In the hall, the huge stone tablet was slowly dissipating, turning into wisps of blue-gray mist, constantly flowing towards the dark area deep in the ruins. It was the origin of the stone tablet that was integrated into the formation. Only in this way could Yang Qi rely on the origin mark in his body to communicate with the formation and leave on his own initiative. Otherwise, after entering the formation, he would not be able to leave again.
The figure looked towards the core area of the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect, a gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes, and he slowly said, "I wonder if he has discovered that those souls are the most precious opportunities besides the origin?"
In the core area of the Wanxian Sect, besides the origin, the most precious opportunities are the souls. These souls are formed by the soul origins stripped from countless top masters in the history of the Wanxian Sect. Although their intelligence is not high, they do contain extremely precious opportunities.
The figure did not proactively inform Yang Qi of this, but let him discover it himself, because those souls could threaten Yang Qi's life and death. If Yang Qi took the initiative to hunt the souls, he might not be able to survive even six hours.
"Although he won't take the initiative to look for the soul, the soul is extremely sensitive to that area of space. As long as he starts practicing, he will definitely be discovered by the soul." The figure muttered to himself.
Shaking his head, the figure stopped thinking about it. Yang Qi had already entered that space and could only rely on himself. The only thing he could do was to help Yang Qi arrange a retreat!
…
"Almost an hour."
Yang Qi looked at the blue-gray mist around him, and a gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes. It had been an hour since he came to this space, and during this hour, he did not see the soul mentioned by the figure.
"It seems that spending six hours is not that difficult." A thought flashed through Yang Qi's mind.
The first six hours are the most dangerous. As long as you can get through the first six hours safely, even if you encounter some irresistible danger later, you can take the initiative to exit this space and there will be no danger.
Time passed by minute by minute. Although there was no danger for the time being, Yang Qi did not dare to be careless. Although he had never seen a soul, he understood that a soul that could be formed under such a special environment was definitely not an easy thing to deal with.
"Um?"
Seeing that almost two hours had passed, the shadow clone in charge of the periphery suddenly discovered some unusual movements. In the depths of the blue-gray fog, a powerful soul aura was constantly approaching him.
Through the induction with the clone, Yang Qi also knew that there was a soul approaching. He frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "Is it coming for me?"
"I didn't leave the area at all, how did the soul find me?" Yang Qi frowned slightly.
The soul was coming towards him, obviously it had discovered him, otherwise how could it come directly in his direction? But what puzzled Yang Qi was how the soul discovered him.
"What should I do?" Yang Qi's eyes fixed, and he thought quickly in his mind, "Should I leave, or kill that soul?"
Yang Qi had never fought with a spirit before, so he didn't know if he could kill it quickly. Once a fight broke out, there would definitely be a lot of noise, which might attract other spirits. But if he chose to retreat, he knew nothing about this space, and he might also attract more spirits on the way out.
Whether fighting or retreating, it might attract more souls. For a moment, Yang Qi was a little undecided.
"I plan to stay in the ruins for another eighty-one days. Even if I retreat now, I'll definitely meet other spirits in the future if I'm lucky enough not to encounter them. I can't be so lucky every time." Yang Qi looked in the direction of the spirit and made up his mind in an instant, "Fight!"
Since they will meet sooner or later, it is better to fight them early so that he can get to know more about these souls. Besides, almost two hours have passed now. He only needs to hold on for four hours and then he can voluntarily withdraw from the formation. The situation is not that bad.
Thinking of this, Yang Qi no longer hesitated. With a thought, the dark beetle returned to his body. After all, these souls were formed by residual souls, and they might be very skilled in soul methods, while the dark beetle could bless its own soul.
While retrieving the dark beetle, Yang Qi let his shadow clone quietly rush towards the direction where the soul came from, preparing to use the clone to investigate the specific situation of the soul first.
Whoosh~
In the blue-gray mist, a figure was moving forward cautiously. This figure was none other than the Shadow Clone.
"Is that the soul?"
As the soul breath got closer and closer, the shadow clone also found that a figure was constantly solidifying in the blue-gray mist. In the space before him, except for Yang Qi, there was absolutely no living person, so the figure before him was naturally the so-called soul!
When the figure got closer, the shadow clone also saw the other person's appearance clearly. The soul's body was not a physical entity, but somewhat similar to an energy body, but the body was thinner. The facial features were even more weird. Although they were very similar to humans, the proportions of the eyes, ears, mouth and nose were completely different from those of humans. In short, the facial features looked weird no matter how you looked at them.
The shadow clone's gaze fell on the figure, and his brows slightly frowned, "Except for the power of the soul, I can't feel any other fluctuations at all."
The entire figure seemed to be made up of soul power, as if there was nothing else besides that.
“No wonder it is called a soul.” Yang Qi thought to himself. He has seen many special beings in the endless universe over the years, but this is the first time he has seen a soul.
"not good!"
At this moment, Yang Qi's expression suddenly changed, and his soul's empty eyes looked towards the position of the shadow clone.
The shadow clone can become completely invisible with the help of virtualization and concealment, but the soul's gaze was looking towards the shadow clone's location. There is only one explanation, that is, the soul discovered the shadow clone.
Buzz~
The moment the soul looked towards the position of the shadow clone, a strong soul wave burst out from the soul. Almost at the moment when the soul wave burst out, the connection between Yang Qi and the shadow clone suddenly disappeared.
"Oh no!" Yang Qi's face darkened, and the connection with his shadow clone disappeared. Although he could still sense that his shadow clone was not dead, he could not give orders to the shadow clone. It was obvious that the shadow clone had lost consciousness.
Yang Qi looked in the direction of the shadow clone, a gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes, and he murmured, "We just encountered the soul, the shadow clone cannot be lost yet!"
Even if the Shadow Clone is lost, it will not cause any harm to Yang Qi, but the Shadow Clone itself is his trump card. He just encountered the soul and it was lost. What should he do next? (To be continued)
