Chapter 326: Possession
Song Qingming had cultivated for so many years and had also found some secret realms, treasure lands, or senior cave dwellings. Although he could also find some good things inside, he had never seen such a scene.
The reason why he became so excited just now was also because what he saw in the first two thatched cottages were all useless low-tier spirit items, and then suddenly seeing so many good things, this sudden contrast was indeed very easy to make people difficult to control the excitement in their hearts all at once and lower the guard in their hearts.
The more Song Qingming thought about it, the more he felt that what he saw in front of him was not real enough. He raised his hand and took out a small golden mirror, and launched a golden light toward that pile of colorful spirit stones.
This mirror was the first second-tier low-quality magic tool, Jin Guang Mirror, that Song Qingming obtained when he explored a senior cave dwelling in Mount Yunwu years ago. Although the grade of this magic tool was not high, it had some restraining means against demonic cultivators. Over the years, although the magic tools on Song Qingming's body had been changed in a big wave, this item had always been kept on his body.
After the attack of the Jin Guang Mirror fell on that pile of spirit stones, it suddenly emitted a burst of dazzling white light, and then turned into a pile of ordinary stones that were somewhat pitch-black, and there were several puppet beasts on the side that seemed to have been damaged.
"Sigh! Sure enough, they were all things that were illusioned."
After Song Qingming sighed, he put away the Jin Guang Mirror and wanted to exit this thatched cottage, but discovered that the scenery behind him had also changed suddenly. At this moment, the door of this thatched cottage had turned into a pitch-black stone wall.
After scanning the surroundings, everything had turned into a pitch-black piece. At this moment, Song Qingming was already in the depths of a pitch-black cave. Where was there any thatched cottage by the cliff edge?
"Junior! Since you have already taken the initiative to walk in, let's stay and accompany the old man first!" Just when Song Qingming was somewhat at a loss, a somewhat weird speaking voice came from the depths of the pitch-black cave.
Song Qingming, who heard this voice, was suddenly startled in his heart. He hurriedly turned around and looked behind him, discovering that among the pile of damaged puppet beasts just now, a crane puppet beast that was about the same size as him suddenly stood up and walked toward him slowly, speaking while walking, and only stopped when it was three feet away from Song Qingming.
"This is... the legendary Possession Technique!"
Looking at a puppet beast that could open its mouth and speak to him, a high-tier secret technique of the cultivation world that he had never seen before, the Possession Technique, suddenly came to Song Qingming's mind. According to the records in the classics, after this technique was performed, it could attach the cultivator's divine soul to a puppet, corpse refiner, natal magic treasure, or even a low-tier cultivator's body. The cultivator could use this secret technique to remotely control the possessed thing to act freely, and could also exert a portion of their own magic power.
If the opponent really performed this secret technique, then the situation for Song Qingming was not very good. Those who could cultivate this technique were at least high-tier cultivators of the Nascent Soul stage. Stepping on him, this Foundation Establishment cultivator, was truly simpler than crushing an ant.
Could it be that he had just escaped from the tiger's mouth and fell into the wolf's den? If he had known that he would take the initiative to bump into a Nascent Soul old monster's hands, it would truly be less relaxed than being chased and killed by Sun Jingya now.
Song Qingming, who was in a dangerous place, although somewhat panicked in his heart at this moment, still pretended to be calm and replied with a humble face: "Junior entered this place by mistake because of avoiding pursuit. It was not intentional to disturb the senior's cultivation. I ask the senior to forgive my previous rudeness."
"Hehe! You actually understand some etiquette, but just saying a few nice words and wanting the old man to let you go, it is somewhat thinking too well." The voice emitted by the crane puppet beast was very much like an old man who had gone through vicissitudes, but it was also mixed with a trace of the creaking sound unique to the movement of puppet beast parts.
"Then what does the senior want, to be able to let the junior go?"
"Very simple. You only need to take this elixir and work for me from now on. Naturally, the old man will not care about these offensive things for his subordinates.
You can crack the formation I set up outside. It seems that your formation level should not be low. The old man is a person who cherishes talent. In the future, if you can do things well for me and make contributions, the old man will absolutely not treat you badly. This is a chance for you, kid; not everyone has the chance to work for me."
After the crane puppet finished speaking, one wing flapped gently, and a black jade bottle flew out from the ground and landed directly in Song Qingming's hand in front of him.
Song Qingming opened the jade bottle and looked at the elixir inside, discovering that it was a kind of green elixir he had never seen before. The opponent doing this was wanting to use this elixir to control him from now on.
"Senior, failing to possess, you want to use this kind of thing to control me. It is somewhat too vicious."
"Hehe! It was truly seen through by you. It seems that you kid are also not stupid." Hearing Song Qingming's words, the crane puppet suddenly emitted a weird laugh.
"Senior is over-praising!"
Seeing the opponent admit it generously, Song Qingming was finally sure of the idea in his heart. Just now, discovering that this crane was hiding in that pile of illusioned spirit stones, Song Qingming had already vaguely felt that the opponent making such a big battle should be wanting to perform possession.
After the physical body of a cultivator above the Core Formation stage suffers fatal damage, the divine soul can still survive for a period of time. During this period, these powerful divine souls can enter the body of a low-tier cultivator and forcibly perform possession on the opponent, occupying the opponent's physical body.
This guy must have already lost his physical body, so he could only attach his divine soul to the crane puppet. Just now, hiding in the illusion formation was actually to attack and possess Song Qingming's physical body at close range.
Otherwise, just relying on his Nascent Soul stage cultivation, he would not have to say so much nonsense to Song Qingming, and would not have to use things like elixirs to control him.
"Listening to your accent, you are not a person from the Lu State side. Where did you come from?" Seeing that the conversation between the two sides fell into a somewhat awkward situation, the crane puppet beast suddenly opened its mouth to transfer the topic.
"Junior came here from the Wei State to help resist the invasion of the Heaven Sea Alliance. I encountered the attack of the Heaven Sea Alliance at Huanglong Market not far from here. Entering the senior's place by mistake was truly unintentional. I ask the senior to be able to open the net and let the junior leave." Although Song Qingming had already seen the opponent's intention, he was still trapped in this illusion formation, so he could only continue to try to see if the opponent could let him go.
"What did you say? The Heaven Sea Alliance has already fought to near here? Su Tianpeng of the Lingyin Sect is truly a piece of trash." Hearing Song Qingming say this, the crane puppet's tone seemed to have a trace of panic that was not easy to detect. After a while, he opened his mouth and said to Song Qingming: "You continue to tell me what the situation is outside now!"
Guessing that the opponent had lost his physical body, Song Qingming also knew that he should have stayed here for a long time and did not know much about the situation outside, so he told the battle situation he knew after arriving in the Lu State to the crane puppet in detail.
"Kid! I won't say much nonsense. The old man wants to make a deal with you. As long as you agree, I can let you leave immediately!"
