The black-robed man secretly complained. If he could go back a few years, he wouldn't feel afraid of Ning Cheng.
"Your Grey Toottoot isn't with me. Someone took it away." The black-robed man spoke up anxiously. When Ning Cheng brought out the Time Wheel and suppressed him with a powerful domain, he understood that he wasn't Ning Cheng's opponent. As Ning Cheng's domain grew stronger, he couldn't resist at this moment.
Hearing that someone took away Grey Toottoot, Ning Cheng's killing intent immediately surged up. The domain overflowed with murderous intent, and it suppressed the black-robed skeleton to the point of suffering.
The black-robed man's cultivation had already fallen a lot. Now that Ning Cheng's powerful killing intent suppressed him, he found it difficult to even speak.
"Don't do it. If you kill me, you won't be able to find your companion beast." The black-robed man knew that this was his only chance of survival.
Ning Cheng took in a deep breath and forcibly suppressed his killing intent before asking coldly, "Who took away Grey Toottoot? What is this place? Is it the underworld? "
Ning Cheng felt that this black-robed man didn't seem to be lying. However, he had already sealed the Ancient Shadow Temple. Who else could come to this place?
Feeling Ning Cheng restraining his killing intent, the black-robed man secretly breathed a sigh of relief and spoke up with a worried voice, "I can tell you all this, but you have to promise to spare me once."
Ning Cheng sneered, "You're not qualified to bargain with me. If you don't say it, I can kill you right now. But if you say it, your life and death will depend on my mood."
When the black-robed man heard Ning Cheng's words, his voice turned shrill, "Then you can kill me right now. I'd rather die than tell you."
"Since you want to die, then I'll fulfill your wish. I'll search your soul first and then destroy your spirit soul." After Ning Cheng finished speaking, the Celestial Rainbow Purgatory Spear turned into a substantial spear intent.
When the black-robed man heard the words' soul search 'and' spirit soul destruction ', he no longer felt that shrill. Instead, he quickly called out, "You have to at least allow me to reincarnate before I tell you."
Ning Cheng knew that he couldn't search the soul of a cultivator at the level of the black-robed man. But now that the black-robed man said that he would allow him to reincarnate, Ning Cheng thought about it and said, "Okay, in any case, I won't let your Spiritual Soul perish. I will allow you to reincarnate."
The black-robed man fully understood Ning Cheng's ruthlessness and determination at this moment. But with his current cultivation, he couldn't compete with Ning Cheng at all. Therefore, he had no choice but to give in. "This isn't the real underworld. Someone built this place to simulate the first bridge of the underworld to cultivate a spirit technique. That person spent a lot of effort, but could only build the First Bridge of Coping. He no longer had the ability to build the second bridge. "
"The second bridge? What kind of Spiritual Technique is this? "Ning Cheng felt a little curious. This place looked so vast and had spent so much effort on it, but it was actually built by someone else to simulate the Yin World for the purpose of cultivating divine abilities.
The black-robed man replied, "The person who built this place is called Zhong Wuchen, and the spiritual technique he wants to cultivate is called the Seven Bridges. The Seven Bridges Spiritual Technique is the First Bridge of Coping, the Second Bridge of Looking Home, the Third Bridge of Forgetting River, the Fourth Bridge of Yellow Springs, the Fifth Bridge of Reincarnation, the Sixth Bridge of Other Shore, and the Seventh Bridge of Reincarnation. It's a peerless spirit technique. I've stayed here for thousands of years, but I still couldn't cultivate the First Bridge of Coping, let alone the Seven Bridges Spiritual Technique. "
Ning Cheng felt a little shocked. If the First Bridge of this spirit technique was so terrifying, then what kind of great spirit technique would it be if one successfully cultivated it? How many lives did this Zhong Wuchen kill to build the First Bridge of Coping? If he encountered this Seven Bridges Spiritual Technique, how long could he resist it?
The black-robed man didn't know what Ning Cheng was thinking about and continued, "Zhong Wuchen built the First Bridge of Coping here. After cultivating for countless years, he realised that he couldn't cultivate the real Seven Bridges Spiritual Technique here. But after he left, he left behind some things. One of the Yin Souls developed spiritual wisdom after obtaining these things and finally became a ghost cultivator.
The Ancient Shadow Temple is a place that absorbs Yin Souls. Therefore, the Ancient Shadow Temple absorbs the Yin Souls of countless fallen cultivators and provides them to that ghost cultivator for cultivation. That ghost cultivator saw Zhong Wuchen cultivating the Seven Bridges Spiritual Technique, and he also started cultivating the Seven Bridges Spiritual Technique here. Although that ghost cultivator only knew a little bit about it, he managed to cultivate it to a decent level. "
"Then how did you get here? Where did that ghost cultivator go? "Seeing Grey Toottoot being taken away, Ning Cheng's tone revealed some disappointment.
The black-robed man replied, "I accidentally found the Ancient Shadow Temple and came to this place. That ghost cultivator controlled me and asked me to help him collect the Yin Souls that couldn't cross the Coping Bridge. The Yin Qi in this place is too heavy, and after a long time, my cultivation not only didn't improve, but also started to fall. I could only change my cultivation method and start using Yin Souls to cultivate. Fortunately, that ghost cultivator didn't want low-level Yin Souls at all. As long as he wanted high-level Yin Souls, my cultivation gradually rose. "
As the black-robed man spoke until here, he seemed to have fallen into the scene of being controlled by the ghost cultivator. "I helped the ghost cultivator capture all kinds of Yin Souls here endlessly. I can only cultivate for a while in between. Fortunately, my aptitude is very good. Even so, my cultivation is constantly improving. Later, that ghost cultivator felt that the Yin Souls in this place were too low-level. He asked me to attract cultivators with high cultivation and took five treasures ….. "
When Ning Cheng heard this, he understood a bit more, and then asked, "You mean to say that you were the one who placed the five treasures in the pentagonal hall?"
The black-robed man nodded, "Yes, that ghost cultivator forced me to put them in. It's just that the method to control the pentagonal hall and the array formations of the Earth Gate fell into the hands of that ghost cultivator. Although I put those things in, I couldn't get them back by myself. " Those things attracted many top-level cultivators to the ghost cultivator. The ghost cultivator then devoured the essence spirits of those top-level cultivators and put those things in.
Until one day, I found a Soul Suppressing Card on a Yin Soul. When the ghost cultivator absorbed the Yin Souls for cultivation, I suddenly took action and used this Soul Suppressing Card to suppress the ghost cultivator. My cultivation was too different from that ghost cultivator. Although I managed to suppress him, the two of us still ended up in a stalemate. Moreover, the array formations of the entire Ancient Shadow Temple were still under the control of that ghost cultivator. "
"How did Grey Toottoot come in?" Ning Cheng asked again.
The black-robed man replied, "It's because of a Heaven Cloud Ganoderma that had developed some spiritual wisdom. Grey Toottoot found that Heaven Cloud Ganoderma. That Heaven Cloud Ganoderma fled into the Ancient Shadow Temple, and Grey Toottoot chased after it. Because I found that Grey Toottoot wasn't simple, I lured it in. Speaking of which, that ghost cultivator also helped me a lot. If he hadn't opened the array formations, I wouldn't have been able to lure Grey Toottoot inside.
After knowing that Grey Toottoot had a trace of Zhu Fang's bloodline, I tried to force that trace of bloodline out through various means, but to no avail. "
Ning Cheng's killing intent grew even stronger. No wonder that ghost soldier caught Grey Toottoot on the Futility Bridge. It turned out that he wanted to force out Grey Toottoot's bloodline.
"A few years ago, a group of you entered the Ancient Shadow Temple and even came to the Yellow Spring Pond. Because the ghost cultivator didn't cooperate, he deliberately let the people who entered the Life and Death Gate break the barrier. I had to stop those people from escaping, which consumed a lot of my energy. Plus, you took away the Measureless Gourd, which I valued the most. That's why I chased after you in a hurry. "
At this point, the black-robed man's eyes filled with regret.
"In the end, that ghost cultivator broke free, didn't he?" Ning Cheng asked in a cold voice. He finally understood why Chuan Xinlou and the others could come out after getting trapped. It turned out that someone had intentionally let them go. In other words, Striking Order and the others might not have fallen.
The black-robed man sighed, "Yes, that ghost cultivator took the opportunity to break free from the Soul Suppressing Tablet. He also fought against me, severely injured me, and then snatched away Grey Toottoot. He had a Breaking Boundary Talisman, so I couldn't catch up to him. "
Ning Cheng guessed that this black-robed man didn't lie. His strength had indeed fallen a lot.
"You know about the Seven Bridges Spirit Technique and Zhong Wuchen. Did that ghost cultivator tell you about it?" Ning Cheng stared at the black-robed man.
"Yes, that's what he told me." The black-robed man could feel Ning Cheng's strong murderous intent. He knew that he couldn't survive today and didn't even bother to beg for mercy. He could only hope that Ning Cheng would keep his promise and allow him to reincarnate.
"What's the name of that ghost cultivator?"
"His name is Ling Zhi."
"That Zhong Wuchen built a mystic realm outside the Ancient Shadow Temple. Did he want to let cultivators come in for a trial, and then take the opportunity to extract their souls?"
"Yes, but later he felt that the cultivators who came in for the trial were too low-levelled, so he sealed the Ancient Shadow Temple."
After asking these questions, the Celestial Rainbow Purgatory Spear's Spear Intent, which had been locked onto the black-robed man, suddenly burst out and instantly turned the black-robed man into slag. Ning Cheng still kept his promise and allowed the black-robed man to reincarnate with a wisp of his soul.
Although he had never met Zhong Wuchen, Ning Cheng knew that he was a ruthless person. To cultivate a spirit technique, he not only built a mystic realm, but he also built the Hell's Gate, the Yellow Spring Pond, the Life and Death Gate, the Bridge of Coping … …
From this, one could imagine how many souls had fallen here to form such a heavy yin qi. Otherwise, even if Zhong Wuchen's attainments in array formations had reached a high level, he couldn't have arranged the violent yin wind that could tear apart Eternal cultivators.
No wonder it was covered in snow all year round outside Covered Snow City. With such heavy yin qi in this place, it would have been strange if there was no snow.
After killing the black-robed cultivator, Ning Cheng began to destroy everything under the Ancient Shadow Temple. Although Ning Cheng couldn't arrange those array formations, it didn't take him much effort to destroy them. The most powerful function of the Time Wheel was destruction. As the Time Wheel blasted out, Ning Cheng destroyed not only the fake First Bridge of Coping but also the Yellow Spring Pond, the Life and Death Gate, the pitch-black public square, and the pentagonal hall.
After Ning Cheng destroyed these places and array formations, the yin qi began to dissipate. Ning Cheng felt sure that as long as a few years passed, the yin qi in this place would dissipate completely.
After doing all this, Ning Cheng sealed the real Ancient Shadow Temple's gate. As for the trial grounds outside the Ancient Shadow Temple, Ning Cheng left them intact.
After leaving the Ancient Shadow Temple again, Ning Cheng felt completely relieved. He hadn't found Grey Toottoot yet, but the threat of the Ancient Shadow Temple had been removed.
That Zhong Wuchen was simply a madman. To cultivate a spirit technique, he actually built such a huge place here.
Seven Bridges Spirit Technique, it sounded quite scary, but Ning Cheng didn't know what it was. Just as he thought of this, Ning Cheng suddenly stopped.
Seven Bridges Spirit Technique? He had obtained a wordless book from the Formless Sect, which also had seven pages. Over the past few years, when he went into seclusion in the Mysterious Yellow Sect, he had tried to refine it a little. However, he only knew that this book was called the Seven Bridges Realm Book. After that, he couldn't refine it. Were these two Seven Bridges related?
