At the same time.
Flying Jade Peak.
At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan had already moved everything from their original cave abode here.
It had to be said that the spiritual qi in this new place that Shen Yuanlong had arranged for them was indeed much richer than their original cave abode.
At this moment, in the cave abode on Flying Jade Peak.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan sat opposite each other.
In front of them was a bottle of Brilliant Star Spiritual Dew.
Neither of them spoke at this moment, but a layer of spiritual light suddenly appeared in Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes.
Immediately, black maggots that were twisting and squirming suddenly appeared in the two bottles of Brilliant Star Spiritual Dew.
This made Jiang Chengxuan’s expression turn very ugly.
He immediately told Shen Ruyan what he had seen and said in a low voice,
“Ruyan, you’re right. Such a treasure that affects the soul can’t be used casually.
Especially since we can’t be completely sure that it’s safe…”
At this point, he warned himself in his heart.
On the path of cultivation, he really had to be on guard at all times.
Previously, he thought that since the Supreme Elder of Starlight Sect, Seven Star, was a good friend of their Ancestor Mengxue, the things he gave should not be dangerous.
He didn’t even have the slightest doubt about its safety.
Of course, this was mainly related to the other party’s identity.
Who would have thought that as a Golden Core Supreme Elder and a former “good friend” of their Ancestor Mengxue, the things he gave them as a “gift” would actually be so dangerous in a way that was hardly detectable.
If he really consumed the bottle of Brilliant Star Spiritual Dew on a blind faith, Jiang Chengxuan really did not dare to imagine the terrifying consequences.
When Shen Ruyan heard Jiang Chengxuan’s words, she snorted.
“That Seven Star is indeed a good chess player.
You probably don’t know what those black maggots you saw with your Heavenly Eyes are, right?”
Before Jiang Chengxuan could reply, Shen Ruyan continued,
“That’s a Soul Splitting Worm. The owner can attach a wisp of his soul to them.
If you consume this Soul Splitting Worm, the owner of the Soul Splitting worm can use it to subtly affect your mind and make you become a different person unknowingly.
The most terrifying thing is that this worm can be used as a carrier for its master’s consciousness.
When the owner of the Soul Splitting Worm wants, he can transfer his consciousness to the worm and find an opportunity to completely replace your mind and possess your body.”
What… the…
At this moment, no matter how calm JJiang Chengxuan was, he could not help but curse in his heart.
Why would a dignified Golden Core Realm cultivator do such a despicable thing?
What kind of hatred did he have towards them to scheme against them like this?
If Jiang Chengxuan remembered correctly, this was the first time they had met.
Did he have to do that?
This was also what he could not understand the most.
If there was actually a personal grudge between him and Shen Mengxue, then as Shen Mengxue’s Dao companion, Zheng Pelong would definitely not let him enter the Ganyang Sect to pay tribute.
And Yun Dongshan would definitely not be so respectful to him.
The only explanation was that there was something that even Zheng Pelong did not know.
At the thought of this, Jiang Chengxuan calmed himself down. He looked at Shen Ruyan again and asked tentatively,
“Ruyan, did you just say that the Soul Splitting Worm can be used as a carrier for its master’s consciousness?
Could it be that Seven Star is actually…?”
“That’s right.”
Shen Ruyan nodded with a cold expression.
“I smell something rotten from him. It’s a sign that a cultivator’s lifespan is about to end.”
If that was the reason, it all made sense.
One must never underestimate what crazy things a person would do to extend their lifespan or survive when they were about to reach the end of their life.
Especially that person was not an ordinary person, but a Golden Core cultivator, an existence at the top of the cultivation world of the Yun Nation.
He would do something like scheming against the descendants of his good friend without thinking.
As long as it was needed, not to mention good friends and their descendants, some people would even be willing to sacrifice their children and parents in order to go further down the path of cultivation.
Jiang Chengxuan knew that this matter was going to be more troublesome than he thought.
It was definitely not a wonderful thing to be targeted by a Golden Core Realm cultivator.
Fortunately, the other party was not from the Ganyang Sect. He could not stay in the Ganyang Sect for long.
As long as he and Shen Ruyan didn’t step into the Starlight Sect’s territory, they should be fine for the time being.
As for whether or not they should tell this to Zheng Pelong,
Jiang Chengxuan did not even think about it.
At least for the time being, he wouldn’t even consider this.
Putting aside his status, even if he could see Zheng Pelong now, would Zheng Pelong believe what he said?
Even if Zheng Pelong did believe him, so what?
Would Zheng Pelong take the risk to fight a Golden Core Realm cultivator who was about to reach the end of his life for him?
That was simply unrealistic.
In other words, a mere Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator was nothing compared to an old Golden Core Realm cultivator.
Perhaps, some people even hoped that Seven Star could successfully possess Jiang Chengxuan’s body.
After all, he was a Golden Core Realm cultivator and one of the pillars that could support them in the fight against demon beats.
It was a good deal to exchange the life of a Foundation Establishment cultivator for the rebirth of a Golden Core cultivator.
So.
In this matter, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan had already decided that before their strength reached a certain level, they would not easily tell anyone except Shen Yuanlong and Shen Daoming.
After that.
The couple did not touch the two bottles of Brilliant Star Spiritual Dew again. Instead, they temporarily sealed them.
After doing this, Jiang Chengxuan no longer hesitated and walked straight into his cultivation room. He began to enter seclusion and attempt to break through to the Violet Palace Realm..
