Chapter 0959 A Wisp of Residual Soul
Gan Zhiwei voluntarily entered the land of selflessness, which was the only way they could think of.
The Land of Selflessness is a special void created by the Instant Platform. It intersects with the Demonic Cave at a certain point. This is also its only entrance and exit. Mu Xingqiu has found the location of this point along the Instant Platform spell. What he wants to do The only thing is to incorporate Gan Zhiwei's soul into his own system, then send it to the land of selflessness, and then bring the soul out before the body disappears.
Once in and out, the safe time is only a blink of an eye. If it is any later, the physical body will be destroyed by the Demon Pulling Cave, and the soul will have no place to rely on, and it will be useless to come out.
Mu Xingqiu accepted this plan, but he had no other choice.
The land of selflessness is like a city. The only city gate is occupied by the spell of the Instant Platform, which is used to input a steady stream of power. Moreover, this city gate is one-way. For hundreds of thousands of years, entry and exit are not allowed. Mu Xingqiu wants to break through. One instance.
It's easy to get in, you just need to incorporate the soul into the spell of the Instant Stage. All the previous remnant souls were sent to the land of selflessness in this way. It is more troublesome to bring the soul out. It takes a short time and requires more mana. .
Mu Xingqiu decided to give it a try. Now that he had the backing of the Devil's Cave, he had no shortage of mana.
Gan Zhiwei's soul was still intact, so he was somewhat resistant to the Instant Stage spell, but he finally accepted it.
Gan Zhiwei's pearl was already very bright, and now it was even more radiant, illuminating most of the imperial capital. Mu Xingqiu even vaguely felt a breeze blowing through it. The soul disappeared, and the magic of the Demon Drawing Cave in Gan Zhiwei's body was about to take effect, completely destroying the body. Although Mu Xingqiu was integrated with the Demon Drawing Cave, he could not control its magic. The only thing he could do was to immediately Bring the soul out.
In the blink of an eye.
The place of selflessness is like a cave with strong suction. As soon as Gan Zhiwei's soul entered, Mu Xingqiu himself felt shaken and hurriedly increased his magic power.
Gan Zhiwei's soul is back, but his body is still there. The pearl regains its light, but it does not return to its original state, but becomes weaker and weaker. The human form inside floats feebly, neither alive nor dead.
Mu Xingqiu himself felt as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer. He was dizzy and disoriented. The light in front of his eyes flickered in and out. He had no body, but felt the pain of hundreds of bones being broken.
I don't know how much time passed, but Mu Xingqiu finally returned to normal. He was surprised to see that Gan Zhiwei's pearls and human form were gone, but his physical body was still floating in the same place.
The body and soul of Amazhiwei, who had traveled in and out of the land of selflessness, merged.
Mu Xingqiu slowly input some mana into his body, and the first normal person in the Demon-Batting Cave woke up. This was a pain for him. Gan Zhiwei opened his eyes, his face turned pale at first, then turned red and purple. , the limbs were scratched randomly, the eyes protruded, and a strange sound was made from the throat.
He is suffocating.
Mu Xingqiu immediately cast a spell to stun Gan Zhiwei, then injected the magic power into all his meridians, and finally entered the lower Dantian, stimulating the inner alchemy inside little by little and making it spin.
As long as the inner elixir can move, a Taoist priest can persist for a long time even if there is no air.
Gan Zhiwei woke up again, much better this time, nodded to Mu Xingqiu, looked around and said, "This is really a desolate place."
The sound was as hollow as if it was coming from the other end of the 100-foot iron pipe.
"You created a miracle." Mu Xingqiu said.
Gan Zhiwei showed a wry smile, "Mortals believe in hell, and now I believe it too, the remnant souls there..." He shook his head, not wanting to elaborate on his experience in the selfless land, "I feel like you have opened a gap. , you can bring out the remnant soul from the place of selflessness.”
Gan Zhiwei's feeling was correct. Mu Xingqiu's control of the magic power of the Demonic Cave was very awkward. When he brought out Gan Zhiwei's soul, he used too much force and destroyed a small piece of the "city gate" of the Selfless Land. The instant spell was immediately It is blocked, but it is indeed a weak point. Mu Xingqiu's spell can directly go in and retrieve the remaining soul.
Now, he needs a dharma body to accommodate the remnant soul, otherwise, it will disappear completely as soon as it leaves the land of selflessness.
All the items in the Demon Drawing Cave were in a dead state and could not be used to cast spells. Gan Zhiwei volunteered again, "Let's use my physical body. As long as the inner alchemy rotates and I can bear it, it is considered a rest."
Gan Zhiwei really needed to rest. In a place with no air, his condition was more dangerous than others.
Mu Xingqiu couldn't cast spells on dead things, but he was more than able to deal with the normal sweet taste, so he used a gentle illusion to hypnotize him, protect his soul, and then enter the selfless land again to summon his soul.
The Instant Stage reacted violently to the "Seize the Gate" spell. Mu Xingqiu stepped in and out, trying not to confront the Instant Stage. He was far from being the opponent of the Taoist Treasure.
The first ray of remnant soul came out, and as soon as it entered Gan Zhiwei's body, he let out a shrill scream, raised his hands to grab at his face and body, as if the clothes were too tight and needed to be torn immediately.
This is not the remnant soul of the successor of Nianxinke. Even if it is, it is useless and cannot reveal any information.
Mu Xingqiu clearly remembered that the successor of Nian Xin Ke once spoke to him. He was clear and coherent and was definitely not a completely broken lunatic.
Mu Xingqiu kept summoning souls from the instant stage, each time, his technique became more and more skillful. The instant stage was like a fierce dog tied by an iron chain, pounced on the little mice that were running around him. Roar, but always a small step slower.
Most of the remnant souls have collapsed and are kept alive by the magic of the Instant Stage. They are not used to having a physical body. The first thing they do after entering is to harm themselves. Mu Xingqiu must drive them out immediately to end their pain.
A few remnant souls still maintain a trace of consciousness, their hands and feet are not moving, and they can even speak. However, the words they say are inconsistent and meaningless, and the longer they stay in the body, the more signs of madness they show.
They are also destroyed.
A place without self should not exist, Mu Xingqiu thought, no matter how big a crime he committed, enduring such endless torture was a bit too much. The Third Ancestor's original intention was to protect Kun Chaos soul from death, and he probably would not have thought that the selfless land would turn into the cruelest prison.
Feng Ruhui's remnant soul was also summoned, "Leng." She said, her whole body trembling, "Light me on fire, please, I am Luanjing Mountain Taoist Feng Ruhui..."
Feng Ruhui, who has been trapped by love and has experienced love and death over and over again in the unprotected place, was defeated by the bone-chilling chill in the selfless place.
Mu Xingqiu released her remaining soul and let it disappear in the void.
After summoning the soul for the fifty-seventh time, Mu Xingqiu finally heard the voice he remembered from Gan Zhiwei's mouth.
"Why did it take so long? You didn't strictly obey my orders...Ah, I recognize you. You are not Huan Shu, you are the little Taoist priest."
Illusion spell is what Nian Xin Ke calls true illusion. Mu Xingqiu used a spell to appear directly in Gan Zhiwei's mind, allowing the remnant soul to see him, but all he could see was Gan Zhiwei's body.
"It's me, Mu Xingqiu, but I'm not a Taoist priest now."
Remnant Soul glanced around. Except for the human figures in her mind, all she saw was darkness. She couldn't even see the shining pearls. "What is this place? You don't have me to rescue you?"
"This is the edge of the Devil's Cave. It's safe for the time being. I was imprisoned in it. Unless you are willing to help me, we can't get out."
Remnant Soul was silent for a while, then suddenly laughed, "Interesting, really interesting. After all, leaving the land of selflessness is a good thing. Is this the body you prepared for me? Why is it a man? Why... it's so ugly ”
Gan Zhiwei's body suddenly trembled twice, and Mu Xingqiu said sternly: "Don't touch his soul, he is my friend."
The remnant soul had just launched an attack on Gan Zhiwei's sleeping soul. If Mu Xingqiu had not used the method of protecting the soul, Gan Zhiwei would have died inexplicably.
"Well, things are different now. You are no longer the little Taoist priest you used to be." As soon as Canhun found out that the opponent was very strong, he immediately gave up the attack and even his voice became gentler.
"There is a true illusion, the illusion spell you mentioned, who came from me. Even for her, I will try my best to help you leave the Demon Cave, but first you have to help me."
"When I saw your memory when you visited the Demon Cave last time, I thought that you would never be able to turn it into reality with your ability. I really didn't expect it. Well, I am willing to help you."
At that time, Mu Xingqiu was just a little Taoist priest with the third level of breathing, and he didn't notice that his memory was taken away. But now he has the magic cave as a backing, and the successor of Nianxinke can't even see his pearl, let alone check the memory.
"Why can you remain normal in a selfless land?" Mu Xingqiu asked.
"It depends on what you mean by normal. Clear thinking and memory, able to cast some small spells? Yes, I am normal. With a complete soul and a unique self? I am not normal at all."
"You swallowed the remaining souls of other people." Mu Xingqiu guessed.
"It's better than suffering forever, and it's not devouring, it's fusion. The remaining souls are as tasteless as chewed sugar cane. I like complete souls, such as this one. It's really sweet. It's a pity that he is your 'friend'." There is no such good thing in the land of selflessness. The remnant souls of Nianxinke can only merge with each other. Only we can accept this kind of thing. The other remnant souls would rather be crushed into pieces than become a part of me. There are five in total. One hundred and sixty-three descendants were sent to the Demon-Bashing Cave. I am everyone, and everyone is me. Do you understand?"
There was a hint of ridicule in the voice of the residual soul. Mu Xingqiu actually understood: Lord Yishi gathered all the souls but did not merge them into one. The successor of Nianxinke did it, relying not only on the illusion of Nianxin, but also the constant torture of the land of selflessness. , it is like a melting pot, integrating the five hundred and sixty-three remnant souls of thoughts into one, but it is still a remnant soul that Mu Xingqiu cannot see but can feel.
"You once told me that there are eleven levels of mental illusion. Above the ninth level, there are two levels: one-minded and unintentional. That's why I'm here."
"Haha, it turns out you really believe it." Remnant Soul looked around again.
"What do you mean? Were you lying then?" Mu Xingqiu was surprised.
Remnant Soul did not answer this question, "Why are you imprisoning me in a man's body? Isn't there a woman's body here? It looks pretty good."
Mu Xingqiu was shocked again. Gan Zhiwei's soul was still sleeping, and the inner alchemy was rotating very slowly. The remaining soul should not be able to see anything inside. This was indeed the case for her at first, but now she can find other Taoist priests. body, indicating that her strength is rapidly increasing.
Gan Zhiwei's body trembled again, and a flash of white light emerged from the top of his head. The residual soul said directly: "It seems that I can leave the Demon-Batting Cave without your help. Someone has offered better terms than you."
