Chapter 428: The Eternal Curse
"follow me!"

The fortune wheel behind the crazy Taoist's head suddenly shone brightly, directly illuminating this huge underground space.

"That is!"

With the help of the light, Zhang Qian saw a round platform in the distance.

There was a figure sitting cross-legged on the platform, and this figure was locked to the platform by more than a dozen pitch-black chains.

"Hidden madman, are you still alive?"

The crazy Taoist shouted something to the figure and walked over.

When everyone came close to the stone platform and saw the figure's face clearly, they were suddenly horrified.

The figure sitting cross-legged was extremely strange, even weird. His lower body was made of stone, and his upper body was a living human body. His face was extremely old and full of wrinkles, and his gray hair was scattered behind his back, and was several feet long.

The old man closed his eyes tightly, and he did not open them even when everyone came close to him.

The strange thing is that Zhang Qian did not sense any pressure from this mysterious old man, as if the other party had no cultivation at all, but this was simply impossible.

"You crazy Tibetan, are you still alive? If you are still alive, just squeak."

The crazy Taoist waved his hands in front of the old man's eyes.

After a long while, the old man suddenly opened his eyes. They were cold and heartless, without any emotion.

The gray eyeballs moved slightly, and an ominous pressure erupted like a boundless ocean. Everyone felt their breathing stagnate and they couldn't breathe. The pressure from this old man was so strong that they had never seen before!

The pressure from the Demon King Taihao, Taixuanzi and other powerful Golden Immortals is so different from that of the old man in front of him that the difference is like heaven and earth!

Even when the old man's pressure appeared, the void of the entire underground space condensed directly.

"Even if you die, I, Cang Tianque, will not die. Crazy Taoist, you must have just woken up not long ago, right? Why do you come to my place instead of hanging out in the world of pleasure?"

"Hehe, Crazy Zang, you really haven't changed. Tsk tsk, this body of yours is the innate stone spirit you got from the Buried Emperor's Mausoleum, right? It's been so many years, why haven't you completely merged with it yet?"

The crazy Taoist was not at all restrained. He stretched out his hand and knocked on the stone lower half of Zang Tianque's body, which made a clanging sound.

"Humph, Crazy Taoist, do you think it is so easy to refine the Innate Stone Spirit? But it will be soon. I have already refined half of it. When I refine the other half, I will be able to completely become the Innate Holy Spirit and no longer fear any curse backlash!"

As he spoke, countless ominous runes emerged from Zang Tianque's body. Obviously, he was the source of billions of ominous things in the ancient city.

"Then you have to hurry up, otherwise... the Great Xia Dynasty's Nine Cauldrons are about to be born. Once the Great Xia Dynasty's seal is opened, it will all start. Why aren't you in a hurry at all?"

There was a huge secret hidden in the words of the crazy Taoist priest, which made Zhang Qian full of doubts. What he was most curious about was what was about to begin.

Cang Tianque was also like the crazy Taoist, playing dumb: "Anxious? I have seen every step clearly in the ancient times. It was that time when I forcibly peeped into the future that I was cursed. If it weren't for this innate stone spirit, I would have died long ago. You don't have to rush me. I will show up naturally when the time comes. I won't delay anything. Who are these people? Your new disciples?"

Zang Tianque looked at Zhang Qian and the others, and when he saw Meng Lingsu, he suddenly exclaimed: "Hundred Evils and Thousand Tribulations Body! It's a Hundred Evils and Thousand Tribulations Body!"

He saw through Meng Lingsu's physique at a glance, and a gleam of light flashed in his gray eyes.

"Meng Lingsu greets the senior!"

Meng Lingsu bowed slightly, feeling a little confused as to what to do.

"Child, come forward and let me take a good look!"

Meng Lingsu glanced at Zhang Qian, gritted his teeth, and came to Zang Tianque. "Hey, that's not right, there's something in your soul!"

Zhang Qian was shocked by Zang Tianque's words. He had used the Heavenly Demon Soul-Transforming Talisman to infect Meng Lingsu's soul and change Meng Lingsu's mind. After such a long time, the Heavenly Demon Soul-Transforming Talisman had already completely merged with Meng Lingsu's soul, but now Zang Tianque saw through it at a glance.

Zhang Qian had mixed feelings. Although he had not yet done anything good with Meng Lingsu, he had already regarded Meng Lingsu as his own. He didn't know how Meng Lingsu would react if she knew the truth.

"What an exquisite demonic power. But it's not enough. Let me show you what I can do!"

As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for Zhang Qian to stop him, Zang Tianque suddenly opened his mouth and sucked. Meng Lingsu's body immediately trembled violently and a look of pain appeared on his face.

Whoosh!
The next moment, a pitch-black demonic shadow flew out from the Baihui acupoint on Meng Lingsu's head, and the demonic shadow circled and turned into a Heavenly Demon Soul-Transferring Talisman.

Zang Tianque sucked the talisman directly into his mouth, chewed it, and then swallowed it.

"This……"

Zhang Qian was a little dumbfounded. What kind of cultivation level did Cang Tianque have? The Demon Soul-Transforming Talisman that was fused with Meng Lingsu's soul could be taken out so easily.

"Well……!"

Meng Lingsu opened her eyes in a daze, and met Zhang Qian's worried gaze. Murderous intent suddenly flashed in her eyes, and dense curse runes appeared in her hands.

Seeing that countless ghost face runes were about to attack, Meng Lingsu stopped, and the look he gave Zhang Qian became extremely complicated. Without the Heavenly Demon Soul-changing Talisman, Meng Lingsu was completely awake and regained his self.

However, her memory of this period was not lost and was still clear.

Thinking about every little thing between her and Zhang Qian, Meng Lingsu found that her murderous intent towards Zhang Qian had inexplicably disappeared.

"You killed Ye Lingxiao?"

Meng Lingsu's voice was a little cold.

Zhang Qian smiled bitterly: "Yes, I killed him. Do you hate me?"

"I...I don't know..."

Meng Lingsu was confused and didn't know how to face Zhang Qian.

At this moment, Zang Tianque suddenly opened his eyes. He stretched out his finger and pointed a rune, which was the Demonic Soul-changing Talisman.

"Not a bad thing, but it still has a lot of shortcomings." After the divine talisman dispersed, an ancient jade slip suddenly appeared in front of Zang Tianque, "Child, take this jade slip. You have a body of a hundred disasters and a thousand calamities, the same as mine. This is my previous cultivation method, the 'Eternal Great Curse'!"

"Senior, this..."

Meng Lingsu subconsciously looked at Zhang Qian, but immediately reacted, glared at Zhang Qian, and took the jade slip.

"Practice well, but remember, don't curse people who have higher cultivation and more luck than you, and don't try to spy on the future, otherwise no one can save you!"

Zang Tianque gave a warning and made no requests, nor did he ask Meng Lingsu to do anything for him. He simply handed over a terrifying method of cultivation to Meng Lingsu.

The crazy Taoist was not surprised at all, as if he knew Cang Tianque's style of doing things. He chuckled and said, "Crazy Zang, you owed me a big favor in the ancient times. I came to you today just to ask you to help me with the calculation, and then I will repay the favor. What do you think?"

"Hmph, you are good at taking advantage. Well, I will tell you. When I forcibly spied on the future, I saw the reason why you came to me today. Listen carefully!"
