Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?
Chapter 568 - 511: Everyone Fears Avatars Hunting Their Main Body
The deserted island where the soul fragment resided is now empty.
Long before that peculiar soul fragment left, the group from the Celestial Dao Sect also immediately evacuated.
Xin Zui’s group is absolutely a presence they don’t want to provoke; after all, the gap between those who have entered the Dao and those who have not is still too great.
Under normal circumstances, they could easily surround and block other stragglers from the Yama Hall.
But if they were to encounter these three, although reluctant to admit it, they couldn’t deny that if such a situation arose, it would be them who’d turn and run away.
"Did Han Yu refuse to cooperate?"
From Liu Zongyuan’s mouth, the elder and the others finally learned about things they were unaware of.
They hadn’t expected that after just dealing with one peddler, they ended up provoking a doctor, bringing about not a small retaliation.
And then Han Yu, this guy, silently captured Soul Stealer first, and then fought one against three, taking down Yi Hong and Wen Xiong, while Gu Feng only managed to escape embarrassingly by relying on drug-induced explosions and sacrificing others.
Most importantly, Xin Zui and his old ghosts only started to move because of Han Yu.
"Does this guy really have that many secrets to make these old ghosts take action?"
The elder deeply pondered aloud.
"He definitely has some. That Korean surname is too bizarre, certainly enough to intrigue the other side."
Liu Zongyuan, after receiving a simple treatment for his injuries so he wasn’t half-dead, nodded firmly as he recovered his mobility. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Just those strange pills are enough to make Yama Hall make a move, especially the one that kills upon consumption.
It’s simply too terrifying, even for a Divine Platform Realm cultivator; one pill would make them dead beyond doubt.
It’s not only him who found it fearsome; anyone who heard about it got chills down their spine.
Primarily, this was an undeniable fact witnessed by Liu Zongyuan himself.
That Han Yu really is terrifying, just being able to casually bring out pills that can poison to death a Divine Platform Realm cultivator, he’s certainly not a good character.
"Why didn’t he join?"
In this regard, the elder had to meticulously evaluate Han Yu’s current attitude towards the Celestial Dao Sect, as such a frightfully peculiar guy, if an enemy, would indeed be quite bothersome.
Liu Zongyuan explained with a peculiar expression. From various aspects, Han Yu’s attitude towards the Celestial Dao Sect was neither favorable nor unfavorable, neither aligning nor disliking.
He didn’t wish to join, either he didn’t take the bait of the Celestial Dao Sect’s offering, or he simply didn’t care for the so-called longevity.
Liu Zongyuan leaned towards the first possibility. After all, with such skills, who the heck needs your pie in the sky?
This left the elder in a quandary, as without any bait, there was no way to proceed.
If they really wanted him to join, they would indeed need to make room for him.
"How about making a new position?"
Liu Zongyuan tentatively asked, but the elder refused without even thinking.
"That’s impossible, I wouldn’t even dare to suggest it."
The elder shook his head.
So they could only put it aside for now, Liu Zongyuan no longer insisted, after all, Han Yu not joining the Celestial Dao Sect also has its benefits.
This guy is simply too peculiar.
Earlier, when the soul fragment mentioned it, he didn’t believe it, but after a series of incidents, he faintly sensed something amiss.
Han Yu is like a calamity star, getting into trouble wherever he goes.
For instance, they just turned back, those from the Yama Hall headed to the Central Continent to take people, and the two of them traveled to the Endless Sea Domain to avoid them.
How unlucky does one need to be to immediately run into each other upon entering the sea domain?
"Cultivators should never be so superstitious."
The elder shook his head. In the Divine Platform Realm, they were already beyond ordinary cultivators, even comparable to deities, how could they still believe in bad luck?
Heh! Liu Zongyuan bitterly smiled in his heart, this was another form of peculiar phenomena mentioned by the soul fragment.
No one believed in Han Yu either, until they suffered losses before they did.
Anyway, ever since he encountered him, he’s been pretty unlucky.
Wanting to seek him out, yet ended up being beaten half to death by Gu Feng and the other two, and before had to swallow something...
Just thinking about it made him nauseous, made him feel like vomiting immensely.
That damned little guardian...
Unconsciously, a Divine Platform Realm cultivator harbored a grudge against a little cultivator like this.
...
That damned pack of mad dogs!
Simultaneously harboring resentment in his heart was another.
Little avatar soul!
Besides cursing the group from the Celestial Dao Sect, he kept cursing another "himself," no, he was no longer "himself," that traitor deserved a dreadful fate.
His share of memory would inevitably be shared, and remaining avatars would know everything that happened here.
The traitor actually allied with the Celestial Dao Sect, and even more terrifyingly, the next step in the traitor’s plan might be hunting them down.
He wanted to become whole, to become a whole new being.
How terrifying it would be.
Initially fearing his life wasn’t abundant, and lest an accident would lead to his downfall, he meticulously cultivated the Heaven and Earth Four Division Skill, later employing long years to craft twelve spiritual treasure avatars to house soul fragments.
But he never anticipated that today would see an avatar betray, trying to overturn the celestial constellation and recollect into a single entity.
Could what is gathered be him?
Would it still be him?
Impossible, were the counterpart to succeed, the ultimate result would be the complete vanishing of the soul fragment.
Because the traitor was no longer a soul fragment.
A true soul fragment could never conceive such a notion.
That guy had betrayed, and had changed.
"Is there anyone to save me."
Beyond despair, the old specter of the Celestial Dao Sect, before leaving, not only didn’t take him along, but also sealed his body completely like a magical artifact using artifact refining methods.
At this moment, he could neither see nor speak, only sensing himself in a quiet place, with no clue of where exactly.
In fact, if his senses weren’t sealed, he would have noticed that the soil over the original pit had been refilled.
It was as if they had taken him out for a stroll and buried him again.
Celestial Dao Sect ultimately played safe, not daring to take an avatar to a refuge lightly.
"Why not take that little avatar?"
Liu Zongyuan was equally puzzled.
"Firstly, it’s unsafe; secondly, that avatar has already lost its purpose."
The elder shook his head.
Little Heaven and Earth, being such an important place, could they afford to bring an avatar’s avatar there? Should anything go wrong, the consequences would be unbearable.
Especially as the role of the soul fragment had greatly diminished, knowing from Liu Zongyuan that Yi Hong, Wen Xiong, and others had already fallen, the obtainable things were scant.
Currently, Yama Hall was left with only three old monsters along with Gu Feng and the doctor.
As for the soul fragment, the infighting among the avatars would likely keep him perpetually busy, potentially leading to the eventual disappearance of the soul fragment.
Liu Zongyuan’s expression grew more peculiar as he thought about it, given the avatar uprising was unprecedented among cultivators.
Never in the history of cultivators had such a bizarre incident occurred.
The impact was undeniably profound. Even closely speaking, the most direct impact led to the Celestial Dao Sect’s aversion towards avatar-type cultivation techniques reaching its peak.
After all, who wasn’t afraid someday the crafted avatar might turn on the master for a kill...
