IS Chapter 121
by VolareShen Xin Ge looked at Ye Zhuo’s confident expression.
Then he raised his eyes to look at the narrow, healed rift in the sky.
The excitement in his eyes was overflowing.
“I’m really amazing!” Shen Xin Ge said excitedly.
Wei Sheng Xian also nodded in agreement, “Indeed. Little Daoist Shen, you are truly amazing.”
Shen Xin Ge thought for a moment, then cautiously looked at Ye Zhuo, “What about what I did?”
“Don’t know,” Ye Zhuo said, “How about killing you?”
Shen Xin Ge pouted, “Is there no other way?”
Li Yuan: “Then you think about what to do?”
The Red Dust Sword Immortal, listening to their conversation, sincerely felt that Shen Xin Ge could get along with the people of the Micro-Snow Palace even better than he could.
Shen Jingzhen looked at Shen Xin Ge, as if he finally understood something. He was silent, his expression so heavy that it seemed like water would drip from it, and countless thoughts surged in his eyes. What was Sect Master Shen thinking?
“Xin Ge,” Shen Jingzhen said.
Shen Xin Ge looked towards his master.
Unable to express the thousands of words in his heart, Shen Jingzhen raised his hand and struck out a palm towards Shen Xin Ge!
Vast Daoist runes and seals appeared under his palm, with a power like mountains and peaks. This was a full-force strike from a Human Immortal, and there was no way Shen Xin Ge could block it.
Shen Xin Ge’s small figure did not dodge. The majestic aura lifted the blue Daoist robe on his body. He obediently stood in place, as if he was going to take this palm head-on with his physical body. In the Immortal Dao, teachers and elders were like parents, and a father killing a son was not considered murder, and a teacher killing a disciple was also not. If a teacher wanted to kill a disciple, and the disciple was willing to accept it, then so be it.
The force of the palm suddenly engulfed Shen Xin Ge, but the sound of clashing palms rang out in the void.
Another palm force came out from the void above Shen Xin Ge’s head, facing Shen Jingzhen.
After a huge shock, both dissipated.
Shen Xin Ge’s body still stood in place, like a clay sculpture, without any expression on his face, his pupils motionless, as if his soul had been lost.
Ye Zhuo had seen such an expression on the faces of the assassins in the Guan Huo Cave.
The aftermath of the palm clash spread around, and two blurred figures, one large and one small, were forced out of Shen Xin Ge’s body by Shen Jingzhen’s palm.
The larger one was gray, hovering above Shen Xin Ge’s body.
The smaller one was light blue, and after rolling a few times on the ground, it huddled behind Ye Zhuo in a shrinking manner.
Ye Zhuo looked at the gray soul figure. The face of that soul gradually revealed itself, a chaotic and dignified face that would not leave much of an impression on people. The Daoist robe on his body hung down, his expression was indifferent, his hands formed a Dharma seal, and the power of the realm slowly shifted with him as the center.
“Upper Purity Main Sect, Yu Ge,” Shen Jingzhen called out his Daoist title in a deep voice.
Yu Ge’s expression did not change in the slightest. His lips moved slightly, as if reciting a magic spell. The trace of the rift in the sky visibly faded a lot.
“Lurking in the body of another, your sect truly has a good plan.”
In a direct confrontation, Yu Shan, Yu Hu, and Yu Lou were all dead. It turned out that there was still a Yu Ge weighing the situation, lurking among the crowd.
Ye Zhuo looked at the figure of True Man Yu Ge.
He still remembered that in the dense forest of Yongcui Mountain Valley, Wei Sheng Xian had asked Ling Ming how many people from the main sect had come on this trip to the Ghost Realm. Ling Ming’s answer was four.
However, only three Dharma protectors were seen in front of the Ghost Gate. Even at the end, when the true motive was revealed, only three had been seen. It turned out that this fourth one was among them.
Xuan Wu had said that after the destruction of Guan Huo Cave, it was Yu Ge who extracted a wisp of every assassin’s soul and refined them into puppets to be driven. It was Yu Ge who did it.
Then, what True Man Yu Ge was good at was the art of the soul. Since he could remotely control others, then soul possession could also be done.
However, when did he come? How many souls and spirits came? Why was it Shen Xin Ge in particular?
Shen Jingzhen asked the same question.
Yu Ge did not speak.
The aura behind Shen Jingzhen gathered again, brewing another strike. But at this moment, a wisp of soul thread spread out from Yu Ge’s soul, connecting the light blue soul of Shen Xin Ge on the other side. No matter who attacked, harming Yu Ge would also harm Shen Xin Ge.
Shen Jingzhen glared at Yu Ge, wanting to attack, but his movements were somewhat reluctant.
Seeing this situation, others also hesitated. Sect Master Shen only had this one disciple under his knee, and had regarded him as a treasure for many years. If they attacked Yu Ge and harmed Shen Xin Ge, would Sect Master Shen instead stop them?
Moreover, it was not their turn to attack. Did they not see that Shen Jingzhen was facing True Man Yu Ge directly, while Second Palace Master Ye was picking up Shen Xin Ge’s soul, and the Micro-Snow Palace Master and another person were already in opposite directions, surrounding Shen Xin Ge and Yu Ge in the center?
“Yu Ge!” Shen Jingzhen shouted, “You are here to stop us, but if the two realms are separated, you will not be able to return!”
Yu Ge did not speak, but slowly smiled, everything was implied.
If none of them could return, Yu Ge would not gain anything, but the Upper Purity Mountain would definitely occupy the human world from then on, and do whatever they wanted.
Moreover, could they really not return, and could Yu Ge really not return either? This was only a soul body, not Yu Ge’s main body. If everything was done, could Yu Ge return to the human realm at ease?
“True Man doesn’t need to be so stingy with words,” Wei Sheng Xian said, “Now that the rift has been repaired and the barrier is strong, we can no longer return to the human world no matter what. Why does True Man continue to circulate energy and promote the separation of the two realms? Such spells consume a lot of energy. In a few breaths, True Man, your soul has already dimmed by two points.”
Yu Ge finally raised his eyes, considering it an answer to Wei Sheng Xian.
“Palace Master Wei Sheng, how many times are the words from your mouth the truth?”
Wei Sheng Xian: “I dare not, but since things have come to this, this time there is really no turning back. If True Man stops, maybe we can still get along peacefully and find a way out together in the Ghost Realm.”
Yu Ge sneered and ignored him.
“What benefits are there?” Ye Zhuo suddenly asked Yu Ge.
Yu Ge looked at him.
Ye Zhuo: “You trade with the Ghost Realm so painstakingly, and when things are exposed, you overdraft your soul to keep us here. What benefits are worth it?”
The Immortal Dao has the word “Immortal,” but since ancient times, they have never been true immortals who live on wind and dew. They are immortals cultivated by humans using natural treasures, spiritual energy roots, and inheritance of techniques. And no matter how the Immortal Dao claims to be moral and righteous, it will always be an Immortal Dao of interests, fighting and vying for each other.
Succeed and live, fail and die. The things that can make one Main Sect Dharma Protector after another willing to risk their lives for must have great benefits behind them that even the Main Sect True Men want to obtain. And the face that can make the Main Sect True Men willing to protect at the cost of their lives, if lost, must also be a consequence that the entire Upper Purity Sect does not want to bear.
In just twenty years, the spiritual veins of Illusion Sword Villa were divided, and countless other destroyed sects are unknown. Yin Ye drew a Spiritual Extinction Formation, gathering spiritual energy, but year after year, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth became more and more depleted and thin. The blood crystals of the Smoke Haze Small Realm are gone, and the matter of the Four Seas Survey Map has no follow-up. They have already used tricks against the Micro-Snow Palace before, and now they are secretly colluding with the Ghost Realm again.
Every single thing is for spiritual veins, but taking the spiritual veins does not seem to be for their own cultivation.
What is it for? Asking it, there is already a vague answer in my heart.
Don’t you see, every ten years someone from the Upper Purity Mountain can successfully ascend, while the Human Immortals of other sects often fall?
Ye Zhuo felt bored. So he was slowly drawing his sword.
Such a movement seemed to make even Yu Ge feel danger.
“My sect’s actions are all because they are related to the human world, and we have no choice but to do so.” Yu Ge’s face was deep, and he said, “I will not harm you, but with so many people, if you are allowed to return to the human world, many disturbances will inevitably arise. When the two realms are separated, I will naturally leave. This Ghost Realm is also considered a great realm among many Nether Worlds, connecting many worlds. At that time, you can disperse and find your own way out.”
“What considerate words. True Man is really considering many things for us.” Wei Sheng Xian clapped, “However, True Man really doesn’t need to continue to consume yourself and consolidate the barrier. The current situation is beyond the help of gods, even if this Palace Master takes action, and the Ghost Realm military advisor comes to help, they cannot break such a barrier. Didn’t True Man see that even Shen Sect Master and Second Palace Master Ye are not attacking you now? It is really because things have come to this point, killing you will not change anything.”
Yu Ge glanced at him deeply, and everyone was speechless.
It’s no wonder others think so much, it’s really that Palace Master Wei Sheng’s various actions along the way have shown that his words cannot be fully believed, or even not believed at all.
If he said it can’t be broken, then it really can’t be broken? Then why is he so leisurely and at ease? Even they don’t quite believe the truth of these words, let alone Yu Ge.
The soul on Yu Ge’s body gradually dimmed, but when it dimmed to a certain extent, when it was about to dissipate, it suddenly seemed to be revived, and once again urged the realm with profound magic power.
At this time, the scar had completely healed, and it was impossible to see that it had ever existed. The vast white barrier between the two realms was like a gradually thickening fog, completely isolating everyone’s divine thoughts and gazes.
Wei Sheng Xian sighed helplessly, “Why is True Man so obsessed? Does True Man think I am so powerful? If that were really the case, the smoke from my ancestor’s grave would cover the sky.”
Yu Ge sneered and continued to consolidate the realm.
Did he think that this would make him stop the realm spell and distract him from asking about his master’s inheritance? The more Wei Sheng Xian persuaded him, the less he would stop.
A dog that bites doesn’t bark. Wei Sheng Xian can designate a new spiritual vein that hasn’t existed for thousands of years with a single finger, can state the two-realm passage that they have calculated with all their efforts, and can also open the six gates of the great formation silently. Is there anything he can’t do?
Yu Ge fully urged the realm, and countless people watched his soul light dim again due to consumption, and the barrier between the two realms became more and more solid.
After dimming, it solidified and lit up again.
An unfamiliar, clear voice suddenly rang out.
“Twice.” The exceptionally young voice said calmly, “Yu Ge, at the beginning, one soul arrived. Now, your three souls should have arrived, right?”
This was not any of the voices they had heard before. This was not any of them.
Everyone was stunned and shifted their gazes from Yu Ge. Shen Jingzhen suddenly looked towards the direction the voice came from.
——That was behind Ye Zhuo.
And at this moment, slowly walking out from behind Ye Zhuo was a soul shadow of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy wearing a blue Daoist robe of the Hongmeng Sect.
His facial features were indifferent and handsome. Judging from his temperament, he seemed to have the gentlemanly demeanor of Sect Master Shen, like jade hidden in a pearl, but when he looked at Yu Ge, his fox eyes, relaxed and smiling, were slightly raised, which was much more assertive than Sect Master Shen.
That face was exactly what Little Daoist Shen Xin Ge would look like in another ten years!
“All three souls have arrived. Aren’t you afraid of not being able to return?” The young Shen Xin Ge smiled slightly, “I have been waiting for many years, waiting for the day when all three of your human souls will be attached to my body.”
There was silence.
Ye Zhuo felt that the Immortal Dao of this human world was interesting.
There were dramas every day, with open and hidden arrows emerging one after another, hypocrites and true villains taking turns on stage, and old foxes and little foxes fighting each other.
Those who wanted to ascend cultivated into monsters and demons, and those who wanted to be saints had to first learn to be scheming and hide knives in their smiles.
When they are hidden under the water, they are silent, and in the end, when the truth comes out, they will float to the surface one by one.
Having been watched by dragons and ghosts for enough excitement, perhaps a heart beast will be added.
“You humans are really interesting.” Li Yuan looked at Ye Zhuo with a smile in his eyes. Ye Zhuo saw his own shadow in his eyes.
Oh, and people like himself who are unscrupulous and ruthless.
