Cultivating immortals is a hard job

"Do you have any other questions?"

Mo Xun thought about it and then shook his head. The old man said a lot, and he could only force himself to remember these things temporarily and think about them later.

At the moment, how to overcome this difficulty is the most important thing.

"Thank you for your guidance, I have benefited a lot!"

The old man smiled and said, "In this case, you should do it quickly!"

In his opinion, the old man urged him to cast a spell again and again, there are only two possibilities.

Either, as he said, there is nothing he can do to the mummy, or this person is afraid!

In theory, it is just a ray of spirit that has grown spiritual wisdom. Has the old man never thought of a way to kill it for so many years, and he has to wait for him to solve it?

He doesn't believe that an old monster who can survive for tens of thousands of years, even if he becomes a half-dead human puppet, has never left a trace of means.

Then obviously, the answer can only be the latter.

Thinking of this, Mo Xun secretly glanced at the mummy in the dimness.

What exactly is the reason that makes the old man afraid of his own body?

"Senior, can you wait a little while until I sort out these questions before casting the spell?"

The old man pondered for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Young friend, just hurry up!"

Then, Mo Xun pretended to take out a jade slip and put it on his forehead.

The passage fell into silence again.

Mo Xun's mind returned to the previous question again.

He felt that his thinking seemed to have fallen into some kind of misunderstanding. If he didn't change, he would definitely not be able to get out of it.

But how to change?

He started from the beginning again, and carefully went over what he had seen and heard since entering here, as well as the conversation with the old man.

Suddenly, a light flashed in his mind, as if he had found a key, a key to solve the answer.

Since the premise of all his determinations was that the other party's words were false, why not try to deny them all, treat everything the old man said as a lie, and then think from the opposite side?

Right, right, right!

He nodded secretly, and the first thing he thought of was the story the old man told.

Perhaps it was not that Jun Tianxing was interested in the Qianji Pavilion furnace, but that the old man was captured here because he flirted with the female disciple of Fuling Sect and was killed by others at the mountain gate...

Thinking of this, Mo Xun shook his head gently. Even if the truth was true, it could not answer his current doubts.

Then, he thought of the reason why the old man was imprisoned here.

If you think about it the other way around, it may not be imprisonment, but this person trespassed here and was trapped here.

This can explain why there is a storage bag on the body.

But why would he be afraid of his own body?

Moreover, a Yuanying cultivator, no matter how incompetent he is, would not be trapped in a secret room!

Then, would this person, like him, enter this place after the war and take advantage of the opening of the ancient ruins?

It seems unlikely, after all, the Moon Star Order to enter this place is now in his hands.

Mo Xun was quite upset and felt that his head was about to explode!

After calming down, he then thought of the old man's separation of his soul, and a trace of his soul remained in his body...

What if this matter was also denied?

He suddenly felt his eyes brighten. If he thought about it the other way around, what if the mummy in front of him was not the old man himself?

In this way, it seems that many problems can be explained!

The old man was imprisoned here, and the corpse was very likely the guard guarding this place!

This explains why the mummy still has a storage bag, and why the old man is so afraid of the mummy!

But then again, the corpse might have been a deterrent when it was alive, but now that it has been dead for a long time, what is the old man afraid of?

There is also a very important point, where is the old man's own body?

Mo Xun slowly opened his eyes, slowly put away the jade slip, and kept looking in the secret room, trying to find evidence to support his guess.

At this moment, the old man's somewhat impatient voice also sounded in his ears.

"Are you ready, young friend?"

Mo Xun nodded solemnly, and had a rough idea in his mind.

In this narrow environment, he faced only two situations, either he could win or he couldn't.

If he couldn't win, even if he chose to escape, it would be useless. It would be better to gamble everything, maybe he could survive.

If he could win, why run away?

But then again, facing this old monster that has lived for tens of thousands of years, I'm afraid even if he took out all the means at the bottom of the box, what chance of winning would he have?

Moreover, it is impossible to use the divine consciousness here. Whether it is the Qiankun Ring, the Xuanbing Gourd, or the magic weapon Linglong Ring, they can't exert any power at all. Even the Xuantian True Fire must be suppressed a lot.

He did think about summoning Bai Ze, and whether it would be helpful to use this little guy to devour the power of the Yin Ghost.

But the key is that this old man is not a ghost!

In short, he doesn't need to consider retreating for the time being!

Just as he was ready to go and circulated his spiritual power, the old man suddenly said: "Wait a minute, my friend. In order to prevent any accidents from happening to me later, I will give you the things I promised just now!"

As soon as the voice fell, a black wooden box appeared in front of Mo Xun.

The wooden box was not big, about half a foot square.

"Senior, what is this?"

The old man smiled heartily: "Inside, there are my lifelong experience of refining weapons and puppetry."

Hearing this, Mo Xun's heart, which was still doubtful, suddenly churned violently.

In just a moment, he quickly calmed down.

What does this mean?

According to his speculation, how could the old man be so kind?

Could it be that he saw the doubts in his heart and was afraid that he would not work hard, so he gave him some benefits in advance?

Mo Xun thought about it and it was not impossible.

Sure enough, the old man immediately said: "I am a dying man, and these things are no longer useful to me. If possible in the future, you can help me find a successor, so as not to let Qianji Pavilion break the inheritance...Okay, you can cast the spell with confidence!"

Mo Xun's mouth moved. Although he felt that the other party's kindness seemed a little inexplicable, he still agreed and expressed his gratitude.

Regardless of whether this person gave these things to dispel his doubts, it was a great opportunity for him.

After putting away the wooden box, Mo Xun turned his palm and a hot flame suddenly gushed out of his body.

However, this flame was not directed at the mummy in the secret room, but at the back.

With the raging fire behind him as a cover, Mo Xun did not hesitate at all, and suddenly exerted force on his feet, and rushed towards the mummy in the secret room with one step.

At the same time, an exasperated voice sounded in his ears.
