Chapter 484 The weird golden phoenix

"You mean, time is the same and space changes; compared with time changing and space being the same, it makes you closer?" Oujia teased.

"It's boring. I can't continue the conversation. You are too rational."

"Haha, you realize that you are making no sense, right?"

"I'm talking about family ties here. Forget it, let's get down to business. Should we fly directly to Hongfeng Realm or wait for my space magic weapon?" Jin Ziming has regarded Jinfeng's cave as a private property.

"I have calculated that a direct flight will take about thirty-two years, not including the time delayed by bad weather or starry sky robbers."

"My 'hitchhike' comes every thirty years. It might arrive in a few days after getting on the bus. If you're lucky, you might only have to wait a few months or a few years without any risk.

Of course, traveling under the stars is a unique pleasure, and I quite like it."

"Then go to hell and wait for your baby, I'm in a hurry to go back."

"All right."

The reckless man took aim and flew towards the nearest node marked by Jin Feng on the star map, traveling 5,900 miles to reach that star field.

"What now?"

"You find a place and practice on your own. I'll fly around a few more times to disperse the 'smell', and when the cave arrives, the remaining souls who will help me take care of it will be able to sense it."

The two of them had been waiting for seventeen years. Although they had not encountered any robbers, they had encountered several bad weather conditions. Fortunately, they were not in danger.

Ou Jia's cultivation has reached the peak of the integration stage, and Jin Ziming has also begun to approach the peak of Dzogchen.

On this day, the mangy man went out for another walk. After fully letting out his soul, he returned to Oujia and asked, "Oujia, do you have a clone?"

"No."

"If you break through to the Mahayana realm, you can sacrifice two clones. Do you want to make one?"

"I haven't decided yet. According to my personality, I don't bother to save an extra life, but I have to listen to my master's opinion and I can't make any arbitrary decisions."

"I always feel that it's weird to have an extra version of myself. I can't even imagine what he looks like when he looks at my wife?"

"Haha, Zi Ming, your perspective is often quite strange, or weird."

"This is human nature."

"If you can't bear it, you can send him to another dimension after refining the clone, and never let him see your family."

"Well, that's a good idea."

While the two were chatting and laughing, there was a sudden inexplicable vibration in the void, and two portals suddenly appeared, still shrouded in white mist, but the words on the doors were gone.

The reckless man was overjoyed: "The 'hitchhiker' is here!"

"Great." Ou Jia quickly stood up.

The two of them were impatient and quickly came to the door. To their dismay, the door did not open.

Ou Jia looked at him in surprise. The latter was a little embarrassed and had to shout loudly: "Senior Jin, I am Jin Ziming. The matter you entrusted has been completed. I am here today to fulfill the contract."

There was silence all around, and the door was motionless. The man had no choice but to step forward and knock on the door that was once marked "Fusion Realm Entry". At first, he was relatively cautious and gentle, but gradually became impatient and turned into banging on the door desperately.

The sound of "bang, bang, bang" continued, and Jinfeng seemed to wake up from a deep sleep and opened the door.

"Hey, it's finally open." Jin Ziming scratched his head, feeling very ashamed.

The two stepped in, and the door slowly closed. The fog dispersed in front of them, and Oujia looked around curiously, like the reckless man he once was.

"Boy, you're here. Is everything done?" A golden bell appeared in the air, and Jin Hyun's old voice came from it.

"Hey, senior, I didn't see you hiding in a Horcrux last time?"

"This is my soul-nurturing treasure. I didn't show up last time because I didn't want to see you. What's so surprising? You helped me accomplish a big thing. I'm so happy that I came out to see you. Isn't it reasonable?"

"Why is the old guy so verbose? It was not like this last time." Suspicion arose in Jin Ziming's heart, "Why did you make me wait outside the door for so long while you fell asleep?"

"I was practicing when I was disturbed by you. I opened the door after I finished. You are so annoying. Why are there so many questions? Why did you bring an outsider?"

"She's my friend."

"Hello, senior, my name is Ou Jia."

"The soul is not weak. He is not a true king yet, but he has already reached the late sixth level."

"Senior, that's a big reward."

"Jin Ziming, tell me, what big thing did you help me accomplish?"

The man was stunned for a moment and thought to himself, "Why don't you just entrust me with something?"

But he was cautious by nature, so he did not ask back, but answered honestly: "I will bring your body back to Hanqing Realm. Your wife has passed away, and I will bury you two together."

He took out the image stone, activated it, and displayed that scene. Jin Xuan could naturally tell the real thing from the fake. Whether it was the appearance of the Ice Phoenix or the layout of the North Star Palace, Jin Ziming could not fake it.

"She... also went away. Alas, the couple will never be separated from each other. I finally fulfilled her wish after death." Jin Feng was so excited that her voice trembled.

"Senior, although I have not reached the peak of the late Mahayana period and cannot make this cave recognize its master, but since I have accomplished the task, can I give you some benefits in advance?"

The reckless man had a thick face and asked for it directly in front of Oujia without any psychological barriers.

Jin Xuan pondered, and after a while, he said: "Well, I see that both of your souls are not weak, so I will grant you a super-class soul skill."

"Ah, do I participate too?" Oujia was a little surprised.

"You have a good eye for me. What's the point of me, a remnant soul, guarding these secrets? It's better to be more generous. Let go of your spiritual consciousness and I'll pass it on to you."

She was about to do as she was told, when she suddenly heard a message from Jin Ziming: "Oujia, be careful, the old guy is a little unusual, and I don't think he has good intentions. You pretend to let go, but in fact you only leave a trace of your soul to receive information."

The two of them sat down cross-legged, pretending to be waiting for a treasure, but in fact they were armed to the teeth.

The reckless man repeated his old tricks to build a second spiritual consciousness space. In the blue world, there was only a wisp of soul energy, but the mist was steaming, making it difficult to see clearly.

The real soul space has been hidden, and the "Black Sand Divine Net", silver spears, short spears and pagodas, etc., are nested layer by layer and are ready to go.

Two rays of gray light shot out from the bell and penetrated into their minds respectively. It turned out to be a skill called "Burning Heart Technique". Jin Ziming felt happy and breathed a sigh of relief.

"The old guy means what he says, it seems I'm overthinking it."

This secret manual was very complicated. The two of them were reading it while receiving it, and were shocked by the cruelty of the cultivation method.

Nearly 30% of the content was transmitted, and the soul power suddenly increased sharply. It instantly turned into a gray soul thorn and stabbed hard into the core area. Jin Ziming was caught off guard, and the soul thorn broke through the fog and penetrated into the useless soul core.

Jin Feng instantly realized that he had been deceived. The soul spear paused for a moment in the blue space and immediately discovered the hiding place of the real core.

The light and shadow flickered, and the gray spear accurately hit the outer wall of the consciousness space. Without slowing down, it stabbed forward and pierced the pagoda. The soul tower bloomed with golden light, blocking it from the outside.

Seeing that it could not be broken open, two top-quality soul weapons were shot out of the bell, which penetrated into the brains of the two men respectively, and merged with the gray spears transformed by the soul energy to become real soul spears.

The dazzling gray light bloomed, instantly piercing the soul tower and breaking the short spear. His strength was exhausted before he was blocked by the silver spear. Jin Ziming activated his soul power and forced the invading soul soldiers out.

He turned around and saw that Oujia had already driven away the Gray Spear and was holding a silver dagger in his hand, fully alert.

"These two little guys are really cunning." A strange voice came from the bell.

"Who are you? Where is Jinfeng?"

"Hey, the old guy's remaining soul has become my soul slave."

"How did you enter this cave?"

"Is it difficult? With my pure fire physique and fire-based magic, it is not difficult to find this magic weapon that consumes fire-based materials in the starry sky.

As for getting in, it's easier. Of the two portals, one of them has a significantly weaker formation. If its energy supply is cut off, why don't we break it immediately?"

"Do you want to be the master of the cave?"

"Yes, I am only half a step away from the peak of the late Mahayana realm. Whether you can reach it or how long it will take is unknown. It is only reasonable to let the magic weapon recognize me as its master."

"I helped Jinfeng fulfill his wish, but you didn't."

"Does it matter? His words have no effect anymore."

"Your true self has left the cave. You are just a main soul. Aren't you afraid that we will fight you to the death?"

"Haha, you think too highly of yourself. Even in the late Mahayana period, I didn't even break the old guy's bell. I only relied on some tricks to subdue him.

I will stand still in mid-air. If it can be breached, I will commit suicide immediately without you taking action."

"Okay, keep your word, don't hide, we will knock your 'turtle shell' right now."

He glanced at Ou Jia, and the two of them either used fists or kicks, used weapons, or joined forces to attack with souls... They tried them all. Although the bell flew around, it was still intact.

"Haha, do you believe it now?"

"It's true that I can't defeat you, but you can't defeat us either." Jin Ziming was a little frustrated.

"Then just wait and wait until my true form reaches its late peak and come back to conquer the cave. You can imagine the result then."

"Forget it, I don't have the same knowledge as you. I don't want this hole. If you want to rob it, you can rob it." This was what he said from his heart. He had no interest in the useless cave house. This time he came here just to take advantage of it.

"That's right, just recognize it."

"I have a condition."

"I'm not interested in listening. What qualifications do you have to make demands on me?"

"A Po-Zhenjun, don't take yourself too seriously. Wait until we go out and call the Peak True-Jun or the Half-Immortal. Then sit inside and wait for your true self to come and die."
