saint of humanity

Chapter 2861 Jin Yao

Jin Yao didn't know why the power of the Soul-Calming Bell was madly weakening. What puzzled her even more was that as the power of this treasure weakened, her own soul seemed to be undergoing some unspeakable changes.

It was as if an inexplicable connection had been established between him and Lu Ye.

This change made her uneasy, but at the moment she had no other means available except to continue to activate the power of the treasure.

As time passed, the enormous pressure on Lu Ye's soul body slowly dissipated. This was undoubtedly due to the drastic reduction in the power of the Soul-Suppressing Bell.

At this moment, Jin Yao finally stopped, knowing in her heart that it was meaningless to continue like this. When she first started, the Soul-Suppressing Bell was at its strongest. She failed to suppress Lu Ye's soul then, and it was even more impossible now.

Forcing it will only make yourself more embarrassed.

She looked at Lu Ye with deep eyes and sighed, "It is true that every generation has its own talents. Well, I have been struggling for so many years and have long anticipated the end of today. It is time to be free."

Having said this, she actually sat down cross-legged, closed her eyes and concentrated.

Lu Ye did not let his guard down. Although Jin Yao looked as if she had accepted her fate, who knew if she was just pretending, so it was better to be cautious.

But what surprised him was that Jin Yao did not make any other moves until the soul-calming bell in her hand turned into powder and disappeared.

It was at this time that Jin Yao, who had kept her eyes closed, slowly opened them and looked at Lu Ye deeply: "Young man, this place is dead and empty. I'm afraid you will be alone for a long time in the future. I hope you can get used to it slowly."

She could feel that with the disappearance of the soul-calming bell, she seemed to be returning somewhere, and she felt dazed. This might be the feeling before the soul is torn apart.

After she finished speaking, her soul involuntarily turned into a stream of light, flew towards Lu Ye's body, and disappeared in an instant.

Lu Ye hurriedly checked the talent tree.

Another fruit grew on the talent tree, which was the precious Soul-Calming Bell Fruit.

He used a part of his mind to gently call out to the fruit: "Daoyou, Daoyou Jinyao..."

Through the previous incident of refining the black coffin, he was able to confirm that if the treasure that was refined and devoured had intelligence, that intelligence could be preserved on the talent tree.

However, the situation of the Soul-Calming Bell is somewhat different from that of normal treasures, so he doesn't know whether it will be the same as the black coffin after being refined this time.

With a call, a figure suddenly floated out from the Soul-Calming Bell Fruit. She was tall and slender, who else could it be but Jin Yao.

She was obviously a little dazed at the moment, her expression was extremely blank, she looked around, and her pupils contracted violently!

She could hardly believe her eyes.

There was a huge tree shining with golden light, with leaves burning with flames. Her soul seemed as small as an ant among the treetops.

The tree was filled with a mysterious aura that made her intoxicated.

What shocked her even more was that she actually sensed many different auras of precious treasures from this tree.

Following the scent, she immediately saw treasures of different shapes hanging on the tree like fruits.

One, two, three...there are as many as seven or eight in total.

Her soul-calming bell was among them!

Even though she was well-informed, she was still so shocked that she could not calm down.

He stared blankly for a long moment, then slowly turned his head and looked at Lu Ye's split mind: "What is this? What happened to me?"

She thought she would die, but she turned out to be fine. However, the current situation made her feel confused.

She could feel that she could still mobilize the power of the Soul-Calming Bell and she was still the owner of this treasure, but under this premise, both herself and the Soul-Calming Bell had a deeper bond with the wonderful tree in front of them. This bond was far deeper than the bond between her and the Soul-Calming Bell, and was at an earlier stage in the sequence.

And...why are there so many treasures here?

She had never heard of anyone who could collect so many treasures.

Just like when she was at her peak, she only had three treasures in her hands. Firstly, it was extremely difficult to refine and subdue the treasures. Secondly, refining the treasures would place a certain burden on the cultivator's body and mind. If one refined too many treasures, not only would his strength not be improved, but it would be damaged.

But there are more than three treasures hanging on the tree?

How could this young man in front of me bear it?

"Dao Tree! Fellow Daoist, you can regard it as my inheritance. As for you... Fellow Daoist, you should be able to feel your own situation." Lu Ye spoke slowly.

Jin Yao was silent.

She could indeed feel her own situation, after all, her intelligence was intact. Now that the Soul-Calming Bell appeared on this tree, she, as the spirit of the Soul-Calming Bell, had a vague feeling of being controlled.

It seems that as long as the young man in front of him is willing, he can activate the power of the Soul-Calming Bell at will.

Dao Tree... She had never heard of it before, and how could it be so easy to refine a treasure? From the time she broke into Lu Ye's soul sea to the time the Soul-Suppressing Bell disappeared, it was only a few days.

It took her many years to refine the Soul-Calming Bell.

"You want to enslave me?" Jin Yao asked Lu Ye.

Lu Ye shook his head: "If you don't want to, you can destroy your soul. I won't force you, so it can't be considered slavery."

The spirit of this supreme treasure is different from the normal spirit of a supreme treasure. She is the transformation of the soul of a cultivator. Moreover, Jin Yao is the Tyrant Qiu of their era. She has such a proud character, how could she be willing to be enslaved?

So Lu Ye never thought of enslaving her.

However, this time it was Jin Yao who attacked him first. Even if she had no intention of destroying his soul, he had brought his current situation upon himself.

What he wanted was the soul-calming bell; it didn't matter whether Jin Yao's soul survived or not.

Jin Yao nodded slightly. Although she had prepared herself mentally for the possibility of death, who would want to die if she could live?

She had been wasting time here alone for who knows how many years, so naturally her desire to survive was very strong.

Seeing that Lu Ye's tone was gentle, she decided not to think about it anymore and stayed to see what was happening. If things didn't go as planned, she could destroy her soul later.

And...she was really curious about this tree.

As a result, he also developed a strong interest in Lu Ye.

Originally, she only thought that Lu Ye was one of the ten city lords, but now it seems that Lu Ye can never be just an ordinary ten city lords!

Are the young people nowadays so amazing?

After a brief chat with Jin Yao, Lu Ye ignored her. The Soul-Calming Bell had turned into fruit. From now on, his biggest shortcoming had been made up for. He was in a good mood and continued to move forward following that trace of sensation.

I secretly thought that it would be great if I could pick up a few more treasures.

Suddenly a figure flashed by, and it turned out to be Jin Yao.

Lu Ye was stunned.

How can this come out?

But speaking of it, this was the first treasure with complete spiritual intelligence refined by the Talent Tree, excluding the Black Coffin, so it was the first time he knew that the spiritual intelligence of a treasure could leave the Talent Tree in the form of a soul.

Jin Yao seemed to be in a good mood. Although she failed to achieve her original goal, no matter what the result was, she finally had a companion by her side.

And seeing that Lu Ye looks young and strong, he should be able to live for a very long time, so she will not be alone for a long time in the future.

"Fellow Daoist, I have something I want to ask you." Lu Ye asked casually when he had nothing to do.

"You ask." Jin Yao floated beside Lu Ye like a ghost.

"You were so strong when you were alive. Don't you know that you can't attack at will in the Hehe Realm? Why are you still trapped here?"

Since Jin Yao was the tyrant of that era, there was no reason for him to be so stupid.

Jin Yao sighed, her eyes flashing with memories, and after a few breaths she shook her head and said, "The past is too painful to look back on..."

The implication is that it’s better not to mention it!

Lu Ye suddenly lost interest in chatting with her.

"How did you get in?" Jin Yao asked back.

"Killed someone!"

Jin Yao was stunned: "Killed?"

"nature."

She was immediately shocked by Lu Ye's talent. You know, even when she took action in the Hehe Realm that year, she failed to kill the man. Instead, at the same time, she was swept here by a white light.

How did Lu Ye kill people?

The young people of this era are so terrifying!

There was a period of silence as my mood fluctuated.

After a long while, Jin Yao spoke again: "What are you looking for? You are not looking for the ultimate treasure, are you? There is no other ultimate treasure in this damn place. Not to mention the ultimate treasure, there is not even a single elemental treasure. Don't waste your energy."

"I'm looking for a way out." Lu Ye replied casually.

Jin Yao turned her head and looked at him, doubting her ears: "What are you looking for?"

He stared at Lu Ye for three breaths, making sure that what he heard was correct. He sighed and shook his head, saying, "Don't look for it. There is no way out of this place."

If there really was a way out, she would have found it long ago.

Lu Ye rolled his eyes and said, "What if I can find a way out?"

Jin Yao couldn't help but laugh: "If you can really find a way out, why not let me be at your service in the future?"

Lu Ye suddenly stood still: "We're here."

Jin Yao looked around, confused: "What's here?"

Lu Ye raised his hand and pointed forward: "The way out!"

As he pointed his finger, a ripple suddenly appeared in front of him. The ripple spread and slowly evolved into a portal.

Jin Yao stared blankly, her eyes dazed.

She had never known that there was a way out of this haunted place. What she saw today shocked her mind again and again. When she turned to look at Lu Ye, she saw that he was looking at her with a smile, and even that smile was full of mystery.

"How did you find it?" Jin Yao asked the question in her mind.

"Let's go!" Lu Ye called out. He couldn't tell her that the spirit of the Hedaozhu was in him and that he could find the portal only with the guidance of the spirit of the Hedaozhu.

Stepping into the door, Jin Yao hurriedly followed.

The vision is blurred.

When Lu Ye came back to his senses, he found that he had returned to the Hehe Realm.

And the location was actually in a courtyard.

Jin Yao was right beside him, her mind was spreading, sensing all around, and she murmured, "It really came out!"

For so many years, she had been trapped in that endless blank world, and she never thought that she would be able to walk out one day.

At this moment, it feels a little unreal. (End of this chapter)
