"cousin… "
When Shen Luo heard the soft call, his brows couldn't help but frowned. He grabbed "Nie Caizhu"'s wrist, and with golden light flashing in his eyes, he stared at her.
With the help of his Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils, Shen Luo saw that the "Nie Caizhu" standing in front of him was made up of strands of golden light. There was also a thicker thread of light extending from the top of his head, all the way to his forehead.
He suddenly felt a chill under his feet. When he looked down, he found that his feet had sunk into the quagmire. Under the swamp, a strange force surrounded his legs and was pulling him underground.
Shen Luo moved his legs slightly and found that the force was not too strong, so he did not rush to pull it out, but looked towards Qing Lu.
Different from Shen Luo's situation where he was stuck in the quagmire at the beginning, Qing Lu's half body was already submerged in the swamp at this moment, but he still had a happy and complacent smile on his face, and he didn't realize at all that he was in danger.
The human figures and buildings surrounding him had not disappeared yet. There were strands of golden light extending from them, all connected to Qing Lu's brows.
At the same time, there were obvious fluctuations of soul power emanating from Qing Lu's body.
Shen Luo understood instantly that the poisonous energy in the Swamp of Desire, although seemingly harmless to the body, could arouse the spirit and soul. If one was not careful, it would cause the soul power of those who went deep into it to leak out, and create illusions based on their thoughts and ideas.
The maintenance of this illusion depends entirely on the soul power of the controlled person. The more complex the imagined scene is, the more soul power is consumed, and the deeper the person sinks into the swamp. Once the soul power is exhausted, the controlled person's soul will no longer be able to maintain itself until it collapses and disappears. The person will then be completely swallowed up by the swamp and completely disappear between heaven and earth.
"If this continues, this guy won't be able to hold on for much longer."
Shen Luo frowned slightly, without even looking at "Nie Caizhu" beside him, he raised his hand and wiped his forehead, instantly cutting off the golden thread connecting his eyebrows.
The connection between the soul and spirit was severed, and the figure of "Nie Caizhu" became illusory and vague, and the golden light within it also became vague until it disappeared.
Immediately afterwards, Shen Luo's mind moved, and the Huangting Sutra in his body began to operate. His legs shook violently, and the strange power that was wrapped around his feet was immediately shaken apart. He jumped lightly and broke free from the restraints.
Then, he kept his spiritual sense close, quickly caught up with Qing Lu, leaned down and put his hand on his shoulder.
In the illusion, Qing Lu was about to step through the gate of the mansion surrounded by his family when he suddenly felt a weight on his shoulders. He turned around and saw a person with a blurred face pulling him. He frowned and wanted to yell.
At this moment, Shen Luo noticed that Qing Lu's eyes had become very dim, and his body, which was originally a ghost fairy from the underworld, also looked a little illusory. It was obvious at a glance that his soul power was over-consumed.
Shen Luo quickly cut off the attraction of his soul with a palm, and pointed at his forehead to help him block the leaking soul power.
