Ch 168: Deception And Intrigue

Above the Pond, black Light Flame soared into the sky, releasing a Death Qi that almost suffocated people.

The Towering Tree on one side of the Pond was shaking violently, its branches rustling.

The Remains hanging on the branches were shaking, as if they were about to be resurrected.

“Hurry! A chance like this is not to be missed; once missed, you’ll miss a great Creation!”

The Gaunt Old Man urged anxiously.

Lu Ye thought to himself, facing such a bizarre and terrifying scene, only an idiot would Act.

Immediately, Lu Ye’s Gaze narrowed.

The Reincarnation Nine Deaths Diagram that appeared in the black Light Flame actually turned into a training, sweeping towards him.

“Old Guys, are you fucking trying to trick me?”

Lu Ye shouted in shock and anger.

Boom!

In an instant, Lu Ye was completely covered by that black painting.

“Little Bastard, I’ve put up with you for a long time!

“Do you know that just because you didn’t cooperate, in order to offer the Reincarnation Nine Deaths Diagram, the little Power I had left was almost completely consumed!”

The Gaunt Old Man’s voice carried unconcealable resentment and coldness.

“Receive!”

The Gaunt Old Man shouted.

That painting wrapped Lu Ye, fell into the Pond, and appeared in front of the Gaunt Old Man.

But at the same time, on that Big Tree, branches suddenly swept out like whips, fiercely lashing at the Gaunt Old Man and the Reincarnation Nine Deaths Diagram.

With each lash, cracks appeared in the Gaunt Old Man’s body.

The Reincarnation Nine Deaths Diagram was obviously about to collapse, tottering, and the monstrous Death Qi it released dissipated.

“Hit me, hit me, with this Little Bastard’s Dao Body, I can escape!”

The Gaunt Old Man laughed, his voice unable to conceal the pain, but also with endless joy.

He struggled to raise his right hand, pinched his index and middle fingers together, and pressed them on Lu Ye’s brow in the painting.

Success!

At that moment, a strange Bloody Light shot out from the Gaunt Old Man’s fingertip and pierced into Lu Ye’s brow.

Boom!

At the same time, that strange Bloody Light appeared in Lu Ye’s Sea of Consciousness, like a Bloody Light storm sweeping in.

“Hahaha, This Seat has finally escaped!”

“After I take Possession of This Child’s Soul and refine his origin, I can replace him and embark on a new journey!”

That strange Bloody Light transformed into a tall figure.

He had a head of Blood-Haired Young Man, fair skin, a face like a Young Man, and a natural “Bloody Light Flame” Mark between his eyebrows.

“Aren’t you celebrating too early?”

Unexpectedly, the Sea of Consciousness churned, and Lu Ye’s figure, condensed from Soul Power, appeared.

“Purple Palace Realm Cultivation, and he can already condense a Soul Image?”

The Blood-Haired Young Man glanced at Lu Ye in surprise, then laughed loudly, “However, that’s for the best. The more abundant the Great Path Foundation, the more beneficial it will be for me to reshape my Dao Body, and it will save me from having to change bodies in the future!”

Lu Ye also laughed, “Are all the Heart-Burning Gu Demon Lineage so stupid?”

“What do you mean?”

The Blood-Haired Young Man’s Gaze turned cold.

Lu Ye said, “I’m saying you’re too stupid. You targeted the wrong person. It’s your own fault that you’re going to suffer this time.”

The Blood-Haired Young Man frowned and suddenly Acted.

This was clearly Lu Ye’s Sea of Consciousness, but he was completely unaffected, and he grabbed at Lu Ye with A Palm from afar.

Lu Ye didn’t move.

Only above the Sea of Consciousness, a mysterious star quietly emerged, scattering dreamlike starlight.

The Blood-Haired Young Man was immediately subjected to terrifying suppression.

“Whose Soul Mark is this?”

The Blood-Haired Young Man was shocked.

The Aura emitted by that star was so powerful that it made him smell a fatal Threat, and his face changed instantly.

But he still sneered, “This still can’t do anything to me!”

Boom!

Bloody Light Flame surged around him, forcibly blocking the pressure emitted by that star.

Lu Ye laughed, “Is that so? Try again.”

A second star appeared above the Sea of Consciousness, also releasing terrifying pressure, but it was completely different from the first star.

In an instant, the Blood-Haired Young Man’s body exploded with a bang, turning into a Bloody Light Flame.

“Why is your Sea of Consciousness so strange? Who are they? Why would they leave their Soul Mark in your Sea of Consciousness?”

The Bloody Light Flame struggled violently, with shock and anger in its voice.

Lu Ye ignored him and asked, “When I was Cultivating in that Mountain Cave, were you the one spying on me in the dark?”

The Bloody Light Flame churned but remained silent.

Lu Ye said to himself, “The only thing I don’t understand is why I ‘got lost.’ I originally thought it was you who did it, but now I realize that with the Power you’ve shown, you’re far from being able to do that.”

The Bloody Light Flame finally spoke, “Little thing, do you really think you’ve won? Your Dao Body is covered by the Reincarnation Nine Deaths Diagram. With just a thought, I can completely destroy your Dao Body!”

Lu Ye laughed, “Is that so? I want to experience it. You can try.”

The Bloody Light Flame fell silent.

He tried, and he tried more than once.

But it was useless.

He couldn’t even sense the Reincarnation Nine Deaths Diagram anymore!

“Little friend, the world isn’t all about fighting. We can be considered to have met without knowing each other. Why don’t we let bygones be bygones and each take a step back, how about it?”

The Bloody Light Flame said, “If I offended you just now, I hope you can forgive me!”

Lu Ye shook his head and said, “I’m scared, worried that you’ll play some other trick.”

After thinking for a while, Lu Ye looked up at the sky above the Sea of Consciousness, “Besides, I don’t want to talk to you anymore. You’re too insidious, and there isn’t a single truthful word in your mouth.”

“Like the ‘Pure Clarity One Qi Scripture’ you just taught me, it’s not just incomplete, but it also has many hidden dangers. If I foolishly Cultivate according to it, I’m destined to suffer Cultivation Deviation.”

The Bloody Light Flame said in astonishment, “You’re only at the Purple Palace Realm, how could you see through it?”

Lu Ye said, “I guessed blindly. I didn’t expect you to admit it yourself.”

The Bloody Light Flame: “…”

Damn it!

This Little Bastard actually dared to trick me, he really deserves to die!

“I guarantee that I will now pass on the complete Pure Clarity One Qi Scripture to you as my compensation, how about it?”

The Bloody Light Flame said, “As long as you are willing to reconcile, I have more Inheritance that I can give you!”

Lu Ye said, “No need, I don’t trust you. The mouths of the Heart-Burning Gu Demon Lineage are all unreliable.”

“If that’s the case, why don’t you Act immediately?”

The Bloody Light Flame said, “Instead, you keep chatting with me, I’m afraid you also know that if I fight desperately, I will definitely destroy your Soul Sea of Consciousness, right?”

Lu Ye praised, “As expected of an idiot!”

One star after another quietly appeared above the Sea of Consciousness. In the end, a full nineteen stars hung there, emitting various and completely different pressures.

“Now, do you think there is a chance to destroy my Soul Sea of Consciousness?”

Lu Ye asked.

The Bloody Light Flame collapsed on the spot.

What kind of person is this?

Why are there as many as nineteen such terrifying Soul Marks in his Sea of Consciousness?

The Aura emitted by each Mark is not weaker than that of a Gods and Demons monarch-level existence!

Is there any justice in this world?!

The Bloody Light Flame clearly felt that it was completely suppressed by the Aura of those nineteen stars.

Not to mention moving, it didn’t even have the strength to struggle a bit!

“The reason why I am willing to chat with you is just because I don’t want to waste the Mark Power of those Seniors.”

Lu Ye said softly, “Fortunately, you are very stupid and too cherish your life. You didn’t try to self-detonate at the first opportunity. If you had, I would have had to reluctantly ask an Old Brother to Act and obliterate you.”

“But now, you no longer have the chance to self-detonate.”

Lu Ye smiled slightly and raised his right hand.

In the Sea of Consciousness, a monstrous torrent of Power was generated, sweeping towards the Bloody Light Flame.
