Chapter 1416: Chapter 672: Jade Maiden

As soon as Tie Dan entered the Divine Court Realm of Zhu Yuer, there was a sudden turn, and a bottomless abyss was torn apart like a curtain of water, revealing a girl’s boudoir before his eyes.

Tie Dan opened the window and looked around, instantly finding the scenery very familiar, with a déjà vu as if he had been in a similar setting before.

Hadn’t he been here before? Zhu Yuer was only a few years old, her Divine Courtyard Dream naturally her own home, the Zhu family’s courtyard, the Duke’s mansion. Back then, it was here that Tie Dan kidnapped someone...

No, that’s not right, the seasons were different, the arrangement was different, the scenery was different, even the architectural style seemed to differ somewhat, richer and more magnificent than before, making the General of Cavalry Mansion look like a fallen house in comparison. Moreover, when he had kidnapped someone, he was standing on the rooftop, never sneaking into the women’s quarters in the backyard to peep, so where did this déjà vu come from?

Tie Dan was momentarily confused. However, just then, from the garden next door, came the sound of music and laughter, as if some gathering was going on. Tie Dan was thinking of flying over to check it out, but when he tried to leap up, he couldn’t fly. Then he realized his appearance had also been altered, and upon looking into a mirror, he saw neither a Sword Immortal nor a White Bone Demon, but an unfamiliar maid!

What a joke!

In the so-called calamity of Heavenly Demon Possession, two Divine Souls battle it out in the Primordial Spirit Realm, a clash of wills to break the host’s spirit, seize the host’s personality, devour the host’s memories, and take their place, like a fake replacing the real.

Therefore, no matter what kind of Enchanting Illusion Realm the Divine Court displays, its essence is a perilous fight, each outcome is a direct collision of Daoist Hearts, purely a contest of Divine Souls, with no room for tricks.

Naturally, as the Life Soul of the original body, the one being possessed has an innate advantage in the Illusion Realm, with greater affinity and control over the body than an Outer Demon, and the protection of the Heaven and Earth Dual Souls. As long as the determination, will, and belief are strong enough, and the Primordial Spirit is condensed, the calamity might pass as if it were a dream. If one is lucky, they might even shatter the Heavenly Demon Demon Soul, assimilate its knowledge and memories, akin to the fabled enlightenment from an immortal, or receiving teachings in a dream, many of which are actually like this.

Of course, Heavenly Demons aren’t fools. They choose weak fruits to crush, taking advantage when someone is severely injured or lost their soul. But they wouldn’t dare confront someone who’s already split themselves apart, with their Three Souls and Seven Spirits divided and employed elsewhere. So, they’d prefer newly dead, uncorrupted bodies or new infantile Daoist Embryos.

They exploit young boys and girls, who still have an innocent heart and haven’t encountered the dark side of the Cultivation World, using their years of life experience to deceive them, pretending to be some Wushan Goddess, Contract Divine Beast, or Old Grandpa System, tricking them into opening their hearts and believing fully. Thus, they can act at will in the Primordial Spirit Dream, reversing roles at their whim, altering memories and dreams as they wish, eventually seizing the body when the time is ripe.

As an aside, the Sword Sect’s Soldier Resolution and Possession technique generally turns them into an unparalleled treasure sword in dreams. After all, most boys can’t let go of a straighter stick at first glance...

Ahem, in short, now, Tie Dan is in the Primordial Spirit Illusion Realm, unable to use Sword Skill Immortal Technique, and even his appearance has been modified! This means his Primordial Spirit is being suppressed!

But this is strange! Although Zhu Yuer has some advantage as the host’s original Life Soul, ultimately she’s just an untrained mortal. How could she suppress someone like Tie Dan, a Great Cultivator at the Void Refining Stage!?

In the current situation, there are only two possibilities: one being the Heavenly Demon Black Pawn in the box is a strong existence at the level of the Pantheon! And this time it’s planning to ride the tribulation, seizing a host far stronger than even the Goblin Goddess, a Supreme possibly already at the Realm of Unity, hence overpowering Tie Dan’s Primordial Spirit!

The second possibility is that this Primordial Spirit Possession battle has already become a calamity!

Indeed, in these times of great tribulation, demons are emerging all over, continuously sparking calamities; once you step in, everyone becomes a piece on Liu Xiaoliu’s Heaven and Earth Chessboard, integrated with the Heavenly Dao Reincarnation, the greatest non-object rule of this universe. Thus, all those experiencing tribulations today are already in the Dream of Void created by the chessboard.

Of course, someone of Tie Dan’s caliber originally wouldn’t need to risk himself, but since he actively charged into this game, he probably needs to follow the rules, not flipping tables or breaking the game with cheats.

So, the priority now is to find Zhu Yuer’s Life Soul body in this dream, hold her consciousness to prevent it from being swallowed, while also capturing and eliminating that Heavenly Demon Black Pawn...

Hmm? Wait a minute... What a good opportunity?

Tie Dan suddenly realized this is indeed an opportunity for Soldier Resolution! After all, Huangfu Yi should also be in this calamity!

Yes, originally, the white piece transformed from Huangfu Yi’s Divine Soul had already been swallowed by Zhu Yuer. Since the Heavenly Demon Black Pawn has now forced Zhu Yuer’s possession battle, isn’t there an opportunity for Huangfu Yi to gain from the dispute of stork and clam?

However, first, he must find the three players of this game, but with such a large State Duke Mansion, where could they be...

"Xiao He! You lazy girl! Still hiding in the lady’s room slacking off!"

Just as Tie Dan was deep in thought, suddenly an old woman rushed in, reaching out to twist Tie Dan’s ear,
