Chapter 1944 - Believe in yourself
Chapter 1944: Believe in yourself
Even with the protection of Senior White, I wasn’t able to prevent my bad luck from taking over. Just how bad is my luck today?
Song Shuhang’s liver ached.
The shadow of the Indestructible Lord’s obsession was still pouring into his body. If this continued, he would be overwhelmed by the power inside the shadow before Shadow Sanctum could even properly take effect.
Under normal circumstances, if the power of the obsession was a bit too strong, Song Shuhang would have turned on his pseudo-eternity smoke mode before his body exploded.
However, what he summoned this time was the obsession of the Indestructible Lord. Song Shuhang had experienced for himself just how strong the Indestructible Lord’s desire for eternity was, and he did not want to experience it a second time.
Therefore, it was best for him to avoid entering the pseudo-eternity state unless it was absolutely necessary. If not, he might just draw over the demonic heads formed from the demonic will of the Indestructible Lord and cause the situation in the scholarly faction to become even messier.
When his thoughts reached this point, not only was his liver aching, but his stomach also began cramping.
Behind his waist, the black Scarlet Heaven Sword encouraged him, “You got this, Song Shuhang. You can definitely do it. Believe in yourself!”
Song Shuhang gritted his teeth and circulated his three top-tier body-tempering techniques to bear the power of the obsession.
The Holy Apes holding Scholarly Scriptures in their hands began chanting loudly, while the ?Variant Steel Hands Technique? turned Song Shuhang’s skin black. As soon as the three body-tempering techniques began operating, the pressure he was feeling from the obsession pouring into him decreased significantly.
At this time, the virtuous lamia appeared and suddenly began singing, “Believe in yourself, ooh~ You will win and create miracles~ Believe in yourself, ooh~”
The “ooh~” in the song was very magical, and Song Shuhang almost sang along with her.
But after the virtuous lamia sang those few lines, she stopped. She was only playing around a little, and she was strangely reliable when it came to life and death situations.
She stretched out her hand and placed it on Song Shuhang’s body, circulating the ?Dual System Virtue Technique? to relieve some of the pressure on Song Shuhang with the power of virtue.
The black Scarlet Heaven Sword remained behind Song Shuhang’s waist. It could not relieve the pressure on Song Shuhang like the virtuous lamia, but what it could do was absorb and store the power that leaked out of Song Shuhang. As long as it accumulated enough energy, it could also assist Song Shuhang by slashing out a Heaven Burning Flaming Saber like its main body.
At the same time, it added, “Even if you die, you will go out with a bang!”
“Life is as gorgeous as summer flowers, and death is as quiet and beautiful as autumn leaves,” said Pavilion Master Chu’s hair as it swayed in the wind, also silently absorbing some of the power that leaked out.
“Don’t put up flags for me, Seniors.” Song Shuhang concentrated on absorbing the energy, and all of the hairs on his body stood on end. An incomparably vast amount of spiritual energy enveloped him, and the primordial power of the Indestructible Lord came to him from all directions.
Everyone around him got some information from this primordial power. As long as one encountered and managed to experience the power of an Immortal with their body, they would find themselves with some comprehension of it. In particular, when it came to an existence from the primordial era like the Indestructible Lord, they would come in contact with a taboo-like energy.
Senior White’s clone said, “Hm? This energy feels quite familiar.”
Song Shuhang nodded. “We fought this guy on Heavenly Field Island last week. The power of the Indestructible Lord, the wisps of its demonic will turned into the demonic heads, and its obsession turned into tentacles. At that time, a large portion of the demonic heads had been taken down by Senior Creation’s singing... and the obsession of the Indestructible Lord was drawn away by the giant turtle of disaster.”
“Oh, so that’s what it was.” Senior White finally understood why he had felt the energy to be quite familiar.
The main body of the Indestructible Lord was in deep slumber. Its demonic will and obsession had replaced it to collect information about “eternity” across the universe. Then, when they broke into the main world to pursue Skylark, they were destroyed by the Scholarly Sage.
The Sage also left behind a lot of backups, including the voice of Dharma King Creation, which specialized in restraining the Indestructible Lord’s demonic will.
At this moment, the black-skinned Soft Feather said, “Senior Song, your body is breaking.”
Song Shuhang replied, “Ah, I can see that, Soft Feather.”
There were small cracks all over Song Shuhang’s body.
“Sure enough, I still can’t bear this power. If this continues, my body will explode soon.” Song Shuhang waved his hand and opened the Inner World. “Everyone, enter my Inner World and hide. Senior White, do you have a way to transfer me to a remote and uninhabited place? I’m going to activate my smoke mode.”
Senior White’s clone said, “Sure, just give me a few moments.”
Then, he raised his sleeve, revealing his white forearm.
On the arm of Senior White’s clone was a tattoo that looked like a little snake.
Senior White reached out and grabbed the tattoo, removing it with a forceful pull.
He shook it lightly, and the tattoo inflated, turning into a long rope.
Senior White’s clone grasped both ends of the long rope and skillfully turned it into a short, fancy jump rope.
“The embodiment of the Indestructible Lord’s demonic will.” Song Shuhang finally remembered what it was.
This was the fragment of the Indestructible Lord’s demonic will that had parasitized Song Shuhang’s body on Heavenly Field Island. Later on, it had been pulled out by Senior White’s clone and changed from 3D to 2D, and then into a long rope.
“Yup,” Senior White’s clone said. “I placed it on my arm for a few days and purified it thoroughly. Although it is still a wisp of demonic will of the Indestructible Lord, it belongs to me now.”
After saying that, Senior White’s clone threw the wisp of demonic will at Song Shuhang.
The demonic will was like a long snake as it wrapped around Song Shuhang’s neck.
“It won’t burrow into my body again, right?” Song Shuhang already had some trauma from this thing.
Senior White said, “Don’t worry, that won’t happen. It will just stick to you like a tattoo—”
In the next moment, the virtuous fat whale that the lamia was riding jumped up and swallowed the Indestructible Lord’s demonic will in a single go.
Then, it leaned against Song Shuhang’s back, returning to his body.
A tattoo appeared on Song Shuhang’s back.
It was of a huge whale with its mouth open, a snake sticking out of it.
The tattoo actually looked quite good.
As soon as the tattoo appeared, Song Shuhang felt that the connection between him and the obsession above his head had become stronger.
The terrifying power no longer continued to pour into his body. Instead, a black hole condensed above Song Shuhang’s head.
The Indestructible Lord’s obsession had begun to manifest.
The sudden increase in power gave Song Shuhang an illusion of invincibility.
He clenched his fists slightly, wanting to let out an emotional sigh.
The virtuous lamia snatched his line, “Please call me Song ‘Super Awesome’ Shuhang.”
