I have been bound in a forbidden place for five hundred years. Why are you crying when I am a casual

"You...deserve...to die!!!"

While Gu Xiu was fumbling with the Immortal Crossing Sword, the Supreme Immortal Puppet, which he had dismembered and almost sliced ​​into pieces, began to regenerate amidst a series of furious roars.

His angry expression, which might have been somewhat authoritative under normal circumstances, now resembled a tattered rag doll. His authority was gone, and at most he was just a little scary, almost equivalent to being completely intimidating.

Seeing the other person's expression, Gu Xiu couldn't help but narrow his brows slightly.

Can the physical body and the soul coexist?

"Using the physical body as a vessel to hold the soul, yet achieving a high degree of harmony between the soul and the body—what kind of technique is this that can achieve such a level?"

"but……"

"Although I don't understand what this method is, I can roughly see its drawbacks."

"You will become more dependent on this body, and you will also be burdened by it. If nothing unexpected happens, your soul will have to endure extremely painful torment every now and then, right?"

Gu Xiu's voice was very soft, but it still reached the ears of the dilapidated Supreme Immortal Puppet in front of him, causing his originally angry expression to turn into one of shock.

Looking at Gu Xiu with the same disbelief as if he had seen a ghost, he never expected that this little cultivator who hadn't even broken through to the Void Refinement stage could see through his current situation at a glance and even point out his flaws.

"Are you curious?"

"My soul is more powerful than you imagine, and my knowledge is also quite extensive."

"If I'm not mistaken, choosing this method means that unless you die, you will never be able to escape the control of the Three Immortal Islands. Even your life and death will not be in your own hands."

"Is this price really worth it?"

Gu Xiu's question caused the Supreme Immortal Puppet's expression to change several times, but soon his face returned to firmness: "What's wrong with paying a price for the sake of immortality? What's not worth it?"

“But that excruciating torment of the soul must be incredibly painful. You might be able to endure it for a short time, but what if you extend it to ten, a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand years?” Gu Xiu asked, shaking his head.

This time.

Not only this Supreme Immortal Puppet, but even the other Supreme Immortal Puppets behind it couldn't help but change color.

After being improved by the Three Immortal Islands, only a few months have passed, but the suffering they have endured has made them sometimes want to self-destruct, yet they cannot die. Such suffering is not easy to bear.

Just by listening to Gu Xiu's suggestion to extend the timeframe, many of the Supreme Immortal Puppets couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.

That was an extreme form of torture.

"Grandmaster, you're confused! The Three Immortals Island is clearly using you. How can you accept such a price?" At this moment, someone behind Gu Xiu exclaimed.

He was a prodigy from a sacred land in the southern borderlands. At this moment, he looked at the Supreme Immortal Puppet that Gu Xiu had dismembered several times, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Upon seeing the disciple's attire, the Supreme Immortal Puppet's expression shifted several times, but it still spoke in a cold voice:

"This is my own choice, it has nothing to do with others, whether I can bear it or not is my own business. As for the Three Immortal Islands using me, so what? It is because they used me that I am still alive, while those self-righteous guys have all turned into a handful of dust."

This seems to make sense.

But the disciple felt a pang of bitterness upon hearing this: "Grandmaster, have you forgotten the poem you left behind in the sect back then?"

Upon hearing the poem, the Supreme Immortal Puppet's expression froze, only to see the disciple already reciting:

"Mayflies spread their wings and soar to the sky, while cicadas stand guard on withered branches in the cold."

“Grandmaster, you once laughed at the world like a mayfly, but now, aren’t you just like that cicada that you once mocked, guarding a withered branch?”

The room fell silent upon hearing this.

Almost all the Supreme Immortal Puppets froze for a moment, then immediately averted their gazes.

The grandmaster being questioned by his own junior disciples felt extremely uncomfortable. His face turned pale and then red, and the terrible wounds on his face that were just beginning to heal made him look even more ferocious and terrifying.

next moment.

He suddenly attacked, but not towards Gu Xiu. Instead, he bypassed Gu Xiu and went towards his own disciples.

"boom--!"

With a muffled thud, the disciple was sent flying backward. He looked at his grandmaster in disbelief, only to see the other's face turn icy as he said, "Unworthy descendant, how dare you, a junior, criticize my choices?"

He wants to kill the junior members of the sect who share the same roots as him!

The disciple was struck dumb, staring incredulously at his grandmaster. He clearly couldn't reconcile the hero who was constantly praised within the sect and regarded as a lifelong goal with the Supreme Immortal Puppet before him, who was merely trying to survive.

He was stunned, but the Supreme Immortal Puppet was not. Instead, it took a step forward and quickly caught up, raising its sinister palm again, intending to execute him on the spot.

"Immortality truly allows people to abandon everything."

At that moment, a sigh was heard, and then the Supreme Immortal Puppet suddenly felt his body stiffen.

Time seemed to slow down incredibly at that moment.

Just as his palm was about to strike the junior disciple's crown chakra, a flash of cold light appeared, and his arm immediately flew out, spurting blood.

The other party immediately flew into a rage, turning back to look at Gu Xiu: "You still dare to attack me?"

"You're not that legendary master from history, so why can't I make a move against you?" Gu Xiu replied calmly.

These words enraged the other party: "You are just a junior who has only gotten some opportunities by luck and managed to get ahead of some people. Do you really think you can hurt me?"

"So, you're actually proud of becoming this inhuman and ghostly state?" Before the other party could explode, Gu Xiu shook his head again: "Since I can see your problem, I can naturally think of a solution."

"Instead of acting impulsively and becoming enraged."

"Why don't you think about it..."

"Can your arm be reattached like it was before?"

Upon hearing this, the Supreme Immortal Puppet, who was originally furious, suddenly froze, his gaze falling on the arm that had fallen to the side, his pupils widening abruptly.

This arm...

They didn't come back!

It did not recover as quickly as before when it returned to its physical body!

even.

He couldn't even sense the existence of that arm, as if it had never belonged to him in the first place.

And along with his arm, his soul also broke off!

This scene caused even the previously unrestrained Supreme Immortal Puppet to show a look of horror, staring at Gu Xiu with a mixture of shock and anger:

"you……"

"what have you done?"

"Why...did my self-healing ability disappear?"
