Chapter 262 The Mysterious Puppy
Chapter 262: The Mysterious Little Dog
“Senior, do you really have a way to call back my Junior Brother’s Soul?”
Yue Chan looked at the palm-sized dog in front of her, its fur dark red, giving off a feeling of having experienced countless years, and asked in confusion.
“Wu Zhong Immortal King is my brother, Reincarnation Immortal King is my Junior Brother. Don’t worry, this small matter is on me,” Little Dog said, patting its dog belly with a serious expression.
However, its eyes held a hint of greed, constantly fixated on the purple-gold divine tea tree in Yue Chan’s hand, as well as the two-horned Reincarnation Disk.
“Senior, if you can awaken my Junior Brother, these things can naturally be given to you,” Yue Chan said, her voice like a heavenly melody, very pleasant to listen to.
“Soul, come back…”
Little Dog immediately chanted a spell, its canine teeth gleaming, and mysterious symbols bloomed one after another, merging into the Void Realm.
This was like a Soul-calling song, ascending to the Nine Heavens and descending into the Nine Hells, shaking one’s Soul, as if it could be heard from an infinite distance.
Yue Chan was surprised. A Qing Yue glowed, and she actually understood some of it. These were scriptures from the Immortal Ancient era, possessing incredible penetrating power.
In an instant, she trusted the words of this unexpectedly dug-up Little dog a bit more, believing it to be an immortal grand figure from the Immortal Ancient era.
At this moment, mysterious symbols flew out of Little Dog’s mouth, dazzling beyond compare, like characters cast from metal, imprinted into the Void Realm.
Inside the dark cage, Lin Fan’s Primordial Spirit was stunned, looking at the person in front of him who looked exactly like him, greatly shocked.
“Who are you? Why do you have my appearance?” Lin Fan’s expression was solemn. He was very wary of this person who suddenly appeared.
“I am you!” That person stood there, and though very peaceful, he gave off a feeling of being the sole sovereign.
Lin Fan was astonished but still somewhat disbelieving, thinking this was a trick by the darkness, replicating a false self to disturb his mind.
However, the newcomer just stood there, saying nothing, and did not attack him as he had imagined.
Lin Fan breathed a sigh of relief. It would not be a good thing to fight here. Once Primordial Spirit Power was consumed, it could not be replenished.
Moreover, he might not even be able to defeat the opponent. The aura alone was too overwhelming, as if he were facing an emperor.
“But how can I escape and leave this cursed place?”
Lin Fan pondered. The darkness was boundless, where was the way back?
He wanted to get out, unwilling to miss a great era. There were still many things and people in the outside world he wanted to see.
However, the cage was cold and eerie, as black as ink. He couldn’t touch anything, only drift with the river of time, unable to leave.
In just an instant, it felt like a very long time had passed, ten years, a hundred years… His heart was almost cold, and his eyes gradually dimmed.
“Senior, why hasn’t my Junior Brother’s Primordial Spirit returned yet?” Yue Chan asked, staring at the green seed. Although it was full of vitality, there was no Soul fluctuation.
Little Dog was drenched in sweat, panting heavily, and said guiltily, “Cough, this venerable one just woke up from slumber and is still a bit unaccustomed. Let me recover for a while.”
“Of course, if there were sacred elixirs or similar items, my recovery speed could be even faster…”
At this point, Little Dog’s eyes again fixed on the items in Yue Chan’s qiankun bag.
Although Yue Chan was suspicious, feeling that this dog was unreliable and just trying to trick her into giving it food and drinks, she still gave it a drop of Immortality Spring.
Immediately, the golden liquid exuded fragrance, like a small Dragon swimming in the Void Realm, containing the Qi of longevity.
“Immortal Spring Essence!” Little Dog’s big eyes gleamed with brilliance. It leaped high and immediately opened its mouth to swallow it.
Afterward, it licked its lips, seemingly still wanting more, and urged, “Quick, a few more drops.”
“There’s no more. This item is very precious, and I can’t carry it all with me. However, once Senior saves my Junior Brother, I will immediately return home to fetch it for you.”
Yue Chan was very intelligent and saw through this dog’s insatiable greed, so she naturally wouldn’t hand everything over at once.
Little Dog’s fur was dark red, and its big eyes rolled around. It then chanted scriptures again, performing a mysterious ancient art to call the Soul.
“Eh, what is this sound? It seems like someone is calling my Soul?”
Lin Fan was astonished, as if a ray of dawn had appeared in the darkness. He urgently wanted to follow the source of the sound and get out.
However, he was enveloped by the darkness, forming a cage that trapped him there, making it difficult to break free and leave.
“I want to go back!” Lin Fan shouted. It was not easy to be reborn in this life, and too many things had happened. How could he be willing to be trapped here?
Moreover, a voice within him kept reminding him that there were important things he needed to do, things to make up for, and he couldn’t fall here.
“Boom!”
Lin Fan fought for his life, recklessly using his Primordial Spirit Power, giving his all, unleashing his strongest attack, wanting to break open this place.
With a hum, the dark cage trembled, as if it was distorted, but it still couldn’t be broken open; the power was not enough.
“Again!”
Lin Fan roared, exerting all his strength, continuously unleashing secret arts. The Heaven-Defying Merit drove six precious arts, instantly combining them into one strike.
“Pfft!”
Lin Fan stumbled back, falling into the darkness. His Primordial Spirit shook violently, rapidly weakening, almost dissipating.
However, the cage only trembled; it didn’t break open. Instead, he suffered a backlash and was severely wounded.
“Ah… Am I going to be trapped in this place forever?”
“I’m really unwilling!”
Lin Fan cried out, revealing a sense of sorrow, and even more, a sense of unwillingness and powerlessness.
If he was gone, would anyone remember him?
Pretty Sister, Yue Chan, Qingyi… What would those familiar people do if they saw he didn’t return?
“Are you just giving up?” A voice sounded, coming from the other him. The two looked at each other.
“Hmm?” Lin Fan was surprised, as if saying, “Why are you still here?”
Outside, Yue Chan waited anxiously. When the chanting stopped again, she immediately panicked, biting her red lips.
“No, that boy might be trapped in the dark cage. I also have no way to call back his Primordial Spirit,” Little Dog said, panting and shaking its head.
“Dark cage?” Yue Chan didn’t understand and asked it for an explanation.
“This involves the uncanny. Even Immortal Kings find it hard to explain what’s inside, but some also say it’s a curse, specifically targeting Heaven-Defying beings of talent and ability. Once deeply trapped within, even Immortal Kings can be ensnared.”
“What?!” Yue Chan was greatly shocked, then her face turned pale, and her voice trembled as she said, “My Junior Brother… can’t he come back?”
“Senior, didn’t you say you were the brother of Emperor Wu Zhong and a Reincarnation Immortal King, and that nothing could stump you?”
Yue Chan stared at it.
Little Dog’s face flushed slightly, showing a rare look of embarrassment. To be suspected of boasting by a little girl was truly unbearable.
Originally, seeing the Qing Yue Flame on Yue Chan, it thought of the Qing Yue Female Immortal and planned to coax her into becoming its Disciple, but now that its task had failed, it was truly losing face.
“Um… I’ll try again, but I’ve just woken up and don’t have enough Divine Power. I’ll pass this scripture on to you. Using it together should have a better effect.”
Little Dog immediately transmitted the Immortal Ancient language to her.
Unexpectedly, it had thought it would take Yue Chan a long time to master it.
As a result, she quickly became familiar with it and could even initially perform the scripture, which greatly shocked the palm-sized Little dog.
“Can people in this world really undergo Reincarnation?” Little Dog muttered, thinking of what the female immortal had said before her death, and a chill ran down its spine.
