Chapter 1028: Soul Hunting Truth, Taiwei Curse
"Gu Daoyou, how are you? Are you okay?"
"Quick, here are some pills from my Taihang Academy. Fellow Daoist, please take some to replenish your body."
"That eye just now scared me to death. I thought there was another monster coming to hunt down Brother Gu. Fortunately, Brother Gu, the Soul Hunter's pursuit was actually broken by you."
"Now that this has happened, Brother Gu, please come and visit our Taihang Academy."
"..."
The Soul Hunter's pursuit ended, the Bone Gate disappeared, and many of the Taihang Academy's disciples immediately surrounded Gu Xiu. Those who had elixirs gave them elixirs, and those who had spirit stones gave them spirit stones.
Shi, even though many people didn't actually know Gu Xiu, the series of battles just now had already made these academy disciples want to make friends with him.
Gu Xiu did not reject these people's kindness, but he still glanced at the disappeared bone gate from time to time.
The pair of eyes had clearly disappeared, but for some reason, he still had the feeling that he was being spied on. More importantly, Gu Xiu felt that the immortal platform in his own platform, which was made of immortal gate stone, was also shaking constantly, as if it wanted to do its best to help Gu Xiu and block the prying eyes.
Gu Xiu wanted to ask Demon Eye Guan Chen, who was hiding in his Baoshou Palace, what that thing was, but unfortunately, for some reason, no matter how he called out, Demon Eye Guan Chen seemed to have completely disappeared, and there was no response from beginning to end.
This reaction.
This made Gu Xiu a little frightened.
Fortunately.
Not long after, the feeling of being spied on disappeared, and even the Demon Eye Guanchen who had been pretending to be dead finally revived. However, the first sentence he said made Gu Xiu's eyelids twitch wildly:
"Boy, the next time the Soul Hunter arrives."
“You could die.”
Gu Xiu's eyelids twitched slightly, but he heard Demon Eye Guan Fan continue to speak:
"The Soul Hunter's power will grow as your cultivation level increases. Your performance this time has made the Soul Hunter realize that if they just treat you as a normal person, they will probably never be able to kill you. So next time, the one you need to face will definitely be even more powerful."
"even……"
"Maybe a soul hunter will take action."
"If your cultivation is limited to this, the next Soul Hunter we summon will surely be able to wipe you out."
Gu Xiu was puzzled by these words and couldn't help but ask the same question he had asked the woman in the sedan chair before: "What exactly is a Soul Hunter?"
"Haoyu is a cage. All the strong people in this world will be exiled to the Sanyuan Sea of Sin, but a small number of people will be hunted down by the Soul Hunters. What do you think the Soul Hunters are?" asked Demon Eye Guanfan.
Gu Xiu frowned and thought for a while: "Is it... the jailer?"
"The jailer?" Guan Fan seemed to smile. "That's not quite the right answer, but from your perspective, it's pretty close. The person who gave you the jade pendant is quite capable. He actually allowed you to turn a passive situation into an active one."
"It's certainly helping you, but it's also hurting you."
"Taking the initiative to control the Soul Hunter's appearance times can indeed prevent you from being attacked unexpectedly, but it will also make you more exposed to the eyes of those behind the scenes."
"The person behind the scenes?" Gu Xiu raised an eyebrow. "Who was that person who looked at me just now? You seem to be afraid of him too?"
"That person is... extremely hypocritical, but very important to you."
"Important person?" Gu Xiu's heart was beating wildly.
"You want to know more, but I can't tell you more. If you want to pursue the truth of all this, then you must become stronger. At least you have to block the next attack of the Soul Hunter..."
Guan Chen was speaking when he suddenly paused and then said, "That's not right."
"At least we have to solve the current problem first."
Ok?
Gu Xiu was surprised and looked sideways, only to see that the great scholar Tao Hong, who had already formed a big seal and was about to cover the magic pillar, was sweating profusely at this moment, as if he was fighting against some unimaginable and terrifying opponent. His face looked much uglier.
And it seemed that he had tried many times to seal the big seal, but he couldn't remove it.
"What's wrong?"
"What's going on? It seems that it's difficult to remove the seal of the great scholar Tao Hong?"
"Did the plan fail?"
Others also noticed this scene. According to the previous plan, the monsters in the Three Realms had been forced to retreat temporarily, and the great scholar Tao Hong could then seal their entrances and exits. Although it was only temporary, it could give Haoyu more time.
Can be biased.
The three spheres of monsters have all retreated, but the great scholar Tao Hong has never been able to complete this last step. It is obvious that something has gone wrong.
"What do you think that is?"
"Monsters! There are still three monsters, they haven't retreated!"
"Dead! These three monsters died on the battlefield!"
At this moment, someone with sharp eyes was the first to point out the three monster corpses no bigger than rice grains lying outside the magic pillar gate. They looked like mosquitoes and flies. Because they were too small, they seemed extremely inconspicuous in front of the magic seal. Even before in the chaotic battlefield, no one noticed them.
"There's a curse behind this monster attack. This is the power of the curse!"
"As for the curse, if I'm not mistaken, it should be that as much as comes out, so much must go back. Otherwise, the gate of Taiweiyuan will never be able to be closed by anyone!"
As expected, just as everyone was making their discovery, the great scholar Tao Hong spoke up, "The beings within must have anticipated our actions, so they set up this curse in advance and even deliberately sent out monsters like this, just to stop us from temporarily closing the door."
When these words came out, everyone's heart skipped a beat.
Cold sweat on my back.
They had thought that the people in the Three Realms Sea of Sin were all crazy monsters like the demons before, but now it seems that there are beings with extremely high intelligence standing behind the scenes and making arrangements in advance.
"Senior, is there any way to break the deadlock?" Gu Xiu asked.
Tao Hong didn't answer directly, but said in an explanatory tone: "As many as came out, so many must go back. Otherwise, the curse will remain. My seal will not fall, and instead, the gate of this demon pillar will become larger and larger."
The Taihang Academy was full of scholars and intelligent people. Someone immediately understood what the great scholar Tao Hong meant: "What he meant was, three monsters died outside and can't return. We also need three people to enter the demon pillar?"
"Yes." Tao Hong nodded in response.
Simple and straightforward.
Without saying a single word.
But everyone present understood the meaning, which was that three people had to enter the magic pillar, but no one could tell what would happen after they entered.
But there is a high probability that it will be gone forever.
"Disciple is willing to go."
"Sir, please allow the students to proceed."
"I have heard of the Three Yuan Sea of Sin many times. This is a great opportunity. I want to go and see what it is like."
"Don't compete with me for this opportunity, I want it."
After a brief silence, the academy disciples stood up one after another, wanting to go to the Three Realms Sea of Sin and block the door that could not be closed.
They are all students of the academy, well-read and knowledgeable about the world.
dead.
They are not afraid.
But it only takes three people to die, and they are fearless and willing to take the risk.
Gu Xiu also wanted to go, but before he could open his mouth, the voice of the great scholar Tao Hong reached his ears: "Gu Xiaoyou, please don't argue with my academy disciples this time. You have more important things to do."
Gu Xiu raised his eyebrows.
When he turned his head to look sideways, he saw the great scholar Tao Hong looking at him deeply.
There seemed to be a thousand words in that glance.
He hesitated for a moment, but ultimately didn't step forward. The other Confucian scholars present were still vying for the three spots, practically a death-defying opportunity. An uninformed observer might have thought they were vying for some incredible opportunity.
It was so lively that it seemed like they would fight to decide who could get in if there was any disagreement.
but……
While they were vying for them, they didn't know that these three opportunities had nothing to do with them from the beginning.
because.
At this moment, below the Immortal Burial Valley, looking at Xu Wanqing who was so close, only one step away from entering, a hint of ruthlessness finally flashed in his eyes...
