Sun Yuan panted heavily. For the first time, he felt that it was a blessing to be able to breathe.
Even he broke out in a cold sweat when he thought of the danger he had just been in.
Whether it was the willpower of his previous life or the evil demon, Taiyi, they could have easily killed him in the sea of consciousness.
The reason why he could survive until the end was not because the sandpiper and the clam were fighting each other, but because his previous life had spared him.
To be more specific, when he was sure that he could only perish together with that willpower, the willpower of his previous life took the initiative to protect him.
At this point, Sun Yuan's expression became extremely complicated.
In the next moment, he got to his feet and felt a heart-wrenching pain in his body.
"Damn it, I remember that my body was strengthened once, and now it's all gone …"
He mumbled, "No matter what, it's good that I can survive! But … how do I get out? "
The city under the capital was dead silent. It did not seem like there were any living creatures, and there was not a trace of green.
Obviously, a mortal would not be able to survive in such a city.
"How do I get out? This is not just an underground relic, but an alternate space … If I want to get out, I'm afraid I can only use spells. Ah! "
As soon as Sun Yuan thought of curses, he suddenly clutched his forehead.
He was shocked to find that he could not use any of his mental power anymore.
Perhaps it was the sequela of the battle between the two powerhouses in the sea of consciousness, which caused his mental power to be severely damaged!
Even the magical "Classic of Mountains and Seas" could not be sensed anymore.
"I … I've lost my ability to use spells, and I've become … an ordinary person?"
Sun Yuan had a complicated feeling in his heart.
Although the power of curses often came with great consequences and a price, it was still a supernatural power after all!
It was indeed a pity to lose it.
Not to mention … he was still in the city under the capital, and without spells, he could not leave.
He might be trapped here until he died.
"No … I can't lose hope. I need to find a variable … This time, apart from me and the people from the Longevity Sect, that Chung Shen Soo is also here. If I find him, he might be able to find a way out. Even if he can't, I can teach him spells and let him take me out! Also … there might be some remaining cursemancers in the Immortal Church … "
Half a day later.
Just as Sun Yuan rummaged through a large number of buildings and, as expected, did not find any food or water. Just as he was about to fall into despair, he finally saw a figure.
"Great, I've finally found you."
He quickly ran over and saw that it was Chung Shen-soo.
At this time, Chung Shen-soo was looking at a mural, seemingly admiring it.
"So it's you …"
Chung Shen-soo nodded without much surprise.
"You … didn't meet anyone from the [Longevity Sect]?" Although Sun Yuan had confirmed that this person was not the leader of the Longevity Sect, Chung Shen Soo had become more and more mysterious in his mind.
"I didn't. After I fell here, I fell into these prehistoric treasures and couldn't extricate myself … After all, I'm a Scholar of Yore …"
Chung Shen-soo smiled and pointed at the mural. "Look …"
Sun Yuan looked at the mural and saw that it depicted a battlefield, a looming giant mountain in the sky, and … a gate.
"This should be a depiction of the greatest change in the cultivation world during the era of Emperor Shenwu of Yan Han — the Forbidden Heaven Passage!"
Chung Shen-soo sighed and said, "In prehistoric times, gods walked on the earth. In ancient times, cultivators were free and unfettered in the human world. But after the Forbidden Heaven Passage, cultivation became extinct. Immortals ascended to heaven, and gods were ethereal … The only thing left in the human world was the Gourd Heaven."
"The Gourd Heaven?" Sun Yuan thought of Chung Shen-soo's mysteriousness. "How do you know so much about it?"
"Could it be that this person is the human cultivator from the Gourd Heaven?"
"There's a hint on the mural!"
Chung Shen-soo pointed at the corner of the mural. There was indeed a gourd mark on it, and there were some notes in ancient characters beside it.
Sun Yuan looked at it for a while and nodded. Then, he was puzzled. "Then why … can I master the power of curses now? Could it be that … the Spiritual Qi has recovered?"
This was a concept that he had only understood because he liked to read online novels.
"No … the Spiritual Qi has never recovered in this world."
Chung Shen-soo shook his head and said, "Prehistoric cultivation of gods, ancient cultivation of immortals … Now, we can only rely on the power of curses to cultivate our own spirituality … This is a completely different system! Or rather … a power that is the complete opposite of the ancient path of immortals … The ancient immortals had a long lifespan and did not have to worry about cultivation deviation at all times, while the curses cultivators are constantly accompanied by danger and madness … "
Sun Yuan suddenly found it difficult to breathe.
He felt that the current Chung Shen-soo had probably sensed something through the mural.
In fact, his spirit might even be on the verge of insanity!
"Don't think too much about it. What we need to focus on now is how to get out … This is a different space. Only by using the power of curses can we open the door to get out …"
Sun Yuan felt that there were many things in his mind. He did not know whether they were memories of his previous life or Taiyi.
However, when he encountered a critical moment, the information of the past would gush out like spring water.
"I'll teach you a curse. Whether you can get out or not depends on you."
…
Kunwu City.
In a deserted street.
As if an invisible door had been opened, the void began to fluctuate.
Blurry light and shadows formed the shape of a semi-circular arch.
Two silhouettes walked out of it.
"This is … the real world. We're finally out."
Sun Yuan's face was filled with excitement.
He looked at the buildings on both sides with a strange expression. "But … how did we end up in the city?"
"A difference of a millimeter in space could mean a difference of thousands of miles in reality. I think it's very normal."
Chung Shen-soo nodded.
"Yes, the key is still you. I didn't expect you to succeed on your first try."
Sun Yuan looked at Chung Shen-soo. "What's wrong? You're not going to hide it anymore? You … have long been a curses cultivator, haven't you? What's your purpose in entering the imperial capital? "
As he spoke, he gave off a cold aura.
However, Sun Yuan stared at Chung Shen-soo for a long time and suddenly laughed. "Forget it … you don't have to tell me, because I don't care anymore."
The current him was almost a useless person. He would no longer have the ability to use curses.
Since that was the case, why should he care so much?
Wouldn't it be better to live a peaceful life as an ordinary person?
"Then … goodbye. I'm going back to Tianxing City to continue my studies. Fortunately, I'm in the fourth year of internship. Otherwise, the counselor will kill me after disappearing for so long …"
Sun Yuan waved his hand, walked out of the alley, and blended into the crowd.
