As the mausoleum continued to shake, an extremely terrifying pressure spread, the heaven and the earth were trembling, and the sun, moon and stars lacked light because of it.
An old and nihilistic figure appeared beside the tomb. Just one glance made Long Yang feel a trace of the aura of the great avenue.
That was a majestic figure, with a stunning appearance, white hair, and wise eyes that could penetrate everything. With every gesture, the world trembled and wailed for him. His grace was unparalleled in the world.
The Nine-Star Emperor! That is the most powerful existence in the entire endless sea and even the entire fairy world!
Even just a trace of the remnant soul is enough to make Long Yang tremble with fear!
"Are you not from the Nie family?"
An old voice came, full of majesty.
"Junior Long Yang, followed Nie Xin'er, a descendant of the Nie family, into the trapped Qi formation, and was teleported here by the magic well."
The ghost figure smiled slightly, and the entire space seemed to melt away.
"Little friends, don't be nervous. I am the remnant soul of Nie Feng, the ancestor of the Nie family. I sensed the complete aura of the Fire Lin Sword, so I came out to take a look."
"The Fire Lin Sword is the most precious treasure I left to the descendants of the Nie family. I have established a family rule that future generations are not allowed to bring it into this place. It should be used as a sacred weapon to protect the family."
"Now that it has completely appeared here, it proves that the Nie family has almost been destroyed, right?"
What Nie Yun brought in was only a broken sword without a hilt. The soul of the sword was on the hilt, so it did not trigger the soul of the emperor-level old man.
Remnant Soul waved his hand briefly, and the Fire Lin Sword and its hilt flew into his hand. The sword glowed faintly red and buzzed, appearing extremely excited.
Remnant Soul slowly stroked the blade of the sword with both hands, then looked at the broken hilt, anger appearing on his face.
"These unworthy descendants actually broke this precious treasure!"
Then his expression froze.
"What's going on with the Nie family now?"
Remnant Soul asked.
"Senior, Nie Xin'er is the only one left in the Nie family, the rest are all dead!"
Long Yang cupped his hands and replied respectfully.
After listening, a hint of sadness appeared in the old man's eyebrows.
"Sigh... I think back then my Nie family was prosperous. After I received the Qilin blood, I trained several masters to sweep across the entire endless sea, Qilin Fire Brahma."
"Tens of thousands of years later, we ended up in this situation."
The remaining soul let out a sigh.
He stretched out his hands, combined the hilt and body of the sword into one, threw it to Long Yang, and said:
"If you want to recast this sword, you need Qilin blood and Fire Lin jade."
"The Qilin blood originally existed in my Nie family. Unfortunately, now that the family has fallen to this point, the Qilin bloodline is probably close to being gone."
"Then there is only one way, which is to break the formation and rescue the Qilin clan."
After saying that, Remnant Soul threw out an object, which shone with a dazzling red light and was crystal clear.
"This is Qilin Jade, take it."
Long Yang stretched out his hand to catch it, and immediately felt an extremely pure fire-attribute spiritual power entering his body.
"Thank you, senior."
"It doesn't matter! It's useless to keep this thing here with me. If you find it useful, I'll give it to you."
Remnant Soul waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to be polite.
"Senior, with his superb cultivation and unparalleled power, why did he fall here?"
"Whether it's a white ape, an electric eel, or a colorful python, none of them can pose a threat to our seniors."
Long Yang asked in confusion.
Although this ancestor of the Nie family is a strong man in the imperial realm, even a ray of remnant soul can still release an incomparable power that is frightening, but his personality is kind and gives people a sense of compassion. No wonder he was chosen by the holy beast Qilin.
Become the owner of Qilin blood.
Qilin is a benevolent beast, and people who are not naturally kind and simple will not be recognized.
"Oh? My friend asked this question. It seems that he already knows something about this rune space."
The remaining soul looked at the power of runes in the sky.
"Everything here is controlled by the power of runes. Except for the last monster, the ultimate guardian of this space, everything can be replaced."
"The four formations in this rune space are the four monsters, which are the four giant statues in the hall. I must have seen them before, right?"
Long Yang nodded. He observed the four statues for a long time and found that they were the formation eyes of the trapped Qi formation. However, all attacks were ineffective. It seemed that there was no way to destroy the colossi in that space.
Moreover, Long Yang had already seen the faces of the first three monsters, but the fourth giant statue was completely shrouded in black mist. Long Yang's consciousness could not enter it at all, let alone its face.
Now it seems that only by killing the monsters in Runeterra can the colossus be destroyed.
He told Remnant Soul everything that happened in Rune Space and what happened to the Nie family.
"My friend can kill those three monsters, so he must be very strong. But killing those three monsters is just the beginning."
Remnant Soul sighed.
"The formation that traps Qilin is not one, but mainly consists of three parts."
"The first part is the Qilin Locking Formation, which tightly traps the Qilin in that space. The door cannot be opened because of the existence of the Qilin Locking Formation."
"The second part is the inner formation, which is the Rune Land. As long as Rune Land is there, nothing in the outer formation can be destroyed."
"The third part is the spirit-absorbing array. It also has the function of a phantom array outside the mountain. It covers the entrance and continuously absorbs spiritual power from the outside world for the use of the Suoqi Formation and this Rune Land."
Speaking of the spirit-absorbing array, a trace of pain flashed across Canhun's face.
"When the spiritual energy in the spirit-absorbing array is not enough and reaches a certain limit, the terrifying blood evil spirit-absorbing technique will be launched, using the terrifying suction force to turn all living beings within a radius of ten thousand miles into spiritual energy."
"I was originally just an ordinary sea cultivator living under this mountain. When the blood evil spirit-absorbing technique broke out, I was rescued by Qilin. I received Qilin blood and some Qilin secret techniques, and I achieved my later achievements."
"But all my family members died in that catastrophe, and I was the only one left alive."
The remnant soul of the ancient emperor thought about his family, and his face still flashed with emotions. At first glance, he was a very affectionate person.
Cultivating the Immortal Way does not necessarily mean cultivating the ruthless way. Emperor Nie Feng was extremely powerful on the outside. He was equipped with Qilin Divine Fire. He would kill gods and Buddhas when he saw them. However, he treated his family members with extreme protectiveness.
"Then, after thousands of years of hard work, I achieved the imperial realm, and entered this land of runes, intending to help the Qilin clan out of trouble."
"In my time, the power of the runes here was more than a hundred times stronger than it is now, and so was the strength of the monsters."
"Therefore, even I used many secret methods to kill the first three monsters."
"And the three monsters I killed were completely different from the ones my friend killed."
"What I killed was an ink dragon, an ancient tree demon and a condor."
Long Yang's expression changed. Could it be that the guardian beast would change?
The remnant soul looked at Long Yang and smiled slightly.
"Otherwise, do you think my Nie family is mediocre and no one has ever killed these three monsters?"
Long Yang looked slightly embarrassed.
Remnant Soul continued:
"My guess is that everything that dies in this space will be absorbed by the black mist, and then evolve all the mysteries in its body. Finally, a monster will be copied from the black mist as a guardian beast."
"As for the white ape you mentioned, over millions of years, the power of the runes has been dissipating, and its swallowing ability has gradually weakened. It is probably because it encountered someone with a strong body and was unable to swallow it, so it had to create another centipede that can control people's hearts. Dialogue
The ape takes control.”
Long Yang frowned slightly.
"This Rune Land is extremely difficult to enter from the endless sea. Only the Nie family knows how to do it. So where did these monsters come from?"
Remnant Soul was silent for a long while, his eyes suddenly flashed with light.
"How do you know that this Rune Land can only be entered from this endless sea?"
"Magic wells are spread throughout the fairyland. Whenever a guardian beast dies, the magic well will look for suitable monsters everywhere, suck them into this rune space, and turn them into the next guardian beast."
"And as the guardian beasts are formed again, the giant statues in the hall will regroup and become the new guardian beasts."
To be continued...
