Chapter 2844: The First Spirit Ghost Contract

“What’s happening? Are they competing in inner strength?” Bone Fairy asked, watching Song Shuhang’s self-corpse and the spirit ghost fairy.

Next to her, Master Golden Hex gently petted the rabbit in his arms, lost in thought.

“This is… severing the three corpses?” Feng Yis claw twitched, her eyes lighting up as she spoke.

She had only read snippets about “severing the three corpses” in ancient heavenly court documents.

The phantom in front of her, with an aura of Ba Song, radiated a sense of “true self,” aligning perfectly with the description of the “self-corpse” in the severing process.

Black Skin Soft Feather asked curiously, “Is it some kind of clone?”

“Corpse dumb-dumb,” the Fairy of Creation replied solemnly.

Pavilion Lord Chu’s hair strand perked up as she examined the self-corpse. “Severing the three corpses isn’t cloning, but it’s somewhat similar. It’s an ancient celestial technique for tribulation immortals to break through the ninth level… but it doesn’t lead to the Eternal Life stage, as it lacks one’s own Dao. At best, it only reaches the level of a weak Eternal Life being.”

“But isn’t Shuhang still at the eighth tribulation realm? How did he manage to mess around with a tribulation immortal’s secret technique?” Bone Fairy wondered. “Did I fall asleep without realizing and slept for a month?”

“A month?” Feng Yi’s claw quivered, confused by Bone Fairy’s implication.

“He was challenging the Nether Sovereign at the fifth or sixth stage; practicing a tribulation immortal’s technique is no big deal for him,” Pavilion Lord Chu’s hair strand twirled in boredom.

Forget about practicing tribulation immortal techniques; even if Song Shuhang suddenly declared he had become the Heavenly Dao and offered to help her retrieve the reincarnations of the members of Jade Lake Pavilion, she wouldn’t be surprised.

As an old companion of Song Shuhang, she had learned to adapt.

Living means constantly adapting… if you can’t adapt to the market, you get eliminated!

Master Golden Hex, hearing this juicy gossip, accidentally pulled out a tuft of rabbit fur, causing the rabbit to struggle in pain.

“Is Senior Song about to break through to the ninth tribulation realm?” Black Skin Soft Feather asked, looking at the spirit ghost fairy and the self-corpse. “What are they doing now?”

“From what I understand, during the severing process, the three corpses need a host. It seems Ba Song is trying to synchronize his corpses with the spirit ghost fairy… but something seems off,” Feng Yi’s claw speculated.

“The spirit ghost fairy is missing something,” Pavilion Lord Chu’s hair strand commented. For some reason, when she looked at the spirit ghost fairy, she felt the fairy was incomplete.

Based on this observation, she deduced that Song Shuhang’s spirit ghost fairy had a significant connection to her. The bond seemed very intimate.

However, she had no memory of the spirit ghost fairy.

The spirit ghost fairy paused, realizing something. She kept her hand touching Song Shuhang’s corpse, while the other hand traced a circle above her head.

A spatial hole opened within the circle, and a delicate white hand emerged, grasping the spirit ghost fairy’s outstretched hand.

At the moment this hand appeared, Pavilion Lord Chu’s hair strand trembled slightly.

Faint memories of a Jade Lake Pavilion fairy, her disciple and the last survivor aside from her, surfaced.

However, the white hand only lingered briefly before pulling the spirit ghost fairy’s arm into the spatial hole.

As quickly as it appeared, the memory vanished.

“Is this the effect of the Heavenly Dao prison?” Pavilion Lord Chu quickly grasped the situation… Song Shuhang often entered and exited the “Heavenly Dao black room,” so she was familiar with its “root shielding” effect.

As she processed this, a faint “light of merit” appeared on Song Shuhang’s body, forming an eye of merit.

This was a protective measure left by the Virtuous Lamia to ward off evil influences in Song Shuhang’s body while she was summoned to the “Heavenly Dao prison.”

Just now, she sensed Dog Egg’s aura.

What is Dog Egg playing at?

In the void.

As the white hand connected with the spirit ghost fairy, the fairy’s presence felt complete.

Now whole, she theoretically met all conditions.

The spirit ghost fairy’s other hand exerted force, matching the self-corpse’s grip.

This time, there was a response.

A powerful wave of energy surged around them, their bodies synchronizing the “Forgotten Divine Art.”

Then…

Song Shuhang’s corpse, originally at the eighth level, broke through, reaching the formidable ninth level.

The Fish Jaw Master’s divine art at the seventh level could almost erase their existence from others’ memories, making them a vague recollection at best.

At the eighth tribulation realm, they became entirely invisible… even the “manifestation before men” effect was diluted, and the practitioner themselves was affected.

At the ninth level, it almost severed their ties to the Heavenly Dao prison.

Now, the corpse seemed to vanish from existence, as did the spirit ghost fairy.

Their synchronization rate hit maximum!

Yet, despite this, the spirit ghost fairy and the self-corpse couldn’t complete the severing process.

The spirit ghost fairy frowned, turning to gaze at Song Shuhang’s body, peering into his soul’s two contracts.

One belonged to her.

The other was a shattered “first spirit ghost” contract.

Could it be… they needed Song Shuhang’s first spirit ghost to complete the process?

“This is troublesome,” the spirit ghost fairy muttered.

Song Shuhang’s first spirit ghost had long disappeared, its fate unknown.

Where could she find it now?

Maybe… temporarily disable this first spirit ghost contract?

The spirit ghost fairy reached through Song Shuhang’s chest, gently touching the shattered contract.
