Chapter 278 This damn place, souls are sold by the pound
Chu Xuanyi took a deep breath, clasped his hands together and formed a hand seal.
"The three realms are connected, soul, return."
"The sky and the earth are boundless, the universe borrows the law."
"Imperial decree, open."
He began to chant the spell, and countless golden runes floated up from the magic circle, slowly rotating around the entire cold jade bed.
There was a strong wind in the secret room.
The tremendous energy formed a huge vortex, and the center of the vortex was Xiao Yu lying on the bed.
Xiao Yu's consciousness became lighter and lighter. He felt like he had turned into a wisp of green smoke, floating up lightly.
He could clearly see his own body lying on the cold jade bed, and he could also see the little woman sleeping peacefully beside him, but who made him worried.
Chu Xuanyi stood in the center of the altar, his face as pale as paper, his Taoist robe soaked with sweat.
"Gone." A faint voice sounded.
The next second, the 'Tears of Mermaid' in his palm suddenly burst out with a burst of blue light, enveloping his soul and pulling it downwards violently.
He didn't pull him towards the ground, but towards the body of Ajiu who was lying beside him.
Xiao Yu felt like a meteorite falling into an endless dark sea.
All around was a sticky, cold, and hopeless darkness.
Immediately afterwards, a series of colorful barriers appeared in his "sight".
These barriers, woven from countless twisted laws, emanated a chaotic and dangerous aura. Any tangible matter that came into contact with them would likely be instantly disintegrated into its most primitive particles.
This is the boundary that separates life and death.
It is the law barrier of the Netherworld Rift.
"Buzz."
Just as he was about to hit the first barrier, the 'Heart of Mount Buzhou' between his eyebrows suddenly lit up with a white light, forming a perfect circular shield that firmly protected his soul inside.
The blue light that led him turned into a sharp arrow and carried him forward fiercely.
“Boom.”
The intense tearing and dizziness almost made him collapse on the spot.
Pass through a barrier.
Cross again.
After passing through countless layers, just when Xiao Yu's soul was about to collapse, the blue light in front of him finally stopped. But this place was not a beautiful place.
This is... hell.
An endless grey space.
The sky is gray, the earth is gray, and floating in the air is endless gray "dust".
They are broken, twisted fragments of souls filled with pain and madness.
This is the back side of the Nether Rift.
Eye of the Soul Storm.
“Hehehe…”
"Hungry... so hungry..."
“My head…who has seen my head?”
"Kill...kill you...I'm going to kill you..."
Countless chaotic mutterings filled with negative emotions poured into Xiao Yu's mind from all directions like a tide.
Those soul fragments wandered aimlessly in this space, tearing and devouring each other.
The soul of a general wearing tattered armor was waving his arms mechanically, but his lower body had been torn to pieces by several hideous evil ghost souls.
A beautiful woman in a wedding dress was crying and calling her lover's name, but her eye sockets were empty, with only two black bloodstains.
The weak soul fragments were devoured by the strong, and the strong were devoured by the stronger ones.
There is no order or rules here, only the most primitive law of the jungle where the strong prey on the weak.
Xiao Yu's arrival was like a drop of boiling oil falling into a cold lake.
"Fresh... Such a fresh soul..."
"Eat him."
"He's mine."
In an instant, thousands of crazy eyes stared at Xiao Yu.
Countless residual souls screamed and roared as they rushed towards Xiao Yu frantically from all directions.
Xiao Yu's soul tensed up instantly.
He could even see the soul fragment in the front. It was a scholar with half of his body cut off. There was still a trace of his elegance on his face, but his mouth was cracked to his ears, revealing densely packed sharp teeth.
Just when the scholar's sharp teeth were about to bite his soul.
"Buzz."
The white light of the 'Heart of Buzhou Mountain' suddenly burst out.
Wherever the light reached, the residual souls that were rushing in the front disappeared in the gray space without even having time to scream.
The remaining souls behind let out bursts of terrified screams, looked at Xiao Yu in fear, and no longer dared to move forward.
Xiao Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the power of the 'Heart of Buzhou Mountain' is strong, it is being consumed every moment here. He must find Ajiu as soon as possible.
But where to find it?
There is no limit to the limitless here, no reference points whatsoever.
Just when he felt confused, a faint sensation came from the deepest part of his soul.
That is... the connection of the same fate curse.
"Over there."
Xiao Yu's heart moved, and he immediately controlled his soul to float in that direction.
Although the remaining souls around him were still eyeing him covetously, they were afraid of the power of the "Heart of Buzhou Mountain" and ultimately did not dare to step forward to stop him. They just followed him from a distance, like a group of greedy hyenas.
The further you go, the more violent the soul storm around you becomes.
Countless more powerful and crazier residual souls are fighting here.
Xiao Yu even saw a huge monster formed by the fusion of tens of thousands of soul fragments. Every time it opened its huge mouth, it could swallow hundreds of weak residual souls.
The memory fragments of these residual souls continued to impact Xiao Yu's mind.
One moment, he was a soldier hacked to death on the battlefield, feeling endless pain and unwillingness.
A moment later, he became the concubine who was poisoned to death in the palace fight, feeling the deep hatred and coldness.
After a while, he transformed into a monk who died from going astray in pursuit of the great way, his mind filled with confusing techniques and crazy thoughts.
Countless negative emotions and countless chaotic memories wanted to assimilate him.
"Get lost."
Xiao Yu's soul let out a roar.
He held on to his original intention tightly, with only one thought left in his mind.
"Find her."
"Take her home."
He didn't know how long he had been floating.
A day? A month? A year?
Here, time has lost its meaning.
The guidance from the curse of the same fate became clearer and stronger.
She's just ahead.
Finally, he saw a unique light, a touch of... gentle purple.
Xiao Yu's heart was lifted, and he tried his best to speed up.
When he passed through the last layer of storm barrier composed of residual souls, the scene before him stunned him.
This is a pure land.
A pure land that is completely different from the chaotic world outside.
In the center of this pure land, an extremely huge purple cocoon of light was quietly suspended there.
The light cocoon emits a soft light, and all soul storms will be silently purified and dissolved by the purple light the moment they approach this area.
The red thread from the same fate curse that had been guiding him all along, its end point was connected to this huge purple cocoon of light.
There's no mistake.
It's her.
Ajiu.
His Ah Jiu is inside.
