After about five minutes, Cheng Yifan smiled as if he had an understanding: "It's really mysterious, thank you seniors for teaching." ”

"Oh, you already get the idea?" The middle-aged male voice asked in surprise.

"Except for a small part of the spirit art that I can't figure out, I can understand both the spirit and the soul." Cheng Yi Fan Hao replied immodestly.

"Okay, good, this magic is a fragment, you have such a comprehension, it is far beyond ordinary people; Thanks to this thousand-year-old spiritual fruit, it not only helped you break the soul barrier, but also helped open up a spiritual path, although this spiritual path is not obvious, but it is a spiritual path after all, and maybe it can help you break the soul realm and reach the mysterious spiritual realm in the future; Hahaha, these 600 years have not been in vain. The middle-aged man laughed happily, and his laughter was full of yearning.

"Senior, what is the soul barrier, what is the spirit realm?" Cheng Yifan asked impatiently.

"You are really anxious in this future life, don't worry, don't worry, the coming days are long, I will explain to you slowly, you have more important things to do now."

"It's a long time coming, isn't it, this thing doesn't want to trap me here, does it?" Cheng Yifan thought secretly in his heart.

"You little child, so rude, three hundred years ago, your ancestor Yuan Chengzhi didn't dare to be so unreasonable to me, you are always called things and things, what kind of system." The middle-aged male voice reprimanded.

"It can really hear what I'm thinking", Cheng Yifan muttered a little embarrassed.

Then he asked, "Senior, how should I address you?" ”

"This"

The middle-aged male voice was silent for a few seconds and then said, "Your ancestor strayed into this place like you three hundred years ago, and then got my true inheritance; Now that you have also learned the Heart Sutra of the Soul Technique, naturally you can no longer be called a master and an apprentice, so you can call me an ancestor. ”

"Ancestor?" An appropriate title indeed! Cheng Yifan secretly praised in his heart.

Then he called out politely: "Ancestor"

The middle-aged male voice didn't answer, as if he was thinking about something, and as if he was so moved that he couldn't speak.

"Yifan, what ancestor? Is it a human or a ghost? Although Zhao Yawen couldn't hear the middle-aged man's voice, he guessed five or six percent from Cheng Yifan's words. Feeling that Cheng Yifan's nervous expression had eased, she interrupted.

"Oh, Yawen, she is a soul consciousness, what is the soul consciousness, I can't explain it for a while, you can call it the ancestor, it was a misunderstanding just now, it has no ill will towards us, you can rest assured of this." Cheng Yifan pointed to Hantan and said.

Hearing Cheng Yifan's words, Zhao Yawen finally breathed a sigh of relief, and a heart hanging in the air fell down steadily, coupled with exhaustion, he suddenly felt weak, and his body couldn't help but go limp.

helped Zhao Yawen to sit down next to the furnace, and Cheng Yifan re-lit the fire that was extinguished by water; and told her the general content of the previous conversation with "Old Ancestor". Except for the soul technique, Cheng Yifan explained every detail very carefully.

After listening to Cheng Yifan's explanation, Zhao Yawen's uneasy mind finally calmed down, revealing a long-lost smile. Her intuition told her that this so-called Ancestor was not a threat to them.

"Ancestor, aren't you able to unlock the barrier, why don't you unlock the barrier and communicate directly with me?" Zhao Yawen said calmly towards Hantan. In fact, she was still scared, after all, it must be a ghost-like spirit.

"Housheng, your girlfriend seems to be weak, but I didn't expect that her courage is not small, hahaha; You tell her that my body is frozen under the cold pool, and I can't use soul magic to break through this barrier. Old Ancestor said.

Cheng Yifan conveyed the ancestor's words to Zhao Yawen.

"Yifan, it's lying to you." Zhao Yawen said to Cheng Yifan in a low voice.

Cheng Yifan was about to open his mouth to ask Zhao Yawen when, when he heard Zhao Yawen shouting loudly at Hantan: "Ancestor, it's okay for you to lie to Cheng Yifan like this, it's a bit far-fetched to lie to me." It was not only Yuan Chengzhi who fell into this cave back then, but also Chen Qing, why could Chen Qing hear your voice, but I couldn't? ”

"Hahaha, you girl, you are really smart, how did you guess that Chen Qing could hear my voice." The voice of the ancestor sounded in the cave, and at this time, not only Cheng Yifan, but also Zhao Yawen heard this voice clearly. The ancestor who was exposed to the conspiracy still unlocked the barrier to Zhao Yawen.

Although Zhao Yawen had made sufficient preparations, he was still startled when he heard this voice.

After stabilizing his mind a little, Zhao Yawen replied: "Don't hide it from the ancestor, I guessed it from Chen Qing's sentence "Leaving the jade flute alone and loving Qingtan".

I guess the real purpose of Chen Qing leaving the jade flute is to alleviate your old man's lovesickness for them. Just ask, if she can't even hear your voice, how can she have feelings for you?

At this time, the ancestor in the cold pool was using soul magic, it wanted to sense Zhao Yawen's mind, but unexpectedly the induction was isolated by a force, and the ancestor couldn't sense it with all his strength.

"This girl is not simple," the ancestor said secretly.

After being silent for a moment, the ancestor asked, "Then how do you conclude that this jade flute belongs to Chen Qing and not to Yuan Chengzhi?"

"I once saw the portraits of Yuan Chengzhi and Chen Qing in my grandfather's study, and Chen Qing had piccolo hanging on her waist, so I guessed that this was what she was good at," Zhao Yawen replied truthfully.

"Yes, I've seen it in my dreams." Cheng Yifan remembered the two paintings in the Gao family ancestral hall and added.

Although there was nothing wrong with Zhao Yawen's answer, because the induction was blocked, the ancestor still had concerns in his heart and did not dare to fully trust her. It's a pity that its soul power is limited at this time, otherwise......

Thinking of this, the ancestor smiled and said: "Your girl is much smarter than my apprentice, I just hope you don't bully him in the future!"

"Ancestor, you misunderstood," Cheng Yifan and Zhao Yawen said in unison.

"Hahahaha" Old Ancestor just laughed, but did not answer, and there was a deep meaning in the laughter.

After the atmosphere was awkward for more than a minute, Zhao Yawen couldn't help but ask, "Ancestor, why are you deceiving us?" ”

"This, you girl, is really unreasonable." The ancestor was exposed to the conspiracy and was speechless, so he could only cover it up with accusations.

Silence, tens of seconds of silence.

Then, the ancestor said: "That's it, that's it, it's selfish to deceive you, my true body is like being trapped at the bottom of the deep pool today, the reason why I want to deceive you is because I want Cheng Yifan to rescue me."

"Then why didn't you let Yuan Chengzhi rescue you in the first place? I'm afraid the bottom of the cold pool is not simple, right? What you can't even get rid of, wouldn't it be in vain to inherit a fan? Zhao Yawen's tone was stiff and aggressive, maybe she was careful of Cheng Yifan's safety, she didn't have any fear at this time.

"Hahaha, girl, for the sake of you worrying about my apprentice grandson, I don't care about you. Although the bottom of this deep pool is full of dangers, it is full of rare opportunities and treasures. When I tell you what happened, it will not be too late for you to draw conclusions. Old Ancestor smiled.

Cheng Yifan was worried that Zhao Yawen would make disrespectful remarks again, which would anger the ancestor, so he hurriedly said, "I want to hear the details, I want to hear the details." ”

"Hahaha," Old Ancestor laughed.

After more than a minute of silence, the voice of the old ancestor Cangsang came from the bottom of the pool:

As you might guess, I am Zhu Yunwen, the Emperor of Jianwen. When Zhu Di rebelled against thieves and attacked the palace, I knew that the general trend had gone, and I had no shame to face the ancestor emperor, so I set fire to myself in the palace, how could I be rescued by someone at the moment of life and death.

It turned out that the emperor had long expected that I would have such a catastrophe, arranged a way for me to leave, and left a letter with me.

From the letters of the former emperor, I learned that when Fu Youde conquered Yungui, he hid a large amount of gold and silver treasures and an ancient secret technique called soul art in the deep mountains of Yungui, and let his confidant He Kuan lead people to guard it.

When the ancestor learned of this, he asked Fu Youde to seal the souls of the five founding powers in the five artifacts and hide them here.

In the later years of the ancestor, because he was worried that Fu Youde would rebel and that this secret technique was too harmful, he found a reason to kill Fu Youde.

Fu Youde dispersed his soul to show his loyalty, and his spiritual consciousness was hidden in the Qiankun chessboard.

I didn't want to leave, but I was knocked unconscious by the guard Wang Yue and forcibly taken away. Then Wang Yue and I fled to Yungui with the Qianlong chessboard and found the treasure.

At that time, my appearance was ruined, and the fire poison attacked my heart, so I could only live in this cave and take advantage of the cold pool.

Two years later, He Kuan learned that his benefactor Fu Youde had been executed by his ancestors, so he asked him to hunt me down and kill Wang Yue; In order to protect me, Wang Yue tore up with the He family for a day and a night, and before he died, he blocked the trap door so that the He family could not enter the cave, so that I was saved from this cruel life.

At that time, although I had learned the soul technique, I could not leave this cave. Fortunately, I opened a dead door to the north and entered the "Realm Spirit" space, so that I could barely survive here.

Five years later, I achieved a great soul technique, and found a passage out of the hole under the deep pool, so I threw myself into the cold pool to find an exit.

Who knew that the inside of the cold pool was extremely cold, and my body could not withstand the cold temperature, so I was soon frozen to death in the cold pool.

Because of the great completion of soul art, I can gather souls and not disperse; But despite this, if I don't have a living body attached to it for a long time, my soul consciousness will also dissipate; I wanted to find a random creature to attach, but I was worried that the creature here would have a low level and short lifespan, and I would not be able to complete the attachment.

I was unwilling to let my soul dissipate, so a few days later, when my soul body dissipated, I entered the deepest part of the cold pool.

In the deepest part, I found a frozen creature, and what was even stranger was that the creature still had the breath of life. Then I infused my soul into the creature. He slept in the ice for three hundred years, and did not wake up until he met Yuan Chengzhi.
