At the sight of this, Minghe went into a reverie. In the end, he shook his head and flew over to the throne. Looking at the chipped and dimmed Haotian Mirror, he reflected somewhat. Finally, he sighed for Haotian, or whatever that might be.

He picked up the Haotian Mirror to closely scrutinize it. Chipped as it was, it was still acceptable. Besides, it had been a Highest Grade Primordial Supreme Treasure. After some repairing, it would be brand new and as powerful as if it were used for the first time. It was more capable than the Haotian Mirror in the Ninth Period, a priceless treasure.

Moreover, the Eighth Period Haotian left his Spiritual Inheritance in it. Although it was not that necessary, stones from other hills might serve to polish jade, so he could use it as a supplement. Besides, the Spiritual Inheritance in the Haotian Mirror really intrigued him. He then started converting it.

"What?" The Haotian Mirror shone very brightly when Minghe was absorbed in converting it. A silver light shot to s.p.a.ce from between Minghe's eyebrows, and then the entire Heavenly Court seemed to be activated. The lights became nine silver chains that tied Minghe to the throne. In the meantime, another strong power joined to suppress him.

In Minghe's Sea of Consciousness, Haotian's figure showed up, still in the form of a ghost. His ghost now was much more intact than before. But, Minghe's Original Spirit was chained in front of Haotian by nine silver chains. Haotian laughed at the sight of this. "Hahaha..."

Haotian laughed hard, but Minghe was still calm. He did not get startled, as if he was not chained at all. Looking at the triumphant Haotian, Minghe just said, "I see. You've planned to possess my body for your rebirth?"

Haotian stopped laughing and echoed him. "Yes, I have. Indeed, I can build myself a new body for rebirth, but that kind of body has limits. I don't want to degrade my achievements in the future. Thus, I decided to use possession and rebirth. Though it also has limits, I can manage to remove them."

Possession and rebirth were like a dove occupying a magpie's nest. However, it risked causing a discordance between the Original Spirit and the body, thus affecting one's cultivation and performance. Hence, this would usually be the last resort. But, you could spend a lot of time to erase the discordance by nouris.h.i.+ng your body with the Power of Original Spirit.

Of course, there was a shortcut, which was to completely devour the Original Spirit of the one possessed. This way, it would save a lot of time. But, because of the devoured Original Spirit, the possessor would, in some way, acquire the emotions and habits and other things of the possessed. Moreover, this kind of influence would be amplified with external stimulations.

Haotian sneered at Minghe's Original Spirit and said, "Minghe, it seems like you practice Tao of the body, since your Original Spirit is so tiny. Now your body is tied in the Heavenly Court, and your Original Spirit is also chained. You are a lost soul. You can only blame it on your carelessness and greed."

"Oh, really?" A voice echoed from behind Haotian. Haotian's face turned pale when he saw Minghe standing there, with an Original Spirit much stronger than the one that he had tied. Moreover, a Golden Wheel of Merit appeared around Minghe. You could imagine how scared Haotian was.

"How did you..." Haotian was speechless. Then, he turned to Minghe's chained Original Spirit. It was vanis.h.i.+ng into the air and the silvers chains also faded away. Moreover, Haotian was unable to feel the Haotian Mirror and Heavenly Court, as if he had been disconnected.

Haotian felt so frightened. It was well-known that he had relied so much on the Haotian Mirror and Heavenly Court. Now, he only wanted to escape the Sea of Consciousness. But it was too late, as one and then another silver chain crept up on him and tied him tightly.

Haotian tried so hard, but his Original Spirit and Power of Original Spirit were both tied up. He was not able to resist even a bit. Under such circ.u.mstances, his face darkened. He was completely lost now and could only be handled by Minghe.

Minghe smiled, but Haotian's face darkened even more. The smile seemed so mocking in Haotian's eyes. It seemed like Minghe was mocking his previous acts. Thus, Haotian replied, "It turns out you were prepared for this. When did you see through my plan?"

Minghe shook his head and said, "Sadly, you exposed yourself. Before I entered, I found something strange. The small world hiding in the mountains, guarded by tactical and forbidden formations. The broken forbidden formations were camouflaged to make people think that it was an animal attack, but I saw that it was a human attack. You did well, but I did better."

Haotian's countenance was terribly gloomy now. Minghe still continued, "The damage was new, made shortly after the opening of the Battlefield of G.o.ds and Demons. I searched nearby and there were no other Creatures except for the Ominous Beasts of Chaos. In that case, it could have only been deliberately damaged by the designer.

"The designer chose to reveal it at this point in time, which meant that he was trying to set up a trap with bad intentions. After your stories in the Battlefield of G.o.ds and Demons and your eagerness, I saw your intention more clearly. It was easy to tell that you had some dirty trick."

"Saw more clearly..." Haotian raised his head and snapped. "What was I hiding? I might have lied, but what I told you about the Battlefield of G.o.ds and Demons was completely true. How could you see more clearly...? Why did you pretend since you already saw through me?"

Minghe grinned. "How would you fall into my trap if I didn't pretend? Oh, my body isn't as simple as that. Now I am a Rakshasa, my Original Spirit practiced both the Law of Blood and Law of Spiritual Beings. Actually, you can't beat me even if you're in your best state. Now you're just a ghost, I can let you into my Sea of Consciousness, where you are more vulnerable."

Haotian clenched his fist. "A Rakshasa's body, an Original Spirit at the Peak of the Zenith Heaven Realm, and Minghe practices well in the Law of Spiritual Beings... I would be daydreaming if I wanted to obtain all that. Minghe lured me to the Sea of Consciousness. Now I am disconnected from my Magic Weapons. The Haotian Mirror and Heavenly Court may have been captured by him. But how, how did he do that?"

Minghe went on. "Your story had holes. First, if you were defeated quickly in the Medium Layer district, how could you know its complete structure? How would you know about the suppression you'd face when returning to a lower layer district? It was just wrong, except that you had acquired the information there somehow.

"Second, I practice the Tao of the soul well. Although your ghost was feeble, I could see your connection with the Haotian Mirror. It showed your intention clearly. Third, the Heavenly Court was turning into a Spiritual Treasure of Chaos. You hid it from me because you thought I was a newly-born Primordial Mazinger and couldn't tell the difference. Well, I am now suppressing your Heavenly Court with my Cauldron of Heaven and Earth."

Haotian had nothing to say since he was completely lost now. He could only blame it on fate to draw such a scourge. If that man was one of Zhenyuanzi's people, he could have succeeded. Sadly, the mandate of Heaven was lost here. Haotian simply had no way out.

Minghe did not say anything more to insult Haotian. Right away, he extracted Haotian's memory and erased him completely. Haotian indeed left no means untried, but wound up like this because of Minghe. It was such a shame.

In the Divine Wind Palace, Minghe stroked the throne and grinned. "This Haotian was like Luohou, with the same fate." Now that Haotian's ghost was completely gone, the Haotian Mirror and Heavenly Court were indeed unowned. Thus, Minghe simply converted them. The Haotian Mirror was a piece of cake, while the Heavenly Court was already turning into a Spiritual Treasure of Chaos, which made Minghe take it seriously.
