Ao Xun looked at Zhang Yan rising from the bottom of the sea. He didn't feel anything special in his heart, but he felt that Zhang Yan's expression seemed a bit nervous.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, how is the situation below?"
"I couldn't get to the island. There is indeed another level of ban you mentioned over there. It feels very dangerous to me and I dare not approach it at all."
"Hey, I'll just say it. Did you find anything else?"
"Yes." Zhang Yan said, raising his hand, and the other "cocoon" that had not yet been dissolved opened also opened, revealing a black and red flag that was as tall as a person.
"This is... the Six Soul Flag?!" Ao Xun seemed to have seen something terrible, his huge body shrank suddenly, and he quickly retreated a hundred feet away. It looked like he was quite frightened.
"Do you know him?" Zhang Yan was just giving it a try, but he didn't expect that Ao Xun actually knew him.
"Zhang Daoyou! Put it away quickly, this thing is deadly!" Ao Xun was trembling and did not dare to come near, and yelled at Zhang Yan to put things away quickly. It seems that I won't come over until you put it away.
Hearing this, Zhang Yan didn't think much. He picked up the Six Soul Flag and whispered, "Let it go for now. We'll talk about it later." He seemed to be communicating with the spirit of the Six Soul Flag. Then he successfully put it into the storage bag.
"Okay, come here and talk." Zhang Yan put away his storage bag and waved to Ao Xun in the distance. The other party hesitated for a moment before slowly coming back.
Ao Xun's big eyes flashed with anxiety, always looking at Zhang Yan's waist, for fear of taking out the Six Soul Flag again. Looks like a frightened little rabbit. This made Zhang Yan very surprised and curious.
"Why are you so afraid of it? And how are you sure that it is the Six Soul Banner and not an imitation?"
"If most of your tribe is wiped out by this thing, you are also afraid of it. I will never forget its appearance and its unique fluctuation. But you can actually get it? I remember it Aren’t they taken away by the saints who taught and expounded the teachings?”
Zhang Yan didn't need to hide it, so he directly told how he got the Six Soul Banner. He wanted to see what different information Ao Xun had about the Six Soul Banner.
"I just said that this flag is special. It is actually a six-soul flag! What else do you know?"
Ao Xun was worried and a little envious, and said: "Zhang Dao is very friendly, and he can take the saint's things like the Six Soul Banner at will. I think fellow Taoists should know the meaning of it, right?"
Let’s talk about the six soul flags. What I don't know is actually much. Most of them focus on the fact that it can sway the souls of the world, shake it, or shatter it, and it can even involve and mix it..."

As an aborigine of Ao Island, Ao Xun's understanding of the Six Soul Banner only limited to the few times his tribe members were punished by it. He even said that he almost died under the Six Soul Banner when he was young, but he survived after being rescued.
"Oh? Is there anyone who can save your life under the Six Soul Flag? Who is so proud?" This is not a big deal, but on Ao Island, think about who the owner of the Six Soul Flag is. Zhang Yan was really curious that Ao Xun could survive.
"The Saint Yuanshi who came to Ao Island as a guest saved me."
Zhang Yan was inexplicably moved when he heard this, but for a moment he didn't know why he felt this way. He could only continue the topic and asked: "You are lucky. But did you know that anything special happened when the Human Sect and the Chan Sect set up a ban on the sea area outside the island? Otherwise, how could these six soul flags fall? On the bottom of the island?"
"This... I have never heard of anything strange about this. Because at that time, the disciples of the Renjiao and Chanjiao first cleared out all the Ao people in that sea area, and then warned not to cross the red line of the ban. Then they guarded Start building a sealing circle outside until the end."
"Kick you out? They don't know what they're doing inside, is that what you mean?"
"Well...it's not that something was done inside, but that the confinement itself was built from the outside. After our Ao people came out, no one went in again. The same is true for the disciples of the Human Religion and the Chan Religion. I Do you understand what you are saying, Daoyou Zhang?" Ao Xun said very firmly while recalling. Because at that time, he was curious about the ban and worried that such a large-scale ban would affect the living environment of Ao Island waters, so he was deeply impressed.
"Huh? The ban was completed outside?" Zhang Yan also didn't expect Ao Xun to say unexpected words on such a matter. It stands to reason that such a large-scale and powerful ban can only be achieved if a multi-layered composite array is built together with the origin of space. What does it mean to only comb the outside without going over and over to comb the inside?
It’s not that it can’t be arranged outside, but it will be very difficult. It is equivalent to making one thing ten times more difficult out of thin air. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for anyone to do such laborious and time-consuming things, right?
Everything happened for a reason! Although Ao Xun did not get any more information about the Six Soul Flags, it seems that there must have been something mysterious happening when the peripheral ban was set up. Otherwise, wouldn't it be possible to suddenly add peripheral bans, and it would be impossible to make such a weird move during the deployment?
"What?" Ao Xun asked when he saw Zhang Yan was silent for a long time as he was deep in thought.
"Oh, nothing."
"Zhang Daoyou, are you ready to leave now?"
"Yeah. I'm leaving. There are a lot of things going on outside, so I don't dare to delay any longer."
"Then... Fellow Taoist, please be careful. I will walk around here again and think about the past. If I find anything, I will tell you next time." Ao Xun hesitated, and finally I could only say a few polite words that were innocuous. It actually wanted to ask Zhang Yan if he could find a way to solve the situation in the sea area, and if there was a way to move this sea area, or part of the sea area, so that it could leave with it. But I can’t ask this question. Because of the appearance of the Six Soul Flag, Ao Xun did not dare to speak casually.
Zhang Yan smiled, how could Ao Xun's hesitant words be hidden from him? It's just that some things really shouldn't be said right now. He could only do it silently, and he hadn't figured out how to do it yet.
"See you later, Ao Xun, take care!"
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, take care!"
Leaving the Chaos Realm is as easy as the last time. And after going out, Zhang Yan took out the star map to compare and found that he was in a corner of the Chaos Sect's unavoidable unknown territory. Fortunately, we are in an inaccessible place, so we don't have to worry about being discovered.
At the same time, he moved a short distance and tried repeatedly. He found that there were no traces of the tracking method that had forced him to almost fall into despair before, so he moved back to the wilderness with confidence.
The moment he stepped into the wilderness, the span and passage of time suddenly fell into Zhang Yan's consciousness, and the complete time scale was established again this time.
"It's been another seven hundred years in a flash. There are no years of cultivation, and I don't know what happened..."
