Chapter 23 Possession
Day two.
On Yuanjie Peak, the spring sunshine is even brighter, and birds chirp incessantly on the branches, pecking at the petals of peach blossoms, crabapple blossoms, and other flowers.
A ray of golden light leaped out from the distant horizon, the morning light spilling out, bringing an even stronger sense of spring, making almost every inch of Jiang Yuan's body, inside and out, come alive.
It's also a good time to go out and gain experience.
Jiang Yuan exhaled a breath, the steam rising high and dispersing the rich spring atmosphere within Yuanjie Peak.
Fang Han descended from the sky, slowly landing on the ground, stepping onto the moss-covered bluestone, and remained motionless.
"Jiang Yuan, we can set off now."
"it is good."
Jiang Yuan smiled, raised his hand, and water mist surged in, enveloping him as he flew towards the air assembly line.
The Black Emperor Water Emperor Fist also includes techniques for aerial flight. Enveloped in water mist, it's like being swept away by flowing water, making it a flight method with considerable speed.
Huhu~
As Jiang Yuan flew, a beautiful woman waited in the air. She had a bewitching charm and wasn't afraid of Jiang Yuan. She even gave him a flirtatious wink.
"This is a powerful Asura I subdued in the magic crystal mine, named Fang Xiaolin."
Fang Han quickly explained from behind.
"Not bad." Jiang Yuan smiled, making Fang Han a little embarrassed. He did have other intentions in mind when he subdued this underground witch.
However, he would only do this without affecting his cultivation.
Jiang Yuan chuckled, but it was just a joke.
Although the underground witch is beautiful, she is also extremely vicious, and killing and disemboweling are common occurrences for her.
It's unreasonable to view this through the lens of pitiful witches from other worlds.
Here, she was merely a henchman recruited by Fang Han.
Outside the Feathered Gate.
Jiang Yuan lazily got up from the rattan chair and noticed that the surrounding environment had changed. Clouds and mist were flying by, and the wind was howling in the air. He was a little puzzled.
Has he died again, or has his spirit departed?
"You're awake, but weren't you dead? Why are you still sleeping?" Jiang Yuan wondered to himself.
When the monkey Jiang Yuan was around, he didn't sleep and pressured him every day, making him work hard to cultivate.
Now that Jiang Yuan has appeared and become even lazier than him, he is finding it hard to adapt.
"Although I am dead, my consciousness remains, so I still want to sleep and enjoy delicious food."
Jiang Yuan smiled and waved his hand, and the black mist transformed into a wooden table on which breakfast was laid out.
The black mist can transform into known objects, but like him, it cannot touch the outside world, nor can it be affected by it.
……
Okay, Jiang Yuan nodded. After all, Jiang Yuan was himself, and their desire for delicious food was the same.
The Feathered Gate is far from the ocean; even with Jiang Yuan and Fang Han's flying speed, it would take at least two days and two nights to reach it.
Therefore, they also need to stop and spend the night along the way.
night.
The lone moon hangs high in the sky. Jiang Yuan and Fang Han land on a mountain peak. Below the peak, there are villages gathered, with lights shining brightly and bonfires burning long.
It must be a festival celebration.
"There should be some good food over there," Jiang Yuan said, pointing towards the campfire with anticipation in his eyes.
Even though he's dead, it's not bad that he can eat delicious food from another world after he's gone.
"How will you eat?"
Jiang Yuan asked, and at the same time walked down the mountain, heading alone towards the village with the campfire.
"You offer incense for me, and I will consume your qi," Jiang Yuan said after a moment's thought.
He's a ghost, so it's normal for him to be able to consume air.
Jiang Yuan was speechless. Was he going to offer incense to himself?
But actually, Jiang Yuan still has to wait for him to eat before he can eat together in his memory.
The village bonfire was bustling with activity, as young boys and girls dressed in outlandish costumes held hands and danced excitedly around it.
Chicken legs, fruit, and other delicacies were beautifully arranged on the long tables around the perimeter for people to take as they pleased.
"Where did our distinguished guest come from?"
An elderly man with a kind face, led by a beautiful young woman, came over and asked with a smile.
"Coming from the other side of the mountain, I was captivated by the lively atmosphere here and became tempted to join in."
Jiang Yuan took out a piece of gold from his sleeve and handed it over.
A light immediately shone in the beautiful girl's eyes, and her gaze towards Jiang Yuan was so tender it seemed to overflow with tears.
The kind-hearted old man beamed with joy and quickly said, "Since our esteemed guest is pleased, please make yourself at home."
"I am the village chief of Wugui Village. You can just call me Village Chief Shui."
The village chief smiled and beckoned several young and beautiful girls to serve Jiang Yuan.
Each girl was extremely beautiful, dressed in outlandish clothes, revealing her white navel, and swaying with a unique allure.
They laughed and chatted. The slender, jade-like woman took Jiang Yuan's hand and led him to a long table. She knelt down and pinched his feet with her small hands, while a beautiful woman fed him strawberries with her delicate fingers.
"Is gold really that amazing?"
Jiang Yuan exclaimed, "After eating this strawberry, a satisfying sensation of bursting juice filled my mouth!"
It was as if this strawberry was the most delicious food in the world.
"Served by beauties and enjoying delicious food, this is the true way to cultivate immortality." Jiang Yuan tasted the strawberry, then spat it out; it was a stone.
His teeth are really strong; he bit the stone so hard it burst open.
At this moment, the previously bustling place fell silent.
The beautiful woman, the villagers, and the old man all stared at them with eerie, empty, and lifeless eyes. They all opened their mouths mechanically and woodenly, saying:
"Impossible! You're only a mere second-level Divine Power Realm cultivator. How could you possibly see through my illusion?"
"State your name!"
Jiang Yuan glanced at him sideways. "Do you think I'm stupid enough to reveal my real name when we're out in public?"
"Since you won't tell me, then I'll find out everything once I possess your body."
"Hahaha, I've been trapped here for 132 years, and finally I have a young body to possess!"
The village chief and his men laughed wildly, transforming into a series of figures that overlapped and formed the incomplete appearance of a Taoist priest.
He wore a Taoist robe with crystal chip patterns, and was missing hands, feet, eyes, mouth, and ears, like a Taoist with five deficiencies.
In an instant, the Five-Deficient Daoist lunged menacingly into Jiang Yuan's brow, accompanied by gusts of cold wind, howls of wolves and ghosts, and a darkening of the sky, as if a ghost king had been born.
Jiang Yuan raised his palm to try to stop him, but it seemed he couldn't stop him in time, and the Five Deficiencies Daoist entered his mind.
The Five-Deficiency Daoist sensed something was wrong, but he was too eager to live, so he remained in Jiang Yuan's mind, his presence eerie and menacing. Upon seeing Jiang Yuan's spiritual body, he pounced directly at it.
"Crystal divination, unique in all worlds, a glimmer of hope, the Crystal Possession Technique, seize it for me!"
Wu Que Dao Ren shouted, transforming Jiang Yuan's soul into his own appearance, making him look like a middle-aged Daoist with a kind face and a smile full of joy at being reborn.
"I'm alive! I'm alive! Hahaha!"
"Are you really alive?"
A calm voice interrupted him, asking a question.
Wu Que Dao Ren was startled, and then saw Jiang Yuan appear on the other side.
That's impossible. Jiang Yuan is here. Then who did he just possess?
Could it be that he... died again?
The moment this thought arose, the space around him churned and turned into a black mist.
The smile on Wuque Daoren's face remained, but his eyes dimmed, and he became a calm, solitary figure.
He said softly, "That's right, I'm actually already dead."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Five-Deficiency Daoist's life force was extinguished like a candle in the wind, and he died with his head hanging low.
With a wave of his sleeve, Jiang Yuan shattered the soul of the Five-Deficient Daoist, which then merged into his body, allowing him to freely retrieve a vast sea of memories.
