After even the fingertips were occupied by this cold sensation, I raised one hand, formed a seal, and wanted to use Kunlun techniques to gather soul power from the surrounding environment to control the evil miasma in this body.
But when I began to gather the surrounding soul power, I felt a sharp pain in my heart.
The young boy’s voice in my brain began to wail again: “It hurts! What are you doing? You evil spirit wants to kill me!”
I ignored him and tried again, and indeed, an even more tearing pain came from my heart.
This body controlled by evil miasma… couldn’t normally gather soul power…
At present, I couldn’t eliminate the evil miasma in this body…
Just as I was in despair, suddenly I saw a flash of white light in front of me. Someone with two fingers as a sword gently touched “my” forehead.
In an instant, it was like a clean breeze passing through, sweeping away all filth.
The young boy’s fear and screams in the body subsided, and I also gained temporary clarity.
I seized this moment, without even looking at who was standing in front of me, and directly used Kunlun techniques to expel the remaining evil miasma that I could still sense in the body.
After completing this action, this body immediately collapsed to the ground, too weak to even stand.
“Kunlun techniques?”
I slightly raised my head, looking against the light, and saw Main God Ji in front of me.
It was indeed him…
Although most of the evil miasma in this body had been expelled by me, there might still be remnants at the junction of the meridians and soul fusion. My soul was stuck to this body and couldn’t freely detach.
I moved my lips, now without even the strength to speak. And even if I could speak, I didn’t know what to say.
Why would a low-level soldier of Magpie Mountain use an immortal technique from Kunlun?
Others might not recognize what I used, but how could Main God Ji not see through it?
“Answer me.”
Two words, accompanied by the divine power of the Main God, shook this already weak body as if it were about to fall apart.
I thought, if I didn’t squeeze out a few words, Main God Ji might truly take me for an evil spirit and cut me down with one stroke…
After all, “I” had just emitted black evil miasma.
I had to use all my strength to support my head, trembling as I stared at Main God Ji, and said: “I… I can still be saved…”
Don’t cut me down now!
Give me a little more time!
Perhaps I could push all the evil miasma out of this body…
Main God Ji’s gaze was cold, and he asked again: “Why do you know Kunlun techniques?”
Each of his words was accompanied by divine power; it felt as if my internal organs were about to be shattered by this divine power.
I looked at him, unable to answer. Just when I thought I was about to be crushed to death by the increasingly oppressive divine power around Main God Ji, another voice suddenly came from the side.
“He says he can still be saved.”
As soon as this voice reached my ears, my eyes immediately turned red. I eagerly looked to one side, fixing my gaze on Xie Zhuo standing behind Main God Ji.
Xie Zhuo tilted his head, looking into my eyes for a while, then turned to Main God Ji and said: “He doesn’t have much evil miasma left.”
“I know, he expelled it using Kunlun techniques,” Main God Ji said. “He shouldn’t know Kunlun techniques.”
Xie Zhuo looked at me as if saying, explain yourself.
I immediately said: “I… I met Kunlun immortals before, they taught me.”
Main God Ji frowned slightly, seemingly not believing my words.
But Xie Zhuo walked in front of me, crouched down, and reached out to check my pulse.
My heart skipped a beat as I looked at Xie Zhuo drawing near, without saying a word.
Xie Zhuo withdrew his fingertips and turned to Main God Ji: “Channeling spiritual energy into his pulse, one can detect some evil miasma, very weak, perhaps it’s truly…”
“Perhaps it is!”
I quickly interrupted Xie Zhuo’s words. I felt that if this precious one continued speaking, Main God Ji might behead me!
“But give me two days, perhaps I can eliminate these auras from my body myself.”
I supported my spirit and said hoarsely: “Strangely, I know Kunlun techniques, but Kunlun is also an immortal realm, Xi Wang Mu is also an orthodox Main God, and Kunlun techniques are not evil arts. I am indeed a soldier of Magpie Mountain. If I can save myself, at least… You won’t mistakenly kill me… can you?”
After this outburst, both men fell silent.
Xie Zhuo seemed to be seriously considering my words, and finally, he nodded as if he found them reasonable.
I swallowed and glanced up at Main God Ji again.
I saw that Main God Ji had withdrawn his killing intent, but was somewhat peculiarly squinting his eyes slightly to scrutinize me.
I didn’t know what this sudden scrutiny was about, so I could only quietly wait for his judgment.
“Since that’s the case,” after a long while, Main God Ji spoke, “I’ll take him back and investigate thoroughly.”
Huh?
Main God Ji taking me back?
I immediately looked at Xie Zhuo: No way, I want to go with you.
But Xie Zhuo seemed to completely misunderstand my gaze and directly nodded in agreement with Main God Ji.
“You take him back and investigate well. These days, I’ll go explore outside Magpie Mountain.”
“Good,” Main God Ji said. “The technique left on your necklace allows you to freely enter and exit my barrier.” Xie Zhuo nodded and turned to leave, only his words lingering in the air: “In two days, I’ll come check his pulse again.”
Huh?
They’ve agreed already?
I could only slump on the ground, gazing longingly as Xie Zhuo walked away. When I turned back, a hand directly pulled me up from the ground.
Main God Ji looked at me.
“The Magpie Mountain Stone Mirror has just been returned to my palace. Go through it again.”
Huh?
Going through the stone mirror is fine, but what do you mean by “again”?
