Chapter 196: Why Are There So Many People in Your Spiritual Space?

If there are two people in a spiritual space, the original owner and a powerful spirit, it could be explained that the powerful spirit has not yet decided to possess the body.

But having three people in your spiritual space is just too much, does it really need to be this crowded? Now including himself, there are four people in the spiritual space.

The Everlasting Celestial, inexperienced, had never heard of anyone’s spiritual space housing four souls. Yun Zhi closed her book and watched the Everlasting Celestial silently.

With a respect for the elderly, she let Everlasting Fairy strike first. Now, it was her turn.

“Even without the ariya-phala, I am still invincible!”

The Everlasting Celestial regained his confidence, brushing off his previous disheartened state, and engaged again. “Demonic Conquest of the World!”

Boundless black demonic energy surged from within the Everlasting Celestial, with numerous demonic heads writhing within it, emitting piercing screams that filled the entire spiritual space, rushing towards Yun Zhi.

Yun Zhi didn’t even look, she simply raised her jade arm, and the golden bell tied around her wrist chimed. Her voice was cool, like a fairy from a quiet lunar palace.

“Cloud Descending Palm.”

A palm strike was unleashed, and white clouds appeared behind Yun Zhi, swelling like the sea, engulfing the black demonic energy completely. The clouds then transformed into towering waves, sweeping over the Everlasting Celestial.

Everlasting Celestial felt like a mere pebble in the face of an overwhelming river, insignificant and powerless to resist.

“Netherworld Undying Flame!”

“Eighteen Golden Bell Shield!”

Red and black flames ignited from the Everlasting Celestial’s chest, spreading rapidly, forming a thin film over his skin. Eighteen golden bells thunderously descended, enveloping the Everlasting Celestial, layer upon layer, attempting to block the onslaught.

The waves surged relentlessly, mercilessly battering the Everlasting Celestial, shattering the eighteen layers of the golden bell shield. The red and black flames formed a thin film that evaporated when it met the sea, and the Everlasting Celestial bore the brunt of this impact, crashing into the edge of the spiritual space.

Yun Zhi rose from her seat, stepping lightly, with lotuses blooming with each step she took toward Everlasting Celestial.

“Stop, stop, I said stop!!” The Everlasting Celestial shouted harshly, his confidence shattered by the previous attack.

“Shatter Gold and Split Stone Palm!” A mist-formed giant hand descended from the sky, capable of smashing mountains, cracking the earth, and shattering treasures. It was a well-known and formidable attack in the cultivation world.

Yun Zhi simply waved her hand, and the misty giant hand dispersed like smoke. “Indestructible Bodhi Body!” Everlasting Celestial deployed his divine body.

Now, it seemed the tables had turned.

It should be Lu Yang’s Eldest Senior Sister who could easily suppress him! What a huge pitfall.

Everlasting Celestial realized that Lu Yang was not truly his follower; he had pretended to be bait, and all this while was just to lure him in.

Laughable that he thought he could possess a body perfectly suited for himself. Was the opponent a righteous undercover in the Undying Sect?

But Lu Yang’s performance in the competition did not seem fake.

Everlasting Celestial suddenly understood everything — Lu Yang was sent by another three demon sects! It all made sense now.

“Stop, stop, I give up, I’ll tell you anything you want, just spare my life!” Everlasting Celestial knelt down and begged, his mindset changing incredibly fast.

“Speak, who are you really! Why are you impersonating me!” Everlasting Fairy stopped examining the prototype of ariya-phala, excitedly running over, with Lu Yang following behind and Yun Zhi quietly listening.

All three wanted to know the answer. “I am...”

Everlasting Celestial drew out his words, capturing the attention of the three, then suddenly released all his power and turned to run, trying to break through the spiritual space barrier to escape this hellish place!

Thud—

Unsurprisingly, he hit the barrier solidly, unable to break through. Yun Zhi had anticipated this and had preemptively strengthened the integrity of Lu Yang’s spiritual space.

Everlasting Celestial’s tactic, which Daoist Non-Speaker had used many times before Yun Zhi, was ineffective.

“Still not being honest, Fairy Fist Technique!” Yellow Bean clenched her fists and pummeled Everlasting Celestial’s face like raindrops. “Not the face, not the face, I’ll really tell everything this time!”

Everlasting Celestial saw the light, realizing that admitting defeat early was better than anything, as the opponent was experienced and no tricks would work here.

“Speak, what is your name!” Yellow Bean boasted triumphantly.

“I‘m shameless.”

“Hmm? That’s quite self-aware.”
