Chapter 150
Beneath the abyss, nothing lives.
Ji Tang stretched his arms and legs and brought the remnant soul in his hand in front of him.
The black shadow no longer had the arrogance it had before. It was caught in Ji Tang's hand and turned into a phantom as Ji Tang shook it.
They wanted to kill Jitang's physical body.
The black shadow was also ready to accept Jitang's body.
Well, that’s a good idea—these two people started dreaming before they even entered the Nightmare Fragment.
Ji Tang regained control of his body while falling and pulled the black shadow out.
When she landed, she was unharmed, but the shadow was terrified.
Her body still felt the pain caused by the black lord activating the ice marrow. The pain made her tremble slightly. It was not pleasant to be controlled by others. She was in a bad mood and grabbed the black shadow and shook it hard several times.
The black shadow was shaken so much that he couldn't make a sound for a long time.
Ji Tang looked at him coldly, "You've been a disaster for thousands of years, I didn't expect you to be alive, Xue Mei."
The black shadow finally came to its senses. Its brain, which was filled with excitement and excitement, cooled down with each shaking. Finally, it could not bear it anymore and could only beg for mercy.
Ji Tang: "You know how to exploit my weakness to take over my body, so you must also know what the ice marrow of the extremely cold plant is. Tell me everything you know, and don't try to be cunning!"
Xue Mei is now just a remnant soul. He is extremely vulnerable in front of the black-clothed lord and Ji Tang, and cannot be offended.
It struggled out of Jitang's hand and led the way staggeringly, "Follow me."
Ji Tang looked at the black shadow from behind, and the image of Xue Mei with drooped shoulders and a look of resignation appeared in her mind. She narrowed her eyes and quickly followed.
Xue Mei wandered in the abyss, and the cold air continued to erode him.
It was protected by Ji Tang's nightmare aura many times before it entered an ice cave covered with ice thorns.
Ji Tang followed it all the way here. He used the power of his soul to explore the surrounding terrain clearly in advance and continuously completed the map of the nightmare abyss in his sea of consciousness.
The cold in the ice cave was even worse, and Xue Mei could hardly move.
Ji Tang disgustedly circled the nightmare aura around it, wrapping it up.
It caught its breath before continuing inside with Jitang.
The ice cave is filled with intricate passages of varying widths. The ice cones that cover the cave are pointing downwards, as if they could fall at any time and smash a hole in the head of anyone walking below.
Bone-piercing water drops fell on Ji Tang's head, but were blocked by the nightmare shield she held up. Although the drops were small, they were filled with cold energy, causing ripples the moment they landed on the shield.
The cold air spread outside the shield, trying to find a gap to continue invading, but was eventually swallowed up and dissipated by the energy of nightmare.
After walking through more than twenty cold passages, Jitang no longer saw the cramped darkness in front of him, but a relatively large circular space.
The ice thorns crawled in through the tiny cracks in the ice cave, using it as a hotbed for growth.
They covered the surrounding stone walls tightly, and the branches crawled from the moist ground to the middle of the open space, supporting each other to grow upward and gather together to form a thorn cage.
Xue Mei: "There grows the only extremely cold plant in the netherworld. The ice marrow in your body was taken from its bulb."
Ji Tang didn't step forward immediately. "You told me so easily?"
The black shadow rose and fell, "My remaining soul is in your hands, I dare not act rashly."
Xue Mei is very flexible.
In the past, he always called her "niece" and acted like an elder. He was merciless when he put her in solitary confinement and never held back when he tortured her.
Now that its identity has changed, it has become a remnant soul that has to act according to Ji Tang's mood. Not to mention speaking humbly, even its shadow can make Ji Tang feel its cautiousness.
Jitang said "Oh" and approached the thorn cage.
The spikes of the ice thorns were hard and sharp. As soon as she approached, the spikes moved towards her as if they had consciousness.
Ji Tang asked, "You said there's only one extremely cold plant in the lower realm. Does that mean it's a fairy plant from the heavens?"
The shadow followed her, rising and falling a little more, "That's right."
It didn't notice that its tone was getting faster. "The ice marrow in the bulb is poisonous, but the pistil is the antidote. As long as you take the pistil, your horny will be freed!"
"That's great," Ji Tang grabbed the black shadow in his hand and said to the stuck black shadow, "The thorns are too densely entangled, I can't reach it. I think your body shape is good, you can be rounded or flattened, just enough to squeeze through the gaps in the ice thorns. Bring me the extremely cold plant."
Only then did Xue Mei realize that he had been too impatient and Ji Tang had seen through him.
The remnant soul trembled unconsciously. If it were in human form, it would definitely be sweating all over its forehead.
It: "I can't get in... The residual soul is too fragile. I will be frozen to pieces by the cold air of the extremely cold plant before I even get in!"
Ji Tang smiled with a pleasant expression, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you with my nightmare energy."
As she spoke, she was about to stuff Xue Mei's remaining soul in. When she reached the ice spike, Xue Mei could no longer hold back and screamed in disbelief, "Spare my life! Spare my life!"
Ji Tang brought the remnant soul in front of him again and asked, "Tell the truth?"
Although the black shadow was protected by the nightmare aura, it had become visibly lighter when it came back after getting close to the ice spikes for a while.
Ji Tang glanced at it casually, feeling the faster vibrations coming from his fingertips, and then said, "There is only one extremely cold plant in the lower realm, and it is related to the black-clothed lord's thousand-year plan. Can you let me get it so easily?"
"Even the Lord in Black could only bring one extremely cold plant down to the lower realm. It seems this immortal plant is very precious in the immortal realm. Or perhaps it's due to the limitations of heaven, so the Lord in Black can only bring back a limited amount of things?"
“Is it limited in quantity, or limited in variety?”
While Ji Tang was guessing, he carefully observed Xue Mei's reaction.
The thorn cage must have some mysteries. Not to mention whether the extremely cold plant is very precious in the fairy world, judging from Xue Mei's residual soul that is almost shaking into sieve chaff, the black-clothed lord is probably restricted by the laws of nature, and things from the fairy world cannot be brought to the world of cultivation so easily.
The black shadow looked like an eggplant hit by frost, the whole thing was soft and limp.
Ji Tang swung the eggplant in the air a few times, threatening: "Don't even think about plotting against me. Tell me what you know! Do you think I don't know you're stalling for time? Do you want to wait for the Black Lord to deal with me?"
She said, "I can't do anything to him by myself, but he can't kill me." Ji Tang's eyes curved into crescents, "But I can kill you!"
A violent explosion came from Xue Mei's remaining soul.
Evil Crescent! She is simply a devil!
Xue Mei hesitated, "There is a magical weapon in the thorn cage called the Xuanguang Wanzhu Clam. It is an immortal weapon that can attack and defend, and it also has the domineering ability to control souls."
"The ice spike that was directed at you just now was controlled by it. If you are pierced by the spike, the Xuanguang Wanzhu Osmun will release a Xuanguang Pearl and follow the wound to seize control of your soul."
Ji Tang: "Is this the reason why you are in such a miserable state?"
Xue Mei: “…”
What else doesn't Jitang understand?
Ji Tang: "Is the Xuanguang Pearl the size of a pearl and emits a cool breeze?"
Xue Mei noticed that Ji Tang's grip on him had become lighter, and he didn't dare to run. He could only shrink his shadow and try to stay as far away from Ji Tang's fingertips as possible.
It said, "Yes, my soul was once controlled by it."
Ji Tang understood that the pearl fairy treasure taken out from his adoptive mother's body was the Xuanguang Pearl from the Xuanguang Wanzhu Clam.
She turned to look at the thorn cage, "What's the weakness of this magic weapon?"
Xue Mei told the truth, "I don't know."
Ji Tang turned his gaze back and said, "Is there anything else you know that I don't know? You don't want me to use it to fill the gaps between thorns, do you?"
Xue Mei accepted his fate and said, "This immortal weapon is connected to the Black Lord's soul. If you touch the immortal treasure, the Black Lord will immediately notice it."
"He can teleport here instantly through the connection with the immortal weapon. You can't get the extremely cold plant at all, and even if you did, you can't escape."
Ji Tang frowned and stepped forward.
The icy spikes of the ice thorns flashed with cold light, each one pointing at her. As long as she moved, these spikes would attack her.
Ji Tang didn't take the ice thorns seriously. It was easy to break the thorn cage, but the problem was how to cut off the connection between the Xuanguang Wanzhu Clam and the Lord in Black.
Of course, she could take the extremely cold plant and leave directly, but the Lord in Black would teleport over immediately. If they fought, she would not gain any advantage at all. As long as the Lord in Black activated the ice marrow poison in her body, she would be at his mercy.
But if she didn't take the extremely cold plant, the ice marrow in her body would explode under the control of the black-clothed lord.
No matter how you think about it, it's a dead end.
Xue Mei: "It's useless. The Lord in Black is planning every step carefully. He has been planning the Jiuzhou Grand Formation for a long time, and you are the key to the formation. How could he let you find a way to break it?"
Ji Tang seemed to be thinking, "It's not that there is no way."
Xue Mei didn't listen to what she said at all. "Don't waste your time. Instead of doing this, it's better to follow the Lord in Black and find a way to survive."
Ji Tang looked at it with a dazed look, as if smiling, "Are you trying to persuade me to save my life?"
How is that possible?
It was afraid that Jitang would kill himself and it would also be affected.
Both of them knew it well.
Xue Mei looked around and said something else, "Knowing that this is a dead end, struggling will only..."
While he was speaking, Jitang had decisively destroyed the thorn cage.
Xue Mei's remaining soul was shocked, "You are crazy!"
Jitang finally saw this magical weapon.
She exclaimed, "It's worthy of being a magical weapon!"
The Xuanguang Wanzhu Mussel radiates a lustrous luster, even its diffused light imbued with an ethereal aura. Palm-sized, its upper and lower shells slightly closed, it holds dozens of bright, round pearls, emanating a refreshing coolness that infuses the heart with a delightful, yet this magical weapon is a potent weapon.
Xue Mei had no time to look at the magic weapon. He only felt that the god of death had opened his arms to him again.
"Is this the time to talk about this?"
The clam shell was about to open, and it was suddenly frightened and trembled with fear.
Ji Tang separated a part of his soul.
This spiritual power is completely different from the spiritual power she used before.
The milky white soul was like a substance, and the energy it emitted temporarily overshadowed the immortal aura of the Xuanguang Wanzhu Clam!
Xue Mei was shocked. "You actually separated your primordial spirit from your body! You! You want to use your primordial spirit to carry the Xuanguang Wanzhu Clam!"
He is right.
The Lord in Black is subject to the limitations of Heaven, and the immortal weapon he brought with him must also be subject to the limitations of Heaven.
As Ji Tang was in the Tribulation Crossing Stage and had suffered the Thunder Tribulation of Ascension, she had already touched the threshold of the Heavenly Dao. If she used her original spirit to carry the Xuanguang Wanzhu Clam, she could trap the immortal weapon without the Black-Clothed Lord knowing, and the Black-Clothed Lord would naturally not notice it.
Xue Mei was still screaming, "Crazy! What a lunatic!"
Although the soul body and the soul power belong to the same soul, they are completely different.
If the soul is likened to a shining heart, then the power of the soul is the light surrounding the heart, which can be mobilized and used by the owner and taken away at will.
Even if the light dims for some reason, the heart will create light again.
However, the soul's original body is different. The soul's original body is the heart itself. Separating the soul's original body is like cutting a piece of flesh from the heart.
Although the heart will not lose its vitality because a piece of flesh is cut out, it cannot be restored to its original state.
How does a scarred heart compare to an intact heart?
The damage to Jitang can be imagined.
Ji Tang thought Xue Mei was too noisy, so he waved his hand and fanned it away.
She held the separated soul body and approached the Xuanguang Wanzhu Clam. When the soul body was about to wrap the Xuanguang Wanzhu Clam, it was suddenly pushed away by another soul force.
She was stunned for a moment, looking at this all-too-familiar spiritual power and said, "Senior Brother?"
She didn't notice the spiritual power of her senior brother at all. She thought that when she took the initiative to give up control of her body to Xue Mei, her senior brother took the opportunity to come in.
Afterwards, she regained control of her body and did not check her sea of consciousness, so naturally she did not notice him.
Su Jinzhou's soul power rubbed her cheek, but he did not answer her. Instead, the scattered soul light gradually became condensed, and soon it became the same as the soul body separated from Ji Tang.
Jitang's expression suddenly changed.
She immediately tried to stop him, but was blocked by the solid body of the soul!
Su Jinzhou was sure that she would not dare to make any big moves. If she tried to stop her by force, she would definitely be able to stop her, but it would also cause damage to Su Jinzhou's soul.
What he wanted was for Ji Tang to be restrained.
Su Jinzhou's soul did not hesitate and directly wrapped the Xuanguang Wanzhu Clam inside.
At the same time, the soul that was blocking Jitang also merged with the soul that wrapped the Xuanguang Wanzhu Clam at this moment.
The fairy energy quickly disappeared.
Su Jinzhou's true spirit flew towards Jitang.
Ji Tang's eyes were red, and he silently held his primordial spirit body close to his forehead.
"I'll settle the score with you when I get out."
Su Jinzhou finally spoke at this time, with a smile, "Okay, it's up to you when the time comes."
His voice was a little low.
Ji Tang gritted his teeth in pain and took Su Jinzhou's soul and his own body back into his sea of consciousness.
