Zhu Ming crawled up from the ground in a daze. Suddenly, he thought of something and looked at the array anxiously. "Mother Feng, Feng …" The figure in the array had disappeared. Even the grievous energy had disappeared into the array.
"This …" He stood in the array, panicking. "What happened? Why did Mother Feng suddenly disappear? Where did she go? "
Yi Qing frowned and stepped forward to check the array on the ground. "This array is not broken. I don't think she broke out of it."
"Then where did she go?" Zhu Ming was getting more anxious. He conjured a few seals to search for her aura. After a while, he put his hands down in disappointment. "I can't find her aura. Also, there are no signs of other arrays being activated."
"Could it be that she broke through the void?" Bai Ze asked.
"No." Yi Qing shook his head. "There were no signs of any sorcery just now."
Everyone's expressions were solemn. The array was not broken and there were no signs of other arrays. How did she disappear?
Zhu Ming's expression was one of despair. It was as if all his energy had been sucked out of him. He fell to the ground. "Where did she go?"
"Souls can attract each other, right?" Shen Ying suddenly asked.
Everyone paused and then reacted. "Soul-Summoning Technique!"
"Mother Feng lost her primary soul …" Zhu Ming said anxiously. "You're saying that someone used her primary soul to summon the other souls away? But … "He changed his mind and his face darkened." I clearly trapped her with an array just now. What kind of Soul Summoning Array in this world can use just one main soul to summon all the other souls? "
"There is!" Shen Ying nodded. "Haven't you guys seen it before?"
Zhu Ming paused. A moment later, he seemed to have thought of something. His eyes widened and he exclaimed in unison, "That mystic realm array!"
Back then, that array was able to pull Shortie from the immortal realm all the way to the divine realm with just a sliver of her remnant soul.
"She's in her own residence!"
Zhu Ming regained his senses and turned to fly to the right. Lonemoon and the others exchanged a look and flew up on their swords.
"Mas …" Yi Qing turned to pull Shen Ying onto the sword out of habit. Halfway through, he seemed to have thought of something. His body stiffened, and the look in his eyes became even more complicated.
Shen Ying, however, did not seem to notice at all. She stood behind Chef and said, "Let's go."
"Yes, Mas …" He did not know why he did not want to say the last word. He looked at Shen Ying, confused. Seeing that she did not notice, he chased after her.
Bai Ze, on the other hand, glanced at the two of them and frowned. His face was filled with grievance.
Zhu Ming seemed to be very anxious. He flew very quickly. Lonemoon frowned and glanced at Zhu Ming, who seemed to be in a state of panic. Zhu Ming had completely lost his composure. In a low voice, Lonemoon said, "Fellow Daoist Zhu, don't you think you should explain to us your relationship with Mother Feng?"
Previously, he had mentioned that Mother Feng was his Junior Sister, and it didn't seem like they were close. But now, it didn't seem like that was the case.
Zhu Ming's face paled. He looked at Lonemoon guiltily. A moment later, he closed his eyes and sighed. "It's not that I'm hiding this from you on purpose. It's just that Mother Feng is too stubborn. I'm afraid that something bad will happen to her again. That's why I purposely did not mention the past. She is indeed not my Junior Sister. She is my Senior Sister. "
Zhu Ming's expression became even more complicated. "When she was alive, we were from the same sect. We grew up together. Later, she ascended to immortality before I did. By the time I ascended, she had already been killed by evil people. I became a ghost immortal because of her. But ghost immortals cultivate at the expense of their souls. The higher their cultivation level, the weaker their souls. Although Mother Feng managed to get her revenge after she became a ghost immortal, the hatred in her heart only deepened. Her cultivation became more and more extreme. I was worried that if this went on, her soul would dissipate one day. I wanted to persuade her to forget the past and reincarnate with me, but she refused. "
Zhu Ming clenched his fists by his side. His expression became even more sorrowful. "After that, she lost her primary soul in an accident and forgot everything. I hoped that I could coax her to reincarnate first and then slowly find her primary soul. That was better than having her soul destroyed. But I did not expect her hatred to be so strong. Even without her primary soul, she still remembers what happened in the past. "
"Fellow Daoist Lonemoon …" Zhu Ming said seriously, "I'm really sorry. I was afraid that if I brought up the past in front of Mother Feng, I might agitate her. That's why I did not tell her about what happened between us. Her soul is extremely weak now. It could dissipate at any time. If we don't send her to reincarnation soon, I'm afraid she won't have the chance to reincarnate again. "
Lonemoon looked at him, unsure of what he meant. He did not continue asking. Zhu Ming flew even faster.
Mother Feng's residence was not far. In less than ten minutes, they arrived. At that moment, there was a red light in front of them. Large numbers of wandering souls were fleeing in panic. Several arrays lit up where the palace used to be. They could vaguely make out the entrance to the mystic realm.
"Mother Feng!" Zhu Ming exclaimed. He rushed toward the entrance of the mystic realm.
"Zhu …" Lonemoon wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
He could only turn around and give the others a look, reminding them to set up a defensive array. Then, he followed Zhu Ming in.
In an instant, a red light filled their vision. It was still the small mystic realm that was full of arrays. But now, there was Yin Qi everywhere. The array that Shen Ying had destroyed had been repaired, and many changes had been made to it. Mother Feng was trapped in the middle of the array. She looked like she was in agony. Her body became fainter and fainter, as if she was about to disappear.
A man was floating above the array. His entire body was wrapped in black Yin Qi. His face could not be seen clearly. All they could make out was the man's figure.
"Sect Master, it's the ghost immortal who was chasing me!" Xuan Tong exclaimed.
Everyone's expressions darkened. This man had finally appeared. "The array below can devour souls. Everyone, be careful not to get too close." Lonemoon shouted a warning, but it was too late. Zhu Ming, who had entered first, had already rushed down without a care in the world.
"Mother Feng!"
Before he could land, several blinding beams of red light shot up and hit him. Zhu Ming's body swayed, and a double image appeared on his body. It looked like his soul was being split apart.
"Chef!" Lonemoon immediately turned to warn Yi Qing.
The next moment, Yi Qing conjured a ray of God Power, which wrapped around Zhu Ming and pulled him back.
Bai Ze stepped forward and conjured a spell to stabilize Zhu Ming's disintegrating soul.
Zhu Ming did not care about his own injuries. He turned to look at the person controlling the array above Mother Feng. "Stop! Who are you? What did you do to Mother Feng? "
The black figure did not reply. Instead, he activated the array even more. The red light around them grew brighter, carrying with it a frightening aura. Even the people outside the array felt their divine souls waver. They retreated several feet.
Everyone's heart jumped. What kind of array was this? Even divine beings could not get close to it.
Lonemoon's heart clenched. He thought about how the remnant souls of Chef and the others could be in this person's hands. He turned to the person beside him. "Shen Ying, you …"
He was just about to ask her to attack when Shen Ying seemed to realize something. She turned to Bai Ze and asked, "Furball, what's the use of the Soul Suppressing Pearl?"
Bai Ze paused, then answered, "Of course it's to stabilize divine souls …"
"Is it that?" She suddenly pointed below.
Everyone lowered their heads to take a look. Sure enough, a pearl was faintly discernible around the black shadow's body. They did not notice it earlier because the Yin Qi was too thick. Now that they looked closer, they saw that the pearl was emitting faint God Power. It was the Soul Suppressing Pearl. Someone who could use God Power to stabilize souls was definitely not a ghost immortal.
Could this person be …
"Qian Yue!"
The few of them shouted in unison.
