When the person behind her heard her words, he was stunned at first, and then he was so angry that he almost laughed.

Haven't they gained enough? They even dare to ask for a reward so brazenly.

"Yes, there is! But you have to promise me one thing." There was a hint of majesty in the man's voice.

"Oh, then no!" Gu Li curled her lips and refused without hesitation. She didn't want to agree to something for no reason, what if it was revenge or something like that.

Judging from the luxury of this palace, we know that the man is not an ordinary person. If he really wants revenge, how can they do it with just a few people?

"You have to accept it even if you don't want it. If you don't agree to me, I will kill you and keep you here with me forever." There was a fierceness in his tone.

"Why are you still forcing me to buy or sell?" Lin Yuchen frowned, speechless!

"Have you made up your mind?" the man urged impatiently.

"Why don't you show up first? Otherwise it would seem so insincere!" Su Yiyu was a little curious about what this person looked like. Why did he seem so scary sometimes and so childish sometimes.

“Hmph, if you go into the palace inside, you will see me.” The man snorted coldly and gave instructions.

Gu Li and a few others looked at each other, feeling a little hesitant.

They didn't know what the purpose of this mysterious man was.

"What if there is a trap?" Su Yiyun said worriedly.

"It shouldn't be. If they really wanted us to die, why would they go to the trouble of teaching us all kinds of secret techniques?" Mu Yunxi thought for a moment and sent a message back.

"I can hear you!" the voice suddenly sounded.

"With such limited strength, you are still communicating in front of me!" A disdainful voice sounded.

Su Yiyun was shocked: "Why are you still eavesdropping on other people's conversations!"

"Who wants to listen to you? Who made your cultivation so rubbish?"

"Okay, let's go in!" Gu Li interrupted Su Yiyun and was about to refute. Yun Xi was right. There was no need to spend so much effort to kill them.

Several people walked towards the palace he mentioned and soon arrived.

The gate of the palace was closed, exuding a mysterious and majestic atmosphere.

When they approached the palace gate, the door seemed to sense their arrival and slowly opened automatically.

A stale smell wafted over, and the dim light inside made it difficult to see the road ahead.

They entered the palace cautiously, taking every step with extreme caution.

A faint light flickered on the walls of the palace, as if telling an ancient story.

"It's so dark here!" Su Yiyun just finished speaking.

The surrounding candles lit up by themselves.

As the candles lit, the scene inside the palace gradually became clear.

However, there was still no sign of the mysterious man. Everyone looked around and saw exquisite patterns carved on the walls of the palace. Those patterns were ancient and mysterious, and seemed to be telling a long-standing legend.

The palace was filled with an ancient and mysterious atmosphere. In the middle of the palace, there was a crystal-clear coffin. The coffin emitted a strange light, as if telling an unknown past.

"Old man, where are you? We're coming in." Lin Yuchen shouted loudly, his voice echoed in the empty palace, but there was no response.

He frowned and looked around, his heart full of doubts. "There's no one here!" Lin Yuchen muttered.

"It can't be in that coffin!" Su Yiyu's eyes flashed with curiosity, and he took a step forward involuntarily.

However, before he could get close to the coffin, Feng Wuhen grabbed him. "Don't touch it!" Feng Wuhen's voice was full of seriousness.

"Oh! Okay." Su Yiyun responded reluctantly and stopped obediently.

"Where are you? Didn't you ask us to come over?" Gu Li frowned slightly and spoke.

"What's the hurry?" An old and majestic voice suddenly sounded.

Then, a blurry figure gradually emerged from the coffin. The figure slowly became clearer like fog.

Gradually, the figure appeared in front of everyone. He was wearing a black robe with mysterious patterns embroidered on it, as if it contained endless power.

His white hair was as white as snow, falling on his shoulders like a waterfall, gently fluttering in the wind. His eyes revealed endless vicissitudes and majesty, as if he had experienced countless years of baptism.

"I wonder what the senior wants us to agree to?" Gu Li asked respectfully, his eyes full of curiosity.

"It's very simple. I hope that if you can go to the upper realm one day in the future, you can go to the Divine Spirit Sect and engrave a copy of the secret techniques in your sea of ​​consciousness and pass them on to the people of the Divine Spirit Sect." The old man's voice was steady and powerful, as if there was no room for doubt.

"Senior, what if we can't ascend?" Xi Zi Han asked with a puzzled look on his face.

After all, no one in the Mist Wind Continent has been able to ascend for hundreds of years, not even in the northern part of the Mist Wind Continent, let alone in the southern continent where their spiritual power is weak.

"I believe in your talents. Once you agree, I will give you an opportunity." The old man's eyes were shining. With their talents, it was only a matter of time for them to ascend to heaven. Even in the upper realm, they would be the best.

"Senior, why don't you tell us about your situation? Otherwise, if we really ascend to heaven in the future, how are we going to contact the people from the Divine Sect?" Gu Li said after thinking for a moment.

"Well, then I will tell you about my story. I am already dead anyway, so there is nothing I cannot tell you." The old man sighed slightly, with deep emotion in his voice.

Gu Li was shocked. She didn't expect that he was a remnant soul. If a remnant soul was so strong, how strong would the people in the upper realm be? Her heart was filled with curiosity and yearning.

"I was originally the leader of the Divine Sect of Lingxi Continent in the upper realm. Three thousand years ago, Lingxi Continent launched a war because of an uncertain prophecy. The structure of major forces also changed, and many forces were wiped out. Our Divine Sect also participated in that war." The old man's voice was low and slow, as if he was recalling that painful past.

"That war was extremely brutal, with countless lives lost and rivers of blood flowing. Although our Shenling Sect is powerful, we also suffered heavy losses in the war. A traitor appeared in the sect and stole most of the Shenling Sect's skills and secrets, causing the Shenling Sect to be much less powerful in Lingxi Continent. I chased that man here, and although I killed the traitor and took back the Shenling Sect's things, I fell into his trap and was seriously injured. I can only stay in the lower realm to seal up those secret skills, leaving behind a remnant soul, waiting for someone to bring these things back for me." The mysterious old man's voice was filled with deep emotion and grief, and his eyes were flashing with tears, as if the painful memories had once again come to his mind.

After listening to the old man's story, several people fell into silence.
