Chapter 389 The Remnant Soul Backfires

This old ghost had just seized Ning Shuiyao's body, and her soul and body had not yet fully merged. At this moment, she rushed towards me. Her speed was not fast, and her posture was extremely strange. She felt like a puppet.

"Zhang Qianyu, she can't fully control this body yet. Hitting her forehead can force her out." Xiao Qi stood on my shoulder and whispered.

I nodded when I heard it, and then my eyes condensed. The whole person was like a tiger out of a cage. Instead of retreating, I quickly rushed towards the old ghost.

My speed was extremely fast. I arrived in front of the old ghost in just a blink of an eye. Then, I pinched the seal with both hands, shouted loudly, and pointed the sword directly at the old ghost's forehead.

The Soul-Fixing Finger is a technique used by us in the Yin-Yang sect. It works on both humans and ghosts. After being hit in the center of the eyebrows, the soul will be temporarily fixed. Although this time is very short, when masters fight, victory or defeat, life or death can be decided in an instant, so this short moment is enough for me.

But just as my finger was about to hit the old ghost's eyebrows, I suddenly heard a "hehehe" devilish laugh, and then endless ghost energy emanated from the old ghost's body.

This ghost energy was extremely dense. After it gushed out at this moment, it not only enveloped the surroundings, but even blocked the fire, making this place pitch black, and it was almost pitch black.

My vision was instantly blinded by the ghost energy, and the Soul-Fixing Finger missed.

"Behind you!" Xiao Qi suddenly exclaimed. .Seven

I was shocked when I heard that, and I turned around without thinking too much. I pulled out the Soul-Slaying Knife in my hand with a "swish" sound, and chopped forward fiercely.

The bright knife light was like a thread, and I splashed it directly.

The knife light illuminated the surroundings. At that moment, I saw a face with veins and ghost energy. I saw her eyes wide open, and her eyes were full of astonishment. Obviously, she didn't expect that I could find her position so quickly in the dense ghost energy.

Then, there was a miserable howl of "Ah", but it was my knife that directly chopped the old ghost's forehead.

Instantly, blood splashed, and the old ghost was chopped and flew backwards like a broken sandbag.

"Kill her in one go!" Xiao Qi stared with beautiful big eyes, excitedly shouting.

I shook my head helplessly, this Xiao Qi... seems to be a violent maniac!

After taking a deep breath, I shook my body violently, and then quickly chased after him with the Soul-Slaying Knife in hand.

But just as I chased after him, I saw Ning Shuiyao's body twitching in the air, and in a trance, I seemed to see a black shadow emerging from her body.

The shadow struggled inside her body, as if trying to break free from it, but no matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't break free. It felt as if something was binding her tightly inside this body.

"What's going on!" I stopped in my tracks, looking at Ning Shuiyao, who had fallen to the ground and was twisting and twitching, in astonishment, and whispered, "It seems that there is more than one soul in her body?"

"I feel it, too." Xiao Qi's expression also became serious, and she squinted her eyes, as if sensing something. After a few seconds, she suddenly exclaimed, "I know."

"What?" I asked hurriedly.

Xiao Qi took a deep breath and then said, "You chopped Ning Shui Yao's forehead with a knife before, forcing out that strand of Ning Shui Yao's consciousness. At that time, our attention was almost all focused on that strand of Ning Shui Yao's consciousness, and we didn't carefully observe this body at all. Later, you fought with those old ghosts, and we didn't even notice when this body fell down."

"What you mean..." I frowned and looked at Xiao Qi with a puzzled look.

"What you forced out was only a trace of Ning Shuiyao's consciousness. The rest of her soul was not annihilated, but... is still hidden in this body!"

"How is that possible!" I stared with my eyes wide open, looking shocked. Xiao Qi's words were really unbelievable.

My knife hit Ning Shuiyao's forehead, and even the trace of Ning Shuiyao's consciousness was forced out. The remaining soul formed by her devouring ghosts was not annihilated?

How is that possible?

After all, even the divine light at her forehead was annihilated by me.

But the next moment, my heart suddenly shook, and I felt as if I was struck by lightning, and I suddenly froze in place.

"Could it be that... the residual soul in her body has already developed independent consciousness, and the divine light that I cut off was just... an illusion that it created to confuse me?" Oh

my God!

If this is true, then it is too unbelievable.

The reason why this body can be like a human is entirely because of the guidance of Ning Shuiyao's consciousness. The residual souls formed by devouring lonely ghosts are just to make her look more complete and more like a normal person.

But who would have thought that the residual soul that Ning Shuiyao didn't care about, and even dispensable, actually developed an independent consciousness.

Moreover, it even deceived Sha Tianxiang Ning Shuiyao, hiding in Ning Shuiyao's body and hiding it from her for so many years!

"What is this residual soul going to do? Is it trying to take back this body?" I swallowed my saliva with a gulp, and murmured in astonishment.

"No, it's not as simple as taking back this body." Xiao Qi shook his head and said with a serious look: "After all, it is just a residual soul. Although it has independent consciousness and thoughts, it is not complete. Now, it should want to imitate Ning Shuiyao's method of devouring lonely ghosts to complete its soul, and use this to devour the thousand-year-old ghost to complete its own incomplete soul!"

"Devouring a thousand-year-old ghost to complete its own soul?" I was stunned.

Back then, even Ningshui Yao only used the exhaust vent of Panlong Bureau to devour lonely ghosts to replenish his soul, but this residual soul was even more cruel than Ningshui Yao. It even looked down on lonely ghosts and directly devoured the thousand-year-old ghost?

Damn, this method is... too wild!

At this time, a miserable howl of "ah" was heard from its body, and the dense ghost energy was surging around it.

"No, don't..."

Screams came from the body, and a vague figure appeared from time to time, trying hard to break free.

However, a pair of ghostly hands pulled it tightly, preventing it from breaking free from the body.

The next moment, the howling suddenly stopped, and the thousand-year-old ghost was suddenly pulled back into the body.

Even the ghost energy lingering on its body surface was agitated, and then quickly drilled into the body.

Then, the body was seen to tremble violently, and then suddenly opened its eyes.

"Is this... alive?"
