In a quiet stone city, Wu Gen sat quietly, and from time to time, black sand like mosquitoes and flies would shuttle by, light and erratic, bringing with it the past of those who had passed away here.
Beside him, there were all kinds of strange rocks, like demons escaping from hell, baring their teeth and claws, staring ferociously at Wu Gen, whose body was stained with blood, his body was hunched into a ball, and he was still trembling.
In the whistling and noisy spirit space, black and white figures came one after another and landed around the scattered spirits.
It is said that if a person's soul is in such a state of ruin, this person is definitely dead. But these soul flags of the Ji family have their own magic. Although the souls are broken, they are still connected to each other. As long as people can bear such pain, they will not die on the spot.
These black and white figures shimmered and left in all directions. The already tattered souls were stretched like thin threads and might break at any time.
The light of the human figure swept over these soul threads bit by bit, carefully searching for the differences, trying to find the hidden mark of the evil god.
In the stone city, Wu Gen's hand tightly grasped the stone chicken beside him. The splitting of the soul was already extremely painful, and now it was reduced to thin strands like flesh. The so-called being cut into pieces by a thousand cuts was nothing more than that.
Under the huge pain, Wu Gen howled like a dying old dog, subconsciously cursing the most unpleasant words in the world and cursing the evil god who had brought him such bad luck.
The Qingwei Umbrella can block the evil god's gaze, lest it discover Wu Gen's actions and try any tricks. Under the huge pain, Wu Gen could no longer grasp the handle of the umbrella, so he had to insert it heavily into the rooster-shaped stone beside him.
mind
It was like a stormy sea, and his head seemed to be chopped off over and over again with an axe. Under the huge pain, Wu Gen howled and kept banging his head against the stone beside him, wishing he could knock his head away and pull out the figure inside.
Blood continued to flow down the dead stone. Wu Gen's head was covered in blood and flesh, and the skin was torn open, revealing the pale yellow bones inside.
I don't know how long it took, but Wu Gen, who was in a daze, was almost ready to give up and let Muji withdraw. I really can't stand it anymore, so it doesn't matter if the evil god is here. At worst, I can wait until my cultivation level is high before I can think of other ways. Why do I need to harm myself like this?
Suddenly, a figure stopped, his body glowing brightly. My eyes found a little shadow in an extremely thin thread of soul. The shadow was very light, just like the reflection of a willow leaf in the water. You would miss it if you don't pay attention.
Just when Mu Ji was about to restrain it, the shadow quickly escaped into another cluster of soul threads like a swimming fish.
As a result, the black and white figures became restless, constantly shuttled through the soul thread, chasing the shadow.
The chase lasted for a long time, and it was extremely difficult for the eyes to restrain their impatience. No longer caring about the safety of Wu Gen's soul, he surrounded the shadow as slippery as a loach from top to bottom.
Wu Gen fainted from the pain several times, but was awakened by more severe pain. Finally, the black shadow was pushed to the edge of the soul, and the eyes controlled the figure to confront each other.
After the pain subsided, Wu Gen gasped and pulled out the Black Qi Sword, broke the ring given by Ji Ye with difficulty, and poured the blood on the blade.
Following the method taught by Ji Ye, he secretly attached his mind to the sword, and a long sword slowly appeared in the soul space, with the tip pointing directly at the looming shadow.
This is the power of Heiqi Sword,
It can cut off souls. With one sword pass, the person will appear to be unharmed, but in fact the soul has been destroyed. However, Wu Gen didn't dare to thrust the sword down without permission. If he missed the blow and cut his soul in half, he wouldn't have to go out.
Feeling the threat brought by the Black Qi Sword, the shadow became restless again, desperately trying to escape from the soul, trying to escape from the pursuit of the eyes.
The two fought fiercely in the soul space, but Wu Gen suffered a lot. Under the huge pain, Wu Gen waved the Heiqi sword in his hand randomly.
With a roar, Wu Gen cut a large hole in the rooster-shaped stone next to him with his sword, and the tall stone fell to one side.
The dust and smoke gradually dispersed, and Wu Gen and Mo Zhibi stood there blankly, with the same expressions on their faces still remaining, like stone statues.
Behind the rooster-shaped stone, there is a lotus-shaped stone platform. On the stone platform, there is a lamp
Bronze oil lamp with simple shape. The green lantern is speechless, the blue flame is like a blue gem, hanging motionless on the wick.
This lamp has been standing here for an unknown amount of time. Time seems to have covered the lamp with layers of dust. At first glance, the vast and distant atmosphere rushes towards your face, as if you are seeing the passage of time, the years are flying, and the endless time is flowing here.
Wu Gen slowly rolled his eyes, thinking extremely hard about what he was doing here. Being in the light, not only the body becomes stiff, but also the thinking becomes slow, as if the long river of time has suddenly slowed down.
In the mind, the shadows that came and went suddenly became silent, and gradually revealed their true nature. It was an eye, one without the white of the eye, as black as ink,
It's like eyes that can swallow everything. This is the mark left by the evil god in Wu Gen's mind. With this mark, the evil god can not only "see" the growth of the puppets in his hands, but also the fruits of their growth will be silently shared by him.
Wu Gen is about to face a breakthrough. After breaking through, both his soul and body will have a great improvement. He is stingy and doesn't want others to get the benefits of breaking through. Besides, no one should be allowed to snore on the side of the bed. With such a foreign object staring at him all the time, anyone would feel uncomfortable.
Think about it when you enter the bridal chamber with your beloved wife, when you hide in the dark room and count money, when a few best friends secretly discuss how to cheat on someone, the presence of such an external object would be as uncomfortable as eating a fly.
Although there is still death energy in his body and tenants such as the Heart of Light, they are dead things after all, and they will not make Wu Gen feel like something is stuck in his throat or like a light is stuck on his back. Therefore, after spending so much effort and suffering so much, Wu Gen just wanted to drive this evil god out of his soul.
But the current dilemma is that the Eye of the Evil God has appeared, and the Black Qi Sword has also transformed in the Soul Space, but Wu Gen is unable to urge the sword to pierce the eye at this time. It is also very difficult for him to think now, not to mention Control the Black Qi Sword.
In the midst of anxiety, the care on his wrist suddenly moved slightly. In the soul space, a figure slowly walked from a distance. Her body gradually changed, and she could vaguely tell that she was a woman.
The woman came to the Heiqi Sword, took the sword into her hand like picking a leaf, and swayed her body to the side of the Eye of the Evil God.
The sword pierced the black eye, a sigh came from the noisy soul space, and the eyes became torn apart.
female
With a gentle flick of the executioner's hand, a soft white light flashed through, and the fragments of the eye gradually turned invisible.
Wu Gen suddenly felt relaxed, as if the tumor on his body had suddenly been removed, and he felt extremely relaxed. The soul fire was rippling again, and Wu Gen was a little anxious. He had difficulty moving at this time. If he was trapped here for a long time, the soul sand would be worn away by the soul sand even if he did not starve to death.
As if sensing Wu Gen's thoughts, the woman's body changed and turned into gauze-like strips of light, covering her soul.
With this layer of light, Wu Gen finally recovered his thinking, quickly took the Qingwei umbrella to block the light of the oil lamp, and dragged Mu Ji and Mo Zhibi away from the oil lamp.
The two of them and the beast finally regained their freedom. Although the ghost wind is still there and the soul sand is still attacking their minds, they can finally leave this place.
Despite the discomfort in their souls, Wu Gen and others retreated to the forest of flags just now, where Ji Xie was waiting.
Seeing that Wu Gen and others were fine, they quickly exited the underground palace.
The bronze door slowly closed again, and calm returned to the surrounding area. Several people were sitting on the ground, their faces pale, and their bodies were shaking as if they didn't belong to them. This was a symptom of extreme mental fatigue.
Someone from Jin's army sent a soul-reaming elixir and asked several people to take it, and then they felt better.
Wu Gen closed his eyes slightly, and the light band of his soul had disappeared. Only then did he realize that it was Qian Nian who summoned Wu Yi, who then invested a bit of his soul power here, cut off the evil god's eye, and sent himself out of the stone city.
Wu Yi left a piece of consciousness in Wu Gen's soul, saying that when he was at Fuyu Mountain, Wu Yong had actually seen the mark of the evil god, but with this mark still there, he would not be able to find the evil god again.
It was easier, so I didn't take action.
But since Wu Gen is determined to remove the mark of the evil god, Wu Yi will not pay attention to Wu Yi.
With Yong's thoughts in mind, he showed up to help.
In the Xiangtang, Ji Xie looked at Wu Gen who was being bandaged with a complicated expression. After a while, he said, "Captain, I saw a soul lantern in the stone city."
Wu Gen nodded, "Yes, this lamp is quite overbearing. I almost got detained here and couldn't get out."
"Back then, the third-generation ancestor was trapped for ten days and almost starved to death inside. I didn't expect that the governor could escape so quickly. He is really gifted." Ji Xie looked at Wu Gen with emotion on his face and looked at Wu Gen with a very different look. , "If the Governor can enter the underground palace a few more times, I'm afraid it will be of great benefit to his future practice."
Wu Gen sighed, how could he have been cultivating here for such a long time? The war in Bailing Province has ended this time, and Wuwei's military needs will have to settle for a period of time to properly manage Liangzhe Mountain.
After leaving Xiangtang, Ji Ye and Murong Yuqiang, who had received the news, were already waiting here. Seeing Wu Gen's somewhat depressed expression, they couldn't help but asked with concern: "How is it?"
"Everything went well." Wu Gen handed the Black Qi Sword back to Ji Ye, and the two slowly walked along the stone road, while the others spontaneously moved away.
"I'm going to build a navy." Wu Gen lowered his head, his steps still a little wandering. Although the ghost wind can refine the soul, this time it was a bit too violent.
Ji Ye let out a long sigh and heard what Wu Gen meant. He looked at his clothes and said sadly, "You are finally leaving, but it's a pity that I have to be chained here. Although the Fearless Army is at Heng Mengang has a foothold, but you still have to be careful with Huajia, you will eat such a large piece of meat.
, some people will be dissatisfied. "
"I know, so in the future, the main force of the Fearless Army will still stay in Liangzhe Mountain." Wu Gen stopped, turned to look behind him, and lowered his voice, "Murong Yuqiang is finally younger. , it will get better if you grind it a bit."
"This time she will stay in Zhaoqin City for a while, not only to keep vigil according to the clan's rules, but also to reflect on her past." Ji Ye sighed slightly.
"I'm leaving." Wu Gen hesitated for a moment and patted Ji Ye's shoulder gently. "While there are few people around, let's pat the Emperor's dragon aura again and imbue him with nobility. From now on, I'm afraid it won't be like this. opportunity."
"I won't leave until a few days' rest."
"No, there are many things going on in the mountain, so I have to go back early." Wu Gen stopped, looked at Ji Ye and smiled slightly, "Take care."
"Take care." Ji Ye suddenly felt a little melancholy. Maybe in the future, the days when we can be so close as brothers will never come again.
Whether it is Wu Gen or he, after reaching a certain status, they will eventually find that the higher they climb, the farther away they are from each other.
The shuttle rose into the sky, Wu Gen looked at the figure on the ground, waved gently and said goodbye.
