Chapter 187: Seeking Death (1/2)

As soon as the few drops of blood entered his body, a strange feeling arose from the sword cultivator clone.

It was a powerful and chaotic power that was completely different from spiritual qi.

Although these eight ghosts were lying in the name of gods, they were not lying. The few drops of blood that Jiang Li's clone had swallowed were indeed from the corpse.

In the past, their Black Lotus Divine Sect had relied on the corpse of that powerful humanoid creature to rise up.

Only they knew if the higher-ups of the sect really wanted to resurrect the corpse or had other intentions.

However, they had studied this corpse for countless years. While their understanding of it was deeper, they had also grasped some methods to steal power from it.

The murals of slaughter in the passageway, the blood that could make spiritual qi go chaotic, the weapons that could break through spiritual qi, and the few drops of blood of madness that could transform humans and inherit the power of chaos were all like this.

This kind of chaotic power seemed to be an irreconcilable enemy of the spiritual qi cultivation system. Not to mention the Great Mountain Region, even in the current and the Nine Provinces Continent, they had never heard of this kind of power.

After eliminating all kinds of possibilities and guesses, they felt that this thing was probably not a creature of the Nine Provinces.

Asura was something that some Black Lotus Divine Sect cultivators knew in their dreams after being affected by the power of the corpse.

As for the meaning behind the word Asura, they were still uncertain whether it was a name, a divine status, a race, or a world.

Jiang Li could sense that after drinking the few drops of blood, the effects of the tainted blood on the surface of his body seemed to have reduced greatly.

He tried to use the Spirit Surge Technique and carefully sent a trace of spiritual qi over.

As expected, the spiritual qi was no longer under his control like before. He was about to mobilize that trace of spiritual qi to remove the dirty blood on the surface of his body.

However, as soon as the spiritual qi was extracted from his Qi Sea, it encountered the chaotic power that was running amok in his body.

Bang!

The intense repulsive force instantly erupted. The reaction was even more intense than when he was tainted by the blood.

The trace of pure spiritual qi was quickly expelled. The reaction of the spiritual qi was also very intense, and it was directly detonated! A moment later, a small blood hole was directly blasted open on the surface of the clone's body.

Jiang Li was helpless. If he had more spiritual qi, his clone would be ruined on the spot. It seemed that spiritual qi was temporarily useless. He still had to wait and see.

In addition, it turned out that before eating this blood, he had to clear the spiritual qi in his body. Otherwise, he would be courting death.

Wu Shi must have applied blood on his body to achieve this effect.

If his clone had not been stopped at that time, Jiang Li would probably have found it difficult to find the true use of these few drops of blood.

”I've already consumed the blood, but I only have one body. Who wants to come in? If you don't decide, I'm leaving.”

More and more chaotic power surged out from his body. The clone's body was undergoing a huge change. Several huge bumps appeared all over his body and were quickly swimming under his skin.

All the bones, muscles, and internal organs in his body were restructuring. This process brought him pain that had reached the limits of his mind. His body could not help but twitch.

However, Jiang Li's expression remained unchanged. When he spoke to the eight evil spirits, he did not seem like a victim whose soul was about to be eaten.

It looked like he was offering alms from above.

That was because Jiang Li and the Parallel Mind were splitting the work. The first Parallel Mind would endure the pain while he controlled the body.

Jiang Li controlled his clone to clench his fist. His tightened fist told him that his weak body was being filled by another force.

The chaotic power was constantly expanding. Although it was still unfamiliar, it was better than nothing. At this rate, it would not be long before he could use this power to directly kill these eight ghosts.

However, these eight guys had a conflict.

”This person is mine. When I get out, I'll definitely find sacrifices to save you!”

One of the ghosts excitedly wanted to rush into the clone's body, but it was blocked by the other black fog.

”Wait, I can't give you this person!”

”What do you want to do! Move aside! I'm a Sacrificer! All of you have to listen to me!”

”Sacrificer? The Divine Sect has already been destroyed, we're already dead! You're still using your status as a Sacrificer to suppress us!”

”We agreed to let you possess that guy! But he's already dead! You can't blame anyone else for your bad luck!”

The eight ghosts started to argue with each other. They spoke one after another, and no one was willing to give in.

These eight ghosts had existed for a long time. Through the power of stealing the corpses, the aura on their bodies was quite good.

Moreover, they were all past cultivators and had a certain amount of spell techniques. It was hard to say how much their exact strength was, but they were probably slightly stronger than Qin Shuman and were probably comparable to Foundation Establishment cultivators.

The strongest of them was the bald, long-bearded ghost that called itself a Sacrificer.

Previously, it had forcefully seized the opportunity to possess Wu Shi, but that had already caused a lot of dissatisfaction.

Now that Wu Shi was dead, it was equivalent to losing its chance. It wanted to seize Jiang Li's clone for itself, but how could the other ghosts be willing?

The eight balls of black fog became more and more violent. On this side, Jiang Li had already stood up with the flying sword in hand. He tore off a clean piece of cloth from his body and wiped the dirty blood on the sword.

The weakened aura on the clone was quickly recovering. As long as he returned to his original level, he was certain that he could deal with them.

”Since you've decided not to come down, why don't you ask the person involved for his opinion?”

However, not only did Jiang Li not secretly accumulate strength, he even reminded them not to be busy with internal strife. He was still a living person here after all.

The eight ghosts that were biting each other finally recovered from the threat. They stopped biting their own kind and stared at the sword cultivator clone.

Jiang Li was utterly unfamiliar with the still surging force, so it could not be said to be hidden. They could clearly sense that if this continued, then the identity of the hunter and prey might change.

No matter how bad their relationship was, it was impossible for them to be willing to let the prey escape. If they let the sword cultivator recover his strength and get away, they would be really unlucky if he brought the sword cultivators of the Shu Mountain.

The Black Lotus Divine Sect at its peak could even be destroyed by the righteous path led by Shu Mountain. How could the few ghosts that remained survive?

”Shu Mountain's sword cultivators might be able to withstand it.”

”Then let's go together and rely on our own abilities!”

With Jiang Li's reminder, they quickly came to a consensus. They would eat Jiang Li's soul first and see if they could stuff all eight ghosts into one person.

As he spoke, the eight balls of black fog wrapped around each other and rushed into the body of the sword cultivator clone. Then, they sharpened their heads and crazily entered the consciousness of the clone.

The consciousness space of the Shu Mountain sword cultivator was the purest. At a glance, it was almost pure white.

Only in the middle was a flying sword wrapped in red flames. On the sword hilt was a small wine pot.
