At this moment, Ku E was draped in a tattered abbot's robe, his face emaciated.
His eyes were bloodshot, and dark smoke coiled around him, a true form of his demonic transformation.
He coldly regarded the shadow of Gui Cang, filled with disdain and ferocity in his eyes.
A twisted familiarity colored his voice: "Cang, do you dare to challenge me for control over the body?"
"To this day, if it weren't for the fact that you have better Buddha Son foundations than I, and could allow me to reincarnate through your body and break into a higher realm, I would have devoured your consciousness long ago!"
Gui Cang's consciousness shadow slowly opened his eyes, a more complex pain on his face now.
He looked at Ku E, his voice carrying a near-dismal tranquility: "Amitabha."
As the words fell, the Buddha Light in the Sea of Consciousness seemingly dimmed, and a stifling silence pervaded the air.
