Chapter 140: Soul Pond
Along the way, we didn't see any trace of the Yin soldiers, nor did we attract anyone's attention, presumably this is the Yin Spirit Leaf given by Dongzi to play a role.
But even so, we didn't dare to ask anyone, for fear of exposing the target for no reason.
At the same time, I found that in the subterfuge, we seem to be walking only on the edges. As far as the eye can see, there is always a thin ball of light, like a kind of enchantment.
Whenever we approached curiously, those thin rays of light suddenly increased in brightness, as if to warn them, wondering if this was the so-called inner layer of the Secret Realm.
We are in a hurry to travel, and we don't want to make extraneous branches, so we can only keep our curiosity in our stomachs.
Further east, Fat Man and I passed village after village, crossing valleys, plains, and rivers.
The grass and trees on the plains are luxuriant, but both the soft grass blanket under your feet and the tall trees around you are all black in color, blending in with the environment.
The feel is no different from the flowers and trees in the human world, exuding a unique herbal fragrance.
The river here is as calm as a lake, without a trace of waves, and seems to be still. But when you step on it, you can clearly feel the water flowing quickly in the middle and lower layers, which is very amazing.
But there didn't seem to be any animals in the world, at least we didn't see a single butterfly or a squirrel that was supposed to be roaming the woods.
We raced against time to rush forward, and conservatively estimated that we had walked for most of the day, and our steps became heavy, and we felt exhausted. The inhabitants of the Realm that were often seen gradually became scarce, and eventually there were no traces of people.
Looking up, the sky was as usual, and there was a dead silence in the gloomy sky, no sun or moon, not a trace of wind.
Just when our body and mind were extremely exhausted, a towering wooden sign finally appeared in front of us, with three big characters written on it: Zhensoul Pond.
The dark blue fog that was originally filled with air gradually faded, instantly giving people a sense of the vastness of the world.
Lao Bi was bored in his backpack, and when he saw that there was no one here, he flew out, fluttering his wings in the air, and screaming that he was suffocating to death.
After walking for about a few hundred meters, a large quagmire with a width that could not be seen by the eye, and a length of about a thousand meters, was in front of me and the fat man.
The edge of the pond was desolate, lifeless, and the vegetation did not grow. The black mud in the pool is thick, I don't know how many years it has been piled up, and I don't know how deep it is.
Suddenly, the hairs on my body stood on end.
The resentment has risen several times suddenly, and it is as heavy as a mountain, and it is almost overwhelming.
This place is called Zhen Soul Pond, the so-called Zhen Soul, can be regarded as an extreme trick trick. Different from transcendence, soul suppression refers to sealing and suppressing strange things, so that they will suffer and suffer forever without liberation.
Since it was mentioned, let's talk about it briefly. There are three common methods of trick hunting. The first is to persuade people to quit, which ordinary people can do, or beat gongs and drums, set off firecrackers, or cry and beg for mercy.
In the Liangxiang and Liangguang realms, there is also a custom of scolding, picking up the most ugly words to scold, the ancestors have eighteen bags, but in the final analysis, these forms want to produce the same effect, that is, to scare away the strange spirits and drive them out of a certain range.
The second is probation, which is similar to persuasion. To put it simply, it is to lay out the facts and reason with the ghost, or to fulfill the wish of the ghost.
This method requires extraordinary eloquence, straight to the tears of the treacherous soul, change the past, promise not to add chaos to the great construction of the motherland again, voluntarily annihilate the treacherous body, and then recite mantras and practices, surpass the remnant soul, and send it to the netherworld.
The third type is the soul suppression. It is also the most common thing that everyone has in movies and literary works, that is, it is simple and rude to directly beat the trick to ashes, and it does not overly resentful of the remnant soul, but directly seals it.
The monsters that were suppressed by the soul were the most miserable, and the remnants of the soul were suppressed forever, and the pain was unbearable and could not be relieved.
The first two are effective against ordinary treacherous spirits, but they are useless against fierce tricks and tricks with a certain amount of Taoism.
It should be noted that although the soul suppressor looks very tall, it is based on the strength of the soul suppressor, which is enough to crush the trickery, and will deplete the soul suppressor to a certain amount of Taoism.
It's definitely not like in the movie, all kinds of special effects were suppressed for a long time, only to find that I couldn't control it and fled in embarrassment.
In addition, because the means of soul suppression are extreme, and there is a permanent sealing characteristic, so the monster must fight with his life, once he fails, the soul suppressor will be eaten by the monster's resentment, and the path will be lost, and the body will be in a different place.
So where are these suppressed evil resentments sealed? Master had never said this to me before. But since this place is a strange world, this pool is also known as the soul pond, and I don't need to think about it to understand.
I'm going to drop a good ...... Here, it must be dangerous!
In addition, when sealing Guman Tong in Zhengzhou, I used the secret technique "Half Soul Seal" in the "Vertical Boundary Record", which is not a method of suppressing souls.
We went in the right direction, and Lao Bi and Dongzi of Zhensoultan also said it, but no one told me that it was so terrifying. Dongzi said that "there may be a bit of danger on the road", is this a bit dangerous? It's going to die at any time, right?!
Most of the people who were suppressed by the method of suppressing the soul were fierce and vicious, and the strength of their resentment can be imagined, coupled with being imprisoned, tortured and tormented day and night, how much hatred and hatred there is in it may not be described in words.
Although I know the stakes, but now that the seven-day period is approaching, my life is hanging by a thread, and time is pressing, so I can only remind the fat man to pay attention.
Lao Bi screamed in the air: "Roast!" Look at your guts! If it weren't for the adults, my mana wouldn't be able to use it, and this muddy pond would blow it up directly! Quack Quack ...... What do you think? Convincing or not? ”
I rolled my eyes, almost fainted, and I wanted to boil this fat hen into a pot of chicken soup.
After a short rest at Tan Bian, I wanted to let the little stinky fart be a pioneer, but who knew that this foodie, who had always smelled weird and couldn't pull out his legs, shook his head like a rattle at the moment, and flew into the food trick card on my chest.
When I asked her what the situation was, the little girl didn't say anything, which was really strange. I gritted my teeth, took a deep breath, and took the lead in reaching out against the mountain-like resentment in the pool.
Before I landed, I had condensed the true qi in my body in my feet, and I thought that if something was wrong, I would quickly withdraw from the shore.
Unexpectedly, this quagmire seems to be thick, but in fact, it is very tough after settling down, like stepping on the mud that has been half dried in the air.
The soles of the feet only sank a few centimeters slightly, and there was no such swampy abyss horror as imagined, and the resentment around them seemed to disappear in an instant, making people breathe freely.
I was secretly happy, slowly walked forward, and walked more than ten meters before waving at the fat man and beckoning him to come down.
We kept our distance from each other, and we were cautious at first, but we saw that we had gone most of the way and everything was normal, and our guard finally let go.
