The sword spirit absorbed the essence blood of the two False Purple Mansions with a joyful howl, growing ever stronger, taking another big step towards the Separation Phase. Soon, the essence blood within the two False Purple Mansions was completely drained by the sword spirit, leaving only two dried corpses.
With a wave of Wang Xiaoqiang's hand, the Penglai Immortal Sword flew out from the two dried corpses and returned to him. Wang Xiaoqiang tossed the Penglai Immortal Sword into the Suru Ring, then with a thought, he offered the two dried corpses to his pet beast and puppets.
The Black Demon and the Dragon Serpent Great Demon showed disdain for the corpses, even the Patterned Beast refused to eat the dry bodies. But Old Ge and Little Yin, despite not being too particular, seed to have developed a picky taste since they didn't consu the corpses. Surprisingly, the two hideous creatures approached Wang Xiaoqiang, as if they discovered sothing on him, showing greed and emitting ghostly cries.
"Hmm? What are these two ghostly creatures up to? Do they want to eat ?" Wang Xiaoqiang felt greatly surprised. Not to ntion Old Ge and Little Yin, even the Dragon Serpent Great Demon and Black Demon usually wouldn't dare show any disrespect to him, yet these fierce ghosts displayed it.
Seeing this, Wang Xiaoqiang was very annoyed and angrily shouted, "Beasts, have you tired of living?"
Old Ge and Little Yin were so frightened by Wang Xiaoqiang's shout that they shrunk into a ball, trembling with fear, but their eyes wouldn't leave Wang Xiaoqiang, still showing greed.
Wang Xiaoqiang was completely infuriated and was about to destroy these two fierce ghosts, but then he saw Old Ge and Little Yin pointing at his body, wailing incessantly,
The two fierce ghosts were forrly humans turned into ghosts, so they retained human intelligence, but after becoming ghosts, they couldn't speak human language, only emit ghostly cries, thus creating so communication barriers with their master.
Seeing this, Wang Xiaoqiang realized sothing strange was going on and stopped his hand. Then, the Dragon Serpent Great Demon approached him and said, "Master, these two claim they can absorb the death qi within your body..."
"Uh..." Wang Xiaoqiang was taken aback, then saw Old Ge and Little Yin nodding heavily in confirmation, feeling both surprised and delighted,
In the last fortnight, he had learned about the Grim Reaper while trying to expel the death qi within him, knowing that the Grim Reaper was also a ghost cultivator, albeit a high-level one. The Grim Reaper cultivated through death qi, and the black aura invading his body was death qi, which was extrely dreadful and difficult to remove once it invaded.
"Hmm, as the saying goes, 'Only the person who tied the bell on the tiger's neck can take it off,' it seems only the Grim Reaper or a ghost cultivator can expel this death qi. Old Ge and Little Yin are ghost cultivators, so they might be able to expel the death qi within ..."
Thinking of this, Wang Xiaoqiang extended his hands, saying to Old Ge and Little Yin, "Co, absorb it..."
Old Ge and Little Yin, overjoyed, each bit onto Wang Xiaoqiang's hands and began drawing the death qi from his body,
Due to the low level of the ghost cultivators Old Ge and Little Yin, they could only use this primitive thod, whereas if it were the Grim Reaper, they could expel all the death qi from Wang Xiaoqiang's body with a gesture from afar.
Yet, primitive as it was, this thod was effective. With the continuous drawing by the two fierce ghosts, the death qi within Wang Xiaoqiang finally moved towards his arms, eventually entering his hands and being absorbed by the two fierce ghosts until it was fully within them.
The two fierce ghosts were panting from exhaustion, but they scrambled fiercely to absorb, as this could not only help the master expel the death qi but also allow them to grow from absorbing it.
Fierce ghosts refined their techniques using corpse qi, but corpse qi's quality couldn't compare to death qi. While this amount of death qi might seem insignificant to the Grim Reaper, it was a treasure to the two fierce ghosts, capable of greatly enhancing their cultivation base after absorption.
A short while later...
The death qi within Wang Xiaoqiang had been completely absorbed by the two fierce ghosts. Letting go of Wang Xiaoqiang's hands, they sat suspended in the air, beginning to refine and transform the absorbed death qi, with their ghostly bodies bulging eerily as they practiced the breathing technique.
Wang Xiaoqiang, the Patterned Beast, the Dragon Serpent Great Demon, and the Black Demon watched the two fierce ghosts cultivate, finding their appearance rather strange.
"Master, while this death qi is a nightmare, a shadow, tornt, and pain for you, it's a great fortune for these two. After they refine this death qi, their strength will likely increase significantly," said the Dragon Serpent Great Demon.
"Hmm, among you, these two are the weakest in strength. If their strength increases, your overall power will also improve. Good, very good!" Wang Xiaoqiang exclaid joyfully.
Finally, Old Ge and Little Yin finished refining the death qi they had absorbed internally, significantly boosting their strength. Though still not reaching the level of the Dragon Serpent Great Demon and the Black Demon, they closed the gap considerably, so when they stopped ditating and stood up, they howled excitedly, though their cries were still unpleasant and terrifying.
Fortunately, Wang Xiaoqiang had gotten accustod to their cries, so he found them less unsettling, and seeing their excitent, he knew their strength had indeed grown substantially.
Moreover, with the death qi absorbed, Wang Xiaoqiang felt much lighter, and his power restored to the Great Luo Golden Immortal Fifth Liquid Realm. It was truly a cause for celebration.
"Alright, everyone into the ring," Wang Xiaoqiang said, collecting the puppets with a thought, then continued flying towards the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's abode.
At last, he reached that Holy Realm of Spirit Mountain, saw the Tai Chi Diagram ford by mountains and rivers, saw those two lakes, and with the Heavenly Eye opened, saw the palatial structures beneath the lake...
This ti, however, without soone leading him, Wang Xiaoqiang couldn't enter the Mountain Protection Array. Yet, he knew that once soone approached the array, the Biluo Heavenly Emperor would definitely notice, so he waited patiently for a while.
Indeed, soon enough, the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation flew out from a lake and appeared by Wang Xiaoqiang's side, asking, "Little Qiang, what brings you here?"
"Heavenly Emperor Lin, I boldly co to request the fulfillnt of a promise." Wang Xiaoqiang clasped his hands in salute as he spoke.
"A promise, what promise?" feigned ignorance, the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation said.
"The Heavenly Emperor once promised , that after finding the Grim Reaper, a dium-sized Spirit Gathering Array would be arranged at my Windrise Palace."
"Uh, I indeed forgot about this," said the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation, "Alright, I will arrange it for you now."
"Thank you, Heavenly Emperor." Wang Xiaoqiang bowed deeply in gratitude.
The Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation represented the will of the original, and the agreent of the incarnation signaled the consent of the original. As Wang Xiaoqiang hurried back to Windrise Palace with the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation, the essence consciousness was retracted from the two by the true Biluo Heavenly Emperor seated in the Biluo Palace, letting out a small sigh of relief.
