Primordial Qi

Chapter 132 Ancient Remnant Soul

The ancient corpse was flying in the air, biting any cultivator it saw along the way. Gu Chenyu only felt a chill on his neck. Why did this thing suddenly attack and bite people?

"Several disciples from the palace have been sucked dry. Brother Lin, Brother Batian, it's time for us to take action."

Xiao Tian looked at the two of them. They were the only three who had entered the middle stage of the Venerable Realm. The others were in the early stages or even just at the Grandmaster level. The ancient corpse in front of them had at least the strength of a half-step celestial being. None of the three of them had any confidence in killing the enemy.

"Let's go. There must be someone behind this ancient corpse. I want to see who is playing tricks on me."

"Quick battle, quick decision. If we let this ancient corpse continue to suck, it will soon become a celestial being."

Three beams of light rushed into the air. Xiao Tian took the lead in attacking. A red-gold flame appeared from his hand, condensed into a lotus and smashed towards the ancient corpse.

Lin Xiu followed closely behind, a long spear cut through the sky, instantly catching up with the lotus, and flying towards the ancient corpse with the lotus.

A fire dragon several tens of meters long also caught up with the two attacks in front. This was a skill that Gu Chenyu had learned himself, and it was quite useful.

The ancient corpse moved quickly, trying to avoid the three attacks, but it was guided by its spirit and soul, so it could catch up even if it was out of reach of the target, and had a certain tracking effect.

The fire lotus exploded at a high speed and instantly got close to the ancient corpse. The horrific explosion only blew off one of his arms. Lin Xiu's spear instantly penetrated his chest, leaving a big hole.

The ancient corpse was still fleeing. This corpse, which had been dead for who knows how long, actually wanted to escape. Gu Chenyu's fire dragon swallowed it up, and when the three approached, the ancient corpse had been burned to ashes.

"Fellow Daoist, why don't you show yourself?"

Xiao Tian looked around vigilantly in case any bad guys suddenly rushed out. Gu Chenyu used his soul power to detect and the area within a radius of thirty miles was within the perception range.

"Tsk tsk tsk, people in later generations are quite alert, not bad, not bad."

A sinister voice was heard, and Gu Chenyu was stunned. This person appeared silently, which means that before he spoke, Gu Chenyu's soul hardly sensed his existence.

"This person's method of hiding his body is somewhat mysterious. If he hadn't taken the initiative to appear in front of us, it would have been difficult for my spiritual sense to sense him."

Gu Chenyu had a look of fear on his face. Whenever he faced ancient things, he would be alert, especially when facing this kind of ancient remnant soul, he had to be extremely alert.

The man who appeared was wearing a yellow robe, which was obviously the attire of a disciple from the royal palace. Gu Chenyu subconsciously took two steps back, waiting for the two of them to make the first move.

Someone from the palace? He doesn’t look like a good person. Moreover, he even killed people from the palace. It is possible that he is a remnant soul of the ancients.

"One hundred thousand years is too long. Many people have changed their minds and have also done things like taking over other people's bodies. If you want to kill the enemy, I will never stop you. Just go ahead." Baili Mufeng sent a message to Gu Chenyu. There are many people in Qingming World that he knows, but there are always people whose minds have changed for the worse...

"It doesn't matter. If he won't attack me, I won't kill him."

The ancient remnant soul took over the body of the disciple from the royal palace. As they were all in the middle stage of the Venerable Realm, the three of them were not afraid.

"Your Excellency should be living in the ancient times. Aren't you afraid of retribution for taking over other people's bodies?" Lin Xiu asked sternly. The methods of taking over other people's bodies are extremely cruel, more painful than the technique of searching the soul, and the people whose bodies are taken over usually will not have an afterlife.

"Boy, how do you talk to our ancestors like that? Without us, you bastards might not even be born." The ancient remnant soul showed contempt and licked his lips, appearing extremely cold.

"Your Excellency is controlling the ancient corpses to kill people at will. This is enough to make us enemies. Why don't you tell me your name and fight to the death here today?" Xiao Tian wanted to use provocation to keep this ancient cultivator. Although he was making convincing remarks, the lotus in his hand had already condensed into shape.

"Hehe, the three of you are quite good, with decent aptitude. It would be great for you to serve as bodies for my friends." The ancient monk smiled evilly. He regarded Gu Chenyu and the others as suitable bodies to possess, and his eyes looked like he was looking at prey.

Gu Chenyu was furious and was about to teach him a lesson when a furious roar came: "Purple Gold Demon-Suppressing Hand."

A huge purple-gold hand descended from the sky, and the ancient cultivator was hit hard before he could dodge. Lin Xiu raised his middle finger with disdain in his eyes.

Xiao Tian and Gu Chenyu were stunned. This Lin Xiu was truly a genius. While they were still secretly accumulating strength, Lin Xiu had already hit the man with one move while he was still talking.

"Brother Lin, I admire you." Gu Chenyu and Xiao Tian both clasped their fists. Lin Xiu's unexpected move had stunned them all. The ancient cultivator was either dead or disabled at this moment.

"Damned youngster, I can't vent my anger unless I kill you." The ancient monk's eyes became increasingly cruel. The whites of his eyes had disappeared, leaving them dark and black smoke rising from them.

"The soul-burning method? It burns the host's soul." There was a flash of pity in Gu Chenyu's eyes. The person whose body was possessed was really dead.

"It feels good. It has restored some of my health in an instant. I am in the late stage of the Venerable Realm. It's interesting. I wonder if you can handle it."

The ancient monk came to Lin Xiu in an instant, so fast that Gu Chenyu could not see clearly, and Lin Xiu was punched into the ground, raising a cloud of dust. Gu Chenyu turned his head to block, and he noticed something unusual. He did not expect that the ancient monk changed his punch to a kick, and kicked Gu Chenyu into a mountain.

"Brother Lin, Brother Batian."

Xiao Tian called out, and then grabbed a foot with his bare hands. He held it tightly in his hand. His eyes were cold and his tone was icy: "No matter what you are, you are just a Venerable now, I will kill you."

The ancient monk smiled playfully, used his spiritual power to shake Xiao Tian's palm away, and punched Xiao Tian in the face with a terrifying blow.

"Suffer death."

"You are the one who deserves to die, Great Wilderness Sunset Finger!" A loud shout was heard, and an ancient finger fell from the sky, covered with a strange Taoist rhyme. The ancient monk resisted the Sunset Finger with one hand, and his body continued to fall in the air.

“Let’s try this move, the Fire Lotus Melting Sky Technique.” A huge fire lotus appeared and rose from below. He blocked the two attacks and was about to fail.

"go."

Gu Chenyu bent his fingers, and a magic sword flew out, directly piercing the heart of the ancient monk.

"How is this possible? How dare you youngsters?" The ancient monk seemed to have lost his strength and was no longer able to resist the two magical powers. With an explosion, his body suddenly exploded into pieces, leaving no part intact.

"Just died like that?" Gu Chenyu asked the two of them uncertainly.

“He should be dead. Neither of us is sure that he can survive under the other’s independent magical power. No matter how strong this ancient cultivator is, his physical body won’t be able to withstand it.” Xiao Tian looked towards the center of the spiritual power storm. After being hit by two magical powers, the spiritual power there was a little disordered, and even the spiritual consciousness could be disturbed.

"Oh no, that soul is trying to escape." Gu Chenyu's face was solemn, and a golden light flashed by. It was his soul-destroying needle, which directly pierced the guy's thigh.

"What? Not dead yet? Great, that guy didn't run away but stayed where he was. Take another one of my Great Wilderness Sunset Finger."

Lin Xiu was furious when he saw that the ancient soul was staying where it was and did not run away. He formed a seal in his hand, and the sky and the earth became dim, and a terrifying aura came from the air.

"Stop, Brother Lin, stop. He has just been immobilized by my Soul-Destroying Needle. Don't kill him with one blow." Gu Chenyu immediately spoke out to stop him. He could know more by catching him alive.

"What?" Lin Xiu was horrified and hurriedly retracted his magical powers, but it was obviously too late. A finger had already fallen, but the power was much smaller.

Gu Chenyu could only quickly retract the Soul-Destroying Needle to avoid being destroyed. It was unknown whether the soul was completely destroyed after being hit. Xiao Tian hurried over to check and soon found the seriously injured ancient soul.

"Brother Batian, I'm really sorry, but it doesn't matter, I'm not dead yet." Lin Xiu scratched his head awkwardly. He thought that the remnant soul was provoking him.

"It doesn't matter. If we catch a tongue, we can get a lot of information." Gu Chenyu smiled, and took the two of them into the ground again. He cleared an open space underground, preparing to torture the remnant soul.
