Chapter 65: Possession
“Kid, show me everything you’ve got without holding back. My uncle is finished!” Jin Mingyang said as he took out five blue spirit talismans and affixed them to himself. He then flicked his hand, releasing a black rope. Afterward, he produced a fist-sized iron gourd, opened its mouth, and tilted his head back to guzzle down the medicinal brew.
“What’s going on?” Li Hui was taken aback as he tossed something into the treasury from outside the gate. With a thud, it landed on the ground—it was Zhang Tianhua.
Jin Mingyang wiped the corner of his mouth and said harshly, “My uncle has been possessed. You were right; he was too cautious. When faced with a strong enemy, he thought only of fleeing, lacking the resolve to fight to the death, which led to his failure.”
At that moment, Jin Buduan entered the treasury, his voice dripping with coldness as he declared, “No, you are wrong. Jin Buduan is not that weak. I have a few good life-saving techniques, but they shattered my body. If it weren’t for the fact that I had once stepped into the Bosa realm and was really at death’s door, I would not have so easily displayed my treasures to him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have had the audacity to come close enough for me to possess him.”
Jin Mingyang scoffed, “Hmph, possession will damage your soul. You do not understand my uncle’s body; you cannot exhibit the strength of the Initial Condense Essence Stage.”
Hearing this, Jin Buduan smirked with an unnatural smile. “Haha, you’re correct; many inconveniences arise. But it’s enough to deal with you two juniors!”
The King of the White Sea glared fiercely at the two, not wanting the news of his possession to leak out—such a revelation would bring endless troubles. He wouldn’t even need the Jade Symbol Sect; the Hidden Sky Sect would eagerly consume him.
Compared to the sect, even a ranking King like him felt isolated. Dalong deliberately caused divisions among the Kings, with some even being wandering cultivators from other nations. After being injured, he had to lick his wounds alone, with no one to rely on.
Li Hui was shocked by the term “possession.” This state was incredibly advanced; he had only known the word and never imagined witnessing someone being possessed, especially Jin Buduan’s body.
The term ‘she’ has a layer of meaning—it refers to a dwelling place. Comparing a body to a residence, to seize that residence to make it one’s own is a cruel idea that made Li Hui realize the bizarre nature of the cultivation world for the first time.
Even though the King of the White Sea had just undergone possession and could not exhibit Jin Buduan’s Initial Condense Essence strength, his battle experience meant he didn’t need to worry about these two juniors.
It was the scorn of a high-tier species toward low-tier beings!
It was the look of a fisherman gazing at two fish in the net!
With a clang, Jin Mingyang staggered backward, his chest clothing torn, revealing a heart shield. The five blue spirit talismans that had just been slapped against him had turned to ash, but he failed to see how the opponent had attacked.
Li Hui didn’t have time to ponder; nine peculiar heads, much larger than normal, dropped to the ground with crunching sounds.
“Hee hee hee hee!”
“Wuwuwuwu!”
“Gagagaga!”
The nine heads laughed and cried, their ears as large as fans, flapping like wings as they soared and darted among the ghost soldiers.
“Oh? The Nine-Yin Nine-Yang Flying Heads Ground Burial Great Array?” The King of the White Sea raised his brows in surprise before snorting with disdain. “Ha, it’s far from complete! At most, it possesses half the array’s power.”
Li Hui’s heart sank. He pulled out all the spirit talismans he had, and with a wave of his hand, dust and rocks flew about, concealing a golden sword shadow. Taking advantage of the moment to momentarily hinder the enemy’s steps, he first slapped a medicinal talisman onto himself, then a Blood Ignition Talisman. After thinking it over, he still didn’t dare to use the nine-patterned Blood Ignition Talisman. He crushed the infatuation talisman and tossed it out, deciding against using the drunken talisman, avoiding embarrassment.
“Oh, and I have this thing.” Li Hui took out a big lump of pink clay. Previously, he had saved Lian Luosha on the road and hadn’t expected to ruin Senior Sister’s plans. The nine-patterned anomaly Spirit Sense Talismans revealed the hidden spirit talismans within the clay, mixed with the powder for the infatuation talisman, hoping it would work together.
Before he could finish his thought, Li Hui threw the pink clay, the hidden spirit talismans naturally boosted by the silver snake bracelet.
“Boom…” The King of the White Sea dismissed the ridiculous attack and was about to shift position to capture the two when he was suddenly halted by a black rope wrapping around his feet.
This black rope originated from Jin Mingyang. Despite his mid-Gather Spirit strength, comparing him to the King of the White Sea, a being who had once reached the Bosa realm, was like a child facing a top-tier assassin. His skills would not even suffice to carry the King’s shoes. Luckily, this assassin was weak, leaving Jin Mingyang a slim chance to struggle.
“Oh? The beast-controlling sect’s Qilin rope is not a bad item, but it is wasted in your hands!” The King of the White Sea showed no concern and reached for the rope, but his expression suddenly changed.
Li Hui sacrificed the infatuation talisman, which triggered great speed. Magical, flowing figures danced around him. The King of the White Sea seemed to see his lover from his youth, but he raised his hand and shattered the light and shadow.
“Hmph, my past cannot disturb my heart of Dao! Cultivation should not be this easy,” he said, uninterested in his former lover, solely focused on his desire for longevity.
Just then, Lian Luosha’s pink clay arrived. Upon contact with the infatuation talisman’s range, it immediately scattered, rising into the air like ethereal spirits drawing souls.
The King of the White Sea was resolute and unaffected, but he couldn’t resist his body’s instinctive reaction. His facial expressions changed, and he gazed enraptured, even opening his arms to welcome the beauty.
Jin Mingyang and Li Hui were all too familiar with this expression! Only Jin Buduan had such reactions when he saw a beautiful female disciple. It seemed the possession wasn’t complete; a significant portion of the Remnant Soul still existed.
To be frank, Jin Buduan wasn’t ugly; although he couldn’t be described as handsome, he had a dignified appearance. However, these were just facades he maintained to deceive many in the sect, leading several female disciples astray. Therefore, he was not just greedy and cunning but also carried a lustful nature.
The infatuation talisman took effect! Jin Buduan embraced the clay transformed into a human shape and rubbed it incessantly, causing Li Hui to suddenly recall those male disciples who were crazily enamored with Lian Luosha within the sect. Had they been playing with clay all along? How amusing.
At that moment, Zhang Tianhua, who had been lying like a dead dog on the ground, suddenly jumped up, laughing heartily, “Brother Jin and Junior Brother Li, enjoy yourselves with this old monster! The green mountains will remain unchanged, the flowing waters will continue on, and of course, we will never meet again. Our future meetings are uncertain!”
Before he could finish, he shot away, tossing a dagger behind him.
“Bang…” The dagger exploded, causing Jin Buduan to shudder, half of his face instantly returning to its cold demeanor, his eyes fixed unblinkingly on Li Hui.
“Bastard!” Jin Mingyang cursed angrily. He had already started to take action, intending to do the same thing, but he hadn’t expected the opportunity to vanish so quickly, making him want to swallow a live person in his rage.
“Scatter!” The King of the White Sea roared, continuously battling his desires. He reached out and seized the human-shaped clay, smashing it violently, letting the empty murmurs and explosive symbols wreak havoc.
