Chapter 169: You Have So Many Soul Returning Pills, What's the Harm in Giving Me One!

The two of them stared at Tang Qingming's face, then looked at each other, neither speaking for a moment.

Because both of them were stunned now.

Their CPUs had already exploded.

In Tang Qingming's hand, she was still holding her long sword that was white all over.

Looking at it this way, it was indeed Si Yuyan who had pulled out that sword, and then placed both the sword and Tang Qingming's corpse in this cave.

After a long silence, Jiang Xun looked at Si Yuyan and asked, "Why did you hide Tang Qingming's corpse here?"

"I, I've been thinking about it." Si Yuyan shook her head. "I only knew I hid something, I didn't recall that it was her."

"..." Jiang Xun was silent for another moment, then said, "So what now? Blow her up, or... resurrect her? Ask her?"

"Logically speaking, her Supreme Position was seized by Jun Tianling, so if you use a Soul Returning Pill to resurrect her, is she still a Saint? Probably not, right?"

Si Yuyan looked at Jiang Xun and said.

If she happened to be a Saint upon resurrection, Tang Qingming would definitely attack her and Jiang Xun.

"Probably not. She doesn't even have a soul left. You are a Saint after resurrection because your soul is still there and the Supreme Position is on the soul. As for her... she might drop to the Spirit Transformation Stage."

Jiang Xun said after pondering for a moment.

"If she's at the Spirit Transformation Stage, you have no problem subduing her, right?" Si Yuyan asked.

Jiang Xun nodded. If Tang Qingming were resurrected, she would most likely be at the Spirit Transformation Great Perfection, and for the current Nine Heavens Reversal Robe, attacks below the Void Refinement are ineffective against Jiang Xun, so he wasn't worried at all.

"Then, shall we resurrect her?"

Si Yuyan asked tentatively; after all, the Soul Returning Pill belonged to Jiang Xun.

Jiang Xun nodded, then punched the ice sphere.

Boom.

The ice sphere was unscathed, and Jiang Xun felt a bit awkward.

He raised the Liu Hong Sword again and slashed at the ice sphere over a dozen times.

Saint Grade, full power, over a dozen slashes.

The ice sphere was still unscathed.

"No, what the hell is this?"

Jiang Xun pointed at the ice sphere and said, "You condensed this ice sphere using the strength of a Saint?"

"I don't have an Ice Spirit Root, I can't do that." Si Yuyan shook her head.

"You should've said so earlier! Then this place wasn't made by you!" Jiang Xun wrapped his arm around Si Yuyan's head and gave her a push, feeling like he was dealing with a little fool.

Si Yuyan seemed to know it was her own fault, pursed her lips, and said nothing.

Jiang Xun, however, looked at his hand in disbelief, paused for a moment, then walked up to Si Yuyan and pinched her cheek.

"What are you doing?" Si Yuyan looked up at Jiang Xun and said, "It was my mistake, letting you push me once is enough, don't push your luck."

"You are a soul, why can my physical body touch you?"

Jiang Xun said while pinching Si Yuyan's cheek.

Si Yuyan was stunned, only then realizing something was wrong; her face hurt so much!

Si Yuyan hurriedly stepped back, moved her face away, and reached out to rub it: "Yeah, why can you touch me?"

"Tang Qingming's body was blown to that state, it's impossible for it to recover. So, the Tang Qingming inside here isn't Tang Qingming's physical body, but her soul. The ice sphere isn't preserving a corpse, but is a seal. In this space, souls can gain a physical form."

Jiang Xun looked around and said, "And the core of the Formation must be one of these ice flowers. Only by shattering the ice flower can the seal be broken."

Upon hearing this, Si Yuyan nodded: "But if you hit the wrong one, I think there will be traps. A trap set by someone at the Great Vehicle Stage, you probably can't withstand it, right?"

"Not just withstand, I'd be blown to smithereens, alright?" Jiang Xun rolled his eyes at Si Yuyan.

"But you just said she doesn't even have a soul left." Si Yuyan reacted and hurriedly said.

"Who knows? The facts are right before our eyes; her soul is right here." Jiang Xun pointed at the ice sphere. "Maybe the sword in her hand has some special ability that reshaped her soul or something."

"Then why don't you try breaking the formation?" Si Yuyan nodded in agreement upon hearing this and looked back at Jiang Xun.

But she found that Jiang Xun had already walked out of the cave.

"You try it!"

Jiang Xun shouted to Si Yuyan from outside the cave.

"?" Si Yuyan stood frozen in place.

"Anyway, your soul has materialized now. You try to see which ice flower can unlock the seal. If you happen to die in the process, don't worry, I'll resurrect you with a Soul Returning Pill."

Jiang Xun continued to shout.

"How many Soul Returning Pills do you have? Are there enough for me to survive?"

Si Yuyan pursed her lips upon hearing this.

"I just counted, there are forty ice flowers in total, and these are forty Soul Returning Pills. Feel free to smash them."

Jiang Xun took out forty Soul Returning Pills and placed them in front of him.

Seeing this, Si Yuyan widened her eyes: "Jiang Xun, you bastard! You have so many Soul Returning Pills, what's the harm in giving me one!"

"Oh my, it's just that I can't bear for you to leave me." Jiang Xun waved his hand and laughed.

"..." Si Yuyan gritted her teeth upon hearing this, wanting to rush over and snatch one back, but she was only at the Nascent Soul stage and couldn't beat the current Jiang Xun at all.

She could only point a finger at Jiang Xun, wanting to say something but stopping, then waved her hand, and the Liu Hong Sword flew into her hand.

"Don't you dare trick me, you wouldn't want someone as pretty as me to die here, would you?" Si Yuyan looked at Jiang Xun and said.

"Don't you worry." Jiang Xun gave Si Yuyan a reassuring look.

Then, Si Yuyan began to use the Liu Hong Sword to attack one of the ice flowers.

The ice flower shattered, and countless ice thorns suddenly appeared from the top of the cave, instantly stabbing toward Si Yuyan. Si Yuyan hurriedly jumped back to dodge, and using the Heavenly Net Soul-Urging, she waved her hand, and a Black Blade slashed toward the ice thorns.

But those ice thorns were clearly not something Si Yuyan could deal with; the Black Blade slashed onto them, and the Black Blade shattered directly, turning back into blood and scattering all over the ground.

Si Yuyan was also pierced through the body, instantly turned into a hedgehog.

A trail of blood streaked from the corner of her mouth, looking somewhat tragically beautiful.

The ice spikes subsequently vanished, and Si Yuyan's "corpse" collapsed into a pool of blood with a thud.

Seeing that there was no more movement, Jiang Xun walked forward and resurrected Si Yuyan with a Soul Returning Pill.

"It hurts, it hurts me to death... This mechanism truly has the power of the Great Vehicle Realm; it is impossible to block, one can only destroy one and die once, until the real one is found."

A moment later, Si Yuyan climbed up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and said in a hoarse voice.

"Look, the one you just destroyed has recovered again; you still have to remember their positions, quick, continue." Jiang Xun patted Si Yuyan on the shoulder, then quickly ran out.

Si Yuyan glared fiercely at Jiang Xun and used the Liu Hong Sword to support herself as she stood up.

Without the slightest hesitation, she slashed another sword strike toward an ice flower.

As the ice flower shattered, countless ice vines surged out from the surroundings; Si Yuyan did not put up any resistance at all, letting the ice vines bind her and strangle her to death.

Jiang Xun ran back in to resurrect Si Yuyan, then ran back out again, and Si Yuyan continued to destroy the ice flowers; this repeated over and over, more than twenty times in a row, letting Si Yuyan experience all sorts of different ways to die.
