Chapter 326: Possession
Song Qingming had practiced for so many years and had also found some secret realms, treasure lands, or cave dwellings of seniors. Although he could also find some good things in them, 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 grass huts 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, reducing the guard in their hearts.
The more Song Qingming thought about it, the more he felt that what he saw was not real enough. He raised his hand and took out a small golden mirror, launching a golden light at that pile of colorful spirit stones.
This mirror was the first second-tier low-grade magic tool, Golden Light Mirror, that Song Qingming obtained when he explored the senior's cave dwelling in Yunwu Mountain 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 had been replaced in a big wave, this item had always been kept on him.
After the attack of the Golden Light Mirror fell on that pile of spirit stones, it suddenly emitted a burst of dazzling white light, and then turned into a pile of somewhat black ordinary stones, with some puppet beasts that seemed to have been damaged on the side.
"Sigh! Sure enough, they were all things transformed by illusion."
Song Qingming sighed, put away the Golden Light Mirror, and was just about to exit this grass hut, but discovered that the scenery behind him also changed suddenly. At this moment, the door of this grass hut had already turned into a black stone wall.
Scanning the surroundings, everything had turned into a black piece. At this moment, Song Qingming was already in the depths of a black cave. Where was there any grass hut on the edge of the cliff?
"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 black cave.
Hearing this voice, Song Qingming was shocked in his heart. He hurriedly turned around and looked behind him, discovering that among that pile of damaged puppet beasts, a crane puppet beast that was about the same size as him suddenly stood up and walked toward him slowly, talking while walking, and only stopped when it was three zhang away from Song Qingming.
"This is, the legendary technique of possession!"
Looking at a puppet beast that could open its mouth and talk to him, Song Qingming's mind suddenly thought of a high-tier secret technique of the immortal cultivation world that he had never seen before: the technique of possession. According to the records in the classics, after this technique is performed, the cultivator's divine soul can be possessed in puppet beasts, refining corpses, natal magic treasures, or even low-tier cultivators. The cultivator can use this secret technique to control the possessed things to act freely from a long distance, and can also exert a portion of their own magic power.
If the opponent really performed this technique, then the situation would be somewhat bad for Song Qingming. Those who could practice this technique were at least high-tier cultivators of the Nascent Soul period. Stepping on him, this Foundation Establishment cultivator, was really 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, it would really be better than being chased by Sun Jingya as easily as it was 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, and did not intend to disturb the senior's cultivation. I hope the senior can forgive my previous rudeness."
"Hehe! You are quite polite, but just saying a few nice words and wanting the old man to let you go, it's really thinking too well." The voice emitted by the crane puppet beast was very much like a vicissitudes old man, but it was mixed with a hint of unique creaking sound when the puppet beast's parts moved.
"Then what does the senior want to do to let the junior go?"
"Very simple, you just need to take this elixir and work for me from now on. The old man naturally won't care about these offensive things for his subordinates.
You can break the array I set up outside. It seems that your array level should not be low. The old man is a person who cherishes talent. In the future, if you can handle things well for me and make contributions, the old man will definitely not treat you badly. This is an opportunity for you, boy. Not everyone has the opportunity to work for me."
After the crane puppet finished speaking, one wing flapped lightly, and a black jade bottle flew out from the ground and fell directly into 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 green elixir he had never seen before. The opponent doing this was to use this elixir to control him in the future.
"Senior, if you can't possess me, you want to use this kind of thing to control me. It's really too vicious."
"Hehe! You really saw it. It seems that you are not stupid, boy." Hearing Song Qingming's words, the crane puppet suddenly let out a weird laugh.
"Senior is over-praising!"
Seeing the opponent admit it generously, Song Qingming finally confirmed the idea in his heart. Just now, discovering that this crane was hiding in that pile of transformed spirit stones, Song Qingming had already vaguely felt that the opponent made such a big battle, it should be to possess Song Qingming's flesh body.
Cultivators above the Golden Core period, after their flesh body suffers fatal damage, their divine soul can still survive for a period of time. During this period, these powerful divine souls can enter the body of low-tier cultivators, forcibly possess the other party, and occupy the other party's flesh body.
This guy must have lost his flesh body, so he could only possess his divine soul on the crane puppet. Just now, hiding in the illusion array was actually to attack and possess Song Qingming's flesh body at close range.
Otherwise, with his Nascent Soul cultivation, he wouldn't have to talk so much nonsense with Song Qingming, and he wouldn't have to use things like elixirs to control him.
"Listening to your accent, you are not from the Lu State side. Where did you come from?" Seeing that the conversation between the two sides fell into a state of embarrassment, the crane puppet suddenly opened his mouth to shift 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 is indeed an unintentional mistake. I hope the senior can 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 array and could only continue to try to see if the opponent could let him go.
"What did you say? The Heaven Sea Alliance has already hit this vicinity, Su Tianpeng of the Spirit Concealment Sect is really a waste." Hearing Song Qingming say this, the crane puppet's tone seemed to have a hint of panic that was not easy to detect. After a while, he opened his mouth and said to Song Qingming: "Continue to tell me what the situation is outside now!"
Guessing that after the opponent lost his flesh body, he should have stayed here for a long time and didn't know much about the situation outside, Song Qingming told the crane puppet the battle situation he knew after arriving in the Lu State in detail.
"Boy! I won't talk nonsense. The old man wants to make a deal with you. As long as you agree, I can let you leave immediately!"
