I raised my eyebrows: "Why?"

He looked at me with a serious expression: "I know you may not trust me now, but as you can see, even I can't do anything about that black mist. After all, you have helped me, and I don't want you to die."

This does make sense: “So what exactly is this thing?”

He sat up with difficulty and took out a pack of cigarettes from his body.

I've never seen him smoke.

Seeing that I was a little surprised, he smiled and said, "It'll stop the pain, Brother Xu, don't mind."

It seems that because he was honest with me, he has liberated his nature, and his tone of voice is not as polite as before, but has a trace of vicissitudes.

"This thing is really big. Have you ever met the boss of the Life and Death Sect?"

I nodded slightly, a little unsure whether just seeing his back counted as seeing him.

Song Wei exhaled a puff of smoke, and his frown eased slightly: "That's an amazing thing. When it raises its hand, it can change the lives of many people. And the thing in front of you is its pet.

.”

"Pet?" I couldn't believe my ears. Even I couldn't see through this thing's illusions and bewitching abilities, but it was just a pet?

Song Wei nodded: "That's right. At the final level of every trial, there will be such a monster guarding the final exit. No one can leave him until the evil spirit who created this level is defeated."

"But this place is a maze! Haven't we checked it in the past two days? Except for the center, there is no way to go anywhere else, and it doesn't look like a scene created by an evil spirit." I frowned and thought to myself.

Song Wei's eyes fell on Hei Wu, and he took a long puff of cigarette. After a while, he said: "Yes... This is why it took me so long to tell you the truth."

He originally didn't believe in evil and believed that the maze was just an illusion created by innocent souls. He planned to guide me through the final trial together.

But in the past few days, he has not felt the existence of the wronged soul at all.

Dead end.

"I have participated in so many trials, and this is the first time I have encountered a situation that forces everyone to die. I think there must be something wrong with this situation."

As he spoke, he stood up with my support.

He groped the wall with one hand while approaching the black mist: "I'm afraid the client this time won't be that simple."

I picked up the backpack he left behind and followed him step by step: "So what are you going to do now? How did you get the wounds on your body?"

He stopped when he was still a few steps away from the black mist.

"This thing is much bigger than when I first saw it... By the way, have you ever thought about where the people we killed before went?"

I was stunned by his question.

If you think about it carefully, in the maze, although we were forced, we did kill a lot of people.

Song Wei and I always plundered everything on their bodies and never looked back. Naturally, we never checked where their bodies were.

I walked up to him and stood side by side: "Are you saying that the corpses of the people here were devoured by something?"

He shook his head slightly: "Not only that, this thing also swallows the souls of the dead. To be precise, it makes the people who die here become a part of him forever."

"Seeing as you are so familiar with the use of Luminous Pearl, you must have been to the place between life and death, right?"

I nodded, ghost temple.

"Then you can probably understand what kind of state this is."

Life is not considered life, and death is not considered death. Although we can move freely, these things are

I was a little surprised: "How could it be possible... Shouldn't this kind of place be created by gathering the yin and yang energy of heaven and earth, plus some heavenly secrets?"

He glanced at me lightly: "It seems that you still don't understand the Gate of Life and Death... That's right. Although you have a special physique, you haven't been exposed to much of the Chaos Qi of the Gate of Life and Death. It seems that you haven't had much contact with it."

I was angry, and neither this person nor Zhong Ling, and even Daochang Chen, were willing to tell me anything.

"Then don't lie, who is the boss of the Life and Death Sect, and how can he control such a thing?"

He and I looked at each other and said: "You can only wait for him to tell you the identity of the boss of the Life and Death Sect. If I tell you now, it will affect your destiny."

Seeing the obvious unconvinced look on my face, he added: "Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you have become immortal after eating Tai Sui. You should also know what you will look like after you are assimilated in the end."

When I heard this, it seemed that he had directly seen through what kind of physique I had? He was indeed not simple.

"Then if we want to deal with this thing now, don't we have to fight against a ghost of life and death? How is this possible?"

Of course I'm not afraid of killing ghosts and beating people, but what we are facing now is actually a piece of land.

What to do?

Song Wei touched his chin and pondered for a while: "Actually, it's not difficult to say. I said that this place is actually the pet of the boss of the Life and Death Sect, right?"

I nodded, but didn't understand the meaning.

"As the saying goes, if you hit a dog, it depends on its owner. Now we can't hit the dog, so we can only ask the owner what he means."

As soon as he finished speaking, something seemed to flash out of his hand and rush out.

I didn't see clearly what this was, but there was no doubt that the spiritual power that exploded from Song Wei's body at that moment was stronger than anyone I had ever seen.

"Let's go, Taoist Xu, we should set off now." As he said that, he raised his feet and prepared to walk into the black mist again.

We just escaped from it, and now we have to set foot again, which inevitably makes me a little more scared.

Song Wei seemed to know what I was thinking. Before going in, he threw half of the potion for dispelling the illusion to me. This seemed to be the result of my previous waste. It would be better to use it this time. I will regret less when the water is used.

I took it and took a sip, carefully putting the rest in my pocket.

I followed Song Wei step by step. He was very anxious and used the luminous pearl in his hand to guide me. He walked very firmly, as if he was very familiar with the route inside.

Black fog, endless black fog.

It also had a strange tactile feeling. I felt as if I was soaked in something sticky when I walked, and indescribable whispers sounded in my ears from time to time.

It actually got darker as we walked inside, so I followed Song Wei closely in order not to get lost.

After walking for about a few hundred meters, the scenery in front of me still didn't change at all. I couldn't help but ask: "How far is it?"

I felt Song Wei stop and I bumped into his back.

"What, is this the right place?"

He still didn't answer, the only sound left in the air was my breathing and heartbeat, and everything was so quiet that it was almost strange.

Wait, my breathing?
