At the moment when the soul of "Yan Shizun" was shattered and the sea of ​​consciousness collapsed.

Hundreds of thousands of miles away, on a mountain peak rising abruptly like a sharp sword, stood a small palace.

Although this palace is small, it gives people a deep, thick, airtight sense of enclosure and stability.

Quiet and dim.

The palace door is obviously open, but the moment the sunlight shines through the door, it seems to automatically add a layer of cool air.

This temple seems to possess a special power and maintains an atmosphere of absolute silence.

It gives people the illusion that even if a needle falls on the ground, the sound will resound throughout the entire palace.

But the actual situation is just the opposite. Let alone a needle, even if someone enters the temple and deliberately taps their feet to walk, there will not be any abnormal sound. All the noise will be "eaten" by the ground under their feet.

There is nothing else in this palace, except for tokens with strange textures hanging on the walls at the deepest part of the palace.

Densely packed tokens are hung on the walls layer by layer from top to bottom, with nearly a thousand in number.

On each token, there is a name engraved on it.

At this moment, a crisp cracking sound suddenly came from one of the tokens.

"Click——"

This crisp sound instantly broke the tranquility of the palace.

The crackling sound contained the feeling of a piece of precious but fragile porcelain falling to the ground and smashing into pieces.

Almost at the moment when the crackling sound spread throughout the palace, a figure flashed inside.

His eyes instantly caught the broken token.

The moment he saw the broken token, his pupils shrank suddenly.

【Yanzhuang】

This token is engraved with the word "Yanzhuang".

It can be seen from the fragmentation traces that the fragmentation started from this name and then spread to the entire token.

The name that was originally a complete name seemed to have been cut into pieces by a thousand knives because of this fragmentation.

However, this man's heart was turbulent, but his hand movements did not stop at all.

After confirming which fragmented token it was, he quickly stretched out his hand to take the fragmented token and put it into a black wooden box with a special shape, as if it was specially prepared for this purpose.

When he put the broken token into the wooden box, he also took out a token from the wooden box and hung it in the place where the broken token belonged.

【Yanzhuang】

The name is exactly the same, and even the aura emanating from the token is exactly the same. It blends in perfectly with the surrounding tokens, and no one can notice anything unusual.

And that's not all. His eyes moved down and locked on a token with the word "Li Xin" engraved on it.

Then, his fingers in his sleeves quickly kneaded the seal, and the moment he finished the last seal.

Within the sea of ​​​​consciousness, his soul, which was kneading in sync with his body, shouted loudly:

"Curse, Li Xin, male, has a life span of one hundred and eighty-nine years. If he is born at three o'clock on the seventh day of the first lunar month, he will die!"

In an instant, an invisible force seemed to spread out from his sea of ​​consciousness.

The next moment, he seemed to hear an illusory howl coming into the sea of ​​consciousness.

And at the moment when this miserable howl entered the sea of ​​​​consciousness, the token with the word "Li Xin" engraved on the wall in front of him seemed to have been hit hard by an invisible force. The complete name was shattered, and the entire token was shattered.

It also became broken.

But this time the break happened silently.

The shattering sound that should have resounded through the entire palace did not.

Just because at the same time as the token was shattered, the man's left hand in his sleeve made another seal.

Then, the shattering sound that should have sounded in the palace sounded in his sea of ​​consciousness.

"Click——"

In the real palace, it seemed to be just a relatively ordinary sound, but when the sound was transplanted into his sea of ​​consciousness, it seemed to have the power to split the sky.

In order to seal the shattering sound within the sea of ​​consciousness, the soul trembled several times. Finally, the soul exhaled a breath of turbidity, and the whole soul seemed to become a little illusory, and then it was completely stabilized.

Feeling that the foundation of his soul was damaged, the monk's eyes suddenly turned gloomy and cruel for a moment.

But soon, he regained his composure again.

It's a long story. In fact, from the time he flashed into the palace to the time he finished handling all this, it didn't even take two breaths.

And just when he calmed down, several more figures flashed into the hall one after another.

Soon, there were several monks standing beside this person, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the broken token.

Everyone looked at it in silence for a moment, and then one of them removed the broken token and made slight adjustments to the positions of the other tokens, so that the vacant area was refilled.

The token wall becomes complete again, with no obvious holes.

After doing all this, the group turned around and walked out of the temple.

Including the monks who arrived here a breath or two in advance and did a lot of tricks in secret, they also walked out of the temple together with the others.

And just when everyone was walking out of the palace, several messages rushed towards them from a distance and fell into the hands of several people.

These transmissions all talked about the same thing. A disciple named Li Xin died accidentally due to a mistake in his practice during the retreat.

Because the accident happened so suddenly, he didn't even have time to make any precautionary preparations. His whole body exploded directly, and even a corner of the retreat cave was collapsed.

Flesh and blood turned into mud, and no bones remained.

Everyone who had just left the palace had already seen the result in advance, so after receiving this message, they were not surprised at all. They just felt a little regretful and then dispersed without further explanation.

…

After doing some simple processing of the scene, Meng Zhou decisively walked away.

He didn't expect that the simple processing he did before leaving could erase all traces, he just hoped to delay Qingxuanzong's actions.

In the process of responding to the unexpected incident of "Yan Shizun", Meng Zhou's true body did not show up from beginning to end.

Even in the end, only the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone was exposed.

And even the exposed clone of the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus still had many reservations during the fight with "Yan Shizun".

The only time he made a move was when he used a dense rain of swords to tear out a gap in the divine soul armor with terrifyingly strong defensive capabilities. Unbounded Sword Domain took advantage of the gap and struck a fatal blow.

All this happened secretly and ended so quickly that even the person involved, "Yan Shizun", was shattered even before he could figure out the situation.

When Qingxuanzong's spaceship arrived at the scene of the battle with Xuan Jue and other monks from the Law Enforcement Hall, Meng Zhou was already in another second-level evil vein more than 10,000 miles away.

Meng Zhou did not rush back to the Sanchuan Plain, but chose a hidden enough place in this evil vein to start dealing with the real aftermath.

The golden lotus clone of the earth spirit who had just created the great power not long ago was sitting cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed, motionless.

At this moment, Meng Zhou had completely taken over the clone and was carefully observing all the subtle changes in the clone's body.

Once, when faced with Qiao Yu, a disciple of the third-level alchemy sect, Meng Zhou did not take any action himself, leaving the final blow to Lu Quan to complete.

Lu Quan's performance afterwards also showed that what he did at that time was correct.

Even Lu Quan, who was a member of the Alchemy Sect, could not escape the influence of his fellow disciples. If he had been the one to do it at that time, he would have caused a lot of trouble out of thin air.

Even the third-level sects have similar methods. Facing a fourth-level Xingxiu Palace sect member with a higher origin and a richer and more ancient background, how could Meng Zhou not have similar concerns.

Although there was no scapegoat like Lu Quan on the scene, Meng Zhou still did some tricks.

Objectively speaking, of course it was the Unbounded Sword Domain he used that pushed "Yan Shizun" off the cliff.

But in theory, the person who really harvested his last remaining blood and killed him was the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone.

Although he was using the Unbounded Sword Domain to freeze the soul of "Yan Shizun", and using the Soul Drawing Technique to dismember his soul into pieces.

But because of his deliberate control, this was still in the category of "serious injury" and was still a hair away from death.

Then, due to the unprecedented weakness of the soul, "Yan Shizun" completely lost control of his body.

When he first appeared in the canyon basin and the two of them had not officially fought, the "muffled thunder" buried in his body by the golden lotus clone of the earth spirit, which was completely channeled and suppressed by his magic power, was completely out of control, and just right, his

The life that had been hanging by a thread was completely over.

Therefore, the person who "pushed him off the cliff" was Meng Zhou, but the one who really killed him was the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone.

And this Linglian clone is hugely different from most clones.

Not only is there no connection between Meng Zhou's own essence, blood, flesh and blood, but his soul is also independent.

Unlike other clone techniques, although the body is divided, the soul level is actually one, or it is a clone of the soul that is separated from the main body of the soul.

The "flesh and blood" composed of spiritual lotus, and the "divine soul" composed of the ownerless spirit lingering on the statue of Lihen. Such a spiritual lotus body can be regarded as a person different from Meng Zhou from the perspective of mysticism.

of independent individuals.

It was based on this understanding that the arrangement was made to let the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone make up the final blow.

Now, Meng Zhou was glad that he had made this prudent decision.
