Chapter 889 The Dusty Matter
Liu Qinghuan thought about it, he had only entered two doors since he entered the Palace of Mirrors, so why did he offend the person who was manipulating the entire Palace of Mirrors behind the scenes?
According to the meaning of the golden puppet, it is also an incarnation left behind by Taoist Wang Ren. Is there any secret in it?
He smiled wryly and briefly described his experiences along the way: "I am just a monk in the Yinxu Realm. I am the lowest among all those who have entered the Treasure Mirror Palace. There is no chance of annoying the other party."
"That's right." The golden puppet said: "Those star stingers were specially raised by him to refine the elixir that only strengthens the soul, but you killed them all, isn't it annoying? "
Liu Qinghuan was speechless. It turned out that he had suffered a complete disaster, and all the Star Stings were killed by Mo Xuan.
But there is no point in worrying about these now, but the previous questions have been answered.
No wonder so many monks suddenly appeared in the same place. Presumably, they were all put into that space by the incarnation as food for the star stings.
He said with a dark face: "So, those of us who enter the Treasure Mirror Palace will be under the surveillance of others in every move we make?"
The golden puppet laughed inexplicably: "Didn't you already know where this place was before you came in? You covet the treasures in the Mirror Palace, and you are also treated as prey. It's only when you come and go that it becomes lively."
"However, that guy threw you into the Hungry Wind Cave and just moved his fingers casually. But then you destroyed the palace wall, but you went a little too far, so he released the Purple Dragon Sky Fire to burn you to death."
Liu Qinghuan looked up at him suspiciously. The other person was looking up at the sky motionless. His face carved with immortality stone was cold and inhumane, and only his voice conveyed a hint of emotion.
"His target is not a Yin-Yang virtual reality monk like you. He is patient and carefully arranges it. Every once in a while, he releases the key to the Mirror Palace to lure greedy monks like you into the palace... After waiting for so many years, this Once, maybe he will get what he wants..."
Liu Qinghuan's heart trembled, and she calmly walked to the rockery in the courtyard and opened the distance between them: "What does he want to do?"
"What else to do, of course, is to find a suitable body and then leave this hellish place."
"Why are you telling me this?"
The golden puppet lowered his head and smiled dumbly at his undisguised guard: "For no reason, maybe it's because he doesn't want to live anymore."
Liu Qinghuan looked at him with his mouth wide open: "What?"
The golden puppet sighed: "Human, there is no point in living for too long... What's more, I am now trapped in this puppet body, which has cut off the way to continue cultivation."
Although he spoke vaguely, Liu Qinghuan understood it instantly.
The Immortality Stone can make people live forever, even escape from reincarnation, and have no hindrance to cause and effect, but there are gains and losses, not to mention such huge gains.
If you are attached to the longevity stone for more than a certain period of time, you will no longer be able to get rid of the longevity stone. Just like Xun Weng back then, if Liu Qinghuan hadn't taken the Songxi Cave Sky Map out of the abandoned cave, he actually wouldn't have considered surviving.
As Ying Niang was turned into a weapon spirit, her soul was on the verge of disintegration, so she had no choice but to cling to the Immortality Stone for a period of time. Although it was not for a long time, and it was not to the point where her soul would disintegrate as soon as she left it, her cultivation progressed later. It was also greatly affected, and it never broke through the limits of the Nascent Soul stage.
Therefore, the longevity stone can be said to have equally great advantages and disadvantages. It must not be touched unless it is absolutely necessary.
"Back when I was fighting that guy to the death, I got sick and went to the doctor. I entered the body of this puppet, and I can no longer get rid of this heavy body."
Speaking of this, the golden puppet seemed to let go. His tall body sat down on the stone steps in front of the palace with a bang and started talking.
It turns out that when Taoist Wang Ren was wanted by the entire Qing Mingtian, he not only built the Treasure Mirror Palace with many mechanisms, but also condensed an incarnation as a backup.
At that time, Taoist Wang Ren was already a major cultivator above the integration level, while the Nascent Soul of the monks above the empty level had merged with the soul to become a Yang Shen. To refine the incarnation, one needs to truly separate part of the soul. Such an incarnation can be regarded as an external incarnation. A kind of thing.
After that, Taoist Wang Ren was busy taking revenge, killing people, and being hunted by others. Because he was afraid of being accidentally defeated by others, he would often leave his incarnation in the Treasure Mirror Palace without taking it with him.
Over time, the incarnation becomes more and more self-conscious.
At that time, the Qingming Immortal Realm had discovered the existence of Baojing Palace and often gathered people to attack it. Wangren was busy dealing with foreign enemies, and finally realized that his avatar was out of control. He was about to deal with him, but he escaped and blended into the puppets in the palace.
The reason why there is not a single puppet in the Treasure Mirror Palace now is because Wangren was so angry that he dismantled most of the puppets, and the rest were slowly consumed in the hands of the Qingming monks who came to attack the Treasure Mirror Palace. .
Soon, another catastrophe struck Wangren. Knowing that his chances of surviving it were extremely slim, he refined another incarnation before his death.
This incarnation is the one who now controls the entire Treasure Mirror Palace from behind.
After the death of Taoist Wang Ren, the second incarnation completely sealed the Treasure Mirror Palace and disappeared into the void, and then continued what it had left unfinished before, which was to capture the golden puppet.
"Now you see, I was the one who was defeated, so I could only hide under the Hungry Wind Cave and survive."
Liu Qinghuan listened with interest and asked: "Then why didn't he go down to the bottom of the cave and take you... um."
The golden puppet smiled freely: "We have been fighting for many years, and we are evenly matched. My original body was destroyed, so I used my last breath to escape down here and hide in this puppet body. And he didn't get it either. , only a residual soul is left, hiding in a lamp."
He pointed at the sky and said in a proud tone: "No matter how powerful the soul is, without the support and protection of the physical body, it is impossible to withstand the hungry wind. So with your cultivation, you can come here through the hungry wind. , but I can’t get out. That guy can’t get in either.”
Liu Qinghuan looked at the sky, and there was a faint sound of howling wind coming from above.
He thought about it and asked, "Why do you talk to me so much?"
The golden puppet suddenly fell silent, and then said after a while: "If you hadn't come, I might have turned into an unconscious stone, becoming the same thing as this heavy body and this stone temple..."
Perhaps because he said the words that had been buried in his heart for a long time, the golden puppet relaxed a lot, although the jade sculpture's face was still expressionless.
Although immortal cultivators are used to being alone, they do not feel lonely. What's more, if he can't even practice, the loneliness will be even greater, and the long years will become a kind of torture, and he can't find anything to sustain himself.
The golden puppet suddenly turned its head to look at him, and the light from its eyes flickered: "Do you want to go out?"
