The hovering red jade came towards Mu Wu Shang and continued to hover...
"Kid fastly drip a drop of your blood on the red jade "spoke Guardian Snow with anxiety.
But seeing how things turned out to be Mu Wu Shang got suspicious of how he got here and some weird old beast wanted him to drop a blood on the jade.
He quickly remembered his old life in a movie the devil let's the MC to drip a drop on the scroll to sell his soul for his father's recovery (Ghost Rider)
Keeping that in mind Mu Wu Shang retreated and questioned in a cautious manner " Who are you? Why should I drip my blood on that jade? Why exactly did you bring me here? "
For all questions Guardian Snow simply replied " Don't you feel your blood throbe or any special feeling that red jade harms you "
"No it doesn't give me any harmful feeling instead It gives me a familiar feeling as that jade is with me for several years but you see I am a cautious person " replied Mu Wu Shang.
Although he's a seven year old Kid on outside in his past life he experienced cold and ruthless behavior of world so being cautious became a habit and not trusting anyone easily.
"cautious person huh but I don't see you like that, stop with your nonsense and speak what is in your mind kid " spoke Guardian Snow.
"I could ask you same thing first answer my questions then we'll see how should we further progress with our conversation " spoke Mu Wu Shang.
"I'm from Snow Ape tribe and I guard this island so everyone calls me Guardian Snow.
I brought you here to help you and as for your third question I answered it earlier that jade means no harm to you, if you fail you're free to leave this cave " spoke Guardian Snow, he wasn't least bit bothered by Mu Wu Shang questions instead he was impressed by this behavior because in this dog eat dog world if a person isn't careful and believe everyone he will just end up as a corpse on the side of road.
" Okay then what if I pass the test, what will I gain by doing that " spoke Mu Wu Shang .
"You'll know when you pass it " replied Guardian Snow.
" Hmmm he isn't spilling anything about rewards and I just have to drip a drop of my blood on it so I don't lose anything.Besides I got no choice in this matter even if I reject will he let me walk out of this place, I don't think so " thought Mu WuShang and bit his index finger and dropped blood on it.
As soon as Mu WuShang blood touched the Red Jade it started sucking his blood and blood started to continuously being absorbed into the jade melting it. This process continued for several minutes and with a 'CRACK' sound the runes continuously emerged from the Red Jade and started to disappear.
The Jade melted and revealed a Crimson Red drop of blood with golden runes on it.
At the loss of blood made him little bit dizzy but that little loss of blood is nothing for Mu WuShang because he is at ninth stage of Qi Accumulation and he could just eat and sleep to recover.
From sidelines Guardian Snow watched the entire process with gaped expression. As soon as the Jade melted he's thrilled beyond words.The thousand years he waited for this very moment to happen and when it happened he got no words to express just shed happy tears thinking ' Master your servant will be able to see you soon '
--------------------------------------------------
While this was going on in unknown depths of
Earth a soul silhouette of an aged person was sealed with the chains and placed talismans all over his body.
As the runes on the Red Jade was broken the chains began to clatter and the inscriptions on them started to fade off. Cracks started to spread along the chains and with a huge sound 'Boooomm' they shattered into tiny pieces and dropped down.
" Hahahahha at last I broke from this wretched seal, I'm free from this cursed seal which put me in slumber for a thousand years, hahaahah Emperor Mu when I recover my strength I'll exterminate your Nine generations and I'll make sure that not a single spawn of your bloodline exists in this world. As for that servant of yours I'll refine him into my puppet. Ghost Emperor's wrath will unleash on this Earth, hahhahahaha " A crazed laughter with sinister Qi busted out but it soon got contained by the surrounding talismans.
"How long do you think that you'll keep me contained ' BREAK FOR ME ' ",the pressure started to build upon the talismans but a bright golden light shines from the talismans and they started to suppress the Ghost Emperor.
----------------------------
' CRAAACK '
Cracks started to emerge on the platform where Guardian Snow usually meditates, hearing those sounds Guardian Snow's joyous moment shattered and he went towards the platform and sat on it with lotus position and started to suppress the cracks with all his strength.
As the lights on the talismans are at the brink of destruction, it got revived with Guardian Snow's Qi and started radiating brightly keeping the Ghost Emperor contained.
" I can neither suppress him much longer nor I can use my total strength. If I use it I'll be forced to ascend to immediately and can't completely support Mu family from Ghost Emperor. " sighed Guardian Snow.
Looking at the naive seven year old kid holding the Crimson Red blood with golden runes on it hovering above his palm " Kid listen to me carefully I don't have much time to explain " spoke Guardian Snow.
"What is wrong with you, did I do something wrong to harm you tell me guardian " spoke Mu WuShang with concerned tone. Although My WuShang is cautious person he is not a ruthless person. In his past and present life he never hurt someone intentionally and when he helped tribal people in killing the cave master with the help of Mu Peng because he's a person who has ill intent and troubled tribal people for years.
