Chapter 2641: Soul Devouring Rat dies, Heaven and Earth Furnace moves strangely

"Alas..."

A long sigh sounded from a hundred miles away.

Then, a stream of light flashed by, and Su Twelve appeared in front of the Soul Devouring Rat.

Looking at the Soul Devouring Rat that died in front of him, his face was a little heavy.

But he did not do anything more.

He had a lot of natural treasures in his hands, most of which were elixirs for healing.

However, it was easy to repair the physical injuries, but the problem of the Soul Devouring Rat was not on the body.

Rather, the life span was over and the deadline had come.

In this case, unless the tribulation was successfully passed and the realm of cultivation was broken through.

Otherwise, even if he did not take the risk of passing the tribulation, he would die.

Unfortunately, this attempt ended in failure.

Su Twelve was not surprised at this result.

After all, the Soul Devouring Rat was born timid. Although it was intelligent, it had been shrinking back for years and dared not take risks, and finally dragged it to today.

On the eve of the end of its life span, it had already begun to dissipate and return to the mortal world. It was really too late to take risks at this time.

Su Twelve is not a god, and there is no way to bring back the soul-eating rat whose life span has come to an end.

And looking at the soul-eating rat at this moment, he can't help but feel a lot of emotions in his heart.

In the first half of his life, if he had been a little lazy on the road of cultivating immortals, or if he had chosen to shrink back because of fear like the soul-eating rat.

I am afraid... I have already been like the soul-eating rat at this time, and can only try the last adventure towards impossible hope at the end of his life.

"The road of cultivating immortals is against the will of heaven, and one must have the fearless courage to live in the face of death!"

"In the first half of my life, I walked relatively smoothly. But the long immortal road is like sailing against the current, if you don't move forward, you will retreat."

"In the future immortal road, you should take this as a lesson. No matter what level of cultivation you reach, you must never relax or be afraid!"

Su Twelve's lips moved, and he whispered to himself.

The death of the spirit beast that had accompanied him for many years made him feel heavy.

The fate of the Soul-Eating Rat now touched his heart, and his state of mind also changed subtly without him noticing.

On the ground.

As if sensing Su Twelve's arrival, the Soul-Eating Rat opened its small eyes with difficulty, which showed reluctance, unwillingness, and gratitude to Su Twelve.

In the end, the light in its eyes dimmed, and the aura on its body completely dissipated.

At the moment when the Soul-Eating Rat's vitality was gone, a cold gray aura emerged from its body.

"Hmm? Is this the ghost of the Soul-Eating Rat after its death?"

"But if a living being dies, if its life span ends, the ghost will dissipate on its own. Why does the ghost of this little guy look so solid, and there is no sign of dissipation at all?"

With just one glance, Su Twelve judged the origin of the gray aura.

He looked at it carefully, and showed an expression of surprise and confusion.

Before he could react, he saw the gray aura circling in the air and heading straight for his position?

"Hmm?"

Su Twelve's face darkened, and his eyes became fierce in an instant.

The invasion of ghosts is similar to the possession of bodies among immortal cultivators.

The moment his expression changed, Su Twelve's immortal energy in his palm was activated instantly.

But then, the immortal energy in his palm quickly dissipated.

Su Twelve reacted quickly and realized immediately that the ghost was not coming for him.

"It's not coming for me, but for where I am? Could it be... there is something on me that attracts it?"

The thought flashed through his mind, and in a flash, Su Twelve seemed to think of something.

With a wave of his sleeves, he took out the Nine Heavens Linglong Pagoda hidden in his sleeves.

The pagoda was not activated by his immortal energy, but as soon as the pagoda appeared, the gray aura seemed to have found its target.

With a sound of 'swoosh', it drilled into the pagoda and disappeared without a trace.

At the same time.

In the small space world of the Nine Heavens Linglong Pagoda, Su Twelve's body suddenly opened his eyes.

In an instant, the body disappeared on the spot.

When he reappeared, he was already in front of the gray breath formed by the ghost.

Seeing the gray breath rushing, passing through the layers of formations, and heading straight for the center of the small space world.

Su Twelve knew immediately that his previous guess was most likely correct.

This gray breath was obviously heading for his most precious treasure, the Heaven and Earth Furnace.

"How could this be? Could it be that this Soul Devouring Rat has another opportunity and wants to find a ray of hope through the Heaven and Earth Furnace? Or does it want to seize the Heaven and Earth Furnace after death?"

"Impossible, let alone whether the Soul Devouring Rat is loyal or not. With its cultivation level, and now it is a ghost, what impact can it have on the Heaven and Earth Furnace?"

"The most important thing is that this change does not seem to be the active behavior of the ghost. It seems to be affected by some invisible force."

"Otherwise, without my permission, this ghost would not be able to enter the small space world from outside the Nine Heavens Linglong Tower on its own."

"In this case, the problem may still be with the Heaven and Earth Furnace?"

The thought flashed quickly, and Su Twelve's face showed a hesitant look.

After confirming the target of the Soul Devouring Rat's ghost, his first reaction was to use his power to stop it.

But the thought flashed through his mind, and he immediately dismissed it.

For so many years, the Heaven and Earth Furnace has not changed in his hands except for tempering various natural treasures.

He also wanted to know what impact this change of the Soul Devouring Rat's ghost would have on the Heaven and Earth Furnace.

Having made up his mind, Su Twelve thought again.

In an instant, he arrived at the location of the Heaven and Earth Furnace first.

In the blink of an eye, the gray aura ignored and passed through the numerous formations in the small space world, and rushed over.

Before the ghost rushed to the front, the Heaven and Earth Furnace trembled slightly, and a faint green light emerged from it.

The light flowed, forming a green thread as thin as a hair, connected to the gray breath transformed by the ghost.

Su Twelve's pupils shrank slightly, and before he could take a closer look, he saw the gray breath sinking into the Heaven and Earth Furnace.

Then, the green light in the furnace dissipated, and the Heaven and Earth Furnace returned to its original appearance.

Su Twelve's real body stood beside the Heaven and Earth Furnace, watching and observing silently.

Time passed little by little, a stick of incense, a quarter of an hour...

A full hour passed, and there was no other change in the Heaven and Earth Furnace.

No matter how you look at it, everything is as it was before.

"Hmm? No other changes?"

"Could it be... because the ghost of the Soul Devouring Rat is too weak to cause greater changes?"

"But why, after the Soul Devouring Rat died, the ghost entered the Heaven and Earth Furnace? Could it be related to the fact that the Soul Devouring Rat survived the tempering of the Heaven and Earth Furnace?"

"Forget it, no matter what the reason, such a change is also an opportunity to understand more of the wonderful uses of the Heaven and Earth Furnace."

"It just so happens that there are still many Yuan-devouring Bloodworms in the small space world now! After hundreds of years of cultivation, the number of these Yuan-devouring Bloodworms has increased a lot."

"In the future, we can regularly send some Yuan-devouring Bloodworms into the Heaven and Earth Furnace to see if there are any Yuan-devouring Bloodworms that can survive the tempering like the Soul Devouring Rat."

"When these Yuan-devouring Bloodworms die in the future, we can further observe whether the Heaven and Earth Furnace will have the same changes."

"Of course, if there is a chance, it would be best to find a group of more powerful and serious monsters to experiment with!"
