“But why is it that all of his soulslaves died as well?” Ning pointed towards the corpses of the h the Void As soon as Old Man Yuan had died, all of his soulslaves had silently passed away as well “If he has a true body…his true body and his Primaltwin should share the sa his soulslaves When his Priht?”
“Spot on” Godfiend Witherspike’s incarnation sighed “Logically speaking, after he died he should’ve i to do as ardless of the price”
“And yet…he did not”
“Instead, when he died he willed all of his soulslaves to die as well” Godfiend Witherspike’s incarnation smiled “That’s because he didn’t want you to realize that he still had a true body around”
“He didn’t want us to know?” The an to understand
Godfiend Witherspike’s incarnation glanced at Ning, then let out a sigh “Sword Ihten the Mindlord”
“Frighten?” Ning frowned
“Yes You are starting to scare him” Godfiend Witherspike continued, “Because of what Old Man Yuan, the Three Realms has suffered far, far tooto do al on his flesh and drinking his blood If you all knew that he had a true body out there…it’s entirely possible that you would choose to venture out into the Badlands Territory to seek revenge upon him”
“All of you have rele chaosworld, with no one to provide you with any guidance…and yet, you all have still ed to train to such levels of power This is even more true for you, Sword I, and your sword-arts are particularly terrifying Very few Elder Gods or Ancestral Immortals would be a match for you In fact, not even the Mindlord’s true body would necessarily be a match for you! And you’ve only trained for a bit over a thousand years…given your potential, it is entirely possible that you ht become a World God!”
“If you were to seek hie…you tell htened by this possibility?” Godfiend Witherspike’s incarnation smiled “If you were to perpetually remain at your current level of power, he wouldn’t be worried; he’s protected by God E far too quickly He can’t help but feel afraid…and so, in the uished the souls of all his soulslaves, putting on a show of being truly slain This was all for the sake of deceiving you”
Ning nodded
It made sense Even if Old Man Yuan had ordered his soulslaves to launch an all-out assault, Ning would’ve been able to effortlessly wipe the instead
“Ahaha…well, I’ve said everything I’ve come to say” Godfiend Witherspike’s incarnation sreat ures like us I’hed, his incarnation slowly dissipated and faded away
Far away, at the very end of the Three Real in the Void here
Inside the castle
“Mindlord…hmph You wanted to make a clean break and avoid any future troubles? A pity for you that I’ve stirred up the trouble you wanted to avoid” Godfiend Witherspike laughed coldly ‘Old Man Yuan’ truly had put on a perfect show; Ji Ning and the others had no idea that ‘Old Man Yuan’ still had a true body outside the Three Realms, much less what his true identity was It really would’ve been difficult for thee on him
But now…Godfiend Witherspike had told the
“Master, did you just say that Ji Ning slew the Mindlord?” Saber was shocked “Is Ji Ning really that powerful?”
“He really is” Godfiend Witherspike thought back to that final clash, when Ji Ning’s terrible sword-art had easily pierced through Old Man Yuan’s palhtened the Godfiend
The ‘Heartsword’ stance was a technical stance Ji Ning was now a half-step World God, and his body was filled with incredible power An incredible technique, matched with incredible power…and a Dao weapon as well!
“Of all the Elder Gods and Ancestral Immortals I’ve ever seen, he can rank in the top three” Godfiend Witherspike sighed softly The reason he said this was because he had seen how terrifyingly brilliant Ji Ning’s final sword-art had been If Ji Ning merely relied on powerful divine abilities and his Dao weapon, he would be nothing e brute…but the Heartsword stance had truly allowed him to unleash his power in a perfect manner
“He’s that powerful?!” Saber was truly shocked now
Was this a joke? Godfiend Witherspike had been alive for ages now, and had seen more than a hundred individuals on the same level as the Mindlord Despite all that, he actually dared to clai could rank in the top three?
“Let’s go To be able to watch as two figures of such power battled to the death…this entire trip orth it” Godfiend Witherspike no longer harbored any olden castle flew out of the Void, entering the endless pri journey through it
After listening to Godfiend Witherspike’s words, Ning had a feeling that the man had told them the truth
This was because Old Man Yuan had once said this to Witherspike: “Witherspike, do you still remember that black lotus?” When Witherspike had heard those words, he had been so terrified that he immediately fled The ‘black lotus secret art’ which Old Man Yuan had used had also been truly formidable
“Old Man Yuan? Mindlord?” A killing intent arose once ’s breast
He was going to venture into the endless primordial chaos eventually
All signs pointed to Old Man Yuan being the Mindlord; Ning assessed that there was at least an 80 chance of this being the case After Ning ventured off into the Badlands Territory, he would probably be able to quickly verify whether or not this was the case A technique as powerful as that black lotus art had to be quite famous Not just anyone could be allowed to learn it!
“Darknorth…can the Seamless Gate rejoin the Three Realms once more?” The Lord of All Fiends suddenly spoke out
