"Junior greets Senior Cloud Ghost."
Xing Jue was immediately overjoyed when he saw this familiar figure. He hurriedly went up to pay his respects because he could sense that this was not just a remnant soul, and it seemed to contain the intelligence of Old Man Cloud Ghost.
However, an incomparable shock surged onto Old Man Yun Gui's face when he saw Xing Jue. Although it only appeared for an instant before disappearing, his eyes were extremely grave as he looked at Xing Jue. There was a different meaning behind it.
"Where are you from?" After a long time, Old Man Cloud Ghost spoke. His voice trembled as if he was very excited.
"Junior is a disciple of Hermit Peak, Xing Jue."
"I'm asking where you are from, not which sect you are from."
"Mortal Realm."
"Mortal Realm? You said you are from the Mortal Realm? "Old Man Cloud Ghost's tone became even more solemn.
"Yes, Junior is indeed from the Mortal Realm."
"How long have you been here?" Old Man Cloud Ghost continued to ask.
"It has been a few years." Xing Jue answered truthfully without hiding anything because there was no need to hide anything from a dead person.
"Only a few years?" Old Man Cloud Ghost's eyes flashed with surprise. Then, a look of ecstasy appeared on his solemn face. He said, "Good, good, good. The heavens don't want my clan to die. The heavens don't want my clan to die."
Old Man Cloud Ghost was talking to himself excitedly, but Xing Jue was confused. He was a little confused, but facing such a person, it was not appropriate for him to ask too much.
"Come, quickly get up. You and I are of the same clan. There is no need to stand on ceremony."
Old Man Cloud Ghost quickly walked in front of Xing Jue and helped Xing Jue up. When he looked at Xing Jue, his eyes were filled with ecstasy and he looked at Xing Jue with incomparable kindness.
"Senior, what do you mean?" Xing Jue was stunned, and his dull face was filled with surprise.
Old Man Cloud Ghost smiled and said, "I am the same as you, a member of the Soul Eater Clan."
"What? Senior, you are also a member of the Soul Eater Clan? But … your aura?! "Xing Jue was shocked.
He had never imagined that Old Man Cloud Ghost was actually a member of the Soul Devouring Race. Since they shared the same bloodline, he should have sensed Old Man Cloud Ghost's identity long ago.
However, he could only sense the uniqueness of Old Man Cloud Ghost's soul. He couldn't sense how Old Man Cloud Ghost's soul was similar to his own. If Old Man Cloud Ghost hadn't said it, he wouldn't have connected it to him.
"Heh, I know what you are referring to. I am indeed a member of the Soul Eater Clan. The blood of the Soul Eater Clan flows within me."
Old Man Cloud Ghost smiled and explained, "However, I am not a complete member of the Soul Eater Clan. The blood of another race flows through my body, so my soul is very special. However, it is different from yours."
"Buzz ~" However, right at this moment, Old Man Cloud Ghost's body suddenly began to turn blurry. At the same time, his complexion turned pale.
"Oh no, we don't have enough time." Old Man Cloud Ghost became anxious. He then said to Xing Jue with a solemn face, "Don't worry.
We don't have enough time. "Old Man Cloud Ghost became anxious. Then, he said to Xing Jue with a grave expression," Xing Jue, I will now pass on the soul mantra to you.
You must remember it well! "" Yes. "Xing Jue nodded. He could see that Old Man Cloud Ghost's remnant soul could dissipate at any moment.
Swish, swish, swish.
Old Man Cloud Ghost didn't say the mantra. Instead, he pointed with his finger. Through the method of memory inheritance, he infused the mantra into Xing Jue's mind.
As for Xing Jue, he had firmly memorized those chants in his mind. Moreover, after roughly reading through them, he discovered that those short chants were extremely profound and had the effect of adding the finishing touch to a dragon.
"Xing Jue, remember, the Soul Eater Clan's Soul Power is very special. It is your greatest advantage against your enemies. However, you can't use Soul Skills as the foundation. There are so few Soul Skills in the world, far less than Battle Skills."
Old Man Cloud Ghost's body was dissipating, but he was still solemnly reminding Xing Jue, "This mantra is something I comprehended before I died. As long as you comprehend the profoundness within it, in the future, you can practice all the Battle Skills in the world, regardless of whether they are Soul Skills or Battle Skills."
His eyes were filled with reluctance, as if he really didn't want to leave this world. He still had a lot to say to his descendant, Xing Jue.
"Senior, where did you come from? Are there still members of the Soul Eater Clan in this world?"
"Why did you go against Mount Wuzhi to obtain the five Rakshasa Stones? What is the use of the Rakshasa Stones?" Xing Jue asked. This was what he was most concerned about at the moment.
"If you want to know the answer, go to the Fallen Goose Valley." Old Man Cloud Ghost's body had completely dissipated, but he left these words behind.
"The Fallen Goose Valley? The place known as the Primordial Battlefield?! " Xing Jue was shocked. He had heard Elder Zhuge and the others mention that the straw box that sealed the sixth-grade immortal herb came from the Fallen Goose Valley.
"Xing Jue, Xing Jue!!!" At this moment, the Soul Elder stood in front of Xing Jue and shook the sleeping Xing Jue.
"Oh, Soul Elder."
Xing Jue finally opened his eyes. His face was still filled with shock. At this moment, he was too shocked. He never would have thought that Old Man Cloud Ghost, the former strongest person in the world, was actually a senior of the Soul Eater Clan.
"You're finally awake. I was wondering what happened to you." The Soul Elder let out a sigh of relief. He didn't know that Xing Jue had projected his consciousness into his mind.
"Soul Elder, do you know where Senior Cloud Ghost came from?" Xing Jue asked.
"Uh … You saw that old fellow Cloud Ghost?" The Soul Elder suddenly understood something.
"Yes, but it was just a remnant of his soul. He passed me a set of mnemonics before disappearing."
"Can you tell me how much you know about Senior Cloud Ghost?" Xing Jue asked. He really couldn't wait to know about Old Man Cloud Ghost's past because it was related to the secret of the Soul Eater Clan.
"Ah ~ ~ ~" The Soul Elder suddenly laughed bitterly. His face was filled with helplessness. After a moment, he said, "Although I followed Cloud Ghost for hundreds of years, I actually have a limited understanding of him.
He is a very cautious person. He doesn't seem to trust anyone, even me. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left behind an inheritance and arranged a remnant soul to guard this place. "
"I can only tell you that Cloud Ghost has lived for a very long time. Although he has been in this world for hundreds of years, this is definitely not his true age."
"How long has he lived?" Xing Jue continued to ask.
"Even if it's not tens of thousands of years, it's at least thousands of years. This is because he knows about all the major events in the past thousands of years, and even many vague historical events."
"It's just that I've only heard him mention it indirectly. He has never told me in detail."
"I know he has a lot of secrets, but if he doesn't tell me, I won't ask. Just like how I don't know the reason why he risked his life to get the treasure of Mount Wuzhi." The Soul Elder laughed bitterly. It was clear that he had deep feelings for Old Man Cloud Ghost, even if Old Man Cloud Ghost never truly believed him.
"Then do you know about Luoyan Valley?" Xing Jue continued to ask. Right now, everything about Old Man Cloud Ghost was a secret. However, he did say that Luoyan Valley had the answer Xing Jue wanted.
"Luoyan Valley?!"
"Where do you want to go?!" Hearing these three words, the Soul Elder's eyes suddenly became unusually serious.
"I want to know," replied Xing Jue.
"I only know that Luoyan Valley was an ancient battlefield."
"Ten thousand years ago, the Soul Source World wasn't like this. Legend has it that at that time, fifth-tier immortal herbs were everywhere. Natural Oddities that are hard to find now were just common things in that era."
"But later, there was a great war in the world. That war affected the entire world and turned everything into nothingness, and the center of the war was today's Luoyan Valley."
"It's said that back then, Luoyan Valley was extremely miserable. The corpses of powerhouses were enough to pile up into a mountain range. Blood dyed the ground red. It was truly a river of blood."
"And not long after the war ended, a magical goose came to the world."
"It was extremely powerful. The low cry it made in Luoyan Valley was enough to spread throughout the world. Looking at the corpses on the ground, it quietly shed tears, as if it was mourning the dead."
"Therefore, later generations called it the Divine Goose. The Divine Goose's mourning lasted for a whole day. Then, it tore the ground apart, turned the battlefield into a valley, and buried all the dead at the bottom of the valley."
"After that, the Divine Goose left and never appeared again. But there were survivors who witnessed everything. Therefore, that ancient battlefield was named Luoyan Valley."
"After that, the Soul Source World underwent a transformation. Because the old forces all declined and perished in that war, new forces constantly appeared in the world like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. But until today, it still hasn't been able to restore the prosperity it had before the war."
"Because it was a long time ago, and because later generations yearned for that prosperous and prosperous world, it was named the ancient era before the war because it's a completely different era." The Soul Elder narrated the events of the past, as if he was yearning for that era.
"Such a thing actually happened?" Xing Jue lowered his head and didn't say anything. He thought of many things. Ten thousand years ago, many things happened in that era.
"This is just a legend. It's been too long, and no one can prove whether it's true or just a story made up by later generations."
"But that Luoyan Valley is indeed ancient, and it's very strange. Most of those who enter it never return. It's the world's number one forbidden area."
"So, before you have enough strength, don't have any ideas about Luoyan Valley. Otherwise, even I can't protect you." The Soul Elder seemed to have seen through Xing Jue's thoughts, and he warned him in an extremely serious manner.
"Yes." Xing Jue nodded silently, but he had already made up his mind. He had to go to Luoyan Valley.
"Then, has Old Man Yun Gui been to Luoyan Valley? As the world's number one expert, he should be able to enter and exit that place freely, right? "But then, Xing Jue thought of this question.
"No, at least in the hundreds of years I followed him, he never mentioned Luoyan Valley," replied the Soul Elder.
And Xing Jue fell into deep thought again, because he knew that Luoyan Valley must have a great connection with Old Man Yun Gui and even the Spirit Eater Clan.
"Alright, put away these treasures and let's leave this place. This space won't exist for long," said the Soul Elder.
"Yes."
Xing Jue nodded again. He could feel that this space could collapse at any time, and when it did, they would be leaving this place. As such, he had to put away these treasures, or they might be scattered outside.
In reality, as the two of them had guessed, the space completely collapsed not long after Xing Jue put away the herbs and treasures.
At this moment, a desert appeared in front of the two of them. It was also in the southern part of the world, and it was not far from Wolong City.
Xing Jue was not in a hurry to help the Soul Elder refine his body because he knew that it would take a long time. Right now, he needed to return to Wolong City as soon as possible.
Now that the direct disciples of Mount Wuzhi had all died in Crouching Dragon Mountain, it would definitely cause a commotion among the various forces. Therefore, he had to return to Mount Wuzhi as soon as possible. After all, he still needed to rely on his identity as a direct disciple to find an opportunity to obtain the Rakshasa Stone.
