Chapter 381 Escape to the Inner Palace
‘Ji Yin’ disappeared.
A corpse, a ghost, and a fox fled into the inner hall one after another.
Taihe didn’t understand what happened.
He stared at Xue Mei, who was surrounded by lightning, and cursed in a cold tone.
“Waste!”
He didn’t bother to pay attention to Xue Mei, and continued to fly to the inner hall without slowing down.
......
Taihe’s chains only restricted some of Song Wen’s movements, and did not imprison the movement of his spiritual power.
At the moment he hit the giant sword of the ghost king, he performed the art of death substitution and escaped.
At the same time, he performed the “Breaking the Blindness Art”, which was obtained from Du Tianhua. It can condense the spiritual consciousness into a line with stronger penetration.
Relying on the “Breaking the Blindness Art”, Song Wen successfully extended his spiritual consciousness out of his body and extended it to the stone gate of the inner hall.
As for the inner hall, if there is an invisible wall, even with the “Breaking the Blindness Art”, his spiritual consciousness cannot penetrate deep.
So, with the help of the displacement power of the art of death substitution, Song Wen’s real body appeared at the door of the inner hall.
Then, he released the silver corpse and the ghost king, and at the same time used the Great Hole Divine Thunder to sneak attack Xuemei.
Just to get the array plate in her hand.
Xuemei can only compete with Taihe in the Nascent Soul stage with the power of the array here.
If Song Wen wants to get out of this place alive, he can only focus on the array.
As soon as he stepped into the inner hall, he found that the ghost fog in the inner hall was extremely dense, as if it had substance.
Being in the inner hall is like being at the bottom of the deep sea. The ghost fog around him is surging like the water of the deep sea, constantly squeezing his body.
It seems to be eager to assimilate him and turn him into a resentful spirit without intelligence.
He activated the "Corpse King Blood Refining Technique" and suddenly turned into a thousand-year-old corpse.
Song Wen suddenly felt that the squeezing of the ghost fog was much weaker.
He couldn't help but feel surprised that Xuemei's silver corpse body could not resist the erosion of the ghost fog, but the "Corpse King Blood Refining Technique" could weaken the power of the ghost fog.
However, "Corpse King Blood Refining" cannot completely resist the erosion of ghost fog. He cannot stay in the inner hall for a long time. After a long time, he will be gradually eroded by the ghost fog.
Song Wen took the array plate from the silver corpse, took the silver corpse and six holy armor Gu into his body, and only left the ghost king by his side.
The silver corpse and the holy armor Gu could not withstand the erosion of the ghost fog. Only the ghost king could move freely in the inner hall.
Song Wen then began to look at the inner hall.
The inner hall is not big, about a few acres in size.
The deeper you go into the inner hall, the thicker the ghost fog.
Song Wen was worried that the ghost fog in the depths of the inner hall would accelerate his body's transformation into a ghost. He did not dare to go deeper and stayed a few feet to the left of the stone gate of the inner hall.
The dark fox was seriously injured. It crawled in the center of the inner hall, with a pair of dark eyes, staring at Song Wen.
Most fox monsters are very intelligent. Song Wen tried to communicate with the dark fox.
"Senior Dark Fox, I believe you have also seen that I am not on the same side as the person who hurt you in the outer hall. I hope that you can allow me to take refuge here for the sake of my help in getting you out of trouble."
It is not known whether the Dark Fox is not able to understand human language or it does not want to pay attention to Song Wen, a human. It stared at Song Wen with cold eyes and did not make any response.
"Senior Dark Fox is silent, I am the senior who agrees."
While Song Wen was speaking, he raised his hands and slowly approached the Dark Fox.
The Ghost King followed Song Wen with a giant sword.
As if he had sensed that Song Wen had bad intentions, the Dark Fox climbed up from the ground, arched his back, and let out a low roar.
"Senior, please don't misunderstand me, I..."
Before Song Wen finished speaking, he heard a movement from the stone door of the inner hall behind him.
After Song Wen and the Dark Fox entered the inner hall, the stone door closed automatically.
The stone door opened, and Taihe's figure appeared at the door.
But he did not rush into the inner hall rashly, but activated the chain magic weapon and shot towards the inner hall.
When Song Wen heard the movement from the stone gate, he ignored the invasion of the ghost fog and activated the "Thunder Escape Technique" to rush towards the depths of the inner hall.
The chain was like a headless fly, sweeping back and forth in the inner hall several times, but returned in vain.
The ghost fog surging in the inner hall had a strong suppression on the spiritual consciousness.
Even Taihe, who was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, could only sense a few feet.
Taihe pondered for a moment, took a step out, and entered the inner hall.
In an instant, the ghost fog swept towards him.
A magic shield lit up on Taihe's body.
The white shield was particularly conspicuous in the dark ghost fog.
Under the erosion of the ghost fog, the shield barrier quickly turned black and dark.
Taihe noticed the change in the shield light cover, his face was gloomy, and he retreated two steps and exited the inner hall.
He turned and came to Xuemei, his eyes were cold, and he said in a cold voice.
"Why is the ghost fog in the inner hall so dangerous? I, a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, can't resist it?"
Xuemei was stared at by Taihe, and she felt like a thorn in her back, and she was terrified.
Now, she has lost the formation plate and is far from being Taihe's opponent.
If Taihe wants to kill her, it is easy.
"This place is called the Nether God Temple. It is the place where the ancient demon giant, the God Blood Sect, cultivates the Blood Nether Guard. The ghost fog here comes from the ghost fog maze, and has the ability to pollute the magic power and consciousness of the cultivators. The corrosive power of the ghost fog is pervasive, and no matter how strong the cultivator is, it is difficult to resist."
Taihe frowned and said in a deep voice.
"If that's the case, why can that junior in the foundation-building period resist the pollution of the ghost fog?"
Xuemei shook her head, looking confused.
"I don't know about this either. As far as I know, only the Blood Nether Guard can stay in the ghost fog for a short period of time, and can also use the power of the ghost fog to temper the body."
"Could it be..."
Xuemei's eyes suddenly widened, and an incredible look appeared on his stiff corpse face.
"What?" Taihe asked sharply.
Xuemei said, "He is very likely to have practiced the "Corpse King Blood Refining Technique", which is a special technique for the Blood Nether Guard."
"Corpse King Blood Refining Technique?" Taihe whispered.
Xuemei nodded, "Corpse King Blood Refining Technique and Longevity Technique are the two major cultivation techniques of the Shenxue Sect."
Xuemei's words were reserved.
"Corpse King Blood Refining Technique" and "Longevity Technique" are not the two major techniques of the Shenxue Sect.
Shenxue Sect has always had only one technique, which is the "Corpse King Reincarnation Technique" that she has always dreamed of.
Taihe said, "I have never heard of the name of "Corpse King Blood Refining Technique". But "Longevity Technique" is the most widely circulated technique in the current cultivation world. Apart from prolonging life, I have never heard of any magical features of this technique."
Xuemei said, "Isn't prolonging life magical enough! Isn't it what we cultivators seek to live forever? Moreover, the methods of prolonging life circulated in the cultivation world are either illusory or as difficult as ascending to heaven. In comparison, practicing "Longevity Technique" is undoubtedly the easiest way to prolong life."
Taihe said, "What you said does make some sense. However, I am now more curious about your identity. Why do you know these ancient secrets so clearly?"
Xuemei said, "I accidentally got an ancient notebook, which records some things about the God Blood Sect."
Taihe's mouth curled up with a smile.
"Oh? Really?"
"Since you know the Hades Temple so well, is there a way to enter the inner temple without being affected by the ghost fog? The escaped young man is very important to me, I must capture him alive."
