In an instant, Xiao Shi’s spiritual sense swept across the coffin in the shrine and easily penetrated it. This caused Xiao Shi to clearly see a ball of black aura in the coffin through his spiritual sense. The entire black aura was filled with an evil and chaotic terrifying aura.
Xiao Shi felt that the black aura was still in a deep sleep and had not woken up. But even so, just the fluctuations emitted by this slumber made Xiao Shi very shocked.
“As expected. This coffin is the source of evil in this ancient town!” Xiao Shi was enlightened. Out of caution, he did not sweep his spiritual sense at the black aura in the coffin.
Judging from the fluctuations emitted by this ball of black gas, its position was very high. If he rashly used his spiritual sense to investigate, it might disturb the other party. Once he woke it up, Xiao Shi was worried that something terrifying would happen. This time, he came here mainly to investigate the secrets of the ancient town. He did not want to do anything beyond his ability.
Immediately, Xiao Shi steadily retracted all his spiritual senses. He took out the scroll of the Youyue’s Secret: Evil Ancient Town. He clearly saw the information on the scroll. As he came into contact with the coffin on the altar, there were new changes.
[Requirement 4: The shrine in the mayor’s room (Cracked)]
[Incident 5: In order to figure out the secret hidden in the ancient town, the itinerant cultivator, Gu Siyu, secretly sneaked into the mayor’s room and found a shrine in the other party’s room. He saw the coffin on the shrine and the evil black aura in the coffin. Gu Siyu realized that this was both a crisis and a huge opportunity. After weighing it, Gu Siyu decided to take a gamble.]
“Shit!” Xiao Shi’s pupils suddenly constricted. He realized that he had still overlooked a problem. That was, the control over his body could be taken away at any time as the matter developed. No matter what, the itinerant cultivator Gu Siyu he was currently playing was different from him in terms of personality.
The other party was not a steady person. Instead, he was a person who only cared about profit. As long as there were benefits, he would risk his life for them.
Many itinerant cultivators were the same. After ail, if they did not fight, they would not be able to stand out and there would be no resources and treasures. Everything they had was fought with their lives. They would forever walk on the tip of the knife. It was different from Xiao Shi’s calm way of doing things behind the scenes.
Therefore, when the other party saw such an opportunity, even if they knew that there was huge danger, they would risk their lives for it.
Xiao Shi directly lost control of his body. He rushed straight to the shrine in front of him and raised his hand to grab the coffin on the shrine. He pulled it down from the shrine. The moment the coffin left the shrine, the entire shrine immediately trembled violently.
As it trembled, cracks quickly covered the entire shrine at a visible speed. Then, there was a bang. The shrine collapsed, revealing a dark and deep cave. Waves of terrifying evil aura kept dissipating from the cave, causing the evil black aura in the coffin to instantly awaken.
The entire coffin trembled in Xiao Shi’s hand. Xiao Shi realized that he had control of his body again. “What the f*ck!”
The most important thing for him here was to resolve the trouble for this itinerant cultivator. All major decisions were made by the other party. He did not have the right to make a choice. However, the danger and price that the other party would have to face after choosing would need him to resolve it for him. This act of cleaning up someone’s mess made Xiao Shi very unhappy. Yet, if he did nothing, he would not be able to survive.
Whoosh!
Waves of black gas dissipated along the cracks on the side of the coffin and directly swept into Xiao Shi’s body. The evil black gas seeped in. In an instant, Xiao Shi’s body seemed to have turned black. Furthermore, these parts that had turned black no longer seemed to belong to his body. Not only was he unable to control them, but he had even lost his perception.
An unprecedentedly strong crisis immediately filled Xiao Shi’s entire mind. He could only use the power of his physical body in this place, but now that the black aura had seeped in, it was obvious that he could not fight against it with the power of his fleshly body.
After all, his body had already turned black under the infiltration of the black aura and he could not move. He could not use the physical strength in his body. The only spiritual sense and soul power he could use was useless.
Numerous black gasses kept spreading towards his brain. Xiao Shi knew that once this black aura seeped into his brain, nothing would be able to reverse the situation.
At this moment of life and death, he couldn’t care less. No matter if it was useful or not, he used all the power he could use. The black aura had already spread between his eyebrows. It gathered endlessly in the moon mark on his glabella.
Originally, his Moon Seal was just an empty shell. There was nothing inside. Now, under the convergence of this black aura, the entire moon seal was quickly filled, turning the moon seal pitch-black.
Moreover, the entire black moon seal gradually became lively, as if it was slowly turning from an inanimate object into a living creature. With a rumbling sound, the moon mark on Xiao Shi’s glabella directly turned into a pitch-black moon eye..
