Chapter 93: Chapter 94 Earth Beetle
“Ah!” The corpse of the double-horned alien on the platform suddenly spoke, shocking Ye Xin into screaming and repeatedly stepping back, staying by Lin Qian’s side, whose eyes were still tightly shut.
The corpse suddenly speaking also greatly surprised Nan Xin, who hastily stepped back and retreated into the midst of the zombie army before finally appearing to let down his guard.
After being among the zombie army, Nan Xin looked at the alien corpse with uncertainty, “Throughout these long years, this is the first time you have woken up.”
“Had your soul not been damaged, allowing me to abstain from fully reinforcing the Array, it would have been really impossible for me to divert my attention.” Saying this, the double-horned alien turned his head and looked towards Lin Qian, who was slowly opening his eyes, “It seems that this young man from our Human Clan is indeed extraordinary, managing to leave you in such disarray.”
The purple flames in Nan Xin’s hollow eye sockets flickered incessantly, as he too glanced at Lin Qian with immense resentment, “This kid is too uncanny.”
Lin Qian, who had just woken up, happened to hear the words of the alien corpse and looked somewhat astonished.
The corpse on the platform had not died and had woken up. Moreover, from the tone of the other party, it seemed that he was a human like himself.
Connecting to Nan Xin’s earlier soul demeanor, Lin Qian had an epiphany.
“Little Qian!” At this moment, Ye Xin hurried to his side, touched his face, and anxiously sized him up, “How are you, are you alright?”
“Of course, I’m fine; attempting to possess me is a joke.” Seeing Ye Xin’s anxious demeanor, Lin Qian quickly reassured her and retracted the golden aura from his body back into his brow.
Earlier, when he saw Nan Xin flee from his own consciousness, a trace of soul force from Lin Qian also rushed out, enveloping Ye Xin.
As Lin Qian was worried that after Nan Xin’s soul left his consciousness, he would retaliate against Ye Xin out of anger.
Although Nan Xin’s soul was also heavily damaged due to his actions, Ye Xin was different from him, as her soul did not have the vast support of an Empire’s national fortune.
“It’s good that you’re okay.” Confirming that Lin Qian was truly unharmed, Ye Xin finally patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
“Hehe, Xinxin, I have something good for you.” At that moment, Lin Qian suddenly gave a secretive smile towards Lin Qian, lightly pointing his index finger towards his brow.
At the touch of Lin Qian’s fingertip to his brow, a uniformly white, spherical object was drawn out along his index finger from his brow.
“A refined, immaculate pure soul origin?” Nan Xin looked at the object at Lin Qian’s fingertip, first stunned, then realizing shortly after, the purple flames in his hollow eye sockets violently flickered, “You actually refined my soul origin!”
At this moment, Nan Xin’s heart was virtually bleeding.
The soul origin is the fundamental root of a creature’s soul.
If soul force is depleted, one merely needs to sleep it off to recover.
However, refilling the soul origin is not so simple; without a Class A Pill, it’s practically impossible to heal.
Moreover, given Nan Xin’s current condition, where could he obtain a Class A Pill to consume? The treasure vaults of the Dangyuan Sect were sealed by an Array, and with his current state, he couldn’t possibly break it!
Furthermore, this body was not his own, and he couldn’t use the method of possession to make it his, even if he had a Pill, he couldn’t consume it.
Seeing his soul origin refined to purity and given to his woman for her refining by the Human Clan boy, Nan Xin was in agony.
“Ha ha ha, Nan Xin, oh Nan Xin, trying to steal a chicken only to lose the rice, truly satisfying,” the creature from another race on the platform laughed heartily, clearly enjoying himself.
Ye Xin looked bewilderedly at the creature on the platform and then at Nan Xin amidst the army of walking corpses, rubbing her temples, “What… what exactly is going on here?”
“Based on my guess, this Nan Xin must be from another race, his soul somehow ended up in the body of this ancient Human Clan powerhouse. As for the soul inside this creature, it must be that of a Human Clan elder,” Lin Qian pointed at the creature on the platform and then at Nan Xin.
Ye Xin thought about it carefully, it indeed seemed so: “So, are you saying they exchanged bodies?”
“I’m not sure about that,” Lin Qian spread his hands, showing his helplessness with the specifics.
“Young friend, you’re half right; the body currently used by this creature indeed belongs to me,” the creature on the platform spoke, “Actually, I used my own body to seal this creature’s soul, while my own soul is stationed inside this Array, suppressing his physical body.”
Lin Qian and Ye Xin were extremely surprised to hear this; they had not expected the truth to be . This Human Clan elder had made such a sacrifice to deal with this creature from another race.
“May I ask, elder, are you…” possessing such courage to do such a thing, and still being a Human Clan elder, Lin Qian felt respect.
“I am Zhang Juncheng, the Sect Master of Dangyuan Sect. Alas, this creature was terribly powerful. Initially, we ended up both severely injured, and I was at a disadvantage. In desperation, I could only use this method to seal and hold him off, enabling the lineage of my Dangyuan Sect to escape.”
Here, the creature on the platform looked at the army of walking corpses behind Nan Xin, both lost and angry: “Pity these disciples of mine, who were still turned into walking corpses by him.”
The Sect Master of Dangyuan Sect!
Both Lin Qian and Ye Xin were somewhat surprised; they really hadn’t expected that this elder, a Human Clan soul in an alien body, was actually the Sect Master of this ancient Sect.
“Elder, may I ask if the seal is broken, why his soul could leave the body to attempt body snatching?” Lin Qian continued to ask Zhang Juncheng while glancing at the gritting Nan Xin.
Zhang Juncheng looked at Nan Xin, gave a bitter smile, and expressed his helplessness, “There’s no helping it, he is stronger than me and indeed capable of doing this. However, if a soul leaves the body for more than ten steps or exceeds an hour, it will dissipate!”
After Zhang Juncheng finished speaking, Ye Xin’s eyes blurred and drowsiness surged: “Little Qian, what is happening to me…”
“This young friend, the pure soul origin brought to you has apparently started to merge into your soul, undergoing transformation, and you may fall into a deep sleep for some days,” Zhang Juncheng explained with a smile from the platform, as an experienced and knowledgeable old creature.
Understanding the reason, Ye Xin relaxed, letting sleepiness take over and collapsing into Lin Qian’s arms.
“Human boy, I will tear you into thousands of pieces,” Nan Xin roared fiercely at that moment.
Because Ye Xin’s benefits had come from him!
And that soul origin, now refined to flawless purity by Lin Qian, had nothing to do with Nan Xin anymore; it had become that girl’s supplement.
How could this not infuriate Nan Xin?
“With this army of walking corpses, young boy, even if you can resist my body snatching, you will still die here,” Nan Xin spread his arms and roared ferociously.
Lin Qian glanced at Nan Xin with contempt, “These things, you call an army? Give me a break, bumpkin!”
