Xu Suwen pulled out something resembling clothing from within her embrace and draped it over herself. The garment appeared to be made of dried cowhide, yet it had limbs and a clearly defined face, as if it were a human skin that had been flayed alive.
It was indeed a piece of human skin.
When Wei Ning recognized the skin, her expression changed dramatically, and she exclaimed, "Ning Suwen!"
Xu Suwen donned the human skin as if it were a perfectly fitting outfit. With her hands forming a seal, she underwent a transformation, astonishingly taking on the appearance of Ning Suwen.
"You! No matter what, Ning Suwen is your master and senior brother. How could you disturb his soul and turn him into this kind of Evil Spirit? Aren't you afraid of retribution in the Underworld?"
"Who cares!" Xu Suwen sneered. "I teamed up with that bitch Lin Lingsu to kill Ning Suwen. That bitch didn't even mention my contributions and instead claimed the old man's Fengyun Nine Escape for herself, not sharing a single bit with me. Who knows if she can deal with Ning Suwen today; what’s to say she won’t come after me tomorrow? I'm just being cautious and protecting myself."
"Dog-eat-dog, I don't care about your filthy affairs. But Xu Suwen, your heart is too dark. Do you have no respect for this world at all?"
"Heh heh, respect," Xu Suwen said with a sinister tone. "Back then, Ning Suwen calculated my fate for me. So what if I am the Star Master? This Dragon Tiger Mountain's leader was originally mine by right. In terms of experience and skill, that Yellow-Haired Girl is no match for me. Besides, her father was killed by me and Ning Suwen together. Heh heh, this splendid corpse garment was originally prepared for her; you just happened to be lucky enough to get the first taste."
Wei Ning sighed and said, "Xu Suwen, what goes around comes around. It seems today even old age cannot spare you. I’m just acting on behalf of justice; go die."
With that, Wei Ning swung her Peach Wood Sword, which shot down from the sky like a shooting star, propelled by tremendous force as it plunged toward Xu Suwen.
At that moment, Xu Suwen resembled Ning Suwen entirely; her demeanor and aura were indistinguishable from Ning Suwen's. The Nine Turns Ghost Possession Spell was one of the most insidious curses—akin to selling one's soul to an Evil Spirit in exchange for power. If one lacked sufficient willpower or mastery in cultivation, they would be backlashed by the Evil Spirit, losing their body and becoming its vessel.
Of course, in the realm of Daoism, the more sinister and harmful a spell was to oneself, the greater its potential power when unleashed. Xu Suwen had initially hesitated to use her Nine Turns Ghost Possession Spell at such a critical moment but felt compelled to unleash it against Wei Ning's relentless assault; otherwise, she would surely perish.
Life was hanging by a thread. How could one still pursue their grand dreams?
Xu Suwen raised her hand, effortlessly sending Wei Ning flying away. Wei Ning felt a surge of internal energy that was as soft as cotton, yet hidden within it were countless sharp needles pushing towards her. A sudden pressure in her chest made her lose her balance; her hand slipped, causing the Red Umbrella to tilt aside. One of her feet left the protection of the Red Umbrella and was immediately scorched, forming a large blister.
Wei Ning quickly pulled her foot back, feeling a deep pang of regret in her heart: this was Qiqi's skin, the very skin that Qiqi had painstakingly left for her. Qiqi was already gone, and if she couldn't even cherish this last gift from her, what kind of person would she be?
Xu Suwen bent down with both hands, her demeanor solemn. With a wave of her hand, the raging flames suddenly ceased, and the smoke dissipated. Standing amidst the ruins, Xu Suwen declared, "Blood Corpse, today you shall taste the power of Fengyun Nine Escape."
As she spoke, she stepped onto Yubu and continuously formed seals with her hands. "Ren Gao Protect Me, Ding Chou Protect Me, Ren He Du Wo. Ding You Protection, Ren Can Guan Hun, Ding Si Nourish Spirit, Lunar Canopy, Earth Door. I walk Yubu, Xuan Nu Zhen Ren, Mingtang Sitting and Lying, hiding in concealment. Swift as Nine Xuan Female Decree."
Upon finishing the incantation, a loud noise echoed through the air as a gap opened up. A woman appeared in mid-air, holding two lotus flowers in her hands, dressed in red above and yellow below. Her features were exquisite and ethereal.
Xu Suwen shouted, "Yin Spirit Jade Maiden, crush this Blood Corpse!"
The Jade Maiden obeyed the command; the flowers in her hands bloomed and scattered towards Wei Ning. Relying on her absolute speed, Wei Ning dodged the Jade Maiden's attacks time and again. However, as more and more lotuses fell from above, she gradually found it harder to keep up.
At that moment, Xu Suwen's hatred for Wei Ning burned deeply; she would not allow such an easy death for her enemy. With a wave of her hand, the Yin Spirit Jade Maiden halted mid-air, standing majestically with her head bowed.
Xu Suwen continued, "Blood Corpse, today I will make you die in the most painful way possible. I will first strip your skin off so that everyone can see your disgusting form. Then I will torment you bit by bit before finally sealing your soul within my Dragon Tiger Mountain for eternity."
Seizing the opportunity, Wei Ning swiftly attacked Xu Suwen. Xu Suwen did not dodge; instead, she unleashed the Nine Traps Talisman. Instantly, the atmosphere shifted dramatically with thunderous roars echoing around them as an unfathomable chasm opened between Wei Ning and Xu Suwen. This technique had once been used by Lin Lingsu as well but paled in comparison to the authentic Ning Suwen in both momentum and presence.
Xu Suwen smiled coldly; both in demeanor and grace she had learned from Ning Suwen perfectly. "Your speed is impressive," she declared loudly. "But my Concealment is faster." With that, she vanished from sight only to reappear right before Wei Ning in an instant. Her fingers flicked out rapidly towards Wei Ning's face and body as she taunted, "How about we start skinning from here?"
Wei Ning let out a muffled groan and quickly stepped back, but Xu Su stood firm on the Seven Star Yubu, his hands forming a seal. Suddenly, it felt as if the energy around them had been drained, and an immense pressure bore down on Wei Ning, making it hard for him to breathe. The gravity intensified, weighing down on him as if he were carrying a thousand-pound burden, causing his steps to falter and making it difficult to move.
Xu Suwen said, "Years ago, your master Wang Tuozi used mercury and gravity to skin seven monkeys alive. Today, I will do the same to you and see how long your Blood Corpse can withstand before it breaks free from your fragile skin."
Wei Ning felt the weight of gravity increasing, and he began to struggle for breath, as if he needed to find a place to vent his frustration.
With a cruel smile, Xu Suwen continued, "It's time. As long as I make an incision at your Spirit Cap, your Blood Corpse will jump out on its own."
With that, Xu Suwen leaped into the air, aiming to fly above Wei Ning. Suddenly, his entire body began to change color; his face grew increasingly pale as he clutched his head and rolled on the ground.
Wei Ning watched in horror as Xu Suwen's skin tightened more and more. His face was terrifying, his breathing labored. He trembled as he pleaded, "Master Brother, please spare me! It was that Lin Lingsu bitch who instigated me!"
Xu Suwen's hands gripped his throat tightly; breathing became increasingly difficult. Wei Ning felt a wave of relief wash over him as if he had been liberated.
As Xu Suwen's skin continued to constrict, his body began to shrink slowly. His cries were chilling and horrific until he gradually transformed into a puddle of blood.
The skin that once belonged to Ning Suwen began to rise slowly into the air. His eyes seemed to glance at Wei Ning one last time, stirring an inexplicable sense of panic within him. A voice echoed all around:
"Lin Lingsu, Lin Lingsu, Lin Lingsu. I am coming... ha ha ha ha... I am coming..."
