Chapter 1259: Something

What's the situation?

Xu Que frowned. Who else could make Er Gou so cowardly, and also be a familiar woman?

"Xuan Yuan Wanrong?"

A name immediately popped up in Xu Que's mind. For so many years, she was the only woman who could make them all suffer and feel wary. Even now, they had no ability to fight her!

But wasn't she still under the Buried Immortal Valley? There was no reason for her to come out so quickly. Could it be another avatar?

*Whoosh! *

Immediately, Xu Que waved his hand, and surging Immortal Yuan surged out, turning into a giant palm, forcibly dragging Er Gou and Duan Jiude back from the air.

"What are you two running for? Make it clear first, who exactly came!" Xu Que asked.

"Ow, kid, hurry and let go of this Godly Venerable. If you want to die, don't drag this Godly Venerable with you! That woman is here again!" Er Gou immediately howled, very anxious, struggling to run.

"Which woman?" Xu Que frowned.

"Who else could it be? The one under the Buried Immortal Valley! She really came. If we don't run now, it will be too late!" Er Gou screamed.

"You're talking nonsense. She is clearly under the Buried Immortal Valley and won't be able to come out for at least several hundred years. How could she appear here? At most, she's like the one in the Snow Mist Palace, just an avatar." Xu Que shook his head, very indifferent.

Even if it were truly Xuan Yuan Wanrong's true body descending, he would be fearless. After all, when Xuan Yuan Wanrong was angry back then, she had dragged him into the Imperial Physician Heavenly Book, making their fates intertwined from then on, turning into a destiny.

He lives, Xuan Yuan Wanrong lives! He dies, Xuan Yuan Wanrong dies!

The opposite was also true!

So their lives were linked, and Xuan Yuan Wanrong absolutely didn't have the guts to kill him!

"It's different! Kid, this time it's different. Although the aura is the same aura, and the strength is not as strong as the true body in the Buried Immortal Valley, this Godly Venerable just feels uneasy. That woman's aura has a demonic nature, and her murderous aura is too great. This Godly Venerable dares to bet that the few people who just entered are definitely dead at that woman's hands!" After Er Gou finished shouting, its struggle became even more intense.

Murderous aura?

Hearing this word, Xu Que froze.

In his impression, although Xuan Yuan Wanrong looked very aloof and had a kind of high-and-mighty attitude of looking down on everything, she shouldn't be described as having a great murderous aura, right?

"Stop thinking, kid, let's go out first. We absolutely won't stay here! This Godly Venerable has a bold guess, let's talk about it after going up!" At this moment, Er Gou urged, truly unable to break free from Xu Que's restraint, and had to persuade him earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Xu Que had to nod. With Er Gou so nervous, it was better to take it seriously. In case there was truly a version of Xuan Yuan Wanrong with a huge murderous aura, the consequences might be very bad.

In any case, the Resurrection Thousand Gold Vine was here and wouldn't grow legs and run away. There was no loss in going up and then coming back down!

*Whoosh! *

He immediately waved his hand, released the restraint on Er Gou and Duan Jiude, and at the same time cast a gentle Immortal Yuan force, enveloping himself and Liu Jingning, and swept toward the entrance above their heads.

Seeing this, Mo Junchen followed closely.

Soon, not long after sweeping into the air, that huge pulling force came again, throwing the group out, directly squeezing them out of the entrance and back to the ground.

As soon as Er Gou landed, it wanted to run, thinking this place was still unsafe.

"Holy crap, stop running!" Xu Que rolled his eyes speechlessly, casually cast a restriction, directly sealing the entrance on the ground, and looked at Er Gou: "Can you rest assured now? Hurry up and say, what exactly is going on?"

"Kid, believe this Godly Venerable once. This place cannot be gone down into. Just now this Godly Venerable absolutely did not see wrong. That aura was Xuan Yuan Wanrong's. It is highly likely to be an avatar, and it is an avatar full of murderous aura. Simply put, it's a murderous maniac!" Er Gou said with lingering fear.

"An avatar full of murderous aura? You mean, this avatar of hers would even kill me?" Xu Que was curious. He had once had such a situation himself. Back then, in order to sprint to the Void Refining Stage, he had transferred all his murderous aura and cultivation to his Dao Body, while he himself started from zero.

To some extent, Xuan Yuan Wanrong might also have been unable to break through because her murderous aura was too heavy, so she concentrated the murderous aura into an avatar!

"This seat has heard some rumors about Immortal Venerables. It is said that in order to break through to Immortal Emperor, many Immortal Venerables have tried to split their seven emotions and six desires into different avatars, and finally abandon the worst side, leaving only what they consider the best, in order to achieve perfection, and only then can they become Immortal Emperors!" At this moment, Mo Junchen said thoughtfully.

This method he mentioned originally came from Buddhism and was later spread, and many cultivators also mastered it, manifesting several avatars, representing their seven emotions and six desires, and finally only choosing a few to re-fuse with themselves, while the rest were discarded.

"It shouldn't be like this. According to my understanding of Xuan Yuan Wanrong, plus my judgment of her personality, she is not the kind of person who pursues perfection to such an extent, and it doesn't look like she has any lack of seven emotions and six desires!" Xu Que shook his head, denying Mo Junchen's speculation.

Er Gou's expression tightened: "That's right, so this Godly Venerable only thought of one possibility!"

"What possibility?" Xu Que and the others looked at Er Gou simultaneously.

"Her avatar might have derived an independent spiritual consciousness and is no longer the original Xuan Yuan Wanrong!" Er Gou said shockingly.

Xu Que and the others widened their eyes instantly.

An avatar could actually derive an independent spiritual consciousness?

"Doesn't this mean it's equivalent to indirect personality split?" Xu Que exclaimed.

Er Gou didn't understand the term personality split, shook its head and said: "I don't know, anyway, this Godly Venerable just feels that the Xuan Yuan Wanrong inside is definitely not the original Xuan Yuan Wanrong. Although the aura is the same, that kind of violence and murderous aura absolutely does not belong to the same person."

"According to what you said, then we really can't go down!" Duan Jiude smiled bitterly and looked at Xu Que.

Previously, Xu Que relied on Xuan Yuan Wanrong not daring to kill him and was fearless, but the situation was different now. If the avatar inside truly derived an independent spiritual consciousness, then she was no longer Xuan Yuan Wanrong, and perhaps the destiny bond of the Imperial Physician Heavenly Book had also lost its effect.

And generally speaking, an existence that derived an independent spiritual consciousness would basically be very disgusted with its own main body. Only with disgust would a new existence be born. Then this independent avatar would definitely be very hostile to the real Xuan Yuan Wanrong. If she knew that killing Xu Que was equivalent to killing Xuan Yuan Wanrong, she would definitely make a ruthless move!

"Absolutely cannot go down!" At this moment, Er Gou said very firmly, looking at Xu Que.

"Damn, we can't just come for nothing, right?" Xu Que spread his hands and hesitated.

On one hand, he hadn't seen that avatar yet, and up to now, everything was just Er Gou's speculation. On the other hand, he had the two souls, Xuan Yuan Qishang and Guan Chuchu, on him. If Xuan Yuan Wanrong's avatar changed, perhaps the two souls would also make a move on her!

Overall, things hadn't reached the point of no way out.

In other words, he wouldn't shed tears until he saw the coffin. Without witnessing it with his own eyes or trying it, Xu Que always felt unwilling!

"Eh, have you discovered it? When did this place start to fog up? And it seems a bit wrong, it seems some places are different!" At this moment, Liu Jingning suddenly spoke, looking around with a puzzled face.

Xu Que and the others heard this and looked around. The mountains were still mountains, the forest was still the forest, but a large piece of fog had indeed risen, shrouding the surroundings in white.

"Holy crap, we haven't been down for long, how could such a big fog rise?" Er Gou was shocked.

"Wait a minute, it's indeed a bit wrong!"

Xu Que frowned, discovering that things were not simple, pointed to the ground and said: "The bloodstains of the two Imperial Physician Scattered Immortals killed just now are all gone!"
