What If I Can't Die?-Novel

138 You’re Finally Here

The blood-robed old ghost’s expression changed. He had originally planned to secretly put on a show to trick others into jumping into the river and use the blood essence of living beings to refine Numinous treasures, taking advantage of the chaos to rise.

Now that someone had found out about him, it was probably impossible to do as he wish in such chaotic times.

He knew how these guys were. At this point, their attitude towards him was already very obvious.

“Hmph, blood-robed old ghost, your Blood Gate has long been destroyed. Now that the chaotic world has arrived, if you don’t join a faction, do you really think you can rely on yourself to form your Nascent Soul?”

Before the blood-robed old ghost could reply, Lu Youyou had an impatient expression, “My father has already given you enough face by making us invite you to our sect. I don’t believe that a scheming person like you don’t understand this.”

“Little girl, you’re really sharp-tongued. If not for the fact that your father is a Nascent Soul, how would a mere Foundation Establishment Cultivator dare to act like this in front of me? Hmph!”

The old ghost sized up Lu Youyou sinisterly. No one knew what he was thinking about.

“You?”

Lu Youyou’s gaze was mocking. “Even if my dad is not my dad, I’m still not afraid of you!”

She had a proud expression. Her Nine Nether Divine Body was a top-notch Physique in this world. Its foundation was solid and its foundation was deep. Although she was only at the Foundation Establishment realm, she was not afraid of the Golden Core realm cultivators at all.

“Miss, there’s no need to be angry with him. Let’s get down to business.”

Old Man Nightmare coughed and stopped Lu Youyou from provoking the blood-robed old ghost.

In his opinion, although the Miss was talented and had a powerful Physique like the Nine Nether Divine Body, she was still too young. It would be quite troublesome if she was really targeted by an old fellow like the blood-robed old ghost.

“You do the talking then.”

Lu Youyou crossed her arms and was too lazy to speak again.

“Brother Blood Robes, you don’t have many chances. Please cherish them.”

Old Man Nightmare said meaningfully, “This world is no longer the same as back then. In this chaotic world, even if you recover your Golden Core cultivation, your life will still be in danger at any time.”

“Hmph, I know, but I’m not free now. Why don’t you wait for me for two days or else just leave without me?”

“Grandpa Nightmare, look, this person really doesn’t know what’s good for him!”

Lu Youyou said arrogantly.

“Miss, don’t be anxious. We don’t have anything to do anyway. Let’s wait for him for two days then bring him back to the sect. The sect master will definitely praise you for your strength.”

Nightmare was very familiar with Lu Youyou’s personality. With just one sentence, her impatience dissipated and she was willing to wait.

“Alright, I really don’t know why Father insists on recruiting this old ghost.”

Lu Youyou mumbled.

“Blood-Robed old ghost was just a step away from forming his Nascent Soul back then. If not for Sage Golden Light’s sneak attack, he might have been able to become a Nascent Soul and would have rebuilt the Blood Refinement Sect.”

Old Man Nightmare explained, “Furthermore, the Blood Transformation Technique that this person cultivates is comparable to our Heavenly Ghost Sect’s Ghost Spirit Scripture. In particular, he has inherited the core inheritance of the Blood Refinement Sect, the Blood Rebirth Technique. This is a great divine power that even the sect master is quite envious of.”

“Oh, since he’s so powerful, why would he take five hundred years to recover from a sneak attack? I think he’s just so-so.”

Lu Youyou’s retort made Old Man Nightmare smile bitterly. “Miss, this person has run amok for hundreds of years before something like this happened. How can he not be capable?”

“Alright, I know. Wait here. I’ll take a look around Silken City.”

Lu Youyou thought highly of herself. Even if the Blood-Robed old ghost was considered a famous figure, he was still not taken seriously by her.

With a tap of her foot, she stepped into the air and disappeared into the distance.

Old Man Nightmare could only shake his head helplessly. This young lady had been spoiled rotten. She was a little unruly and willful and her personality was too arrogant.

He reminded her, “Miss, be careful. Not only are there experts from Great Qian in the city, but there are also demons. It’s already a mess.”

“Tsk, at most, we’ll encounter a Golden Core cultivator. Do you think those Nascent Soul old monsters will come out and bully a junior like me?”

Lu Youyou didn’t care and had already appeared at the city gate.

“Sect Master has protected Miss too well. I hope she doesn’t encounter any big trouble.”

Old Man Nightmare looked worried.

He did not follow her anymore. This time, the sect master had already ordered him not to follow Young Miss all the time. He had to give Young Miss more opportunities to train.

He retracted his gaze and looked at the cave abode of the Blood-Robed old ghost. He revealed fear. “This old ghost was supposedly killed by the power of the entire Vajra Sect back then, but he didn’t die. His vitality is really tenacious. Moreover, his lifespan”

“It has already far exceeded the lifespan limit of a Golden Core. Dao Blood secret techniques are indeed tenacious! Those who have reached the end of their lifespan in my sect can only continue to live on the path by becoming a ghostly cultivator.”

At the thought of this, a gray light flashed in his eyes. “Since this old ghost refuses to see guests. let me use my Nightmare Demon Technique to spy on what he’s doing. I hope I can see through the Dao Blood secret technique by doing this. If he betrays me in the future, then I’ll be prepared on how to act.”

With this thought in mind, wisps of gray airflow appeared under his feet and fused into the void.

His Nightmare Demon Technique was a very good Spirit technique. He could easily control the hearts of people and it was also very good at scouting the surroundings.

The Blood-Robed old ghost’s cave abode’s Array Formation did not completely block his probing. Old Man Nightmare’s thoughts invaded bit by bit and finally arrived inside.

He discovered that a young man was trapped by the blood river. He was naked and his body was filled with blood-colored knives. The Blood-Robed old ghost was adjusting the Array Formation.

This scene stunned Old Nightmare. He immediately recognized what he was doing.

Possession!

The Blood-Robed old ghost suddenly turned around and sneered, “You haven’t mastered the Nightmare Demon Technique, so don’t waste time!”

Two rays of blood-red light shot out from his eyes, shattering the wisps of gray fog opposite him. Then, he formed a seal and the Array Formation Power became stronger, completely sealing the surroundings.

“This old ghost actually discovered me!”

Old Man Nightmare, who was outside, became even more afraid.

The Blood-Robed old ghost turned to look at Song Shi and smiled unholy. “After taking your body, I’ll sleep with that Nine Nether Divine Body!”

As soon as he finished speaking, a blood-colored soul rushed out from the top of his head and entered Song Shi’s mind like a poisonous snake.

At this moment, Song Shi’s mental strength was severely exhausted, and his soul seemed very weak. When the Blood-Robed old ghost’s soul entered, boundless blood clouds rolled, stirring up his mental world.

...

As his mental world swayed. The Blood-Robed old ghost was like a giant, laughing arrogantly.

He sized up Song Shi’s Spiritual Space a few times and saw a star floating above Song Shi’s head. It looked very illusory.

“Kid, is this the phenomenon that you cultivated with your spiritual cultivation technique? It looks pretty good.”

The Blood-Robed old ghost laughed sinisterly. A blood-colored hand grabbed out and crushed the star with a crack.

Song Shi’s soul immediately became even weaker. He looked at the Blood-Robed old ghost calmly. “You’re finally here. It’s time to end this!”

“I suppose living like this is a fate worse than death. Do you want to die early so badly?”

The Blood-Robed old ghost misunderstood Song Shi’s meaning and strode over, “Then I shall fulfill your wish!”

In the next moment, he opened his mouth and expanded it by a hundred times at an exaggerated speed. The huge blood-colored mouth directly swallowed Song Shi.

“Great Yin Transformation!”

Although Song Shi wanted to die early, he also did not want to sit still to wait for death. When he was swallowed, his entire body turned into a lunar star and filled the Blood-Robed old ghost’s mouth, making him look like a strange snake that had eaten too much.

...
