The other party let out a faint laugh and said:

"That's alright. I've been trapped here for hundreds of thousands of years, and I don't even have anyone to talk to. I've been dying of loneliness for a long time. Talking to a little girl like you is nothing."

Yu Kuan couldn't help but feel a little chilled. Having been trapped here for hundreds of thousands of years without anyone to talk to, it would be so lonely that he died.

I shudder just thinking about it.

Moreover, how can a wisp of remnant soul survive for so long? Even ghosts and monsters have long since disappeared.

Remnant Soul said: "This is my cave, and I am Nangong Lingyi!"

She did not explain who Nangong Lingyi was, she only said that she was Nangong Lingyi.

"I failed to ascend through the tribulation and fell under the thunder tribulation. Although I fell, I was lucky enough to retain a trace of my soul because of my perfect cultivation as an Earth Immortal."

"This remnant soul of the old body lives on the Five Elements Daoxuan. Relying on the function of the Five Elements Daoxuan, it retains consciousness and does not really fall. If there were no Five Elements Daoxuan, the old body would have disappeared long ago."

Yu Yan was shocked when he heard this.

Five Elements Daoxuan? What kind of celestial grass is this? It can actually make a residual soul survive for hundreds of thousands of years?

A person who practices Taoism, even if he is at the highest level, will definitely die when his time comes. Once the physical body dies, the soul will eventually be annihilated without any support.

But it doesn't mean that the soul will definitely be annihilated.

If there is some kind of treasure that can make the soul inhabit, it can also live in a special form, or turn into a ghost.

However, ten thousand years is usually very difficult, and it is simply unheard of to keep a soul immortal for hundreds of thousands of years.

There must be some heaven-defying means or a heaven-defying treasure.

Unexpectedly, the fairy grass called Five Elements Daoxuan in front of me turned out to be such a treasure.

A piece of grass can keep a remnant soul alive for tens of thousands of years. This shows the value of this grass.

"What's your purpose in telling me this?" Yu Yan asked. The other party definitely said this not just because he wanted to talk.

Nangong Lingyi sneered: "You are very smart, you can barely do me a favor."

Yu Kuan was not surprised and said: "What's the deal? Let me tell you, I am the most generous person. As long as it is beneficial to something, I will usually do it reluctantly and will not refuse."

Nangong Lingyi snorted coldly and said: "I'm too lazy to talk about useless things. Now I don't even have the soul, it's just a wisp of residual soul. I'm not willing to take my body and be reborn unless I have to."

Yu Yan sneered at Nangong Lingyi's words. He didn't want to take over his body and be reborn? Are you lying?

She was sure that if she had met Wuxing Daoxuan just now, Nangong Lingyi would definitely seize her body. But now that she has no chance to seize her body, she expressed her unwillingness to seize her body.

However, Yu Yan was too lazy to expose the other party. She wanted to know what the other party was going to say next.

Nangong Lingyi's voice continued: "I urgently need to reshape my body now. Even if I can't, I have to turn to the ghost realm. At least I can move freely and leave this grass."

"To perfect the physical body, you need body shaping treasures, and to transform into a ghost realm, you also need a special place."

"So, I hope you can help me with this."

Yu Yan understood. The other party first wanted to reshape his body, and the second was to transform into a ghost.

As long as you can move freely and leave the place where the soul of Five Elements Daoxuan lives, it will be fine.

Yu Yan thought for a while and said, "If I can help you fulfill your wish, what's the benefit?"

Nangong Lingyi said: "The biggest benefit is, of course, this Five Elements Daoxuan!"

"Five Elements Daoxuan is an immortal grass. If you eat this grass, your soul power will be ten times stronger!"

"Second, it will be easier for you to understand the secrets of the Five Elements, master the rules of the Five Elements, and realize the magical powers of the Five Elements!"

"Third, even if you die, it's easier to leave a trace of your soul behind."

"Fifth, your physical strength will also increase tenfold!"

"This is simply a good thing that monks dream of, and its value is immeasurable. Unfortunately, I don't have a physical body, so I can't swallow this grass at all."

However, Yu Kuang did not show the slightest hint of laughter. Instead, he shook his little head and said, "What will happen if I eat a piece of fairy grass? I'll probably explode and die, right? I'm young, and you were deceived."

Nangong Lingyi felt that this little girl was difficult to deal with, so he patiently explained:

"Of course Five Elements Daoxuan is not something you can eat casually. You must have strong Taoist digestion capabilities. If you are not talented enough and your strength is too low, your body will turn into nothingness after eating it, and you will not be able to die again."

"But from my perspective, your cultivation aptitude must be excellent, and your understanding will definitely not be bad. You may be able to eat these Five Elements Daoxuan."

"However, you can't get the Five Elements Dao Hemerocallis without my consent. Although I have no strength and cultivation, no one can stop me from destroying this plant."

Yu Yan believed what she said. Nangong Lingyi was just a remnant soul now. No matter how powerful she was back then, she was still no match for him. But it was very easy to prevent him from getting the Five Elements Dao Grass.

Nangong Lingyi has lived in Wuxing Daoxuan for tens of thousands of years and has become one with the grass spirit. If she wants to destroy Wuxing Daoxuan, it may be just a thought.

Nangong Lingyi continued: "As long as you make a true vow to help me shape my body or help me transform into a ghost, I will give you the Five Elements Daoxuan."

For her, nothing is as important as regaining her freedom. Living in Wuxing Daoxuan, although she can continue to retain her consciousness, she cannot leave.

This Five Elements Daoxuan plant is both her shelter and her prison. Since there is no way to take away this cunning little girl, the only option is to make a deal.

She could see that this little girl had an extraordinary background, and if she was willing to help, she could hope to regain her freedom.

After so many years of hard work waiting for someone, she could never give up.

Yu Yan thought for a while and finally decided to agree to Nangong Lingyi's proposal.

The Five Elements Daoxuan is too precious, and the value of this kind of fairy grass is simply inestimable.

She had to get it.

In addition, since Nangong Lingyi is an ancient soul, he must know many important events in ancient times, which is a living treasure.

I want to use her to slowly uncover ancient events.

Fortunately, this is also what Jiang Yao is interested in.

"Okay, I agree. However, you must slowly tell me the things you know in ancient times. Of course, I will also tell you the things in the real world today."

"Also, as long as you sincerely give me the Five Elements Daoxuan, I will sincerely help you reshape your body or transform into a ghost. However, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to help you do it..."

Although Yu Kuang agreed to the deal, he did not fulfill his promise.

Nangong Lingyi said: "I know you won't refuse. Don't worry, I was once titled Lady Peony, held the official position of Shangshu Ling, and was a first-class minister beside Her Majesty the Queen. I will definitely keep my word."

Queen?

Yu Yan's heart moved and she immediately asked: "Which dynasty and which generation is the queen?"

"Which dynasty and generation? Of course it's the Great Zhou Dynasty! Well, it can also be regarded as the Great Tang Dynasty. Why do you ask? Don't tell me, I don't know Emperor Zhao Tianzhen! No matter how much time passes, even if the Tang Dynasty is restored, there will be no history books

Emperor Zhao Tian will be forgotten."

Yu Kuan shook his head: "I really don't know. Not only me, but everyone in the outside world doesn't know that there is also an Empress Zhaotian. As for the history books, where are there any history books?"

"How is it possible? I don't believe it!" Nangong Lingyi's voice was a little trembling, "Now, has the dynasty changed outside? Who is the emperor?"

Yu Kuan nodded with a strange expression: "You guessed this right, the dynasty has changed a long time ago. However, there is no emperor now..."

The little girl briefly talked about the external affairs.

"The world has become a barbarian country without the imperial court, and it is impossible to ascend..." Nangong Lingyi said in disbelief.

"What happened next? Who destroyed the Tang Dynasty, poisoned the real world, and destroyed history books and education?"

She remembered that when her ascension failed, the Tang Dynasty had only been established for tens of thousands of years. The dynasty's fortunes were flourishing and it was far from being destroyed.

Unexpectedly, such a powerful Tang Dynasty finally perished.

Yu Kuan shook his head: "I don't know these either. Your time is too early, and my time is too late, so I don't even know."

Nangong Lingyi was silent for a long time, and his voice suddenly became a little weird: "Why do I feel that your appearance and aura are a bit like Her Majesty the Queen..."

At this point, she immediately stopped talking and said no more.

Yu Yan didn't ask. It won't be too late to find out these ancient things slowly.

The solution now is to seize the time to find something.

"Mrs. Peony, did you have any other treasures back then?" Yu Kuan said, "You can't take them away anyway, so why not give them all to the younger generation, so that the younger generation can increase their strength and help the madam realize her wish as soon as possible."

Nangong Lingyi was also helpless and could only say: "I have a request. When I recover my physical body or turn into a ghost, I must get back three treasures."

Yu Kuan smiled and said, "Then it depends on how many treasures you have."

Nangong Lingyi could not bargain, so he could only agree.

"Okay, you can take the oath of truth..."

The mantra oath is to carve the oath into the spiritual platform. Once the oath is violated, it may damage the Taoist heart, or it may not cause any harm.

In fact, the binding force is very limited.

The key is to see whether there is a bottom line in character.

Of course Nangong Lingyi would not really believe Yu Yan, but the problem was that she had no choice.

A bet is a must.

After hundreds of thousands of years, she had had enough.

"Okay, I swear..."
To be continued...
