Chiping Castle, underground of the Black Dragon Bar.

Shen Yuan took the black token from Li Shi's hand, came to the side wall of the office, and gently shook the token in his hand, and the smooth side wall quietly disappeared, replaced by a pitch-black hollow, and he couldn't see anything behind it.

His spiritual power clearly sensed the blockade of space, and at the other end of this pitch-black void was an unclear space debris.

Li Shi nodded lightly, "Go ahead." Do your best, and I'll help you take on the excess grievances. ”

Shen Yuan took a deep breath and stepped into the dark void.

This is a black smoky heaven and earth, the area is not large, only about 500 meters in radius, similar to the size before the space of the gods.

In the center of the Black Dragon Secret Realm, there is a statue of a black dragon, the whole body is dark, the dragon scales and the dragon body do not reflect a trace of light, the dragon horns are grand, the wings are spread and the four claws are in the air, as if they are pounced on the enemy in front of them.

The black dragon's eye socket was inlaid with two scarlet gems, in which the divine light flowed, as if there was a divine mind like a living thing.

Shen Yuan saw the statue of the black dragon hidden in the depths of the black smoke for the first time, his eyes touched the scarlet eyes, and he felt that his brain was blank, as if a thunderclap sounded in his ears, and it lasted for a long time.

A scarlet mystical symbol floated out from the center of the black dragon statue's eyebrows, and slowly fell towards Shen Yuan's eyebrows.

Shen Yuan's eyes were still distracted, and he didn't react at all, allowing the scarlet mystical symbol to fall into the center of his eyebrows, pass through the wall of his knowledge, and sink into the depths of his ocean of spiritual power.

This scarlet symbol is full of strange bewitchment, erosion, and assimilation power, it is definitely not a good thing, Shen Yuan didn't expect this kind of evil thing to appear in the black dragon secret realm before he came in, and he was caught off guard, and was directly hit by the eyes of the black dragon statue, how could he resist the invasion of this scarlet symbol in the confusion?

Just when this scarlet symbol was getting closer and closer to Shen Yuan's soul origin creeping at the bottom of the sea of knowledge, and when it was about to be successful, a clear sword sound resounded through Shen Yuan's sea of knowledge.

A dark cyan sword-shaped war paint fell from the sky, and it was stabbed right on the scarlet symbol!

Shen Yuan's dazed mind also suddenly came back to his senses under this sword roar, and he immediately realized that something was wrong. He condensed all the soul origins in the sea of consciousness into a soul form, and looked in horror at the endless collision of scarlet symbols and dark cyan sword-shaped war patterns in the sea of consciousness.

"What the hell is this??" Shen Yuan scolded angrily, feeling a chill in his vest.

He thought that in the past two years, he had learned about Black Dragon City and Li Beihui. But now he knows that what he doesn't know is probably far beyond his imagination.

This Black Dragon Secret Realm should be the safest place in the entire Black Dragon City, even if the earth is destroyed, this space debris can exist independently for a long time, providing a shelter for the leader of the Black Dragon City. But it was such a place that launched an attack on him, the genuine black dragon successor who entered it with a token in hand, and the sinister intentions hidden behind it were simply outrageous.

For the first time, Shen Yuan began to wonder if he was right to promise Li Beihui to take over the position of leader.

The scarlet symbol has strange attributes, but its strength is surprisingly strong, and it can actually compete with the sword-type war pattern in Shen Yuan's sea of knowledge, and even the sword-type war pattern is faintly suppressed, which makes Shen Yuan secretly speechless, and his heart is even more vigilant.

The spirit sacrifice seal in his soul embodiment hand condensed, and the dark cyan spiritual power around him surged, condensing into two dark cyan wolf souls beside him, one left and one right, struck towards the scarlet symbol, and wanted to work with the sword-shaped war pattern to eliminate it!

But to Shen Yuan's surprise, as soon as the two dark cyan wolf souls approached the scarlet symbol, they were directly sucked in by two red lights, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

The scarlet symbol suddenly shone brightly, as if it had been injected with a heart booster, and it actually directly repelled the sword-shaped war pattern and rushed towards Shen Yuan's soul embodiment!

Shen Yuan was shocked, how strange was this symbol that could devour his huge amount of spiritual power in the blink of an eye and turn it into his own use?

The speed at which the scarlet symbol rushed was extremely fast, and Shen Yuan didn't have time to think about it at all, the soul embodiment turned into a dark cyan streamer, and he actually escaped through his tenacious knowledge wall.

Seeing that Shen Yuan's eyebrows flashed blue, a dark cyan soul image had appeared in front of his physical body, standing opposite his physical body.

Shen Yuan's physical body was closed with his eyes closed at this time, motionless. The soul embodiment has a lively expression, and it is obvious that all consciousness has left the body.

Out-of-body soul, this is the signature ability of the soul walker, although Shen Yuan has not changed to a soul walker, but as the only elemental priest in the world who has mastered the true inheritance of the soul walker, he can still do the soul out of body for a short time without causing any harm to himself.

If it is an ordinary person, even if it is a strong person in the Heaven Realm, the soul origin is out of the protection of the sea of consciousness and exposed to the big world, it is like a candle in the wind, but it will dissipate and die in a moment.

Even if the extreme artistic conception is strong, it can only be maintained for a while longer. It is only when he reaches the holy realm that he can solidify the origin of his soul through various means, make it qualitatively transformed, and be able to become an incarnate existence, and travel between heaven and earth without his body, which is already a means that is close to supernatural powers.

Shen Yuan's soul embodiment carefully avoided the eyes of the evil black dragon statue in the depths of the secret realm, and pointed at the eyebrows of his body, feeling the movement in the sea of consciousness.

The scarlet symbol seemed to have lost its target, scurrying around in the sea of Shen Yuan's knowledge, searching for the soul origin, while the dark cyan sword-shaped war pattern was like an enraged courtyard dog, chasing after the scarlet symbol, letting out bursts of annoyed sharp sword roars.

Shen Yuan frowned slightly, and said in his heart that he had taken advantage of the loophole by mistake and discovered a weakness that even the creator of this symbol must not have noticed.

The target of this symbol seemed to be Shen Yuan's soul origin, and when there was no soul origin in the sea of consciousness, it was at a loss.

Under Shen Yuan's control, the sword-shaped war paint quieted down and hovered again in the sea of knowledge, and the scarlet symbol was still churning in Shen Yuan's sea of knowledge, looking like he refused to give up.

"What the hell...... Do you want to manipulate my will?" Shen Yuan frowned, and his mind turned quickly, connecting all the plausible things.

Zhang Linfeng, who had strayed into the secret realm of the black dragon, suddenly became crazy, it seemed that it was not the right time, it was caused by the influence of this black dragon statue.

The reason why Li Beihui, who has a profound and knowledgeable realm, showed some kind of fanatical emotion in the previous conversation was not blind worship, but because he had already fallen for the trick of this scarlet symbol, leaving a mind in the soul origin that did not belong to him!

As for the Gathering Grievances and Hidden Virtue Array in this Black Dragon Secret Realm, I'm afraid it's not as selfless as it looks on the outside, so sacrificing one's life for righteousness, nine times out of ten it is the source of energy for this black dragon statue!

"So...... It is very likely that from the beginning of the existence of Black Dragon City, every Black Dragon Leader was tricked when he entered the Black Dragon Secret Realm for the first time...... Although he retains his own consciousness, he has unwittingly become someone's pawn?"

The more Shen Yuan thought about it, the more he felt that a cold air penetrated the soles of his feet from the top of his head. What a big stroke, what a grand layout, spanning a long period of time, playing with countless people in the palm of their hands, just for the day when the anchor appeared!?

"Who the hell is it...... Can you do such an earth-shattering layout......" Shen Yuan muttered, a little afraid to think about it.

Since the first day he returned to Earth, he had been caught in this big net and became a pivotal piece on the chessboard, and it was not until today, two years later, that Shen Yuan realized this......

"Although Zhang Linfeng is crazy, the crazy things he said are not necessarily fake......"

"But Li Beihui is afraid that because of the influence of the black dragon statue, he can't realize some of the truths in Zhang Linfeng's words at all......"

"As for the rest of the people in Black Dragon City, they are not qualified to know the truth...... Wait, there's a guy ......"

Li Shi...... Elder Li has always behaved extraordinarily, even Li Beihui of the Holy Realm is not as good as him. Does he know the true secrets of the Black Dragon Secret Realm?"

All kinds of thoughts came flooding back, and Shen Yuan was crazy for a while.

After a while, Shen Yuan shook his head vigorously, "The top priority is to solve the nonsense symbol in the sea of knowledge, and everything else needs to be considered in the long run...... I have to go out to see Cheng Ruan quickly, the current situation, no one can break it except her. ”

Shen Yuan was shocked, knowing that his out-of-body state could not be maintained forever, and immediately refocused his attention on the scarlet symbol that was frantically scurrying in the sea of knowledge.

This scarlet symbol was very different from the sacrificial seal that Shen Yuan was familiar with, and it was not any method he was familiar with at all, but this did not affect Shen Yuan's research and understanding of this symbol.

Thanks to the research on the inheritance of soul walkers during this time, Shen Yuan now knows everything about topics such as spiritual power, soul, and sea knowledge. Although the scarlet symbol is strange and strange, it is not difficult to try to guess and learn some of its functions once you know what it is trying to achieve.

“...... It's to leave some subconscious in the soul source...... But the caster also wants the recipient to retain his or her own subjective consciousness and have his own opinion on most things......"

"In order to ensure that the strangers who enter will still be hit, regardless of the level of the realm. The power contained in this scarlet symbol is powerful and condensed, and the level is very high, so that I can suppress the sword-type war paint in my sea of consciousness......"

"If you want to ensure your own strength, but also ensure that you don't have too much influence on the recipient, then this symbol must have some kind of self-regulating function, which can dissipate excess power after achieving your desired result......"
