Chapter 491

Apart from this, what surprised him most was.

His spiritual soul had undergone a transformation, splitting off a small portion that became a separate entity!

The form of this separate entity was not himself.

But the shape of Taotie!

And not only was its appearance different, the Taotie spiritual soul also possessed Taotie's devouring talent!

With just a thought, he could devour all things, plunder the essence, qi, and spirit from others, and return a portion to himself, causing his cultivation base to surge!

"What a terrifying talent..."

Jiang Shan clenched his fists, and his long-dormant ambition surged back to life!

He had always known his talent was poor; even with diligence to compensate, he could never catch up to those gifted members of his clan.

But now, after obtaining the Taotie spiritual soul, he could grow strong in the shortest possible time!

Then, after Jiang Shan calmed his emotions.

He looked again at the ancient seal on the counter not far away.

With a slight thought, a streak of yuan force shot out, forming a phantom hand that drew the ancient seal before his eyes.

He slowly extended his right hand and gripped the ancient seal in his palm.

"Ren Wang Xi..."

Jiang Shan's eyes gleamed brightly, unable to suppress his exclamation.

After successfully fusing with the Taotie true spirit.

Through this ancient seal, he had unexpectedly gained a fragment of its legacy.

From this legacy, he learned the true name of the ancient seal.

Its name: Ren Wang Xi!

A powerful holy artifact of Saint Rank Mid-grade!

But it had suffered damage.

And over countless eons, it had preserved the Taotie true spirit.

Causing most of its spiritual essence to be lost.

It could no longer manifest any power, indistinguishable from an ordinary object!

Precisely because of this, it could not seal the Taotie's aura.

Which is why it had been detected by this humble Purple Mansion cultivator!

And if he wished to repair Ren Wang Xi, he would need not only Saint Rank Low-grade divine iron to restore its missing parts.

But also an extremely potent human way aura and royal way aura to stir its dormant spiritual essence and awaken it anew!

Yet both conditions were as impossible as scaling heaven for him!

Jiang Shan shook his head and sighed helplessly: "It seems this royal dynasty method cannot be used for now..."
