Cao Yu looked at the prisoner's uniform he wore, sensing his weak physique and the emptiness within his Dantian. Extreme panic filled his eyes, and his expression gradually twisted.

Just then, 'Cao Yu's' voice suddenly rang out, "Elder Lin, is this body truly that of an Immortal Sect disciple? It feels so weak, not even comparable to Patriarch Feng's body!"

Hearing Li Xiaohu's complaint, Lin Xuankong smiled. He walked over, raised his hand, and poured a large amount of True Qi into Little Hu's body, immediately dispersing all the Tier Nine Perfection Corpse Scorpion Venom.

Li Xiaohu, whose cultivation had been suppressed to a lower Realm, felt his eyes widen immediately. "Huh, now this feels right. This body feels quite strong now, much stronger than Patriarch Feng's body!"

Lin Xuankong patted his head. "What do you mean, 'much stronger'? This is a Late Stage Ninth Layer body, a full four great Realms higher than Patriarch Feng! Even if you cultivated in Patriarch Feng's body for ten lifetimes, you wouldn't necessarily reach this Realm. Even I am currently three Realms below this body's level!"

Li Xiaohu scratched his head, grinning foolishly.

Nearby, Cao Yu began to tremble as he watched his own body being possessed, his expression continuously distorting. "You... you actually allowed someone to possess my body! Aren't you afraid of being discovered by the ten disciples of my Immortal Sect? When that happens, not only will you die, but both of you will!"

Lin Xuankong first stowed away Patriarch Feng's dormant body, then turned to Cao Yu. "Of course, I don't want to be discovered, and I don't want the possession of your body to be exposed. Therefore, you must now tell Little Hu everything about the Immortal Sect: the ten disciples, your master, and yourself. Be detailed; don't miss a single thing!"

Hearing this, Cao Yu couldn't help but tremble with rage. His face twitched as he glared at Lin Xuankong. "Are you dreaming? You think I would cooperate with you, help you deceive my junior brothers, and help you control my body more smoothly? That's absolutely, utterly impossible! I would rather die than agree!"

A cold glint flashed in Lin Xuankong's eyes. He grabbed Cao Yu by the shoulder and dragged him to the edge of the pool, pointing to a small fish swimming frantically in the water. "Do you see that little fish? That's the death row prisoner, newly reincarnated. You must have seen his Divine Soul gradually shrink and merge into that fish! If you cooperate with me, this feeble body of yours, though weak, can still keep you alive. However, if you show even the slightest hint of half-heartedness or resistance, things might get rather grim for you. Perhaps one day, when I'm in a particularly foul mood, I'll have you reincarnated as a dung beetle, destined to roll dung balls for eternity. Or maybe I'll turn you into a pig, forcing you to wallow in a cesspool day in and day out. Or, to be more direct, perhaps I'll reincarnate you as a maggot. I imagine that would be quite... stimulating! Or perhaps, I'll make you reincarnate into all sorts of animals and beasts, forcing you to endure endless cycles of pain unimaginable to the Human Race! And the most special part? Throughout this endless reincarnation, I can keep your Human Race Divine Soul intact, ensuring your existence is a torment worse than death!"

Hearing this, Cao Yu froze, intense fear filling his eyes.

Just then, Cao Yu suddenly saw Lin Xuankong raise his right hand. The complete Divine Soul of the death row prisoner was drawn out from the small fish and forced into a bug in the grass by the pool. Lin Xuankong then said, "For a creature that killed its own parents to become a carefree fish? That's letting it off far too easily!"

Seeing the bug writhing and hearing Lin Xuankong's words, Cao Yu couldn't stop himself from trembling all over. Even though he knew Lin Xuankong was killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, he couldn't help but be terrified... To be so easily manipulated, to be reincarnated into various animals and insects while still possessing a complete Divine Soul and human consciousness—the agony was unimaginable, far more terrifying than any torture described in the legends of hell!

"So, what do you say now?" Lin Xuankong said calmly. "Interested in having a little chat with this young brother of mine? Of course, if you cooperate well, it's not impossible that I might let you go. Perhaps, on the day I have this young brother of mine reincarnate into an Immortal's body, I'll allow you to reincarnate back into your own!"

Although Cao Yu knew this terrifying man was likely just drawing a pie in the sky for him, a sliver of hope uncontrollably rose in his heart.

After trembling for a long while, Cao Yu's spirit finally broke. He sighed heavily and lowered his head. "Fine, I'll talk. I'll tell you everything. Whatever you want to know, I'll tell you all of it!" He raised his head, a hint of desperation in his eyes. "I don't ask you to return my body to me after I've told you everything. I only beg that when the day comes for you to kill me, you don't reincarnate me as one of those animals or insects!"

Seeing Cao Yu's psychological defenses finally crumble, a smile touched Lin Xuankong's lips. "Rest assured. Although you're quite cunning and malicious, and you've schemed against me several times, you haven't actually managed to harm me! So, as long as you tell me everything you know, I won't make things difficult for you! Besides, and this is crucial, if you tell me everything, you'll become a traitor to the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect! And since you'll be a traitor to the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, you can naturally be my friend!"

Hearing this, Cao Yu slumped to the ground, all strength leaving him.

A traitor to the Immortal Sect... He had entered the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect as a child. Because of his unique Talent, possessing the Profound Bone Strange Vein, he was exceptionally suited for cultivating one of the sect's Secret Techniques. Therefore, Lord Spiritual Crane valued him immensely, spending countless resources to nurture him. These resources finally allowed him to reach the Late Stage of the Ninth Layer before he turned thirty, making him the fastest genius of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect's younger generation to reach this stage!

And now, the foremost genius of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect's younger generation was about to become a traitor to the Immortal Sect?

Thinking of this, he suddenly regretted not having been more patient, not waiting a few more years to break through to the Earth Immortal Realm before seeking the riches and splendors of the mortal world! How arrogant he had once been, believing that within the entire Great Xia Dynasty, absolutely no one would dare act against him and risk alerting the Divine Soul Token... Who could have ever imagined he would encounter such a bizarre and terrifying individual!

"Huh, Elder Lin, this fellow seems to have a piece of Celestial Demon Bone in his body!" Li Xiaohu suddenly exclaimed. "Judging by its size, it seems to be about as big as a finger, similar to the Tier Two Celestial Demon Bone you mentioned! And this guy's Ghost Frog Pouch has a lot of good stuff in it! There are treasures shimmering with a dense aura that I don't even recognize!"

Hearing this, Lin Xuankong's eyes lit up. A Tier Two Celestial Demon Bone! This Celestial Demon Bone must be the very thing that granted Cao Yu the Time Technique! And as an Immortal Sect True Inheritance, the treasures in Cao Yu's Ghost Frog Pouch must surely be plentiful!
