Chapter 229 Soul Mist Swamp
The moment one of them died, a faint red light emerged from his body and disappeared in an instant.
Witnessing this scene, Su Wen's expression changed slightly.
"It's the Soul Falling Technique!"
Su Qingwu had heard of the name of this technique while in the illusion.
The soul returns to its origin and transmits the last scene of the deceased's life back to the eyes of the practitioner.
This technique is used by many powerful forces, with high-level monks performing it on younger generations, so that when the younger generations are training outside and encounter accidents, they can easily find out who their enemies are and take revenge in time.
The fact that they can use the Soul Falling Technique shows that the forces behind these three people are not small.
But Su Qingwu did not regret killing them.
After five hundred years of illusions and countless battles, these were nothing new to her and did not cause any ripples at all.
At the side, Su Wen keenly sensed the changes in the aura around her.
"Qingwu, you..."
"It doesn't matter. No matter who is behind them, as long as they come to our door, we will kill them all. I have reliable information that the Soul-Nourishing Tree is likely to appear in the Soul Mist Swamp. I plan to go and take a look."
"It's very dangerous there. Finding the Soul-Nourishing Tree is my job. Qingwu, you'd better not take the risk there."
"Don't worry, I'm sure nothing will happen."
Having said this, Su Qingwu turned around and left, rushing all the way towards the location of the Soul Mist Swamp.
Su Wen followed behind, his mind full of thoughts.
She found... Qingwu seemed to have changed a little.
Compared with the past, he now exudes a murderous aura that makes people afraid.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but recall the time when Qingwu escaped from the illusion test of Wuji Academy in Yuehua Realm.
Maybe...she experienced something similar this time, and the impact on her was much greater than before.
......
About half a cup of tea later, Su Qingwu gradually approached the Soul Mist Swamp.
Gray-green mist filled the air, and from time to time in the distance, ghostly figures could be seen passing by.
After slowing down her speed, she used one hand to form a defensive technique for herself, and then flew into the swamp.
At this moment, a strong sense of resentment came over me, and a sharp scream reached my ears.
Then, many fragments of memories that did not belong to her flooded into her sea of consciousness.
There are scenes of self-cultivation, bloody scenes of fighting, and more of what one sees and thinks when on the verge of death.
Su Qingwu had an indifferent expression and drove out all the memories that did not belong to her from her sea of consciousness. Then she extended her consciousness and looked around for the soul-nourishing tree.
She had seen this tree before in the fantasy world.
The whole body is dark brown, the cross section is star-shaped, and there are many lines on the surface that extend irregularly.
However, in the illusion, the Soul-Nourishing Tree appeared in the northern Zhenwu Continent.
At present, it is unlikely that she will pass.
If she still gains nothing from entering the Soul Mist Swamp this time, then when her cultivation level reaches a higher level in the future, she will consider going to the Zhenwu Continent.
......
After a stick of incense, the sixth wave of strange memory fragments poured into the sea of consciousness.
Su Qingwu originally wanted to drive it out directly, but the next moment, she saw an unusual scene in these memory fragments.
A girl in red clothes and white hair jumped into the pool of fire. Immediately afterwards, the light in the pool became brighter and a scarlet flute that looked familiar flew out from the sea of fire, emitting a constant stream of light.
The scene changes in an instant.
An ancient altar gradually came into view.
In the very center, there is the scarlet jade flute.
Soon, a girl in red clothes and white hair flew out from the jade flute, with no expression on her face.
The scene changed again.
Under the altar, many people wearing strange costumes were kneeling in a crowd.
It has two wings on its back and wears leaves as clothes. It does not look like a human, but its facial features are somewhat similar to those of humans.
The leader had an old face, and he looked at the girl in red with a look full of piety, saying words that Su Qingwu could not understand.
The corresponding scene flashed by, and when it stabilized again, all I saw was blood all over the sky.
The girl in red held a jade flute in her hand and activated the treasure, slaughtering all the creatures who were kneeling on the ground and bowing.
Finally, she walked towards a cave.
At the entrance, there are twisted and eye-catching characters engraved.
Although it is quite different from the characters used today, Su Qingwu still recognized it: the Yuyi tribe.
The picture is completely shattered here.
For a moment, she was stunned.
In the illusion, she met people who claimed to be descendants of the Yuyi tribe and came from the Western Lingyuan Continent.
Those people also joined the hunt, wanting to seize the Qiankun Bottle.
Once she was seriously injured, which was caused by this tribe.
But... later on, thanks to this clan, she recovered from her injuries and her cultivation level greatly increased.
The reason was that the Yuyi tribe wanted to use the tribe's treasure to kill her, but for some unknown reason, the treasure backfired.
Not only that, the treasure also turned around to help Su Qingwu and killed all the Yuyi people present.
The treasure of the town clan was the jade flute that appeared in the previous picture.
She remembers the incident clearly.
A member of the Yuyi tribe, wearing a white jade mask, sacrificed a red jade flute and silently chanted a spell. From nowhere, a powerful force descended upon him.
An unexpected change occurred at this moment, and the power around him dissipated in an instant. On the other hand, the person who was chanting the spell vomited blood and looked at Yu Di with a look of disbelief.
Immediately afterwards, Yu Di launched an attack on those who were besieging Su Qingwu.
The first to bear the brunt were the Yuyi people.
Wherever the red light covers, no one will survive.
Thinking back carefully, the words spoken by the Yuyi people at that time were indeed somewhat different from the human language.
But those people don't have wings behind them...
In the illusion, Su Qingwu only saw the jade flute once, and after that, she didn't know the whereabouts of the treasure.
When she had achieved the state of harmony and was strong enough, she tried to find the jade flute, but in the end she found nothing.
By that time, the Yuyi tribe had already been destroyed and no one knew the whereabouts of the treasure.
Now, in reality, seeing this memory in the Soul Mist Swamp, could it be a coincidence?
Or was it destined that she would unravel the mystery of the illusion?
Judging from the perspective presented by the relevant memory fragments, the source is not the girl in red in the picture.
This makes sense.
Since that person had already thrown himself into the pool of fire, it was impossible for his corpse to appear in the Soul Mist Swamp.
If she has the chance in the future, she will go to Lingyuan Continent to solve the doubts in her heart...
Thinking of this, Su Qingwu withdrew his thoughts and continued to search for the soul-nourishing tree in the swamp.
Su Wen also entered this place, but she was affected more severely and is still at the entrance.
Ghosts and monsters often appear in the swamp, wandering back and forth in the green mist.
They were not very powerful and just looked scary, but in reality they posed no threat to the two of them.
After about two cups of tea, Su Qingwu finally made a discovery.
She just raised her sleeves and shot out a short, inconspicuous piece of dark brown wood from a gap in a huge rock.
However, the next moment, a gray shadow flashed by and came straight towards his face.
Before he got close, he saw a sharp blade appear out of nowhere and instantly hit the gray shadow.
Dark green blood spilled out, and the attacker's body instantly split into two, fell to the ground, and slowly sank into the swamp.
After killing the ghost with one blow, Su Qingwu brought the Soul-Nourishing Wood to his front and immediately sent a message to Su Wen...
