Chapter 556: Searching for People, Gathering Souls
Xiao Changheng was silent for a moment, then said:
"intuition."
Yun Qingqing opened her mouth, closed it again, turned around and silently activated the teleportation array.
She had more important things to do right now, and she had seen enough of Xiao Changheng's unusual qualities recently, so she was not in a hurry to explore them.
The scene before their eyes flashed, and they had arrived at the top floor of the Xuanyuan Tower of the Seven Star Palace.
The teleportation array trigger terminal will light up naturally. Ji Wujiang has been waiting on the side for a long time. When he sees the two people appear, he immediately comes forward and bows respectfully to Yun Qingqing:
"My Lord, what do you want?"
He was somewhat pleasantly surprised. After all, it was New Year's Eve, and Yun Qingqing showed up at this critical moment. He immediately felt that the master had come to spend the New Year with the disciples of the Seven Stars Hall.
But Yun Qingqing's next words shattered his good wishes.
"Is Yuwen Ye still here with you? I have something to discuss with him."
Ji Wujiang paused for a moment, and coughed lightly:
"...Ah, that young man, he is still in seclusion to gather his soul, I guess it will take a few more days before he can come out."
Yun Qingqing said calmly:
"It's okay. Take me to see him first. I'll tell him a few things and then leave."
Ji Wujiang was puzzled and didn't quite understand how the man was going to explain the matter to his master while he was closing his eyes.
But he still nodded obediently and waved his hand to open a teleportation array on the ground:
"He is on the fifth floor. My Lord, just go through here."
Yun Qingqing and the other person walked into the teleportation array and soon arrived at a foggy space, which was the fifth floor of the Xuanyuan Tower.
The spiritual energy on this floor is richer than the last time I came here. This is the effect of the spirit gathering array taught by Yun Qingqing.
The thick fog in front of them made it almost impossible to see what was happening more than ten feet away, but Yun Qingqing's bright eyes were not affected at all. She walked towards her destination. Xiao Changheng followed closely behind her, observing her surroundings with a slightly frown.
When he entered Xuanyuan Tower for the first time, he knew that there was another world inside the tower. Each floor was a completely different space and was not even limited to indoors.
The fifth floor now looks like a mountain stream, and the surrounding scenery is vaguely visible under the cover of thick fog. As Yun Qingqing changes her steps and directions, the scenery often changes suddenly, and the surrounding atmosphere and sounds become completely different.
Fortunately, the two of them didn't walk for too long, and Yun Qingqing stopped soon.
There was a rumbling sound of water coming from the front, and the air here seemed to be particularly thicker, but Xiao Changheng had amazing hearing and immediately distinguished that this was a huge waterfall hanging in a high mountain stream, and the water flowed into a deep pool.
Yun Qingqing stood still and turned to look at him. The roar of the waterfall almost covered the sound of her words, but Xiao Changheng could still hear them clearly:
"Wait here for a moment. I'll be back soon."
Xiao Changheng looked towards the vague waterfall in front of him and said nothing.
Yun Qingqing walked to the edge of the pond, jumped lightly, and was immersed in the thick fog.
Xiao Changheng stared at the direction where her back disappeared for a moment, his eyes flickered slightly for a moment, he turned his head and slowly looked around, finally sitting cross-legged on the spot and closed his eyes.
He seemed to be resting with his eyes closed, but his fingertips were gently moving under his sleeves, as if he was writing something or drawing some lines, but no one could see this scene.
Yun Qingqing jumped directly to the bottom of the waterfall. There were several huge rocks here. One of them was directly hit by the water flow and was making a loud noise.
And right on that huge rock, Yuwen Ye sat cross-legged with his eyes closed and his hands making hand gestures. His long black hair fell down and stuck tightly to his shoulders. Although he was clearly enduring the impact of a huge flow of water, his face had no expression, and he looked calm and peaceful as if he was asleep.
Yun Qingqing stared at him for a moment, then sat down cross-legged on the boulder at her feet. She closed her eyes, clasped her hands together, placed her fingertips on her forehead, and gently drew out a wisp of spiritual consciousness, sending it towards Yuwen Ye.
After a moment, Yun Qingqing's consciousness entered an unpredictable space, with light and shadows flowing around her. She concentrated and carefully took a few tentative steps forward to confirm that this space did not reject her before continuing to walk deeper.
Yu Wenye's consciousness space is very different from that of ordinary people. It is full of bizarre illusions. If an inexperienced practitioner rashly searches for the gods, it is easy to get lost in it.
But Yun Qingqing felt that this place was very familiar to her, and she couldn't help feeling relieved. This showed that the effect of soul gathering had already appeared, and Qi Mo's soul had more or less returned, which was why these illusions appeared.
She dived deeper into her consciousness and finally came to the boundary between the surface consciousness and the deep consciousness.
Suddenly, there was a movement of light in front of her, and a young man appeared in front of Yun Qingqing, looking at her with a smile:
"Master, you can't go any further~! Otherwise, it will be very difficult for me~!"
Yun Qingqing slightly widened her eyes, feeling more and more relieved, and looked at Qi Mo:
"You... succeeded in gathering the soul?"
Qi Mo curled his lips and smiled, raising his hand to brush away a strand of hair:
"I guess so... But I need to spend some time to nurture him. I'm afraid he won't be able to come out for too long in the short term..."
Having said this, he suddenly blinked, looked at Yun Qingqing and said with a smile:
"When my memory falls asleep again, I won't remember anything in my next life. Master, you must take good care of me and don't let me get into any danger!"
Yun Qingqing's mouth twitched slightly: "Do you really think this is the first day I met you?"
Considering how calculating this kid is, now that he's back, it's good enough that he doesn't bring danger to others.
Qi Mo curled his lips with a look of resentment:
"Master, you can't say that. After all, this is a different time. It has been more than 2,000 years. As a master, it's not too much for you to take care of your disciple!"
Yun Qingqing rubbed his brows:
"Okay, okay, you're talking as if I would ignore you if you were really in danger. Let's get down to business!"
Qi Mo smiled with satisfaction and nodded:
"Master, please speak. I am all ears~"
Yun Qingqing's expression became serious:
"How much do you know about Emperor Bei Cang?"
"Hmm?" Qi Mo raised his eyebrows in surprise, squinting his eyes and recalling for a moment, "You are talking about my reincarnated father in this life... Father Emperor... What happened to him?"
Yun Qingqing coughed lightly:
"He's dead. He was possessed by another spirit at least half a year ago."
"Hiss..." Qi Mo grinned and fell silent.
Yun Qingqing didn't rush him and waited quietly for a while.
Qi Mo exhaled slowly and said:
"I see... If our father had been possessed by another body half a year ago, then his strange behavior during this period would make sense."
Yun Qingqing's eyes flashed, and she immediately asked:
"What do you mean by weird behavior?"
Qi Mo pondered for a moment and spoke slowly.
