edded into pieces by the ethereal sword formation were not truly dead. Instead, they transformed into three disheveled, pale-faced creatures with no trace of blood color, almost like puppets.Meanwhile...“Since fellow Daoist doesn't believe me, then let fellow Daoist do as they please.” The primordial spirit within the Soul-Binding Pearl sighed sadly.

"Since that's the case, I have no need to keep you here. You can just fend for yourself." Lu Xia Tian extended a finger and was about to launch the Soul-Suppressing Orb.

“Wait, wait, if you don’t want to send this down to your master, then take this white-haired zombie instead.” Hearing Lu Xia Tian say this, the primordial spirit within the Soul Suppressing Bead immediately panicked and said.

Indeed, he was putting on a show. Lu Xia Tian's heart skipped a beat, but suddenly he noticed what seemed to be a silver-gray light flashing past.

Similarly, the soul within the Soul-Suppressing Orb also noticed the silver light flashing. When it saw the white light flash, its soul suddenly burst into laughter.

The flickering silver light and the reaction of the primordial spirit within the Soul-Banishing Orb sent a shiver down Lu Xia Tian's spine. Recalling his own primordial spirit's previous reactions, he realized they were likely merely delaying tactics. The other party might not have intended for him to lead them to the tomb to find a suitable vessel for possession. Their true purpose might be waiting for that silver glow.

Suddenly, a scream echoed through the air. Lu Xia Tian strained his ears and looked in the direction of the scream. At that moment, Old Hu was already decapitated. His head was being held by a sharp claw. However, the monster that had killed Old Hu had vanished back into the darkness, appearing and disappearing without a trace.

Ge Changting and Xiao Sanniang were both startled. Although the two of them were stronger than Hu Lao Gui in terms of skill and cultivation, Hu Lao Gui's skeleton knights were also very powerful. Even if the two wanted to deal with Hu Lao Gui, they would need to pay a considerable price. Otherwise, Hu Lao Gui would not be able to stand on equal footing with the two of them. Just by Hu Lao Gui's strength, he hadn't even had time to react before being grabbed by the head. They didn't even see what this monster looked like, and the strange scene in front of them, along with Hu Lao Gui's tragic death, clearly frightened the two of them.

“Haha, finally here. I have to say, you kid is really lucky to have lasted until today. It must be that Di Kun happened to be out before, otherwise you wouldn't be alive now.” The Yuanshen inside the Soul-Banishing Pearl saw Hu Lao Gui fall and instead of being shocked, he was delighted, bursting into laughter.

"Emperor Yin Corpse, Kun!" Ge Changting and Xiao Sanniang trembled all over, without the slightest desire to fight back. They abandoned their two fourth-order White Hair Corpses simultaneously, fearfully moving closer towards Lu Xia Tian. Their bodies shook like chaff, and the terror on their faces clearly showed that they had thought of an extremely terrifying existence.

“Emperor Kun Is it you that you have been plotting and waiting for” Lu Xia Tian’s heart was also quite shaken. He didn't expect to find Emperor Kun in this tomb. Emperor Kun is an extremely terrifying flying silver corpse. How terrifying it is, but it is not commonly known. Perhaps most people who have seen Emperor Kun are already dead. Even the Library Hall of Lingxiao Palace only has a few words about Emperor Kun. Emperor Kun, a flying silver corpse, loves to eat the souls of strong people, is extremely fast, and has been extinct for more than a thousand years. Its attack methods are strange and unknown.”

As for this completely unknown monster, Lu Xia Tian's heart was also full of trepidation. The fact that the archives described the Flying Corpse of Heaven in such a manner clearly indicated that it was an extremely terrifying existence.

“Bold! To disrespect Imperial Preceptor Di Kun!” the soul within the Soul-Binding Orb roared angrily.

Suddenly, a gust of wind flashed behind him. Lu Xia Tian's eyes opened slightly, and he was about to draw his Liedi sword to block when he turned around and saw a pair of bloody red eyes. Just as he was about to make a move, he was horrified to find that his body suddenly lost all feeling. This shock was no small matter. In his many years of walking the Immortal Path, this was the first time he had encountered such a strange situation. He couldn't even control his own body. What kind of magic technique was this No, to be more precise, it seemed that his main primordial spirit had been frozen, cutting off the connection between the primordial spirit and the body. From the perspective of his deputy primordial spirit, inside the識海 (sea of consciousness), the surface of the light ball representing the main primordial spirit seemed to be wrapped in a thin membrane as delicate as cicada wings. The main primordial spirit's commands simply couldn't be transmitted in time.

"Not good!" Lu Xia Tian cursed inwardly. His body had been struck heavily, sending him flying through the air. He tumbled and crashed against a stone wall before sliding down.

Upon seeing the scene before them, Ge Changting and Xiao Sanniang were so shocked that their souls left their bodies. In their eyes, Lu Xia Tian, who was already incredibly powerful, was unable to even withstand a single blow from Di Kun's attack and was sent flying. Once Di Kun dealt with Lu Xia Tian, they would have ten lives and still wouldn't be enough to kill them if he turned his attention back to them.

“Run!” Ge Changting and Xiao Sanniang exchanged a glance, no longer daring to linger. Seeing a silver-gray shadow pounce on Lu Xiaoteng who had crashed into the stone wall, and with several white-haired corpses now paralyzed by fear, both of them thought of this single word at the same time.

A black shadow flashed, and the two dashed backward at lightning speed. They exerted their utmost effort, though they were still eyeing those skeletal knights of Old Monster Hu with apprehension. However, in this life-or-death situation, their decisive retreat was nothing short of admirable.

A large boulder on the stone wall had fallen, almost creating a human-shaped indentation. This showed just how powerful the silver corpse's attack had been.

Lu Xia Tian trembled all over, feeling so depressed that he almost choked on his blood. A gust of wind flashed behind him, clearly indicating that the monster who had just ambushed him was already close again.

“Haha, boy, I advise you not to resist, lest you die a more painful death. To die at the hands of the legendary Flying Silver Corpse Emperor Kun is considered an honor.” The primordial spirit within the Soul-Suppressing Orb laughed wantonly at this moment. The Soul-Suppressing Orb floated in mid-air, and the other party could clearly see everything before them. However, this primordial spirit was actually quite nervous when it saw this scene, fearing that Emperor Kun would accidentally destroy this body completely, thus truly plunging their future into darkness.

Furious, Lu Xiaotian's heart was filled with anger. Since he embarked on the path of cultivation, this was the first time he had been forced into such a pathetic state. He barely had any chance to fight back. What angered him even more was that the primordial spirit within the Soul-Suppressing Orb was still plotting against him at this moment. It was truly insidious. He finally understood, the primordial spirit within the Soul-Suppressing Orb had spoken to him just now, intending to distract him and allow the Flying Silver Corpse to take advantage of him. It was a meticulous plan, perhaps even from the moment he obtained the Soul-Suppressing Orb that he had been targeted. Such deep cunning.

If it weren't for the Fire Jiao scales and his sixth-grade body cultivation prowess, even if a Foundation Establishment ninth-layer cultivator with extraordinary strength were to take his place, they would likely have been struck by the opponent's attack by now. Until this point, Lu Xiaoteng felt that body cultivators might be at a disadvantage in long-range duels, but when it came to self-defense, they possessed an unparalleled advantage. Especially in his current situation.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!beast wasn't found, but instead, you got your hands on the demon spirit of a Nascent Soul Stage beast first." 。Lu Xia Tian received the sound transmission note with great joy. 。immediately flew toward...
