The deceased was at the Dao Seed realm. Although his talent was inferior to Shen Tu Nantian, the mysterious person could only make do with it due to extenuating circumstances.
He paid a sufficient price to buy the corpse and began the second round of possession.
The crowd present looked at each other. No one stopped them, including Shen Tu Jue. Although he originally suspected that Shen Tu Nantian’s death had something to do with these two living zombies, he did not plan to pursue the matter, for these two people were too strange. They gave him an ominous feeling.
The appearance of the two people and the gigantic eye that had appeared in the middle of God Burial Abyss, had cast a dark cloud over their hearts.
While the second mysterious person was finishing his possession process, no one knew that within the body of “Shen Tu Nantian”, a wisp of black colored energy was silently rising from within “Shen Tu Nantian”‘s Dantian, and followed his broken meridians upwards.
This black colored energy was like a winding small snake. It silently swam towards the soul sea of “Shen Tu Nantian”.
The soul sea was where the Yin specter resided…
This silent black energy remained undetectable. It had already been lurking in Shen Tu Nantian’s body for a while. Previously, none of the Empyreal King Elders of the Shen Tu family clan were able to discover its presence.
However, if Yi Yun was here, he would be able to discover this black energy immediately.
It was the evil energy which Yi Yun had planted in Shen Tu Nantian’s body a year and a half ago!
This energy was extremely strange. Back at the relic trial, if not for Yi Yun’s Purple Crystal energy vision, he would not have been able to extract it from the Great Empress relic.
The evil energy back then had not matured. With the Purple Crystal, Yi Yun could easily control it.
Yi Yun had planted this evil energy in Shen Tu Nantian’s body purely out of evil intent. He wanted Shen Tu Nantian to suffer as well as shorten his lifespan.
Later on, in the Great Empress mystic realm, when Yi Yun met Shen Tu Nantian, he once again tried controlling the evil energy with the Purple Crystal. It still remained viable.
Later one, when Shen Tu Nantian was killed by Yi Yun, Yi Yun no longer focused on the evil energy within Shen Tu Nantian’s body.
Yi Yun did not realize anything special about that energy. After all, it had only survived in the Great Empress relic. And the Great Empress relic was refined by the Shen Tu family clan according to the Great Empress recipe. It was unlikely that the evil energy would be extremely powerful, no matter how highly ranked the recipe was.
However, the fact was that one of the bones, amongst the materials used by the Shen Tu family clan to refine the Great Empress relic, came from the Great Empress mystic realm…
The Shen Tu family clan did not know that this black looking and half-decayed bone, which was placed beside the Great Empress recipe, was a mysterious, ancient evil bone…
At this moment, “Shen Tu Nantian” was watching his companion taking possession of the corpse. He was standing guard.
All of a sudden, he felt a faint chill. This chill made his heart skip a beat. He focused and tried to probe for the origin of the chill with his perception. However… He failed to detect anything. The chill had already disappeared, as if it had never existed.
“Shen Tu Nantian” frowned. His probe was to no avail, so he could only explain it away as him not adapting well to the new body.
After all, he was extremely weak due to the severe injuries caused by the time seal and him possessing a new body. He lacked the ability to detect the attack of the evil energy.
This evil energy silently entered where his soul resided. Its body began to split up into numerous thin filaments as it took root inside the soul sea, as it began to slowly grow.
It was like a sprouting seed. It was still very weak, but before long, it would be able to devour everything within the soul sea…
