Chapter 381: Silent Contest and Temptation!

The Soul Eater powerhouse, a space full of mist.

A monstrous soul power spread from within it, enveloping all around, and if a monk entered here, he would definitely be affected by that soul power, and his heart would go crazy.

In the midst of this boundless space, there is a towering black altar, and from a distance, the entire altar looks like a huge black statue, standing above the endless mist.

Around this altar, ancient stone pillars are carved with various mysterious totems and runes, and although they have passed through the baptism of time, you can still feel the deep power they exude.

In the center of the altar, strange black chains crisscross all sides.

These pitch-black chains were engraved with various intricate runes, and one by one the black chains penetrated the surrounding space, and then gathered to the central point, binding a person to death.

The person who was tied up was a young man, his face was grim, his eyes were closed, this person was Jiang Chen who was taken away by the silver armor creature.

In front of this young man, the void distorted, and then a middle-aged man appeared, this person was wearing a gray robe, his figure was tall, he looked handsome, and he obviously looked extremely masculine, but the whole person exuded a cold aura, and a lingering aura of decay permeated his body.

It seems that the soul hidden in the body is not the soul of the original body, but someone else.

The moment the middle-aged man appeared, the white mist around him churned, as if countless demons were roaring in all directions, rolling up the wind and clouds, roaring the heavens and the earth.

He slowly raised his head and looked at the sleeping young man with a strange gaze, his eyes showing satisfaction.

"This body container is just perfect, I can't wait." The middle-aged man licked his lips, and there was a strong fiery look in his eyes.

"It's just that the cultivation level is too low, but it doesn't matter." He looked around at Jiang Chen and muttered to himself.

"Next, erase the soul of the container first." The middle-aged man spoke slowly, and as soon as he finished speaking, the black chains around him immediately emitted a crystal black light.

Faintly visible, in every black light, there were a large number of black and slender insects, they quickly crawled towards the chain, and continued to condense towards Jiang Chen's eyes, ears, nostrils, and mouth.

Jiang Chen's body was motionless in the black altar, but an extremely painful face appeared.

His body was already covered with dense black bugs.

At this moment, Jiang Chen had fallen into a deep sleep, and his mind, consciousness, and soul were completely silent.

It's just that no one can guess that Jiang Chen's consciousness and divine thoughts are hidden in the attribute panel in his body, looking at all this indifferently.

The attribute panel is the biggest secret of Jiang Chen's body, even if this middle-aged man's cultivation is extraordinary, he can't detect it.

Jiang Chen had a strange feeling at the moment, as if he was a different individual from his own body, divided into two parts.

He could clearly perceive that those black bugs were constantly gnawing at his soul, not letting go of a single wisp.

Gradually, Jiang Chen's soul gradually shattered, until it was gnawed away, leaving only a dense golden ball of light.

Slowly, as time passed, years passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, the middle-aged man came again, his soul power spread out, and he carefully inspected Jiang Chen's body until he couldn't detect a trace of soul power, and only a completely empty shell was left before he smiled.

Jiang Chen's soul will was pinned on the attribute panel, and his expression became extremely gloomy as he watched his ninety percent of his souls being ruthlessly devoured.

"Are you going to occupy my body next......" Jiang Chen's eyes were cold, faintly revealing a touch of madness, but he did not act rashly and continued to wait and see.

If a wisp of soul consciousness returns to the physical body now, it will definitely be discovered by the men of the Soul Eater Clan, and not only will he not be able to regain his physical body at that time, but he will also die completely, and there will be no chance of resurrection.

He's waiting for an opportunity, a chance to completely turn himself around, and all he has to do now is be patient!

"The perfect foundation of the physical body, even if there is no soul, the divinity of the physical body does not dissipate in the slightest, this is my creation, once there is this physical body, the body and soul merge, the chances of enlightenment will be greatly increased!" The middle-aged man's eyes showed obsession and fiery, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became.

Only such a container is qualified to become his physical body, what he values is the potential of this physical body, it doesn't matter if the cultivation is low, he has his own way to improve it!

"Cultivating his physical body to such an extent must have something extraordinary, maybe his soul has not completely dissipated......" The man's eyes revealed a hint of deep meaning, and he secretly said in his heart.

The stakes are so high that he can't afford to make mistakes, and he doesn't dare to gamble to make sure that nothing goes wrong.

If he fails, everything he does will fall short, even if there is a 1 in 100 million probability, he doesn't dare to gamble, the longer he lives, the more afraid of death!

Time passed gradually, and in the blink of an eye, another ten years had passed, and during this time, middle-aged men would come to check every once in a while, and each time they would personally exude a strong divine sense and carefully sweep it on Jiang Chen's body before slowly leaving.

In the past ten years, Jiang Chen's physical body has been coiled on the altar, and the divinity of his physical body is still amazing, but he is motionless, without the slightest soul fluctuation, as if he is a living dead.

During this period, Jiang Chen's soul will was hidden in the attribute panel, he did not act rashly, even his own soul began to gradually dissipate because of the lack of physical body, and the soul was separated from the physical body, which was equivalent to a fish leaving the water and would soon die.

The body and soul are complementary and indispensable, and neither can be without the other.

But Jiang Chen faintly felt that the other party's temptation was not over, and now the competition between the two sides was patience, and Jiang Chen would never show up until it was absolutely necessary.

He also found that the rotten aura on the middle-aged man's body was even stronger, and there was a dead aura all over his body, if the other party didn't change the body container, it wouldn't last long.

On this day, the middle-aged man came to Jiang Chen again, his state was very strange at the moment, his body was trembling, his eyes were flowing with tears, he looked at Jiang Chen who was bound by the black chain, and a sad color appeared in his eyes.

"My people, don't be afraid, I'll take you home." The middle-aged man was full of tears, looking at Jiang Chen, revealing a soft color.

"Three thousand years! I endured it for three thousand years, and finally took advantage of the aging of the soul eater clan to completely destroy it, I hate it so much, it all came too late!! ”

"Child, you have suffered, have you heard my call? I'm here to take you home! The middle-aged man moved softly and gently pulled out the iron chain inserted into Jiang Chen's body.

"Wake up, kid, three thousand years ago, I could have evaded the Soul Eater's detection, and I'm sure you can too!" There was a look of hope in the man's eyes.

"Child, I am your ancestor, come out quickly, I have a secret technique that can restore your soul to its original state, if you delay time, you will really be powerless!" The man's eyes showed an anxious look and a look of grief, as if he didn't want to see Jiang Chen die like this.

In this way, the man hugged Jiang Chen's body and wept bitterly, full of sorrow.

And Jiang Chen's last trace of soul will faintly had traces of dissipation, but at this moment he was still unmoved, coldly paying attention to everything around him.

It wasn't until three days and three nights later that the middle-aged man still didn't notice a trace of weirdness, he slowly stood up, and returned to his previous indifferent appearance again.

Obviously, his previous words and gestures were all to lure out a trace of Jiang Chen's soul will, and all of this was his temptation!

In fact, this Soul Eater is suspicious by nature, and even if it can't detect the slightest weirdness, it doesn't easily choose to believe it, but tries one after another.

After waiting for a long time, he still didn't detect the slightest abnormality, so he was a little relieved.

But at this moment, the middle-aged man's eyes opened suddenly, his body quickly retreated, staring at Jiang Chen's body, revealing an extremely determined look.

"Found it, it turns out that there is still a trace of soul will remaining, die!!" The middle-aged man shouted angrily, and then raised his hand and pointed at Jiang Chen.

A black light with devastating fluctuations went straight towards Jiang Chen, looking at that appearance, it was everything that wanted to completely kill Jiang Chen.

At this moment, Jiang Chen had only one choice, that is, the only remaining trace of soul will was to merge into his physical body, and dodge this deadly move as quickly as possible.

If it was someone else, he would definitely be frightened by this man's sudden words and actions, and his soul instinctively reacted, but Jiang Chen's trace of soul will was not moved at all.

He had always been convinced that since the other party wanted his body as a new container, it was impossible to destroy it.

It's an endurance race!

At this moment, the black light approached three inches from Jiang Chen's eyebrows, and a strong life and death crisis suddenly appeared in Jiang Chen's soul will, at this moment, his instinct wanted to return to his body, but he was suppressed by Jiang Chen himself, and he still didn't move.

He didn't believe that the other party could perceive his attribute panel, this was his biggest secret!

In an instant, the black light immediately penetrated Jiang Chen's eyebrows, but it didn't hurt him in the slightest!

All this is still a temptation of a middle-aged man!

"Hahahaha, there's no problem with this body at all!" It was only at this moment that the middle-aged man completely let down his guard and laughed, but he smiled and laughed, his seven orifices could not control the flow of dark red blood, obviously his current body container was about to reach its limit, and he couldn't wait.

"This physical body can be called perfect, the only deficiency is that the cultivation is too low, and it needs to be strengthened and cultivated to fit my soul perfectly......"

The middle-aged man only began to carefully spy on everything Jiang Chen had at this time, and the more he explored, the more vigorous the essence in his eyes became.

"It's amazing, such a low cultivation can condense two origins, and in addition, he also perceives darkness and killing, huh? There is actually a forbidden origin that is about to condense out!! ”

"This body is several times better than I expected......" The middle-aged man's eyes showed a strong look of joy.

"This container can be my last physical body, preaching with me, above all beings!" The man looked at Jiang Chen's body, and his eyes showed a look of obsession and yearning.

Then, with a wave of his hand, a cloud of black light that was extremely rich and extremely enveloped Jiang Chen's body in an instant, if you looked closely, you could clearly see that where was this black light, but countless insects that had inhaled silk threads.

These insects were dense and countless, and began to burrow into Jiang Chen's skin, meridians, and blood vessels.

With the passage of time, every part of Jiang Chen's body was densely packed with black insects, and even his pupils were full of dense black insects.

Soon, year after year passed, and since the last time the middle-aged man left, he had not appeared again, and in the blink of an eye, twenty years had passed again.

Jiang Chen's trace of soul will was about to dissipate, but he still endured his instinct and continued to wait patiently, so as not to respond to all changes, he was sure that the other party was still tempting, this is a game between the two sides, once whoever can't hold it first will lose the whole game!

At the same time, ten years have passed again, Jiang Chen's wisp of soul will has been weakened to the extreme, he faintly feels that he has reached the limit, if the other party is still tempting, even if he risks being discovered, he has to return to his physical body.

"I can hold on for another year at most...... Jiang Chen's soul will revealed a strong color of madness.

At this moment, in every cell of his body, there are eggs laid by black bugs, and each egg emits a glowing black light, and even smaller bugs faintly appear.

Jiang Chen's body has completely become a nest of insects, providing them with a lot of nutrients.

At the same time, after thirty years of devouring, Jiang Chen's flesh divine insects had already begun to wither, his skin had become as rough as tree bark, and the flesh and blood on his body had dried up, like several corpses, as if they were about to dissipate at any time.

In this situation, even Jiang Chen began to doubt his judgment, if he didn't do something, his physical body would be abolished, and he was not far from death, this kind of torture was more terrible than death!

Jiang Chen was a little shaken, he hesitated, he began to doubt at this moment, the other party was really continuing to try, or had he completely forgotten about himself?

"Damn, Lao Tzu fights, and if he dies, he will die!!" But just when Jiang Chen wanted to give up, he was ruthless.

If returning to the body now is also death, it is better to hold on until the last moment!

Jiang Chen decisively abandoned all thoughts, and continued to wait with a monstrous madness.

A month, two months, until ten months passed, his physical body no longer had a trace of divinity, all of it was devoured by insects, as if the wind blew, the whole body would turn into ashes and disappear, but Jiang Chen was still waiting!

In the past thirty years, not only Jiang Chen is waiting, but middle-aged men are also waiting!

That is, in the eleventh month, when Jiang Chen felt that even if the other party did not appear again, he would completely dissipate, and the middle-aged man appeared again.

His eyes showed hesitation, he didn't believe that the other party could hide it so well, even if he was about to die, he could still restrain his instincts.

What's more, he himself can't wait.

"When the time comes, I will accept this body......"
