When Zhen Yuanzi took Hongyun's Soul-dispersing Gourd from River Styx, his expression changed greatly after he took a look at the inside of the gourd. Then, he returned to his Taoist field without hesitation and sealed the whole Taoist field with a formation. What could make Zhen Yuanzi act like this?
In the Fifth Manor, Zhen Yuanzi returned to his meditation room for closed-door practice and sealed the room with a restriction formation. Then, he took out the Soul-dispersing Red Gourd and said warily, "Daoist Friend River Styx, please come out!" "River Styx, River Styx is hiding in Hongyun's red gourd? Why is he hiding in Hongyun's red gourd?"
With a flash of green light, a Daoist in a green robe appeared in the meditation room. It was none other than the Good Corpse of River Styx, Qiankun Taoist. Qiankun Taoist smiled and said, "The Poor Way is the Good Corpse of the Ancestor of River Styx, Qiankun Taoist. Nice to meet you, Zhen Yuanzi, my Daoist Friend. You don't have to be so alert. If I want to kill someone, no one in the Great Desolation can stop me." After that, his Qi Power flashed and disappeared.
Although Qiankun Taoist's Qi Power came and went quickly, Zhen Yuanzi was shocked. The peak of Quasi-saint! He did not expect that not only was River Styx's Deity powerful, but his Good Corpse was also at the peak of Quasi-saint. No one would believe it if he told others.
In the Great Desolation, Corpse Severing was only used to increase the cultivation of the main body. However, the strength of the Corpse Severing would generally not surpass the main body. Moreover, once the Three Corpses were destroyed, although they could be restored, they would have to pay a huge price and energy, which would affect the cultivation of the main body. However, if the destroyed Three Corpses were not restored, the cultivation of the main body would also be unstable. Therefore, they would generally not use the Three Corpses to fight against people of the same level.
However, the Good Corpse of River Styx, Qiankun Taoist, was different. His cultivation was on par with the main body, and Zhen Yuanzi also felt the existence of the Power of Law in the Qi Power that flashed by just now. Since Qiankun Taoist was named Qiankun, it was very likely that he was proficient in the Law of Qiankun, which was used by the Purple Qi of Hongmeng and the Quasi-saint of the rogue cultivators when River Styx was staring at them.
If the Good Corpse of River Styx, Qiankun Taoist, had such strength, then how powerful would the Evil Corpse be? River Styx hid his strength so well that even if he wanted to kill Zhen Yuanzi, he would not have done so. He came to Wu Zhuang Taoist Temple with the help of the red gourd and did not let Zhen Yuanzi find out that he was hiding in the red gourd. Moreover, when Zhen Yuanzi was spying on the red gourd, what did Qiankun Taoist Temple mean?
After thinking it through, Zhen Yuanzi put away the vigilance on his face and asked, "Qiankun Daoist Friend, what did you mean by 'Hongyun is not dead, return to the Fifth Manor as soon as possible'? Could it be … "Zhen Yuanzi heard Qiankun Taoist Temple say that Hongyun was not dead, so he hurried back to Wu Zhuang Taoist Temple in a hurry.
Qiankun Taoist Temple smiled and waved his sleeves. A figure was lying on the cloud bed. Zhen Yuanzi saw it and exclaimed, "Hongyun! I didn't expect that Hongyun's Daoist Friend's soul was not scattered. Zhen Yuanzi thanks you for saving my life!"
Qiankun Taoist Temple waved his hand and said, "You don't have to thank me. Although Hongyun blew herself up, she left a remnant soul in the Soul-dispersing Gourd. I just did her a favor. But now Hongyun's Daoist Friend's remnant soul is very weak, so I used a little Sanguang Holy Water to nourish it. Now it has stabilized, but if she wants to fully recover, she still needs time to nourish it slowly."
At this time, Hongyun's soul was dim. Once it was attacked, it was likely to dissipate immediately. Zhen Yuanzi said with a little excitement, "I still have to thank Qiankun Daoist Friend and River Styx Daoist Friend for your help. Otherwise, if the Soul-dispersing Gourd fell into the hands of Kunpeng, I'm afraid Hongyun's remnant soul would have been destroyed."
Qiankun Taoist Temple said, "I heard that there is a Primordial Spiritual Root in the Daoist Friend's mansion, called the Fruit of Life. It is one of the five Primordial Spiritual Roots, the Wood of the East. You can put Hongyun's Daoist Friend in it to nourish and recover. In this way, Hongyun's soul will recover as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi said, "Daoist Friend, thank you for your reminder. The Poor Way will go right away. Daoist Friend, please wait for a moment." After that, he swept up Hongyun's remnant soul and disappeared without a trace. Not long after, Zhen Yuanzi came back with a plate of strange fruits in the shape of babies. They were the ginseng fruits, and there were as many as nine of them.
Zhen Yuanzi brought the ginseng fruits to Qiankun Taoist Temple and thanked him, "These are the ginseng fruits from the Fruit of Life. Daoist Friend, take them as the Poor Way's thanks to Daoist Friend for saving Hongyun's life." Although River Styx got the Purple Qi of Hongmeng, he got it from Kunpeng and saved Hongyun's life. Zhen Yuanzi was naturally very grateful.
Seeing this, Qiankun Taoist Temple said, "In that case, it would be impolite to refuse the Poor Way. I have heard of the famous ginseng fruit for a long time. Seeing it today, it is really extraordinary." Qiankun Taoist Temple did not refuse. He waved his sleeve and accepted it directly. After all, he did not come here today to taste the ginseng fruit.
Seeing that Qiankun Taoist Temple did not want to taste it, Zhen Yuanzi knew that River Styx must have something to tell him. Otherwise, he would not have asked Qiankun Taoist Temple to hide in the Ninety-Nine Soul-dispersing Gourd to avoid the eyes and ears of the people of the Great Desolation. River Styx must have something to tell him, but he could not do it openly, so he came up with this plan.
Zhen Yuanzi asked, "Qiankun Taoist Temple must have come here not just for Hongyun, right? River Styx must have something to tell his Daoist Friend, so he arranged for his Daoist Friend to hide in the Ninety-Nine Soul-dispersing Gourd. River Styx is indebted to Hongyun. Daoist Friend, please say it. As long as I, Zhen Yuanzi, am able to do it, I will not back down. "
Qiankun Taoist Temple smiled. Zhen Yuanzi was indeed a smart person. If it was only for Hongyun's remnant soul, River Styx would not have gone through so much trouble. "Daoist Friend, you have sharp eyes. I have a few things that I want to discuss with my Daoist Friend. That is why I came here."
Zhen Yuanzi heard this and asked, "What are they?" River Styx acted like this. What he wanted to talk about was probably not a small matter. Otherwise, he would not be so cautious. Qiankun Taoist Temple said, "First, the Poor Way wants to borrow the Book of Earth."
The Book of Earth? Zhen Yuanzi was puzzled. He was not afraid of Qiankun Taoist Temple robbing him, but this treasure was his companion Lingbao. Although it was a top-grade Lingbao, Zhen Yuanzi did not think too much about it. He took out the Book of Earth and handed it to Qiankun Taoist Temple.
After Qiankun Taoist Temple received the Book of Earth, he immediately began to comprehend it. At the same time, River Styx, who had returned to the Blood Sea, received Qiankun Taoist Temple's divine sense. Using the Law of the Soul, he began to comprehend the Book of Earth with Qiankun Taoist Temple.
The reason for this was because River Styx had some doubts. Among the Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Man, the Book of Heaven was the Investiture of the Gods. It was the Celestial Court's most precious treasure. The Book of Man was the Book of Life and Death. It was the most precious treasure of the Underworld. It controlled the life and death of all living things in the world. Those who had not entered the Quasi-saint realm were all listed in the Book of Life and Death.
What about the Book of Earth? It was one of the Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Man, just like the Investiture of the Gods and the Book of Life and Death. If these two books had such shocking power, how could the Book of Earth be any worse? This was why River Styx sent Qiankun Taoist Temple to explore the mysteries of the Book of Earth. If it was as he guessed, Zhen Yuanzi could become River Styx's ally.
River Styx and Qiankun Taoist Temple studied the mysteries of the Book of Earth together. Zhen Yuanzi did not stop them. Not long after, Qiankun Taoist Temple opened his eyes. He looked at the Book of Earth and smiled. He handed the Book of Earth back to Zhen Yuanzi and said, "Daoist Friend, this Book of Earth is really mysterious. Daoist Friend, you should study it carefully. Perhaps it contains your Daoist Friend's path of Dao Validation."
When Zhen Yuanzi heard this, his expression changed greatly. The Book of Earth had been in his possession for a long time. It was also his accompanying Lingbao. Although its defense was strong and it could mobilize the power of the veins of the earth, Zhen Yuanzi did not realize that it contained his path of Dao Validation. Qiankun Taoist Temple only studied it for a short while. Judging from his expression, he must have already seen a trace of its mysteries.
Zhen Yuanzi was just about to speak when Qiankun Taoist Temple said, "The Poor Way knows what Daoist Friend wants to ask. However, the mysteries of heaven cannot be revealed. Daoist Friend still needs to study his own Dao. The Poor Way does not say anything." When Zhen Yuanzi heard this, he calmed down. The Dao that he comprehended himself was the most suitable for him. What others said might not be his Dao.
Far away in the Blood Sea, River Styx's face was also full of smiles. It was just as he had guessed. This Book of Earth did indeed contain a shocking secret. It was not inferior to the Investiture of the Gods and the Book of Life and Death. If it was used properly, there would be another great power in the Great Desolation. It would not be inferior to the Celestial Court or the Underworld. However, there are always gains and losses. If this were to happen, Zhen Yuanzi would not be able to remain as a carefree immortal.
