The stone mountain, which had withstood countless years of erosion, seemed unable to bear the pressure of Night Spirit’s presence and shattered completely. Yet, the trace of spiritual energy released by Night Spirit temporarily held the rubble together, preventing it from fully crumbling.
He had achieved this without exerting any real effort—a feat that, arguably, no one else in the entire Buried Immortal Void could accomplish. But Night Spirit had done it.
Though he appeared to be nothing more than a servant to the Grandmaster of Earthly Spirits, in his heart, he had never truly recognized a master. He was merely using the Grandmaster for his own ends. For years, he had used a jade pendant to suppress his cultivation, leading everyone to believe his strength was lacking. This allowed him to plunder resources everywhere without raising suspicion. After nearly ten thousand years of forbearance, Night Spirit was no longer the man he once was. Had he not signed a soul pact with the Grandmaster of Earthly Spirits, it would be uncertain who was the master and who was the servant.
