After the Skyfall

Chapter 834 Hua Qing
Taking advantage of this free time, Li Yi decided to thoroughly investigate the secrets of this knife-shaped coin.

His primordial spirit shone brightly, and a wisp of his primordial spirit power cautiously probed into the knife coin. With just one touch, the knife coin, which was originally floating in mid-air, suddenly trembled slightly.

At the same time, a remnant soul hidden deep within the knife coin reacted.

"Damn it, you inherently evil Earthling are still alive." A familiar voice rang out.

Upon hearing this voice, Li Yi couldn't help but laugh: "You're still alive after all this time. It must be tough for you to last so long as a remnant soul. It seems that you also had some good fortune after the sword coin was repaired, which allowed you to merge the two remnant souls into one and extend your life."

"You evil Earthling, you clearly haven't read many books, yet you know quite a lot." The remnant soul sneered, "Moreover, you've had quite a few opportunities. You've achieved such cultivation in a short time. Now do you think you're qualified to explore the secrets of this knife coin after you've become stronger? I advise you to give up."

"This thing is too risky, you can't control it. I suggest you break through the void and throw this knife coin in. Keeping it in your hand will only bring great trouble in the future."

Li Yi said, "I don't want to waste any more words with you. To make a long story short, tell me what's so special about this knife coin. I might consider keeping your remnant soul alive. Otherwise, I will forcibly destroy your remnant soul, leaving you with absolutely no chance of resurrection."

"A remnant soul is merely a dying body clinging to life. How can you talk about resurrection? You can't threaten me," the remnant soul within the coin said. "And if you have the ability, feel free to try and see if you can completely annihilate me."

Li Yi could tell that this remnant soul was deeply hidden, and the knife-shaped coin was filled with terrifying energy. Under that light, his primordial spirit power could be destroyed at any moment.

Finding the other party is not an easy task.

"Who says a remnant soul has no chance of resurrection? Just offer incense and you can become a god in a few days. Then, you can use the false to cultivate the true and reunite your physical body. Before long, you will be able to reappear in this world."

At this moment, Li Yi casually revealed a plan to revive him, attempting to lure the other party into a trap.

"Your words are like farts, do you think I would believe them?" The remnant soul sneered, not falling for the trick.

Li Yi remained silent, but took out the interdimensional machine, placed three strange items on it, and then opened an interdimensional gate, connecting to the world of incense-based godhood. As soon as the interdimensional gate opened, a powerful force of incense energy immediately gathered.

His primordial spirit power received the power of the incense offering, and immediately underwent an incredible transformation, instantly condensing into a Dharma image, majestic and solemn, just like his true form.

Although the Dharma form was illusory and seemed to disappear at any moment, this incredible power left the remnant soul residing within the knife coin dumbfounded.

Can a single strand of primordial spirit power transform into a Dharma image?
If his remnant soul were to receive this incense offering, perhaps it could achieve the same result.

"Did you see that? The power of the incense offerings from all the people has endless uses; it can even defy fate," Li Yi said, before closing the interdimensional gate.

Soon the incense's power was extinguished, but his primordial spirit power remained. However, as time passed, the incense began to slowly dissipate, and it wouldn't be long before he was reduced to his original form.

Despite its flaws, the remnant soul knew very well that as long as the incense offerings continued, it could exist in the world indefinitely. It could even, as Li Yi said, use the false to cultivate the true, and before the incense offerings were extinguished, cultivate again to make up for its defects and be completely resurrected.

"I never imagined that you, this evil Earthling, would actually find such a peculiar world. The way of incense offerings is truly incredible. I am really unlucky. If I had known about such a world before I died, I would never have ended up like this." The remnant soul sighed.

He then added, "If you can revive my remnant soul, I can tell you the secret of the knife coin."

"I'm not asking you for a favor now. If you want to be resurrected, you need to show sincerity and beg me. You need to demonstrate your value and impress me so that I'm willing to help you be resurrected. If we part ways, you'll lose your life, while I'll only lose some insignificant information. In the end, the knife coins will still end up in my hands." Li Yi didn't want to make any promises. For him now, the existence of knife coins was just icing on the cake.

If you really can't figure it out, losing it won't be a loss.

Upon hearing this, the remnant soul within the knife coin fell silent for a moment. Clearly, he understood that he had no room for negotiation. Faced with the opportunity for resurrection, he could no longer be as assertive as before.

After all, if one can live, who would willingly choose to vanish into nothingness?

"You're right. I do need your help now. If you can repair this knife coin, I won't mind telling you some secrets. As for what will happen to me in the future, I can only gamble on that." The remnant soul realized reality and sighed.

Li Yi said, "That's right. One should be more sincere. To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that you, this evil bastard, helped me a few times before, I wouldn't even have given you this chance. Who knows if the first thing you'll do after you recover will be to seek revenge on me? I haven't forgotten that when I first started cultivating, I almost died at your hands."

"Don't worry, I have many enemies, and you're not among them for my revenge." The remnant soul inside the knife coin said, "Since you want to know the secret of this knife coin, then I will guide your primordial spirit into the depths of the knife coin so that you can see this thing clearly."

"Don't resist. Your primordial spirit is very powerful. This old man's remnant soul doesn't want to die."

talking.

A faint gravitational force appeared around Li Yi's primordial spirit power.

Li Yi did not resist, because the pulling force was indeed very weak, and he only needed to exert a little force to break free.

Following this pulling force.

Li Yi's primordial spirit avoided the layers of precious light on the knife-shaped coin and explored its depths. It was indeed extraordinary inside, containing a universe within itself, forming its own space. However, this was not surprising, as many treasures are self-contained.

However, this space was filled with countless crystalline lights, which drifted around and contained a deadly danger. If he touched them, his primordial spirit power would immediately be reduced to ashes.

As Li Yi ventured deeper into this space, he saw a remnant soul.

Although it is complete in form, it is ethereal and elusive, covered with cracks, as if it is about to collapse and perish at any moment.

"Old Biden, we've finally met. You've been hiding really well." Li Yi grinned, but there was a hint of gritted teeth in his expression.

"You're still so uncultured, greeting me like this when we meet. Let me tell you my real name. My name is Hua Qing, also known as Emperor Hua Qing. You can call me Hua Qing," the remnant soul said calmly.

“You are Emperor Huaqing? I am Taiyi Tianzun.” Li Yi said, “If you were really that capable, you wouldn’t have been robbed after your death. Moreover, judging from the size of your tomb, it’s very ordinary, just like an ordinary person after death.”

“That grave wasn’t erected by me; it was erected by a farmer when I was dying,” the remnant soul said. “That farmer didn’t know the value of things and buried my treasures with me as ordinary objects. It was only because I was dressed in fine clothes that grave robbers came and dug up my grave and dumped my body.”

He offered an explanation for what happened back then.
