In the center of the city, Mo You was still working hard. She didn't slack off at all. However, she knew that the person who was spying on this place was still nearby. He had even changed directions and snuck into the edge of the pit. He had been carefully observing the situation and hadn't left at all.
Xiao Fang, who knew about this, was also doing his own thing like Mo You. It was as if he didn't know that there was an enemy.
At this moment, she saw Elder Gu and Qian Han walking towards her from the corner of her eye. After putting down the things in her hands, she walked towards them.
"Qian Han, you go ahead. Help me find a few people to handle this matter. Sorry to trouble you," Elder Gu said to Qian Han.
"It just so happens that Fei will be back soon. Let him be in charge of this matter." Qian Han nodded slightly as a promise to Elder Gu.
"Do your best. If you really can't, don't take too much risk. She's at that place. You can find her anytime." Seeing that Qian Han had agreed, Elder Gu heaved a sigh of relief. She didn't have to worry about Hua Ying.
"Since that's the case, I'll go now. The situation outside changes too quickly. It's better to leave early." Qian Xing nodded. After seeing that Elder Gu had agreed, he left Elder Gu and walked out.
Ever since she started working with Elder Gu, she had been dealing with them as an external spirit. Her status wasn't low to begin with. Now, her status had skyrocketed. She could be said to be the second most important person. She was the one who brought the Lake of Birth to the external spirit. To the external spirit, any price was worth it.
Now, the external spirit was still immersed in that place. It couldn't do without Shan Long's help. These things didn't need to be discussed. He would help too.
"Elder Gu, it's almost done here. When will you arrange for me to carry out the next task?" Mo You came in front of Elder Gu and asked directly.
"Let me check. Follow me first."
Elder Gu had her hands behind her back. She seemed to be checking the surroundings. In fact, Elder Gu was asking about Mo You. She inadvertently scanned the hidden place. However, in her senses, she didn't sense anything. It was as if there was nothing there.
"Elder Gu, the other party left."
Mo You didn't wait for her to check the surroundings before speaking.
"Did the other party come here before?" Hearing Mo You's words, Elder Gu loosened his restraints and checked the key points he had left behind. After confirming that the other party hadn't entered, he heaved a sigh of relief.
"No, I didn't sense them before. They must be from Yao Hun's side. Although they are good at hiding, my perception is stronger," Mo You said proudly.
"Then what are they doing here? Can you tell from their actions?" Elder Gu asked carefully.
"I don't know. However, I can sense that the other party doesn't seem to have any intention of destroying this place. It feels more like they are just observing," Mo You said.
"Since the other party is alone, he probably isn't very strong. It's right for him to not show himself. However, what is the other party's intention? Come with me and take a look around the city. See if we can find any traces of him, "Elder Gu said after pondering for a moment.
She didn't know what the other party's purpose was this time. It was very likely that they were here to investigate after their previous failure and to prepare for their next attack. However, she couldn't rule out other possibilities.
Then, Mo You followed behind Elder Gu and began to wander around the city aimlessly. However, after wandering around for a while, they still couldn't find any traces of the other party. In the end, they could only assume that the other party had left.
What troubled Elder Gu was that the other party could only be sensed by Mo You. Even she couldn't sense the other party's existence. It was only after Mo You reminded her that she thought of a solution.
In the entire city, only the city gate facing the back was open. All the other gates were closed. As long as the other party dared to enter, he would definitely be discovered by Mo You, who was stationed there.
As for the other party flying in from the outside, she wasn't worried at all. There was a layer of defense in the air that was enough to trap the other party.
"Where did the other party go?"
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. During these two days, Elder Gu's attention was also on the other party. However, he didn't appear again. Hua Ying and the others had already left. She brought Mo You and secretly followed them, but they couldn't find any traces of the other party.
"Has the other party left?" Mo You asked Elder Gu, who had just arrived, from a hidden place near the city gate.
"Perhaps. Only the place in the middle is valuable. There's no place for the other party to take the risk." Elder Gu couldn't figure it out either. Perhaps the other party had discovered the situation here and knew that he had been exposed. He had already left and wasn't prepared to remove the seal. They had to start mobilizing and preparing. Those sleeping puppets had to be awakened one by one.
"I think so too. The other party wouldn't be so stupid to go to the Outer Soul Realm. You have to know that most of the Outer Soul Realm's people are stationed there. There's also the Golden Dragon there," Mo You said with certainty.
"If the other party's cultivation is above Zenith Heaven," Elder Gu suddenly said.
"Isn't there the Golden Dragon? The other party is so powerful. If he dared to appear, he would have swallowed the other party whole." Mo You had been there a few times and naturally knew how powerful the other party was. He was even more powerful than Elder Gu.
"What if Lord Shan Long is in a state of metamorphosis and can't move?" Elder Gu suddenly said again.
"If the other party discovered that place, it's very likely that he would destroy it. Of course, it's also possible that the other party has already left. He can't possibly dare to create a ruckus alone. Isn't he afraid of death?" Mo You said with some disbelief.
"That's hard to say. Seal the city gate and follow me to take a look. Since we know that the other party is here, we can't rule out any accidents. We can take advantage of this opportunity. From what I see, Lord Shan Long should have completed his metamorphosis in two days," Elder Gu said immediately.
He knew that the Demon Soul had come once before and returned in defeat. However, what Mo You didn't know was that it was currently in its honeymoon period with the External Soul. The Lake of Birth was what connected them. If there were any other accidents, the two of them wouldn't be so close.
Although they didn't really need the help of the Outer Soul Realm, Shan Long was there. If there were any accidents, Elder Gu wouldn't forgive him. Not to mention, the Outer Soul Realm had a good relationship with Gu Zheng. He immediately gave the order to seal the only city gate. After all, there weren't any real subordinates here.
Just as Elder Gu hurried over with Mo You, the Snake Lady had already successfully infiltrated. Those Outer Souls weren't even at the Human Soul Realm. Even if she stood in front of them, they couldn't see her.
At this moment, she was looking at a ball of golden light in the distance with some fear. It was curled up like a golden egg. There was an aura inside that made her feel incomparable fear.
However, after a day of searching, she only felt relieved when she found that the other party was in a state of deep sleep.
She was able to discover this place by chance. She found the Black Temple that was still intact in the city. The other party seemed to be reburied in an even more concealed place. Unfortunately, she already knew about it, so it was useless.
After strolling around the city, she didn't find Lord Zhu Hun's pet. She knew that the other party had failed his mission and had probably met with misfortune. After leaving the city, she rested at the side and prepared to leave.
After such a long journey, she was exhausted. She didn't know what was going on in the city. After resting for a day, she was about to leave when she found Outer Souls on another level. This made her curious. On second thought, she thought that this might be one of the other party's strongholds. If she found it and reported it, it would be a great contribution.
She waited patiently for the other party. She didn't expect to see an even more shocking scene. A few Outer Souls were actually accompanying a Drawing Soul Realm junior as they left in a hurry.
It was impossible for a Drawing Soul Realm junior to leave the palace because they were too weak. It was easy for problems to arise. Moreover, the other party was colluding with the Outer Souls. There must be some unspeakable secret.
She didn't follow them. Instead, she followed an Outer Soul back. Following behind the other party, she discovered something even more shocking.
The Lake of Birth that had been abandoned had actually been used by the Drawing Soul Realm. They had even secretly given it to the Outer Souls to use. This was absolutely unforgivable.
She was about to leave after investigating. After all, these things weren't under her control. She was only here to gather information. However, when she saw the situation inside, she decided to take action and reseal the Lake of Birth.
She wasn't the one who sealed it. Instead, she was at the side. She looked at the Sealing Stone that had been used as a backup. It seemed like the Drawing Soul Realm wasn't completely tied to the Outer Souls. Otherwise, wouldn't the Sealing Stone be destroyed as well?
There was a layer of seal in the Sealing Stone. Back then, it was prepared to prevent the seal from being damaged. As long as it was broken, it would automatically reseal the lake. Of course, the frightening big fellow inside was also sealed. This was a seal that the Heavenly King had casually set up. It was many times stronger than the previous one.
Of course, before this, she didn't know that the big fellow was in a deep sleep. Even though she was confident in her talent, in order to prevent herself from being discovered by the other party, she took a day to get close. It was also because she was close that she discovered the other party's specific situation. This made her feel much more at ease.
Looking at the Sealing Stone that was close to her, it was an inverted stone pillar hanging from the wall. It didn't look any different from the surrounding stone pillars. She began to slowly accumulate power.
"Elder Gu, the other party has been here. I can vaguely sense the aura he left behind. Furthermore, he hasn't left yet."
Elder Gu, who was below, had already arrived at the hidden valley. When the Outer Souls saw that it was Elder Gu, they all smiled and greeted her. Elder Gu also kept nodding and smiling. At this moment, Mo You suddenly said to Elder Gu.
"Then this is the other party's tomb. How dare he come here."
Elder Gu had already sensed that everything inside was normal. She couldn't help but say as she relaxed. Then, she slowed down a little and began to set up a trap at the only entrance. At the same time, she told the other Outer Souls not to enter or leave first.
Just as he finished doing all this, the cave inside suddenly shook. A powerful aura suddenly burst out from inside, and it continued to strengthen.
"Lord Black Dragon!"
Elder Gu's expression changed. She immediately sped up and rushed inside. Mo You also hurriedly followed.
It wasn't just them. The other Outer Souls also gathered and rushed inside. One had to know that this was the most important place for the Outer Souls. It was also heavily guarded. How could something like this happen?
"What's going on?"
The shaking gradually subsided. Elder Gu was already squeezed inside. Seeing everything in front of her, she gritted her teeth and asked the people beside her.
"I don't know. We were just beside it when there was a sudden explosion. An irresistible force directly pushed us out. Then, we saw multicolored lights flashing continuously. In the end, it became like this." The Outer Soul beside her saw Elder Gu's gloomy expression and was also quite frightened. He hurriedly said.
At this moment, above the lake in front of them, a layer of multicolored light shrouded the entire lake. It firmly sealed the bottom of the lake. Not a single bit of aura was revealed.
"Why is there Wen Tianhou's aura here? Could it be that Wen Tianhou is here?" An Outer Soul said with some fear.
"Don't talk nonsense. If it was really him, we wouldn't be here." Without waiting for Elder Gu to speak, an Outer Soul upper echelon immediately reprimanded the other party to prevent him from disturbing them.
"I might know a little about this. In the past, I heard that there was a backup seal here. However, we couldn't find it after searching for it. It can only be said that someone has activated it." Another Outer Soul upper echelon said.
Hearing this, Elder Gu roughly understood what was going on. That sneaky fellow had obviously come here and destroyed this place. With the other party's methods of hiding, it was impossible to discover him.
"All of you, spread out. I want to find that fellow." Elder Gu's face was filled with anger. Then, she quickly retreated.
"If you haven't left, then don't ever leave."
Seeing that the trap that she had set up previously hadn't been triggered, Elder Gu knew that the other party hadn't left. She snorted coldly and reinforced the trap again. Then, she saw Mo You running over.
"You came at the right time. Come with me. Let's see where the other party is hiding."
"Okay."
Before Mo You ran into the cave, she saw Elder Gu running out. Although she didn't know what had happened, it definitely wasn't anything good. She immediately followed beside Elder Gu.
The passageway wasn't big, and there wasn't enough space for the other party to hide. Mo You followed behind him and kept looking around. The other souls had all retreated and were carefully searching the place where they were hiding.
They couldn't discover the other party, but they could rely on small attacks that had no blind spots. As long as there was an abnormality, they could completely discover the other party's existence.
Just like that, they slowly walked up until they reached the entrance of the cave. They didn't find any traces of the other party. Clearly, the other party had been inside and hadn't come out. No one would have thought that she hadn't left either. This made the other party even more confident that no one could discover her existence. That was why she was so fearless.
However, at this moment, Snake Girl sensed Elder Gu's actions outside. Only then did she focus her gaze on Mo You. The other party seemed to be able to discover her existence. This made her feel a little uneasy. She hid her body in an even more concealed place in the sky.
However, Elder Gu didn't enter directly. After chasing all the Outer Souls out, she began to set up at the entrance. She wanted the other party to be unable to escape.
Soon, a barrier rose and completely blocked the entrance. After putting a layer of defense on Mo You, the two of them walked in, leaving behind the Outer Souls outside who were waiting in anticipation. They were waiting for Elder Gu to deal with the other party and break the seal. The Lake of Birth was too important to them.
However, they didn't know that the world was about to change.
"Over there!"
Mo You scanned the front and didn't find any traces of the other party. Her heart thumped. She thought that the other party had left and her senses were wrong. However, when she raised her head, she sensed the other party's location and immediately shouted in surprise.
As Mo You pointed, an attack immediately flew out from Elder Gu's hand. The stone pillar in the air was immediately blown to pieces.
"The other party left. Over there." Mo You turned her finger and pointed to a corner in the distance.
"There, there!"
Snake Girl realized that no matter how she hid, she would be discovered by the other party. Then, an attack followed, forcing her to dodge back and forth. In the end, she realized that there was no way out. She changed herself and couldn't avoid the other party's detection. In the end, she fell from above and revealed her figure.
"You're finally willing to come out, you little rat!" Elder Gu looked at Snake Girl and said hatefully.
"If it wasn't for her, do you think you would have discovered me? But how did you discover me?" Snake Girl asked Mo You.
"Intuition!" Mo You looked at the other party warily and said.
She didn't discover the other party through other means. It could be said that it was her talent and intuition.
"Intuition? That's right, but I don't want to fight to the death with you. Goodbye! " Snake Girl jumped back and disappeared in front of Elder Gu again. At the same time, a special wave fluctuated in the air.
Elder Gu only sneered at the other party's actions and didn't stop her at all.
"What's going on!"
Snake Girl's body reappeared in the air and looked around in surprise.
"If you want to leave this place, you can only leave from the back entrance. Whatever escape method you have, or other spatial items, it won't work. Die!"
Elder Gu unsheathed his green sword and launched an attack at the Snake Lady.
Snake Girl knew that she had to fight with her life. At this moment, there was no way to regret it. She was forced to fight the other party.
The smart Mo You hid at the side and watched Elder Gu deal with the other party.
When Snake Girl saw Elder Gu, she knew that she was no match for her. However, she never expected that she would be suppressed from beginning to end. She shouted angrily and wanted to leave the battle, but Elder Gu wouldn't let her enter that strange state. She held her tightly and refused to let go.
In just half the time it took to brew a cup of tea, Snake Girl had already suffered heavy injuries. Her abdomen was pierced by a sword and her entire body was covered in green light. Even if she took the opportunity to leave the battle, she couldn't hide her figure.
"Die!"
With Elder Gu's many years of combat experience and rich experience, coupled with her cultivation, if she didn't suppress her, she would have lived all these years in vain.
"You're already heavily injured. Don't force me. If you force me, both of us will die together." Snake Girl didn't want to die here. If she knew that this place was so special, she wouldn't have come.
"Then let's die together."
Elder Gu was unmoved. She waved the weapon in her hand and charged forward again.
Snake Girl was forced to meet the other party and find an opportunity to escape. But no matter what, she found in despair that everything was under Elder Gu's control. All she could do was be slowly killed by the other party.
"Then let's die together!"
Snake Girl was decisive. Seeing that she couldn't escape, she took the initiative to meet the other party. At the same time, she opened her mouth and a snow-white light flew out and entered Elder Gu's chest at the same time the other party pierced her chest.
"Elder Gu!"
Mo You, who was in the distance, screamed and immediately ran over.
