Chapter 1622: Chapter 824: Please Elaborate
The temple door slowly opened, a beam of white light shot out, landing on the White Jade Platform, transforming into a curled-up, weak figure.
It was Bai Zhi!
At this moment, she was even more battered than in the Secret Realm.
Her plain white dress was damaged in many places, stained with dried blood.
Her eyes were tightly closed, her face as pale as paper, her breath as weak as a candle flickering in the wind.
Most shocking was the twisted black rune writhing at the center of her brow, exuding a chilling, malevolent aura, which was the "Evil Spirit Binding Lock"!
This chain not only imprisoned her Divine Soul but was also continuously eroding her Life Origin!
Her meridians were also severely weakened due to prolonged imprisonment and erosion, and her Sea of Consciousness was a complete mess.
"Evil Spirit Binding Lock!"
Tantai Xueling’s gaze sharpened as she instantly recognized the origin of that black rune.
She stepped forward, arriving beside Bai Zhi, extending her slender jade-like hand, with fingertips swirling with a gentle yet powerful lunar radiance, gently touching Bai Zhi’s brow.
As the lunar radiance made contact with the black rune, a sizzling sound erupted!
The twisted black rune struggled violently, exuding an even thicker malevolent aura, attempting to resist!
Tantai Xueling coldly snorted, the radiance from her fingertips intensified!
A vast, pure, majestic power capable of purifying all the world’s filth erupted magnificently!
Hiss—!
Like sunlight dispersing the gloom!
The obstinate black rune under the continuous cleansing of the lunar radiance quickly dimmed, twisted, and finally let out a mournful wail, completely collapsing and dissipating!
With the Evil Spirit Binding Lock lifted, Bai Zhi’s tightly furrowed brow slightly eased, and her paper-pale face regained a faint trace of color.
Although still unconscious, with her breath weak, that cold aura entangled in the depths of her Divine Soul had dissipated significantly.
Her condition finally stabilized, no longer deteriorating.
Tantai Xueling withdrew her hand, looking at the unconscious Bai Zhi, a trace of surprise in her eyes.
"Spirit Queen’s Descendant? Sixteenth on the Great Wilderness Holy Academy’s True Inheritance List... Bai Zhi? How did she end up in such a state?"
Gu Sheng briefly recounted the sacrifice plan of Xiao Beixuan in the Secret Realm of the Thousand Souls Hall and how Bai Zhi was abducted as the main array’s core.
"Nether River... Xiao Beixuan..."
Tantai Xueling’s gaze cooled slightly.
"Quite a grand scheme, daring even to lay hands on the Holy Academy’s true disciple."
"Her injuries are severe, with damaged meridians and Sea of Consciousness; she needs to rest quietly."
Gu Sheng looked at the unconscious Bai Zhi.
"I need to head to the Great Wilderness Holy Academy.
Please take care of her during this time."
Tantai Xueling glanced at Gu Sheng, did not inquire further, merely nodded gently.
"I can. A Spirit Queen’s descendant should not be in such a sorry state. I will have someone take care of her with great care."
She paused, her gaze sweeping over the shadow behind Gu Sheng, and added.
"This journey to the Holy Academy might not be peaceful. Let the Shadow go with you. If there is danger, he can act."
Gu Sheng did not refuse.
"Alright."
He took one last look at the unconscious Bai Zhi and the hovering Divine Craft Maze Palace, then turned and left the underground level.
The Shadow silently followed behind him, with its presence hidden to the extreme, as if it did not exist.
Leaving the Linyin Pavilion, Gu Sheng did not linger and headed straight for the core Transmission Array located in the Heaven City area of Great Wilderness City.
There lay a dedicated transmission channel leading to the "Holy Domain," where the Great Wilderness Holy Academy’s mountain gate was located.
The Heaven City area was heavily guarded, with powerful martial artists coming and going.
The core Transmission Array area was personally guarded by the disciples of the Great Wilderness Holy Academy.
Gu Sheng paid the hefty transmission fee and stepped into the teleportation array leading to the Holy Domain. Light ignited, and space twisted.
The light faded, and Gu Sheng appeared in a completely different world.
Here, the Spiritual Energy was so dense it nearly became tangible, forming misty clouds.
In the distance, majestic mountains and sprawling palaces loomed, appearing and disappearing within the clouds and mist, like an Immortal Realm.
The air was filled with an ancient, solemn, and sacred aura.
This was where the Great Wilderness Holy Academy’s mountain gate lay—the Holy Domain!
Gu Sheng had just stepped out of the teleportation array—
"Halt!"
A cold shout suddenly erupted!
Swish! Swish!
Two figures in the standard azure robes of the Great Wilderness Holy Academy, exuding sharp auras, instantly appeared before Gu Sheng, blocking his way!
Both were in the Sect Realm, their eyes as keen as hawks, filled with scrutiny and vigilance, their longswords undrawn but already locking onto Gu Sheng with their fierce Sword Intent!
"Who are you? Where do you come from? What is your purpose in coming to our Holy Domain?"
The leading young disciple’s voice was cold and carried an undeniable authority.
Gu Sheng remained calm, not angered by the questioning.
"Gu Sheng. From Great Wilderness City. Seeking Elder Bai Yu."
"Elder Bai Yu?"
The young disciple frowned slightly, scrutinizing Gu Sheng.
Elder Bai Yu was known for being aloof and seldom received visitors; this person actually named him directly? He pondered briefly and said.
"Please wait here."
Then he signaled to the other disciple beside him with a glance.
The disciple understood, immediately took out a Communication Jade Talisman, and reported something in a low voice.
Moments later, the disciple put away the Jade Talisman, nodded to the leading young man, then looked at Gu Sheng with a slightly softer tone.
"Elder Bai Yu invites you. However..."
He paused, lowering his voice.
"The elder asked me to tell you that those from the Mystic Sect are in an abnormal state and you should be extra cautious."
Mystic Sect? Gu Sheng’s gaze focused slightly. Was Bai Yu referring to Shen Qingyun? It seemed Bai Yu had also detected Shen Qingyun’s unusual state.
"Thank you for the warning."
Gu Sheng nodded slightly.
The two disciples stepped aside to clear the way.
Gu Sheng strode forth, heading toward "Luomei Small Residence," where Elder Bai Yu resided.
