Looking at the familiar face of the old man, Mao Qi felt a little more friendly. But for the safety of the Stone Forest Formation, Mao Qi still asked a few more questions.
The old man told Mao Qi that he was originally a barrier set up by Hu You. When Hu You died, he attached his spiritual consciousness to the barrier, so he was able to condense his spiritual consciousness. The shackles on his hands and feet were the Stone Forest Formation and
The connection between the barriers, because Hu You was worried that the barrier would not be able to contact the spiritual energy underground, so he set up a chain of heaven and earth, but he did not expect that it would become a shackles in the end.
"Little friend Mao Qi, now that the aura of the other world has been purified, I hope you can help me unlock this shackles and give me freedom." After explaining, the old man sincerely asked Mao Qi to unlock the door again.
Although he knew that releasing the shackles was equivalent to breaking the barrier, Mao Qi still nodded.
"Senior, do you know how to unlock the shackles?" When encountering this situation for the first time, Mao Qi didn't know where to start.
"This lock cannot be opened." As soon as Mao Qi finished speaking, Gu Ji, led by Thunder God, rushed over immediately. Seeing that Mao Qi was about to unlock the shackles, he quickly persuaded him.
Seeing Gu Ji's anxious and hurried look, Mao Qi hesitated for a moment.
"Little friend Mao Qi, his mission is to protect the barrier and the safety of the ancient mountain tribe. Why does he want to be free? And once the lock is opened, the barrier is really broken." Although Gu Ji's words were strong and overbearing and impersonal, they were nonetheless
There are several reasons.
"Elder Gu Ji, Elder Lei Shen Dao, you are all well." Although it was not a place to reminisce about old times, Yu Xing still said hello in surprise.
Who said that the trip to the Stone Forest Formation was fruitless? Now, the fact that five of the six elders of the Gushan Clan have gathered together is the biggest gain.
After the five people briefly reminisced about old times, Yu Zhi told Gu Ji that the alien atmosphere under the stone forest formation had been purified, and the barrier had completed its mission. Now that spiritual consciousness had been condensed, it was reasonable to give him freedom.
Yu Zhi said something and made Gu Ji fall silent. Seeing that Gu Ji did not continue to object, the old man quickly expressed that he hoped to practice on his own and did not want to be a parasite all his life. He also promised that even if he gained freedom, he would not leave the Gushan tribe.
The final decision fell once again to Mao Qi. After much thought, he decided to open the lock.
"Senior, this lock itself is condensed by spiritual consciousness. If you want to open it, you need to use the power of spiritual consciousness. If you have offended me, I hope you will forgive me." What Mao Qi said was to use spiritual consciousness to enter the shackles, and
The shackles and the old man are originally one, so it is possible for spiritual consciousness to enter the old man's body. It is taboo to use spiritual consciousness to spy on others, so you need to make it clear in advance.
Seeing the old man, he nodded without hesitation. Mao Qi entered the Qi-training state, allowing Ling Ying to be ready to activate the Dragon Soul Shield at any time, and then slowly spread the power of spiritual consciousness to the old man's shackles.
"Mao Qi, do you want your life? You still dare to practice now." Bai Su was shocked. He didn't pay attention before, but now he found that Mao Qi was still in the state of practice. He couldn't help but reminded him in surprise. The most important thing is to avoid disturbing people while practicing.
From Su's point of view, Mao Qi's behavior is simply asking for death.
"Senior Bai Su, I'm afraid I won't have enough energy in the middle of the journey and I'll miss something important. It's okay." Mao Qi smiled at Bai Su and said.
Seeing that Mao Qi was still absorbing spiritual energy when he spoke, everyone present was shocked. This heaven-defying ability changed their understanding of the taboos of cultivation.
"I don't know if you have heard of it, but there is a state where you can do it." Yu Zhi said in a low voice.
"You mean the realm of the soul. It's impossible. The realm of the soul itself is a state of cultivation, and even if you can speak, it is a dialogue between spiritual consciousness." Bai Su suddenly remembered the state of cultivation that the master once described, but then he thought
Denied.
Although Thunder God said nothing, he could better understand what Gu Ji said and why he sighed.
The five elders of the Gushan tribe stepped aside and formed a five-element formation with tacit understanding to prevent interruption. Bai Su chose to stay, as she was not willing to let Mao Qi face the old man alone.
The moment Mao Qi's spiritual consciousness entered the shackles, a powerful spiritual power was directly imprinted into Mao Qi's spiritual consciousness.
Without enough time to react, Mao Qi's spiritual consciousness entered a mysterious space. The space was shrouded in a gray atmosphere, which seemed very depressing; a middle-aged man was sitting not far away, but his appearance could not be clearly seen.
"You're finally here." Just when Mao Qi was about to step forward, the middle-aged man suddenly said.
Seeing the other party suddenly speaking, Mao Qi froze on the spot, trying to gather his spiritual consciousness, but found that he could not use the realm energy.
"Who are you?" Mao Qi asked tentatively.
"Being able to enter the spiritual consciousness space I left behind means that your spiritual consciousness realm has met the requirements. In fact, the shackles do not exist. They are just traces of the power of my spiritual consciousness being worn away by time. As long as you can help me restore my spiritual consciousness.
With strength, the shackles will be lifted naturally."
The middle-aged man's words made Mao Qi confused, and this middle-aged man made Mao Qi feel no sense of intimacy, so he did not ask in a hurry, but carefully looked at the space.
The middle-aged man did not continue to speak and fell silent.
Mao Qi discovered that this space was not large, and there was nothing else in it except the gray aura; but he could not walk within fifty steps of the middle-aged man, nor could he leave this space.
Mao Qi found a seat farthest away from the middle-aged man and sat down, then closed his eyes and thought about a solution to the problem.
"It seems that the problem is these gray auras, but if you can't sense the realm energy, you can't use the power of spiritual consciousness. If an unexpected situation does occur, it will be difficult to deal with it."
Thinking of this, Mao Qi sensed his own situation and felt that there were two other ways to try. One was to use spiritual consciousness pink and purple fire, and the other was to use Apocalypse Heart Determination. After weighing the pros and cons, he decided to try Apocalypse Heart Determination first.
try.
This gray aura is the product of the failure of spiritual consciousness. It cannot be dissipated because the space is small and closed, and it accumulates over the years.
When the Apocalypse Heart Technique is activated, what Mao Qi absorbs is not the spiritual energy, but the malfunctioning spiritual consciousness. As for the consequences, it is not yet known.
As Apocalypse's determination moved, the gray aura decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye, indicating that this move was indeed effective. However, after incorporating the gray aura, Mao Qi's consciousness gradually became blurred.
In the stone forest formation, he saw the aura of death suddenly appearing on Mao Qi's forehead, and more and more of it gathered, and his body was aging rapidly. Although the situation was very similar to that in Tianyin Mountain, Bai Su still felt worried.
I feel that there is no need for Mao Qi to work so hard for this old man.
"What if I can't recover? I will become a young old man. How come I always like to mess with these things?"
