Chapter 1270: Symbiosis
When the man in a green robe heard this, the purple light on his body suddenly weakened slightly, but he didn’t seem to relax his vigilance at all.
“You are worried that we will take the advantage to refine and control you when you are weak right? I can guarantee that Liu Ming will never step into the prison space without permission from now on. But correspondingly, you as a weapon spirit, can no longer absorb Liu Ming’s spiritual power. In this way, we can temporarily coexist in Liu Ming’s body independently of each other, what do you think?”
Hearing this, the man in a green robe couldn’t help showing a bit of hesitation on his expressionless face.
“You were born to be a prison’s weapon spirit, so you need a host. Now that the prison is seriously damaged, if you really kill Liu Ming here, I’m afraid you will suffer a huge recoil. When the time comes I’m afraid you will fall into a long sleep again, but at that time, it is unknown when you will meet the next suitable host.” Seeing this, Mo Tian continued with a serious face.
Hearing this, the man in a green robe turned his gaze to Liu Ming.
Liu Ming did not expect that Mo Tian would suddenly propose such an exchange condition. In shock, he quickly thought.
Although he was extremely attached to the function of the prison space in his mind, now that he was at such a critical moment of life and death, he naturally had no time to worry about these.
So after hesitating for a while, he still nodded and expressed his agreement to the conditions proposed by Mo Tian.
“In that case, I will agree to this condition. But let me be clear. As long as you guys have any intention, even if I have to crush the prison into pieces, I will definitely not let you succeed.” The man in a green robe said slowly after pondering for a long time.
“Of course we won’t do such a thing that burns me. However, I also want to remind you to not forget your duty.” Mo Tian raised his brows and said coldly.
“I don’t need you to remind me about this!” The man in a green robe replied blankly.
Seeing that the agreement was reached, the 3 people in the prison space stopped their gestures at the same time. The various auras and tumbling mist that filled the entire space gradually dispersed.
After just a while, the prison space returned to normal. The broken spherical space barrier appeared around again.
Liu Ming breathed a sigh of relief. He was about to ask something, then the man in a green robe waved his long lightly.
His vision blurred. When he saw the objects in front of him clearly again, he found that he had left the prison space and appeared in a wasteland stone forest.
At this moment, a white bubble appeared in his sea of consciousness, which was the mysterious bubble.
It was just that the current him and this mysterious bubble no longer had the flesh-and-blood connection they used to have.
Liu Ming first let out a long sigh with regret. At the same time, a sense of relief appeared on his face.
He lost the assistance of the mysterious bubble, but he also didn’t have the sense of urgency of being drained to death at any time. He became much more relaxed.
However, the next moment, his brows suddenly frowned.
In the sea of consciousness, there was a very inconspicuous gray particle. It faintly exuded a trace of very pure true demonic qi.
Liu Ming frowned. He murmured a few incantations softly, then a stream of pure spiritual power immediately rushed into the sea of consciousness and surrounded the gray particle.
However, the gray particle didn’t move at all, allowing this spiritual power to wrap it. It didn’t seem to be bothered at all.
Seeing this, Liu Ming’s eyes flashed. After the black-white real pellet suddenly burst into lights, a trace of five-color lightning arc wire appeared and roamed in his body.
The gray particle seemed to be alarmed, but apart from a slight circle of gray mist appearing on the surface, it didn’t show any abnormality.
“Senior hides in my sea of consciousness with permission, do you really want me to force you out by extreme means?” Liu Ming said in a deep voice.
“Hehe, I don’t want to stay in that dark prison anymore. Don’t worry, I won’t pose a threat to you.” Mo Tian’s words came from the gray particle.
“Senior did this kind of behavior without my permission, so I won’t believe in you no matter what.” Liu Ming said expressionlessly.
“Hehe, you really want to kill me? You must know that when my sub-soul was attached to your body, I planted a symbiotic imprint on you!”
“Symbiotic imprint?”
Hearing this, Liu Ming was startled. He made a gesture and chanted.
Sure enough, he found that there was a weak connection between his soul and the gray particle that didn’t exist before.
“Yes, the symbiotic soul imprint! Hehe, your strength has greatly increased with the help of demonization during these years, but you also gradually strengthen the imprint. It has now merged with your soul inseparably. Although I took back my sub-soul back then, it had already formed a symbiotic state with your soul. It was just that I did something when taking back my sub-soul, so you didn’t realize it. Unless I leave with initiative, otherwise if either of us dies, the other will also disappear completely from this world.” Mo Tian said with a chuckle.
“Instead of putting my fate in the hands of others, I don’t mind put an end to it with you right away.” After hearing this, Liu Ming’s expression turned cold, and he said directly.
“It seems that it is wise to prepare more chips in advance.” Mo Tian muttered to himself.
“What do you mean?” Liu Ming was moved.
“How about this, why don’t you and I make another deal?” Mo Tian was silent for a moment, then he changed the subject.
“Oh, I’m all ears.” Liu Ming frowned. A trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, but it returned to normal in an instant.
“You only need to agree to help me reconstruct my body. During this period, let me stay in your body temporarily. I can assure you that not only will I help you advance to the Mystic Comprehending State, but I will also help you within my abilities. How about this deal?” Mo Tian’s words revealed a bit of temptation.
“Although the deal sounds good, if there are no restraints, I’m afraid this deal will be just empty talk.” Liu Ming said coldly.
“If you can be so careful, I can rest assured. I can make a black oath contract again. If so, will it relieve your worries? As for the plan to let me leave your body now, don’t even think about it.” Mo Tian said solemnly.
“Okay, if there is a contract, I will agree to it for now.”
After Liu Ming pondered for a long time, he finally gritted his teeth and nodded.
Immediately afterward, he flicked his finger, and the five-color lightning arc trembled and surged toward the Real Pellet State in an instant.
Afterward, the gray particle in the sea of consciousness trembled slightly. It unexpectedly split in half. Half of which jumped out of his body and transfigured into a man in a black robe.
Liu Ming closed his eyes without hesitation and began to perform the contract ritual.
After 2 black lights entered each other’s forehead, Mo Tian said faintly,
“Now that I have sworn the oath with my soul and my life, you can rest assured.”
Seeing this, Liu Ming nodded and heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. Now that the two of them were symbiotic, and they were bound by the power of the oath, Mo Tian would not have ill intentions.
After he took a deep breath, he began to carefully look at the surrounding environment.
However, the area around this stone forest was desolate. There was no tall vegetation around. Occasionally, a few declining shrubs were covered in a circle of gray mist.
The eeriest thing was that there are wisps of demon qi floating in the air.
Liu Ming frowned and released Divine Thought in an instant.
“There’s no need to detect. If nothing goes wrong, we should be in the Thousands Demons Continent.” Mo Tian didn’t seem to feel any surprise as he said very calmly.
“Thousands Demons Continent, the continent that is dominated by demons! Why are you so sure?”
Even though Liu Ming calmed down, he couldn’t help looking pale upon hearing this.
“Now that we’re all here, I’ll tell you the truth. When Luo Hu first used prison enchantment to teleport you away, I took advantage of the situation and secretly did some tricks. The hand bone is just the beginning. The rest of the materials for reconstructing the demon body can only be collected completely in the Thousands Demons Continent.” Mo Tian said.
“Since you have already made plans, it is useless for me to say more. However, during the time I’m helping you find the materials to reconstruct the demon body, I hope you will not forget your promise.” Liu Ming’s complexion changed several times, then he could only snort bitterly.
“Of course, but before that, I’ll give this to you first.” Mo Tian smiled slightly and waved his hand. A black light stream fell into Liu Ming’s hand.
Liu Ming only felt a cold touch coming from his hand. When he glanced at it, he was shocked in his mind.
This thing was a palm-sized stone tablet. Half of which was as crystal clear as jade, and the other half was as black as ink. The middle part was a golden hourglass cluster that had faint purple patterns all over, making it look very small and exquisite.
“Celestial Tablet!” Liu Ming looked surprised.
“Yes, this is my natal magic weapon that I refined before, but for some reason, it merged with the prison. Now that I have left the prison, I naturally brought this treasure out. Now you and I are connected by souls, so there will be no obstacles to refining this thing. It is enough to increase your strength. You must know that the demons in the Thousands Demons Continent are not comparable by the same level cultivators from other continents.” Mo Tian explained slowly.
“Thank you.”
Liu Ming lightly stroked the Celestial Tablet in his hand, and he finally looked slightly at ease.
The Celestial Tablet was the most wonderful magic weapon he had ever seen, second only to the prison. Since it was the natal magic weapon of Mo Tian, a Mystic Comprehending State powerhouse, it must have other uses besides training him.
TL: Seems like Mo Tian not only wants him to reconstruct a new body. He is planning something about the prison as well…
