The Flame Substitute was different from the light of virtue and the steel manifestation. It was purely a substitution technique, and after such a technique was used and canceled, the substitute generated from the previous instance of the technique should not reappear again.

It was the same as a fireball.

After a mage used a fireball, the ball of fire could be seized by an enemy and changed forcefully. However, the fireball changing should not change how the original technique worked in any way.

So what in the world was going on here?

After the adult Sixteen reappeared, her first reaction was to stretch out her hand and pull out her mirage horn.

Afterward, she tightly held onto it and stabbed it into her own body. She had no intention of living, and her mind was dead-set on killing herself.

“It’s ruined,” Song Shuhang murmured to himself.

“What’s ruined?” Lady Onion looked at Song Shuhang in puzzlement.

Senior White took a sip of tea and explained, “His Flame Substitution Technique.”

Song Shuhang looked up at the sky.

The (Flame Substitution Technique) was a life-saving trump card that could perfectly replicate the appearance of the main body and die in its place.

But now, once his Flame Substitute was summoned, it would immediately take on the appearance of the adult Sixteen. Because of this, it was much less useful. At the very least, it could no longer be used to deceive big shots into attacking the substitute instead of his main body.

As if that wasn’t enough, the adult Sixteen would immediately pull out her mirage horn and stab herself to death after the technique was used.

In the future, whenever Song Shuhang used the (Flame Substitution Technique) while fighting an enemy, the adult Sixteen, who had taken over his Flame Substitute, would keep trying to pull out her horn and kill herself. What use did he have for that?

“Yaaaa!” Finally, the Flame Substitute exploded, and the adult Sixteen let out a joyful cry.

According to her previous experience, as soon as the host died, she would break free.

After the Flame Substitute exploded, it simply disappeared.

The black-skinned Soft Feather asked, “Senior Song, how about using the technique

again?”

Song Shuhang made a hand seal and cast the technique again.

A new Flame Substitute appeared, still taking on the adult Sixteen’s appearance, which meant that the (Flame Substitution Technique) had yet to return to normality. The flaming adult Sixteen stared at Song Shuhang again.

She stretched out her hand and prepared to pull out her mirage horn.

“Stop struggling,” Song Shuhang said. “It doesn’t matter how many times you die. The only thing that happens after you die is the Flame Substitute dissipating. If I create a new one, it will still be you.”

“Yaaaa!” The adult Sixteen’s voice was full of unwillingness.

Song Shuhang sighed and said, “Citing a famous saying of the Nine Provinces Number One Group, if you seek death, then you will die! If you don’t seek death, then you will not die!”

Senior White asked, “Who said that?”

Song Shuhang replied, “It’s something everyone says to Senior Thrice Reckless and Immortal Master Copper Trigram.” Senior White nodded and said to Song Shuhang, “If you don’t seek death, you won’t die.”

The black Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword also said to Song Shuhang, “If you seek death, you will die.”

Song Shuhang asked, “Why are you saying that to me?”

Senior White looked at him and smiled warmly.

This smile alone was enough to protect people for a thousand years.

Inside a small pavilion.

Senior White changed the tea leaves and brewed another jug of tea for everyone.

In the meantime, Song Shuhang began using his psychic energy to smooth out the potholes in the ground left behind from the battle between the adult Sixteen and Sixteen.

At this time, Fairy Blue Phoenix’s voice came from outside the residence, “Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song, are you resting?” Lady Onion said, “Fairy Blue Phoenix is here.”

Song Shuhang replied, “We’re all awake, Fairy. Please feel free to come in.”

Fairy Blue Phoenix said, “I’ve brought a few more guests who want to meet Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song.”

More patients?

Song Shuhang said, “Alright, come in.”

He honestly had no qualms about it. It was actually quite good timing. With another wave of evil energy of the Netherworld coming to his doors right before the trial at Garre Holy Mountain, his Inner World might upgrade by the time the trial began.

After a while, Fairy Blue Phoenix rushed over with five beast cultivators.

Other than the leader of the five beast cultivators, the other four looked very uneasy. After all, the man they were going to be meeting was the most terrifying existence in the past thousand years, Profound Sage Tyrannical Song

“Huh? Not patients?” Lady Onion said with disappointment in her tone-more patients meant more treasures. Although the treasures were not spirit stones and could not be used to pay her wages, they could still be sold in exchange for things that could be used to pay her!

When Song Shuhang saw the five beast cultivators, he quickly got rid of the Flame Substitute.

The five beast cultivators who had come were the companions of the adult Sixteen.

The one leading the group of five was Daoist Turntable, who had 42 Holy Apes.

The group of five followed closely behind Fairy Blue Phoenix. At the furthest back was a female beast cultivator who was hugging her stomach tightly. She suffered from a disease that had only recently come into existence, a disease that went by the name of Tyrannical Song Speech Sequela and had spread across the universe wildly. While this disease did not affect one’s daily life, hearing the name of Profound Sage Tyrannical Song, seeing pictures or images of him, or hearing his voice, could lead to a relapse.

“Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song, Fellow Daoist Sage White, you should get ready. Garre Holy Mountain will be opening soon. Let me bring you over.” While saying that, Fairy Blue Phoenix took out a small seal, and motioned for Song Shuhang and Senior White to stretch their hands out.

Senior White and Song Shuhang held out their arms toward her.

Fairy Blue Phoenix first stamped the seal on Senior White’s wrist. The seal stamp shone faintly, and then disappeared.

Then, she faced Song Shuhang and got ready to stamp down on his arm.

“Wait a minute, Fairy Blue Phoenix.” Song Shuhang suddenly thought of something and said, “My body below the neck is not my real body. So, if the seal were to be stamped on my arm, when we enter Garre Holy Mountain, won’t my head be left out while the rest of my body enters?”

“Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song’s concerns are reasonable.” Fairy Blue Phoenix nodded. After saying that, she raised her hand and stamped the seal on Song Shuhang’s face.

It was important not to stamp the other party’s forehead. This was because there were many practitioners across the universe who possessed things like a third eye, or simply used their foreheads to release all kinds of attacks.

If that were the case, the effect of the seal might be affected.

This was why Fairy Blue Phoenix placed the stamp on Song Shuhang’s face.

After stamping the seal onto his face, Fairy Blue Phoenix took a few steps back, her cheeks flushed red.

Lady Onion blinked. “Song ‘Face Tattoo’ Shuhang.”

Song Shuhang retorted, “It’s a seal, not a face tattoo!”

Afterward, he looked at the tiger cultivator Daoist Turntable.

Daoist Turntable stepped forward and calmly said, “Senior Tyrannical Song, we have come to take back our companion as we agreed previously.”

After saying that, he looked at Sixteen.

“Huh? Sixteen, how did you become so small?” Daoist Turntable wondered, “Especially your… No, wait. Your whole body got smaller.”

Sixteen: “…”

Fairy Blue Phoenix was a little confused. The fairy beside Tyrannical Song is actually Daoist Turntable’s companion?
