Primordial Qi

Chapter 239 Soul Stone

The soul power became stronger and stronger, and the stone door was slowly pushed open. A burning sensation came, and Gu Chenyu's face was the first to be hit. He almost couldn't withstand this sudden change. Fortunately, his soul fire was stronger than this burning wind.

The four monsters were stunned. The soul of the human cultivator was so terrifying that it could actually push open the stone door and ignore the soul fire produced by the gathering of those resentful spirits.

"What are you standing there for? Come on, come in with me and take a look."

Gu Chenyu urged them to follow. The four demon beasts shook their heads hastily. It was obvious that this was not a proper place. They did not want to die, so they smiled and said, "Daoyou, you can explore it yourself. We have a unique way to enter."

"Oh? Come, show me." Gu Chenyu looked at them with interest.

The four monsters instantly defeated each other, and the four light spots disappeared into the ground. Gu Chenyu was dumbfounded. What the hell was this? Mutual suicide?

"I rely on!"

Gu Chenyu instantly realized that this was their unique way of traveling. As long as they complied with the rules here, they could naturally leave in this way. However, this was the way the monsters enslaved here passed, and it had nothing to do with him. If his soul suffered a fatal blow, he would be forcibly teleported out.

After thinking for a long time, Gu Chenyu decided to connect to the sea of consciousness first to see if he could establish a connection and bring Haoran Zhong and the others over to absorb and refine the soul power below together.

The soul body sensed the physical body, and the elusive connection was actually able to communicate. Gu Chenyu immediately sat cross-legged on the ground, only to see the black dragon in the sea of consciousness smiling obscenely.

Seeing Gu Chenyu coming, the black dragon's face changed, and it became majestic again. Gu Chenyu felt strange, what was wrong with this stupid dragon? He was laughing so hard that his saliva was almost flowing out.

Pale white silk threads connected Gu Chenyu's soul to his physical body. Those threads were like the cause and effect lines of fate, connecting the body and soul.

"This secret realm is ultimately connected to the physical body. Otherwise, it would be impossible to return to the physical body so quickly and avoid trauma to the soul."

Gu Chenyu shook his head, and his consciousness awakened Haoran Zhong and Fang Yixian. When he heard that there was something good, Haoran Zhong no longer pretended to be asleep. Fang Yixian escaped into Haoran Zhong's body, and followed it along the silk thread to Gu Chenyu's side.

"Boy, tell me quickly, what did you find?" Haoran Zhong was impatient. He really liked this kind of cheap and irrelevant things.

"Go and see for yourself." Gu Chenyu said unhappily. This broken clock is really a piece of shit. It pretends to be dead on weekdays, but it comes out first when it encounters something good.

Fang Yixian looked around and saw endless ghost fires wandering in the stone gate. The green fire of the resentful spirits made people feel terrified. Just touching it would make their souls dissipate and they would be ignited and turned into ashes in an instant.

Gu Chenyu was thinking of going over to take away the soul power as if nothing had happened. She couldn't help but wonder what was going on in this guy's mind. He was not only insensitive to emotions, but also to danger. When she saw the soul fire burning on Gu Chenyu, she felt like a clown again, and completely forgot that this guy was a freak.

"How are you going to get there?" Fang Yixian asked curiously.

"Hmm? Let's go over there." Gu Chenyu chuckled. He didn't feel there was any danger inside. If the fire of those resentful spirits dared to touch it and try, he would refine it in an instant.

Seeing Fang Yixian was hesitant, Gu Chenyu said confidently: "Don't worry, with Haoran Bell, he has thick skin and flesh, and this little flame can't burn him."

Haoran Bell also responded with a golden glow. How could we not take the good stuff in front of us? A mere flame could easily break it.

"Ahem, can you take me with you?" The Black Dragon smiled and a voice came from his sea of consciousness.

"Can you make it?" Gu Chenyu asked.

The black dragon chuckled, "Of course I can't come over, but I can spare a wisp of my soul and attach it to you when the time comes."

The black dragon's soul was led over and it lived on Gu Chenyu's back, coiled around him like a tattoo.

"Can it be like this?" Gu Chenyu was full of curiosity. What was this operation?

"There are countless techniques in the world of immortal cultivation. You have only seen a few of them. This is just one of the thousands of techniques."

"Don't shout, teach it to me when the time comes."

Black Dragon: "..."

"Everyone is ready, let's go."

Gu Chenyu took a step forward, and the flames that were coming towards him were offset by his soul fire. This kind of fire that he refined by himself was a consumable after all. Gu Chenyu was not sure how far he could go, but it should be enough here.

After a while, the flames of the resentful spirits began to dissipate, and in front of them was a large number of wandering souls in various shapes, including animals and humans. Gu Chenyu couldn't help but wonder, how could there be human souls here?

"Oh my god, a transformed demon is at the monarch level." Fang Yixin had learned the words "Oh my god" and "Oh my god", but she was still shocked when she saw the transformed demon's soul.

"What? A great demon at the monarch level? How could it die so miserably?" Those demon beasts obviously lost their true spirits. Even if their spirits were still intact, they had lost their combat power. Gu Chenyu couldn't help but feel a chill. Their true spirits wouldn't be wiped out here, right?

"It must have lost its fighting power after the battle, so it turned into this puppet-like soul. Don't be afraid, kid, keep moving forward. I seem to smell the scent of something good." Haoran Zhong urged. It had a hunch that there must be something good here.

Gu Chenyu was a little speechless. It would be great if it was so active during a fight. As long as it wasn't a life-and-death battle, this guy probably wouldn't come out.

After avoiding the souls of these monsters, Gu Chenyu continued walking. He was a little curious about where the place that could restore the power of the soul was, and why it had not been discovered for so many years.

"Boy, there is another door. Are you kidding me?" Haoran Zhong was a little impatient. This place was full of mindless monsters. He couldn't absorb their soul power!

"Don't be impatient, let me try to open it." Gu Chenyu put his hands on the stone door. This time he opened the door without much effort. The white soul inside was obviously more agile than the previous one.

"I don't know where the four monsters went. It's really bad that there is no one to lead the way."

"Go forward, it seems to smell like a soul stone." Haoran Zhong said.

"Soul Stone? Something like a Spirit Stone?"

"Yes, the soul stones are not ordinary. The soul power inside is extremely pure. They are divine objects for cultivating the soul. There are earth soul stones, sky soul stones, and holy soul stones. There should be a high-grade soul stone like the sky soul stone hidden here."

Haoran Zhong supplemented Gu Chenyu with this knowledge, and Gu Chenyu nodded. If such a thing really existed, then it would explain why the monsters here could recover their spirits.

After moving forward for a distance, these souls seemed to have their own consciousness, but their cultivation was not high, so there was no need to be afraid.

"My soul fire can't burn for too long. After I refined the eighth-level fire lotus, it wasn't as powerful as I imagined. Even the Qianhai Earth Heart Flame didn't rise to the seventh level. On the contrary, I felt that it was hidden somewhere in my body and I didn't completely refine it."

Haoran Zhong paused in the air for a moment, and said apologetically: "Actually... I have almost absorbed the fire lotus, so... you probably just felt full and didn't finish refining it."

Gu Chenyu's expression changed, and the fire of his soul became stronger. He cursed, "Haoran Zhong, you want me to eat your leftovers? From now on, you are only fit to eat what Erhei leaves behind. I will even pee on the unused stones to let you taste how salty it is."

"Damn, are you so vicious? I really can't play with you at all. From now on, I will have to lie and say half of what I say. I will let you know the dangers of spiritual treasures."

The two were arguing, neither willing to give in. Suddenly, they felt itchy on their backs. The tattoo that was transformed into a black dragon was actually trying not to laugh, apparently amused by their conversation.

Just as they were walking and talking and laughing, many conscious souls of great demons in the Heavenly Realm suddenly appeared in front of them. They were obviously a little surprised by the arrival of the human race. Just as they wanted to rush up and tear Gu Chenyu apart, the pressure emanating from behind made them stagnate and they were suppressed by the power of the black dragon.
