Chapter 1520   Styx Ghost Body

The Yellow Spring Pond has a lot to do with Xiao Mian.

It was here that Xiao Mian met the dying Li Mudao, and it was also here that he was almost possessed by the ghost head, and it was here that he witnessed Qing Jing's growth.

Unexpectedly, those two people actually emerged from the Yellow Spring Pond.

But thinking about it again, Xiao Mian was relieved...

If the looming person is really the Nine Netherworld Emperor Xia Jiuyou, how can the Yellow Spring Pond be a problem for him?

That is the Ghost Dao Tianzun who can freely shuttle between the Yin and Yang worlds!

But what about Fu Qingqiong?

If she is controlled by others, why would Xia Jiuyou let her come to pay tribute to Leng Ningyu; if she is not controlled by others, why would she be willing to stay by Xia Jiuyou's side?

Could it be...

No!

No way!

Shaking his head suddenly, Xiao Mian returned to the Biluo Peak again.

After that, Xiao Mian, with the help of the Spirit-Seeing Eye, followed the footsteps of the two people in the past time and space and returned to the Five Elements Gate again.

The destination of the two people turned out to be the Five Elements Gate!

Xiao Mian, who felt more and more that something was wrong, had to enter the Five Elements Gate again!

With a lot of thoughts in his mind, Xiao Mian was too lazy to meddle in other people's business.

Under the guidance of the Spirit-Seeing Eye, Xiao Mian went deep into the back mountain of the Five Elements Gate. As he walked farther and farther, the look on Xiao Mian's face became more and more strange.

This road was exactly the trial road of Xiao Mian and Fu Qingqiong!

Sure enough!

Under the guidance of the Spirit-Seeing Eye, Xiao Mian came to the cave at that time.

The cave was still the same, the gravel was still the same...

The dark cave was like a bloody mouth that was ready to eat people!

Today, Xiao Mian has successfully condensed his infant and achieved the Nascent Soul Patriarch. Although he is only at the initial stage of the Nascent Soul, with Xiao Mian's background and strength, he can defeat Dan Qiusheng, who is at the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.

However, facing the empty cave, Xiao Mian felt a chill on his spine.

After taking a deep breath, Xiao Mian dared to go deeper.

It's not Xiao Mian's fault that he is timid. In fact, this cave is not ordinary.

When Xiao Nantian traveled around the world, he came to the Five Elements Gate and found a Heavenly Corpse Cave in this cave in the back mountain.

For the sake of the people of the world, Xiao Nantian resolutely used his body as a seal.

He sacrificed his life for justice and sealed the Heavenly Corpse Cave.

Unexpectedly, Huangfu Wei was attacked and killed by Xiao Mian and Fu Qingqiong.

Under the influence of the corpse gas in the Heavenly Corpse Cave, Huangfu Wei's body turned to ghost cultivation and became an undead zombie.

This led to Fu Qingqiong's danger and Leng Ningyu's death...

Thinking deeper, Xiao Mian was terrified.

The predecessor of Xia Jiuyou was Huangfu Wei.

Could it be that all coincidences are caused by cause and effect?

Now, for some strange reason, Xiao Mian revisited the old place again!

With all these things in the past, Xiao Mian had to be careful...

Step by step, Xiao Mian finally stepped into the forbidden area at the bottom of the cave.

In the forbidden area, the deep pit remained, and even the white bones of Xiao Nantian were still sitting cross-legged, but the corpse gas lingering on Xiao Nantian's corpse was gone!

Apart from that, there was nothing else!

The shadow wall that Xiao Mian placed opposite Xiao Nantian's corpse was also tampered with and no longer functioned normally.

No wonder Xiao Mian never received the warning from the Beidou Si Nan Pan!

But at this point, even the spiritual eyes could not make any progress.

It was as if the two people disappeared into the Heavenly Corpse Cave?

Could it be that the two of them actually passed through the Heavenly Corpse Cave and entered the underworld?

It is not impossible!

They can come out of the Yellow Spring Pond, so it is not difficult for them to enter the Heavenly Corpse Cave!

But in this way, Xiao Mian cut off the clues of Fu Qingqiong...

Finding Fu Qingqiong was originally a major event for Xiao Mian's trip.

If Fu Qingqiong could not be found before the spiritual war broke out, once the spiritual war broke out, Xiao Mian himself would be in danger, and whether he could find Fu Qingqiong was another matter.

Now, although he got the clues of Fu Qingqiong, it was as good as nothing.

Just confirming that Fu Qingqiong was still alive, Xiao Mian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as he was not dead, there was a chance!

Thinking of this, Xiao Mian's eyes focused on the white bones.

The owner of the corpse was Xiao Nantian, who Xiao Mian had impersonated for a period of time. To be honest, Xiao Mian and Xiao Nantian were also destined to be together.

The Lanling Xiao family and Xiao Mian's branch were originally from the same clan, and Xiao Mian admired Xiao Nantian's self-sacrifice, so Xiao Mian naturally would not let Xiao Nantian's corpse be exposed in the wilderness.

Before, Xiao Nantian's body was going to suppress the Heaven Corpse Cave, so Xiao Mian could not act rashly; now that the Heaven Corpse Cave has been sealed, Xiao Mian naturally does not have to worry.

At this moment, Xiao Mian took out a soul-sealing box and wanted to put Xiao Nantian's body in it, and find a Feng Shui treasure land in the future to bury it properly.

Unexpectedly, just when Xiao Mian reached out to touch Xiao Nantian's body, a wave of vibration emanated from Xiao Nantian's body and merged into Xiao Mian's body.

In shock, Xiao Mian let go and flew back.

Fortunately, although the wave of vibration invaded Xiao Mian's body, it did not cause any harm to Xiao Mian. After calming down, Xiao Mian carefully studied the wave of vibration.

It was clearly a soul body!

If nothing unexpected happened, this soul body should belong to Xiao Nantian!

Xiao Nantian has been suppressed in this Heaven Corpse Cave for a hundred years, but his soul has not been scattered!

Either this kid is gifted, or he has a treasure to protect him...

With a turn of his eyes, Xiao Mian put Xiao Nantian's soul body into the immortal stone space.

In the immortal stone space, the soul body suddenly transformed into the appearance of a young cultivator - obviously, this is Xiao Nantian's original form!

Looking at the appearance of this person, he is indeed somewhat similar to Xiao Nanyan!

"Excuse me, sir, is this Xiao Nantian Xiao Daoyou?"

"..."

"Xiao Daoyou?"

"..."

Faced with Xiao Mian's repeated inquiries, the man was just dumbfounded.

However, the ghost head was in charge of the overall situation in the Du Zun Mansion, otherwise if the old and sophisticated ghost was there, he would definitely know Xiao Nantian's situation.

Now, Xiao Mian can only deal with it on his own.

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Mian sat cross-legged and performed a magical power.

This is a Hinayana magical power recorded in the "Soul Separation and Soul Separation Great x-on:Method", called the Soul Calming and Soul Stabilization Technique, which is almost forgotten by Xiao Mian on weekdays.

Now that it is performed, it is the right medicine for the disease.

Xiao Nantian, who was originally in a daze, began to react under Xiao Mian's soul-calming technique. After a painful twist, Xiao Nantian sighed softly.

"Huh..."

"Fellow Daoist Xiao?"

"..., when in this life?"

"It has been a hundred years since you suppressed the Heavenly Corpse Cave!"

"How is the Heavenly Corpse Cave?"

"The Heavenly Corpse Cave has been closed!"

"Closed?" Looking directly at Xiao Mian, Xiao Nantian said to himself: "How is it possible? With the strong fluctuations in the Heavenly Corpse Cave that day, even if I suppressed it, it would only be a temporary solution. If the fire cannot be removed from the bottom of the pot, the Heavenly Corpse Cave will surely explode!"

"Things are a bit complicated..."

Xiao Mian briefly recounted the most important things.

Xiao Nantian frowned when he heard this and kept silent.

What else could he say?

A hundred years ago, Xiao Nantian mistakenly entered the Heavenly Corpse Cave. After weighing the pros and cons, he took the risk and suppressed the Heavenly Corpse Cave, which can be regarded as his dedication.

A hundred years later, many things have happened, but Xiao Nantian is just a ghost...

Even if he has the will, he has no power!

"Alas! I never thought that so many things have happened in the cultivation world in just a hundred years. I don't know if my Tiandu Xiao family can survive this catastrophe!"

"..., Fellow Daoist Xiao! There is no Lanling Xiao family in Tiandu City!"

Because he admired Xiao Nantian, Xiao Mian couldn't bear to lie. At that moment, he told him all the changes and recent situation of the Lanling Xiao family.

At the end, Xiao Mian engraved the images of Xiao Nanyan and Xiao Bailu with the branding stone.

"This is... my second brother and my younger sister?" Seeing the two people in the brand stone with heroic figures, Xiao Nantian was shocked and said repeatedly: "Good! Good! Good!"

"Fellow Daoist Xiao! I see that although you only have this soul body left, you have not completely sunk. If you re-enter the reincarnation, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope!"

"Re-enter the reincarnation? A glimmer of hope? Ha! You don't understand..."

With a casual smile, Xiao Nantian revealed his origins.

It turns out that the eldest young master of the Lanling Xiao family is not an ordinary person.

Xiao Nantian has the second-ranked Styx Ghost Body among the ten ghost bodies!

This Styx Ghost Body ranks second only to the Netherworld Ghost Body.

To be honest, the Netherworld Ghost Body cannot be regarded as a ghost body. The holder of the Netherworld Ghost Body is almost a creature in the underworld.

In this way, the second-ranked Styx Ghost Body is the strongest ghost body.

The Styx Ghost Body has a characteristic, which is that it can absorb ghost energy on its own.

Because of this, Xiao Nantian had another opportunity when he passed through the ghost realm of the underworld in Xishuzhou. It was also because of this that Xiao Nantian dared to take the risk when he first saw the Heavenly Corpse Cave.

The Styx ghost body originally strengthened itself by absorbing ghost energy.

Unfortunately, the Heavenly Corpse Qi in the Heavenly Corpse Cave was of too high a grade.

Xiao Nantian's Styx ghost body was not blessed!

In the end, Xiao Nantian died and his soul was scattered.

It is not known whether it was because of the Heavenly Corpse Cave or Xiao Nantian's Styx ghost body, although Xiao Nantian died, this soul body was fortunately preserved.

Until - met Xiao Mian!

For a hundred years, the Heavenly Corpse Qi continued to sacrifice Xiao Nantian's Styx ghost body.

Now, even if Xiao Nantian wants to reincarnate, he is afraid that he is desperate.

But if he wants to switch to ghost cultivation, it is difficult to succeed with just that soul body - without Xiao Mian's soul-soothing technique, Xiao Nantian can't stand at all!

Xiao Mian, you can't always be with Xiao Nantian, right?

Another way is for Xiao Mian to teach the "Soul Separation Method" directly to Xiao Nantian, and let him use the Soul Calming and Soul Calming Technique on himself. But now Xiao Nantian only has one soul body, how can he practice the "Soul Separation Method"?

The essence of the "Soul Separation Method" is to separate first and then combine.

If Xiao Nantian's soul body is divided again, I am afraid it will be completely annihilated!

"This Taoist friend..."

"My surname is Xiao, and I am also a relative of your Lanling Xiao family!"

"Daoyou Xiao! I, Xiao Nantian, have no regrets in this life. Before I die, I can see my brother and sister so outstanding, and I will die without regrets!" At this point, Xiao Nantian changed the subject: "What about life? What about death? It's just a change of form! I hope that Xiao Daoyou will help me and send Xiao off for the last time!"

"..."

Xiao Nantian clearly wants to end his life.

However, Xiao Nantian is now just a spirit body, and has been corroded by the Heavenly Corpse Qi for a hundred years, so he doesn't even have the ability to live this life.

So he had to ask Xiao Mian for help...

For a person, losing the right to live is certainly a kind of sadness, but losing the right to die is undoubtedly even more sad!

Facing Xiao Nantian, Xiao Mian nodded slowly.

Not pity, but respect!

"Huh..., thank you, Xiao Daoyou!" Xiao Nantian, relieved, but did not forget to warn Xiao Mian: "After I die, please Xiao Daoyou handle my remains carefully. It is a ghost body of the Styx, and it has been refined by the heavenly corpse for a hundred years. It is not trivial! I think Xiao Daoyou is not an ordinary person. I think there must be a way to deal with it well, but if Xiao Daoyou is helpless, you might as well go to the ghost domain of the underworld in Xishuzhou!"

"Xiao, I will not let Brother Xiao down!"

"Thank you!"

"Take care!"

The friendship between gentlemen is as indifferent as water.

With a few words, Xiao Mian sent Xiao Nantian into reincarnation.

In this way, there was no mark of Xiao Nantian in the bones.

According to Xiao Nantian's last wish before his death, Xiao Mian has the right to dispose of this Styx ghost body. If Xiao Mian is helpless, that's another matter.

To be honest, this Styx ghost body is like a top-level spiritual material.

Especially for ghost cultivators, it is the most superior spiritual body.

As long as one's own soul is integrated into this Styx ghost body, it can be sacrificed and refined. In the future, it will be easy to take over the body and be reborn, or to cultivate into an avatar.

Although Xiao Mian is not a ghost cultivator, he has dabbled in all kinds of things in the world.

With a casual touch, the Styx ghost body was taken into Xiao Mian's pocket.

Just wait for the future, and use it well.

But at this moment, Xiao Mian had an idea...

If the looming person he was following was really the Nine Nether Emperor Xia Jiuyou, the roots of the Styx ghost body would definitely not escape the eyes of the ghost giant.

Xia Jiuyou abandoned it, was it disdain, or was there another hidden reason?

Or is that person not Xia Jiuyou?

Huh...

After exhaling a breath of turbid air, Xiao Mian groaned in silence.

Since he had lost the clue of Fu Qingqiong, Xiao Mian could only follow the plan.

According to the plan, Xiao Mian returned to the Five Elements Sect this time for the ancestor Xiao Wuxing.

It's strange!

This founder of the Five Elements Sect is also a member of the Xiao family. Before that, in the Cheng'en Tower, Xiao Mian heard the name of Xiao Wuxing and didn't have time to think about it. After calming down, Xiao Mian couldn't help wondering: Is there any relationship between his Xiao family and the ancestor Xiao family?

But there is no evidence, Xiao Mian is just thinking about it.

According to the prior discussion with the ancestor Wuxing, Xiao Mian withdrew from the cave, left the back mountain, and sneaked towards Houtuping.

Passing Houtuping, Xiao Mian entered an ancient tomb...

Here is the burial place of the ancestors of the Five Elements Sect!

The place that the ancestor Wuxing asked Xiao Mian to find is in this group of ancient tombs of ten thousand years!

But at the entrance of the cemetery, Xiao Mian saw a white-haired old man - this old man was the gravekeeper of the cemetery. Xiao Mian had seen him before when he went with Leng Ningyu to explore the tomb of the Five Spirits Patriarch. He never thought that he was still alive decades later.

On the contrary, the once famous fairy Leng Ningyu died...

With a sweep of his spiritual sense, Xiao Mian found that the white-haired old man was just a foundation-building cultivator.

In order to avoid more dreams at night, Xiao Mian used the shadowless escape and quietly sneaked into the cemetery.

Target - the tomb of the founder of the Five Elements Sect!

To be honest, the founder Wu Xing has never died!

The so-called tomb of the founder is just an empty tomb.

Although Xiao Mian didn't know why the founder Wu Xing asked him to find his empty tomb, since the founder said so, there must be a reason for him.

As the founder of the Five Elements Sect, Xiao Wu Xing's tomb is at the highest point of the entire cemetery, and it can be vaguely seen from a distance.

However, Xiao Mian walked for a long time, but he didn't find the empty tomb!

He suddenly stopped, his face solemn.

No!

There's something strange!

With Xiao Mian's current speed, after so long, he has already traveled all over the entire Five Elements Mountain Range, not to mention the small cemetery.

If it wasn't Xiao Mian who had a problem, it was this cemetery...

With a start, Xiao Mian remembered Leng Ningyu's earnest warning when he brought him into the cemetery: There is an extremely powerful and sophisticated restriction in the cemetery!

Could it be that this restriction is so sophisticated that even he didn't notice it?

Thinking of this, Xiao Mian still didn't believe it.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Mian used his peeping eyes to scan the surroundings.

As a result, he found nothing...

But at this moment, a sound startled Xiao Mian.

With a flicker of his body, Xiao Mian turned into a shadowless escape and disappeared.

Then he saw a man walking up the mountain road, it was the white-haired old man.

The white-haired old man held a broom, bent down every step, and carefully swept the stone steps.

Obviously, this was his daily homework.

Concentrating and calming down, Xiao Mian scanned the white-haired old man with his spiritual eyes.

As a result, there was nothing unusual - that was an ordinary foundation-building cultivator who couldn't be more ordinary. Judging from his appearance, he was very old and would not live long.

Waiting for the old man to pass by him, Xiao Mian showed his figure.

Looking at the direction where the old man disappeared, Xiao Mian frowned slightly.

The next moment, Xiao Mian turned to look at the empty tomb of Master Wu Xing and continued.

He didn't believe that he, a living person, would be killed by an empty tomb!

But - the more he didn't believe in evil, the more evil he encountered!

After that, Xiao Mian wandered around in the cemetery and lost his way!

At that moment, a term emerged in Xiao Mian's mind - ghost wall!

Could it be that he really saw a ghost?

Xiao Mian had this thought in his mind, and his expression changed.

Just because, he heard the faint sweeping sound again...

Huh...

Really, there is no way to avoid it!

Thinking of this, Xiao Mian was too lazy to use the Shadowless Escape, and just stood there with his head held high, waiting for the white-haired old man to come to him.

He didn't believe it - it would be so coincidental!

Gradually, the white-haired old man swept over again.

Xiao Mian was clearly standing there, but the white-haired old man turned a blind eye and just swept past Xiao Mian. He was about to disappear again.

Could it be that he didn't cancel the Shadowless Escape?

It shouldn't be!

After confirming again and again that he didn't use the Shadowless Escape, Xiao Mian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Mian turned around and called the white-haired old man.

"Old man, please stay!"

"Are you calling me?" The white-haired old man stopped sweeping the floor and asked calmly without even turning his head, "What instructions do you have?"

This time, Xiao Mian was stumped...
