pain!

A sting that penetrates deeply into the soul!

Soon, Meng Zhou confirmed that he had not been harmed.

This sudden severe pain was actually a phantom pain.

Just because I had just entered the body of Tai Sui who was hiding in the Gray Mist Mountains on the far side, I was unprepared to experience the feeling of self-destruction from a first-person perspective.

Because this experience was so real, even if his consciousness had returned to his original body, the pain was still with him, giving him an immersive and real experience subconsciously.

However, Meng Zhou had no intention of paying attention to this at the moment.

All his thoughts were focused on the only and final information captured after his thoughts entered Tai Sui's body on the far side.

A man with a shawl and an indifferent expression stood casually in the void, looking down at Tai Sui's body with an indifferent expression.

With just one look, Tai Sui's body, which had the third level of pill formation, seemed to be imprisoned, unable to move at all.

At the moment when Meng Zhou's thoughts entered Tai Sui's body, the man stretched out a hand and just touched Tai Sui's forehead and eyebrows.

He seemed to be searching for the soul by force.

But unfortunately, his outstretched finger was like a needle poking into a balloon that was almost inflated to the extreme.

Almost at the moment when the man put his hand between the eyebrows of Tai Sui's body, his unstoppable force wanted to penetrate deeper -

BOOM!

Just like puncturing a "balloon" composed of flesh and blood, Tai Sui's body instantly exploded from the inside out and turned into a ball of blood mist.

Although, this only happened for a moment.

Meng Zhou only had time to use the eyes of Tai Sui to roughly see the appearance of this indifferent man.

In an instant, Meng Zhou felt a loud "boom" sound in his heart.

"Lian Ziling?!!!"

Meng Zhou was no stranger to this person.

To be more precise, "Yanzhuang" is no stranger to it.

Meng Zhou obtained all of Yan Zhuang's memories, and what Yan Zhuang knew was naturally what he knew.

What's more, after knowing that Yan Zhuang was just a puppet with strings and that there was a very invisible manipulator behind him, he even consciously remembered that he had interacted with Yan Zhuang, or even only knew him, but he

The monk from Xingxiu Palace, who had never interacted with each other before, reviewed it over and over again countless times.

Yan Zhuang is naturally no stranger to "Lian Ziling", who is known as a genius among geniuses and one of the powerful contenders for the new Nascent Soul.

However, after searching all of Yan Zhuang's memories, he had no personal relationship with this "Lian Ziling".

Even if there were occasional close encounters, they were always in public gatherings, and the exchanges between them were only very formulaic words.

All along, until the moment Yan Zhuang died, "Lian Ziling" was just a faint, symbolic figure in his heart.

There is no deep friendship between the two parties, and there has never been any personal relationship.

Yan Zhuang would never have imagined that his relationship with him would be so deep.

At this moment, the image of "Lian Ziling" solidified into a painting in Meng Zhou's heart.

…

Go back in time a little.

Sea of ​​Stars.

Not long after the five sects joined forces to instantly wipe out the four secret forces that served as the "eyes" of Xingxiu Palace.

In an island cave, a hurricane suddenly emerged.

When the sudden hurricane stopped, Lian Ziling's face was revealed with a slightly flushed figure.

There is no doubt that he is the one who pays the most attention to the trends in the five realms, the so-called giant wilderness of Xingxiu Palace.

It can even be said that he focused almost all his attention here after practicing.

Before, he had used so many reasons to convince several others, but his real purpose was also for this place.

Long before persuading "Big Brother" and others, he had already used his authority to make strategic adjustments to the forces loyal to the Constellation Palace in the Juye Wilderness, quietly activating them who originally focused on hiding in order to survive.

Let him have a comprehensive understanding of the current situation of the Juye Wilderness Territory (Five Territories).

Immediately afterwards, he successfully persuaded "Big Brother" and others to advance the scheduled date of Xingxiu Palace's re-emergence several times while ensuring that his cultivation level, which had just broken through the Nascent Soul level, would not be greatly affected.

Year.

He thought that his response was fast enough and his reaction was timely enough, but now——

Lian Ziling, with a flushed face, sat there cross-legged, his expression changing.

Doubt, gloom, hesitation, cruelty...

Because of the violent fluctuations in thoughts, the cultivation level that had not been completely stabilized showed signs of loosening again.

At least the efforts of the previous few months will be in vain.

But now he has no intention of paying attention to these. The successive incidents in the wilderness have made his determination, which he thought was firm and never wavering, finally have doubts, hesitations and other emotions.

What makes him feel most irritated is that until now, he doesn't know what is going against him!

At this moment, two messages flew into the island from a distance and stopped in front of his cave.

Those were two subpoenas, respectively from "Elder Senior Brother" and "Second Senior Sister".

Their summons all told him one thing: Xingxiu Tianchi can now be officially opened.

——Although there is an opening plan provided by him, not only does it take time to open, but it also takes time to officially activate it after it is opened.

Considering that his "Third Junior Brother" and his "Fourth Junior Sister" who broke through to Nascent Soul later than him have not broken through for a long time, what is most needed is to seize the time to settle down and stabilize, and it is not appropriate to invest time in such trivial matters.

Therefore, "Elder Senior Brother" and "Second Senior Sister" took the initiative to take over this job.

This also makes it convenient for Lian Ziling to seize the time to stabilize his cultivation and always be able to devote some of his energy to paying attention to the dynamics of the Juye Wilderness Territory (Five Territories).

At this moment, after receiving the news that Xingxiu Tianchi could be officially opened, Lian Ziling no longer felt happy in his heart.

Instead, I felt an indescribable anxiety.

"No, no, we must do something, we must do something!"

He felt an indescribable sense of passivity. If he just went to Xingxiu Tianchi to "learn" like this, the growing uneasiness in his heart would really make him suffocate.

"At least I have to know what happened and who my enemy is!"

With this thought in his mind, Lian Ziling gritted his heart, gritted his teeth, and made a decisive decision.

Thinking like this, he did not immediately get up and go to the place where Xingxiu Tianchi was, and continued to sit cross-legged in the cave's quiet room.

…

A few days later, two more messages urging him to hurry to Xingxiu Tianchi entered the cave.

But when these two messages entered the cave, they did not fall behind. Instead, they started "wandering" left and right in the cave.

Just because there were two Lianzi Tombs in the cave.

One of them was sitting cross-legged on the stone couch in the quiet room.

His face was pale, and his aura at the Nascent Soul level fluctuated up and down, and the fluctuations were extremely violent, giving people a feeling of being on the verge of falling and falling at any time.

On the other side of the cave, there was another Lian Ziling.

Breathing calmly, expression indifferent.

Just standing there gave people a strong and extremely intimidating feeling.

Sitting cross-legged on the stone couch, Lian Ziling looked as pale as a sheet of paper and looked extremely haggard.

He stretched out his right hand tremblingly, and there was a yellow paper talisman in his hand.

He patted this talisman on his body with trembling hands. In an instant, all the abnormalities on his body disappeared and he returned to a perfect state.

This is not a real recovery, it is just a clever disguise, just to make yourself look normal in front of a few other people.

Finally, he looked at the other "Lian Ziling" with a complicated expression, which happened to collide with another pair of indifferent eyes.

If he had the choice, he would not be able to do this.

If there were no Xingxiu Tianchi, this decision could be called "reckless" and could even destroy his foundation from the ground up.

Originally, the thought of making rapid progress in a short period of time with the help of Xingxiu Tianchi has become a luxury.

His greatest hope now is to use the help of Xingxiu Tianchi to restore the current incomplete foundation.

With this thought in his mind, Lian Ziling stretched out his hand and took the two "at a loss" messages in the air. Then he slowly stood up from the stone couch and gave "Lian Ziling" a final look indifferently before saying a word.

He left the cave.

Another Lian Ziling stood in the cave, motionless, his expression still indifferent, not knowing what he was thinking.

After leaving the cave, Lian Ziling rushed all the way to Xingxiu Tianchi.
