Chapter 267
"Heaven and Earth Cage, seal completely!" Adam shouted once more.
The formation’s power skyrocketed, like a brilliant, purifying sun, the light began rapidly obliterating the black mist covering the island.
"Heavenly Essence Righteous Qi?! How do you know the Heavenly Essence Righteous Technique?! Impossible! Hasn’t this been lost to history?!" The Thousand-Year Old Corpse roared in terror and rage.
It felt an unbearable pressure crushing down on it as it desperately tried to break the formation’s bindings.
However, Adam’s formation had already become impenetrably solid, the corpse thrashed wildly but could not break free.
Sensing it was on the brink of collapse, the entity bellowed in a final, maddened attempt to shatter its cage, but Adam and Cecilia were perfectly prepared, working in total unison, they manipulated the formation to thoroughly suppress the entity.
"Heaven and Earth Cage, Complete Seal!" Adam commanded softly.
The formation’s radiance instantly blanketed the entire island.
"No! No! You can’t do this! I finally had a chance to break the seal! NO!" The Thousand-Year Old Corpse thrashed in agonizing pain, making its final, desperate death throes.
The black mist plunged into one last frenzied surge, but in the end, it was completely futile.
"NO!" With one final roar, all the black mist entirely dissipated.
The quaking island finally fell dead silent, the Thousand-Year Old Corpse was once again successfully sealed.
With the blessing of the Heavenly Essence Righteous Technique, the seal was now exponentially stronger, it was virtually impossible for the corpse to ever influence the outside world again.
As the island returned to normal, Adam and Cecilia let out long sighs of relief, this deadly crisis was finally resolved, at least temporarily.
Adam closed his eyes, sensing the Heavenly Essence Righteous Qi flowing through his body, and joy washed over his heart.
This confrontation with the Thousand-Year Old Corpse had allowed him to comprehend a long-lost supreme technique, massively elevating his overall strength.
"You aren’t going to use that against me, are you?"
A soft, alluringly seductive voice suddenly whispered right next to his ear, scaring Adam half to death.
He turned his head and found it was the faceless woman.
"Hehe, Sister, how could I? My meager Dao techniques wouldn’t have any effect on you." Adam quickly smiled.
The Heavenly Essence Righteous Technique was the most formidable technique for suppressing dark and Yin entities.
Since the faceless woman was a Ten Thousand Year Soul Spirit, it would naturally have a strong effect on her.
"Hmph, at least you know what’s good for you." The faceless woman’s voice rose.
With Adam’s current cultivation, even if he used the technique, he wouldn’t pose a real threat to her.
But his strength was progressing far too quickly, his background was a complete mystery, and he knew far too many divine abilities.
In her understanding of the world, no one could possibly master this many.
Adam was absolutely not an ordinary person, his physique was definitely not mortal either, she even speculated that Adam might be the illegitimate child of the Heavenly Emperor, left behind in the mortal realm.
Only someone with that kind of background could access so many different paths of divine abilities.
But she had no proof, if he truly was the Heavenly Emperor’s illegitimate son, she lacked the capability to verify it.
"Of course, Sister, how could I ever use it against you? You are a wonderful person and a great beauty, the Heavenly Essence Righteous Technique is meant for those crooked, evil existences that plague the mortal world." Adam was telling the absolute truth.
After spending so much time together, aside from her penchant for bullying the artifact spirit of the Dragon Tiger Jade Auspicious Scepter, the faceless woman truly hadn’t done anything wicked.
She wasn’t stupid, even though Adam’s mouth was sweet, she could distinctly feel the Heavenly Essence Righteous Qi radiating from him, which inherently exerted suppressive pressure on her.
Once his strength increased, if he decided to bully her, it would be far too easy.
"You sure know how to talk." She snorted. Just as her figure was about to vanish...
Cecilia’s voice rang out. "Sister, what’s your name? We can’t just keep calling you Sister forever, right?"
Cecilia was actually very curious about her identity.
She really wanted to know who this woman was, but since the Young Master had brought her back, it wasn’t her place to ask too many questions.
She had only heard a few passing remarks, this was a woman the Young Master had accidentally brought back while traversing the chaotic void.
It was evident that her strength was unfathomably formidable, considering she had drifted in the chaotic void for so many years.
"Hmm, that’s true, I never did mention my name." The faceless woman nodded, seemingly having forgotten entirely.
"My name is Sylvia, I am roughly ten thousand years older than you two, so just call me Sister Sylvia from now on."
Ten thousand years old, calling her Sister truly wasn’t a loss at all.
"Got it, Sister Sylvia!"
"Thank you, Sister Sylvia!" Adam and Cecilia called out simultaneously.
"Mhm, I’m tired, I’m leaving first." Sylvia didn’t stick around, her figure quickly vanishing.
Although Adam knew her concealment technique, he couldn’t use it to pinpoint her location, he had no idea where she was running off to play with the Dragon Tiger Jade Auspicious Scepter.
Ever since she could no longer hole up inside his divine soul, she frequently took the Scepter out for strolls.
After all, Adam was either reading books or cultivating all day, it was just too boring for her.
In truth, Sylvia was also afraid Adam might ask why she had been drifting in the chaotic void.
Why was she asleep? She wouldn’t even know how to answer, some things were better left unknown, she and Adam were neither family nor old friends, there was no need for him to know so much.
"Cecilia, pack things up, we’re leaving this place!" Adam commanded.
Although this location was extremely remote, just to be absolutely safe, Adam still wanted to thoroughly erase all traces of himself and Cecilia.
