Chapter 336 Keen Sense of Smell
"If it were to resurrect the beings who died within the Immortal Imprisonment Tower, could it do it..." Bai Ke murmured to himself.
Seeing this, Lin Yun told Bai Ke how to use the Miaoyu Immortal Token. Bai Ke nodded and gently placed Tian Xin's body on the ground.
He then took out the Jade Token, infused it with spiritual power, and shouted:
"Miaoyu sinks to the moon, Jade Mountain Divine Stream!"
The Miaoyu Immortal Token was immediately activated, emitting a bright light. The two characters "Miaoyu" on it materialized and flew out, instantly shooting into the dome of the Imprisoning Immortal Tower.
The entire Immortal Imprisonment Tower suddenly trembled violently, and it took a full ten breaths for it to slowly recover.
The ancient and simple inscriptions of laws carved on the stone walls surrounding the ninth floor of the Immortal Imprisonment Tower flew out and gathered in the center of the hall, eventually forming a human shape.
A young man dressed in brocade robes materialized, his eyes seemingly holding a vast expanse of stars, incredibly deep. Upon landing, he slowly closed his eyes, as if adjusting to this space.
Everyone was startled by the sight, as the young man exuded a powerful aura that they could not imagine.
That aura was countless times stronger than the old man Bai Ke had killed before!
“His cultivation is definitely above the Mahayana stage, and he may very well have already attained immortality!” Lin Yun said in a deep voice.
Bai Ke raised an eyebrow, thinking, "How did the Jade Token summon such a thing? Could it be... we have to fight again? Are we doomed then?"
Before anyone could think further, the young man's body suddenly became illusory, only to return to its physical form in an instant, but everyone could see it clearly.
He is definitely not a living person!
The young man suddenly opened his eyes, and unintentionally, two dazzling beams of light emanated from them.
Then the young man slowly walked up to Bai Ke, looked at him, and said with a touch of emotion:
"Wonderful wind...sinking moon, jade mountain...divine ravine! There are actually two more sentences after this. Do you know what they are?"
His voice seemed to transcend the distant past, vast and distant, giving people an unreal feeling.
The tone and manner of the voice were very familiar to everyone; it was the very voice that would appear after passing through the first level, that solemn and dignified voice!
Faced with the powerful young man exuding a holy aura, Bai Ke felt an extremely strong sense of disgust, as if the young man was his natural enemy.
Forcibly suppressing this strange feeling, Bai Ke gritted his teeth and answered with a stiff upper lip, "This junior does not know, please enlighten me, senior."
The young man sighed and turned his head away.
His expression was complex, and his gaze was unfathomable.
He seemed to be reminiscing about something, or longing for... a distant era.
After a moment of contemplation, the young man did not dwell on his previous question, but said in a cold tone, "The Jade Immortal Decree has been activated. Holder of the decree, state your wish."
Upon hearing this, Bai Ke narrowed his eyes. The young man's reaction made him very uncomfortable, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it, so he had no choice but to put the idea aside for the time being.
He cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, pointed at Tian Xin's corpse on the ground, and asked, "I want to resurrect her. Can you grant my wish?"
Upon hearing this, the young man waved his hand lightly.
An invisible force lifted Tian Xin's corpse, her twisted limbs swaying erratically, and slowly placed her in front of the young man.
The young man placed his hand on Tian Xin's forehead, closed his eyes, and sensed her forehead.
During this process, everyone discovered that the young man's hand had passed right through Tian Xin's forehead and reached her brain!
Bai Ke's doubts deepened.
After sensing for a while, the young man slowly opened his eyes and said to Bai Ke:
"Her life force has been extinguished, and her soul has been shattered into countless fragments and vanished. Logically speaking, she absolutely cannot be resurrected..."
"So, you can't bring her back to life?" Bai Ke asked, frowning.
The young man shook his head and said with a strange expression:
"I haven't finished yet. Although she is completely dead, because she died inside the Immortal Imprisonment Tower, I have a way to revive her, but the price is too high, exceeding the scope of the Jade Immortal Decree's wishes."
"What do you mean?"
"What I mean is, I can revive her, but a single Jade Token isn't enough; you'll have to give something else in return."
Bai Ke raised his head, staring coldly at the young man, and said, word by word, "Stop talking nonsense, what do you want?"
“That depends on what you have.” The young man pointed to himself, his eyes turning strange, and said softly, “I only need things that are beneficial to the soul.”
"Heh, you're just looking out for your own benefit, aren't you?" Bai Ke sneered.
"No, no, no, this is a fair trade. You give me what I need; I'll help you achieve what you want."
The young man had a "I've got you figured out" look on his face. He thought to himself that this woman must be very important to Bai Ke.
But Bai Ke suddenly laughed. He stepped forward, brought his head close to the young man's face, and said arrogantly, "What if I say... no?"
"Haha, then forget it. But you'll probably have to change your wish," the young man replied with a smile.
"Are you not human?" Bai Ke suddenly asked.
The young man paused, then narrowed his eyes, a hint of murderous intent flashing within them. But as if considering something, he ultimately relaxed and calmly replied:
"Yes, I am now just a remnant soul."
"A mere wisp of a remnant soul, yet it possesses such formidable power. It truly makes one curious about your identity..." Bai Ke tilted his head and stared at the young man as he spoke.
"This is none of your business, is it? You should finish stating your demands and leave now!"
The young man sounded flustered, and seeing this, Bai Ke became even more certain of his guess. He pressed his advantage and said:
"Your identity is not simple; you can resonate with the Immortal Imprisonment Tower and easily control a portion of its abilities."
"hehe."
The young man's expression grew increasingly grim.
"The most terrifying thing is that you actually said you could resurrect the dead beings inside the Immortal Imprisonment Tower. Isn't that just too heaven-defying?"
"What are you trying to say? Her life force and soul fragments are still inside the Immortal Imprisonment Tower, so I naturally have a way to collect them one by one and revive her. What's so difficult about that?"
"Haha, what's so difficult about that..." Bai Ke's eyes grew brighter and brighter as he approached the young man step by step, while the young man retreated step by step, seemingly afraid that Bai Ke would touch his body.
"What? Are you afraid I'll run into you? Afraid I'll discover your secret? Afraid your remnant soul will completely dissipate? Afraid you'll never be able to be reborn? Huh?"
Bai Ke laughed wildly while demanding an explanation...
