Ghost Plume's Plans

"Tell me, how did you come back from the dead?" Zhuowen stopped attacking and looked at Sakyamuni calmly.

Sakyamuni's eyes were filled with fear. He pondered for a moment, then said, "I obtained a Reincarnation Talisman. I placed a strand of my Divine Soul in the Reincarnation Talisman and had a chance to reincarnate.

"When you killed me, the Reincarnation Talisman was activated, so I had a chance to come back to life. But that was the only chance."

Sakyamuni looked at Zhuowen as he spoke.

"It's that simple?"

Zhuowen looked at Sakyamuni in surprise. He had heard of the Reincarnation Talisman before, but it was extremely rare. Its value was comparable to a Genesis Divine Medicine.

He didn't expect Sakyamuni to obtain such a precious talisman when he was in the Eight Heavens. He had to admit that Sakyamuni was very lucky.

Sakyamuni saw Zhuowen fall silent and felt a little nervous. He whispered, "Zhuowen, I've already told you how I came back to life. You know my position in the Ten Extremes Yin Corpse Sect, and my master, Ba Jingwei, is a vengeful master. His strength is unfathomable, and he is a Creator …"

Before Sakyamuni could finish, he was struck by a bolt of divine lightning. He screamed in pain, and white smoke rose from the surface of his Divine Soul.

"Are you threatening me?" Zhuowen asked calmly.

"No, I'm not threatening you. I'm just analyzing the current situation for you. If you let me go, I can let bygones be bygones. If you keep this a secret, my master won't make trouble for you, but …"

Sakyamuni hurriedly explained, but he was met with another bolt of lightning and another scream.

"Zhuowen, are you really going to kill me?"

Sakyamuni roared, his voice full of anger. He had lost his mind, and his Divine Soul emitted a powerful light. He rushed toward Zhuowen like a madman.

"You're courting death!"

Zhuowen's eyes were filled with murderous intent. His right hand formed a claw and slammed down. The terrifying Divine Thunder was like a prison, enveloping Sakyamuni who wanted to fight to the death.

With a shrill scream, Sakyamuni's Spiritual Soul was completely annihilated by the terrifying lightning. He couldn't be more dead.

After destroying Sakyamuni's soul, Zhuowen frowned slightly. He felt that Sakyamuni's soul was behaving strangely.

This guy was clearly in the state of a Divine Soul and had no combat power at all, but he suddenly attacked Zhuowen. It was as if he couldn't wait for Zhuowen to kill him.

Zhuowen couldn't help but shake his head at this conjecture. He felt that he was overthinking. Sakyamuni must have really lost his mind, which was why he did such a crazy thing.

Zhuowen wanted to ask how Sakyamuni's Dao Root had evolved, but unfortunately, he didn't have the chance now. This Sakyamuni was too crazy, so he could only kill him.

"There's still some time before nightfall. I'll wait a little longer!"

Zhuowen sighed softly. He sat down cross-legged and began to quietly wait for night to fall.

…

"Brother Ghost Plume, it's settled then. We'll take our leave first. See you in half a year!"

On the Blue Moon Lake, Xuochen Shen was full of smiles. He cupped his hands at Ghost Plume, then cupped his hands at Xing Jing, Ye Qidong, and Jiang Qisheng before leaving.

After Xuochen Shen left, Xing Jing and Jiang Qisheng bid farewell and left as well. Their faces were filled with excitement as if they'd obtained some sort of precious treasure.

Ye Qidong didn't return. Instead, he glanced indifferently at Ghost Plume and suddenly said, "The place where the Ancestral Shaman fell is of great importance. I'm sure Brother Ghost Plume has already informed the Sect Master of the Ten Extremes Yin Corpse Sect."

Ghost Plume wasn't surprised. He smiled at Ye Qidong and said, "Brother Ye, the place where the Ancestral Shaman Gonggong fell is too dangerous. It's an unknown place. Our Sect Master naturally knows about it."

"However, our Sect Master has considered everything thoroughly. He knows that great opportunities are often accompanied by great risks. Our Ten Extremes Yin Corpse Sect really wants this great opportunity, but we're also afraid of the great risks involved."

Ye Qidong sneered and said, "So your Ten Extremes Yin Corpse Sect wants to share the risk?

I think that after today, the place where the Ancestral Shaman Gonggong fell will be known by all the major forces of the Host Region. "

Ghost Plume cackled and said, "Brother Ye, you're underestimating our Sect Master's boldness. Haven't you noticed that the attacks of the foreign races on the Astral Battlefield have become even fiercer recently?"

Ye Qidong's expression was cold and said, "You've even spread the news to the foreign races of the Primitive Heaven Domain?"

Ghost Plume laughed and said, "Not only the foreign races, but the other forces of the three Precepts will also send people. Brother Ye, don't worry. You already know where Gonggong fell. It's in the Astral Battlefield, but only our Sect Master knows the exact location."

"You're crazy. You're playing with fire!" Ye Qidong frowned, his expression cold.

Ghost Plume smiled and said, "Brother Ye, you'll know in half a year whether we're playing with fire or not."

Ye Qidong regained his composure and nodded to Ghost Plume, saying, "In that case, we'll meet in half a year!"

With that, Ye Qidong stomped his right foot and left the Blue Moon Lake.

Ghost Plume put his hands behind his back and looked at Ye Qidong's departing figure with a strange look in his eyes. He said in a low voice, "The Astral Battlefield, where Gonggong fell. I'll kick you off your pedestal. It's time for the position of the number one genius to change."

With that, Ghost Plume returned to the pavilion, and the cultivators around the Blue Moon Lake all left the courtyard. Even Qiu Linglong was sent out by Ghost Plume.

Ghost Plume opened the restriction of the pavilion, then flicked his finger and took out Sakyamuni's corpse from the small world.

Originally, half of the chest of Sakra's corpse had been blown apart by Zhuo Wen's Sky Splitting Blade, but now, it had actually completely recovered.

Apart from the bloodstained remains of his clothes, which showed that Sakyamuni had gone through an extremely cruel battle, there was nothing else that could be seen.

"Junior Brother Sakyamuni is indeed not an ordinary person. He recovered from such a terrifying injury, but his soul is empty. Could it be that Xiao Wen took it away …"

Ghost Plume thought of a possibility, and his expression turned ugly. He was about to put away Sakyamuni's corpse and head to Yin Wuxie's cave to find Xiao Wen when the originally motionless Sakyamuni suddenly moved.

The vertical slit between Sakyamuni's eyebrows suddenly opened, revealing a golden pupil. The light it emitted was so intense that even Ghost Plume's expression changed drastically, and he quickly retreated.
