Chapter 979: Poor "Old Voice" (1/2)

# Bonus chapter

'Th...this is..'

Even the old man was shocked to see the nearly ice statued Ajax.

However, what shocked him, even more, was the Pure Cursed Energy that he absorbed earlier was being depleted at an incredible speed.

'Damn it...where is it going?'

The old man was unable to find the exact traces of where his Pure Cursed Energy was going and who was sucking him dry with such a crazy absorption speed.

'I don't have time to think about it. I need to save this kid; otherwise, I might die.'

He was unable to concentrate on the 'Bastard' that was absorbing the Pure Cursed Energy from his body because he still didn't know why was connected to Ajax despite being able to form a partial spirit consciousness.

Nevertheless, he didn't want to take the risk because what if Ajax dies and he would die along with him?

He was barely able to save his small portion of spirit consciousness from his previous bad situation. Now, if something happens to Ajax, he would die for real.

'Damn it….I just came out and now I have to go back.'

'Swoosh'

The old man cursed at his bad luck; however, without wasting any time, he directly entered into Ajax and tried his best to remove the side effects of Cursed Energy.

'Wait a second! Why was his body freezing all of a sudden? Don't tell me he is the 'Bastard' who is sucking all my Pure Cursed Energy?'

Once the old man entered Ajax's body, he was able to stabilize Ajax's condition and at the same time, he realized that Ajax was the one who was absorbing his Pure Cursed Energy.

However, he could not do anything to Ajax except for sighing.

'Since he was stabilised, I will go out and absorb more Cursed Energy. I don't think he will continue to absorb all my Pure Cursed Energy.'

As a cultivator who seemed to know everything about Cursed Energy, he knew it was impossible for anything to absorb Cursed Energy continuously without a break.

So, he wanted to go out and absorb Cursed Energy.

'Moreover, in that place, I can easily replenish everything I lost in a couple of minutes.'

The old man thought to himself as he tried to come out.

'Huh?'

'What is happening to me? Why can't I come out of his body?'

All of a sudden, the old man got stuck by something that made him unable to come out of Ajax.

'No...my Pure Cursed Energy is completely empty.'

Soon, all the Pure Cursed Energy stored in his spirit consciousness disappeared without a trace as he returned back to his previous state where he could only talk occasionally.

'I need to convince him to rotate my 'Mysterious spirit cultivation technique' along with his main cultivation technique.'

Soon, the old man became anxious because he knew he could not stay in his current form for much time and he would once again enter into slumber.

...

'Ding,

+10 units of Cursed Energy entered into the host's body and converted into  0.1 percent of one unit of Astral Energy.
