Yu Lian was completely hopeless, sleeping most of the time, waking up very briefly, staring at the endless void in a daze.

Her soul was kept by Dong Mingle in the soul array set up by the extremely dark ancient jade, and passively absorbed the soul energy in the ancient jade.

Because of his extremely high cultivation level during his lifetime, even if he does not take the initiative to practice after death, his soul energy will still gather spontaneously, and his soul fire will grow stronger and more solidified, gradually showing a tendency to gather into a human form.

Dong Mingle would appear in the secret room every day. Occasionally, when she saw Yu Lian awake, she would talk to her, chatting about her own experience and the various situations in the world outside the secret room.

If Yu Lian's soul was fast asleep, she would not disturb her, and sat cross-legged on the futon next to the soul formation to practice, sometimes only staying for an hour or two, and sometimes meditating for several days.

Yu Lian couldn't understand her, and she didn't want to understand. Even when she woke up and saw Dong Mingle meditating beside her, she never took the initiative to shake her soul fire.

Time passed slowly in the muddled days and nights like this. Before I knew it, Dong Mingle seemed to have not appeared for a long time. Is it three months or five months?

Yu Lian closed her eyes indifferently.

At this moment, the door of the dark room made a sound, and the stone wall of Zhang Xukuan slid open to the right, and Dong Mingle, dressed in green, appeared in the stone room. gas.

Dong Mingle had an injury in her waist and abdomen, and she staggered a little. She walked to the side of the soul array, and fell limply on the futon.

Because of this series of actions, her wound was pulled, and a stream of blood soaked out, soaking the clothes around her waist, and the color was mottled.

She let out a breath, and for the first time, she didn't have the energy to check whether the people in the soul circle were awake, so she leaned against the stone platform and closed her eyes for a nap.

It was the first time Yu Lian had seen this scheming woman so weak. The soul fire swayed slowly in the void, and then the shape of the soul changed, gradually condensing into a woman's body.

She was still dressed in a graceful red dress, with long hair like a waterfall, casually scattered behind her back.

Yu Lian's expression was indifferent, her eyes were silent, and a frost that could not be melted was condensed in the depths of her pupils.

Her eyes fell on Dong Mingle's pale face, and after a while, she raised her hand to form a seal, and threw a wave of soul energy to cover Dong Mingle's wound.

The condensed soul energy has the effect of healing, and soon stopped the bleeding of the wound, and began to heal slowly.

The latter's shoulders trembled slightly, and he woke up from his drowsiness. His long eyelashes blinked a few times, and a flash of surprise flashed across his eyes.

Dong Mingle propped up her upper body, and looked sideways at Yu Lianxin in the soul formation.

However, the man in red had closed his eyes again, and floated cross-legged in the void, as if he was breathing in and adjusting his breath.

Dong Mingle was stunned for a moment, then slightly curled the corners of her lips, with a hazy gleam in her eyes.

She withdrew her gaze and leaned her upper body on the edge of the stone platform. Regardless of whether Yu Lian was willing to listen or not, she said to herself, "It's been ten years, and this is the first time you've talked to me."

The people behind should not answer, and Dong Mingle didn't care. She looked up at the roof of the stone room, with rare confusion in her eyes.

"Sometimes I don't know what's the point of this persistence." She turned her head to the side and found a more comfortable position to lean against the stone platform. Go forward."

Yu Lian opened her eyes again, staring at her silently.

Dong Mingle paused for a moment, eyes half closed, chest rising and falling to calm down.

After a long time, I spoke again: "As a descendant of the Dongming clan, I should do my best for my clan, but the mortal realm has long since changed the world, and those stubborn old things still want to take advantage of the protection of their ancestors to dominate the world again."

"I got in their way and they tried to get rid of me."

In her long life, except for the defeat of Xuan Yuexin in the first battle ten thousand years ago, and then several times of confrontation, and her willful actions, she only had herself when she was in this stone room.

However, he has worked hard for more than ten thousand years, and what he got in return is crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, the cunning rabbit died, and the lackey cooked it.

No matter how disappointed, no matter how painful, she must continue to live, otherwise, when she falls, all the people with lofty ideals surrounded by her will lose their shelter and will become fish on the chopping board of others.

Dong Mingle sighed again, supported the edge of the stone platform and stood up slowly, turned her head to meet Yu Lianxin's eyes.

Then, she raised her hand, and used the little spirit energy left to untie the soul array. The extremely dark ancient jade shattered to the ground, and the rich soul energy poured into Yu Lian's soul body, making her dense soul condense again visible to the naked eye. It's true.

"You go." She whispered.

She is in the Dongming clan surrounded by tigers and wolves, and she will suddenly change at some point. She is afraid that she will not be able to come here often in the future, so it is meaningless to keep Yu Lianxin in this dark room.

Yu Lian glanced at her heartily, her eyes were cold and flat, and she said "thank you" without any ups and downs in her tone, then her figure flashed and disappeared outside the stone gate.

Dong Mingle supported the stone platform with her right hand, her five fingers were slightly curled up, and her figure was slightly stooped. After a while, she was depressed but relieved, shaking her head and sighing.

"Never mind."

She kept Yu Lianxin for ten years. During these ten years, when the other party spoke to her, he only said these two words.

In the end, no one can take the position of that person in Yu Lian's heart. After Que Qingyun died, Yu Lian's heart was also emptied. The sun and moon wax and wane, flowers, birds, fish and insects, and everything in the world, nothing can make her heart move.

After ten years of extremely dark ancient jade to nourish the soul, Yu Lianxin's cultivation has recovered by one-twelfth, barely reaching the level of the peak of the Dao Realm and about to break through the Hollow Realm.

Ordinary cultivators, if their cultivation base is above the state of distraction, and their soul consciousness is preserved intact after death, they have a certain chance of refining the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and reshaping their physical bodies.

If the physical body fails to condense, it turns into a ghost cultivator.

Yu Lian has no such worries, not to mention that her own cultivation is far above the state of distraction, and the power of the soul in her body is also integrated with her consciousness.

Her soul was repaired in the soul array, and the power of the five soul skeletons was greatly restored. With the assistance of the soul skeletons of Sen Luomen, it was easy to reshape the physical body.

But she didn't know what she wanted this physical body for, so she was not in a hurry to practice, and just used a touch of her soul body to walk between the world and the earth.

She has been to many places, wading across three rivers and four seas, going deep into the wilderness of the extreme north, and also went to the barren Yangyang. She has traveled almost every corner of the mortal world and seen many customs.

Not long after the Heavenly Dao Thunder Tribulation came, the souls of the ancient monsters escaped from the seal, returned to the mortal world from the Xuan Palace, and entered the Dongming Clan Monument to recuperate.

The alien monsters sensed the return of the Beast Emperor, and responded to the call one after another, gathering in the Dongming clan, and the Dongming clan returned to the stage of history.

In addition, the previous thunder calamity caused the sky to collapse, and most of the Xianzong people were killed and injured by the thunder calamity. The rest of the masters were wounded and lived in seclusion, hiding from the world. As a result, there was an unprecedented change in power in the territory of Dazhu.

Natural disasters took away tens of thousands of mortal beings, and at the same time buried countless opportunities.

After the calamity of karma was largely curbed, the aura of heaven and earth began to grow, and more and more mortals entered the Dao with martial arts by chance.

More than a hundred years ago, the ten great immortal sects headed by Dao Yanzong disappeared, and now the territory of the Daqi Dynasty is divided into five parts, namely:

The Dongming clan in the east of the Xiangshui River, the Tianlanming Zen sect in the west, the Yuxianmen of Yuzhou in the south, the Tianming sect in the northern ice field, and the land of the Central Plains have returned to the dominant Daoyan sect since they came out of the mountains.

The five supernatural forces have a vast territory and different methods of rule, but within their sphere of influence, they all have the absolute right to speak.

Not only the sect of Xianzong was severely impacted by the catastrophe, but the place where mortals live together has also undergone earth-shaking changes.

Under the control of various sects, human beings built new cities in places without karma, and found a way to resist monsters with human wisdom, so a new skill appeared: Lingyin seal cutting.

Using spirit stones as the medium, engraving spirit seals on them and embedding them on weapons or armor can greatly increase the damage or protection level. Ordinary people who don't know how to practice Qi and cast spells can also use them directly. It is the main means for mortals to resist the attacks of monsters and beasts. one.

The spiritual seals below the third rank have been popularized in the mortal world, and mortal craftsmen who know the techniques can also make them, but the spiritual seals above the third rank need to have a certain foundation to make, and most of them are produced by Buddhist monasteries and immortal strongholds in various places. In exchange for mortal goods.

Newborn babies have clean six roots and gradually adapt to the environment where karma gathers. Affected by the war situation of monsters coming to the world, many children practice martial arts from an early age.

As a result, martial arts among the people prospered, monsters and beasts moved in the wilderness, and fought against human cities, and the two incompatible racial forces reached a short-term balance in the troubled times.

Yu Lian's heart was empty, she maintained her soul body, and wandered aimlessly between heaven and earth.

Before you know it, another ten years have passed.

On this day, she was taking a nap on the beam of a teahouse, and suddenly heard a few martial arts practitioners in the hall say that the Dongming Clan's century-old family canon is about to start, and this time the family canon will determine the next patriarch.

Hearing the words, the people on the beam turned their eyes slightly, and thought to themselves, isn't the young patriarch of the Dongming clan Dong Mingle?

She has been wandering outside these years, and she doesn't pay much attention to the change of power in the mundane world, and the intelligence of the world, so her impression of Dong Mingle is still in a hasty glance when she left that dark room ten years ago.

Immediately another person answered her doubts: "Dong Mingle was originally supposed to be taken over by Dong Mingle, but unfortunately Dong Mingle's old injury relapsed three years ago, and it was difficult to support the overall situation. People who supported her died, scattered and scattered. , and now there is no one available.”

"The Dongming family is very ambitious, but Dongmingle can be a good person. Once she falls, the Divine Lord Sect will lose all obstacles in the way. I'm afraid they will send their troops south. The first one to bear the brunt must be the Yuxianmen."

Divine faction.

Yu Lian had some impressions, Dong Mingle had mentioned it to her.

Those in the Dongming clan who regard the souls of ancient ferocious beasts as demon gods are old antiques, and still have the obsession with dominating the world in their hearts.

They believed that the Dongming clan's blood was noble and special, and they wanted to inherit the will of their ancestors, lead monsters to slaughter mortals, drive out the remaining sects of the current immortal sect, expand the territory of the Dongming clan, and dominate the world.

But Dong Mingle did not agree with this.

Mortal Realm has just experienced a catastrophe, the souls of the ancient ferocious beasts have returned, the Dongming clan has been sheltered, and the ethnic group has begun to prosper. She advocated that the Dongming clan should take this opportunity to recuperate and accumulate strength for the continuation and development of the ethnic group.

The Dongming family has taken root in the mortal world and has been passed down for tens of thousands of years. Although its clan is descended from the ancient beasts, its essence is no different from the common people in this world.

In the bloodlines of future generations, the power inherited from the ancient fierce beasts is already extremely thin. The Dongming family should no longer stick to the old system, regard themselves as an alien in the mortal world, and drive out all people in this world.

The Shenzhu faction and the Wuwei faction headed by the Dongming clan have conflicting ideas. They have been deadlocked for a long time, fighting each other openly and secretly, and arguing endlessly.

Ten years ago, the people from the Divine Master Sect couldn't help but attack Dong Mingle. Three years ago, Dong Mingle's old injury must have relapsed, and this group of people was also behind the scenes.

Yu Lian thought of that day, when Dong Mingle untied the soul array and let her go, her figure was thin.Dong Mingle had already expected that she would not be able to stop the ambition of the Divine Lord Sect, so she had no choice but to let her go.

The tea guests in the hall only said a few words, and the topic changed.

Yu Lian got up with a heart, walked lightly through the rubble piled up on the roof, and melted into the void without a sound.

·

"Dongming Clan Code?"

In the darkness, a clear and cold female voice sounded calmly.

The silver-haired, red-eyed woman was lying on her side on the couch, frivolously playing with a strand of hair curled around her fingertips, looking at the man in white who was not far away from her, the corners of her lips curled up in a playful arc:

"Those old guys are going to ignore my warning, how about my sister beat them on my behalf?"

In the dim vision, the person turned around, her face was covered by the hazy shadow, and only a soft and cold voice could be heard: "It's a little effort."
