Ji Fengyao was unaware that such a mysterious and heaven-defying existence existed within this small tower, and asked curiously, "Old man, what do you call this white mist? The life force?"
"Yes, all things in heaven and earth go through cycles of life and death, and life never stops. This life force is the source of all things. However, your current cultivation level is insufficient to actively guide it. Only those who possess the life mark can passively draw out this life force when their lives are in danger, which may save them to some extent," the mysterious old man said in a mysterious and enigmatic way.
Ji Fengyao even felt like she wasn't a mortal.
This mysterious old man is a genuine cultivator.
However, there were clearly no signs of profound cultivation on his body, and he was no different from an ordinary person, both internally and externally.
Ji Fengyao looked back at Shang Xiye beside her with an expression that seemed to say, "Does this old man think we're uncultured and is trying to trick us?"
Shang Xiye slightly curled the corners of his lips, signaling his young wife to calm down.
The mysterious old man pretended not to notice the two people's furtive glances and continued, "Do not doubt that this broken body exists here only because I was entrusted to give you some advice and enlightenment. I am no longer a person of this place, but just a remnant soul; otherwise, the life force in this tower could have extended my life."
"Grandpa, could you please just explain everything clearly in one go? Don't keep pulling your tongue like you're squeezing toothpaste, it's making me feel uncomfortable." This was the first time Ji Fengyao had been bewildered by someone, and she felt a prickling sensation in her heart.
Her short temper is almost out of control.
Hearing this, Ghost Face also came over, ready to join in and listen to the story.
Shang Xiye patted its back and made it lie down.
Then, I sat on its back.
Ghost Face: "..."
Who am I? Where am I? What the hell am I doing here?
After serving as a warhorse and a mount, it has now been reduced to being used as a stool!
The mysterious old man stopped joking and sighed, then said seriously, "I know you must be full of doubts right now, and you may not understand what I am about to say, but what I haven't said is something I can't tell you now."
Your cultivation is still shallow; knowing too much that you shouldn't will hinder your progress. After all, you now have entirely new physical bodies and entirely new lives.
"Hey, you old man, get to the point! Stop dawdling! Whether you understand us or not is our problem!" Ghost Face pawed at the ground in front of him again, scratching several grooves into the stone floor of the cave.
Ji Fengyao slapped Ghost Face with a thumbs-up from behind.
This dog has won her heart!
Ghost Face's anger subsided instantly, and he felt incredibly pleased.
If the mistress praises him, it's definitely a good thing; he'll most likely be rewarded afterward.
Unlike this unscrupulous master, who only knows how to enslave him!
"Alright, you beast, you're always so violent and irritable. If you could just tone it down a bit, you wouldn't suffer so much." The mysterious old man flicked his finger, and a beam of green light struck the ghost's forehead, freezing it in place.
Ghost Face's heart was filled with boundless turmoil, like a raging storm:
Who can tell him,
As the only Yazi Beast in the entire universe, there are no other examples available for research.
How did that old guy know where its weakness was?!
Shang Xiye carefully examined the ghost mask's condition and found that it was simply unable to move, like a person whose pressure points had been acupunctured, but otherwise there was nothing wrong with it, so she remained silent.
Seeing this, the mysterious old man nodded in satisfaction before speaking leisurely.
