Chapter 315 Immortal Soul Art
Although Tang Qing was now a hands-off leader, her authority was still there. With her approval, the matter of Empress Providence joining the Devil Sect could be considered settled.
After all the higher-ups left, only Zhao Mu and the two empresses remained in the conference hall.
Zhao Mu was about to take Tang Qing's hand, but she discreetly avoided him.
"Go accompany your new sister. Why waste your time on me?"
As expected, he was still jealous.
At a time like this, there was only one way to break through.
That was to shamelessly coax her.
Zhao Mu didn't give Tang Qing a chance to explain. He forcefully broke through Tang Qing's defenses and pulled her tightly into his arms. No matter how Tang Qing struggled, he wouldn't let go.
Then, he used Zhao Mu's peak-level verbal skills to subdue Tang Qing once again.
When Tang Qing was completely limp in his arms, Zhao Mu explained, "Things aren't quite what you think. Allow me to explain …"
Zhao Mu roughly described his trip to the Phaseless Nation. Of course, he left out a few key clues.
But Tang Qing still understood.
She looked up at Zhao Mu in disbelief, then at Empress Providence, who was quietly sitting next to him, drinking tea.
For a moment, she couldn't wrap her head around it.
Her idol, one of the Five Supremes of the human race, Empress Providence of the Phaseless Nation, had actually signed an unequal soul contract with her own husband and become his servant?
Although this sounded a bit shocking, Empress Providence was here. Since she didn't say anything, it meant that everything Zhao Mu said was true.
Tang Qing suddenly sighed softly.
She looked at Empress Providence.
"Even a supreme figure like you can't escape the shackles of life. Immortality, immortality. If you're willing to give up on being a human for the sake of immortality, what's the point of such immortality?" Tang Qing's tone grew heavier and heavier. She even sounded like she expected better from Empress Providence.
She saw Empress Providence as her idol, but her idol had collapsed. How could she not be angry?
Anger had gotten to her head. She didn't even care about Empress Providence's status as a diviner.
Zhao Mu saw this and couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Needless to say, at this moment, it really felt like an elder sister teaching her younger sister a lesson.
"I'm doing this for the sake of the citizens of the Formless Kingdom. I can't die, or else the kingdom will fall into chaos!" Empress Arcanum's expression turned serious, and she actually took the initiative to explain.
"Excuses, excuses!"
Tang Qing said angrily, "Don't use your country and the world to hide your selfishness. You're just afraid of death. You just can't bear to give up this monstrous power. If you can't even admit this, then you've wasted five thousand years of cultivation!"
Lady Providence fell silent.
Selfishness … Perhaps.
She always felt that she wasn't afraid of death, but in the end, there were too many things that she couldn't let go of.
There was a great terror between life and death.
The longer one lived, the deeper one would feel it.
Otherwise, why would there be so many cultivators who were nearing the end of their lifespans who would do anything to prolong their lives?
"Elder Sister is right. Younger Sister knows her mistake."
Suddenly, Lady Providence raised her head and formally apologized to Tang Qing.
Zhao Mu was very surprised when she heard him say that he knew he was wrong. It also made Tang Qing sober up instantly.
What was he doing just now?
Where did she get the courage to teach a diviner a lesson?!
Zhao Mu suddenly revealed a gratified smile. It seemed that his continued presence here was unnecessary.
These two empresses should be able to get along very well.
Then he'd give them both time and space.
After leaving quietly, Zhao Mu didn't stay idle. Instead, he went straight to the academy to gather the disciples for an alchemy class.
He wanted to continue refining pills and see if there was a way to extract the pure medicinal power of the Soul-cleansing Flower from the herb's corpse.
Half a month passed in a flash.
It was not long before he had to head to Inverted Hanging Mountain. Before he left, Zhao Mu finally found a way to extract the medicinal power of the Soul-cleansing Flower.
After several attempts, Zhao Mu finally extracted the medicinal power of the Soul-cleansing Flower completely.
He then refined it into a Soul-cleansing Pill and consumed it.
The Soul-cleansing Pill's medicinal effect was amazing. After consuming it for two days, Zhao Mu could clearly feel the changes in his soul.
Although there were no changes in his physical body, his mental state seemed to have been sublimated. There was a feeling of rejuvenation and returning to his original state.
"My soul now should be considered a pure and untainted innate soul state."
Zhao Mu was quite satisfied. Then, he summoned the little bastard and enlightened it.
Zhao Mu imparted the complete Soul-cleansing Hundred Refinements to the little bastard just like that.
The little bastard was confused and did not know what to do. I'm just an ignorant spirit beast. Master, why did you give me such a powerful cultivation technique?
"Ding! You imparted the Soul-cleansing Hundred Refinements and triggered a 10,000-fold refund. You are rewarded with the Undying Divine Soul Technique."
Zhao Mu was overjoyed.
It actually triggered a 10,000-fold refund. His luck was not bad.
Then, the Undying Divine Soul Technique began to be imparted to his mind.
The Undying Divine Soul Technique was a very domineering soul-cleansing technique. However, it was different from the cruel and evil aura of the Soul-cleansing Hundred Refinements. Although the Undying Divine Soul Technique was also cruel, the cruel target was himself.
This cultivation technique … felt very unfriendly to cultivators.
After cultivating the Undying Divine Soul Technique to the large success stage, one's soul would be indestructible and immortal.
Once this cultivation technique was cultivated, Zhao Mu would definitely have the qualifications to conquer the world. Even in the Greater Thousand World, he would have the ability to run amok.
However, the cultivation process … was really inhumane.
The prerequisite for cultivating the Undying Divine Soul was to experience the destruction of one's soul time and time again!
Simply put, it was to scatter one's soul and then condense it again. During this process, one's soul would constantly become stronger.
After experiencing the destruction of one's soul 81 times, the Undying Divine Soul Technique could be considered cultivated.
But that would mean the destruction of one's soul.
Even if it was a powerful cultivator, once their soul was destroyed, it was equivalent to completely dying. They couldn't even reincarnate.
Using such an extreme method to cultivate one's soul was tantamount to repeatedly jumping around the gates of hell. It was purely courting death.
Most importantly, it wasn't as if he could succeed just by courting death once.
He had to court death a total of eighty-one times before he could truly cultivate the Indestructible Divine Soul.
To be honest, Zhao Mu was a little hesitant.
After mastering this technique, it was indeed like breaking an old bull, but the risk was also ridiculously high.
"Anyway, let's give it a try first."
Zhao Mu sat down cross-legged, holding his breath and concentrating. He circulated his soul power according to the cultivation method, and soon, Zhao Mu felt a piercing pain in his soul.
It was as if someone was using a small knife to cut off his soul bit by bit!
In the beginning, Zhao Mu relied on her strong willpower to persevere.
However, as the cultivation method continued to circulate, the speed of cultivation became faster and faster. The pain was like a tide, surging wave after wave. Moreover, the waves were getting higher and higher until it evolved into a tsunami, completely drowning Zhao Mu …
After cultivating for only 15 minutes, Zhao Mu decisively stopped.
He almost fainted.
The pain of the soul was different from the pain of the physical body. Although there were no injuries on the body, the pain was completely irresistible. It was not something that ordinary people could endure.
After half a day, Zhao Mu finally regained his senses.
He smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"This Undying Divine Soul Technique isn't suitable for me to cultivate for the time being. I can't take it anymore at the beginning. If I really walk to the point where my soul is destroyed, I'm afraid I won't be able to endure it the first time. It's better to stop here."
