Chapter 177: Chapter 177 Entrustnt
In an instant, Shi Hao and Xia ngyin once again felt goosebumps all over their bodies.
Appearing and disappearing like a ghost!
Looking at the other party with a sword stuck in his head and dirty blood flowing, Shi Hao and Xia ngyin couldn’t help but suspect that this was not a person, but a ghost!
Could there be ghosts in this world…?
The pursuit of cultivation goes against nature, seizing the power of Heaven and Earth to strengthen oneself, so since even Heaven can be defied, who would still believe in the existence of ghosts and deities?
But no matter how one looked at it, this elder seed like a ghost.
“Hehehehe.” The elder curled his lips into a string of laughter. Combined with his appearance, it was even more chilling.
Shi Hao and Xia ngyin didn’t make a sound. No matter what, it was better not to provoke this old man.
If you want to laugh foolishly, then laugh foolishly.
After a while, the elder finally stopped. The entirely white eyes now each had a red dot that gradually enlarged, turning into a pair of crimson pupils.
Eh!
You’ve co back to life?
Shi Hao and Xia ngyin looked at each other, bewildered. Could there really be people with crimson pupils?
Crimson Fire Pupils!
An idea flashed through Shi Hao’s mind, which surely belonged to Yuan Chengmie, but even Yuan Chengmie himself had never witnessed the Crimson Fire Pupils and had only heard of them in legends.
It is said that such individuals appear only once in a billion years, but once they do, they either wreak havoc upon the world, bringing endless calamities, or they stand guard over the world, achieving great deeds.
One thought can make a god, another can make a demon.
The real reason is that the Crimson Fire Pupils advance too rapidly in cultivation, and they possess terrifying special abilities. The eyes can shoot out flas that can extinguish the heavens, with a horrifying killing power.
So, was this elder “in his lifeti” a heaven-defying figure with the Crimson Fire Pupils?
When the fire pupils appeared, the elder’s gaze gained a hint of lucidity, but it was still eerily disturbing.
“Young people, do a favor,” the elder said.
Clearly, he hadn’t opened his mouth, yet Shi Hao was astonished to find that the voice was directly resonating in his own mind.
Eh?
Divine Sense transmission!
He imdiately realized that this was an extrely profound technique that requires one’s soul to be highly strengthened. With a re thought, one can communicate directly with another, regardless of barriers like mountains.
He couldn’t do it and could only nod and say, “Please speak, senior.”
Seeing you looking at like that, how could I refuse?
Xia ngyin, however, was astonished. Divine Sense transmission is directional, allowing one to choose who can hear and preventing it from being heard by those not intended to hear.
So, she was puzzled. Why had Shi Hao suddenly said such a thing?
The elder smiled, which combined with the filthy blood on his face, the crimson pupils, and the sword sticking out of his head, made his smile more frightening than if he had not smiled at all.
Shi Hao was filled with retorts but held them back with effort.
“I want you to fetch the Neptune Star Divine Herb,” the elder said. “In return, I’ll transmit the ‘Sky-Flipping Seal’ to you.”
He didn’t give Shi Hao a chance to refuse. With a point of his finger on Shi Hao’s forehead, the tip glowed brightly.
Xia ngyin couldn’t help but be shocked. Although she couldn’t hear the elder’s words, she could see them clearly. This was clearly a soul transmission of so ssage, and the most common usage was to transmit cultivation techniques or martial techniques.
Techniques should not be passed on indiscriminately, so what could be more secure than this manner of transmission?
But why had Shi Hao, just by saying a strange sentence, caused this old man—who was uncertain to be either human or ghost—to pass on a miraculous technique?
If only she had known, she would have spoken up as well.
However, upon taking another look at the old man’s appearance, Xia ngyin decided to forget it. Although she was not a neat freak, she couldn’t bear this.
Shi Hao’s body quivered slightly, and his mind was filled with mantras, as well as the image of soone pointing to the sky and the ground, executing a terrifyingly powerful Martial Technique.
Sky-Flipping Seal!
He had not yet started to practice it, but just by quickly glancing over it, he was certain that it was an astonishing Technique, with earth-shattering power.
As to how strong it really was, he would only know after he practiced it.
“Within twenty years, you must retrieve the Neptune Star Divine Herb for this old man. Otherwise, you will be killed by the Soul Chasing Mark,” the elder said.
What?
Shi Hao was startled. What was the Soul Chasing Mark?
But when he looked again at the elder, intending to ask for clarification, he saw that the elder had already disappeared.
A living person had vanished into thin air?
Was it really a ghost?
Shi Hao looked at Xia ngyin and asked, “Did you see how he disappeared?”
Xia ngyin shook her head, her delicate body trembling slightly. She was now beginning to suspect that this might indeed have been a ghost.
No matter how brave she was, she was still a woman, and won naturally had an innate fear of ghostly creatures.
Although he didn’t understand what the Soul Chasing Mark was right this mont, Shi Hao had no desire to linger there, saying, “Let’s go.”
“Alright!” Xia ngyin couldn’t wait to leave.
The two of them left the ancient relic far behind before they finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the chilly night wind kept reminding them of the elder, as if he were standing right behind them, breathing cold air down their necks.
They returned to the Kuangsha Sect, where Xia ngyin first went to pick up the Snow Spirit Cat, then said to Shi Hao, “I’m leaving now.”
Huh, you’re leaving just like that, but why did you make a special effort to pick up the Snow Spirit Cat?
Shi Hao pointed at the Snow Spirit Cat, “Actually, this isn’t mine.”
“Master, ow wants to follow you!” The Snow Spirit Cat cuddled up to Xia ngyin, not showing a trace of its usual arrogance but plainly acting coquettishly.
Co on, how could you call her ‘master’ so smoothly?
This traitor! Knowing that Xia ngyin was the Holy Maiden of a Great Sect and would surely have plenty of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, this creature didn’t hesitate to betray him.
“Woof woof woof!” The big yellow dog also ran over, trying to nuzzle Xia ngyin as well.
Bang!
Xia ngyin kicked out, sending the big yellow dog flying.
You perverted, ass-biting dog, get away from .
“Alright, that’s it then!” Fearing that Shi Hao might fight her for the Snow Spirit Cat, Xia ngyin left those words behind and sped off, disappearing over the horizon in an instant.
“Woof!” The big yellow dog wore a look of dejection. It couldn’t understand why, with its wisdom, looks, and valiant heroism, it was overlooked in favor of a re white cat. Could it be just because the cat was female?
“Let’s go, back to the White Cloud Sect.”
Shi Hao took the big yellow dog and set off to return, and after more than half a month, they were back within the sect.
Due to the great distance and lack of communication, the disciples within the sect were not aware that the Kuangsha Sect had been destroyed and they were all downcast, as if the sect was on the verge of disbanding at any mont.
Shi Hao did not bother to explain himself—after all, if he did tell them, it’s unlikely many would believe him.
The Kuangsha Sect had fallen?
Wasn’t that an astronomical joke?
With Bao Dongsheng and the Great Elder in seclusion, Shi Hao waited patiently. As soon as one of them erged, he would leave to explore a broader world.
