The next morning, Xue Chunqiu returned.
"Senior Xue... huh? Are you injured?"
Xiao Chen looked at Xue Chunqiu's pale face, frowned slightly, and was also surprised.
Who can hurt Xue Chunqiu?
Although Xiao Chen had not fought with the Half-Step Innates much, he also felt that even among the Half-Step Innates, Xue Chunqiu was considered to be one of the top strong ones.
"Yeah, I got a little hurt, nothing serious."
Xue Chunqiu nodded, took out a palm-sized statue and handed it to Xiao Chen.
“There should be a transformed being hidden in here.”
"ah?"
Hearing Xue Chunqiu's words, Xiao Chen's eyes widened. Did he really catch a transformed person?
That’s awesome!
Only after he took the statue did Xue Chunqiu put away his knife.
This made Xiao Chen stunned, and then he realized that Xue Chunqiu had been on guard against this transformed person all the way!
"He was also seriously injured. I think... he should be hiding here."
Xue Chunqiu said to Xiao Chen.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded and felt it carefully. It was indeed unusual.
After hearing that Xue Chunqiu had returned, the Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai and others also came.
When they looked at the statue in Xiao Chen's hand, they were all stunned. What was this?
When they learned that this was the transformed form that Xue Chunqiu captured, they were all stunned. Did he really do it?
Xiaodao looked at Xue Chunqiu with admiration. His master was so awesome, an absolutely powerful man.
Xue Chunqiu noticed Xiaodao's gaze and smiled. As a master, he was quite proud to be admired by his apprentice.
"That incarnation is hiding inside this statue? Why doesn't it appear?"
Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai looked at the statue and asked curiously.
"You must be scared after being beaten by me. You were cut into dozens of pieces. It won't be easy for you to recover."
Xue Chunqiu said lightly.
“…”
Everyone was speechless. It was so awesome that they couldn't help but admire him.
"I asked him about the cultivation of the soul, but I feel that his self-awareness is not very clear... I thought about it and decided to bring it back for you to see. Maybe you will find something."
Xue Chunqiu pointed at the statue and spoke slowly.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded and looked at the statue in his hand. Why didn't he react?
He thought for a moment and said, "You should be able to hear it, right? If you can, then show yourself. Otherwise, I will break this carrier of your soul."
“…”
Xiaodao and others were speechless. Is this okay?
The statue was still motionless, like a dead object.
"You're not coming out, are you? Fine, then I'll break your carrier and scatter your soul!"
As Xiao Chen spoke, he activated the Chaos Technique, creating a suction force.
As the Chaos Decisive Force erupted, the statue suddenly trembled, and then... a phantom appeared.
"Fuck!"
Looking at this phantom, Xiaodao and others widened their eyes. It really appeared.
"Who?"
The phantom made no sound, but there was a voice that echoed in Xiao Chen's mind.
If it were someone else, they might be surprised, but Xiao Chen obviously had experience, and it was the same with Nakatano before.
"You are not qualified to ask who I am. Please introduce yourself first."
Xiao Chen said coldly.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, the shadow seemed a little angry. How dare he talk to him like that?
But feeling the palpitating feeling coming from Xiao Chen, he forced himself to hold it back.
Xiaodao and others widened their eyes. Who was Brother Chen talking to?
Could it be that he was talking to this phantom?
But they didn't hear anything.
Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai's eyes narrowed slightly. Is this a communication between spirit and soul?
Xue Chunqiu was not surprised because the phantom had communicated with him in the same way.
"I don't remember who I am, but... I should be one of the ancestors of Yungang Dao."
The shadow said slowly.
Xiao Chen glanced at Xue Chunqiu. Did he really go to Yungang Road and bring back the ancestor statue that they were worshipping? He was really awesome.
The Yungang Dao is a first-rate Yin-Yang school, no weaker than the Qingshan Dao. It was just a coincidence that he destroyed the Qingshan Dao in the first place.
If Aoyama Zuo and Aoyama Akira are in the same group, then he will definitely die!
"The ancestor of Yungang Dao, huh? Judging from your spiritual imprint, it seems that a lot of it has been erased, and you have forgotten a lot..."
Xiao Chen looked at the shadow again and said coldly.
"Perhaps, it won't be long before you are refined by the current Dao Master of Yungang Dao into a Shikigami who only obeys his orders."
After hearing Xiao Chen's words, the shadow shook slightly and became even more illusory.
Although he has forgotten a lot, it does not mean that he knows nothing.
"Why...did he do this?"
"It's very simple. There can't be two tigers in one mountain. Yungang Dao can only have one voice... What if you transform and want to take charge of Yungang Dao again? Therefore, the current leader of Yungang Dao will take the initiative and start to erase your spiritual imprint before you transform, making you forget everything..."
Xiao Chen looked at the phantom and suddenly felt a little sympathy for him. This guy was much more pitiful than Qingshan Ming.
Aoyama Zuo wanted to wipe out Aoyama Akira, but Aoyama Akira was not someone to be trifled with... However, in the end, he ended up getting the better deal.
"All I need is a voice... I have never thought about competing for anything, let alone taking charge of Yungang Dao..."
The phantom was shaking and seemed to be unstable.
"You didn't think about it, but they would be worried... If Senior Xue hadn't saved you, it wouldn't have taken long for you to completely erase the mental imprint and forget everything about yourself."
Xiao Chen looked at Xue Chunqiu and said slowly.
"Senior Xue? Save me?"
Listening to Xiao Chen's words, the shadow seemed a little confused. Who saved me?
He did remember that someone chopped him into more than a dozen pieces and he almost lost his soul.
Xue Chunqiu's mouth twitched a few times, but he didn't say anything.
Xiaodao and others looked at Xue Chunqiu, then at Xiao Chen. Is Brother Chen... fooling around?
"Well, he brought you out of Yungang Road. It was like saving you."
Xiao Chen coughed dryly, feeling a little too embarrassed to continue fooling around.
"Is it him?"
The shadow seemed to see Xue Chunqiu, and thinking of the horrible thing, it shook a few times and was about to disappear.
"Don't be afraid... As long as you behave yourself, Senior Xue won't hurt you again."
After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he thought for a moment, took out the Eight-foot Mirror, and aimed it at the phantom.
When the Eight-foot Mirror was pointed at the phantom, the originally shaking phantom obviously stopped shaking and became much more solid.
Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai and others stared at each other. Is the effect so good? Immediate effect?
But why didn’t they feel anything when they used it?
"Yata Mirror?"
To Xiao Chen's surprise, the phantom recognized the Yata Mirror at a glance and showed a look of surprise. Moreover, this time it was not mental communication, but a sound.
"Do you know the Eight-foot Mirror?"
Xiao Chen looked at the shadow and asked.
"It's one of the three great sacred artifacts of the island nation, so how could I not recognize it... Who are you, and why is the Eight-foot Mirror in your hand?"
The phantom looked at the Eight-foot Mirror, then at Xiao Chen, looking quite uneasy.
"Why is the Yata Mirror in my hand? It must be due to some reason... You know the Yata Mirror best. Do you know how to use it?"
Xiao Chen looked at the shadow and asked.
Ghost Buddha and others were also staring at the phantom. Did he know?
If he knew that the Eight-foot Mirror could strengthen the soul, it would be of great use.
According to Xiao Chen's guess, their desire to enter the innate realm was probably restricted by their spirit.
"I don't know how to use the Eight-foot Mirror, but I know that it can nourish the soul..."
The shadow shook his head and said.
“…”
Xiao Chen frowned. Don’t know?
But why is it that for 'God', the effect is immediate when he just shines it?
Could it be that, because God has no body, the effect is directly on the soul?
"Yungang Dao, is there any method to cultivate the soul?"
Xiao Chen asked again.
"I forgot...I don't remember."
The shadow shook his head.
“…”
Xiao Chen looked at the shadow with an unfriendly look in his eyes. It had forgotten everything. Was there any need for it to exist?
As if sensing Xiao Chen's gaze, the shadow trembled slightly and quickly said, "With the Eight-foot Mirror, I will definitely be able to recover. By then, I will be able to remember everything..."
Among so many people, the one who posed the greatest threat to Phantom was Xiao Chen.
There was even a presence in Xiao Chen that made him tremble... Although he didn't know what it was, it was definitely brought to him by Xiao Chen.
Therefore, what he feared most now was not Xue Chunqiu who had chopped him into dozens of pieces, but Xiao Chen.
"Are you overthinking this? The Eight-foot Mirror isn't meant for you..."
Xiao Chen was in a bad mood, but he started to mutter in his heart, how about trying to restore this transformation?
"Then...can you let me go?"
The shadow hesitated and asked.
"I will never forget your kindness in saving me."
"I finally caught you, how could I let you go... Since you are of no use, I'll just kill you."
Xue Chunqiu said coldly.
"No... I am the ancestor of Yungang Dao, so I must know what you want... As long as the Eight-foot Mirror is here, I will be able to recover sooner or later."
The phantom was startled and spoke quickly.
"But...if you recover, you might end up raising a tiger that will cause trouble."
Xiao Chen looked at the shadow.
"I am willing to sacrifice my soul core to show my loyalty..."
The shadow hesitated and said.
"Soul core?"
Xiao Chen frowned. What is this?
"Yes, I am a divine soul. There is a soul crystal inside the divine soul... As long as I sacrifice the soul crystal, I will definitely be loyal. Otherwise... my soul will be shattered."
The shadow explained.
After hearing what the phantom said, Xiao Chen became even more interested. There is such a thing?
If what he said is true, then it is not impossible to raise a transformed creature.
Other people raise dogs, cats, and crocodiles, but he raises a humanoid...that's so cool.
However, how do I raise this transformed form?
Where to put it?
"Xiao Chen, don't trust his words."
Qin Jianwen reminded.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded, then looked at Xue Chunqiu.
"Senior Xue, this transformation..."
"If you want to keep it, it's yours. Otherwise, the waste will be destroyed."
Xue Chunqiu said coldly.
"Okay, then I'll thank Senior Xue."
Xiao Chen nodded and looked at the shadow.
"Sacrifice your soul crystal. It's best not to play any tricks, otherwise..."
As he spoke, he activated the Chaos Technique and grabbed the phantom with his left hand.
"ah……"
Almost instantly, the bone ring and Xiao Chen himself burst out with suction, causing the phantom to scream miserably and even become more illusory.
