Ye Qiu approached the gate and found that there was no black fire there, so he put away the Reincarnation Cave.
Immediately, Ye Qiu looked at the ancient gate, which was covered in vicissitudes, and peeked inside, trying to see what was inside.
But as soon as Ye Qiu peeked out, a pale hand suddenly reached out and grabbed Ye Qiu's neck.
Before Ye Qiu could react, he was pulled into the Divine Ruins.
"Such a vibrant body, just what I wanted."
The voice was hoarse, with somewhat strange syllables.
Ye Qiu looked closely and realized that the person who had dragged him in was an old man who was skin and bones.
Calling him a person doesn't quite capture his image anymore.
It was more like a skeleton covered in human skin, with only a few sparse hairs left, sunken eye sockets, and an old appearance. It emitted a nauseating stench, like rotting pork.
Before Ye Qiu could react, a terrifying dark light erupted from between his eyebrows and connected with Ye Qiu's brow.
In an instant, Ye Qiu felt his primordial spirit being pulled outward, a pain that truly pierced his soul.
"What the hell are you trying to do?"
Ye Qiu was furious.
"Possession".
The emaciated old monster, whose age was unknown, emitted eerie sounds from its throat.
Ye Qiu clenched his fists, desperately trying to break free.
But the old monster's body was like a black hole, firmly fixing Ye Qiu in place, and Ye Qiu was completely unable to break free.
"Tsk tsk, kid, give up struggling. Unite with me, and I will make your body the strongest in heaven and earth, sweeping across all realms."
Even though you won't see that day come, everyone will think it's you, so you won't lose out.
The old monster let out a sinister laugh, like a vengeful ghost, which was extremely eerie.
"Go to hell."
Ye Qiu was extremely irritable at this moment.
Being chased was bad enough, but after escaping into the forbidden area and finally getting rid of the mysterious black fire, he encountered an old monster who wanted to possess him.
Ye Qiu, growing angrier the more he thought about it, endured the excruciating pain in his soul and forcefully raised his hand to grab the old monster by the neck.
The old monster was still chuckling: "Hehehe, what? You think you can strangle me? Come on, put your strength into it and strangle me."
I'll kill you.
Ye Qiu suddenly exerted his strength.
But he soon discovered that the old man's bones were incredibly hard, as if they were cast from celestial metal, and were indestructible.
"Haha, you're helpless now, aren't you? Kid, just surrender obediently and don't struggle."
The old monster laughed maniacally.
Ye Qiu was furious. Seeing that his primordial spirit was about to be sucked out, Ye Qiu was extremely anxious.
Staring at the emaciated old monster, Ye Qiu suddenly asked, "Do you want to possess me because you're too old and need a young body?"
"Is that even a question?" the old monster said. "I am over three thousand years old and have been hiding in the forbidden area to escape the power of reincarnation. If you hadn't appeared, I'm afraid I wouldn't have lived much longer."
But Heaven has been kind to me, allowing you, brat, to break in. Tsk, your body is no ordinary thing; it should be able to give me another life.”
"So you're afraid of the power of reincarnation."
Ye Qiu smiled.
"What's the meaning?"
The old monster had a bad feeling.
Ye Qiu also sneered, exerting all his strength to unleash the Samsara Dharma Cave.
As the power of reincarnation descended, it instantly engulfed Ye Qiu and the old monster.
The old monster's expression changed, his eyes filled with fear. Already aged and frail, his already dwindling flesh shrank once more after being engulfed by the power of reincarnation.
"The Law of Reincarnation? You actually know the Law of Reincarnation?"
The old monster let out a strange cry, incredulous.
"Go to hell."
With the pressure greatly reduced, Ye Qiu frantically activated the Reincarnation Technique to attack the old monster.
The old monster trembled violently.
However, the old monster quickly regained his composure, casually raised his hand, and black runes surged, transforming into a protective shield that instantly blocked Ye Qiu's Reincarnation Technique.
"You're quite clever, kid. You know I'm afraid of the Reincarnation Technique, but unfortunately, you're too weak. Your Reincarnation Technique can't really hurt me."
The old monster is trying to possess Ye Qiu once again.
Ye Qiu gritted his teeth. This old man was too terrifying. Even though he was old and frail, with his blood and energy depleted, he was still unfathomable.
Are we just going to give up like this?
Are you just going to accept your fate like this?
No, Ye Qiu was not willing to accept it!
He resisted frantically, letting out low growls.
The old monster was also grinning sinisterly, eager to successfully possess the body.
Just as the two were locked in a stalemate, a mysterious figure suddenly emerged step by step from Ye Qiu's Reincarnation Cave.
The mysterious figure seemed to have truly crossed the cycle of reincarnation from a distant era. Its true appearance was unclear, yet it appeared to be an invincible supreme being. It descended step by step and gently struck the old monster with a palm.
The old monster looked up, his expression instantly changing to one of utter disbelief, as if he'd seen a ghost: "How...how could anyone truly transcend reincarnation..."
Bang.
Before the old monster could finish speaking, the figure that emerged from the Samsara Cave slapped his skull, shattering his skull and causing him to die.
After killing the old monster, the mysterious figure seemed to glance at Ye Qiu, opened its mouth, and said something.
Ye Qiu tried his best to hear clearly, but he couldn't hear anything at all.
The next second, the mysterious figure returned to the Reincarnation Cave and remained motionless.
This mysterious figure is the Dao Spirit within Ye Qiu's Reincarnation Cave.
After Ye Qiu created the Reincarnation Cave, the Dao Spirit manifested on its own, and he did not cultivate it.
At that time, Ye Qiu felt that the Reincarnation Dao Spirit was somewhat strange.
Unexpectedly, at this critical moment when his life was in danger, it walked out of the cave on its own and saved his life.
In addition, Ye Qiu thought that the Reincarnation Dao Spirit seemed to have said something, but Ye Qiu couldn't hear it at all and couldn't deduce it from the lip movements.
Ye Qiu secretly concluded that his own Reincarnation Dao Spirit contained an immense mystery.
Regardless, the Spirit of Reincarnation ultimately saved him, and was even a part of him, so Ye Qiu had no reason to be wary of it.
The feeling of escaping death at this moment finally made Ye Qiu breathe a sigh of relief.
"Old man, you really deserve to die."
Ye Qiu, still indignant, kicked the old monster's corpse twice more.
However, Ye Qiu was stunned when he glanced up at it by chance.
Inside this divine ruin were actually hundreds of large tombs.
hiss.
Ye Qiu gasped, not daring to approach easily.
Because he was terrified by the old monster, Ye Qiu worried that similar old monsters might appear again.
Therefore, Ye Qiu immediately squatted down and searched the old monster's body. And he actually found something.
The old monster had a parchment scroll hidden in his arms.
Upon opening the parchment, Ye Qiu immediately saw a line of large characters: Tomb Guardian Contract.
The following content is probably about voluntarily guarding the grave until one's lifespan ends...
"So he was just a gravedigger." Ye Qiu's expression turned solemn.
If even a tomb keeper is this terrifying, one can imagine that the owners of the hundreds of large tombs inside must have been extraordinary individuals.
Driven by curiosity, Ye Qiu finally couldn't resist and walked step by step towards the large tomb complex...
