Chapter 830 Life Lock Suppresses the Soul, Lost Soul Seizes the Heart
"For some reason, this world always gives me an indescribable sense of danger."
Turning around and walking back to the cave, Ji Yuenian sat down on the ground on a relatively clean rock, looking at the silver light of the stars and moon in the dark night sky outside the cave, but his mind could not calm down.
Ever since he moved to Xianqi Yinggu, he had been feeling a little restless, as if there were creatures peeping in the dark. This feeling made Ji Yuenian extremely uncomfortable here.
"The Taiyin Goddess originally wanted to send me to the realm of the twins of yin and moon, but I fell into the realm of destiny while traveling through the stars. Is this really a coincidence, or is it a so-called 'accident' pushed by someone behind the scenes? …”
Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of an extremely slender gray-white stream of light. The halo started from the corner of the cave and bloomed into wisps of light, gradually condensing into a gray-white figure dressed in tattered cloth.
The gray-white humanoid had a strange and sinister face, with two strange bloody holes between its eyes, no ears, no nose, and only a slightly normal mouth.
After it appeared, it turned around quietly and looked in the direction of Ji Yuenian.
At this moment, the uncomfortable feeling of voyeurism was so intense that Ji Yuenian breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the gray-white figure.
He is not afraid of being spied on by the strange creatures here. What Ji Yuenian is worried about is that his fall into the fate world may not be a coincidence.
But looking at it now, Ji Yuenian can judge that the reason for his exile in the fate world should only be due to the special characteristics of the creatures in the real world, rather than other man-made reasons.
The gray-white figure came closer and stopped a few feet in front of Ji Yuenian. He stared straight at Ji Yuenian with his empty eyes and said, "You are indeed not a creature from the world of life."
Ji Yuenian raised his head slightly and looked at the silk stream of light surrounding it. He noticed that there was a vague aura of divine seal on it. He frowned slightly and said: "You are not a god, nor are you a ghost. In fact, you are not a god. strangeness."
The gray-white figure sighed, and two pale fires burned in its empty eye sockets, making its lifeless face much more vivid: "Seriously speaking, I should be regarded as the earth god of Xianqi Yinggu Valley."
"The God of Earth..."
Ji Yuenian looked a little strange.
The corners of the gray-white humanoid's mouth twitched and he said, "How about a deal between you and me?"
Ji Yuenian said: "If you have been snooping in the dark, you should know that at this time I am just an ordinary person."
The gray-white figure shook his head, and the hell fire in his eyes trembled more violently: "I bet you will be interested in the content of the transaction."
It waved its arms lightly, and the scattered light flow turned into a light curtain, which showed a scene of a bright golden light crossing the galaxy boundary wall under the influence of seven rainbow lights.
Seeing this scene, Ji Yuenian's pupils shrank, he slowly stood up and said, "Let's talk about it."
The gray-white figure showed a smile that was uglier than crying, and said: "A long time ago, the rules of the heaven and earth here were horribly distorted. Although I am called the God of the Earth, I have actually become a person who can neither survive nor die. Monster, I can tell you where the boundary wall you fell down is, but if you can leave one day, you need to take me away from this terrifying cage."
Ji Yuenian looked at the pale ghost fire in its eyes and said: "This world of life locks is indeed very strange. What is going on?"
The gray-white figure sighed and said: "What you and other creatures outside the world don't know is that this world was originally called the 'World of Floating Immortals'. At that time, all creatures had infinite vitality and possibilities. As long as they cultivated the realm of the sea of gods and the sky, they could
You can step into the realm of eternal life. It was only later that the shackles of fate were recast to suppress all spirits in the world. No one in the three heavens and nine realms could escape the confinement of the life shackles. Over time, the world of floating immortals was called into destiny by you and other outsiders.
Lockbound'."
Ji Yuenian shook his head slightly and said: "Among the many records of the realm of Zhou and Tian, the realm of fate has always been extremely far away from the realm of Zhou and Tian. We don't know the secrets."
The gray-white figure was silent for a while, and said: "The life chain imprisons all the spirits in the world. Although no one can practice, no one in the three heavens and nine realms can live forever, but on the other hand, it has kept the source of the world intact, making such a long time
Since then, there has never been a calamity."
"It would be fine if that was all. But later on, many talented creatures were unwilling to accept the limitation of a hundred years of life, and tried every means to break through the shackles of life. Countless years passed, and they really found an opportunity."
At this point, the land god wrapped in gray light stretched out his palm and once again condensed a screen of light. "These geniuses discovered that whenever a living being reaches the end of its life, its true spirit will disappear into the void in an extremely strange form."
time, disappeared, so they racked their brains to find where those true spirits went."
Above the light curtain, the scene of one of the nine realms in the three days, the sky and the sea, appeared.
The violent waves rolled and roared, and there was endless sea water in all directions. But apart from the sea water, there were countless bright spots of light wandering aimlessly.
The God of Earth pointed at the light curtain in front of him, and the Hellfire in his eyes was beating more and more violently, "Countless time ago, countless immortals in the ancient immortal court held the shackles of fate and enslaved countless sentient beings, and they were able to be overthrown in one day, and this recast
The final shackles of fate themselves are incomplete, how could it not leave any loopholes?!"
"Whenever a living being reaches the end of its hundred-year lifespan, its true spirit will be suppressed to the realm of heaven and sea by the rules of life lock, stripping away all the remaining memories of the soul, and then digging into the heart and bones to turn it into a completely blank pure true spirit.
The spirit will finally be thrown into the already distorted reincarnation, and a brand new life will be born."
"Such a terrible act of depriving all sentient beings is entirely to maintain the integrity of the source of the life realm!"
"Not only does this world not regard us as its people, but it treats us as pigs and sheep that take everything we ask for!"
Its tone was extremely angry, as if it had been greatly wronged.
Ji Yuenian looked at it quietly and said, "Just now you said that the rules of this world have been distorted, where did you start from?"
The Earth God dispersed the light curtain in front of him, glanced at Ji Yuenian, and said: "This is exactly what I want to tell you. Those geniuses found the place where the true spirit stayed, and finally thought of a wonderful method.
It can actually avoid the death disaster of a hundred years of life."
Having said this, the hellfire in its eye sockets jumped twice unusually, "This method is simple to say. You only need to cultivate to the realm of 'Xinxuan' before your lifespan ends, so that the soul can temporarily leave the body and die.
Go out and travel around the world."
Ji Yuenian frowned slightly and asked: "What is the realm of 'Xinxuan'? Also, although I don't know the rules of practice in the life world, if the soul breaks out of the body and there is no true spirit attached, I'm afraid it will still be the same.
It won’t last long.”
The Earth God nodded and said: "The 'Xin Xuan' realm is the realm of mind and spirit created by many geniuses. What is imprisoned by the life chain is the true spirit and soul, but the 'Xin Xuan' realm only cultivates the mind.
Karma, in the end, connects the soul with the mind, and only when the mind is strong can the soul temporarily break out of the body."
After a pause, it continued, "If you want to stay in the world for a long time, you only need to make the soul leave the body within a few breaths before the one-hundred-year life limit arrives. In this way, the true soul is captured by the rules of the life lock, and
The separated soul can seek attachment to the true spirit that has not yet expired, and become a relatively distorted new life."
Ji Yuenian's expression was somewhat solemn and he said: "The true spirit found by the separated soul should not have its own soul on it. Could it be..."
The Earth God nodded and said: "That's it. Find another person in the 'Xinxuan' realm, let him willingly temporarily leave his soul, and then occupy his true spirit. In this way, the soul of this person who has expired will
Then you can enjoy the remaining longevity of this true spirit."
Ji Yuenian said: "Is there really anyone who is willing to give away his true spirit and longevity to others? What's more, if he leaves his true spirit to others, his soul will not survive for long after it leaves the body."
The hell fire in the Earth God's eyes trembled slightly, and he said: "Despite the mental blessing of the Xinxuan Realm, it can take anywhere from a few years to a few days. This wandering soul is bound to die."
At this point, it sighed again, "It is precisely because of this that today's Three Heavens and Nine Realms have already become a terrifying hell for people's hearts. Countless creatures are doing whatever they can to extend their lifespan, and there are intrigues everywhere.
, life and death are everywhere, but at this moment, no one can save this twisted world."
Ji Yuenian looked at it coldly and said, "So, you are not a land god, right?"
The gray-white figure was silent for a moment, and said: "It is indeed a creature from outside the world, and its eyes are indeed like a torch, but the land here has long been transformed into monsters. If I say that I am the land here, I can't be wrong."
Ji Yuenian's eyes moved slightly and he said, "Did the God of Earth really exist here?"
The gray-white human form said: "The so-called land god lived a more miserable life than us. He was deprived of his true soul under the imprisonment of the life chain. Although his soul could not perish in the divine seal, it was reduced to nothing.
A thing without consciousness is not a complete creature, it is just a puppet of the rules."
Ji Yuenian looked at it and said: "So you came here and forcibly occupied its divine seal with your separated soul, but you retained your own sanity and achieved eternal life under the rules of the life lock."
The gray-white figure looked at Ji Yuenian steadily, with a strange smile on his face, and said: "I didn't regret this kind of eternal life until I got it. Under the suppression of the life chain, no matter where the creatures in this world are, It’s like being in hell. What are your names for the creatures outside the world?”
Ji Yuenian was silent for a moment and said: "Chaoyin."
"Chaoyin..."
The gray-white figure murmured softly, "You can call me the 'Lost Soul Taoist'. I have cultivated my soul to the ninth level of the Xinxuan. If you include the true souls and lifespans I have occupied, I have 2,660 souls so far." Over a hundred years old."
Ji Yuenian said in a deep voice: "Brother Lost Soul, you told me many secrets, are you so sure that I can leave this world?"
Lost Soul Taoist glanced at him and said: "The wall of the galaxy is unbreakable. Even before the life lock came, no living being could break the wall of the life world. But the seven rainbow lights around you passed through it as if nothing was there. In the boundary wall realm, I don’t know if you can activate that colorful light, but I remember where you landed. In any case, the galaxy boundary wall there will be much weaker than before. If you can activate it again, By emitting that seven-color rainbow light, it should be able to re-pass through the galaxy wall there and leave the life realm."
Ji Yuenian's face darkened slightly, he shook his head and said, "Those seven rainbow lights are condensed by transcendent beings. With my cultivation, it is impossible to condense such light flow."
Suddenly, he seemed to think of something he had just forgotten, his eyes changed again, his mind trembled slightly, and he said secretly, "Although the seven rainbow lights are condensed by the goddess of the lunar moon, that rainbow light is used to travel to the realm of the twins of yin and moon. With this It is impossible for an object to cross the boundary wall of the galaxy. There is only one reason why I can fall into the world of fate, that is, my true spirit comes from the real world. Thinking about it this way, this seven-color light is not the reason why I crossed the boundary wall of the galaxy at all. .”
Seeing the change in Ji Yuenian's expression, Lost Soul Taoist made some vague guesses and said with a smile: "Brother Chaoyin, if you can take me out of the life world, I will not only take you to the weakest place in the world wall, but also Other things can be traded to you."
When Ji Yuenian thought of this reason, he felt reassured and said: "There is no need for this. What I am worried about is that with the shackles of fate suppressing you, can you really leave the world of fate?"
The Lost Soul Taoist said: "At this time, I hold the divine seal of the land of Xianqi Yinggu, and its soul is half fused with me. In order to maintain immortality, I have been peeling off, merging, and going back and forth. If it comes to me When I leave, I only need to forcefully separate myself from the divine seal, and then I can turn into a free spirit again. Brother Chaoyin, you only need to take me away from the galaxy wall, and the rest will be done. No need to worry about it anymore.”
Ji Yuenian nodded slightly and said: "You are the only one who knows the weakness of the boundary wall. It seems that I can't make this deal if I don't do it."
Lost Soul Taoist shook his head and smiled, and said: "Things like this are all voluntary and cannot be forced. Brother Chaoyin, I wonder when you will be able to activate that seven-color rainbow?"
As he spoke, it was actually dawn outside the cave. The three-round moon gradually disappeared, replaced by a dim gray-blue sky. The cold morning mist filled the cave, making Ji Yuenian feel vaguely.
cold.
Inadvertently tightening the sleeves of his white robe, Ji Yuenian said: "I still need to go to Yungu Imperial City to find a way to reconnect the broken leg. Otherwise, the acupoints will be blocked and the meridians will be blocked. No matter how much I say, it will be useless."
Lost Soul Taoist glanced at Ji Yuenian's left leg, the gray-white hellfire in his eyes trembled a few times, and said: "I think before Taoist Brother Chaoyin fell here, he should have been at least as good as the Lord of Xiaoqian World. Now
It’s really sad to be reduced to such a situation.”
Ji Yueyun said in a young voice: "Although I don't understand the so-called nine realms of 'Xinxuan', it is extremely difficult to practice it. Brother Taoist can cultivate to the ninth realm of 'Xinxuan', but now he lives with monsters."
, which is also admirable.”
The two creatures looked at each other, with a hint of joy in their eyes, and the previous barrier was lessened.
"Young Master, it's already dawn, shall we set off?"
Outside the cave, the hoarse and dull voice of the green-scaled giant snake came in. The Lost Soul Taoist smiled and said: "The wolf beast and the little snake are also easy to make, although your purpose is just to make different attempts on them.
But it also increased their strength dozens of times, almost reaching the sky in one step."
Ji Yuenian shook his head and said: "If you can't break the tribulation, it will be useless in the end."
Taoist Lost Soul flicked his palm, condensed an illusory gray-white token, and said: "Xianqi Yinggu is the place where the divine seal is shrouded in this area. This token is given to you to protect yourself. When you meet a cultivator, you can use it to protect yourself."
It suppresses forcefully."
Ji Yuenian raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Cultivator?"
Lost Soul Taoist smiled and said: "In the Yungu Imperial City, there are two ancestors of the Jiang family who are both cultivators of the second level of 'Xinxuan', called 'cultivation'. These two people have occupied the territory through many means such as coercion and inducement.
The 'Xinxuan' first-level true spirits who have passed through several descendants have been living for hundreds of years. If you simply think that there are only some peak warriors among them, you are afraid that they will die in the Jiang clan inexplicably.
"
Ji Yuenian turned his palm and put away the shimmering token, and asked: "What is the ability of this Xinxuan realm?"
I don't know when, the face of Lost Soul Taoist has been roughly outlined with pale silk threads, and his expression is a bit complicated, saying: "Seriously speaking, every breakthrough in the realm of 'Xinxuan' is accompanied by countless...
Endless blood and sin, what can be obtained in the end is just a slightly longer lifespan, there is nothing special. It is just that its soul can leave the body and attack, which can make ordinary peak warriors sluggish and lose the battle in an instant.
In terms of strength, other than that, he is no different from an ordinary person."
Ji Yuenian's eyes were slightly cold and he said: "For a closed tribe like the Jiang family in Xianqi Yinggu, if no new 'Xinxuan' tribe members are born, wouldn't those two people also die at the end of their lifespan?"
"That's right," Lost Soul Taoist said with a smile, "As far as I know, the Jiang family has withered away over the years, and these two people are frantically cultivating their own power, and their fight has reached the point of being in full swing. One of them is still seven years old.
He has more than ten years of life, and the other person only has more than twenty years of life left. The person with the short life wants to let the other person's soul leave the body and die, while the person with the long life wants to keep his true spirit. Without new life,
Before the birth of 'Xin Xuan', the relationship between these two people could be described as life and death, and they were like fire and water."
When I reached this point, the bright golden sunlight outside the cave shone in, and before I knew it, the sky was filled with morning glow.
The face of the Lost Soul Taoist suddenly became distorted, and the hell fire in his eyes trembled crazily. He turned his head to look at Ji Yuenian and said: "Brother Chaoyin, it's time for me to suffer the torture in the puppet soul of this land monster again."
Ji Yuenian looked at the increasingly transparent gray-white figure in front of him and fell silent.
When it was daylight, the head of the green-scaled giant snake reached the entrance of the cave and said cautiously: "Young master, are you awake?"
Ji Yuenian stretched out his robe sleeves, took the branch next to him and put it in his hand, saying: "Go and get some wild fruits. After I drink some water and eat something, we will leave for the Yungu Imperial City."
The green-scaled giant snake shook its huge head and said, "I'll go right away."
