Chapter 48: The Remnant Soul Takes Over the Body
When the mysterious black cloth covered Xiao Mian's head, the bright red blood was absorbed by the drooping edges of the cloth onto the black cloth, and gradually a layer of blood light appeared on the black cloth. The blood light flowed, sometimes turning into a ghost head, sometimes into Xiao Mian, sometimes into a golden array diagram, and sometimes into a fist-sized stone.
Finally, the blood light on the black cloth was fixed on the ghost head. The ghost head was incomplete, but it seemed like a living thing. It grinned and sank into the black cloth and disappeared.
Xiao Mian had no idea that the biggest crisis in his life had come upon him. Of course, even if he knew, it would be useless, because at this time his mind was confused by the inner demon, and the true energy in his body was running around, and he didn't listen to it at all.
The ghost face obviously didn't intend to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. With a flash of blood, the shadow of the ghost head had already entered Xiao Mian's mind.
Although Xiao Mian was unconscious, he still froze when the ghost head entered his brain, as if his body was trying to resist the invader on its own.
Possession!
The ghost head was obviously a remnant soul of a dead but indestructible strong man. It had existed in this abyss for thousands or tens of thousands of years, and finally waited for Xiao Mian, an eighth-level Qi training cultivator with low cultivation and who was just experiencing a period of infatuation.
Isn't this a godsend?
No wonder the ghost head, which had been silent for thousands or tens of thousands of years, finally couldn't stand the loneliness and planned to take advantage of the opportunity to destroy Xiao Mian's soul and seize Xiao Mian's body!
The ghost head had just pounced into Xiao Mian's brain, but saw that Xiao Mian's mind was wrapped in a faint black-white light. The ghost head was stunned, but time was running out. If Xiao Mian woke up in time, it would be ten times or a hundred times more difficult for the ghost head to seize the body. Immediately, the ghost head rushed towards the thin ball of light regardless of anything, intending to swallow it together.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, the ghost head fled from Xiao Mian's mind with a ghost cry.
"Ah! Ah - damn it! Taiqing Divine Light! It's actually Taiqing Divine Light!"
After the ghost head fled back to the black cloth, his face was still full of inexplicable fear. If you look closely, the ghost head seems to be more ethereal than before.
After spinning around the black cloth mountain twice, the ghost head seemed to have made a decision and turned to pounce on Xiao Mian's chest.
"Humph! The complete Three Pure Ones Bible has long been lost. I don't believe you can even practice Yuqing Divine Light and Shangqing Divine Light!"
While shouting like this, the ghost head disappeared in Xiao Mian's lower abdomen.
Xiao Mian's body trembled again, and the violent true qi running all over his body began to gradually calm down after the ghost head entered his body, and then quickly surged towards the Qi Hai acupoint where the ghost head was.
Since Xiao Mian's mind was protected by the Taiqing Divine Light, Guitou could not force a breakthrough in a short time, so he took another approach and planned to control the true qi in Xiao Mian's body first, and then compress it in the Qihai acupoint, so that the Taiqing Divine Light in the mind would lose its effectiveness due to the loss of true qi supply. This was also Guitou's helpless move of seeking the second best option - because doing so would cause Xiao Mian's Qihai acupoint to be broken, and his cultivation would be lost!
But the result surprised Guitou again.
"This... How did this kid cultivate? It's okay that his true qi is little and weak, but why is there a trace of poison wrapped around it?"
Guitou was thinking this, but Xiao Mian's consciousness gradually woke up because of the flow of true qi in his body.
The reason why Xiao Mian fainted was, on the one hand, because of the anger attacking his heart, and the blood surging up, and on the other hand, because of the chaotic flow of true qi - the former was relieved by the heavy bleeding in the back of his head, and the latter was eliminated by Guitou's interference, and therefore, Xiao Mian slowly woke up.
But the moment Xiao Mian regained consciousness, he felt a splitting headache, and his whole body was weak but heavy as if filled with lead. At the same time, the true qi in his body rushed straight to the Qi Hai acupoint in his abdomen as if attracted by something.
In great shock, Xiao Mian tried to stop the true qi from continuing to run, but found that he could not control the true qi in his body. Xiao Mian was shocked. If all the true qi in his body gathered at the Qi Hai acupoint, his Qi Hai acupoint would be forcibly broken. Once the Qi Hai was broken, the true qi would be scattered, and his cultivation would be lost, and his life would be in danger!
At this time, Xiao Mian did not know that he was possessed by the ghost head. He opened his eyes and saw a black cloth covering his head, and he pulled it off casually. In an instant, Xiao Mian felt relaxed all over, as if a mountain pressing on him was lifted up.
The ghost head in Xiao Mian was shocked. The strange black cloth was the ghost head's retreat. If he succeeded in taking over the body, he would not need the black cloth, but if he failed, the black cloth would be his last shelter.
Now that the black cloth was thrown away by Xiao Mian, if the ghost head could not successfully seize the body, his situation would be a bit bad.
But now that Xiao Mian has woken up, it would be even more difficult to seize the body again. The ghost head was also a fierce soul. Seeing that Xiao Mian had cut off his retreat, he worked harder to attract Xiao Mian's Qi to gather in the Qihai acupoint, intending to fight quickly.
But the ghost head was fierce, and Xiao Mian was not a good person either.
After realizing that the Qi in his body was no longer under his control, and the Qi in the Qihai acupoint was about to reach the limit of what he could bear, Xiao Mian gritted his teeth and fought!
With his mind set, he no longer hesitated.
Taking out the Xuanfeng sword and holding it in his right hand, Xiao Mian used the Xuanfeng sword to pierce some key acupoints leading to the Qihai acupoint in his left arm and legs one by one, and actually cut off the channel for the Qi to the Qihai acupoint, thereby retaining part of the Qi in the limbs.
"Are you crazy, kid?!" Guitou was so shocked by Xiao Mian's crazy behavior that he couldn't help but curse loudly. As soon as he said it, he regretted it. As expected, Xiao Mian was shocked when he heard it, and then he focused and roared: "Who!? You are playing tricks, get out!"
"Ah! Do I need to pretend to be a ghost?" Seeing that Xiao Mian discovered his existence, the ghost head was also single, "I am a ghost myself, and I am taking your body!"
"Take over the body? You are a soul? You are in my body?"
"To be precise, this will soon be my body!"
"..., shouldn't taking over the body destroy the consciousness and soul of the person being taken? Why is my consciousness still clear? You didn't destroy my soul?"
"Hmph! Kid, don't You are so proud! Don't think that you can't do anything to me just because you have cultivated the Taiqing Divine Light and protected your head tightly! After all, the Qi you can stop is only a small part of the Qi scattered in your limbs. After a long time, the Qi gathered in your torso can still burst your Qi Sea. Then you will be at my mercy, right? Hahahaha... You should think about how to beg for mercy from me first..."
"Really? What will happen if I throw it down?"
"You... you dare! ?"
Feeling that Xiao Mian took out a cold stone box from his storage bag, and used the cold stone box to pick up the black cloth, he was about to pick up the black cloth and throw it into the endless abyss. The ghost head appeared from Xiao Mian's Qi Sea acupoint in a hurry, shouting.
Waiting for him was a flying sword with ice blue bones and black and gold edges!
