Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start

"The time has come, let us become one..."

"Hey, what's going on?"

"This...is not good..."

"Do not……"

"..."

On the second level of the pagoda, Mo Juren sat cross-legged, his expression unusually calm.

As he had anticipated, the moment the man in the green robe entered his consciousness, the auxiliary device immediately captured it and added it to its resource library.

The whole process went exceptionally smoothly, and the other party had absolutely no ability to resist.

He had no doubts about this result. Just think of the Xuanming Fairy of the past, an ancient true spirit-level being, who was also unable to resist it?

Let alone the man in the green robe, who is not an immortal, even if he is, there would probably be no exception.

With another thought, a phantom figure reappeared, undoubtedly the man in the green robe, but his confident expression had been replaced by utter shock.

Even now, he still can't believe how something that seemed so certain could have turned out this way.

Not only did the possession attempt fail, but it also seems that he has lost his freedom!
This...what on earth is going on?

Mo Juren didn't disturb the other party. Instead, he leisurely took out a tea set and then began to brew tea.

After an unknown amount of time, a refreshing aroma of tea wafted out, finally startling the bewildered man in the green robe. He turned around abruptly, his expression growing increasingly incredulous.

"Who...who exactly are you?" Everything was too surreal, like a dream, causing the man in the green robe to tremble as he spoke.

"Who am I?" Mo Juren chuckled.
Before answering your question, could you please introduce yourself? May I ask how I should address you?

"Just call me Chi Yun." The man in the green robe sighed helplessly, but still gave his answer.

"Chi Yun, that's a nice name," Mo Juren nodded and continued.

"Then from now on I will address you as Senior Chi Yun. As for who I am, I don't really have any background. I'm just a tiny ant in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm."

"Ants?" Ancestor Chi Yun gave a wry smile.
"If you are an ant, then what am I? A clown you're just playing with?"

"It's not so much a joke. I was just lucky to have a trump card to save my life." Mo Juren sighed slightly. Although he was the one who had the last laugh this time, he was actually very lucky. It was only because the other party took a fancy to his body and had the idea of ​​possessing it that he was doomed by now.

"What kind of trump card could have such incredible power? Although my soul is damaged, I shouldn't be completely powerless, right?" Ancestor Chi Yun asked again, somewhat unwilling to give up. Unfortunately, Mo Juren did not intend to explain and continued to drink his tea.

Seeing this, he immediately understood that the other party could not give an answer, and for a moment, his expression suddenly became somewhat dejected.

From being the one who controlled fate and could easily decide the life or death of others, the situation has suddenly reversed, and now he has become the one being controlled.

The enormous difference was something that even with his powerful mental state at the Tribulation Transcending level, he still found difficult to accept.

This is the most frustrating part. Now that things have come to this, he can't simply refuse to accept it; he no longer has the power to decide his own fate.

He could clearly sense that his soul had been completely controlled by some incomprehensible mysterious rule, and there was no possibility of turning things around.

He had once reached the level of transcending tribulation and ascending to immortality, and was no stranger to the laws of heaven and earth, but the mysterious rules in his soul were even more profound than the laws themselves, and were completely elusive.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh again, and at the same time became even more curious about the man in front of him.

What is the background of this person? Why would they possess such incomprehensible methods?
If even someone at his level finds this so difficult to understand, one can only imagine how incredible it must be. Could it be that the other party is a true reincarnation of an immortal?
Only in this way can it be explained; otherwise, no matter how powerful the opponent is, a junior who is only at the Nascent Soul stage could not possibly be his opponent, even if he is just a remnant soul.

Unfortunately, the other party was unwilling to offer an explanation, so everything had to be kept to oneself.

"Since things have come to this, I accept my fate. What do you intend to do with me?" Gathering his thoughts, Patriarch Chi Yun asked with a dejected expression.

"Why take action?" Mo Juren shook his head slightly.

"That's settled then. Senior, you will stay by my side from now on. Perhaps one day you will be able to possess my body again."

"You're actually willing to give me the chance to possess another body?" Ancestor Chi Yun looked slightly surprised, but quickly realized something and shook his head.

"I am very pleased that you have this intention, but unfortunately, I am no longer able to possess another body."

"You mean we can't possess another body, senior?" Mo Juren was taken aback. Before he could ask, the other party offered an explanation.
"The 'Ten Directions Heavenly Blood Refining Array' originated from the ancient witch clan. It is a forbidden array and naturally has many drawbacks. Even if a soul has been cleansed by this array, it must complete the possession within three days, otherwise there will be no chance."

"There are such restrictions?" Mo Juren looked surprised, then suddenly seemed to remember something and reminded him again.
"I remember you mentioned before that you had prepared another body. Wouldn't it be perfect to use it for possession now?"

"That body is indeed suitable, but..." At this point, Ancestor Chi Yun suddenly smiled helplessly.
"Having noticed your condition before, I decided to make use of it and threw the prepared body into the blood pool to become nourishment for the blood sacrifice."

"Throw it into the blood pool?" Mo Juren was stunned and speechless. You're quite frugal, not wasting anything. Now you regret it, don't you?

Without this body, only the ones outside remain, but apart from Fairy Phoenix Feather, the others have long since died out and are no longer suitable for possession.

"What if one were to switch to the path of ghost cultivation?"

"It is possible, but the path of the ghost is extremely difficult and has very high requirements for the aptitude of the soul. I am not very confident that I can succeed or how far I can go."

"It's good that he can continue cultivating." Mo Juren breathed a sigh of relief. He had finally obtained such a high-level soul, so he naturally wanted to use it. It would be best if he could continue to cultivate and grow, otherwise it would be a waste of his efforts.

No, it wasn't a complete waste. The other party could have directly refined it into Xuan Yin Liquid, but he didn't want to do that unless absolutely necessary, as it would be too wasteful.

Mentioning the Mysterious Yin Liquid, he suddenly thought of something:

"By the way, something strange happened before we entered the secret realm. There used to be a special race called the Ice Soul Clan in the forbidden area outside the secret realm, but for some reason they suddenly disappeared. Is this related to you?"

"It's them!" Ancestor Chi Yun nodded slightly, then said.

"The birth of those Ice Soul Clan members was originally related to me. They were deliberately cultivated by the split soul I left outside back then, with the purpose of being useful one day. Until recently, the time came for me to break the seal, and the split soul directly captured them all, then refined them into soul liquid and integrated them into the core of the great formation."

During the blood sacrifice, my soul was constantly damaged, and it was only thanks to the timely repair of these soul fluids that I was able to persevere.

"Soul Liquid!" Mo Juren was stunned. If it could repair soul damage, wouldn't that be the same as the Profound Yin Liquid? So the Ice Soul Clan really could refine the Profound Yin Liquid?

In an instant, he suddenly became overjoyed. If this were true, wouldn't it mean that he could actively cultivate the Ice Soul Clan and that the Profound Yin Liquid would be available in an endless stream?
"Tell me more about this Ice Soul..." Mo Juren was about to ask further when his expression suddenly changed, and he stopped, turning to look out the window.

"I previously 'begged' you to do your best to save those two lives. How are they now?"

"The two you mentioned should be fine. In fact, because of my deliberate guidance, their potential was only overdrawn by about 70%, and their fundamentals were not completely damaged."

Therefore, as long as enough time and resources are spent, one's original cultivation level can still be restored, but there will be no possibility of further improvement in the future.

However, it was precisely because of this that the other eight people bore an even greater burden, not only exhausting their potential but also nearly depleting their own lives, making it almost impossible for them to survive.

"I see!" Upon hearing that the Cave Heaven Rat King and Xuanjin Sanren were not dead and that their cultivation could even be restored, Mo Juren immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

As for the other eight powerful alien beings, he didn't know them at all. He didn't care whether they lived or died. In fact, from the perspective of interests, it would be better if these beings died. Firstly, they would no longer be able to threaten him in the future, and secondly, their treasures would all fall into his hands.

The treasures of eight Nascent Soul Realm experts! One can only imagine the sheer number and the quality of those treasures.
The thought sent a shiver down his spine; this time, he had truly struck it rich.

Thinking of this, he could no longer contain himself and immediately said:
"Take me out of here."

"Very well!" Ancestor Chi Yun roughly understood the other party's thoughts. He immediately waved his arm, and a blood-red light spread out, directly enveloping the two of them. In the next instant, they appeared outside the pagoda.

"This is the Nine Li Tower, a supreme treasure of the witchcraft path. Although it is not included in the Chaos Myriad Spirits Ranking, its power in shielding heavenly secrets is comparable even to some high-grade Tongtian spiritual treasures."

Furthermore, this treasure possesses the power to trap enemies, and can even activate the powerful array contained within to suppress and kill them. It is absolutely a rare treasure, and one of my few trump cards. If you like it…”

"Another secret formation of the Witch Clan, and another supreme treasure of the Witch Clan. It seems that you have a deep connection with the ancient Witch Clan! As for this treasure, I can't use it even if you give it to me. You should keep it for yourself." Mo Juren said meaningfully, then ignored him and flew straight into the formation.

First, the Cave Heaven Rat King and Xuanjin Sanren carefully investigated and found that he was indeed still alive, which put their minds at ease.

Next came the 'harvest', and without hesitation, he flew towards another altar nearby.

After a thorough examination to confirm that the person had no life force, they unceremoniously collected the storage magic item the person was carrying.

Then came the second and the third. He was very fast, and soon he had 'harvested' them all.

And just as Ancestor Chi Yun had guessed, these eight people, who came from different races and were the pinnacle beings of the far north, had all perished.

As he passed by Mu Bingyun, Mo Juren couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He had some impression of this woman before, but that was all, and he couldn't care less about her.

The human and demon races and the wood race are mortal enemies. If they were in each other's shoes, they would probably not show any mercy either.

In addition, the two spirit race members, Xue Lingzi and Ming Xuzi, transformed directly into two extraordinary treasures as their life force gradually dissipated: a blood-red round bead and a pitch-black mirror.

These two treasures are clearly extraordinary, but unfortunately, their inherent essence has been completely exhausted, causing dense cracks to appear on the surface of both the bead and the mirror.

Apart from the fact that the materials were acceptable, these two rare treasures were practically worthless.

However, the storage treasures they carried contained a large number of valuable items, which somewhat made up for it.

Besides the treasures, he also obtained several spirit beast rings. However, it was also a pity that the spirit beasts were bound to their masters by life and death, and the spirit beasts could not live on their own after their masters died.

Suddenly, a thought struck him: he remembered the Moon-Swallowing Rat from before. Since they parted ways, he had never seen it again since entering this space.

He immediately looked at Ancestor Chiyun and asked his question, but the answer he received left him speechless. Just like the body that the other party had prepared, they had all been thrown into the blood pool.

The other party also gave a special explanation: the bloodline of the Moon-Devouring Rat is extraordinary, and merging into the blood pool can improve the quality of the blood, which is of great benefit to blood sacrifice.

Not only the Moon-Devouring Rat, but long before the blood sacrifice, he had forcibly extracted all the spirit beasts of the Fusion Realm experts and thrown them all into the blood pool.

"What about Chi Yan? Did you kill him too?" Upon hearing the other party's explanation, Mo Juren quickly asked again.

"You're talking about that woman's spirit beast, right? Don't worry, I deliberately left that one untouched." Chi Yun shook his head slightly, but these words only made Mo Juren more puzzled.

"You deliberately excluded him during the blood sacrifice, and mentioned that he was of great use. Now you've even kept his spirit beast. What's going on?"

"Now that things have come to this, there's no harm in telling you," Patriarch Chi Yun sighed.

"The reason for keeping the other party is twofold: firstly, the number of offerings is sufficient and they are not needed; secondly, they are of great use. As for their specific function, it is nothing special. I have examined them and found that they possess the extremely rare 'Primordial Immortal Body' in the cultivation world. If one can cultivate with them, it will bring unimaginable benefits to oneself."

As you know from the previous situation, even if I successfully possess someone, I will still suffer a great loss of vital energy. This kind of damage cannot be repaired by ordinary pills, and it will take an extremely long time.

However, if one were to cultivate with this woman, the situation would be vastly different; perhaps within a few years, one could recover to their original state.

"Dual cultivation! I see." Mo Juren suddenly looked enlightened, but he had never heard of the 'Tai Su Immortal Body' before.

Immortal Body!

The title alone is enough to show that he is extraordinary; an ordinary physique is far from being associated with the word "immortal".

"Don't underestimate this 'Tai Su Immortal Body'. It is one of the five most famous and secretive physiques in the cultivation world. It usually only exists in legends and is rarely recorded in many materials."

This physique contains a wisp of primordial truth. Cultivating with it not only restores one's cultivation level but also helps to accelerate the comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth, bringing immeasurable benefits to future cultivation.

Since I have failed to possess your body, this good thing is yours. If you are willing, I can help you.

What's even more remarkable is that this woman retains her primordial yin essence. I possess a special 'spiritual object' here; using it will absolutely make her 'willingly' become your Daoist partner, and once intercourse is complete, she will be utterly devoted and never betray me.

"This……"

As the two were speaking, not far away, the Phoenix Feather Fairy, whose eyes had been tightly closed, suddenly trembled, and her eyelids twitched slightly, but it was fleeting. (End of Chapter)
