The Legendary Man Chapter 1304-âKill me⦠Or else the child will die tooâ¦â
Josephine tightly gripped Jonathanâs right hand, her face scrunched in agony.
By then, Jonathan had nearly ground his teeth to dust as he glared at Jason.
He roared, âJason, there must be a way to save both mother and daughter. Donât tell me you canât do it!â
âI have a solution!â
At that moment, Jason finished preparing the medicinal solution in his hand.
âThis is an oxytocin injection, Mr. Goldstein. If you administer this into Ms. Smithâs lower abdomen, it can help alleviate her pain!â
At this point, Jonathan was beyond anxious. Hearing Jason say this, he took the oxytocin injection and stabbed it into Josephineâs lower abdomen without any hesitation.
Josephine let out a sharp scream before immediately falling into complete silence.
On Josephineâs abdomen, a trace of purple began to travel along the blood vessels where the needle had pierced, continuously spreading throughout her body.
âJason⦠Whatâs going onâ¦â
Jonathan, with trembling hands, looked at Josephineâs round belly and asked loudly.
In response, Jasonâs lips curled into a cold smirk.
âWhat else could it be? You just killed your own wife and child with your own hands!â
Jonathan stood frozen to the spot, stunned. Two teardrops, red as blood, fell from his eyes.
âNo⦠This canât be realâ¦â
Josephine turned to Jason and reached out to seize his throat.
âSeboxia⦠Itâs you causing mischief again, isnât it!â
Jonathanâs voice trembled as he spoke, causing a wicked smile to appear on Jasonâs face.
âJust realizing it now, are we? Isnât it a bit too late? Jonathan, I truly feel so sorry for you. Even if you know everything in front of you is a lie, you still fall for it.â
Pausing, Jason continued, âDo you know? If it werenât for your concern for others, you might have already transcended to Divine Realm long ago. The path of cultivation is ruthless. Your talent for cultivation is completely wasted on someone like you. Why not entrust your body to me so I can help you achieve Great Pryncyp? After all, destiny favors those who are prepared, doesnât it?â
As Jason was speaking, his figure flickered, and in an instant, he had already whisked Jonathan to Edenic Heights.
As the scenery around him changed, Jonathan looked at Seboxia with a serious expression.
âHah! I get it now. You keep taking me to all these illusionary realms, all in an attempt to find my weakness. If Iâm not mistaken, youâve once again drawn me into your divine space, havenât you?â
Seboxio, with o spirituol beod in hond, still wore on expression of compossion.
âWhy else do you think I left o gop in the coffin for you? Jonothon, you ore the most suitoble vessel Iâve found for possession. How could I possibly be content with being your nonny?â
Jonothon sot on the rooftop of No. 1 Villo in Edenic Heights.
Since this wos Seboxioâs reolm, he could conjure onything from reolity os long os he wished.
Yet, ot this moment, Seboxio hod only conjured up the monsion. He did not creote ony living creoture.
Jonothon knew thot Seboxio would never let him out ogoin ofter pulling him into his divine spoce this time.
Seboxio could eosily set the illusionâs durotion to lost into infinity. When thot hoppened, even if Seboxio didnât lounch ony ottocks ogoinst Jonothonâs consciousness, the lotter would still eventuolly go mod under the torment of time.
At this point, being ot the mercy of Seboxio hod olreody become o foregone conclusion. As such, Jonothon octuolly found himself reloxing.
âSo, ever since you discovered thot I hod o woy to counter your divine spoce, you storted plonning oll of this?â
âOf course.â Seboxio nodded with o smile. âJonothon, do you know? You ore the most unique cultivotor I hove ever met in over o thousond yeors.â
âSince the down of recorded history, you ore the second person to hove cultivoted Pryncyp of Deoth.
Itâs o pity, however, thot youâve stroyed off course. Otherwise, even I would hove to be wory of you.
Whot surprises me the most is thot ofter I shottered your Cor, you were oble to ochieve enlightenment ond consolidote it ogoin. Moreover, youâve hod two such enlightenments in less thon holf o month. Do you reolize thot your luck is so extroordinory it conât even be described os defying the heovens?â
Upon heoring this, Jonothon wos slightly token obock. Then, he suddenly burst into heorty loughter.
âI see. So youâre soying the reoson you sobotoged my Cor before wos becouse you were ofroid Iâd reoch Divine Reolm, os once my spirituol sense tokes form, you wouldnât be oble to possess me, right?
And these lost two times, you deliberotely kept me from ochieving enlightenment. Youâve been throwing o wrench into my plons oll olong.â
Upon heoring Seboxioâs words, Jonothon finolly understood why Seboxio chose to stick with him.
Seboxia, with a spiritual bead in hand, still wore an expression of compassion.
âWhy else do you think I left a gap in the coffin for you? Jonathan, you are the most suitable vessel Iâve found for possession. How could I possibly be content with being your nanny?â
Jonathan sat on the rooftop of No. 1 Villa in Edenic Heights.
Since this was Seboxiaâs realm, he could conjure anything from reality as long as he wished.
Yet, at this moment, Seboxia had only conjured up the mansion. He did not create any living creature.
Jonathan knew that Seboxia would never let him out again after pulling him into his divine space this time.
Seboxia could easily set the illusionâs duration to last into infinity. When that happened, even if Seboxia didnât launch any attacks against Jonathanâs consciousness, the latter would still eventually go mad under the torment of time.
At this point, being at the mercy of Seboxia had already become a foregone conclusion. As such, Jonathan actually found himself relaxing.
âSo, ever since you discovered that I had a way to counter your divine space, you started planning all of this?â
âOf course.â Seboxia nodded with a smile. âJonathan, do you know? You are the most unique cultivator I have ever met in over a thousand years.â
âSince the dawn of recorded history, you are the second person to have cultivated Pryncyp of Death.
Itâs a pity, however, that youâve strayed off course. Otherwise, even I would have to be wary of you.
What surprises me the most is that after I shattered your Cor, you were able to achieve enlightenment and consolidate it again. Moreover, youâve had two such enlightenments in less than half a month. Do you realize that your luck is so extraordinary it canât even be described as defying the heavens?â
Upon hearing this, Jonathan was slightly taken aback. Then, he suddenly burst into hearty laughter.
âI see. So youâre saying the reason you sabotaged my Cor before was because you were afraid Iâd reach Divine Realm, as once my spiritual sense takes form, you wouldnât be able to possess me, right?
And these last two times, you deliberately kept me from achieving enlightenment. Youâve been throwing a wrench into my plans all along.â
Upon hearing Seboxiaâs words, Jonathan finally understood why Seboxia chose to stick with him.
Ever since he went to West Region, Seboxia had taken up residence within his elixir field.
As it turned out, the Remdik Emperorâs heart, kept by Sanctuary atop Mount Enly, was simply Seboxiaâs secondary goal. Jonathan had never known the initial reason for Seboxia choosing to reside in his body.
But now, he finally understood. It was possession.
The reason for Seboxia choosing to reside in him, destroying his Cor, and saving himâall of Jonathanâs doubts were cleared at this moment.
Heâs always considered me nothing more than a walking vessel.
Jonathan looked at Seboxia and asked indifferently, âSeboxia, Iâm curious. Why didnât you take action before? My cultivation level is only at the middle phase of God Realm, so why would a great cultivator like you, who has reached Divine Realm, need to beat around the bush with me? With how powerful your spiritual sense is, I could never possibly be your match, even at my peak.â
His tone was calm, as if he were discussing the life and death of an unrelated person and not himself.
Upon hearing this, Seboxia slowly took a seat opposite Jonathan.
âBecause of your Pryncyp of Strength. No one can comprehend multiple Pryncyps, and that is the absolute rule of the universe. That is especially the case between you and me, as one of us uses the Pryncyp of Life while the other is the Pryncyp of Death. If I had forcibly seized control at that time, most likely, we would have both died due to the clashing of the two Pryncyps. Thatâs why before I seize your body, I must make you completely abandon the Pryncyp of Death and shatter your Cor.â
âBut thereâs no need for you to feel regretful. Iâm sure you can tell that youâve gone astray in your understanding of that Pryncyp. If it wasnât for me shattering your Cor back then, you would have died from forcibly trying to achieve a breakthrough. When you think about it that way, Iâm actually your lifesaver. Iâm the reason you managed to live this long.â
Jonathan chuckled, âSo, should I be thanking you then?â
âThereâs no need for that,â Seboxia said, shaking his head with a smile. âEngaging with you continuously is an interesting process for me. Besides, protecting your body is also in my own interest.
All right, Jonathan, now that Iâve cleared up your confusion, you shouldnât have any more concerns. Itâs now time for you to enter the afterlife!â
