Chapter 233: The Labyrinth of Memory

"Whoaβ€”β€”!

Cracked rubble continued to fall from the top of the venue, and under the raging demonic energy, the huge fortress hanging in the air began to crumble, which frightened everyone in the fort, and for a while the ghosts cried wolf howls.

"The 'Soul Stone' actually went berserk!?What about the 'Ghost Fang Group' and their people?Why are they all gone!?"

"I finally saw that this auction was a trap!'Ghost Fang Group' wants to sacrifice all of our lives to the 'Soul Stone'!!"

"This place is going to collapse!Where's the exit!?"

……

The crowd of people scrambled to flee from the square area, almost everyone was afraid of the huge "Soul Sucking Array" in the center, only Lu Xingyue was alone against the surging crowd, stumbling in the direction of Jiang Yao and the three-legged black.

"Jiang Yao!Jiang Yao, what's wrong with you!?"

Lu Xingyue looked at Jiang Yao, who suddenly knelt on the ground in front of him, and couldn't help shouting, but he couldn't get close under the siege of the cold demon wind, and at this time, Jiang Yao couldn't hear Lu Xingyue's shout at all, and what occupied his ears was the "boy" whisper that kept popping out from the depths of his heart like a nightmare.

[It's amazing that my 'Fifth Spirit' is here...... Is this a coincidence? or ......]

"The boy" muttered, his voice full of meaning.

[Anyway, as long as I can recover my soul, then it will be a good thing for you and for me. 】

Chi You You...... You want to take advantage of me again!?

Jiang Yao gasped heavily, desperately restraining the sea of energy surging in his body.

[Heh, I said that if you want to remember the truth of the 'accident' ten years ago, you must help me retrieve the scattered three souls and seven spirits. You, there is no choice. 】

"Boy," said coldly.

[Besides, do you still have time to hesitate? Looking at the appearance of the three-legged black, it seems that it is about to die. 】

What the!?

Jiang Yao gritted his teeth and raised his head, and found that the three-legged black in front of him struggling in the "Soul Sucking Array" had gradually become weak, and faint points of light began to spread out from his chest, as if he was about to be dragged out by the golden chain. And the black phantoms around the circle were still pouring into the circle one after another, inspiring the electric light that wrapped around the three-legged black body.

Okay, I'll help you reclaim your soul! But until then...... You must cooperate with me to devour those "Thoughts Energy Bodies" and break the "Soul Sucking Circle"!

Jiang Yao clutched his chest, staggered to his feet, and stared directly at the "boy" phantom floating in front of him.

I'm going to use "our power"...... Rescue the three-legged black!

[Oh, a word is a certainty. 】

The "young man" smiled slightly, then stretched out his hand and pointed at Jiang Yao's eyebrows. Suddenly, Jiang Yao only felt that the ocean of energy in his body suddenly rippled, and a burning sensation that he had never felt before instantly spread from his chest to his internal organs, which made Jiang Yao suddenly fall into a sharp pain that was almost torn.

"Whoaaaβ€”β€”!!a

Jiang Yao roared in pain, he felt that every inch of his meridians was being torn off by the roots, and they were constantly being connected. In his gradually crumbling world of consciousness, he "saw" the phantom of the "young man" floating in from the front and fused into his body, and after the "young man" merged, the violent ocean of energy in Jiang Yao's body seemed to have a guide, and two dark purple and blood-red demonic qi kept intertwining, and accumulated into the palm of his right hand according to Jiang Yao's thoughts.

['Missing Energy Body'...... Hehe, this is a booster to improve your cultivation realm, and it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. 】

The voice of the "young man" lingered in Jiang Yao's mind, and Jiang Yao understood it without too much explanation. He reached out with a trembling hand, aiming his energy-filled palm at the black phantom in front of him.

[Are you ready?, let's ...... Let's get started!]

"Boom β€”β€”!!"

With a loud earth-shattering sound, a violent purple-red demonic aura suddenly erupted in the center of the square! Before everyone could react, they were instantly blown down by the demonic airflow that was set off, and even this suspended "Black Soul Castle" also fell apart in the scattered and rushing demonic airflow, and for a while, a sense of weightlessness suddenly attacked from under everyone's feet.

"No, look, there's the 'Black Soul Castle' up there...... It's going to fall!"

At this time, the vendors on "Siyin Street" looked up at the crumbling ink-colored "water droplets" in the sky, and their faces couldn't help but change greatly.

"Oh no, get out of the way!!"

"Be carefulβ€”β€”!

"Pound!!"

Smoke and debris rose into the sky with a violent roar, and the falling "water droplets" spread out in all directions like a tsunami! The dust storm that stirred up almost destroyed the entire "Siyin Street."

"What's going on!?"

On the long street, the frightened people looked at the "Black Soul Castle" in the rolling dust in amazement, only to hear a "rattle" sound, and the protective barrier wrapped around the "water droplet" shattered, and the "Black Soul Castle" without the protection of the barrier gradually began to collapse, but it was not only these that were shocking.

"Look! What's that!?"

Amid the exclamations of the crowd, I saw a figure waving huge black wings breaking through the wall from inside the "water droplets"! With the momentum of sweeping thousands of troops, it suddenly landed on the "Siyin Street" that was full of messes. The remnants of blood-colored electric light staggered over the torn placket of the figure, and what was reflected by the afterglow of the electric light was the three-legged black's face that was hideous from rage.

"Hmph, I really didn't expect you to be able to escape from the 'Soul Sucking Circle'. ”

A cold and bewitching voice floated from the "Siyin Street", and it was the elephant snake and the 'Ghost Tooth Group' guards who had been waiting here for a long time.

"Originally, I thought that I could finally feed some high-level sacrifices to this 'Soul Suppression Stone', but it's a pity......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Originally...... You're here for me in the first place!" the three-legged black raised his head and looked around at the surrounding guards with cold eyes, and there was lingering anger in his eyes that had not yet faded from blood. "Where did this 'Soul Stone' come from!......? Who the hell is it? Is it Tuber!?"

"Hehe, do you still have the strength to ask us......? I'm afraid I can't even stand on my feet, right?" the elephant snake glanced at the pale three-legged black, and the corners of his mouth were irrepressible sneers. "I don't care if you are a Heavenly Divine Bird or not, since you have the courage to trespass into the realm of my 'Ghost City' without permission, you have to be prepared to pay the price!"

The snake said, waving at the surrounding guards.

"All the guards obey the order!

"Don't think!"

The three-legged black eyes flashed, and a golden storm instantly wrapped around his body and swept it into the air. Under the roaring dark clouds in the sky, golden thunder began to gather rapidly, and the demonic energy emitted by the three-legged black began to expand more and more, and a huge shadow of the three-legged golden crow began to loom behind him.

"Hahahaha......! You want to show your original form at this time? Do you want to die in advance?" the elephant snake looked at the golden crow shadow in mid-air, and laughed arrogantly. "It's okay, after you die, your soul will be able to enter the 'Soul Stone' to accompany that blue bird, aren't you close friends?"

"Shut up!!" The three-legged black's eyes turned blood-red again, and he could no longer suppress the anger in his chest after being completely enraged, and pointed his demonic hand at the snake below.

"Die!"

"Whew-pound!"

Before the three-legged crow had time to make a move, he saw that the light arrow exploded in front of the two sides of the confrontation! For a while, the orange-white strong light filled the entire "Siyin Street", and even the three-legged crow was unstable in the mana fluctuations of the light arrow, and staggered to the roof below.

"Hmm...... This is?"

The three-legged crow subconsciously reached out to block the bright light, but he soon noticed that a figure seemed to be falling beside him. He looked up and turned to look at the figure, the expression on his face changing from confusion to astonishment.

"You...... Are you!?"

The figure was silent, but slowly stretched out his hand in the shocked gaze of the three-legged black......

……

"Boom......!"

The golden thunder in the sky gradually dissipated in the roar, and when the elephant snake and the others looked up at the air again, they could no longer find the three-legged black figure.

"Bastard...... He ran away!" The elephant snake gritted its teeth and yelled at the guards around it. "What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you chase after you!?"

"Elephant, elephant snake...... Black, Black Soul Castle...... Do you want to deal with it first?"

A guard on the side hesitantly pointed to the crowd in front of him who had fled from the "Black Soul Castle", and asked timidly.

"Tsk...... It would be troublesome if those people told what was going on inside......" The snake finally reacted, and cursed in a low voice.

"Leave two teams of people, control the guys who come out, and no one is allowed to leave! The rest of the people, search for the 'Black Soul Castle' with me, and we can't let go of a single fish that slips through the net!"

"Yes!"

"Smack...... Bang ......

The sound of hurried footsteps surrounded the direction of the shattered "Black Soul Castle", and at this time, in the depths of the ruined walls of the castle, a figure was half-kneeling on the ground, clutching his chest, panting heavily.

"Uh-huh......!"

"Puff...... Puff ...... Puff ......

The violent heartbeat gradually flattened with the fusion of a certain red point of light. Jiang Yao glanced at the broken string of 'bunching bells' in front of him, then closed his eyes in pain, and reached out to hold his head, which was about to burst.

"Father, this doesn't seem like the way back to camp...... Are we in the wrong place?"

The fragments of memories from ten years ago gradually put together, like old cassettes that have been restored, transmitting the voices belonging to the past to Jiang Yao's mind.

"Don't be afraid, Daddy will take you to a place. 」

Father...... It's a father's voice!

Jiang Yao's expression was grim, and in the fragments of memories that poured into his mind, he suddenly "saw" an elegant-looking middle-aged man holding his hand and slowly moving forward in the drizzly mountain forest.

"This should be around here...... Xiaoyao, you wait here for a while, Dad will explore the way, and he will be back soon. 」

The middle-aged man kindly stroked Xiao Jiang Yao's hair, then stood up, turned around and disappeared into the dense forest.

"Father, don't, don't go...... Don't leave me ......."

The accumulated uneasiness passed through the cracks of memory for ten years, and instantly poured into Jiang Yao's heart. Encouraged by anxiety, Jiang Yao's gaze began to catch up with himself ten years ago. He peeled through the layers of bushes and searched until the middle-aged man's back appeared on the edge of a cliff in front of him.

"Found it, Father......"

Before he could utter the words, his voice suddenly stopped.

He saw a long-haired woman in a white robe standing beside his father, talking softly.
