Chapter 2750: Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell

remarkable to have so many artists. But Gao Xiaogong can't slap himself in the face after all.He said, "It's so-so. These people are somewhat famous in the Chinese entertainment industry, but they are...Yuan Huai Ren's palm strike didn't seem to have much force, but after the blow, his aura dissipated, his eyes lost their luster, and with a thud, he fell to the ground, lifeless.

All present were cultivators, the lowest cultivation level having reached the Void Core stage. Each one could see clearly.

At this moment, Yuan Huai-ren not only had his physical life extinguished, but his soul also completely dissipated into nothingness.

Although a body was left behind, it was dead beyond recognition.

"Hall Master..."

Fengxi Jiu and Lu Wu yang and others let out a cry of sorrow, they all gathered around, looking at Yuan Huai ren's corpse with eyes full of sadness and anger.

In their eyes, it was the Tonghai Alliance and Ye Bufan who forced their hall master to death.

"Let's go!"

Lu Wuyang directly picked up Yuan Huai's body, and with the people of Lancang Hall, he prepared to leave.

"Hold on!"

Yet Ye Bufan stepped forward to block everyone's path.

Fengxi Nine frowned coldly, "What do you want to do The master is dead, are you going to desecrate the body out of vengeance"

Lu Wu Yang's eyes were also filled with anger: "That's right, before you Tong Hai League promised, don't you want to go back on your word now"

Ye Bufan, however, completely ignored the two men. In a flash, he appeared before Lu Wuyang and reached out to grab Yuan Huai's corpse.

"You..."

Lu Wu Yang was incredibly angry. In his view, Ye Bufan was trying to destroy the hall master's corpse.

He wanted to resist, but unfortunately his cultivation level was too far behind.

With Ye Bufan's current cultivation, even without using the power of the formation, a Nascent Soul cultivator wouldn't have the slightest ability to resist.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he swiftly moved his right hand to Yuan Huai's body like lightning, but instead of touching the corpse, he grabbed a jade pendant from his chest.

When everyone reacted, Ye Bufan had already retreated again, playing with the dark green jade in his hand.

What is this Is there something magical about it Or is it particularly precious

Ye Bufan's action immediately piqued everyone's curiosity, and they all looked at the ancient jade together.

Including the people in the Lancang Hall, they all looked over with fiery eyes.

Fengxi Jiu looked at it for a long time but couldn't see anything special about the stone, and couldn't help but say.

"Young Master Ye, no matter what, this is considered a relic of the Hall Master, and it's not something particularly precious. It wouldn't be appropriate for you to take it, would it"

"Is that so"

Ye Bufan's mouth curled up into a playful smile. He ignored everyone in Lancang Hall and instead lowered his head to look at the black ancient jade in his hand.

"Master Yuan, what do you think Is it appropriate"

""

Now everyone was shocked by him, not understanding what he meant. What did a stone have to do with Yuan Daren

"What's wrong with this guy What is he trying to do Is he crazy"

"I don't know, why are you calling Master Yuan while facing the stone Didn't Master Yuan already commit suicide"

"Is this guy just being pretentious, or does he really want to possess this ancient jade Maybe it's some kind of rare treasure..."

The crowd buzzed with shock and astonishment, even the anger in the hearts of those within the Lancang Palace seemed to lessen.

After Ye Bufan finished speaking, the stone in his hand remained unresponsive.

He chuckled again, "Old Man Yuan, still playing dead You think that'll fool me"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yujing couldn't help but ask: "Ye Yixian, what do you mean Could it be that there is some kind of mystery hidden within this jade"

"Zhang Mengzhu might not know this, but this is no ordinary ancient jade. It's called a Soul-Storing Stone, and its greatest function is to store the spiritual essence of cultivators."

Generally speaking, if a cultivator's physical body perishes, their primordial spirit must find a suitable vessel as soon as possible to possess and be reborn. Otherwise, if too much time passes, they will inevitably end up scattered and destroyed.

But with this thing, it's completely different. Not only can it allow the soul to live for a long time, but it's also not easy to be discovered, it's definitely a rare treasure!

The only drawback is that it can only be used once.

Zhang Yujing's jaw dropped: "Doctor Ye means that Yuan Huai's primordial spirit didn't dissipate, but is trapped inside this ancient jade"

Upon hearing this, everyone in Lancang Hall turned to look at Ye Bufan, their eyes filled with shock and anticipation for his answer.

"That's right, the old fox really played a good trick."

Ye Bufan said, "The Immortal Master played a tragic hand with us, sacrificing himself to buy the lives of everyone in the Lancang Palace."

It looks great and tragic, but it's actually a cover-up to achieve the goal of escaping like a cicada shedding its shell.

When he struck with that palm just now, it only shattered the vitality of his fleshly body. His primordial spirit left the Dantian Palace first and entered the Soul Storage Stone.

“When the people from Lancang Hall took him out, he would choose a promising disciple from among them at the right moment to seize and be reborn. This plan could be said to be perfect.”

After Ye Bufan finished speaking, everyone in the Lancang Hall looked astonished.

I was just deeply saddened by the Lord's demise, never expecting that there was such a huge conspiracy hidden behind it. Each one of us could potentially become a vessel for possession.

"You... you're lying, this is impossible."

Feng Xi Jiu stood up to oppose, but she herself felt a little unsure, not knowing why subconsciously she felt that what the man in front of her was saying was right.

After Ye Bufan finished speaking, he exerted a slight force, and the ancient jade in his hand instantly turned into a cloud of powder.

At that moment, a white light shot up, transforming into Yuan Huai-ren's figure in mid-air. It was his primordial spirit.

Now there was an uproar in the room, everyone's faces filled with shock. It turned out that this old thing wasn't really dead, he had just pulled off a golden cicada escaping its shell trick.

The disciples of the Lancang Hall, who had previously been filled with anger and grief, now realized that they had been used by their master all along. They feared that after leaving the hall, they might even be taken over.

Lu Wu yang even threw the corpse in his arms to the ground. He was an outstanding disciple of Lancang Hall, not a fool.

Once Yuan Huai-ren left, he would become the prime candidate for possession.

After all, within the entire sect, himself and Fengxi Jiu were the two with the best aptitude. And since the other party was a woman, the best candidate could only be himself.

"Boy, how did you see through it"

Yuan Huai Ren was about to go mad, his plan not only failed but also cost him a physical body and a soul-storage stone.

After Yin Weiyong and Han Qiong's deaths, he saw the power of the Heavenly Thunder Seven Kills Formation. Knowing that with his own cultivation, there was no way to withstand it and escape.

But this guy was crafty and immediately came up with a way to get away like a golden cicada escaping its shell.

In his view, everything he had done could be said to be meticulously planned, approaching perfection. But he never expected to be seen through at a glance by the other party.

"It's simple, because I know you have this soul stone!"

Ye Bufan said, "Originally, a single stone wouldn't prove anything. But you cunning old fox, why would you sacrifice yourself for others This is clearly abnormal."

"When they're stacked together, it becomes obvious your scheme isn't very clever."

"You little brat surnamed Ye, just you wait! This old man won't let you get away with this!"

Yuan Huai-ren roared with anger, then transformed into a white light and fled outside the Heavenly Thunder Seven Kills Formation.riven back. He was absolutely furious.Then it charged again, this time unleashing its full power. Its massive bear paw slammed down, causing the surrounding space to tremble violently, as if on the ve...
