After pulling out the nail, the white-haired boy still held Gu Xu's wrist without letting go at all.
Only the roar of thunder was heard.
In the dark sky of the Netherworld, four large golden characters suddenly appeared out of thin air.
Two of the characters are "Gu Xu" and two are "Zi Wei".
As the white-haired boy held Gu Xu's hand tighter and tighter, the two names slowly overlapped each other, and they seemed to become squirming earthworms, entangled with each other until they were indistinguishable from each other.
"You should know that names are the direction of cause and effect," the white-haired boy looked up at the constantly changing characters in the sky and said calmly, "From today on, Gu Xu is Zi Wei, and Zi Wei is Gu Xu. Their names, together with Their identities will be completely merged into one.”
Gu Xu did not respond.
He stood there steadily, his eyes a little dull, as if he had not recovered from the shock.
When the words in the sky stopped changing and solidified into a complex rune, the white-haired boy finally let go of Gu Xu's hand.
The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and thousands of stars burst out from the palm of his hand, launching a merciless attack on Gu Xu's soul.
A barrier made of runes immediately appeared around Gu Xu's soul.
The white-haired boy knew that this was a "Calm Down Talisman", which was specially used to defend the soul from attacks.
In his opinion, Gu Xu, a kid, seemed to be suffering from delusions of being persecuted. He would carve various talismans into his sea of consciousness all day long, such as the "Calming Talisman" to resist attacks, and the "Calling Talisman" to relieve negative effects. "Decontamination Talisman", "Soul Purification Talisman" to defend against poison, etc.
But a mere talisman cannot stop the white-haired boy's fierce attack.
The moment it was touched by the starlight, the rune barrier collapsed.
Then a second barrier appears...
Collapse again...
The third barrier appears...
Collapse again...
…
In the next period of time, the white-haired boy shattered a hundred "Calming Talismans" barriers.
"You kid are really afraid of death!"
He looked at the stunned Gu Xu in front of him and sighed from the bottom of his heart.
With the white-haired boy's thoughts, blue flames rose from Gu Xu's body, like burning stars, beautiful, hot and dangerous.
As the flames burned, Gu Xu's body became more transparent and blurry, while the white-haired boy's body became clearer and more solid.
"It's just one step away from success."
"I have successfully captured his cause and effect and owned his name. I only need to erase his soul and occupy his body. Then I can avoid the eyes of Supreme Haotian and live in this world with a new identity. World."
The white-haired boy thought silently, his smile becoming more and more cheerful.
His face, which was very similar to Gu Xu, was also changing rapidly, becoming more angular and mature, and a beard grew on his chin.
From an eighteen-year-old boy, he became a thirty-year-old young man.
If any Daqi citizen saw his appearance at this time, they would be surprised to find that he looks exactly like the statue of Emperor Ziwei placed in the Temple of Heaven!
As he said, not everything he said to Gu Xu before was true.
He was never the other self hidden deep in Gu Xu's heart, nor was he the obsession left by Gu Xu's previous life.
He is the only remaining soul of Emperor Ziwei.
He led Gu Xu to awaken his power and search for the astrolabe fragments, not because he wanted Gu Xu to inherit his power and complete his career.
He was just looking for an opportunity to be resurrected.
After years of dormancy, now he is finally succeeding.
When Gu Xu's figure was about to completely disappear in the blue flames, the white-haired boy - to be precise, he should be called "Emperor Ziwei" now, sighed softly and said: "I borrowed your The resurrection of the body and cause and effect can be regarded as our destiny. I will avenge your revenge for you, fulfill your wish for you, and take care of the people around you - "
However, at this moment, before Emperor Ziwei could finish speaking, he felt a heartbreaking pain in his soul.
Such pain may not pose a fatal threat to him, but it is enough to interrupt the spell he is casting.
The blue flame went out.
Gu Xu's figure also disappeared.
Emperor Ziwei frowned slightly and turned around under the guidance of his intuition.
The next moment, another Gu Xu appeared out of thin air beside him, manipulating the blazing flames and launched a fierce attack on him.
Emperor Ziwei raised his hand gently, and the bright starlight turned into a strong shield, blocking Gu Xu's flames.
Orange red and silver white collide together to form a dreamlike picture.
"It seems that you have been planning to deal with me for a long time," Emperor Ziwei looked at Gu Xu standing in the firelight, and said in a calm tone, "I have helped you so many times in the past, and I have unreservedly surrendered the authority of the avenue. Let me teach you that you are really a white-eyed wolf who repays kindness with revenge."
Gu Xu smiled lightly: "A consciousness with unknown details and the ability to read my thoughts appeared in my mind out of thin air. How dare I take it lightly?"
Starlight and fire continue to eat away at each other.
Although Emperor Ziwei was once a powerful monk who was extremely close to the Ninth Realm, he now only has a residual soul left. In terms of soul power, he does not have much advantage over Gu Xu.
It's just that his understanding of "Tao" is much better than Gu Xu's, and he can often achieve the effect of lifting a thousand pounds with his skills.
So he quickly gained the upper hand in this mental confrontation.
Gu Xu's eyes became solemn.
Although he spoke in a relaxed tone, in fact, the way he escaped from the fate of being taken away from his body just now was a narrow escape from death.
Fifth level monks have the ability to leave the body.
As early as when he was in the grassland, he had used the obsession of "resurrecting Lu Shiyao" and left part of his soul in Jinghong Bi on the grounds of "studying the causal imprint that Lu Shiyao left in Jinghong Bi". among.
Therefore, when Emperor Ziwei tried to use his "ruling" authority to mentally control him, this part of his soul was not affected.
When Emperor Ziwei thought he had a chance to win, Gu Xu used "Firefly Flame" to break the effect of "ruling" authority, and at the same time used "Solar Eclipse" to launch a mental attack on Emperor Ziwei.
The former "Firefly Flame" may not be enough to escape the confinement of "Domination".
But when Gu Xu kicked open the door of Fengdu and understood the true meaning of "rebellion", the power and status of the "Seven Burning Heaven Styles" in his hands were also greatly improved, almost reaching the point of breaking all laws in the world. .
Tao methods such as "Domination" that aim at control and enslavement are especially restrained by the "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven".
