Soul searching?

Chai Hongyu's words almost made everyone stunned in place instantly, especially Chen Cang, at this time, his face was like the snow that had not melted in a barren state for thousands of years, and he became extremely pale in an instant.

The so-called soul searching technique is a technique that can detect the memories of others.

However, this highly functional technique is actually not profound, on the contrary, the seals, charms, and spiritual power circuits of the soul searching technique are quite simple, and they can basically be learned immediately.

But basically no one will learn this method specifically, and there are even fewer people who are proficient in this technique.

The reason is very simple - the conditions for the activation of this technique are too harsh.

If you want to use the soul search technique to spy on other people's memories, the other party must not have any thoughts of resistance and be willingly searched for souls, otherwise, even the slightest resistance will make this technique invalid in an instant.

Moreover, soul searching is an extremely painful process, and the torture suffered by the soul hunter in this process is far more than any kind of torture.

Therefore, even if the other party is willing, it is extremely difficult to succeed in the soul search technique, after all, if there is no strong willpower to resist the pain of soul searching, the soul will definitely instinctively resist, which will lead to the failure of soul searching.

What's more, the art of soul searching also comes with a great risk of death, and if you are not careful, the soul that is touched will dissipate in an instant.

The soul is the root of a person, and if the soul is annihilated, it is a question of whether or not he can even enter the six realms of reincarnation after death.

Therefore, although the soul searching technique is simple and powerful, it is completely a chicken rib.

Only those monks who are interested in soul magic will delve into this method.

Hearing that Chai Hongyu was going to use the soul searching technique, and was willing to take the huge risk of dissipating her soul to reveal her memories, just to prove Lu Chen's innocence, everyone was suddenly shocked and their scalps were numb.

This Chai Hongyu was able to do so much for Lu Chen

Not to mention confidants, even a loyal courtier, or even a Taoist companion, can't sacrifice himself to this extent, right?

In her heart, how important this Lu Chen is

And Lu Chen, who was the party concerned, was looking at the fiery red shadow who was half-kneeling on the ground not far away and asking the empress for his life, and his eyes, which were always calm on weekdays, shrank sharply at this time.

He naturally knew that Chai Hongyu, who was only two sides to him, could never have any special feelings for him, and the reason why she was so resolute was purely because of everything he had done for the people of Yuzhou.

He took a deep breath abruptly, and then said softly: "Chai girl, you and I meet in the water, why do you have to be so ......"

However, before he finished speaking, Chai Hongyu swept her beautiful eyes and looked over.

"In this world, you can do without me Chai Hongyu, but you can't do without you, Governor Lu, your talent and benevolence are the greatest hope of the people who have suffered a lot in Great Xia, as long as you are in a high position, you will be able to bless the world, so if you sacrifice in the next can save your future, in the next feeling, this must be the most worthwhile deal in the world."

"Even if you die, you have no regrets!"

Hearing this, Lu Chen's heart felt as if someone had smashed it hard, his breathing suddenly stagnated, and the obvious emotion gradually appeared behind him.

Immediately afterwards, without waiting for him to speak again, Chai Hongyu turned her head sharply and said to the empress in a condensed voice:

"I beg your majesty to fulfill it."

The moment the words fell, everyone immediately looked at the empress.

But Lu Chen suddenly bowed heavily to the empress and raised his voice: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen begs to borrow the sword of the Extreme Dao. ”

Hearing this, Qian Yiqian and the others suddenly turned pale, and their eyes gradually showed doubts.

The Sword of the Extreme?

The Human Emperor's Blade, which burned many powerful ancient secret methods? What does this guy want the Sword of the Extreme Dao to do?

The empress frowned.

"Lu Qing, what do you want to do?"

Lu Chen said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Chai Girl is such a righteous person, she shouldn't end up with a soul scattered, Wei Chen remembers that in the Sword of the Extreme Dao, there is a secret method of the Extreme Dao that can quickly heal the soul, if you really want to use the soul search technique to prove Wei Chen's innocence to Chai Girl, Wei Chen hopes to preserve the soul of Miss Chai as much as possible." ”

Hearing this, everyone immediately understood, but the gaze that looked at Lu Chen was a little strange.

The empress didn't have the slightest look of surprise on her face, obviously she had already thought that Lu Chen would say this.

"The Art of the Primal Spirit"

Lu Chen nodded.

"Exactly."

However, this time, the empress did not respond to Lu Chen's requests as before, but shook her head gently.

"Lu Qing, the Extreme Dao Secret Method needs to have enough strength to be activated, it is still too reluctant for you now, forcibly activating it will damage the fundamentals, I don't want to see you covered in blood anymore."

As she spoke, without waiting for Lu Chen to respond, the empress slowly stood up.

"So, this time, it's up to me to do it myself."

The moment the words fell, she suddenly raised her hand.

In the next second, with a burst of spatial distortion, the Extreme Dao Sword bathed in golden light appeared in her hand out of thin air.

Hearing this, Qian Yiqian and others spoke out against it at the same time.

"Your Majesty, no matter what, Chai Hongyu is the number one fierce general under Yu Jiuyuan, and he is a thief, he may find an opportunity to disadvantage His Majesty at any time, Your Majesty's golden body, how can he risk his life? Although there is a prison spirit chain, it is impossible for Chai Hongyu to break free, but His Majesty is the supreme of the world, the lord of the Middle Continent, how can he cast a spell for a thief? ”

The words fell, and without waiting for the empress to respond, Gu Simiao suddenly stood up.

"Your Majesty, let Weichen come."

As a powerhouse of the Unified Realm, Gu Simiao's spiritual power is far comparable to that of an unconventional cultivator, and with her almost ceiling-level cultivation, it stands to reason that the Extreme Dao Secret Method is not a problem at all.

The empress didn't even glance at the courtiers who were admonishing, her eyes were on Gu Simiao, and she said indifferently:

"Gu Aiqing has a heart, but the Sword of the Extreme Dao can only be used by me and Lu Qing now, except for me and Lu Qing, no one can activate the Extreme Dao Secret Method in the blade."

Gu Simiao: "."

The others wanted to persuade again, but the empress held the sword of the extreme path and walked down the jade steps.

"I have made up my mind, you don't need to persuade again, if anyone makes noise again, he will be punished for the crime of obstructing the holy decision!"

As soon as these words came out, the Taiji Hall gradually quieted down.

A lesson from the previous car, a teacher from the back.

Zheng Zhong had just been dragged away not long ago, and now I don't know if he was directly beaten to death by the court staff, even if he didn't die, he would have to shed his skin, they didn't want to follow Zheng Zhong's footsteps and inexplicably be accused of such a crime.

In the end, there were only a dozen or so imperial historians and ministers who were still insisting, but they only had the right to admonish, and if the empress who held great power did not listen to their advice, they had no way at all.

After suppressing the ministers who were in the way, the empress slowly walked up to Lu Chen.

Lu Chen opened his mouth and wanted to say something more, but the empress didn't give him a chance to refuse, and said directly to him:

"Lu Qing, if I remember correctly, the soul search technique can use itself as a medium to outline all the memories related to the caster in the target soul body, and present them on the shadow transmission technique, this method is quite consuming spiritual power, if you launch the Yuan Spirit Technique at the same time, it will definitely not last long, and you won't see much memory, let alone prove your innocence, in this way, Miss Chai's kindness will be all wasted."

Hearing this, Lu Chen subconsciously glanced at Chai Hongyu, and finally put away the careful thoughts that had arisen subconsciously and nodded.

"In this way, there will be Your Majesty."

The empress smiled and said nothing.

And seeing that Lu Chen and the empress looked like a monarch and a minister, Chai Hongyu also smiled, and her smile was full of pure joy.

and, liberation.

Then the empress asked people to go to the spirit library to get some high-grade spirit stones, charms, and valuable heavenly and earthly treasures such as soul grass, and arrange various top-level magic circles in the Taiji Hall to minimize the risk of soul searching as much as possible.

It's just that no matter how well prepared she is, in the process of searching for souls, the pain that Chai Hongyu will suffer will not be weakened a bit.

After all, all they can do is to treat and allow the soul to recover quickly, not anesthesia.

To what extent can it be read, whether it can read the ironclad evidence that proves Lu Chen's innocence from the huge memory, and make the Lu faction completely dead, the key depends on Chai Hongyu's willpower.

The people in Ziji City were extremely efficient, and the empress gave an order, and it didn't take long for many palace people to move the materials, and the array mages quickly arranged them.

Soon, everything was ready.

Seeing that the formation not far away was starting to operate, Chai Hongyu stood up, and then walked over without hesitation.

"Chai Girl."

Lu Chen suddenly called softly.

Chai Hongyu suddenly stopped and turned to look at Lu Chen.

"What's wrong? Is there anything you'd like to say? Governor Lu. ”

"This official is no longer the governor of Sui and Yu."

Lu Chen subconsciously corrected it.

Chai Hongyu shook her head.

"I didn't say that you are the governor of the two states."

As she spoke, she raised her head slightly, looked at Lu Chen's clear eyes, chuckled, and said:

"I call you the Governor because you are the only Governor of Central Continent who can bless millions of miles in my mind."

Hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but be slightly stunned, these words that obviously revealed indescribable reverence made him feel a little heavy in his heart, he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

There are a thousand words in the belly, but they are like a fish in the throat.

When the empress on the side heard this, especially when she heard the word "Governor of Central Continent", she narrowed her eyes inexplicably, and a deep smile flashed in her eyes.

Governor of the World... What......

"If Governor Lu doesn't have anything to say to him."

Stunned, Chai Hongyu lowered her eyes slightly inexplicably.

"Then I'll go first."

Lu Chen came back to his senses in an instant, then shook his head, shook off the distracting thoughts in his mind, and then said softly: "Miss Chai, you can take the initiative to surrender to the imperial court, and you are here to prove your innocence, the official is grateful, but please also ask Miss Chai to do what she can, you don't owe anything to the official, you don't have to do everything for the official." ”

After a pause, he added:

"Don't say who is important and who is insignificant, and it is worth exchanging light for heavy, there is no one in this world who is not important, and people who do not value themselves are not worthy of being valued."

What Lu Chen said at this time only had a pure original intention, and had no other purpose at all.

Hearing this, Chai Hongyu couldn't help biting her lip lightly.

After a few moments, she nodded slightly.

"Well, I can save it."

With that, she turned around again and walked forward with light steps, without a trace of confusion in her moving eyes.

Everything is so taken for granted.

Looking at her back walking towards the newly arranged formation center, Lu Chen sighed inexplicably.

"Let's go."

With a fragrant wind coming, the empress's voice slowly sounded in her ears.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Lu Chen responded, followed behind the empress, and at the same time quickly built the Indian form and spiritual power circuit of the soul searching technique.

Don't look at the fact that he rarely casts spells by himself, his strength is actually not bad, at least far beyond the vast majority of fellow cultivators, and when he needs to cast spells, he is completely worthy.

The Taiji Hall is very large, and it is more than enough to accommodate one or two hundred thousand people.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, who had nothing to do with spell casting, gathered a hundred meters away from the big array, looking nervous, serious, or expectant at the formation that was emitting bursts of cyan blue light not far away.

Only Gu Simiao, who was the general of Shenwu, stood beside the empress, and with the strong power of the powerhouse of the Guiyi Realm, he acted as a super guard.

It didn't take long for Chai Hongyu to come to the eye of the array.

Then she slowly closed her eyes, her whole body relaxed, and let the floating inscriptions around her converge on her.

In the next second, her whole body slowly rose in the flow of spiritual power that surged out from the eyes of the array, and finally suspended quietly in midair.

"Yuan Ling's Technique!"

The empress suddenly snorted softly, and at the same time raised the Extreme Dao Sword in her hand.

Sou!

With a crisp sound, the Sword of the Extreme Dao suddenly shone brightly, and then a beam of blue brilliance flew out of the Sword of the Extreme Dao and landed on Chai Hongyu in an instant.

"Uh-huh."

That brilliance instantly melted into Chai Hongyu's body, fusing with the soul in her body.

The sudden influx of power made Chai Hongyu subconsciously snort.

Compared to Lu Chen's appearance of rushing blood almost every time when he cast the Extreme Dao Secret Method, the empress, the true master of the Extreme Dao Sword, was obviously in a much better state when she cast it, and her pretty little face not only did not have the slightest hideous color, but instead looked a little easy.

Since the empress had made a move, Lu Chen naturally would not hesitate any longer.

He first took a deep breath, then clasped his hands together suddenly, and at the same time, his eyes suddenly condensed, and the spiritual power in his body surged wildly, and the extremely functional, but extremely incomparably weak spell was instantly activated-

Soul Searching!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

With the rapid evaporation of spiritual power, a strange and incomparably strange energy quickly gushed out from Lu Chen's body, and flew towards Chai Hongyu not far away along the magic circle under his feet.

The moment the two touched, the shadow transmission array behind Chai Hongyu instantly operated, and a light curtain suddenly appeared.

And at the same time as the picture appeared in the light curtain, Lu Chen suddenly felt that the sky was spinning, and the consciousness of the whole person quickly shifted in the endless darkness.

When he regained consciousness again and his vision became clear, everything in front of him had completely changed to a different appearance.

The splendid and spotless Taiji Hall disappeared completely, and the well-dressed beasts of the Manchu Dynasty were gone, replaced by an endless red land shrouded in yellow sand, and the victims who were so thin that they could see their bones, dressed in tattered, moldy, and blackened linen clothes, and even had no clothes.

Hungry...

Extreme hunger struck me without warning, and my stomach felt as if it had been burned by fire.

At the same time, there was a constant feeling of indescribable powerlessness in the body, and under the extreme hunger, not only was it completely unable to lift its energy, but its brain was also groggy.

Lu Chen instinctively wanted to make a move, but found that although he was conscious, had five senses, and could think, he did not have the dominance of this body at this time.

It's an amazing feeling.

Soon, he came back to his senses.

"Is this the effect of the Soul Searching Technique?"

Since very few people can perform the Soul Searching Technique, and even if it is successfully performed, the duration is quite limited, so there is very little information about the Soul Searching Technique, even if it is Lu Chen, who is well-read, he only knows a little bit.

Among them, naturally including the effect of being able to immerse yourself in the other party's life when the soul searching technique is cast.

After a while, he slowly gathered his mind and carefully felt everything Chai Hongyu had experienced.

And at this moment, a rustling sound suddenly sounded in his ears.

After a few breaths, a weakened human voice rang out.

"Lao Chai, how are you preparing over there?"

"Hmm..."

The respondent's voice was a little choppy, and he didn't know if he was too weak or hesitating about something.

"Mother-in-law was broken away by me, let's now... Oh no, you can do it in half an hour......"

"Hey! Look at your mother-in-law's mother-in-law, I can tell you, my tiger is in front of the Yellow Disaster (not a typo, the Yellow Disaster is a kind of spiritual disaster), but the famous fat boy in our village, if it weren't for the good relationship between the two of us, I wouldn't have exchanged it with the girl who didn't have a few taels of meat in your family. ”

Hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but be stunned.

In the next second, his heart shook suddenly, and a noun that occasionally appeared in history books in his previous life and only understood the meaning, but had no specific concept, instantly appeared in his mind-

Eclipse of each other!

As soon as I thought of this, a strong fear suddenly rose from the depths of my heart.

Even if he knew that this was just the world in Chai Hongyu's memory collection, it would not affect reality, even if his current body, which was probably Chai Hongyu, was eaten, he would still return to the real world unscathed.

But this instinctive fear still spread uncontrollably and quickly through every corner of his heart.

This. Is that Chai Hongyu's life?

It is hard to imagine that Chai Hongyu, who has the blood of the Vermilion Bird in her body and has awakened such a powerful fiery red spiritual power, would have such a miserable past.

Time in the memory world flows very fast, and it didn't take long for Lu Chen to witness this happen fifteen years ago through Chai Hongyu's perspective, because of the inaction of the imperial court, millions of people in Tianxuan Province died tragically in the yellow sand that covered the sky, and it was also the biggest stain on Emperor Yuanzhi's life.

This was the most important turning point in Chai Hongyu's life.

Not long after, Lu Chen saw that in the endless yellow sand, a thin woman suddenly went crazy and rushed towards this side desperately.
