Lu Ning took a step and entered the interior of the Tower of Return to the Ruins.
His gaze swept across the Tower of Ruins, noting the difference between its interior and exterior appearance.
From the outside, the Tower of Guixu appears to be multi-tiered and covers a fairly large area, but from the inside, there are no stairs leading upstairs, and the area is only a few hundred square meters.
Moreover, the interior appears to be made of pale rock, completely empty, without even simple decorations or pillars.
Lu Ning withdrew his gaze, remained silent for a moment, then his pale spiritual power surged, and he calmly said, "I want a mid-level dangerous soul weapon."
As soon as Lu Ning finished speaking, a portion of his spiritual energy was consumed. The next moment, a pale light appeared in front of Lu Ning, and a long spear made of white bones appeared in the air before falling to the ground.
Looking at the white bone spear on the ground, Lu Ning's eyes were quite strange.
It really happened.
After absorbing that wisp of pale light within the pale space he entered, Lu Ning's mental sea underwent changes.
Although Lu Ning didn't know what the pale light was, upon seeing the pale mental sea, he immediately understood what changes had occurred in his mental power.
He seemed to have the ability to make his wishes come true.
For example, right now, normally he would need to use the Pale Crystal to exchange for a mid-level Soul Weapon.
This would require quite a few pale crystals.
However, he condensed a mid-level soul weapon without using the Pale Crystal.
This only consumed a portion of his mental energy.
Of course, Lu Ning would not be able to materialize a mid-level soul weapon if he relied solely on his spiritual power.
His mental power activated the power of the Tower of Ruins.
In other words, the Tower of Ruins is essentially a soul weapon, a soul weapon that Lu Ning can use.
If this discovery gets out, it could very well incite a riot among the exiles.
Based on what Yan Bing had said before, Lu Ning knew that the most important reason why the exiles were able to survive in the Ruins of Return was the existence of the Ruins of Return Tower.
It's likely that none of the exiles, even Yan Bing, ever imagined that the Tower of Return to Nothingness was actually similar to a Soul Weapon.
Not to mention them, even Lu Ning himself was shocked when he confirmed that he could indeed use his mental power to manipulate the power of the Tower of Return to Nothingness and materialize a soul weapon.
The number of exiles entering and leaving the Tower of Ruins is well over a hundred million.
So many exiles had never received that pale light, but he received it on his very first try.
Why is this happening?
He didn't understand, but when he thought about the barrier of the Ruins and the city wall barrier of the exiled city-state, he had a somewhat familiar feeling.
He couldn't help but wonder if the Tower of Ruins had anything to do with him.
To be honest, Lu Ning had never seen the Tower of Return to Nothingness before, nor had he ever seen the Land of Return to Nothingness. Normally, he shouldn't have had such thoughts.
But the things that are happening now make him feel that something is not right.
Especially when he saw the corpses of evil gods everywhere again, and faced the distorted phantom of that shadowy figure, he began to seriously consider whether he had really forgotten something.
Was he very strong for a period of time?
Perhaps, for some unknown reason, they lost their power and their memories?
If that's really the case, then Lu Ning guessed that it might be related to the distorted afterimage he faced at the end.
After all, whether it was the time of the disordered time insects before or this time, the final scene was always Lu Ning facing that distorted afterimage.
So, what exactly is that distorted afterimage?
Judging from the appearance of the monster corpses around Lu Ning in the picture, they are probably quite powerful, and there may even be some at the level of evil gods.
Since even a being at the level of an evil god is dead, must my past self have also been at the level of an evil god?
Even so, he still lost his memory and power, which means that the distorted phantom was probably stronger than an evil god.
He couldn't help but feel heavy-hearted.
If things are really as he suspects, then the situation is even more hopeless.
He took a deep breath, and his somewhat confused mood quickly returned to normal.
He had forgotten how long it had been since he had experienced such a strong emotional fluctuation.
Regardless of whether those two phantoms were real or not, or what those distorted phantoms were, his goal was clear.
To become stronger.
If before it was just about finding the way home from the fog, now there's another reason.
That is to preserve the Earth, or at the very least, to preserve human civilization.
"Now, let me see where the limit is."
Lu Ning's calm voice slowly rang out.
Although he could use his mental power to manipulate the Tower of Ruins, it was as if he were using a Horcrux.
However, even using a Soul Weapon requires mental energy, let alone something like the Tower of Ruins.
He previously manipulated the Tower of Return to Nothingness to manifest a mid-level soul artifact, which consumed about one-third of his spiritual power.
He attempted to materialize a high-risk Horcrux.
He thought for a moment, then said, "I want a high-risk soul weapon of the Light element."
After absorbing the divinity of the Lord of Embers, Lu Ning also mastered the power of light.
He was just trying to materialize a Horcrux in this area to increase the diversity of his methods.
After saying this, Lu Ning's mental energy surged, and wisps of pale light bloomed from his mental sea.
As his mental energy was depleted, a dazzling golden ball of light appeared in front of Lu Ning.
The ball of light gradually grew larger, from the size of a small dot to the size of a fist.
Even so, it didn't stop and soon grew bigger again.
However, Lu Ning's expression quickly turned serious.
He discovered that his mental energy was being depleted faster than he had imagined.
Originally, he had more than two-thirds of his mental energy, but in just a short while, it was reduced to less than one-fifth.
The manifestation of Horcruxes has only just begun, and there is probably still a long way to go before they are fully manifested.
He frowned and deliberately cut off the supply of mental energy.
As Lu Ning cut off the supply of spiritual energy, the golden ball of light in front of him stopped condensing and then, without the support of power, it directly turned into light spots and shattered.
Lu Ning felt slightly tired in his brain because he had used up too much mental energy, but he recovered quickly.
He took a deep breath, sat down on the ground, and began to think while recovering his mental energy.
With his current mental strength, he probably wouldn't be able to fully manifest a high-risk soul weapon.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. After all, high-risk soul artifacts are used by Saint-level powerhouses!
Even high-level awakened beings will be greatly affected when using high-risk soul artifacts.
He's only at the eighth rank now, with mental strength approaching the ninth rank. Even if he were to pry open the Tower of Return to Nothingness, it would still be too much of a stretch to directly construct a high-risk soul weapon from scratch.
but……
Lu Ning smiled.
Although he couldn't do it with his own mental strength, he could still use the Pale Crystal!
