The evil sacrificial spirit's words made me speechless.
In my eyes, Lu Zhenyang was my archenemy, but in his eyes, Lu Zhenyang was just a nobody who had inherited his inheritance. He could kill him easily. That was why he didn't care.
After a moment of silence, I didn't say anything.
In the evil sacrificial spirit's mind, the revival of the monster race was his biggest hope. If he could use Lu Zhenyang, he wouldn't be willing to kill him.
Although he was good to me, I couldn't be arrogant. Lu Zhenyang, I had to do it myself.
After thinking it through, I didn't mention Lu Zhenyang anymore and turned to look behind me.
When Lu Zhenyang had attacked me, the fatty had used his body to block the attack. Lu Zhenyang's Chiyou Axe had smashed the Monster Refining Gourd together with him.
According to my speculation, the fatty had been sucked into the Monster Refining Gourd when he was in danger. However, the Monster Refining Gourd had been smashed, and I didn't know how the fatty was doing.
Seeing that I was looking into the distance in silence, the evil sacrificial spirit asked me about it. I told him all of my worries and asked him to wait for a moment. I quickly returned to the place where Lu Zhenyang and I had just fought. I began to search carefully.
After the battle just now, the mountain walls were cracked, and countless rocks were flying everywhere. I searched inch by inch and turned over the rocks on the ground, but I didn't find any trace of the Devil Refining Gourd. It seemed that there wasn't even a single piece of the broken Devil Refining Gourd left.
According to my estimation, the Monster Refining Gourd had its own space. Even if it had been destroyed, the space inside wouldn't be a problem. However, I couldn't find a single piece of the Monster Refining Gourd.
At this moment, the evil sacrificial spirit followed me. Seeing my anxious face, he said, "The Monster Refining Gourd is a divine tool. It won't be destroyed easily. Get out of the way."
My eyes brightened when I heard him.
Right, the Monster Refining Gourd and the Chiyou Axe belonged to him. No one could be more familiar with them than him. Why didn't I think of that?
I hurriedly dodged to the side. The evil priest nodded and didn't say anything else. He lifted his leg and walked a circle around the place where Lu Zhenyang and I had fought. In the end, he stood at the spot where I had been standing. He raised his hands, right palm up and left palm down, as though he was hugging Tai Chi. A white mist instantly appeared between his hands. As he moved, the mist gradually expanded.
After a few breaths, he didn't seem to make any movements, but the white mist between his hands suddenly dispersed and spread out in all directions. Soon after, within a radius of a dozen meters, the rubble and debris on the ground all rose into the air. Soon after, it fell to the ground again, but there were some tiny particles that remained, still floating in the air.
After all the debris fell to the ground, the tiny particles gathered together under the influence of the white mist, forming a bronze ball. The evil priest waved his hands, and the bronze ball flew into his hands.
After doing this, the evil sacrificial spirit extended his hand and placed the bronze ball in front of me. "This is the Monster Refining Gourd."
I was stunned and quickly asked, "How did it become like this? Will the space inside be affected?
Will the people inside be able to survive? "
The evil priest shook his head. "In this world, the strongest power is the passage of time. Even an ancient divine tool can't withstand the ravages of time.
My axe, in terms of quality, can't be compared to the Monster Refining Gourd. However, after Lu Zhenyang obtained it, he nourished it for a period of time and recovered its previous power. However, the Monster Refining Gourd hasn't been nourished. The power of thousands of years has weakened it to an extremely weak state. That's why it was destroyed by the axe.
However, you don't need to worry. The divine tool has its own magical powers. Even if it's damaged, the space inside won't be affected. The people inside will be fine too. "
After listening to him for a long time, I finally relaxed after hearing the last two sentences.
As long as the fatty was fine, everything was fine.
After exhaling in relief, the evil priest rubbed the Monster Refining Gourd between his hands. The bronze ball instantly reverted to its original appearance. Then, he threw the Monster Refining Gourd to me. After I caught it, the evil priest continued, "From the extent of the damage, it will take a year and a half to recover before it can be used again. Take it first. When the fatty wakes up, give it to him."
Since the fatty was fine, even if the Monster Refining Gourd couldn't be used anymore, I wasn't worried. However, after hearing the second half of the evil priest's sentence, I was bewildered.
The fatty was the current owner of the Monster Refining Gourd, but the Monster Refining Gourd was Chiyou's item.
The evil priest had already woken up. Why didn't he take back this divine tool? Why did he still give it to the fatty?
I asked the evil priest doubtfully. He said, "First, he got it from my grave and it has already recognized him as its owner. Second …"
Then, he paused and turned to look at me. "Second, he's your friend, and the Monster Refining Gourd is a gift from you. How could I take it back?"
Listening to his words, I couldn't help but be speechless. I thought about the relationship between him and me before nodding. I didn't continue on this topic, but asked him instead, "Can you get the fatty out of there? I won't be at ease until I see him with my own eyes."
The evil sacrificial spirit didn't say anything, but pointed at the Monster Refining Pot in my hand. A seven-colored light surged out from the mouth of the pot, and the fatty's figure appeared along with the light. His fat body landed on the ground in front of me.
He was still unconscious. I was worried and hurried to check his breathing. Then, I urged my True Essence to enter his body to check his condition.
His condition wasn't good, but it wasn't as bad as I had imagined. He had fainted because he had consumed too much True Essence.
As for the power of Lu Zhenyang's axe, it was mainly blocked by the Demon Refining Pot. Although the remaining power had damaged the meridians in the fatty's body, looking at his situation, as long as he woke up and recuperated for a few days, he would be fine.
After confirming the fatty's condition, I finally relaxed. However, looking at the fatty's huge body, I became worried.
With my cultivation, it wasn't that I couldn't move him, but it wouldn't be easy to move such a big person. In the end, I asked the evil priest to put the fatty back into the Monster Refining Gourd. When he woke up, he would be able to control the Monster Refining Gourd and come out.
Since the fatty had already woken up, I didn't have to worry about this matter anymore. I prepared to leave, so I called for Liu Ruxu.
During the battle with Lu Zhenyang, he had also helped. However, after the evil priest appeared, he just stood in the distance and didn't come over.
When he heard my call, he didn't say anything. His black clothes fluttered in front of me. He didn't say anything and just pointed at my chest. Immediately after, his figure disappeared.
I lowered my head and saw that he was pointing at the Xiang Liu leather pouch that was hanging on my waist. Combined with what had happened earlier, I understood that he had entered the second volume of the Death Scripture.
After settling everything, I prepared to leave. However, the evil sacrificial spirit stared at the place where Liu Ruxu had disappeared with a pensive gaze. I was stunned. Just as I was about to thank him for helping me obtain the second half of the "Death Scripture", he waved his hand and pointed at the empty space behind him that had been created by the Ten Terminal Formation. "Don't be in a hurry to leave. Come with me to study that formation."
After saying that, he turned around and left. I was stunned. According to what he had said, the things in the tomb were set up by him and Monster Emperor Jun. What was there to study about the things that they had set up themselves?
Seeing that he had already walked over, I quickly followed him. When we reached the empty space, I prepared to walk over and stand next to the evil sacrificial spirit. However, he pushed me back and said solemnly, "Be careful. Stand back. It's very dangerous here."
I was even more confused, so I asked him about my previous doubts.
