Chapter 162: Possession?

~7 min read 1,323 words

"Do you have nothing you want to say to me?" The old man looked at He Pingsheng and asked indifferently.

He Pingsheng had sobered up by now, and he gave a cold laugh: "An ant fighting for its life, struggling to the death, what is there to say?"

"You won, I lost, it's that simple!"

"Kill or skin me, do as you please!"

*Clap... *

*Clap! *

*Clap! *

The old man reached out and clapped a few times, very loudly.

"Good, a hero, upright and forthright!" The Tai Xu Biyun Laozu's hunched body stood up again, and he walked slowly around He Pingsheng twice, saying: "So now you're saying, I'm the winner, and you're the loser?"

He Pingsheng didn't speak.

Tai Xu continued: "Then, as a loser, can you tell me why you wanted to run away?"

"Have I, your master, done anything to wrong you?"

He Pingsheng said: "Why must you ask when you already know, old man?"

Tai Xu said: "I want to ask when I know, so I ask you, Young Master He, to enlighten me?"

He Pingsheng pointed behind him: "The vast Tai Xu Men, not letting me leave, keeping me confined here—what kind of heart do you have? Don't you know it yourself?"

"And this?"

His arm turned and pointed at the array on the ground that hadn't been finished yet: "This is clearly an array for possession!"

"You're going to possess me, and you won't let me run?"

Tai Xu was stunned for a moment: "Possess... possession?"

He looked at himself, then at the array under his feet, and nodded: "You think this is an array for possession?"

He Pingsheng retorted: "Isn't it?"

"Yes, yes, yes..." Tai Xu nodded somewhat wearily: "If you think it is, then it is. Anyway, you are the loser now, and I am the winner!"

"With a single thought, I can destroy your spiritual sense!"

"Escaping is impossible now!"

"Are you interested in making a deal with me?" The Tai Xu Biyun Laozu turned around with a smile, his back to He Pingsheng, and walked slowly toward the two large and small circular arrays.

With a few *claps*, array flags fell into their predetermined positions in his hands.

This possession array was now a bit more complete.

He Pingsheng asked: "Kill or skin me, do as you please. Is there any need for you to make a deal with me?"

"Boring, boring..." The old man shook his head like a rattle-drum: "How much do you know about possession?"

He Pingsheng said: "Not much!"

The Tai Xu Biyun Laozu asked: "Then do you know what the success rate of possession is?"

Success rate?

He Pingsheng was stunned; he really didn't know this.

But before he could answer, the old man who was setting up the array on the opposite side began to talk to himself: "Possession is stealing the Dao of heaven and earth; the success rate is very low. Even with my current Nascent Soul cultivation, bullying the small to possess you, a kid, the success rate is less than one in ten!"

"So my deal is, you trade a one-in-ten chance of life and death for a smooth path in the future, how about it?"

He Pingsheng said: "This disciple doesn't quite understand!"

"Hehe..." Tai Xu smiled: "In a while, when my array is set up, I will possess you. Of course, my chance of success is only one in ten. If I succeed, you will disappear from this world, and I will occupy your body to continue cultivating!"

"And if I fail, my life will also come to an end. I will give you... this..."

He pointed behind him: "The entire Tai Xu Men, how about it?"

"The resources in the hall on the left are all prepared for you!"

"Also, this Tai Xu Men is yours too... from now on, you are the master of the Tai Xu Men!"

He Pingsheng felt no temptation at all.

His own life—let alone a one-in-ten chance of death, even one in ten thousand, he didn't want to gamble.

One can gamble with the Heavenly Dao, one can gamble with opportunities, but one must never gamble with one's own life.

"Can this disciple refuse?" He Pingsheng asked.

The old man shook his head: "No, a loser cannot refuse the conditions proposed by the winner!"

"Sit here, organize your soul well, and recover your spiritual sense!"

"That way, your chance of winning later will be a bit higher!"

After the Tai Xu Biyun Laozu finished speaking, he went back to lying on the ground, starting to set up the array again.

It didn't take long; about half an hour later, two ink-green light membranes appeared in the Tai Xu Divine Hall.

Yin winds drifted in, as if coming from the depths of the Nine Netherworld.

This infinite Yin Qi rushed out of the array, drifting in the hall, and was blown away by the Nine Yang Array that had been set up around the hall.

"So that's it!"

He Pingsheng's gaze narrowed: everything before him was exactly as he had guessed.

This Nine Yang Array was used to suppress the Yin Qi.

"Starting now!"

The Tai Xu Biyun Laozu said this with a calm expression, and then He Pingsheng felt his body go out of control.

His entire person was actually controlled by Tai Xu's spiritual sense, landing in the possession array.

The possession array had two circles.

One large circle, one small circle.

The large circle represented the host position, while the small circle represented the guest position.

He Pingsheng landed in the host position.

The Tai Xu Biyun Laozu stood in the guest position.

Possession is a heaven-defying secret technique that reverses the host and guest.

"Master... Master..." He Pingsheng was scared to the point of wetting himself, and he pleaded: "Don't do this... this disciple begs you... as long as you don't possess me, I can agree to anything else!"

"Noisy!"

The Tai Xu Biyun Laozu's gaze sank: "At this time, don't talk nonsense, otherwise your death rate will be even higher!"

*Boom... *

The Tai Xu Biyun Laozu's spiritual sense surged forth, enveloping He Pingsheng.

Under the control of this powerful spiritual sense, He Pingsheng couldn't move his body, couldn't even circulate his internal breath, and couldn't even open his mouth to speak.

He could only watch helplessly as the Tai Xu Biyun Laozu's spiritual sense invaded his body inch by inch.

Under the blessing of the powerful soul sense, he had no power to resist.

"Not bad... to actually possess such heaven-defying luck, hehehe... it seems I didn't choose the wrong person!"

"You even have a treasure like the Treasure-Gathering Basin?"

"Hahahaha... worthy of being a heaven-favored child, your future achievements will definitely be above mine!"

He Pingsheng's vision suddenly went black, and he lost all consciousness.

He didn't know how long he had been in a daze before he woke up again.

In the infinite darkness, a ray of light flashed.

In the pitch-black night sky, the rain poured down incessantly, like a torrential downpour.

Thunder rumbled in the sky, and lightning occasionally tore through the night, illuminating the deep valley.

In a slightly higher place in the deep valley, there was a three-story wooden building.

The building was brightly lit, and a tall man in white Daoist robes was standing by the railing with a face full of sorrow.

He Pingsheng's body trembled!

He recognized this man.

Isn't it Tai Xu?

No... this should be Tai Xu in his youth.

A young woman in green Daoist robes walked out of the room gently; she was stunningly beautiful, but like Tai Xu, she wore a faint look of sorrow on her face!

He Pingsheng finally realized why he was seeing this scene.

Possession.

In the process of soul fusion, the two become one, and both sides can see each other's past memories.

This is... Tai Xu's memory? ===== CHAPTER 163 =====
