The soul tied to the pillar was none other than Chi Kong.
Yang Xuan quietly looked at him, not saying a word.
After seeing Yang Xuan's appearance, Chi Kong's eyes opened wider and wider.
At this moment, his eyes were filled with disbelief and shock. There was even fear.
"You … you, Bai Qi, you're not dead?" he cried out in horror.
Yang Xuan let out a long sigh and approached Chi Kong, who was tied to the pillar.
Chi Kong's eyes were still wide open, and his face was filled with disbelief.
Yang Xuan reached out to touch the chains, but he was pushed away by a cold force.
"What happened? How did you get here? How did you end up like this? Where are the others? "Yang Xuan finally asked the question in his heart.
The former number one Holy Son, Chi Kong, was silent for a long time before he barely suppressed his shock and helplessness from seeing an old friend, and he said with a bitter smile, "I didn't expect that after traversing a myriad of starry skies, you would actually be in such a ghastly appearance when I see you again.
Yang Xuan was also filled with emotions, but he could only sigh when he heard this.
The true meaning behind this was more than just fate making fools of people.
"How did you get here?" Yang Xuan asked.
"It's a long story!" Chi Kong sighed and said, "After the accident with the Heaven-splitting Ship, I fell into a coma. When I woke up, I found myself in a strange place."
After a pause, he continued, "At that time, I pretended to be mute for a year before I realized that I had been saved by a passing human merchant ship. After that, it took me a long time to figure out where I was. "
Chi Kong sighed endlessly.
Yang Xuan could imagine the confusion and helplessness he felt when he first arrived.
Chi Kong continued, "After that, I became a disciple of a local alchemist master. I learned alchemy and martial arts at the same time. After many years, my master died in an accident, and I left that place. Then, I came to the Ninth Imperial Guard and joined the Alchemist General Bureau."
He said it very simply, but Yang Xuan could feel the difficulty in his words!
How could Yang Xuan not understand the loneliness of being in a foreign land with no one he knew beside him?
"How did you end up like this?" Yang Xuan asked.
Chikong subconsciously shrank his body and recalled, "Previously, I had a mission, so I left the Ninth Imperial Guard and went to an uninhabited planet called the Quzhou Star. On that planet, I found a huge statue with a golden heart in its hand, exuding an endless majesty! Out of curiosity, I went closer to take a look. As a result, I fell unconscious. When I woke up, I found myself tied up here. "
A golden heart?
Yang Xuan narrowed his eyes!
Could it be the heart of the Great Emperor?
"Did you see what the heart looked like?" he asked.
"No, I lost consciousness as soon as I got close." Chi Kong shook his head.
Yang Xuan had a strange look in his eyes. After a moment of silence, he changed the topic and asked, "You don't know what happened after that?"
Chi Kong had a strange look on his face, "What happened?"
Yang Xuan stared at him for a long time before slowly saying, "You killed nine people!"
Chi Kong was very surprised, even shocked. He almost cried out, "How is that possible? I've been locked up here all this time!"
Yang Xuan was silent for a moment before asking, "Do you know where this is?"
Chi Kong was stunned and shook his head, "I don't know?"
"This is your sea of consciousness. At this moment, you're just a soul!" Yang Xuan said directly.
Chi Kong was so shocked that his mouth opened wide enough to stuff a few eggs.
Ignoring everything else, Yang Xuan recounted what had happened in the outside world.
After listening, Chi Kong fell into a daze.
After a long time, he let out a long sigh.
"So, I'm a person who should have died long ago." He smiled bitterly, even in despair.
Yang Xuan also sighed, "You've been locked up here all this time. So, the you outside is definitely not you, but someone else!"
Chi Kong also thought of this point. He shook his head blankly and said, "But I don't know anything."
The two of them talked for a while, but there was no result. Yang Xuan tried to shake the chain that was submerged in the void, but there was still no result.
Although his Divine Sense was powerful, he didn't know what the chain was made of. Not only was it protected by an invisible force, but it was also abnormally tough. He couldn't shake it at all.
Chi Kong's face was full of despair, "Am I hopeless?"
Yang Xuan stopped what he was doing and stared at Chi Kong for a long time. Suddenly, he said, "The Chi Kong I know isn't like this!"
Chi Kong was stunned and looked at Yang Xuan with some confusion.
Yang Xuan took two steps back and said, "The Chi Kong I know has a kind of power on him!"
"What kind of power?" Chi Kong asked, puzzled.
"That kind of power is called free and easy, called indifference, called perseverance." Yang Xuan said word by word.
Chi Kong was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and lowered his head, muttering, "People change."
"If people don't save themselves, even the heavens won't be able to save them."
"How can I save myself?" Chi Kong's face was full of desolation.
Yang Xuan's body began to fade, "You stay here for now. I'll think of a way."
As soon as his voice fell, his Divine Sense retreated like a tide, leaving behind a desolate Chi Kong.
After withdrawing his Divine Sense, Yang Xuan looked at the unconscious Chi Kong in the iron cage. His eyes narrowed slightly, then he turned around and left.
After returning to his room, he recalled Chi Kong's description. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was talking about the Great Emperor's Heart.
In the Great Emperor's Inheritance, the Great Emperor's Heart had been taken away and its whereabouts were unknown.
If the Great Emperor's Heart on Planet Quzhou was really the Great Emperor's Heart, then if he could get it, he would have both the Great Emperor's Heart and the Great Emperor's Bone at the same time!
At that time, by relying on the connection between the Great Emperor's Heart and the Great Emperor's Bone, he might be able to break through and step into the Great Ascension Stage!
As he thought of this, his eyes lit up.
The next day, he found Jing Hu and said directly, "Mister Jing Hu, I want to go to the place where he carried out his mission!"
Jing Hu didn't even raise his head, "I've already sent people there many times, but they didn't find anything!"
Yang Xuan was unmoved, "I want to investigate again."
Jing Hu saw that Yang Xuan was insistent, so he didn't object, "That's fine. There's a mission in that direction. Originally, it was for someone else. If you want to go to Planet Quzhou, it's on the way!"
"What mission?" Yang Xuan asked.
"It's not a big deal. It's just sending a bottle of medicine over. It's waiting to be used." After a pause, he said, "Originally, it was going to be sent by the Alliance, but the spacecraft on our line broke down and the service was suspended. So, we can only take the interstellar flight there ourselves."
Jing Hu explained a little, then took out a small jade bottle and gave it to Yang Xuan. Then, he told Yang Xuan the destination and the mission target.
After that, Jing Hu said, "You must be careful this time. I don't want to have another research subject here."
Jing Hu meant well. Yang Xuan naturally understood that Jing Hu meant well. This time, he was going to try his luck and might not necessarily gain anything.
After leaving Jing Hu's office, Yang Xuan thought about it and decided not to return to the dormitory. Instead, he turned around and went out the door, flying directly to the flight station.
