"Aaron is not desireless, nor has he been purified, or he has had an epiphany under the attack of the black pillar.

He was emotionally suppressed.

This should be a more powerful means of soul manipulation than emotional interference, and it will be more effective when it is applied to an individual with an unstable soul like Aaron.

If we are under such a soul attack for a long time, we will eventually be assimilated into a being who has no desire to attack. ”

Bai Ning's summary has some truth, but if further inferences are made on such a logical basis, there is no point in them touching the black column.

"In other words, our best choice right now is to leave this temple directly?"

Jiang Yingxue blurted out, with a slightly unwilling tone, they had been tossing in this temple for so long, did they have to leave like this?

"No, I don't.

You two stay here, and I'll go and see it alone. ”

The Black Pillar was currently in a defensive mechanism, which was an extremely dangerous situation, and Bai Ning couldn't refuse such an adventure, but he couldn't allow the other two to accompany him to death without any care.

"If you die, we'll probably die here too.

Rather than this, it is better to share the coercion from the black pillar together, so that we may be able to fight for a glimmer of hope for survival at a critical moment. ”

Regarding Bai Ning's decisive and risky decision, Jiang Yingxue didn't think that this suggestion was so benign.

This team was able to go all the way, all thanks to Bai Ning's superior personal ability, and after losing Bai Ning, Jiang Yingxue felt that she would die late at most.

Since this is the case, it is better to believe in Bai Ning's judgment and jointly bear the risk of this choice.

Jiang Yingxue also had her own decision, Bai Ning didn't say anything, and the three of them continued to dig in the direction of the black pillar quite tacitly.

As the dust blocking the black pillar grew thinner, the palpitating sense of oppression was gradually revealing its hideous fangs.

In the end, a kind of overwhelming pressure made the three of them a little breathless, and no matter how dry the air here was, they were already sweating.

"If I dig like this, I'll probably faint here at any moment."

It is very rare that Ah Long took the initiative to confess his current state, and it can be heard that he should be afraid that he will drag down Bai Ning and the others.

"It's fine.

If I remember correctly, we weren't far from the black column.

When the time comes, dig down and see if there are any rocks that we can dodge in. ”

Tired and feeling like he couldn't straighten his waist, Bai Ning gasped and comforted, this was the best result for them at the moment.

Continuing to dig forward, and even in some moments, Bai Ning felt that the sapper shovel in his hand was about to melt.

It was a strange feeling, as if what had happened to the stone was about to be repeated on the sapper shovel in their hands.

The reason why the stone melted and decomposed, which was previously used, was explained by silicon-based organisms, is this speculation wrong?

However, how could a pure soul-level attack make the iron artifact melt and decompose?

Besides, the soul attacks of the Black Pillars could even break down steel, so shouldn't their fragile bodies fall apart sooner and turn into a puddle of dust here?

Fighting physical and psychological discomfort, the trio continued to dig forward for some distance, and the sapper shovel embedded in the dust finally touched a hard object.

Bai Ning thought that this might be a stone that could be used to block the black pillar's soul attack, but when the nearby sand and dust fell, what was revealed was a black thing.

The base of the black column?

Bai Ning's heart tightened, but there was no sense of whirling in front of him, and even the strong sense of oppression in his heart did not increase in the slightest.

Isn't it part of the black column?

Bai Ning continued to dig deeper, and a larger area of black was exposed, and the vertical black stone wall looked very much like the base of a black column.

"What's going on?

We are still a few tens of meters away from the black column, is its base so big?

Besides, why don't we have the same anomaly as before? ”

Jiang Yingxue gasped and stepped on the black stone, looking a little unconvinced.

Did they come here with the consciousness of death, but all they got was a black stone blocking their way?

"What has a soul attack on us is not necessarily the black substance in front of us, but some mechanism inside the black column.

Judging from the current touch, this black substance is not a black crystal, and the metal object does not make any sound when it hits it, and the overall texture is like a kind of stone.

It's hard to tell what this thing is, so keep digging to the side and see what the hell is going on. ”

For this black substance, Bai Ning also felt very incomprehensible, the overall feeling was like a hard and brittle object, but the collision with the metal object would not make any sound, as if it completely absorbed all the energy of the impacted object in an instant.

The three of them continued to dig, and the black substance was like a wall in front of the three of them, and even if they continued to dig down for several meters, there was still no sign of termination.

Originally, if this black pillar was the core area of the entire temple, the dome of the temple naturally collapsed due to its erosive effect on the stones.

However, if this black pillar can infinitely corrode the ground of the temple, it should eventually fall on the original foundation of the temple, then the top of the black pillar should be very low.

However, in terms of the overall impression of the previous bright moment, the black column seems to be towering into the sky, straight into the halo at the top, making it impossible to tell where the top of the column extends.

A totem pillar standing in the middle of the temple, the top of which is beyond the temple, and the base at the bottom of the temple is even embedded in the ground I don't know how deep, which indicates that the temple was probably built around a black pillar.

Building a magnificent temple with a building material destined to corrode is a loss-making deal by any measure.

This kind of action, no matter how you look at it, looks like a temporary captivity, a kind of temporary seal for the helpless.

Could it be that the researchers in the ancient ruins discovered something amazing in the process of studying the soul, and through the use of the soul principle, they created a perfect spirit monster?

In order to avoid the damage of this spirit monster, the relevant researchers can only seal it in a black pillar, and build a temple with the remains of silicon-based creatures outside to further isolate and suppress it.

According to this angle, Bai Ning used a submachine gun to strafe the black pillar before, which was likely to loosen the seal of the black pillar, and the spirit monsters inside the pillar were trying to leave.

As for the whirling spirit attack before, it was just the aftermath of the impact of this spirit monster.

Even the strong light source above the head of the black pillar may just be a contingency mechanism for the ancient ruins against the spirit monsters.

In the general concept of spirits, the damage of light to spirits exists, and the special light at the top is to suppress the spirit monsters in the black column.

"Do you need to dig any further?"

After digging down for several meters, the surrounding dust slopes felt like they were going to collapse at any time, Jiang Yingxue asked pantingly with the sapper shovel.

This black column is like taking root, and there is no end in sight, and the general 100-meter building foundation is 4-5 meters, and the foundation part of this black column is obviously exceeded.

"Go ahead.

Dig to the bottom. ”

Bai Ning's persistence made Jiang Yingxue a little incomprehensible, even if they dug into the bottom of the black column, what would they do, could they still conquer the black column from below?

Even if she had doubts in her heart, Jiang Yingxue could only choose to cooperate with Bai Ning, and the three of them expanded the sand pit again, just to be able to continue digging deeper.

They dug down a few meters deeper, and the height of the exposed pedestal was about ten meters, and they were able to dig to the hard bottom of the pedestal.

With the crisp sound of the "bell", the hard stone was finally exposed, Jiang Yingxue hurriedly came over to take a look, and found that the ground was not that plane, but with an inclined amplitude, as if the entire black column was built on the top of a slope.

"The foundation collapse you mentioned earlier, if this is true in the current situation, then we are most likely already at the top of the next layer of space by now.

Judging from the current situation, the entire next layer of space has been filled with stones and dust, and even if the internal fluidity is inferred from the experience of the previous disappearance of footprints, it is only possible that there are still cavities in some areas.

In this situation, it seems difficult for us to go to other places by digging. ”

After casually figuring out the expected purpose of Bai Ning's downward excavation, Jiang Yingxue gave a certain rehearsal of the current difficult situation.

Whether it is the black columns, or the upper and lower spaces here, they all look extremely weird, and it is almost impossible to find a way out of life in the temple.

If Bai Ning can't find any secrets from the black pillars, then he should just exit the temple now and continue exploring the entire ancient ruins from other directions.

"The entire temple was built around black columns, and the collapse of the temple foundation was most likely due to the fact that the temple also had a basement floor.

The entire basement level can be very extensive, and may even radiate below the outbuildings on the periphery.

The underground fluidity of the previous dust heap was most likely caused by rat-like creatures burrowing into it.

If I'm guessing correctly, the rat-like nest is located in this hidden basement. ”

Faced with the same thing, Bai Ning's reasoning conclusion was completely different from Jiang Yingxue's, but it didn't sound like there was any chance to refute it, which made Jiang Yingxue shocked and could only silently choose to accept it.
