Today, Xiu Yi stood in the open valley, his eyes covered by the flowing length, but he could not block the deep light in those eyes.

"O Atmospheric Elf, answer my call and punish the disrespectful severely......" With a series of soft incantations, the wind elemental in the air condensed again, and the Wind Elf Blue appeared beside him.

"Wind Strike!" said Xiu.

"Shhhh

The wind moved and swept its fury across the flats, and its sharp sword stretched and contracted in the wind, stabbing at the imaginary enemy in the target, Asahi from all different angles.

Xu let out a wild howl, his body swelling in an instant, and his claws tore a strange ripple of air in the air.

Xiui's body spun in the wind, bypassing Asahi's claws and striking towards its outside. The two blazing birds hissed at the same time, spitting out large swaths of flame at Xiui.

At the same time, a high-pitched chant sounded: "In the name of the heavens and the earth, give us the power to be free from evil...... Conservation Enchantment!"

The figure shrouded by the enchantment that shone with the light of spatial energy rushed out of the sea of fire and came to Asahi's back, and then, Xiu Yi kicked Asahi hard at Asahi's **.

"Oh!" the little creature rolled in the air unwillingly, howling angrily.

Then it fell heavily to the ground and looked at Huey angrily.

It didn't expect that Xiu Yi would use a lose-lose tactic, just to kick his own **.

Xiu Yi sneered, "Do I have to use the Wind Spirit Shield to delay the time of battle? The warrior's Fighting Energy Protector can also weaken elemental damage." This is a punishment for you who are still using the instinct of Warcraft to fight and cannot comprehend combat skills. Next time you don't know how to combine * skills with combat skills, I'm going to kick you in the face. ”

The two blazing birds were very angry at Xiuyi's "unashamed words" and cried out loudly.

"I know you're not using all your strength. Xiu Yi laughed, and the wind on her body finally stopped at this point, and Lan reappeared her face. "Blue, good job. ”

Using Blue's ability to help him complete the Wind Strike, so that he can have more opportunities to use other *techniques, is what Xiui thought of after many days of training*. To this day, Xiu Yi has completely completed the preliminary plan for the combined use of the space system and the wind system.

This was the first time that Xiu Yi had tried to combine the *techniques of different departments, but later, he was confident that he could create more powerful* techniques.

Today, he is unconsciously embarking on a path of growth with a strong self-color.

In addition to practicing, Xiu Yi was full of curiosity about the jade ring that he had obtained from Abrite.

This quaint jade ring has a peculiar texture, and with his alchemist's eyes, he can't tell what it is made of with what.

As Abriit yelled at him to hand over the map and the Ring of Eaters, Huey realized that the value of the jade ring was definitely higher in Abritt's mind than Electra's notes.

But how exactly should this jade ring be used?

Over the past few days, Xiu has studied the Soul Eater Ring more than once.

But every time he paid attention to this jade ring with his heart, his soul energy would have a strong tremor feeling, as if his entire body and mind were about to be sucked into it. Each time, it was with great willpower that Huey was able to shake off the terrifying soul attraction of this crown.

The soul* technique itself ignores rank, and the will is the only reliance on the restraint of the soul* technique. That's why Xiu Yi was able to escape this thing. Considering the name of this Soul Eater Ring, Xiu Yi felt that this jade ring was likely related to the Soul Class* technique. That's why Ablit keeps it in a solemn way, rather than using it himself.

Today, Xiu Yi first blessed himself with a strong will, ensuring that he would not be corroded by the Soul Devouring Ring, and then boldly took out this jade ring to study.

Perhaps because of the long years, the surface of the jade ring is a layer of gray color, giving people a sense of historical vicissitudes. The jade ring was covered with notches, and it looked like the marks left by countless slashes and axes.

However, Xiu Yi realized that the nicks did not seem to be the result of random slashing.

The notches seem to be arranged according to a certain pattern, and each engraving has a unique connection with each other. It looks like a *array, but it doesn't know where the energy comes from.

Could it be that this jade ring was sealed by a certain array? Xiu Yi's mind suddenly had such a thought.

He hurriedly carefully examined the nicks on these jade rings, and faintly, the trajectory of these nicks was somewhat similar to the formation diagram of the power absorption * array used by Electra that he had learned from the Space Gate at the beginning.

It's just that in some ways it's not the same as that power-draining array.

Xiu Yi carefully distinguished, and now it was a change in the part of the strength attribute, and it was precisely because of this change, coupled with the extremely secret nature of the notch itself, that he couldn't recognize this * array at once.

Could it be that this *array is used to specifically seal the power of soul energy to absorb *arrays?

A burst of euphoria welled up in Huey's heart.

"Asahi!" Shue yelled.

The little one rushed to his senses, unable to figure out what was the matter.

"Stay here and don't move. Xiu Yi said, and then he shouted, "Red, green, don't let anyone come near me, I'm going to do an experiment!"

A blazing bird echoed in the sky.

The next moment, Xiu Yi took out the materials from the ring and began to arrange the * array according to the notch on the jade ring.

He didn't know if his guess was correct, but he knew that if he guessed wrong, it would be a big deal to lose a batch of materials, but if he guessed correctly, then he would have another killing weapon that could target the soul master in the future.

It's a pity that the Reims Empire probably won't have a high-level soul master to hunt him down, but in any case, it's always good to be able to increase his strength by a little more.

*The array was made quickly.

Xiu Yi moved a spell to Xu Nian in the * array: "Sink in the sea of **, revive when all things are silent, and the will of nothingness controls everything...... Spirits burn"

A spiritual energy went towards Xu**.

At the same time, the * array on the ground emitted a strong light, covering Asahi over.

Spiritual energy is like a flowing light in the array, wandering endlessly, but it does not disappear.

Sure enough, it's a power draw* array!

This is precisely the characteristic of the power draining array, which does not eliminate any attacking power, but only absorbs them and uses them.

This kind of * array is aimed at the energy attack of a single attribute, and it can be an invincible existence. Even the powerful energy storm in the Space Gate would not be able to break through the power draining array. However, attacks of different attributes can easily destroy it.

Casually released a wind blade, the * array in front of him was immediately shattered, it had completed its task, except for Liuxu, who screamed at Xiuyi.

It's very dissatisfied, why is Lao Tzu doing the test every time?

Picking up the jade ring again, Xiuyi's heart was already filled with blazing brilliance.

He knew that the sealed jade ring must have a very close connection with Electra, which was probably found by Abrite from Electra's laboratory in the first place, but this guy cunningly did not report the treasure.

No wonder he dared to kill himself in the first place, but he was also worried that he would poke this matter out.

But Ablit apparently did not attempt to open the seal of the jade ring.

Maybe it's because he knows that the consequences of breaking the seal are extremely terrible?

This jade ring that is sealed with power has affected its own soul power, what will be the result once it is opened?

Should I open the seal?

Looking at the jade ring in front of him, Xiu Yi thought repeatedly.

It would undoubtedly be the most risky decision of his life, and his fanatical admiration for Electra's knowledge, his quest for power, and the maggots of the tarsal bone that stalked him like maggots finally forced him to make a decision.

"Asahi, stay away from me. If there is something wrong with me now, use energy ** to break my connection with this jade ring. Remember, don't come near me anyway. Xiui commanded in a deep voice.

"Woo......" Asahi responded.

Perhaps he felt the caution in Xiu Yi's heart, and he also knew that this time, Xiu Yi was playing with his life.

As if looking at his own enemies, Xiui's eyes radiated a fierce momentum, and his hand lightly swiped over the surface of the Soul Eater's Ring.

A subtle fluctuation of energy swept through the jade ring like a breeze.

The power of the wind element contained in the gentle wind.

The notches on the surface of the jade ring suddenly emitted a strong light at the same moment, and a transparent circle of light floated around the ring. At the same time as the aperture soared outward, a huge stream of soul energy surged like a wave, instantly submerging Xiuyi......

The wind blows slowly, and the clouds are faint.

In that wilderness in the valley, Huey was alone.

In front of him, a jade ring floated in the air.

The bandits didn't know what was going on, they only knew that just now, the Blazing Bird suddenly threatened and drove them away from the cultivation ground. Then the light of energy in the wilderness rose to the sky, and the huge energy made the bandits feel as if someone had stomped on their hearts. Immediately after that, everyone felt an indescribable uncomfortable taste at the same time.

It was the feeling of the soul being pulled away, as if the soul was about to go out of the body.

Fortunately, this energy** came and went quickly, and it disappeared in an instant.

"What happened? Why do I feel like someone is calling me?"

"That's right, head, I feel it too, it's strange, like there's some force trying to separate my consciousness from my body. The other robber replied.

"I felt like something was going to get into my head. ”

The bandits have different opinions, but each has different feelings.

One of the older bandits hesitated and said, "I've heard that there is a *trick that is very similar to this situation. ”

"What's the *stricken?"

The bandit hesitated for a moment before uttering a single word: "Soul * Technique." ”

Soul*?

The name scared the hell out of almost everyone.

As soon as the old bandit said this, Leller's face turned a miserable green: "Are you kidding? Are you saying that we experienced the attack of the Soul * Technique just now?"

"This is impossible, the soul * technique may not be the most powerful * technique in this world, but it must be the most terrifying * technique. I don't think many of us have a strong enough will to withstand the soul energy. "Some bandits said so.

"Maybe it's because it's not coming for us. The old bandit said suddenly.

All the bandits looked into the distance at the same time.

There, Xiu Yi stood quietly alone.

Soul attacks are never flashy, and even the most ferocious soul storms only have an effect on the inside of the body and mind.

When that soul energy swept through Xiu Yi like a storm, the magic of the vortex seemed to create an energy black hole between heaven and earth, pulling Xiu Yi into it.

There was a bleak white light all around, and there was no trace of the outside scene, and the whole person seemed to be in the void.

Life seems to wander between wakefulness and dizziness, and Xiu Yi doesn't know where he is.

It's like a lucid dream, you know you're in the dream, but you don't have any relief.

In the four directions of Xiuyi, countless gates of light suddenly appeared.

Xiu Yi looked carefully, and saw that on every door of light, there was a figure flickering.

Xiui looked at the light gate on the left, where he was hard at work on the island, carefully pruning a magic plant.

He looked to the right, where the little princess's laughter rang like a melodious bell.

In front of him, Daisy and Ranti were looking at him with affection.

He looked behind him, at the killing of the Lanya Grand Theater, and he walked in the blood-stained mud like a hellish killing god......

Countless Daoguang Gates, each of which expounds an incident, which is exactly what he has experienced, there are beauty, there are killings, there are conspiracies, and there are frame-ups.

The hesitation and helplessness when he first arrived on the island, and the first recognition when he worked hard, then the release of the blazing bird, the arrival of the little princess, the ** between Neil and Pier, the conversation between himself and the demon dragon Rita, and finally the fall of Purgatory Island, the death of Abritt......

All the events, one scene after another, flickered and danced between the various light gates.

It's like a replay of an old movie, bringing people back to the time and space of the past.

It's as if a person sees different fragments in the river of time at the same time.

"What is this place?" said Xiui, shocked.

"It's a labyrinth of souls. A delicate voice suddenly rang in my ears.

Xiu Yi turned around.

I saw a golden boy standing behind him.

He looked exactly like himself, but he was much smaller.

"You ......"

"You know who I am, do you?" the boy smiled at each other.

The boy's hand flickered, and a door of light not far away suddenly moved.

Xiui looked over to the light door, and he saw that in a dilapidated house, a vaguely obese woman was beating a thin teenager desperately. The boy hid in a corner and cried silently......

With a slight wave of his hand, the light gate stepped back.

Xiui looked at the boy, "I thought you didn't exist anymore. ”

"I really don't exist anymore, and now I am just a combined projection of the Soul Eater Ring and your inner memories. The boy replied softly.

"Then why am I here?"

"The Soul Eater Ring will bring every lost soul here. ”

"I'm never confused. Huey replied.

"Are you sure?" a hint of mockery appeared in the boy's eyes, "Are you sure you're never confused?"

Xiu Yi frowned slightly.

The boy pointed to the countless doors of light around him that shimmered with the light and shadow that Xiu Yi had experienced: "Every door here represents what you have experienced. It represents what you have done in the past, and it also reflects your deep hesitation. The labyrinth of the soul is the true reflection of your inner image, and its exit lies in the true goal of your heart. If you are not confused, then what you are pursuing and what you really desire should be consistent. ”

"You mean to say that there are different pursuits hidden in these countless doors, and that only the one that truly represents my heart's desire can get me out of this labyrinth?"

"Yes. All painful memories have a meaning that they represent. There is an ordinary life, there is a high power**, there is a thirst for beautiful love, and there is also the pleasure of revenge. Are you sure which one you want the most? Remember, when you choose a door, there's no turning back. You have to face the truest feelings in your heart, and only then can you get out of the labyrinth of your soul. Only those who are able to get out of the soul labyrinth are eligible to use the Soul Eater Ring. ”

"What if I can't get out?"

"Then you will be a permanent nightmare. ”

The image of the boy faded away.

Xiu Yi was now standing alone in this space again.

In his four directions, all that he had experienced was repeated repeatedly, and he saw himself wandering through the ruined ruins of Purgatory Island, and deep down he felt the incomparably refreshing feeling of the success of revenge; He saw that he had worked hard to study the flesh puppets and fight for the survival of those young servants; He saw the pride in his heart when he killed Abulit, and the satisfaction when he was given great power; When he saw himself and the little princess walking in the jungle, he looked at Avril's affectionate eyes, and felt extremely sweet in his heart; He saw the joy of hugging left and right as he and Daislanty fell madly in love......

He sees many, many parts of the past.

Suddenly, he realized that he was not as he had imagined, and that he had never thought about the pursuit without confusion*.

The past here represents almost all the pursuits of a normal man, whether it is the pleasure of revenge, the satisfaction of counterattack, the sweetness of love, the ordinary truth, the life of ** or the peak of strength......

What should he choose?

What did his heart really desire?

The little princess's laughter is still in her ears, and she is feverish in her thirst for knowledge about Electra, and the flames of Purgatory Island are burning to the sky, and Lanya's blood is smeared all over the picture.

The trembling soul began to overwhelm, and all the memories flooded into his brain like a desperate flood, almost squeezing his mind. The noisy voices echoed desperately, sweet, crazy, fierce, vicious, like gongs and drums in unison; Dazzling images cover the field of vision, and countless human heads overlap each other.

"Ahh

He crouched down, gasping for breath. The light gate kept shining in front of him, and the picture moved faster and faster, and he gradually couldn't see or hear clearly, as if he was about to be completely lost in this labyrinth of souls......

Ever since Xiu Yi Glair opened the seal of the jade ring, the little guy Xu has been staring at Xiu Yi nervously.

It wondered why, after the seal was broken, Huey remained motionless.

He just stood there silently.

"Woo......" the little one cried, looking very confused.

Since there is no danger that Sheng Xiuyi said, should he use energy ** to isolate that jade ring as he instructed?

This complex question makes it a little difficult for the little ones to choose.

It looked up at the sky.

The two blazing birds were still faithfully maintaining order, not allowing any bandits to come close.

Two silly birds. It thinks.

Then it cautiously walked towards Huey.

It didn't seem dangerous.

It tried to touch Huey, but nothing happened.

After thinking about it, it used its claws to reach the jade ring floating in the air.

The tip of the claw touched the jade ring, and a cold chill hit the bone.

The vacated jade ring once again released a wave of powerful soul energy, which suddenly swept towards the little guy.

"Woo......" Xu's hair stood on end.

The next moment, it found itself in a void space.

It was empty, but I didn't step on any ground.

What is this place?

"Woohoo!" it cried out, "Woooooooo

No one answered it.

Countless light gates swirled around it, and Asahi was surprised to see that it actually saw its own past.

once dormant in the body of Huy Glare; was taken out by his mother and set free; freely enjoy motherly love in Rita's arms; and enjoying his care in the arms of Hue Igler; the helplessness when he was forced to cultivate demons*;

Scenes reappear at this moment.

It made it very curious.

To its excitement, among those gates of light, there was also a gate of light shining with its favorite beast.

Skinned and deboned monsters are infused with human spices, and their taste is exquisite. It remembered very well that it was the other day that Huey had taken great pains to make for it in order to reward it for successfully mastering the Vacuum Blade.

"Wooh!" cried the little one.

It rushed desperately towards the door of light, and then leapt into the door without hesitation.

In the wilderness, Xiu Yi slowly opened his eyes.

He couldn't help but laugh when he saw the little guy Xu Zheng looking at him with a confused expression.

He hugged Xu up: "Oh my God, do you know what you just did?"

Asahi is confused.

Xiu Yi smiled: "I must admit that you are the happiest monster in the world, and all adventures always belong to you." ”

"Uh......h Wow!"

"Okay, okay, I don't think you get it yet, but you did succeed, and you saved me once. Huey laughed.

Despite the preparations, Xiu Yi did not expect that the Soul Eater Ring would be able to pull the human soul into an independent space, forming a labyrinth of the soul by refracting the image of the person's own memory.

This kind of powerful and weird *magic does not exist in the human soul * technique at all, once pulled into the soul labyrinth by the soul devouring ring, unless you have enough strength to break through the barrier of the soul labyrinth, there is only one way to get out of the labyrinth, that is, like Xu, relying on instinct to do things.

This choice is not difficult for most of the less intelligent lifeforms, they just need to act on instinct. As a result, the Soul Eater Ring is ineffective against most monsters. But for human beings with complex ** and vague emotions, it is like a real killing weapon, only a trace of confusion will be swallowed by the soul labyrinth, and finally transformed into soul energy. When the Soul Eater Ring collects enough soul energy, it will generate Nightmare Spirit Species that is similar to the Elemental Spirit, but much stronger than it, and is the only summoning technique in the Soul Technique.

Amazingly, while Warcraft can ignore the effects of the Soul Eater Ring, they also don't* use the Soul Eater Ring. Because the soul of the monster is simply not enough to cause the energy fluctuations of the Soul Eater Ring.

But Asahi is an exception.

It has the ability to learn human demons*, and it has always maintained a spiritual connection with Xiuyi, and is actually infinitely close to humans in terms of intelligence. But at the same time, it is only a child, and the enlightenment of wisdom has not yet been fully opened, and most of the time it is still as simple as a blank sheet of paper.

For countless adults, the world of the soul labyrinth, which is like a terrifying hell, is a simple multiple-choice question for Asahi.

If I want to eat, I'll go. It's as simple as that.

It has a human degree of wisdom and creativity, but it does not have the complexity of human beings, it does not have the feelings that are difficult to let go, and its thoughts are simple and straightforward.

In contrast, as a human being with the highest intelligence, the more intelligent people are, the more they think, the more they will show their own **, and when he is really faced with a choice, what he cares about is not what he gains, but what he loses.

Huey was also caught up in this problem when making his choice.

He didn't know whether he was really seeking the thrill of revenge, or the ordinary life, the endless knowledge, or the power of the strong, or the sweet love or the bliss of the wilderness.

Choosing any one means giving up everything else.

As a result, the confusion of the soul arises, and for the first time, Huey begins to wonder what he is after.

That's the horror of the Labyrinth of Souls, it doesn't just wait for you to choose. The deeper your confusion goes, the more stressful it becomes, creating a vicious cycle until it destroys you completely.

As a result, Huey was nearly lost in the labyrinth of his soul.

However, the appearance of Asahi brought him a hint of change. It was at that time that the pressure on Xiu Yixian's soul labyrinth suddenly decreased, and he had a chance to choose again......

Only those who have passed the Labyrinth of Souls are eligible to use the Soul Eater Ring. Therefore, Asahi would become the owner of the Soul Devouring Ring, but no one could have imagined it. Fortunately, Xiu Yi also passed the test of the Soul Eater Ring, and he was also qualified to use the Spirit Eater Ring, but he was very helpless now, in terms of use authority, he was one level lower than Xu, that is, he could only use this terrible killing weapon with Xu's permission.

This made Xiu Yi cry and laugh, so he said that Asahi was the happiest monster in the world.

At this moment, Xiu Yi made a casual move, and the jade ring suspended in the air flew into his hand.

The Soul Devouring Ring swirled in Xiuyi's hand, shining with a faint demonic brilliance, and the bracelet that had exhausted all soul energy was now no longer the ferocious arrogance when the seal was broken just now.

No one can say how the Soul Devouring Ring is made, the alchemist will never be able to make such a powerful and terrifying **, if anyone can make it, then I am afraid it can only be a god.

Whether there are gods in this world, Xiu Yi doesn't know, but he at least knows that this Soul Devouring Ring in front of him is already equivalent to the artifact of the Soul Master.

It's just that this magic weapon consumes too much soul energy at one time. At this moment, the Soul Eater Ring used the Soul Labyrinth twice in a row, and almost all of the soul energy was consumed, and its owner needed to recharge it.

Xiu Yi tried it, and now with his second-level soul master's ability, it will take at least ten days to fill this soul devouring ring with energy once, and it will take at least ten days to meet the requirement of using it once.

Slowly placing the Soul Eater Ring on his wrist, he said:

"You know what, Xu, you're much happier than I am. At least now, the pursuit you have is still beautiful, and you are not affected and deceived by external objects. ”

"Whew. The little one shook his head and didn't care.

Under the white clouds and leisurely wilderness, Xiu Yiglaire, who walked out of the soul labyrinth, showed incomparable firmness in his eyes, and even a trace of cunning cruelty.
