Chapter 144 Soul Fusion Plus One
The two Golden Immortal messengers did not bother with him for too long.
They left a stern warning and ordered the "new contact" to stabilize the situation as quickly as possible, then disappeared like a stream of light, apparently anxious to return to report.
The only ones left were Xiaobai, Jinggan, and those immortals whose memories had been erased and who were looking around in confusion.
Jing Gan waved his hand and set up a simple soothing formation to temporarily calm these immortals.
"It's not advisable to stay here for long." He looked at Xiaobai with a serious expression.
Xiaobai nodded, his face tense: "Well, let's go find Doctor Mu first."
The two of them flashed and quickly left this troubled place.
After hurriedly meeting up with Doctor Mu, Xiaobai briefly explained the situation.
"The Second Heaven... Extraterritorial Cracks... Sacrifice..." Doctor Mu frowned upon hearing this, "These hypocrites really have bad intentions."
Xiaobai took out the blood-stained communication card he got from the Red-eyed Immortal and tried to inject a trace of immortal energy into it.
The communication card flickered, and a cold and arrogant voice came out of it, with an unquestionable tone of command:
"The guide is dead? Trash."
"Listen, 'Selections' is on hold for three months."
"In three months, the selection will be restarted. At that time, no matter what method is used, whether it is deception or kidnapping, all the 'suitable' sacrifices that can be found must be sent here."
"The number must be enough to fill the gap this time, otherwise, you know the consequences."
The voice was full of menace and an inexplicable urgency.
Communication interrupted.
Xiaobai held the communication card in his hand, exerting a little force, and his knuckles turned white.
Jing Gan's eyes were cold: "Stop for three months, and then increase the dosage? It seems that they are really anxious."
Xiaobai looked up, a glimmer of understanding flashed in his eyes: "They may want to completely close the path to the Second Heaven, or use these sacrifices to complete a more sinister ritual."
"Not only do we wade into this muddy water, we also make it even muddier." Xiaobai's lips curled up in a sneer that didn't match his age.
"The most urgent task is to find your soul fragments." Jing Gan said in a deep voice, "Only by increasing your strength can you cope with the next changes."
Xiao Bai nodded: "Well, let's go to the forbidden space of the first heaven and take a look. The Red-eyed Immortal mentioned the cracks, maybe there will be clues there."
The two of them did not delay any longer, bid farewell to Doctor Mu, and turned into streams of light, heading straight for the legendary forbidden space in the first heaven.
It is an area with disordered energy and extremely unstable space. Ordinary immortals who approach it may be sucked into the turbulence of space.
However, Xiaobai and Jinggan were able to walk smoothly.
The deeper you go, the more severe the space distortion becomes.
"Stop." Jing Gan suddenly pressed Xiaobai's shoulder.
"What's wrong, Brother Jinggan?" Xiaobai asked puzzled.
Jing Gan closed his eyes, carefully sensed for a moment, and suddenly opened them: "There is a space restriction in front... It is very ancient and very hidden."
What’s more…
"There is a wave of the same origin in the space behind the restriction." Jing Gan's voice was filled with a hint of excitement that was barely noticeable. "It's the breath of the dragon clan! Although it's weak, it's close to my origin."
The two looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
"Could it be..." Xiaobai's heart beat faster.
They walked up to the restriction, which was an almost transparent energy barrier that exuded an ancient aura.
Jing Gan raised his hand, ready to break it by force.
Xiaobai also stretched out his little hand at the same time and mobilized the spiritual power in his body.
There was no earth-shattering noise, nor any violent energy collision.
The moment the two people's spiritual power touched the restriction, the ancient barrier was like a lock that encountered a key, silently melting away to form an entrance that was only wide enough for two people to pass through.
"Huh?" Xiaobai blinked, "So easy?"
Jing Gan was also a little surprised, but then he was relieved: "Perhaps, this restriction is related to you and me."
They stepped into it without hesitation.
What greeted me was a soft white light, exuding a warm and friendly atmosphere.
The white light seemed to have spirituality. The moment they entered, it floated towards the depths of the space.
"Chase."
The two followed closely behind, shuttling through the bizarre turbulence of space.
Finally, the white light stopped in front of a pile of ruins.
This place looks like an altar that has been abandoned for countless years. The stone pillars are dilapidated and the ground is covered with blurred ancient runes. Only a high platform in the center can vaguely see the outline of its past.
"Observatory?" Xiaobai looked at the remaining traces of star tracks on the platform, feeling a little uncertain.
Jing Gan shook his head, his expression solemn: "No, the aura here... is the remains of the ancient Demon Sealing Platform."
The ball of white light floated lightly to the center of the platform and merged into the dim star track.
Xiaobai looked at the star trails and felt an inexplicable movement in his heart, as if he knew what to do naturally.
She walked forward, stretched out her little hand, and gently brushed across the star track in a mysterious trajectory.
Snap!
The star track rotated, the dusty mechanism was triggered, and the center of the platform slowly cracked, revealing a golden ball of light bound by countless chains (star chains) shining with starlight.
The ball of light exuded a pure, warm and reassuring aura, which was exactly the part that Xiaobai was missing - the emotional soul!
"Found it." A look of joy flashed in Jing Gan's eyes.
The ball of white light that had led the way earlier was now gently surrounding the ball of golden light, and finally completely blending into it.
Xiaobai looked at the golden ball of light, and an indescribable sense of intimacy surged in his heart, as if it was a part of his body that he had been separated from for too long and was finally reunited with.
She stepped forward involuntarily, stretched out her little hand, and gently touched the golden ball of light locked by the star chain.
boom!
The moment the ball of light touched Xiaobai's fingertips, it turned into a stream of light and instantly flowed into her brows.
At the same time, a huge and unfamiliar torrent of memories rushed into her sea of consciousness.
The memory was not complete, just some fragmented images and information.
The clearest one is a piece of incomplete map fragment, which vaguely shows the outline of a certain area in the Second Heaven.
There were four more words that were like prophecies, deeply engraved in her mind:
"The Azure Dragon holds the moon in its mouth, suppressing the soul of the East."
"The white tiger devours the sun, locking up the spirit of the west."
"The Vermillion Bird bathes in fire, guarding the spirit of the South."
"Xuanwu carries the stele, and determines the thoughts of the north."
The Four Sealed Places! The place where the rest of her soul fragments were hidden.
Xiaobai suddenly opened his eyes and felt a surge of spiritual power surging from his body, as if it was about to break through some shackles.
She quickly practiced her skills to suppress the sudden surge of power. Her aura was restrained and there was no visible change in her appearance.
"Xiaobai, how are you?" Jing Gan asked with concern.
"I'm fine, Brother Jinggan." Xiaobai shook his head, with a determined light in his eyes, "We found the clue."
With the fusion of emotions and soul, she felt as if she was more complete.
"We shouldn't stay here for long. Let's leave first." Jing Gan looked around. Although the ban had been broken, no one knew whether there were other dangers or surveillance here.
The two quickly left the ruins of the ancient Demon Sealing Platform.
Shortly after they disappeared.
The space at the original location fluctuated slightly, and a vague and familiar figure quietly emerged.
He (she?) glanced at the empty center of the formation, then looked in the direction where Xiaobai and Jinggan left, with a complicated and unreadable look in his eyes.
Then, the figure waved gently.
The broken star track automatically reset itself, the cracked platform slowly closed, and even the broken entrance to the space restriction was restored silently to its original state.
Everything seemed as if no one had ever been here.
Only the broken Demon Sealing Platform continued to remain in the space, quietly waiting for the next reincarnation.
