Chapter 1674: Chapter 1006: Altar Trap
“Master!”
Meng Ting’s face turned pale, and she screamed in terror.
Only now did everyone realize that Liang Yuan actually made a move against this so-called Immortal of the Asura Clan!
Meng Ting screamed in fear, wanting to stop him, but as Liang Yuan’s servant, she couldn’t defy his will, let alone stop him.
So she stood there terrified and helpless.
Liang Yuan, however, looked coldly and said, “Stop her!”
With these words, Meng Ting moved out uncontrollably.
Despite the fear in her heart, she still obeyed Liang Yuan’s command, rushing to the forefront.
But Gu Feng and Shi Haizhu had no such qualms.
The two rushed out immediately, even before Liang Yuan spoke!
However, Shi Haizhu had no means of dealing with spirits and souls; all his methods targeted physical entities.
However, Gu Feng’s spiritual mist would be useful.
He immediately spewed a large amount of white smoke, which instantly enveloped the area ahead.
After Luoyin Nashi’s soul plunged into the mist, she immediately lost direction.
She was both shocked and angry, and immediately turned and flew in another direction.
But all her actions were within Gu Feng’s perception.
Gu Feng quickly pointed in Liang Yuan’s direction.
Liang Yuan’s figure flashed, instantly entering the mist.
Before Meng Ting could rush in to help, a woman’s scream came from inside the mist.
The next moment, Liang Yuan emerged carrying a soul.
“So quick?”
Shi Haizhu exclaimed in surprise.
Gu Feng was also greatly amazed and said, “This so-called Ancient Asura Clan Immortal seems quite weak.”
At this moment, Liang Yuan walked over with large strides, and Meng Ting also reacted, quickly running over.
“Master, are you… are you okay?”
Liang Yuan shook his head slightly, stretched out his palm, and within it, a spherical cage of Spiritual Power now contained the soul of an old woman.
This old woman’s appearance was completely different from that of Luoyin Nashi in the coffin just now; there was almost no resemblance.
Liang Yuan asked, “Meng Ting, can a person’s soul and their physical body be very different?”
Meng Ting was stunned at the moment, looking at the soul in the spiritual cage, somewhat surprised: “Who, who is this?”
“You don’t recognize her? Didn’t you just say she was Luoyin Nashi?”
“No, no, that’s not right, the Asura Clan are long-lived, even at death, they don’t have the image of an old woman. The women of the Asura Clan, even in death, maintain a youthful and beautiful appearance.”
“She is not from the Asura Clan!”
Meng Ting was shock-struck and terrified; she couldn’t understand why someone who wasn’t from the Asura Clan would appear in the body of an Ancient Asura Clan Immortal!
And she almost succeeded in pretending just now!
Because she had no suspicions at all!
Even the other party’s imitation of the Immortal’s demeanor was too realistic.
Meng Ting instantly became angry: “Who are you!”
The soul of the old woman looked up at Meng Ting and spoke in a hoarse voice: “Young one, it seems you are the only one among you who is truly from the Netherworld.”
“I can’t see the slightest reverence for Immortals in these people.”
“The Meng Po clan, haha, I never expected that after barely escaping death, the first thing I’d see upon returning would be a descendant of my Meng Po clan.”
“What a pity… ultimately it was all for nothing.”
Meng Ting was dumbfounded and said in disbelief: “You, you… are you saying you are also from my Meng Po clan?”
“Impossible, it’s impossible, our Meng Po clan’s rule is to guard the underworld for generations, waiting for the Immortals to return, you, how can you be a member of my Meng Po clan?”
The old woman chuckled: “Fool, if I didn’t say so, how would you youngsters be willing to guard our corpses?”
Meng Ting felt a rush of anger, years of persistency seeming like a joke.
Liang Yuan, however, didn’t want to waste time and directly demanded: “Spare the nonsense, who exactly are you, and why did you appear in that corpse?”
The old woman shuddered all over, looked at Liang Yuan, and a flash of malice passed through her eyes.
Just as she was about to speak.
Liang Yuan suddenly raised his hand, and a Soul Imprisonment Rune instantly shot into her body!
Bang!
The old woman trembled violently, and before she could even beg for mercy, she was directly marked with a Slave Mark by Liang Yuan.
At that moment, the old woman immediately became compliant.
The malice in her eyes just now vanished completely.
Now she only showed a look of reverence.
Liang Yuan was finally relieved, feeling that the Soul Imprisonment Rune was lodged within her soul, and with just a thought, he could determine her life or death.
He then asked solemnly: “Tell me, who are you? Why are you hiding in that corpse? How long have you been there?”
This time, the old woman answered obediently: “Reporting to Master, this old servant is the third generation clan leader of the Meng Po clan. When the End of Dharma Era arrived, the Netherworld Spiritual Energy was exhausted and could no longer support us for Feathered Ascension.”
“With no alternatives, as our lifespan was nearing its end, we finally resolutely stepped onto the sacrificial altar, hoping to communicate with the departed ancestors, seeking their guidance.”
“But unexpectedly, this journey turned out to be a road of no return!”
Speaking of this, a trace of fury appeared on the old woman’s face.
Liang Yuan was alarmed at heart, altar? road of no return?
His heart leaped, immediately thinking of Ling Yurong and others.
He urgently asked: “What do you mean by road of no return? Where is the altar?”
The old woman sighed, saying: “Altars are everywhere, almost all altars lead there.”
“This is a trap left by the Ancient Immortals.”
“What? A trap?”
Everyone was shocked.
Even Meng Ting became agitated: “Impossible!”
“Immortals are the ancestors of our clans; how could they harm us?”
Liang Yuan solemnly said: “Meng Ting, listen to her complete statement.”
He looked at the old woman and said gravely: “Explain clearly, what is happening, what trap?”
The old woman replied seriously: “These altars actually lead to a place beyond our world, called Starry Sky Ancient City.”
“Starry Sky Ancient City?”
“Yes, it is located near the Flood River, built by countless Immortals together.”
“In the past, the Ancient Immortals left the human world to explore the truth of the flood, heading to the stars.”
“Mortals foolishly believed that it was an ascension to immortality.”
“Haha, actually, that’s a place of death.”
“Immortals who reach the Star God Level and leave our Grotto Heaven, or even Blue Star, can never return.”
“In seeking to investigate the Milky Way that stretches across the sky, Immortals built the Starry Sky Ancient City nearby.”
“However, it was only when we, having no hope of making breakthroughs, chose to transmit our souls to the Starry Sky Ancient City via the altars that we realized it was a place of death.”
“Many Ancient Immortals entered the starry Milky Way, only to disappear forever.”
“Others, fearing potential dangers in the starry Milky Way, chose to hide in the Starry Sky Ancient City or explore beyond the stars.”
“But as that starry Milky Way gradually dried up and vanished, leaving only the starry riverbed, the Spiritual Energy of the world suddenly seemed drained.”
“Everyone knew that staying in the stars would only lead to death.”
“Thus, they gathered courage, entering the starry river one after another.”
“But those who entered never returned.”
“Some calculated that the starry Milky Way appears periodically.”
“Perhaps when the starry Milky Way reappears, Spiritual Energy will be restored.”
“Thus, some wise Immortals found a way to survive.”
“They abandoned their physical bodies, letting their souls carry the Brain Core, hiding deep within the Starry Sky Ancient City, waiting for the starry Milky Way to appear again and for Spiritual Energy to be restored.”
