Zu An absorbed Old Man Mi's cultivation and used it to assist in tempering his soul.
After I felt that the preparations were almost complete, I began to absorb the other party's soul fragments.
Looking back now, I realize that Old Man Mi is unfathomable and is considered a strong one among the masters.
Although his soul was in disarray, each fragment of his soul still contained a powerful personal imprint.
If an ordinary person were to absorb it like this, they would probably go insane and die.
Zu An now has a solid foundation for his soul, and coupled with the absorption method taught by Mi Li, the danger can be greatly reduced.
But Mi Li also warned him that he must guard his heart and not be invaded by the other party's residual thoughts. Although there is no risk of being taken away, there may still be troubles caused by inner demons.
Zu An was naturally not careless and did not dare to absorb too much at once, so he tentatively absorbed a piece first.
Then he felt dizzy before his eyes, and many complicated pictures appeared in his mind, as if they were all about the growth of a young man.
Zu An knew that this was probably the time when Old Man Mi was a teenager, but everything was relatively blurry. It didn't have much influence on him and he kept watching calmly.
But soon the picture became clear, and everything seemed to be immersive.
He saw that old man Mi had to sell himself into the palace because he was too poor to survive.
Naturally, someone like him could only be a eunuch when entering the palace.
Then he was pushed to the legendary silkworm room. The temperature inside was very hot, and screams could be heard from all around. Apparently, the chicken-free talk was born one by one.
Looking at the old eunuchs with strange smiles around him, Old Man Mi panicked and began to struggle.
But all this was too real. He was obviously watching old man Mi being tortured, but the next second it seemed that he was being tortured.
It really feels like playing a VR game from a first-person perspective.
Both hands were tied to the bed, and then an old eunuch held a shining shovel and smiled sinisterly.
Then a group of young eunuchs roughly opened his pants, and then the old eunuch slowly walked over with a sharp shovel.
You can feel the cold air on the edge of the shovel even from a distance, and you can see that his hair is blowing and broken.
Even though he knew that this was what happened to Old Man Mi, the first-person perspective experience still made his scalp numb.
He originally thought that his nerves were strong enough to endure any pain and injury, but he never expected to encounter such a king.
"No!"
Seeing that the opponent was getting closer and closer, and he could even feel the cold air on the blade on his skin, Zu An instinctively started to struggle.
It was a completely immersive experience, and he could no longer distinguish between reality and illusion.
But at this time, his limbs had been tied to the bed. Just like in the dream, he had forgotten his cultivation and was as powerless as an ordinary person.
But as his pants were taken off, the blade approached his thigh, and the cold touch made all the hairs on his body stand up.
Not knowing where he got the strength, he finally freed one of his hands.
Then he stretched his arms forward desperately to block the opponent.
Huh?
Why is it so soft at the beginning?
He squeezed it instinctively, and it seemed that it was too soft--it was too much.
But at this time, he no longer cared about thinking so much, he only wanted to avoid this inevitable outcome.
…
Besides, Yu Yanluo was quietly looking at the man beside the bed. She didn't know why, but the more she looked at him, the more pleasing she became. But after a while, she suddenly realized something was wrong, because the man's expression seemed to be very painful, as if he was going through something terrible.
"Azu, what's wrong with you?" Yu Yanluo hurriedly came over to check.
Unexpectedly, the other party's hand suddenly raised, and she could not avoid it in her haste.
He was caught right away.
Her mind went blank for a moment, and she didn't know what to think about.
Soon the strange thing in front of her finally woke her up.
This bastard actually pinched me?
The anger value from Jade Yanluo is +555+555+555...
She instinctively raised her palm and wanted to slap him.
However, she immediately noticed that the other person still had his eyes closed tightly, and his expression was in pain.
"Obsessed?"
Yu Yanluo's heart skipped a beat. As a practitioner, she naturally understood the danger involved. If she slapped the other person, he would probably be dead.
At this time, she finally realized that after spending so much time with him, he was an out-and-out gentleman, and his abrupt behavior was definitely not his intention.
When she thought about it, she was immediately relieved and no longer as angry as before.
At the same time, I was thinking about how to help each other.
She wanted to convey vitality to the other party, but she didn't know his specific situation, but it was the opposite.
I wanted to wake him up but I was worried about disturbing him at the critical moment.
In the end, she realized with dejection that all she could do was stay quietly and not disturb him.
But this guy is really dishonest and shows no mercy at all.
The anger value from Jade Yanluo is +33+33+33...
At this time, Zu An in the illusion was restrained by his hands and feet again. When he saw the sharp shovel cutting directly, he felt despair in his heart.
At this moment, a series of anger levels sounded in his mind.
Huh?
Jade Yanluo, anger value...
Who am I and where am I?
At that moment, countless complicated information came back to his mind, and his eyes suddenly became clear.
It was Old Man Mi who was being tortured, not me!
After thinking about all this, it seemed that all his cultivation had returned. He broke away from the young eunuchs around him, and then kicked away the old eunuch who was executing the execution.
As he woke up, various images began to disappear, and this fragment of soul was completely absorbed by him.
Zu An secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't expect the whole process to be so thrilling. Although the shovel just now may not have any physical impact on him, it may have a psychological shadow on him.
He didn't want to experience for himself what Old Man Mi felt back then.
Then he began to absorb the second fragment. After the previous experience, he was much more relaxed this time.
Hey, wait, what on earth is that soft thing?
Could it be steamed buns?
Why does Mr. Mi have such a feeling in his memory?
As an experienced man, his first reaction was to understand what it was, but when he thought that Old Man Mi, a eunuch, would definitely not have such an experience, he gave up the idea.
I was thinking that it was probably Old Man Mi who worked as a handyman in the palace at first, maybe making noodles in the imperial dining room or something like that.
And this should be the happiest time for him, otherwise he would not feel happy.
Hey, this old man Mi is really worthless. In the end, the happiest thing in his life is working as a handyman in the kitchen, kneading steamed buns?
He put away his thoughts and continued to absorb the next few soul fragments.
Then he saw various pictures. There seemed to be a lot of differences between the palace and now. At first he thought it was another palace, but there were a few notable places that were exactly the same as now. It seemed that it was indeed the same palace.
Already.
Hey, has the palace changed so much in recent years?
Then there are various palace maids, concubines, and even emperors in the picture.
But what surprised Zu An was that the emperor in the picture was not the current Taishi Emperor.
Could it be the late emperor?
No, his expression quickly changed because he found that the style of the emperor's dragon robe was very different from that of the current Taishi Emperor.
While serving in the palace during this period, he knew that these uniforms had detailed regulations and could not be so different.
Then he vaguely heard some vague names and finally reacted.
This was the emperor of the Meng Dynasty before the Great Zhou Dynasty!
The official records of the Meng Dynasty have always been very secretive, but Zu An is now considered to be at a high level, with various powers that are beyond the reach of ordinary people. He generally knows that the emperor of this dynasty inherited the rights from the Meng Dynasty, and his methods do not seem to be honorable.
Even he had no way of knowing more specific information.
"Hey, this old man Mi has experienced several emperors." Zu An was a little surprised as he watched the scene.
Except for the first emperor, the following emperors were all very young.
He watched for a long time and even guessed that the emperor who appeared first had several children who died in infancy. Later, he was seriously injured and contracted diseases, and had to face the crisis of extermination.
So I had to choose the heir from the clan, because the queen was not the original wife, but was favored and promoted later, and she was not very old.
If an adult clan member were to be appointed as the new emperor, she, a young queen mother, would be embarrassed in front of her.
So in the end, he chose the young nephew in the clan as his adopted son.
Zu An was a little confused. Logically speaking, the memory that could be left in the soul fragment was the most unforgettable memory in Old Man Mi's life. After all, only strong obsession could survive the destruction.
For example, the scene where the chicken was cut off just now is completely understandable.
But why does Old Man Mi remember these things so deeply now?
Various scenes changed like a revolving lantern, and then he saw a young emperor and his eunuchs and maids wielding weapons to kill a minister.
The minister had been indifferent for a year and did not take any action at all. The people under his command killed all the eunuchs and maids.
Even the young emperor died in the chaos.
Zu An was shocked because he found that the minister looked familiar. He had seen him before at the altar in the palace.
That is Emperor Taizong of this dynasty!
No wonder the officials are so secretive about the records of the Meng Dynasty. It turns out that’s the case.
…
Pieces of soul fragments were absorbed, leaving only the last piece.
As soon as he started, he saw endless flames in front of him, a terrifying pressure came towards him, and a huge phoenix with its body burning with flames appeared in the darkness.
