Gu Yao knew very well how much time he had spent in the illusion, but if it were someone else, he might feel that a month or two, or even a year or two, had passed, and there were still endless barren years waiting for him.
Suddenly, a thick black mist rose from the darkness all around. Xu Chen in the space stared outside without blinking, and when he saw the strange black mist, he immediately reported it to Gu Yao. Gu Yao sneered in his heart, thinking that he had not waited in vain for these few days. What he wanted to see was who would lose patience first.
It was difficult to distinguish darkness from black mist, not to mention that the consciousness was restrained and could not leave the body, so the black mist took advantage of this advantage and kept approaching Gu Yao, until finally, the black mist completely wrapped up Gu Yao who was sitting there, and Gu Yao struggled for a few times before he could move.
At this time, the black mist carried a gray ball of light and rushed towards his sea of consciousness. As soon as it entered the sea of consciousness, the gray ball of light had no time to get excited, and was pulled into another space by an irresistible force. The cub who had been waiting there for a long time swallowed the gray ball of light in one gulp.
"Let me go! Black Nightmare Beast? How could there be a Black Nightmare Beast?"
"Let me go quickly, I will tell you everything you want to know..."
"Let me go, I am the only one who knows how to leave this damn place, I swear, I will never offend you again."
But no matter how the ball of light struggled, Zi Zi did not respond, but chewed and digested the ball of light. The gray ball of light weakened visibly until it screamed for the last time and completely disappeared from this world.
After the ball of light completely disappeared, Gu Yao found that he was already in the lobby of the seventh floor. Does this mean that the test of the seventh floor has been defeated because of the disappearance of the gray soul?
In a blink of an eye, he saw Chi Changye and Liao Xu. These two people found a place to sit down like Gu Yao. When the darkness disappeared, they had already stood up, ready to take action at any time, but they relaxed the moment they saw Gu Yao.
"What's going on?" Chi Changye and Lexu said at the same time. They realized that the lifting of the dark space should be related to Gu Yao.
Gu Yao accepted the message from Zizi and said: "I encountered a residual soul and wanted to possess it, but I chose the wrong target."
Lexu couldn't help but smile. He really chose the wrong target. None of the three of them was so easy to possess. His Red Lotus Karma Fire would shatter the soul once it collided with it, but the Black Nightmare Beast in Gu Yao's place would not have a good end if it encountered it, and he could even use the memory of the residual soul.
Gu Yao released Xu Chen because he was sure there was no danger. He said, "Let's go upstairs and talk as we go."
There was no more entrance or exit to the black hole. This time they stepped onto the stairs, and Gu Yao told them the initial information he had received: "The remaining soul you want to take away is the last soul left here. He has devoured the other souls one after another to strengthen himself and not to perish with time."
"Because every time the secret place is opened, the martial artists who come in are getting weaker and weaker, these souls can't wait any longer, so they start to devour each other. The memory of this remnant soul is a little confused because of this devouring, and the biggest obsession is to seize the people who can reach here. Among the three people who came in, I am the easiest one to seize, so he chose me." Chi
Changye smiled, and Xu Chen sneered unceremoniously. Of course, he was laughing at the remnant soul who had already been scattered. His vision was too bad.
Fortunately, he entered the ancient space, otherwise it would be his turn. Of course, he is not so easy to seize. Does he think his Red Lotus Fire does not exist?
They had expected this situation. Those who were exiled here were not good people at first, such as the previous owner of the Immortal Slaughter Sword. They should not expect such people, especially after they experienced the despair of not being able to leave this place and return to the world of immortals, demons and monsters. Would they really treat the people who came in well?
Being robbed was a situation they had imagined would happen. When they were in the darkness, Gu Yao knew it was coming.
"Just as we guessed, there are no more levels later. They have built a large formation and this Eternal Immortal Tower, and they have no more supplies to use, so there are no test levels on the upper two levels. We are the first group to come in these years, and they think we are the same kind as them."
In other words, Canhun thought they were also exiled. Gu Yao could only say sorry, they are really not the same kind of people.
Gu Yao explained the various situations to them while passing the eighth level and going up to the ninth level.
The eighth floor was empty, but the ninth floor was not. In the center of the ground was a huge formation, and on one side was a shelf. On the shelf were some jade slips, books, and storage rings. Needless to say, they were left behind by those people. In the memory of the residual soul,
the souls that stayed here were unwilling to stay in this divine punishment space, and they were always obsessed with finding a way back, so after death, their belongings were left here.
As for the remaining monks, because they saw less and less hope, they no longer expected this Eternal Immortal Tower, so they left here, built a city, married and had children, and spread out. Before they died, they did not receive any good news from the Eternal Immortal Tower, so they did not return to the Eternal Immortal Tower.
After digesting all this information, Gu Yao didn't know what to say. His hatred towards the remaining souls was also reduced. Without their obsession, their souls would not give up until death and even after death, and continue to find a way out. There would not be the current Yongxian Tower and the huge formation on the ninth floor. Perhaps the four of them would really be trapped here.
It is easy to enter the God Punishment Space, but it is difficult to leave. Their cultivation is much weaker than those who entered at the beginning.
Among those cultivators at the time, there were people who reached the peak of formation creation. Otherwise, it would be impossible to use the existing conditions of Tianyuan Continent to arrange a place like the secret place and leave behind the formation on the ninth floor.
The four of them stayed on the ninth floor, looking through the items left by the monks while letting Gu Yao continue to absorb and digest the memories of the residual soul. It was no small task to sort out useful things from the chaotic memories.
One thing surprised them a little, that is, the residual soul can only stay on the seventh to ninth floors, and cannot go down to the seventh floor or below. Otherwise, they would not have to wait for Gu Yao and the other four to arrive before thinking about taking possession of it. This should be the restriction given by the formation of the Yongxian Tower.
"So, the senior formation master at that time had some bottom line in his mind, otherwise taking possession of it would not be a difficult task. Such a restriction also kept him above the seventh floor." Gu Yao speculated. "
Look, there are key clues in this jade slip." Xu Chen exclaimed.
Lexu hurried over, took the jade slip and looked at it. After reading it, he couldn't help but sigh: "Xiaoyao, you guessed right. This jade slip was left by the senior formation master. Before his physical body died, he hadn't figured it out. After only his soul was left, he didn't give up. But after he figured it out, he couldn't realize it, so he left the method here."
Xu Chen continued: "No wonder those souls are going crazy. I guess when they devour each other, the first one they want to devour is the formation master
."
It is unknown what the situation was like at the time. We only know that this unknown formation master did point out the way back for them, which is really sigh-worthy.
The formation master left a message at last, hoping that if future generations come here and see the jade slips he left behind, they can leave a ray of hope for this continent. Because the initial formation, in addition to relying on the power of the stars and the immortal stones and magic stones on their bodies, was to extract the vitality of this continent, and the final result was the exhaustion of the vitality of the continent.
When future generations rely on the method he left behind to leave the Divine Punishment Space, they hope to remove the formation here, so that the vitality can return to the continent, and the cultivation level of the practitioners on the continent will continue to improve. Maybe in the future, they can go to the world of immortals, demons and monsters through proper means.
The four people followed the instructions of the senior formation master and found the control hub of the entire formation. The situation of the Yongxian Tower, including the entire secret place, appeared before them.
They saw many martial artists from different families fighting in the first level of the illusion. Some of them had already successfully passed the level and were resting in the lobby of the first level, preparing to enter the second level. The three families of Mu Wanyun who came in with them were already in the second level. The youngest Mu You was also fighting in the second level, and his performance was no worse than some mid-level heavenly martial artists.
The four did not interfere with their training. They needed to fight on their own to gain something. It was enough to do it once.
They could now go to any place in the secret place through the central hub, but the good things had been obtained by them during the previous exploration. Now the remaining Yuan plants and rare items would be left to the martial artists on this continent. In comparison, the things left on the ninth level were more suitable for them.
Those jade books were the lifelong gains of the last batch of cultivators. Some were about alchemy, some were the formation techniques passed down by formation masters, some were left by weapon masters, otherwise the Eternal Immortal Tower could not be built. There were also precious cultivation techniques from the immortal, demon and monster worlds. It is conceivable that if these things were made public in the immortal, demon and monster worlds, it would cause a sensation.
The four of them read these things with great interest, and at the same time, they were gradually mastering the methods taught by the senior formation masters to avoid any mistakes when actually practicing.
In the lobby of the second floor, Mu You finally came out of the illusion. He was very weak, but he managed to hold on to the end with his strong will. However, he also knew that the pills left for him by Gu Yao and Xu Chen were also very important. In addition, he was able to come out with the swordsmanship trained by Chi Changye. Before meeting these four seniors, he would never have dared to imagine the situation today.
With the help of pills for healing and replenishing energy, Mu You's physical condition continued to improve. His exhausted energy was replenished, and his meridians were constantly expanding because of the repeated breakthroughs, and could accommodate more energy.
When he opened his eyes and saw the great elder guarding him, he immediately congratulated him: "Congratulations to the head of the family for his advancement to a mid-level heavenly martial artist
."
"Congratulations, the great elder has also made great progress."
