Ruoyuan looked at the boy with kindness, but his eyes seemed to be looking at a toy, or perhaps the image he longed for, rather than a junior.

Now he can say whatever he wants, because soon she will be able to sense his vibrant life force.

Wei Tu stood by the bed. In their eyes, the boy was already a sitting duck, so they didn't care about his arrogant act of standing up. After all, who would want to mess with someone who was about to become a walking corpse?

To have one's body belong to another, to become a lonely soul in this vast world, is probably more tragic than being worse off than being dead.

Despite feeling somewhat guilty before, Ran Xinxue is now somewhat relieved that her talent wasn't enough to be chosen.

Wei Tu looked down at Ruo Yuan, a relaxed smile on his face as if he felt nothing at all, and the sadness he had felt before seemed to have completely torn away his disguise.

"Ancestor, how many years can you use one of your bodies?"

"..."

The question uttered by the smiling boy was like a thunderclap from a clear sky, making everything that had seemed normal just moments before appear eerie.

Ran Xinxue could hardly believe what she was hearing.

The smile on Ruoyuan's face was fading, as if it had frozen.

"What did you say? I don't think I understood..."

Ruoyuan practically forced out those words.

Wei Tu smiled. The handsome smile of the white-robed youth could usually be mesmerizing, but at this moment, it made them feel a sense of panic, as if they were caught off guard by an unexpected accident.

He smiled, raised his head, and let out a long sigh, seemingly with some emotion.

"For 1,500 years, you haven't ascended to the Divine Realm. How many innocent bodies have you had to sacrifice to keep you alive until now... You've failed time and time again, but you haven't given up. You refuse to die a peaceful death. Old man, it seems that becoming an immortal is really important to you."

The other party's casual words almost revealed the cruel truth of the past 1,500 years.

How long has the Immortal Continent existed? Almost ten thousand years.

How long has the Yuanjian Sect existed? It seems to be a distant number. Countless people have died in the long river of time. The step from the God-Gazing Realm to the Tribulation Transcending Realm is an insurmountable chasm for many.

To this day, no one has been able to devise a method with absolute certainty of breaking through to the Divine Realm. The only way is through continuous attempts, relying on luck, and taking a gamble with all one's talent.

It is precisely because it is so hard to obtain, so hard to reach, and even has a probability of less than one in ten that so many people are obsessed with it.

Many people have gone astray, all in an effort to obtain that inexhaustible power.

I long for those four words.

May you live as long as the heavens.

Ran Xinxue was filled with doubt and uncertainty. She was even prepared to strike instantly. Things had come to this point, and if the old woman made a mistake, she wouldn't survive either.

Ruoyuan, however, seemed quite calm, merely squinting as he observed the young man.

"You know quite a lot, what else do you know?"

Wei Tu smiled and said, "I also know that this should be the last time you think it's going to happen, so you didn't hesitate to announce your own death because you think you'll succeed this time."

"Success in what way?"

"Possession, a complete possession, shedding the aging body and replacing it with a younger, more talented one. Use your experience to start cultivating from scratch, and then break through to the Divine Realm in one fell swoop. You feel that the reason you haven't succeeded before is because you can't bear to give up your previous realm, and you can't do the opposite of destruction. So you have to go all in and burn your bridges."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Ruoyuan laughed, her voice no longer weak and feeble, making it clear that she still had plenty of strength left.

Do you think you'll have a chance?

Ruoyuan seemed to understand what Wei Tu was about to do.

She didn't admire the boy's courage, but was just a little curious about where he knew these things.

Wei Tu nodded.

“Your current cultivation level is no longer at the God-Gazing Realm because you know my body can't handle that level, so you gave up on it. You're probably at the Dragon-Slaying Realm now.”

"Hehehe...where did you get all this information from?"

Ruoyuan raised the crucial question. She was just curious, but also worried that it might cause unforeseen complications. As for this seemingly confident young man... she didn't take him seriously.

He immediately knelt down on the ground upon seeing the fresh snow.

"Ancestor! This disciple absolutely did not reveal a single detail!"

The reason she knelt down was because Ran Xinxue felt that even if the young man knew everything now, it wouldn't change the outcome. She was only worried that the old woman might suspect her and try to get rid of her.

In short, neither of them really takes the boy with all the earth-shattering secrets seriously right now.

There's no need for that.

Before Ruoyuan could speak, Wei Tu spoke up.

"I don't need to tell you this..."

"Then what do you want to tell me, young man?"

"There's only one thing I need to tell you, old man, you should have died long ago."

After saying that, to Ran Xinxue's astonishment, the boy walked over to the other person's bedside and reached out his hand toward Ruoyuan's head.

Ruoyuan wasn't afraid; instead, he revealed a strange and eerie smile.

When the boy's palm touched her face.

Her voice rang out.

"It's too late. It was too late when you decided to take the last bit of 'inheritance' from me. Your body belongs to me now."

As soon as those words were spoken.

A sound as if the sky were about to collapse appeared in the boy's mind.

Her voice, filled with enjoyment and even pleasure, seemed to resonate deep within Wei Tu's heart, no... in his very soul.

“Wei Tu…do you know what becoming an immortal represents? It is the true path. In front of an immortal, the so-called God-Gazing Realm is nothing but an ant.”

Ran Xinxue didn't know what had happened; all she knew was that the boy in front of her had suddenly become lost in thought.

It was as if his eyes had lost focus, and his movements were like those of a puppet, as if he couldn't move an inch.

Ran Xinxue sighed and shook her head.

“Wei Tu, the moment you saw the file, the secret technique of possession was already irreversible. As long as she has a thought… she will quickly take over your body. It’s truly foolproof.”

I wouldn't say I regret it, but perhaps I feel a little sorry for it.

She just didn't like this boy much.

Looking at Wei Tu's blank expression, she knew that some things had already taken effect, and perhaps he would still have one last struggle.

But how could he possibly defeat this ancient monster who's over 1,500 years old...?

As she was thinking that.

"Snapped!!"

Ran Xinxue suddenly witnessed an unbelievable scene, one that Wei Tu shouldn't be able to do now.

Blood and flesh were flying everywhere, splattering in all directions.

The boy's hand crushed Ruoyuan's head!

"What are you doing!!"

Ruoyuan's somewhat pained voice echoed in the boy's soul.

His face, which had previously appeared blank, now displayed a strange smile.

"Old man, you can't go back now." PS: The old monster didn't appear much before, so we need to add more scenes.

93. The report and the peach blossoms bloom together (Part 3)

Ruoyuan has indeed fallen into a strange situation.

The original body that could contain his soul was destroyed in an instant by this boy.

She could only quickly use the magic array constructed from the dossier to penetrate the boy's soul, then rapidly take over his body, gradually eroding his entire soul until she became the complete master of his body.

This will be a long process, which was her initial thought.

But when the decision was actually 'forced' upon her, she suddenly felt uneasy.

A rare sense of unease.

Even though it's her only option now, she finds it to be a dangerous one.

There were no other options; this was the only way.

Ruoyuan's entire soul, aided by the foreshadowing laid earlier, entered the unexpectedly spacious and empty spiritual platform of the young man.

Once inside, all her previous unease seemed to disappear; she felt at ease here.

Her youth and talent fueled her passion.

The thought of possessing such a powerful young body, as if the path to the Great Dao was just around the corner, drove Ruoyuan almost to madness.

For so many years, I've been lying in bed, never even leaving the house, just waiting for this moment!

To reappear openly and honestly in front of everyone, and do what I want to do.

At the summit, you can reach out and touch the sky!

That's the feeling—because of youth, it feels like the future is entirely in your grasp, a feeling I haven't experienced in many years.

She couldn't help but laugh wildly in Wei Tu's mind.

"Young man, what are you going to do now? Do you want to smash your own brain too?"

In Ruoyuan's eyes, Wei Tu's previous actions were just a helpless outburst of anger. The matter was already settled, and there would be no surprises... So let him vent his anger. After all... since an uninvited guest like himself had taken up residence in his body and mind, he should be a little more magnanimous.

Then came the boy's voice.

"Heh... Does the old ancestor seem quite relaxed?"

"Of course it's easy, Wei Tu... Do you know what this feels like? Do you know what it feels like for someone who hasn't seen the light of day for over a decade, someone who, in order to maintain a facade, can't even get out of bed and walk a few steps?"

"How does it feel?" the boy seemed to still have the energy to ask.
