Chapter 316: Three hundred and sixteen, I don’t have it, you do!

"What did you just say about ’Pure Yang Immortal Body’? I have never heard of it when I was in the Nine... before."

Yun Xiao recalled the past and immediately asked, although he was about to say "when I was in the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud," he stopped himself just in time. Even toward this golden snake worm that shared his body, he remained vigilant.

"Even if you are a soul from the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud, it doesn’t necessarily mean you would have heard of the special physique known as the Pure Yang Immortal Body. Why the secrecy?"

As soon as Yun Xiao finished speaking, a trace of disdainful sneer crossed the golden snake worm’s serpent eyes, the words it uttered were to Yun Xiao like mountains collapsing and stones shattering the heavens.

You must know, the reincarnation of the Long Xiao Battle God was his greatest secret. He never even revealed it to his own mother and sister in this life.

But what Yun Xiao never expected was that the golden snake worm, which had entered his body back in the Shang Family Snake Nest, knew his biggest secret so deeply and even held contempt for it, which startled him beyond measure.

"Humph, however you put it, I am still a noble Five-Clawed Golden Dragon. If it hadn’t been for the knowledge that the soul of this body’s owner no longer exists, why would I stoop to such a lowly act as body seizing?"

Seeing Yun Xiao’s astonished face, the golden snake worm huffed again, as if to explain the intentions behind its original struggle with the Long Xiao Battle God’s soul for Yun Xiao’s body.

Back when Yun Xiao had just woken up, his body wasn’t under his control, all because the golden snake worm also wanted to occupy it, until the severe poisoning by the Fu Du.

Now Yun Xiao understood that the golden snake worm must have known at that time that the body had changed its soul master, so it felt no psychological burden.

Letting the soul of the Long Xiao Battle God seize the body was a form of control, and so was the golden snake worm’s seizure. In this matter, there was no first come, first served basis, in fact, neither party was right or wrong.

Hearing the golden snake worm’s words, Yun Xiao became guarded again. He truly didn’t know if this capricious little creature would attempt another soul-seizing act.

After witnessing the strength of the golden snake worm within the Meridian Treasure, Yun Xiao had no confidence that he could contend with it—if it really caused trouble, he would be quite at a loss.

It seemed as if sensing Yun Xiao’s inner turmoil, the serpent eyes of the golden snake worm flashed again with a teasing light, speaking, "If I really still wanted to seize the body, what good would your complete defense do?"

The golden snake worm first mocked, then said, "Nevermind, I think you are not bad, lad. You can control this body for now. As for the Ancient Dragon Taming Technique..."

At that point, the golden snake worm suddenly stopped talking, but the first half of the statement greatly relieved Yun Xiao. As long as this creature didn’t cause trouble, he could coexist peacefully with it.

And Yun Xiao, with his astute mind, believed that the Ancient Dragon Taming Technique that had transformed from the Blood Moon Jade could somehow restrain it to some degree; otherwise, why would such a proud creature bother talking so much nonsense with him?

Yun Xiao pondered memories, recalling that it was when his right hand, marked by the Blood Moon, touched the golden snake worm, that he absorbed it into his body, and at that time, the golden snake worm seemed to be struggling to escape.

These thoughts flashed through Yun Xiao’s mind, and after he took a breath of relief, he then said somewhat discontentedly, "Since you know I come from the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud, I should be much older than you, stop calling me ’lad’ all the time!"

"Hehe, I don’t know whether to say you are short-sighted or ignorant. Do you really think Nine-layered Dragon Cloud is the highest Plane of the Nine Dragons Continent? Ridiculous!"

These words from the golden snake worm were like bolts from the blue, rending Yun Xiao speechless for a while, for what was said was exactly what he believed.

As the Long Xiao Battle God from the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud, Yun Xiao undoubtedly considered himself to be extremely knowledgeable about the Continent, and he always believed the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud was the highest Plane.

There, Holy Rank powerhouses gathered, and with extremely high cultivation, their every motion possessed the power to move mountains and overturn seas. If such abilities could not stand at the peak of the Continent, was there an existence even more powerful than Holy Rank powerhouses?

Yet the peculiar behavior exhibited by the golden snake worm compelled Yun Xiao to believe deep down, or perhaps start to doubt if there was indeed a higher Plane above the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud.

"There are more things that I’m not yet at liberty to discuss, but the Pure Yang Immortal Body of that little girl should not appear here, this is truly odd!"

In response to Yun Xiao’s curiosity, the golden snake worm did not entertain him further, redirecting the topic back to Mo Qing’s Pure Yang Immortal Body, jolting Yun Xiao back to reality.

"What is the Pure Yang Immortal Body?"

Hearing this somewhat unfamiliar term again, Yun Xiao would no longer consider that just because he was the soul of the Long Xiao Battle God, he knew everything. He finally began to earnestly ask for wisdom.

"The Pure Yang Immortal Body, that is an extreme Fire Attribute Physique that could possibly exist somewhere in the distance... in a certain place, and even then, one might not appear in ten thousand years!"

The Golden Snake Worm seemed to want to say something, paused slightly after the word "distance," then implied something with a statement of fact.

"Generally speaking, even the Pure Yang Immortal Body, which is rare in ten thousand years, is only likely to appear in men, because women are heavily Yin, making them utterly incompatible with the pure Yang and Fire Attribute energy!"

The Golden Snake Worm spoke decisively, but the hint of confusion in its tone was unmistakable. This explanation clarified some things for Yun Xiao.

It seemed that this was indeed a supreme Fire Attribute Physique, but its emergence in a female had caused some conflicts, and Mo Qing’s Cultivation was too low to bear it.

"Then do you have any method to resolve the current state of Senior Sister Mo Qing?"

After thoughts in his mind turned, Yun Xiao returned to the present reality. No matter how formidable the Pure Yang Immortal Body was, Mo Qing’s current situation was not optimistic. If she lost her life, what would be the point of soaring to great heights?

However, just as Yun Xiao finished asking, his Inner Vision Eye saw the Golden Snake Worm slightly shake its head, causing him disappointment and frustration.

All this creature had said, whether about a Plane even higher than the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud or the special physique of the Pure Yang Immortal Body that appeared once in ten thousand years, ultimately amounted to empty words. It was no help at all for Mo Qing’s current situation.

"Hey, I indeed have no method for this special Pure Yang Immortal Body, but you do!"

Just as Yun Xiao was feeling let down, a flash of cunning suddenly went through the eyes of the Golden Snake Worm, and its words immediately made Yun Xiao overjoyed.

"What method do I have?"

To be honest, although Yun Xiao was delighted, he was also puzzled. Even as the Long Xiao Battle God, he hadn’t heard of the Pure Yang Immortal Body, let alone how to resolve it.

"You lucky brat, the ’Nine Dragon Blood Jade’... oh, you probably call it Blood Jade, how much do you understand about its miraculous aspects?"

It seemed the Golden Snake Worm knew a great deal when it mentioned an unfamiliar name. Yun Xiao’s heart stirred, and he quickly asked, "Do you know the origin of the Blood Jade?"

The Golden Snake Worm appeared young but was actually as cunning as they come. Seeing it glance at Yun Xiao, it said, "I know what you’re up to. I do know the details of the Blood Moon Jade, but that has nothing to do with your lineage, not even a Gold Coin’s worth, so don’t bother asking me!"

Just moments ago, Yun Xiao indeed wanted to steer the conversation to see whether this creature, which knew the secrets of the Blood Moon Jade, might have some clues regarding his father or the annihilation of the Shang Family. But it shut him down with a single remark.

However, Yun Xiao also knew the Golden Snake Worm likely came from a special Plane; it might know the original history of the Blood Moon Jade, but have no knowledge of whose hands it had passed through or what had happened. This matter, it seemed, he would have to investigate himself.

Setting these thoughts aside, Yun Xiao stretched out his right hand, looked at the crescent-shaped blood mark on it, and asked, "What do I need to do now?"

"With your current level of Cultivation, trying to drive out poison with Ice Cold Power would only add fuel to the fire, possibly causing the Pure Yang Immortal Body to erupt again. Why not try using the Ancestral Vein Fire?"

At this moment, even the tone of the Golden Snake Worm hesitated, which caused Yun Xiao’s heart to flutter. Was this little creature reliable?

Mo Qing had already suffered a Fire Poison outbreak, which was why she was unconscious. So, Yun Xiao thought of using Ice Attribute power to suppress the internal Fire Poison, aiming to wake her first.

But according to the Golden Snake Worm’s suggestion, he would have to fight poison with poison, which, if mishandled, could bring the Fire Poison within Mo Qing to an extreme, potentially burning her to ashes. If that happened, reviving her would be all the more difficult.

"Anyway, I’ve told you the method. I have no particular affection for this lass, saving her or not is all up to you!"

As if sensing Yun Xiao’s dilemma, the Golden Snake Worm spoke again then fell silent, leaving Yun Xiao indecisive and struggling to make a choice.

"Forget it, I’ll take the risk!"

After some time, as Yun Xiao noticed Mo Qing’s complexion growing redder, he finally gritted his teeth. Since there were no better solutions and if he did nothing Mo Qing might not survive, he decided to take a leap of faith and try.

Yun Xiao was not one to waver. Once he made up his mind, he extended his right hand, and as his thoughts moved, a wisp of blood-red flame emerged from the middle finger of his right hand that was pressed against Mo Qing’s wrist and quickly penetrated into her veins.
