I Am Loaded with Passive Skills

“Tears streaming down her face…”

Ba Zun'an's eyes turned cold.

But when he turned his gaze, the person had already disappeared.

The scene of the Lei family entrusting their orphan flashed through his mind. Ba Zun'an didn't give up, and with a gesture, he pointed towards the place where the light of reception had dissipated.

“Go!”

Within the sea of swords, the Soul Extraction Staff trembled and shot out.

The rhythm of space-time rippled like waves. The Soul Extraction Staff pierced through the void in an instant and disappeared without a trace, actually chasing after “before”.

Space-time leap!

But after this sword leaped through space-time, it didn't arrive as expected to intercept the Sword Ancestor's light of reception.

Its destination was the place where the Ghost Buddha was.

“Aww!”

The Demonic Emperor Black Dragon was startled and writhed its dragon body.

On the surface, it was blocking in front of the Ghost Buddha to protect everything, but in reality, it curled up, trying to minimize the area of force it would receive.

The familiar aura of sword intent surged. That guy suddenly came over. How could one not be afraid?

“Where is he?”

Ba Zun'an shouted.

The Demonic Emperor Black Dragon and the Three Ancestors of the White Vein were all stunned. They quickly realized what he was asking. The Azure Stone of the Divine Prison spoke first:

“Just now, the light of reception passed by here, but it didn't harm us, so we didn't stop it…”

He ran away.

Ba Zun'an pondered for a moment.

Clearly, the “Sword Ancestor” had completely predicted his actions. The light of reception passed through the Ghost Buddha, and if he were to chase after it with a space-time leap, he would also have to pass through the Ghost Buddha.

The light of reception could pass through the Ghost Buddha harmlessly.

If his sword, coming from within, was too weak, it would be useless even if he caught up. If it was too strong, the Ghost Buddha would definitely shatter, and the passage would be destroyed.

It would be equivalent to helping the Three Ancestors of the Outer Realm open a gap for no reason, allowing them to enter faster. What a good plan!

“Forget it.”

Ba Zun'an's sword intent dissipated.

He couldn't fall for this trick and chase after them at this time. As for Lei Shuangxing, her life was up to fate…

No!

If he couldn't catch up, what about Xu Xiaoshou?

……

“Xiao Wanfeng!”

Almost simultaneously with Ba Zun'an, the black chicken in Yu Zhiwen's arms at the foot of Lingyu Mountain also made a move.

It called out symbolically.

The ancient sword cultivators of Lingyu Mountain all trembled.

No one could see clearly who made the move. The Xuan Cang Divine Sword in the sea of swords shot out.

Space-time leap, halfway through.

Seeing that Ba Zun'an had the same idea, the post-war auxiliary treatment members on the mountain, hiding behind everyone…

In reality, the real Jin Ren had already entered Jiang Na's belly.

The one staying behind here had been replaced by an incarnation of Xu Xiaoshou's will, created with bizarre tricks and spiritual energy, without anyone noticing.

The incarnation of will made a hand seal.

The Soul Extraction Staff was too much of a physical attack.

That thing didn't have things like “will” or “possession”, Ba Zun'an was still young.

Silently bidding farewell, following the light of reception together, Xu Xiaoshou didn't flinch at all.

“Going to the Sword Tower?”

Going in person, of course, wouldn't work.

Following with his will, this was actually a good thing.

With the extreme realm of the Way of Will, he could cut off a strand of his mind and go take a look before it dissipated on its own—it was both an adventure and an attempt.

If I don't go to hell, who will?

Who would have thought that he had really underestimated the “Sword Ancestor”!

After leaving the Ghost Buddha, the first place this light of reception went to wasn't the Sword Tower, but a familiar environment.

“The Cold Palace Emperor Realm?”

Xu Xiaoshou was suddenly horrified, there was a trap!

Whoosh.

The sound of water rang out.

Three rays of light led three ancient sword cultivator juniors, dunking them in a pool of water like slices of meat, then fished them out and continued on their next journey.

Xu Xiaoshou couldn't keep up.

He only felt his will burning hot, like rubbing pepper on a wound, he had been dunked into the pool of water.

Without much thought, he immediately understood what this place was.

“The Mind Cleansing Pool!”

Dao Qiong Cang once said that anyone who wanted to become a successor of the Holy Emperor must first pass the “Heart Questioning” test.

How to question the heart?

That was to go to the Mind Cleansing Pool and wash away any divergent thoughts.

The extreme realm of the Way of Will resisted the power of the Mind Cleansing Pool and wasn't immediately washed into a member of the Cold Palace Emperor Realm.

A mere wisp of divided spirit energy couldn't withstand such damage. Not only did it detach from Xiao Wanfeng's body, but it also burst and exploded in an instant.

“Failed.”

At this point, Xu Xiaoshou sighed.

Knowing that he could no longer keep up with the “Sword Ancestor's” pace and couldn't cross the Sword Jade to explore the risks of the Sword Tower in advance.

The Demon Ancestor made a move with swift and decisive action.

But just as he was about to actively disintegrate and dissipate this will, an unexpected change occurred.

Boom!

At the space node where the Cold Palace Cave Heaven was located, that is, the stone hall where the Demon Ancestor's stone statue was, a loud explosion erupted.

The magnificent power of the Holy Ancestor soared into the sky.

Accompanied by it was a long roar: “What kind of evildoer is secretly crossing into my clan's holy land?”

The Cold Palace Holy Emperor was not seen, but a holy image was condensed.

The power of the Holy Ancestor was overwhelmingly crushing down, transforming into an icy hand that grabbed and clamped down on the space around the Mind Cleansing Pool, including everything within: body, spirit, and will.

“Hand of Cold Shaping!”

Crack—

The will that was on the verge of disintegration was instantly frozen.

Xu Xiaoshou's hairs stood on end, and he had already realized that this was not a small trick, but a grand scheme.

One ring connected to another.

This was a chain scheme!

Starting with the three weak pawns of Gu, Xiao, and Lei, using the secrets of the Sword Tower as bait, it seemed insignificant, but in reality, it contained hidden killing intent.

Save them?

Don't save them?

Actually, either was fine.

With the overall situation at hand, no one would specifically care about the lives of three ants. If the Demon Ancestor really wanted them, Xu Xiaoshou would definitely choose to let go.

But this time, it was the Sword Ancestor, on the verge of disintegration, using the power of reception to pick up people…

This step was taken too “lightly”, to the point that it looked like it would be easy to retrieve the people.

If it was within his power, if he could just wade into the shallow water and retrieve one or two people, or at least find out some secrets.

Driven by such interests, it seemed like there were two choices, but in reality, there was only one.

Ba Zun'an and Xu Xiaoshou had the same reaction and chose to save them.

This rescue, Old Ba, who couldn't catch the fast train, was fine.

Xu Xiaoshou, who had benefited from the convenience of the extreme realm of will, immediately realized that he had been going smoothly for the past six months, and now he had really created trouble.

The Demon Ancestor's filth was no less than Dao Qiong Cang!

The holy image condensed by the Cold Palace Holy Emperor, that Hand of Cold Shaping, was clearly not coming to destroy his will, but to capture it alive!

What was the Demon Ancestor plotting…

Why didn't he capture him on the River of Time before, but now he wanted to capture him, why…

Was the Cold Palace Holy Emperor originally in closed-door cultivation, and this time he came out, or did it represent the Demon Ancestor's complete penetration of Moon Palace Han…

None of that was important!

Xu Xiaoshou only had one thought at the moment: he couldn't be caught!

Once caught, his abilities such as the extreme realm of will and the transcendence of the Way of Time would definitely be fully exposed.

Maybe the Demon Ancestor could also see what happened in the Ancient Carefree Building through this line, and even the world behind the three doors.

After all…

Dao Peipei was just Dao Peipei, but the Demon Ancestor was an Ancestral God.

Strictly speaking, the Demon Ancestor was at the same height as Time, Name, and Nuo.

“Come, come, come…”

The Hand of Cold Shaping grabbed towards the Mind Cleansing Pool.

Xu Xiaoshou's will was frozen and unable to disintegrate on its own.

Seeing that he was going to be captured alive instead of destroyed, he found a glimmer of hope in the dead end and catalyzed the power of guidance to the extreme.

“Come quickly, come quickly, there's no time left…”

No more detours!

Openly guiding!

Moon Fox, you're the only one left, save me quickly—

At the critical moment, just as the Hand of Cold Shaping grabbed the entire space of the Mind Cleansing Pool, a voice of surprise came from the direction of Listening Rain Pavilion:

“Father! You've come out of seclusion?”

Moon Palace Li was still sleepy-eyed and excited.

His white pajamas were still open, and he didn't even have time to tie his pants, he had already soared into the sky.

He didn't even know why he was so excited, why he had such great joy at his father's exit, and even this didn't look like a complete exit…

Just as he reached the high altitude, Moon Palace Li's face twitched violently, and his whole body trembled violently, as if resisting something.

He spat out a mouthful of blood and forcibly bit off the tip of his tongue, trying to regain himself through the pain.

To no avail.

The honest and upright Moon Fox.

As his pajama pants slipped off, he knelt on his knees in the void, raised his hands high, and shouted loudly, his voice spreading throughout the Cold Palace Emperor Realm:

“Receive! Divine! Descent! Technique!”

The maids of Listening Rain Pavilion all raised their heads, the elders of each hall pushed open their doors and came out, and the Cold Palace clansmen all widened their eyes and looked into the distance.

After Moon Palace Li shouted, nothing happened except for bleeding from his seven orifices.

Rumble!

The Hand of Cold Shaping picked up the entire Mind Cleansing Pool.

This huge cold pool, which was both a “holy land” and a “forbidden area”, was grasped in the void, and all who saw it were terrified.

The holy thought swept across.

But there was nothing inside.

Xu Xiaoshou's will had already escaped.

“You rebellious son, ruining my good deeds!”

A scolding voice rang out from the direction of the Cold Palace Cave Heaven, the holy image was dispelled, and the power of the Holy Ancestor dissipated.

The Cold Palace Holy Emperor seemed to know that the opportunity was fleeting, and even skipped the search process for his son.

“Cough, cough, cough!”

In the void, Moon Palace Li covered his head, which was almost cracking, and coughed up blood.

Regaining his senses, the first thing he did was get up and pull up his pants, and then grit his teeth and cursed in a painful voice:

“Xu! Xiao! Shou!”

Yes, he had been tricked.

Xu Xiaoshou's will directly appeared in his mind, but didn't give him time to react. As soon as it appeared, it automatically disintegrated.

As if he, Moon Palace Li, was just a transit station, Xu Xiaoshou suddenly came to his mind, took a piss, and then committed suicide.

Coming in a hurry, leaving in a hurry.

The fact that he could come and go freely, but he was powerless, made his heart infinitely mad, and Moon Palace Li was going crazy.

“What did I do to provoke you?”

“My body has already exploded once!”

……

The starry sky was silent.

Endless expanse.

A huge purple pupil, like a planet, stood fixed on the black, and at a certain moment, the eyeball seemed to blink, with a hint of playfulness in its eyes.

“Whoosh…”

Immediately, countless points of light scattered, and it seemed like he was hallucinating, the scene of the starry sky was gone, and illusions began to float.

This kind of bizarre scene was what Xu Xiaoshou saw when his will escaped into Moon Palace Li's body.

He “committed suicide” as soon as possible, disintegrating the wandering will and not giving anyone a chance to catch him.

Without a doubt, this time he succeeded.

After all, if the Cold Palace Holy Emperor wanted to attack him, the first to resist would be Moon Palace Li's external body.

In an instant, fate changed.

Xu Xiaoshou's will finally disintegrated.

But before “death”, he saw clearly what was behind the floating illusions in Moon Palace Li's body.

Countless black and purple skeleton hands were stacked upwards, forming a huge blood bone throne, and on the throne, the Three-Headed Six-Armed Calamity, who had been defeated by him once before, was leaning sideways, closing his eyes for a nap, in a very casual posture.

As if sensing someone peeking, He casually raised one eye and glanced over, and dazzling purple light shone from his eyes, submerging everything.

“Oh, escaped?”

……

“He's alive.”

In the Qianshi Emperor Realm, Xu Xiaoshou blinked violently.

Coming back to his senses, he was shocked to find that he was covered in cold sweat, and he actually had a lingering fear as if he had swam through the gates of hell.

Clearly, he just wanted to save Xiao Wanfeng…

Clearly, only a wisp of will was dispatched…

“You were impulsive.”

Dao Peipei's mouse finally succeeded in eating Xu Xiaoshou's elephant, and the task was completed.

He raised his head and said with a smile:

“It's a trap in the open, and it's a trap in the dark.”

“None of the Ancestral Gods who have survived to this day are good people.”

“When you are planning against Them, They are also planning how to target you, one wrong step…”

He showed the elephant of Xu Xiaoshou in his hand, threw it outside the game, and said firmly: “Everything is lost.”

Xu Xiaoshou opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound.

He narrowed his eyes, took out his notebook, and quickly wrote something on it.

“Hey, hey, hey…”

Dao Peipei was anxious, “It's none of my business, I'm just giving you a reminder, you wouldn't be so petty, would you?”

He actually didn't quite know what happened specifically.

It was just that Xu Xiaoshou's body suddenly shuddered, obviously not because he had removed his elephant.

He must have couldn't help but intervene in the game.

And he suffered a setback.

“It's none of your business.”

Xu Xiaoshou was too lazy to pay attention to the other side.

He quickly reviewed everything and frowned in thought.

Dao Peipei was right, the Demon Ancestor and Calamity were too insidious, and he almost fell for it.

Kindness doesn't make a good soldier, next time unless Ba Zun'an dies or the sky falls, he can't move his main body.

Not even just a wisp of will!

If a chess player enters the game, even if it's a side entry, what will be the result—have you forgotten the lessons learned from the past?

But this adventure, although he couldn't enter the Sword Tower, was not without gains.

“The Demon Ancestor's will in Moon Palace Han, the Demon Ancestor's spirit in the Sword Tower, and the Demon Ancestor's body at the crossroads can already be linked…”

“In this way, the Demon Ancestor is only one opportunity away from descending, and He is still vigorously promoting and creating this opportunity…”

“And Calamity!”

The Calamity seen in Moon Palace Li's body at the end was clearly not weak in power.

“What He left in Moon Fox's body is not what outsiders think, just a casual move.”

“That is definitely a power that is not inferior to Ai Cangsheng's power, and that one glance!”

He saw Him.

He also saw him.

Moon Palace Li couldn't stop him from shattering his will. It was clear that Tsui Yin had the time and ability, but He didn't stop it. Why?

Keeping him to fight the Demon Ancestor, so He could reap the benefits?

That's too superficial.

Xu Xiaoshou quickly thought of something. His consciousness escaped into the Apricot World, randomly activating a spiritual energy clone.

He went directly to the four Ancestral Trees and stared at the Dragon Apricot:

"Where is the thing I asked you to keep?"

The Dragon Apricot Spirit was still fast asleep. Hearing this, its dragon tail probed out, presenting a cloth doll.

Tsui Yin Puppet!

Sealed inside was most of Tsui Yin's consciousness and power.

Of course, "most" was what he thought before. Now it seems, it's at most only half of His power after revival, maybe even less.

The clone delivered the Tsui Yin Puppet back to the main body.

He would personally keep the Tsui Yin Puppet to prevent any accidents from happening.

When the Tsui Yin Puppet entered the inner world, the illusory Tsui Yin Divine Seat scene appeared before his eyes, and a bewitching voice followed:

"Let's make a deal, Xu Xiaoshou..."

Without even thinking, Xu Xiaoshou sealed off the Tsui Yin Puppet's leaking bewitching power, nipping the hallucinations and auditory illusions in the bud.

If Dao Qiong Cang came as a lobbyist, acting as the guarantor, and offering enough benefits in exchange,

He could consider it.

But Tsui Yin himself?

What credibility did Tsui Yin have?

Besides revenge, Tsui Yin probably only had revenge in mind!

After doing all this, Xu Xiaoshou paused slightly and sent out a thought, extremely serious:

"Ba Zun'an, we don't have time."
