for so long, yet his Divine Sense was still present, and it was obvious how extraordinary it was.
Everything in the world reinforced and countered each other, and this Lotus Treasure could be considered to be a treasure that countered the Primordial Death Qi.
Fang Xing who noticed this restrained the arrogant words in his heart and said to Huangfu Daozi with a gloomy expression, "I want your Lotus Treasure!"
Huangfu Daozi said, "Big Brother … I …"
Fang Xing said, "It's impossible to let you go, but if I have the chance, I can find a body for you!"
Huangfu Daozi's gaze flickered a few times, and he spoke with great difficulty. "This matter, isn't it …"
Fang Xing said, "If you dare to bargain, then do you believe me when I say I'll seal you in a cesspool for a few tens of thousands of years?"
Huangfu Daozi was greatly shocked, and various thoughts flickered indeterminately in his eyes because he knew that Fang Xing was capable of doing it.
Fang Xing suddenly started laughing and said, "Looks like you're in a very difficult position. Why don't you consider it properly and talk about it in a few years?"
As he spoke, he acted as if he was going to place Huangfu Daozi back into the storage pouch, and this action terrified Huangfu Daozi badly. How could he know how urgent Fang Xing was for the Lotus Treasure? He really thought that he would have to suffer a few more years of days of despair that were without daylight, and he was terrified to the point he almost started crying. His divine sense fluctuated like tidewater, and he practically shouted anxiously. "I agree … I agree …"
Fang Xing chuckled and became complacent as he said, "Then you can tell me how to obtain the Lotus Treasure."
Time was the best punishment. At that time, Fang Xing had racked his brains to ask for the Lotus Treasure, yet Huangfu Daozi firmly refused. However, the torment of being in the storage pouch for almost three years that was lonely and difficult to understand made him obediently hand over the Lotus Treasure because of a single promise from Fang Xing. Of course, the Lotus Treasure was an extraordinary treasure that was indescribably miraculous, yet it wasn't something that could be given away with just a few words, and it required a rather complicated ceremony.
Fang Xing prepared for three days and even asked a Golden Core Realm servant that was skilled in talismans to inscribe the formation, and he discussed the steps with Huangfu Daozi before he was prepared to truly accept the Lotus Treasure. This was divided into a few stages. The first stage was to use the spirit medicine soup to hang on to Huangfu Daozi's life, so that Huangfu Daozi's divine sense wouldn't immediately disperse and vanish after a few breaths of time after he handed over the Lotus Treasure.
The second stage was to receive Huangfu Daozi's divine sense, his soul, into Fang Xing's sea of consciousness.
This stage was actually the most difficult, and it was also the reason why Huangfu Daozi had always been unwilling to let go.
He didn't believe that Fang Xing would dare to do this, because the sea of consciousness was the most important place for a cultivator. Practically no one would allow other things with intelligence to enter their sea of consciousness, lest they pose a threat to their True Spirit. Regarding this, Fang Xing didn't take it seriously at all, and he couldn't be bothered to tell him that a demon lord had lived in his sea of consciousness for several years, and was still in a deep slumber until now …
The third stage was to accept the Lotus Treasure.
Through the ancient mantra and divine sense, the Lotus Treasure would be drawn into the sea of consciousness, fusing with the soul, and firmly guarding the True Spirit.
When all of this was done, Fang Xing would inherit the Lotus Treasure, and his soul would be firm, rarely seen in the world.
The process in the middle had to be incomparably precise, and not a single mistake could be made.
If any part was wrong, then it could possibly cause two consequences.
The first was that Huangfu Daozi's soul would dissipate.
The second was that the Lotus Treasure would go out of control and escape into the void.
Fang Xing didn't care much about the first consequence, but he couldn't bear to part with the second one.
Therefore, he also became serious, which was rare for him. Except for the part of inscribing the talisman array, which was done by an old Gold Core servant of the Heaven Resentment Clan who was proficient in talismans, he personally arranged the other parts. This seriousness was only seen when he was cultivating the Yin Yang Grindstone. Finally, when the seventh day arrived, he finished all the preparations and officially began the ceremony of drawing the Lotus Treasure into his body.
"Big … Big Brother … You … Don't trick me …"
The moment before Huangfu Daozi gave up on the Lotus Treasure, he had a mournful look on his face as he implored Fang Xing with his divine sense.
"Don't worry, I never trick people …"
Fang Xing was very serious, and he told Huangfu Daozi not to worry with a sincere look.
"Big … Big Brother … I think I need to explain to you … I actually didn't want to do that …"
Huangfu Daozi was still a little worried, and his divine sense was intermittent as he talked non-stop.
"Explain my ass. Even if you killed Old Man Tie, I don't plan on letting you off. Even if I help you take over my body in the future, you will have to be my servant for the rest of your life. Moreover, you will be the kind of servant that will never be able to free yourself. I will only set you free when I feel that you have atoned for your sins. As for your Huangfu Clan, hmph, I have never planned on giving you up from the beginning.
Please do as you wish! "Fang Xing spoke resolutely and mercilessly, but when Huangfu Daozi heard this, he actually felt slightly relieved.
He didn't say anything nice, but it seemed to be the truth!
He closed his eyes slightly and forced his mind to calm down. Then, his lips parted slightly, and he chanted a string of silent incantations.
In between Huangfu Daozi's eyebrows, there was a lotus-shaped rune that flickered with a mysterious light. And after he chanted this string of incantations, that lotus-shaped rune actually became brighter and brighter. A ball of white light with a hint of scarlet shone, and it was even somewhat dazzling. After a few breaths of time, this ball of light became extremely bright, and then it slowly floated out from between his eyebrows …
"This is the main body of the lotus treasure?"
Fang Xing held his breath, and his eyes widened as he looked at the ball of light. Within the light floated a lotus the size of an infant's fist. It was sparkling and translucent like glass, and its entire body was transparent. However, there were faint red blood lines interweaving on the petals of the lotus, and it emitted a rich spiritual nature. At first glance, it seemed like it had a life of its own, and it also seemed like a fairy. It was indescribably beautiful.
"Lotus Treasure Seal, from the ancient Buddhist sect, an indestructible treasure of the divine soul …"
The Yin Yang Fiendgod Mirror revolved, and strands of divine sense circulated in the depths of Fang Xing's heart, allowing Fang Xing to understand the origins and roots of this lotus treasure.
"It's actually the ancient Buddhist sect that has already been destroyed …"
A trace of astonishment flashed in the depths of Fang Xing's heart, but he didn't think too much about it. Time was of the essence, and he had no time to be distracted. He let out a light sigh, and then spread open the fingers of his right hand, covering the top of Huangfu Daozi's head. Spiritual energy flowed out, and with the active cooperation of Huangfu Daozi's divine soul, a ball of light was drawn out. This was Huangfu Daozi's divine soul. Then, Fang Xing drew him into his sea of knowledge, and no longer paid any attention to him.
His eyes were fixed on the lotus treasure, and he softly chanted the name that he had just identified. "Come, Lotus Treasure Seal!"
He slowly chanted an incantation, and the lotus treasure was guided, slowly flying towards the space between his eyebrows.
