249: Chapter 247: Unbearable Friendship

Mo Jie's Divine Soul flickered, and he said in a deep voice, "Duan Wuya, my Cultivation has been completely destroyed, and my Divine Soul is shattered. I am beyond saving. If, before my death, I can help you, my only old friend, then I will die without regrets."

Duan Wuya's face was filled with astonishment and deep emotion: "Mo Jie, after all these years, I have been thinking about how to rescue you every moment, but I never had the chance. I'm sorry! My old brother!"

The gray-robed Cultivator's face showed emotion; the bond between Mo Jie and the Old Ancestor truly made him envious. If he could also have such a good brother, he would indeed die without regrets.

As he thought this, he also sighed at their misfortune. Now, one was old and the other crippled. Under such mutual affection, how could they allow the other to sacrifice themselves for their sake?

Duan Wuya's gaze was profound as he walked over to Mo Jie's Divine Soul.

"Brother Mo Jie, are you truly willing to help me achieve the body of a Corpse Puppet?"

The gray-robed Cultivator was full of astonishment; they were actually willing to sacrifice for each other? Such a bond truly made one envious!

Mo Jie, however, fell silent. Both sides stopped speaking. Everything had been said, yet it felt as if nothing had been said.

The gray-robed Cultivator's expression was solemn. He was definitely on his Old Ancestor's side: "Senior Mo Jie, why aren't you speaking? Could it be that everything you just said was false?"

Mo Jie's Divine Soul flickered, and he said in a deep voice, "What I said is, of course, true, and I am not unwilling to help Duan Wuya. After all, we are old friends! However, you must promise me one thing."

The gray-robed Cultivator, upon hearing this, angrily rebuked, "Mo Jie, we rescued you from Gu Shengge. You dare to make demands for helping our Old Ancestor? Don't you think that's going too far?"

Mo Jie's Divine Soul flickered, and he angrily rebuked, "Do you have a place to interrupt our conversation? Shut up!"

The gray-robed Cultivator was about to get angry when Duan Wuya, beside him, also cursed angrily, "Shut up! Why are you interrupting our conversation!"

The gray-robed Cultivator was reprimanded by Duan Wuya and reluctantly shut his mouth. Duan Wuya then turned to Mo Jie and asked, "Mo Jie, whatever demands you have, just state them. I will do my best!"

Mo Jie said in a deep voice, "I want you to kill Gu Shengge. You must make him perish in this Blackwater Heavenly Realm!"

Duan Wuya was full of astonishment: "Is that all?"

Mo Jie sighed, "Wuya, what else do you want me to ask for? In my current state, if I can help you kill Gu Shengge, that would be immeasurable Karma. So, can you agree?"

Duan Wuya frowned and said, "Mo Jie, even if you didn't say so, I would still kill Gu Shengge. Don't worry! You help me reconstruct the Corpse Puppet's body, and I will definitely kill Gu Shengge!"

Mo Jie said with relief, "Good! I believe you. Now, devour my Divine Soul. Everything you want to understand is within my Divine Soul. If you devour me, you will naturally be able to achieve the body of a Corpse Puppet."

Upon hearing this, Duan Wuya's Cultivation was already operating, beginning to devour his Divine Soul. Mo Jie's remnant soul was already very weak, and being devoured now, he couldn't resist at all.

Of course, he didn't resist at all, allowing Duan Wuya to devour his Divine Soul.

Mo Jie's Divine Soul was quickly absorbed into Duan Wuya's body. Under the solemn gaze of the gray-robed Cultivator, patterns of a Corpse Puppet appeared on Duan Wuya's gaunt body, shimmering with an eerie green light.

"Buzz!"

With a roar of energy, his state began to change. His body, which was about to dry up and decay, gradually recovered its vitality under the blessing of the Corpse Puppet runes, continuously absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy, making his previously fleshless body gradually fill out.

However, his condition was still extremely poor. A Corpse Puppet needed to absorb a massive amount of Qi and Blood to maintain its Physical Body. Without living beings to help him now, there was no way to recover.

He suddenly looked at the gray-robed old man, his killing intent completely unmasked, filling the gray-robed Cultivator with horror.

He quickly said, "Old Ancestor, please wait a moment. I will go and capture some living beings for you to absorb their Qi and Blood!"

Duan Wuya sensed the changes in his body and said in a deep voice, "I knew I shouldn't have left the Haoyang Realm back then. At least in the Haoyang Realm, we could absorb massive amounts of Qi and Blood, instead of having to search everywhere here! You go. If you don't return within three days, I will come looking for you and absorb your Qi and Blood!"

The gray-robed Cultivator was terrified: "Old Ancestor, I am your only direct Bloodline. You absolutely cannot kill me!"

"Scram! Go find living beings quickly! Then send me a message, and I will come over immediately!" Duan Wuya said.

"Yes! Old Ancestor, I'm going now!" The gray-robed Cultivator quickly left and disappeared in a short while.

After Duan Wuya watched him leave, he gradually withdrew his gaze. The Corpse Puppet patterns on his body shimmered with Divine Light, causing his body to gradually twist. The Divine Soul energy seemed to suddenly undergo an anomaly, twisting, and his Physical Body also changed shape along with it.

"Ah!"

"Mo Jie, what are you doing!"

Duan Wuya shouted, his eyes filled with killing intent. In a short while, he was rolling on the ground, the energy in his body completely out of control. Terrifying energy waves spread in all directions, the ground trembled violently, sand and rocks shattered, and the sea below also stirred up monstrous waves.

On the other side, Gu Shengge also teleported to the Blackwater Heavenly Realm through the spatial teleportation array. The black tides below surged, utterly silent and desolate.

This world was like a dead and barren realm, devoid of any life.

Gu Shengge somewhat regretted letting Mo Jie's Divine Soul go entirely at this moment. At least he understood some of the realm's situation, so he wouldn't be completely clueless after arriving here.

Gu Shengge stepped into the black ocean, a spatial barrier appearing around his body, and then he directly descended into the water.

As he delved deeper, life finally appeared below. Giant aquatic creatures, hundreds of feet long, swam in the depths of the ocean.

The Blackwater Heavenly Realm was not devoid of life; rather, most creatures lived in the deep-sea regions, their traces completely invisible from above.

After Gu Shengge descended, he saw a giant black octopus. The creature quickly discovered him, and its massive tentacles swiftly swept towards them. There was a certain devouring power on them, pulling Gu Shengge closer to the tentacles.

Gu Shengge did not resist. Instead, he followed the adhesive energy and quickly approached one side of the giant octopus, allowing it to firmly attach to his spatial barrier.

At the moment of attachment, Gu Shengge's Divine Thought suddenly merged into the octopus Yao Beast's body, quickly occupying its Sea of Consciousness. Then, the giant demonic octopus's memories and experiences were all displayed before Gu Shengge.

This enormous Yao Beast actually had no intelligence. For tens of thousands of years, it had survived purely on instinct and had even Cultivated to the level of a Nascent Soul Cultivator based on instinct, which made Gu Shengge click his tongue in amazement. How was that even possible!
