Gu Chen suppressed his voice and looked at the man in front of him in disbelief.
With the man in the bamboo hat in his current state, it is simply wishful thinking to restore his original cultivation level or to seize him!
In other words, the purpose of the man in the hat that he originally deduced was completely wrong. With his remnant soul, it is impossible for him to return to the top!
"Son of the Era, son of the Era, I originally thought that this era belongs to me, and I should be the one who is above the heavens and all the ways."
The man in the hat did not directly answer Gu Chen's question, but muttered to himself, looking a little crazy.
"Who would have thought that my heart is as high as the sky, but my life is as thin as paper. A gate of decay has completely destroyed all my ambitions. It turns out that I am only that small."
The man in the bamboo hat's words were shocking. He had always been proud, but now his words showed strong unwillingness.
In the corner of Soul Dao Purgatory, Black Dog and Qiu Mengyi looked at the man in a bamboo hat. After hearing his emotion, their eyes were extremely complicated.
"Are you still obsessed with it, just to play another game with Xingjun, who thinks he is the god and dominates everything?"
Qiu Mengyi murmured, "This is the first time I have seen that after death, the soul is scattered, and the remaining soul can be forcibly gathered together because of a ray of obsession."
She had not taken action against Taoist Jingling before, just because she saw the truth and understood all his thoughts.
Once she understands what the other person wants to do, she can no longer do it.
Even if you are already dead, you still have to fight against the sky again. How courageous is this?
That man may be evil or cruel, but he also has a strong will that will never surrender to heaven and earth.
It was this will that allowed his consciousness to remain for several years after his body and soul disappeared from the divine realm.
However, the obsession that allowed Taoist Master Jingling to survive for several years will completely disappear today. He has worked hard for several years to achieve today.
Qiu Mengyi couldn't help but look at Gu Chen, and a word came to her mind, lucky person.
Not only did he win the favor of the Emperor of Heaven and the Immortal Emperors, but even the most evil demon in the history of the Ninth Realm chose to entrust him with his last wish!
"There are rumors that the rule of Xingjun may be threatened, and the person who triggered the emergence of the Gate of Death is the Son of the Era. However, in the endless years in the past, the world under the rule of Xingjun has never seen anyone who can successfully rebel."
"Everyone who was identified as the Son of the Era is dead. Gu Chen, will you be the exception?"
The man in the bamboo hat was talking to himself, looking at Gu Chen, and slowly forming seals with his hands.
As he formed the seal, the power of faith in Mount Sumeru completely boiled, and the golden light spread across the sky.
The majestic power of faith seemed to connect the entire universe. Gu Chen was keenly aware that countless lights and shadows were coming through the void and landing here!
"What exactly do you want to do?"
Gu Chen looked at the man in the bamboo hat gloomily. The light and shadow coming from him made him feel vaguely friendly, and he guessed some possibilities.
"Gu Chen, I have been watching your growth since the beginning of Kunlun Continent."
"Time and time again, your growth always exceeds my imagination."
The figure in the bamboo hat seemed to be chatting about home affairs, and seemed to be giving his last words, smiling.
At this moment, both of their souls were overwhelmed by the vast soul power, and were in absolute stillness, unable to do anything to each other.
I don't know whether it was because of the remaining consciousness of the man in the hat in his head, or because the souls of the two were too close, but Gu Chen could easily detect the emotions of the man in the hat.
There was no malice towards him in his emotions, but instead revealed some expectations and some relief, which Gu Chen had never imagined!
"You have grown very fast, and the path you have taken is also very remarkable. I originally thought that the enlightenment of the soul origin would be enough for me to break out of this ninth realm and make a difference in a wider world."
"However, it turns out that I have failed. The origin of the soul alone is not enough. Perhaps, only the path you take can make it possible to do what I can't do..."
"It's just that the road you are taking is too difficult. With your intelligence, you may be able to perfect this road one day, but Xingjun will not give you enough time."
When Gu Chen heard this, he clenched his fists tightly and his eyes turned red. "Is this why you have been looking for me for more than two years?"
The man in the bamboo hat didn't answer, he just kept talking to himself.
"When I crashed into Dao Mountain and died as a martyr, if I were an ordinary person, my soul would have been completely shattered, and all traces of me in this world would have completely disappeared."
"But the origin of the soul is worthy of being the divine avenue among the three thousand avenues. Although I am dead, my huge soul power has surprisingly remained, and along with the collapse of the heavenly way, it has dissipated again between heaven and earth."
"It's just that my soul was destroyed by the Gate of Death after all. Even if my soul power is still there, I can't come back from the dead."
"Fortunately, I still have a remnant soul alive. With a ray of obsession in my heart, I forcibly gathered my consciousness and survived until now."
Gu Chen was shocked when he heard that once the deity dies, even if there is still a separate soul, it stands to reason that he will lose consciousness quickly and dissipate between heaven and earth. This is an unchanging rule of heaven.
However, the man in the hat just relied on his obsession to delay the disintegration of his consciousness. The pain he had to endure and the price he had to pay were unimaginable!
"My true form has long since perished, and a ray of remnant soul still exists in the world. It can't do anything originally, and the huge soul power left behind can only slowly fade away over the years."
"Because this huge soul power belongs to me, I cannot give it to others at will."
Qiu Mengyi in the distance listened silently. She originally thought that the man in the hat had some way to help her condense the origin of her soul, but after knowing that it was related to his original soul power, she completely gave up the idea.
The way of the soul is so complicated. Although the consciousness of the man in the hat has disappeared, his soul power cannot be absorbed by everyone. If she wants to do this, there is a 99% chance that she will die!
"But you are different, Gu Chen. You once swallowed my soul, and the soul power I left behind can accept you!"
The man in the bamboo hat continued, his eyes sweeping towards the countless lights and shadows that were pouring into the Soul Dao Purgatory from all over the Ninth Realm at this moment. That was the Emperor Realm soul power that he had cultivated for millions of years and even relied on the Heavenly Dao!
"With the vast power of faith in Mount Xumi, I can finally recall all the lost soul power."
"This power of faith can also help you refine your soul, completely eliminate my influence, and allow you to condense the origin of your soul!"
"And the path you are taking has already reached a bottleneck. No one knows what will happen under the extreme understanding brought by the soul origin."
“Because we don’t know, it makes us look forward to it even more!”
The eyes of the man in the bamboo hat were shining brightly, and after being summoned, the light and shadow in the sky poured into Gu Chen's soul crazily!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Gu Chen felt that his soul power was growing at an alarming rate, but this rapid growth did not cause him any discomfort.
The warm power of faith enveloped his soul and helped him offset the negative effects of refining other people's soul power!
