Chapter 313 The Mysterious Scholar
As soon as the little girl's cold voice came out, Bai Zhi felt cold all over. She immediately thought of the painting and the old woman she had seen in the town.
The old woman who was made into a human skin lantern by Du Fang talked about the past and present lives of her granddaughter, Ye Liushuang, the former Ghost Emperor.
Is Du Fang going to re-enact the scene that happened to the empress in the coffin?
Bai Zhi's eyes were misty as she looked behind the white cloth on the stage.
I don’t know what I’m thinking at this moment.
At this time, on Du Fang's side——
When the golden coffin was placed on the stage, Du Fang in the coffin was surprised to find that his body could move again.
He just twisted his body hard, and a dead black liquid appeared on his face.
Suddenly, a light purple lotus leaf fell from the blue and red lotus hanging above his head. The lotus leaf floated far away, but landed very accurately on his forehead.
Then, a strange scene happened:
As the lotus leaf fell on his brow, it began to melt:
The liquid around him began to disappear, and Du Fang was surprised to find that his body was lying on a simple wooden bed, surrounded by dilapidated wooden houses and a dim oil lamp.
It felt so familiar, like my childhood home.
But he soon woke up to the fact that this was not the house where he lived in his childhood.
Around the wooden board, a kind of weird, strange, yet familiar looking bamboo slips, with ancient runes drawn on them, were turning quietly!
What is this going to do?
Du Fang knew that this strange method was definitely not a good sign, but his body, head, and blood all over his body seemed to be flowing quietly along with the ancient runes on the bamboo tube.
And my body feels like it's not my own at all.
Not obedient at all.
Big beads of sweat appeared on Du Fang's forehead.
When the powerful evil spirit appeared like that little girl, he had already sensed that there would be trouble. Unexpectedly, in this ghostly space, even with the magic sword Chengying in his hand, he did not have the strength to struggle.
Where did Baizhi go?
Also, where will this be?
Has the spirit of luck that has followed him for more than ten years, that rat Wang Er, also melted into gas?
Countless questions come and go.
But soon, Du Fang was suddenly stunned. He heard a very faint sound of footsteps, like the sound of a snake's tail crawling on the ground.
then.
A person suddenly appeared in front of him.
He looked to be only in his twenties or thirties, and was dressed more like a scholar, holding a folding fan in his hand. When the scholar appeared, another person appeared out of thin air behind him.
A middle-aged man with a square face and flowing white beard.
The man had a dignified look and wore his hair in a square bun. He looked like an important figure who held the power of life and death.
The scholar looked at Du Fang very seriously, even flicked his eyelids with his fingers, and then began to speak:
"Pavilion Master, the young lady of the Ye family is here. It's time to hold the bone-changing ceremony!"
The important figure named Pavilion Master had a trace of pain on his face and couldn't help asking, "Are you 100% sure?"
The scholar smiled and said, "The Pavilion Master is a scholar with a hundred years of cultivation experience. Has he ever seen anything in this world that is truly certain?"
"Well... then I'll trouble you... but..."
"But...what?"
"Are you sure this young lady from the Ye family is willing? Will she turn against my beloved daughter?"
"Of course I'm sure. Not many people from the Ye family died. If she really didn't want to, she wouldn't be lying here and suffering like this!"
"Alright... you decide everything. Once this is accomplished, if my beloved Nuzhen can successfully ascend to the upper realm, I, Qin, will give her the entire Penglai Immortal Pavilion as a gift!"
"That's straightforward! I knew the Pavilion Master was a perceptive person!"
The scholar smiled and stretched out his sleeve, and a very ancient bronze tripod flowed out.
When the ancient tripod flowed out, the scholar raised his chin and the leader of Penglai Pavilion retreated quietly.
A look of satisfaction appeared on the scholar's face. Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and a strong wind blew up in the room, and a curtain was lifted.
Du Fang suddenly froze.
It is not surprising that there is a bed in this slightly shabby wooden house. What is surprising is that there is a naked woman lying on the bed, as white as jade.
The woman had long black hair that covered the most important parts of her body.
But just on top of her perfect body, there was a black bulge, like an earthworm, winding around from her chin to her navel.
It's stunning at first glance, but terrifying upon closer inspection.
There wasn't a trace of worldly evil in the scholar's eyes as he looked at the woman. He reached out his hand and gently caressed every part of the woman's body.
The woman was sleeping peacefully, completely unaware of what was happening on her body.
Then, the scholar sighed, one of his arms turned black in an instant, and his fingertips flicked the woman's belly, but his body suddenly shook violently.
His body flew backwards.
It was as if a huge force from the black earthworm scared him away.
Just like that, the flesh on the scholar's face began to crack, just like chapped skin and dry riverbed.
But no blood came out.
The scholar coughed twice, his expression returning to normal, and then he placed his hand on his chest and sighed:
"He is indeed the one who inherits the energy of heaven and earth, a one-of-a-kind person with the destiny of heaven and earth. No wonder he is the most likely peak powerhouse to become an ascended immortal in this life. Even if his Dao body is destroyed, the remaining idle immortal power will be so terrifying!"
As soon as I said this, I thought about the previous conversation.
Du Fang suddenly began to shake violently all over.
In the painting in that thatched cottage, the mother-in-law who was known as His Majesty the Underworld Emperor, Ghost Emperor Ye Liushuang, said it herself.
The little girl who brought him here also said that to inherit the power of the Ghost Emperor, one must first endure the pain she had experienced.
Countless very familiar words flooded into his head.
The only beloved daughter of the Pavilion Master of Penglai Fairy Pavilion, who inherited the energy of heaven and earth and was the one and only person with the destiny of heaven and earth, failed when she was about to ascend to heaven on the ascension platform that day.
After the failure of her ascension, the Pavilion Master's daughter's body was destroyed. The Pavilion Master was in great pain and told the world that if anyone could help her daughter ascend, she would give her the Penglai Immortal Pavilion.
So a mysterious man who came from afar advised the Pavilion Master that if he could find someone who was willing to dedicate his soul, flesh and blood to his daughter and who also possessed the "spiritual bones and jade marrow", he could help his daughter rebuild her body and ascend to heaven.
The mysterious man mentioned two conditions.
The first is voluntary, and the second is spiritual bone jade marrow.
The master of Penglai Pavilion at that time was overjoyed, so he spread manpower across the nine divine continents to find Ye Liushuang.
In an instant, Du Fang understood everything.
When he entered the golden coffin, the spirit of luck and the holy fire red lotus that he carried with him merged into everything, and he turned into Ye Liushuang.
He will also experience the pain that the Ghost Emperor once experienced.
