Chapter 21: Testing

After hearing this, Shi Yue frowned. He thought for a moment, and slapped the hilt of the red dagger with his left hand. The red dagger flew out and shot towards the stone house.

With a "bang", the red dagger chopped on the stone house without leaving any trace.

Seeing this scene, Shi Yue's face was full of shock. The Red Moon Sword was a top-grade magic weapon, but it didn't leave any trace on the stone house.

"Little guy, don't bother. Not to mention that you, a Qi Refining cultivator, use a magic weapon to attack, even if a Jindan stage cultivator uses a magic weapon to attack, it can't damage the stone house at all." A faint male voice sounded.

Upon hearing this, Shi Yue's face sank. He directed the Red Moon Sword to chop the stone house continuously, but he couldn't leave any trace on the stone house.

Shi Yue took a deep breath, waved his right hand, and the Red Moon Sword circled and returned to his hand.

"Who are you, sir, and why are you hiding here?" Shi Yue asked in a deep voice.

"Hide? Ridiculous, I have been here all the time, how can I say "hide"?" The man's voice was full of disdain.

"Always here? So, you know everything I do here?" Shi Yue frowned, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"I know, don't worry, I won't hurt you, otherwise I would have done it long ago, little guy, do you want to become a strong man?" The man said in a tempting tone.

"Of course I do, what? Can you help me?" Shi Yue narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice.

"Hehe, I dare not say anything else, but it is no problem for you to condense the Nascent Soul before you are a hundred years old." The man laughed, and his words were full of confidence.

"Condensed the Nascent Soul within a hundred years?" Shi Yue's breathing was a little hurried when he heard this.

The fact that Taixu Sect can gain a foothold in the Tang Dynasty, in addition to the exquisite alchemy, has a very important relationship with the Supreme Elder of the Nascent Soul stage in the sect.

To put it bluntly, a Nascent Soul cultivator can walk sideways in the Tang Dynasty, and no one dares to offend him.

If Shi Yue becomes a Nascent Soul cultivator, not only will Wang the Steward dare not bully him, but the head of the Taixu Sect will also be polite to Shi Yue.

However, Shi Yue never believed that pie would fall from the sky. Suddenly, someone came out and said that he could help him condense the Nascent Soul before the age of 100. This was impossible no matter how you looked at it. The other party said this, most likely for other purposes.

Suddenly, Shi Yue thought of a terrible thing: "When his parents were alive, they told him a lot of secrets and legends about the world of immortal cultivation, among which they mentioned possession of bodies many times. Some high-level cultivators who made mistakes in their practice or were seriously injured would abandon their own bodies and take over the bodies of cultivators with lower cultivation than themselves.

If the possession of bodies is successful, the original owner of the body will naturally no longer be in this world.

When Shi Yue thought of this, his heart tightened, and he quickly stepped back, looking at the stone house with a nervous face.

"Why are you so far away from me? I won't eat you. I have the cultivation method of the top-level skills, and I also know how to refine weapons and pills. With my help, you will have no problem condensing your Nascent Soul before you are 100 years old." The man's voice was full of confidence.

"I don't believe that pie will fall from the sky. You have a purpose to help me improve my realm!" Shi Yue's eyes were full of suspicion.

"Hehe, of course there is a purpose. I will help you improve your realm. How about you give me spirit stones?"

"How much?" Shi Yue asked after a moment of hesitation.

"It depends on what you want. If it is just an ordinary skill, dozens of spirit stones will be enough. If it is a complete top-level skill, tens of thousands of spirit stones will be needed."

"Are you a weapon spirit?" Shi Yue was silent for a while and asked.

He heard his parents say that generally speaking, in order to increase the power of magic weapons, a powerful spirit will be sealed as a weapon spirit when refining magic weapons.

"Weapon spirit? Well, that's about right!"

"This is the first time I've heard that weapon spirits need to eat spirit stones. You are not sealed here by someone, and you need to absorb the spiritual energy in the spirit stone to break the seal!" Shi Yue said uncertainly, his eyes full of suspicion.

"Hmph, how can you, a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, know the magical effect of the Heavenly Pearl? Believe it or not, if you want to get advanced cultivation techniques or other classics, you can come to me. Let's make it clear that I will give you spirit stones first and then the goods."

After hearing this, Shi Yue's face was uncertain for a while, and he left the mysterious space.

A mysterious man appeared out of nowhere in the mysterious space, and Shi Yue's face was full of sorrow.

Based on the voice of the mysterious man, Shi Yue judged that the mysterious man was not young, probably in his fifties or sixties. The other party was definitely not a weapon spirit. It is very likely that for some reason, he was sealed in the stone house in the mysterious space and could not leave for the time being.

The mysterious man wanted to obtain the spirit stone from Shi Yue. It is estimated that if he absorbs enough spiritual energy, the mysterious man will be able to break the seal. At that time, Shi Yue will be the first to suffer.

When Shi Yue thought of a mysterious man hiding in the mysterious space and taking over his body at any time, his face became extremely gloomy, because the excitement of having three acres of spiritual fields was swept away.

This is normal. Anyone who knows that he may be taken over by others at any time will probably not be happy.

Shi Yue thought about it and decided not to enter the mysterious space before he could come up with a countermeasure, otherwise it would be troublesome if the other party took advantage of the opportunity to take over his body.

Of course, all this was just Shi Yue's guess. He knew too little about the information on possession and could not make a very accurate judgment. He did not know the actual situation.

As for asking for help from his master, Shi Yue had never thought about it. Once he asked for help from his master, it would be equivalent to exposing the secret of the mysterious space, and he would not know how he died.

He thought about it for a while and planned to go to the Sutra Pavilion to check the classics about possession to see if he could find a countermeasure.

After thinking about it, Shi Yue left the yard and flew to the Sutra Pavilion.

Shi Yue stayed in the Sutra Pavilion for a day before he found a classic that recorded possession. He spent ten spirit stones to copy the content.

When he returned to his residence, Shi Yue immediately took out the copied jade slip and pasted it between his eyebrows.

A quarter of an hour later, Shi Yue put down the jade slip with a thoughtful look on his face.

There are three iron rules for possession:

First, immortal cultivators cannot possess mortals, otherwise the possessed body will collapse because it cannot withstand the possession behavior.

Second, only immortal cultivators with high mana can succeed in possessing the body of immortal cultivators with low mana without suffering backlash from the other party, and the greater the difference in mana between the two, the safer it is.

Third, an immortal cultivator can only possess a body once in his life, regardless of the level of mana. If he does it for the second time, his soul will die for no reason.

The jade slip mentions several methods to restrain possession. The first one is talismans. Some talismans can prevent oneself from being possessed by others, but these talismans are not only valuable, but also disposable.

There are also some special magic tools that can have similar effects as long as they are carried with them. Of course, these magic tools are more expensive.

In addition, some special spiritual patterns can be directly engraved on the flesh, which can also restrain possession to a certain extent, but this practice has certain sequelae.

Of these three methods, the third one is naturally the easiest to do.
