Chapter 479 Welcome the Emperor (End of this volume)

At this moment, in the eyes of Emperor Ziwei's remnant soul, Gu Xu's temperament was completely different from before.

Although he has always had a pale complexion due to his weak health.

But it has never been as white as paper and lifeless as it is now.

It doesn't look like a living person, but more like a corpse crawling out of a coffin, exuding a cold, non-human aura.

"You actually turned yourself into a ghost?" Emperor Ziwei couldn't help but asked in surprise, "So it turns out that you have been studying the 'Ming Zhao Forbidden Technique' every day for such a purpose?"

"That's right." Gu Xu said calmly.

Judging from his calm demeanor, it seemed as if he was talking about a trivial matter as ordinary as eating and drinking.

Emperor Ziwei had extremely complicated emotions in his heart.

His state of mind, ever since he turned into a remnant soul and dormant in the wilderness, has always been as quiet as an ancient well, without any disturbance - even if the hundreds of failed experiments from other worlds were shattered in front of him one by one, or if Chu Wuzong sacrificed his life

Breaking the Kunlun Ladder is still the same.

But now, after Taishang Haotian, a weak monk from the lower realm actually made him feel an extremely strong sense of frustration!

Gu Xu has always been a pawn in his hands.

He also felt confident that this chess piece was always under his control and would act according to the trajectory he had planned in advance, step by step becoming the paving stone for his resurrection plan.

But he didn't expect that this chess piece not only had its own ideas, but also gave him a big "surprise" just when he thought the plan was about to succeed.

As we all know, it is impossible for ghosts to be taken away from their bodies.

Although humans and ghosts are both prisoners imprisoned in the wilderness by Supreme Haotian, their bodies and souls are extremely different.

The body and soul of the human race are separated.

Fifth level monks can achieve the goal of leaving the body and reincarnating themselves.

Ghosts and monsters have body and soul that are one and the same, regardless of each other. The body is the soul and the soul is the body.

Because of this, when Yuki-onna chooses to burn her soul, her body will melt along with it.

And when Gu Xu chose to use the "Zhao Ming Forbidden Technique" to transform himself into a ghost, his soul was integrated into the body and no longer existed in the conscious world.

Naturally, Emperor Ziwei could no longer erase his soul and occupy his body as planned.

His remaining soul was regarded as a foreign body by Gu Xu's body and was rejected.

Thinking of this, Emperor Ziwei couldn't help laughing. His laughter was mixed with self-deprecation, and his eyes revealed loneliness.

Ever since Gu Xu was extremely determined to study the "Ming Zhao Forbidden Technique", he should have discovered that there was a problem with this kid's motives.

But he can read Gu Xu's thoughts at any time.

In his opinion, a person's thoughts cannot lie and cannot be hidden - the more you tell yourself "don't think about something", the more your mind will be filled with it.

Therefore, he firmly believed that Gu Xu had never escaped from his control and knew nothing about his plan.

Especially these days, Gu Xu has to chant the name "Lu Shiyao" hundreds of times in his mind every day, and repeatedly recalls the scene where the snow girl's burning soul melted into water.

His strong emotions of sadness, regret, and guilt almost infected Emperor Ziwei hidden in his mind.

This led Emperor Ziwei to conclude that Gu Xu, like his peers, was also an ordinary young man who could be trapped by love - he wanted to study the "Ming Zhao Forbidden Technique" at all costs, indeed to quell Lu Shiyao's obsession.

But now it seems that this is not the case.

Gu Xu couldn't lie about his thoughts or hide his feelings.

He simply used a stronger and noisier thought to attract Emperor Ziwei's attention and cover up his original thoughts.

Just like some people will deliberately choose to talk in a noisy pub, hoping to use the ambient noise to hide the secrets in their words.

At that time, in order to further gain Gu Xu's trust and make him identify more with the identity of "Zi Wei's reincarnation", Emperor Zi Wei relied on his profound knowledge and deep understanding of the great ways of heaven and earth to provide some small inputs for his research.

help.

Unexpectedly, he dug a hole and buried himself in it.

His pride as the former most powerful person in the upper world, his extreme confidence in his mind-reading ability and judgment, and his underestimation of Gu Xu, the "chess piece", caused him to fall short at the most critical moment of executing the plan.

Now, he has returned the power of incense he stole from Supreme Haotian.

After his soul was driven out of Gu Xu's body, he could neither use magic weapons nor summon his true energy. After the previous fierce battle, he had become much weaker.

And Gu Xu turned into a ghost that feeds on human flesh and soul—to a certain extent, it can be regarded as his natural enemy.

The Daozu became fish meat, and the fish meat became Daozu.

"It turns out that we are all the same kind of people!" Emperor Ziwei looked at Gu Xu and laughed with a distorted expression, "The way you have been so devoted to Lu Shiyao these days is just an act for me to see! In fact, in your bones

As hard-hearted as I am, all emotions can be used to serve your own purposes!"

Gu Xu's expression was still calm.

The ice and snow of Kunlun were reflected in his dark eyes, making his gaze even colder.

"You don't need to judge what kind of person I am." He said calmly.

At this moment, the remnant soul of Emperor Ziwei was held in his hand, exuding a very alluring aura, like a person who had been hungry for three days and three nights and saw a table of fragrant delicacies.

Gu Xu finally knew where his "spiritual summoning body" came from.

As a powerful man who was once at the pinnacle of the eighth realm, Emperor Ziwei's soul not only fits the great road of heaven and earth, but also has extremely pure spiritual power without impurities. It is a unique and powerful tonic for any ghosts and monsters in the world.

Let their strength be greatly improved in a very short period of time.

It's like Tang Monk's meat in the eyes of monsters in "Journey to the West".

During the time that Emperor Ziwei was hiding in Gu Xu's body, he was also intentionally or unintentionally modifying Gu Xu's body, making Gu Xu gradually become a more spiritual and more adaptable container for "Tao".

This makes Gu Xu's flesh and blood increasingly attractive to ghosts and monsters.

Newly born ghosts are always hungry.

Now, Gu Xu must rely on great perseverance to resist the urge to swallow the remaining soul of Emperor Ziwei.

Suddenly, as if he saw a glimmer of hope in Gu Xu's attitude, Emperor Ziwei stopped laughing, regained his composure, and said to Gu Xu in a bewitching tone: "Is it because you think I'm right for your delay in killing me?"

Are you still useful?

"Actually, we can really coexist peacefully as before. I know a lot of secrets about cultivation, which can help you avoid many detours and reach the realm of 'Returning to the Ruins' as quickly as possible; I also know the relationship between Emperor Tianxing and Dahuang

The many weaknesses of the prison can make your future battles much less difficult; I also know how to cross space, allowing you to see the scenery of different worlds..."

Having said this, Emperor Ziwei remembered something important. He paused for a moment and said with emphasis: "Don't you care about your relatives in the original world called 'Earth'? If you let me go, I will

I can send you back and reunite with them.

"Wenchang should be waiting for us at the bottom of the mountain. As long as you take me down the mountain and use his power, I can do it..."

Seeing the faint fluctuation in Gu Xu's expression, Emperor Ziwei understood that his words had successfully affected Gu Xu's mood.

——Of course he didn’t want to negotiate terms with Gu Xu sincerely.

He immediately seized the opportunity and tried to self-destruct his soul.

He chose to blow himself up, certainly not to commit suicide.

It's because Luo Chuan carries a "soul-possessing stone" on his body.

This is a precious magic weapon from the upper world.

Before he executed the plan to seize Gu Xu's cause and effect, he had already hidden a ray of his soul on the "soul-possessing stone". Once something unexpected happened to his soul, he could use the "soul-possessing stone" to reborn his soul in a

A safe place to regenerate.

However, at the moment when his soul was about to explode, he suddenly realized that the causal connection between him and the "soul-possessing stone" had been cut off at some point.

——This undoubtedly means that after he self-destructs, he will be completely shattered and will never have a chance to resurrect.

So he abruptly interrupted the process of self-destruction.

At this time, Gu Xu was looking at him with a smile but not a smile and said: "You just asked me why I haven't killed you for so long... This is the reason.

"Also, you are still trying to use your words to confuse me and distract me - do you think that after I suffered such a loss once, I will suffer a second time?"

Gu Xu had already guessed that an old monster like Emperor Ziwei who had lived for thousands of years would definitely not die easily - even if he was forced into a desperate situation, he would still have a way to save his life.

Today's battle is about life and death.

Once he is slightly negligent and allows Emperor Ziwei to escape alive, as long as Emperor Ziwei joins Luo Chuan, the "Wolf God", and the people from the "Qing Ming" organization, then Gu, who is only in the sixth realm, will

Xu will be doomed and there will be no place for him in the world.

Emperor Ziwei and those under his command will do everything possible to kill him.

Therefore, Emperor Ziwei must die today, must die completely.

Just now, Gu Xu deliberately exposed a flaw, making Emperor Ziwei think he saw a glimmer of hope for escape, and couldn't wait to establish a cause-and-effect connection with the "soul-possessing stone".

After today's battle in the Netherworld, Gu Xu's understanding of the law of cause and effect was far better than before, and he immediately noticed Emperor Ziwei's move.
