Old Chen casually put the dinner on his shoulder, and the latter grabbed his little paw and sat on Chen Anning's shoulder, acting as a cheap pendant for a short time.
After doing all this, Chen Anning and Xiao Nianqing finally began to examine the surrounding situation.
It is noon.
The weather is humid and the temperature is not high.
There is also a bamboo forest around, but the landform is somewhat similar to Yunyue Island.
Chen Anning raised her head and carefully looked at the sky. After looking for a long time, she didn't find any shadow like a phantom array.
"Isn't this in the phantom array?"
Xiao Nianqing glanced up and nodded, "We've already come out, we should."
This statement just fell.
Xiao Nianqing glanced at the dense bamboo forest on the side.
Chen Anning also followed her gaze.
Suddenly, he saw a head as smooth as a marinated egg poking out of the bamboo forest.
With this head, Chen Anning didn't need to look at the face, he didn't need to look at the body shape, he could recognize the identity of this person just by looking at the shape and reflectivity of the head.
"Brother Gu Xun? You came out too?"
It seems that Gu Sun did not expect to meet Chen Anning and the others here.
However, at the moment when the two sides met, neither of them showed any surprise.
Only surprise, no joy.
Xiao Nianqing stared at Gu Xun, and Gu Xun also stared at Xiao Nianqing.
Since Xiao Nianqing is not completely sure that the phantom formation has disappeared, he needs to reconfirm that the Gu Xun in front of him is also "real" rather than "illusory".
So, Xiao Nianqing asked in a deep voice: "Tell me the password for the operation of Yulan City."
That was a certain big move by Wan Mo Li Yuan.
Gu Xun smiled when he heard the words: "I didn't go to that operation at all."
Xiao Nianqing raised her brows slightly, she felt relieved.
The fact is, as Gu Xun said, that action had nothing to do with him at all, so it is naturally impossible for him to know the so-called password.
no doubt.
The old Gu Xun in front of him is real.
This head is the real deal.
"So we've all come out." Xiao Nianqing heaved a sigh of relief.
Gu Xun nodded: "I met Zizhou and Mu Xuehai just now, and after asking a few words, I found that they were all broken, and came here when they came back to their senses."
Wang Xuanbing's remnant soul floated out: "That also means that the phantom formation is completely broken."
The existence of the phantom formation is indeed a problem, but now it seems that the only one who is stretching his hips in the phantom formation is a certain little fox.
Sensing this, Su Su shrank back, with an aggrieved expression on his face.
And Chen Anning discovered another problem.
"Where's that girl Wen Yixin?"
Following Chen Anning's question, everyone fell into silence.
No one has ever seen Wen Yixin.
Besides, since everyone broke through the phantom formation, Wen Yixin didn't appear nearby.
That also means that perhaps Wen Yixin has never stepped into the illusion array from the very beginning.
Xiao Nianqing guessed: "It should be teleported away by her master deliberately at the moment when the phantom array was activated."
Gu Xun nodded in agreement: "Indeed, that immortal doctor has no reason to keep his precious apprentice by his side."
"In short, everyone must gather first." Chen Anning, as the backbone of the team, immediately made a judgment on the current situation: "Consolidate the information, and I need to tell you something about the Immortal Doctor..."
……
……
Regarding the conversation between himself and the Immortal Doctor, Chen Anning probably recounted it to everyone.
After Xiao Nianqing finished listening, her eyes were unusually cold: "She used her disciple as a fusion of human body and ancient soul, she is really crazy..."
Gu Xun's complexion was not much better: "Perhaps her intention is good, but her approach seems to be a little too radical."
"I almost can't tell who is the demon cultivator." Mu Xuehai whispered.
Chen Anning waved her hand: "These are not the key to the problem. The question now is—how did she combine the ancient soul with the human? Is all this related to the relics left in Shang Qingyun's cave?"
"Also, is Qianhuahai colluding with other forces..."
Xiao Nianqing understood what Chen Anning meant: "For example, Yumeng and Lihuo?"
Chen Anning glanced at the bamboo forest beside her: "Just to mention this possibility, although they have always claimed to be an absolutely independent force on the surface, but they have a relationship with the ancient soul, which makes me have to consider their relationship with Yumeng. There is also the possibility of an alliance with the Lihuo Dynasty."
The combination of ancient soul and human technology is outrageous.
Perhaps the method of controlling the first generation of ancient souls mastered by the Lihuo Dynasty is also inseparable from Qianhuahai.
Gee.
Before coming here, Chen Anning did not expect that this matter would be so complicated.
What made Chen Anning even more troublesome was that at this moment, Tiandao Juanshu actually issued a warning.
[Warning, I noticed a lot of ancient soul breath near the host]
[After preliminary judgment, most of the ancient soul breaths are relatively weak, but there are a lot of them, please be careful of the host]
435. Subvert cognition
Are there ancient souls nearby? !
This made Chen Anning instinctively think of the [Forerunner] troops that Qu Yunxiao once said.
She called the combination of human beings and ancient souls "Forerunner". Although this is a high-sounding title, as long as the word "troop" is added after it, the meaning will be great.
At least it is certain that there is more than one [Pioneer], and there may even be hundreds or even thousands.
Although I don't know the specific strength of the [Forerunners], but those who have something to do with the ancient soul... will definitely not be weak.
"Search the surrounding area, there is the breath of the ancient soul."
Chen Anning's sudden order made everyone startled.
But fortunately, everyone present today is a first-class player.
After a very brief moment of stupefaction, they turned into a few afterimages and quickly disappeared.
But a moment later—
Su Zizhou quickly came back to report.
"A deep cave was found three hundred feet away on the south side. It seems to lead to the ground. There are traces of human habitation, which is very suspicious."
Cave, underground.
Coupled with the approximate location given in the Book of Heavenly Dao——
Chen Anning nodded and praised Su Zizhou's performance: "It should be right there, let's go."
……
The ancient soul needs a hiding place.
Since human experiments are to be carried out, a large number of ancient souls are absolutely necessary.
There are a lot of human beings in the Sea of Thousand Flowers.
Ancient souls are not something that can be seen everywhere.
Coupled with the fact that they are living creatures, it is extremely difficult to contain them.
Therefore, when hearing the Heavenly Dao Scroll warning him [there are a large number of ancient souls with weak auras nearby], Chen Anning could probably guess that——
In the sea of thousands of flowers, there must be a few islands hiding a lot of ancient souls!
The underground space that the cave leads to should be where the ancient souls are.
"If you want to stop that crazy doctor, you must first find a way to clean up all the ancient souls."
"Then find a way to deal with those [Forerunner] troops. If possible, don't kill them."
After all, although they have fused ancient souls, according to the judgment of the Heavenly Dao Scroll, their essence is still human.
The mind is human, but the body has undergone some changes. If possible, Chen Anning does not want to kill at will.
Think about this time.
Chen Anning and the others came to the cave.
The interior of the cave was empty, dark and cold, Su Zizhou lingered his own qi around the dagger as a short-lived light source to illuminate the scene inside the cave.
While walking, the sound of everyone's footsteps echoed endlessly in the silent cave.
Gu Xun and Xiao Nianqing are also on guard against the ancient souls that may attack around them - they are now considered experts in dealing with ancient souls, and they should have the most abundant experience in fighting ancient souls in this era.
When everyone came to the deepest part of the cave, Su Zizhou keenly discovered that one of the stone walls could be moved.
After removing the stone wall, a road leading to the ground was revealed to everyone.
"Sure enough." Chen Anning looked cold, "This is where Qu Yunxiao hides the ancient soul."
"Let's go." Xiao Nianqing mentioned Yuxue and led everyone towards the underground space.
They know better than anyone how terrifying the ancient soul is.
When the first ancient soul was born, its terrifying deterrence was even enough to make the whole world tremble.
Even the Mara tree, which is inseparable from the ancient soul and may be the creation of the ancient soul... is also a nightmare of countless sects and countless cities. From ancient times to the present, countless people have died under the whipping of the Mara tree.
