The Gu Master grunted heavily, "I have spirit Gu protecting me, my strength is no weaker than you Immortals!"
"Is that so? Try taking another punch from me!" With that, he raised his fist to strike again.
The Gu Master was startled and quickly retreated a few steps, "Stop hitting!"
Ye Tian stared at him, "Speak, what are you doing here?"
The Gu Master said, "I heard that an Immortal resides here. My Immortal Machine Gu can only be carried by the body of an Immortal. I want to use his body to raise the Gu."
Ye Tian sneered, "You've got it all figured out! Where is the Immortal Machine Gu?"
The Gu Master's face changed drastically, "What do you want to do?"
Ye Tian replied, "You want to use my body to cultivate some Immortal Machine Gu, I should at least see what it looks like, right?"
"No!" the Gu Master said agitatedly, "You can't touch it!"
*Slap!*
Ye Tian slapped him on the head. The Gu Master's eyes rolled back, and he fainted.
Kusuo Tamahime breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Mr. Ye, it's fortunate you came out in time."
Ye Tian patted her back, and she suddenly spat out a grayish substance onto the ground, within which a dozen small insects were wriggling.
Kusuo Tamahime's stomach immediately stopped hurting, and she joyfully exclaimed, "Sir, I'm alright now."
Ye Tian nodded. He reached out and felt around the Gu Master's body. On his chest, there was a small pocket sewn inside. Tearing it open, he found a small gourd with a stopper.
He sensed it with his divine sense. There was indeed a worm in the small gourd. Its aura was very mysterious; it must be the Immortal Machine Gu.
As soon as he took the gourd, the Gu Master, who had been unconscious, suddenly opened his eyes and whispered, "Possess!"
The gourd suddenly exploded, and a purple light shot into Ye Tian's body. Ye Tian was startled and was about to react when his body suddenly stiffened. He then fell straight to the ground, his eyes tightly shut and his teeth clenched.
The Gu Master slowly stood up straight and chuckled sinisterly, "I told you, spirit Gu can protect me. Did you think you could hurt me? What of it being an Immortal? In front of this Gu Master, you are still no match!"
Kusuo Tamahime was shocked and angrily said, "What did you do to Mr. Ye?"
The Gu Master said proudly, "I summoned the Immortal Machine Gu. Now the Immortal Machine Gu has invaded his body. He is now the carrier of the Immortal Machine Gu. With his body, the Immortal Machine Gu may be able to mature completely!"
Kusuo Tamahime was furious, "You are too shameless!"
The Gu Master said calmly, "This is wisdom, not shamelessness. Beautiful lady, you will come with me too. Your beauty is worthy of this Gu Master."
Kusuo Tamahime said sternly, "You wish!"
The Gu Master smiled faintly, "You will agree."
At this moment, Ye Tian felt he had lost control of his body. His consciousness sank into a silent space, surrounded by a vast expanse of white, making nothing clear.
Not far away, a distorted human face emitted strange laughter, appearing and disappearing.
Just then, Li Xuangui's voice echoed in Wu Bei's mind.
"Ye Tian, you've been controlled."
Ye Tian's body trembled, "Old Li, what should I do now?"
Li Xuangui replied, "This is the Immortal Machine Gu. It is different from ordinary Gu; it can control a person's primordial spirit. Now, it has taken control of your primordial spirit. Subsequently, it will completely occupy your body and undergo an important transformation within your body."
Ye Tian asked, "Old Li, you know about the Immortal Machine Gu?"
Li Xuangui said, "I specialized in studying Gu techniques in my past, which is why I know about the Immortal Machine Gu. This Gu is no trivial matter; even I might not be able to contend with it. You were too careless; you shouldn't have fallen for this Gu Master's trick."
Ye Tian replied, "I saw that his cultivation was ordinary and didn't take him seriously. Alas, I was indeed a bit careless."
He then asked, "Old Li, can you help me?"
Li Xuangui responded, "I can help you, but you have to agree to one condition."
Ye Tian asked, "Old Li, you haven't been waiting for an opportunity like this to make a condition, have you?"
