Limerick
"Woo woo woo..."
The wind carried the sound of weeping. This was the sound of the wind, but it also sounded like sobbing. There were old people, children, men, and women crying.
It was clearly just the sound of the wind, but there were all kinds of sounds. This showed that this was not an ordinary place!
Ye Xuan ignored all of this and continued to walk forward. Before long, Ye Xuan saw a teahouse in front of him.
A divine beast with spikes all over its body and an incomplete form was holding a teapot and serving tea to a customer.
The tea was fragrant, but it also carried the smell of blood!
It was already extraordinary that such a teahouse would appear in such a strange place. However, Ye Xuan still walked towards the teahouse.
"Sir, what would you like to drink?"
The divine beast carried the teapot to Ye Xuan's side and asked Ye Xuan.
If it weren't for the special environment here, his words and actions would be no different from a waiter in an ordinary teahouse.
But if it was a trap, such an obvious trap was a little illogical!
So at this moment, Ye Xuan's heart was filled with countless doubts, but he did not ask.
...
"A pot of tea!"
Ye Xuan looked at the divine beast and said casually.
The divine beast did not say anything else, but turned and left. Before long, it returned with a pot of tea.
"Sir, this is your return tea. After drinking this pot of return tea, you can turn around and go back."
Ye Xuan was slightly taken aback. This divine beast was actually asking him to leave?
"What if I still want to go in?"
"How you choose is your own decision. I am powerless to stop you. But if you really must go, then drink all the tea, not leaving a single drop behind."
"Leave a soul, leave a soul, leave a trace of the soul, the soul is not destroyed, the spirit remains, the cycle of thousands of years."
"The road ahead is difficult, difficult, the road ahead cannot be held back, cannot be held back..."
The divine beast was actually reciting a limerick. Unfortunately, Ye Xuan did not understand what it meant.
It was only when Ye Xuan saw the customers around him that he understood.
"System, detect this waiter!"
"Ding! System notification: the target is a trace of the soul, not a living thing."
So it was!
This was a Soul Retention Teahouse!
The meaning of leaving a soul was very simple. It was to keep the soul.
Some forces had special abilities. Through special abilities and special magic treasures, when a person wanted to do something they were not confident in, they would use special means to leave behind a strand of their soul.
The advantage of this was that if he really did die, then as long as there was a trace of his soul, there would be a chance for him to be revived.
This sort of method could not be considered as a commonly used method. After all, on the path of cultivation, it could be said that one could die at any moment.
However, some important figures of the factions were used to leave a soul Retention Teahouse.
At the most crucial moment, through this soul, it was equivalent to having a second life.
Here, there was a Soul Retention Teahouse. He didn't know who opened it, and why it was opened here.
Looking at the customers who were silently drinking tea, it was likely that they had repeated this action countless times. This was because they were only a strand of remnant soul. Without the help of external forces, it was impossible for them to rely on a strand of remnant soul to be revived.
Who was it that built such a place?
What was the purpose of her building this place?
This was the Drought Sea, the habitat of the ancient beasts. Could it be that all the divine beast masters of the Demon God Domain had built this place because they wanted to exterminate the ancient beasts in the Drought Sea?
Maybe it was possible, but what about the yellow sand zone?
And what about the waiter? Why couldn't he stay?
Listening to his tone, it seemed like he wanted to keep something. Was it to keep someone like Ye Xuan, who was trying to enter the Drought Sea?
Ye Xuan did not know. He had no place to find out.
At this moment, Ye Xuan had thousands of questions, but he could only keep them to himself. No one could answer for him.
This teapot was a treasure because the tea inside could condense on its own.
However, Ye Xuan did not take it away. Leaving it here might be the right place for this teapot.
...
Ye Xuan did not drink the Soul Retention Teahouse. He continued on his way.
After leaving the Soul Retention Teahouse, Ye Xuan knew that he had set foot on the Path of the Ancients.
Perhaps someone had walked this path before and hunted ancient beasts through this place.
He walked for a full seven days.
Ye Xuan had thought of flying through the air to increase his speed. Unfortunately, the idea was beautiful, but reality was cruel.
The sky was a path that could not be taken.
Perhaps it was because this place was close to the yellow sand zone, or because there was a serious overabundance of laws here, but in any case, there would be nomological beings floating through the sky from time to time.
They were extremely fast, disappearing in a flash.
If it were anyone else, they might think that these nomological beings were just passing by.
However, Ye Xuan, who had experienced the nomological storm, knew that this was the entire course of their lives.
There was a strange energy in the sky. It was a nomological power that Ye Xuan had never seen before, nor could he sense. The sky was extremely empty. Just from this, Ye Xuan could tell that the sky was more dangerous than the ground.
That was why Ye Xuan did not choose to fly through the sky.
At this moment, Ye Xuan was no longer in a monotonous black. Instead, he could see buildings. Seeing buildings meant that danger was approaching.
Because this was undoubtedly equivalent to entering the Drought Sea. And these buildings were undoubtedly built by ancient beasts.
The architectural style of ancient beasts was different from that of the Divine Tribe of the Kunlun Divine Domain and the Beast Tribe of the Demon God Divine Domain. These buildings were filled with a sense of ancientness.
Each building was not only huge, but also very rough.
At this moment, in front of Ye Xuan, Ye Xuan did not know what these buildings were used for because they did not have any signs.
These buildings seemed to be made from the skin and bones of some giant beast.
Ancient beasts did not have much intelligence. To be able to achieve such a level was already commendable.
Moreover, these buildings did not have the slightest aura of an array. In other words, these buildings were unguarded.
Ye Xuan observed the buildings from afar.
Logically speaking, if there were people in the buildings, they should have discovered Ye Xuan long ago. However, Ye Xuan had not been discovered until now. There was only one possibility — this was an abandoned building!
Ye Xuan slowly walked forward, towards the buildings.
Not long after, he arrived at the door.
Indeed, it was wild enough. Perhaps only ancient beasts would have this kind of architectural style.
The walls were made of animal skin, but the ancient beasts had drawn strange patterns on them.
