What If I Can’t Die?

300 The Six Paths of Reincarnation (1)
Song Shi was stunned. “Eh, you haven’t lost your mind? It makes my words seem a little silly.”

What made him even more confused was that another human face appeared in the other eye. It was actually Ghost Butcher.

Not only Ghost Butcher, but he also saw Old Man Nightmare.
He was flabbergasted. “Are you all the Calabash Brothers[1]? How many souls can a Nine Nether Spider contain?”

Lu Jiu, who had just regained some of his rationality, had his curiosity piqued by Song Shi’s words. “What kind of demon is the Calabash Brothers? Is it very powerful? I’ve never heard of it.”

“It’s just seven brothers born from calabashes on a vine. They each have an ability but are not very strong. They only know how to spit fire and lift heavy things.”

Song Shi explained seriously then asked, “What exactly is going on? The Calabash Brothers were born from the same vine so at the very least, they are brothers. This doesn’t count, right?”

“We couldn’t think of another method. The Nine Netherworld Devil Spider is an extremely sinister and evil ferocious creature. I knew that one person would definitely not be able to withstand the corrosion of the Nine Netherworld Devil Spider’s ferocious nature, so when I asked them to help, I wanted to use the minds of many people to control it, but I still failed.”

Lu Jiu explained the reason with a helpless expression. “I didn’t have any previous experience, yet I still wanted to cooperate, but it became even more chaotic.”

“I see. What about my maid, Bai Xiaoqin?”

Song Shi asked again.

“She—”

Lu Jiu shook his head. “She disappeared after the sect was destroyed.”

Song Shi guessed that Bai Xiaoqin had escaped through the Teleportation Talisman and asked again, “What about Lu Youyou? I came because of my promise to her.”

However, Lu Jiu revealed an expression of agony. “She’s dead. When we lost control and attacked the three Ghostly Emperors here, she was swept away by the spatial rift because of that. Not even her corpse was left after it.”

Song Shi was silent.

Lu Youyou was actually gone just like that. Although he was already mentally prepared, hearing it with his own ears, Song Shi could not help but think of the spatial storm they had experienced and feel a little emotional.

“Sect Master, have you forgotten? Youyou isn’t dead. We’ve already consumed her spirit.”

Old Man Nightmare sighed.

Song Shi’s hair stood on end. “What the hell? Why does it sound so much like a ghost story? Which one of you is telling the truth and which one is lying?”

Lu Jiu’s face contorted in disbelief, “Wasn’t she swallowed by the rift?”

“She was indeed swallowed because you asked us to control the Nine Nether Ghost Spider to rush over to rescue her. At the last moment, we ate her and kept her soul and she become a part of the Nine Nether Ghost Spider. It was precisely because of this that we completely lost control of the spider.”

Old Man Nightmare sighed and lamented, “Sect Master, you used up too much energy to save Youyou and your consciousness fell into a deep sleep immediately so you didn’t know what happened next. Later on, we protected Youyou’s soul and we all fell asleep too.”

Lu Jiu frowned as he vaguely recalled something.

Ghost Butcher looked at the fourth eye of the spider. “Back then, we tried our best to preserve her soul and placed it in the fourth eye. However, Youyou was too weak and wouldn’t wake up even now.”

Song Shi was flabbergasted. His gaze landed on the fourth eye with a fierce light and he vaguely saw Lu Youyou’s figure.

“Are you all multi-souled?”

Song Shi’s eyes widened. “You guys are so powerful. Does this has something to do with having multiple souls in one body?”

“More or less. If we can control and devour more souls, the Ghost Spider’s strength will be even more terrifying.”

Ghost Butcher nodded. “But there are too many consciousnesses in it, so we can’t completely control it.”

At the side, Lu Jiu said with an afflicted expression, “I remember the situation now, but even You You is like this. The Heavenly Ghost Sect basically only exists in name now. What’s the point of revenge?”

“It’s not just Youyou. The souls of many elders of our sect have been devoured by the Nine Nether Ghost Spider. It’s as difficult as ascending to the heavens if one wants to rebuild the Heavenly Ghost Sect.”

Ghost Butcher’s expression was desolate. As they were depressed, the ferocious aura of the Nine Nether Ghost Spider suddenly soared and its eyes turned blood-red. Unholy and violent will surged out, wanting to devour their consciousness.

The three consciousnesses immediately revealed expressions of affliction. They wanted to resist, but it was difficult for them to gain the upper hand.

“Sect Master, I can’t control myself anymore. I want to kill someone.”

Ghost Butcher’s soul’s eyes slowly turned blood-red, and it was in a berserk state.

“Leave quickly. Before you even manage control this damned thing by a little, you will lose your rationality and become a crazy murderer.”

Lu Jiu hurriedly said to Song Shi, “Take the others who are still alive and leave this place. Tell them to give up on avenging us. If they can continue the legacy of the Heavenly Ghost Sect, so be it. If they can’t, then forget it.”

“I disagree.”

Song Shi shook his head, “I promised Lu Youyou to save you all. It’s fine if your souls have already dissipated, but since you all are not completely dead, I have to try to recover your souls.”

He sized up the Nine Netherworld Ghost Spider that was trembling and about to recover its control to start a massacre, “At the very least, you have to be like the Calabash Brothers on the same vine and have your own consciousness so that you won’t be controlled by this beast.”

“Fool! You’re not our match if you stay here. Even if you’re very difficult to kill, it’s impossible for you to be a match for the perfected Soul Transformation Nine Nether Ghost Spider.”

Lu Jiu was anxious. “I beg you, please leave quickly. At least leave a few people alive so there is still a little hope of rebuilding the Heavenly Ghost Sect.”

Song Shi pursed his lips, “Don’t worry. I’ve already gotten my subordinates to bring out a group of people who were in the way. I’m staying here because I want to play with you all.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the few of them were completely devoured by the blood-colored light. Swirls appeared one after another, and the souls of the four of them were swallowed.

All the eyes of the Nine Netherworld Ghost Spider turned blood-red and they were once again filled with a violent killing intent.

It raised its head and let out a sharp cry. It stared fiercely at Song Shi and launched another ferocious attack.
