Chapter 219: Soul Oath
The one-horned ghost king originally used to call himself "my king", but in desperation, he stopped using this title. In addition, because he wanted to ask for help, he also stopped using his title and changed it to me.
"Help? Help for what?" Qingyang was puzzled. The other party was just a remnant soul. What could he need help with? Moreover, my cultivation level is so low, and now I am trapped in the Drunken Immortal Gourd. There is a real person named Netherworld guarding me outside, so I can't get out even if I want to help.
The one-horned ghost king said: "Just now I felt a ray of ghostly energy on my little friend. It was precisely because of this ray of ghostly energy that I temporarily woke up. This ghostly energy seemed to have a great effect on my recovery. It’s very useful. I’d be very grateful if you could get some for me.”
Get some ghost energy? There is nothing in this Drunken Immortal Gourd. He must be going out to find the real person Netherworld. With his cultivation level at the sixth level of the Pulse Opening Realm, wouldn't he be courting death if he went out? What's more, I don't know much about this one-horned ghost king. What if he gets the ghost energy of the underworld, regains his strength, and bites me back? I don't want to help, but end up with a tragic end.
Qingyang hesitated, not knowing how to answer.
When the one-horned ghost king saw that Qingyang didn't speak for a long time, he couldn't help but become anxious and said: "Is there anything in trouble for you, little friend Qingyang? Could it be that you don't trust me?"
Although there were reasons for this, Qingyang couldn't say it out loud. He pondered for a moment, and just as he was about to speak, the One-horned Ghost King said directly: "I also know that it's hard to convince little friends with empty words. So, I can I make a spiritual oath here. As long as you help me, I will never do anything bad to you in this life, otherwise I will be punished by God."
The soul oath is a very magical spell that can only be performed by high-level monks. It is very binding on monks. After making a divine soul oath, traces will be left in the monk's soul. Once the oath is violated, there will be a backlash when practicing or making a breakthrough in the future. The breakthrough can range from failure to a breakthrough to stagnant progress, or from the worst to a deranged state. The foundation is completely destroyed and he becomes a useless person.
Of course, this binding force is only relative, but the cost of violating it is higher. If there are monks who really don't care about this, feel that they have no hope in this life, or feel that they can take a risk for the great benefit, it is not impossible.
But in general, the soul oath is still very practical. High-level monks do not trust each other and often use the soul oath to restrain them. The one-horned ghost king dared to put forward the conditions for making a soul oath for himself, at least there was no problem with his sincerity.
Thinking of this, Qingyang has decided to cooperate with this one-horned ghost king. It's not that he forgot his previous caution, but seeing that the Immortal Knocking Conference had already begun, he was stuck in the Drunken Immortal Gourd and couldn't get out, and he couldn't calm down to practice, which made people anxious.
Moreover, the food in the Drunken Immortal Gourd is getting less and less, and I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for much longer. There are some spiritual grains in the Drunken Immortal Gourd, but those spiritual grains have just sprouted and are still early to mature. I can't live on grass in the future, right?
Under the constraints of the soul oath, this one-horned ghost king should not have any evil intentions. If you cooperate with him once, you might be able to get some extra benefits. If you can use this to defeat the Netherworld Master, the harvest will be even greater. Maybe you can also use this to worship the Immortal Sect.
Qingyang hesitated for a moment and said: "Senior Ghost King is willing to make a divine soul oath. Naturally, I have nothing to say. It's just that my cultivation is low now and I am no match for that ghost monk."
Seeing that Qingyang's tone had relaxed, the one-horned ghost king was overjoyed and asked quickly: "What kind of ghost monk? Can you tell me?"
So Qingyang briefly told the general situation about Master Netherworld. Of course, Qingyang omitted the matter about the Drunken Immortal Gourd. He only said that he escaped to a hidden place and was blocked by Master Netherworld. The way out is blocked and there is no way to escape for the time being.
After listening to Qingyang's narration, the one-horned ghost king suddenly fell into silence. After a long time, he said: "You said that the ghost monk in the foundation building stage forcibly catalyzed the corpse of a monk at the ninth level of Qi Refining because his body was destroyed. As a corpse puppet, the soul lived in the corpse puppet. Later, he fought with the casual cultivators and used the simple refined soul to perform the method of corpse resurrection. He escaped from the siege of a large group of monks and almost died in the corpse puppet. In the hands of a monk at the ninth level of the Pulse Opening Realm?"
Qingyang nodded and said: "Exactly!"
The one-horned ghost king muttered: "The magic of simply refining the soul to resurrect the corpse should be the magic puppet technique commonly used by ghost monks. Forcibly catalyzing the corpse puppet to inhabit the soul will extremely damage the vitality, so the ghost monk and During the melee among the casual cultivators, the realm of the Yuan Shen was at the early stage of foundation building at best; after the corpse puppet was almost destroyed, and the Divine Puppet Technique was used, the realm of the ghost monk was at least at the early stage of Qi training; now his head has been chopped off , even if it is reconnected, the cultivation level will be greatly reduced, and it should not be difficult to deal with the monks in the late stage of opening the pulse. "
"For seniors, it is naturally not difficult to deal with the monks in the late stage of the Opening Pulse Realm. Unfortunately, I am only at the sixth level of Opening the Pulse Realm. There is a big gap in strength between me and the Netherworld Master. I was seriously injured by the opponent's palm before. ." Qingyang said.
The One-horned Ghost King pinched his beard, frowned and thought for a while, and said: "The cultivation level of the sixth level of Kaimai Realm is indeed a bit low, but there is a way. I have a secret method called Burning Blood Technique. This technique doubles the cultivator's power in a short period of time by boiling the body's essence and blood. The strength of the sixth level of Kaimai Realm cultivators is doubled. Even if they can't reach the combat power of the ninth level of Kaimai Realm, they are not much different. They should be able to fight with the netherworld real person."
Burning Blood Technique? Double the strength in a short period of time? There is such a magical technique? If such a spell is taken to other places, I'm afraid it will be snatched up by others, right? This senior One-horned Ghost King is really amazing. He casually took out such a powerful secret technique. This is when he lost a lot of memory. If he was not injured before, I'm afraid even the top cultivators in Jiuzhou Continent would not be able to compare with him, right? Qingyang couldn't help but be fascinated.
The secret method of Burning Blood Technique can be used as one's own trump card. If it is suddenly used at a critical moment, it will definitely achieve unexpected results. This cooperation is really worth it.
At this time, the One-Horned Ghost King said again: "Of course, this blood burning technique also has some flaws, especially it is extremely harmful to the body of the cultivator. Every time it is used, the essence and blood will be lost, and the spirit will be exhausted. It takes a long time to make up."
Such a powerful spell must have some limitations. If there are no such limitations, Qingyang will doubt whether this One-Horned Ghost King is deliberately deceiving him.
