780 Chapter 780, Soul Blade! (1)
As soon as he entered the Divine Hall, the light dimmed and the space became extremely wide.
In Yang Tianâs eyes, other than the stone floor, there were stone pillars with a diameter of three meters.
Every stone pillar was engraved with runes, and there were some beast-type reliefs. They looked very fierce.
âAs expected!â
Yang Tian glanced at the surroundings and thought to himself.
This space was indeed made up of rune arrays. Not only was the space extremely vast, even the passage of time was much faster than the outside world.
Yang Tian judged from Cheng Wu Xingyangâs description that the passage of time here was about a hundred times faster than the outside world.
A hundred times might not seem like a lot, but if one was trapped here, it would be a fate worse than death.
Sometimes, time was the most torturous thing, especially when there was no life and despair.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
This space was built by a Hall Master of the limitless divine hall who had very high attainments in Talisman Dao, in order to obtain eternal life.
The more powerful a person was, the more afraid they were of death. This was because experts had special privileges and could enjoy things that ordinary humans could not enjoy.
After this space was built, the palace master had achieved his goal. When his lifespan was about to end, he gave up his physical body and came to this palace.
Although time passed faster here than outside, it allowed the spirit body to never dissipate. With the Talisman Array, it could still possess great power.
However, it was limited to this space.
If he left this place, the spirit body would quickly dissipate.
The spirit body of the temple master who built this temple was no longer there because he could not endure such a life that was like a prison.
This was because the spirit body still had human-like emotions, such as joy, anger, sorrow, and joy. However, the spirit body could not cultivate, enjoy the pleasures of food and power, and could not come into contact with the flesh of a living person..
Later on, the previous temple masters were the same. Before they died, the spirit bodies left behind would come here. For a short period of time, they could still make do with surviving and continue living for the sake of survival. However, as time passed, they could not help but feel bored. If it was any longer, it would really be worse than death.
As the previous hall master, he had not been here for long, so he still maintained hope. He had actually known about the situation here a long time ago.
Before passing the position of Hall master to Kuo Xing, he had made Kuo Xing promise him that he would find a way to live forever so that he could regain his physical body.
In fact, after the hall master who had created this space, every succeeding hall master would ask the new hall master to do the same.
However, after so much time had passed, they still hadnât gotten any results. Then, they saw that their successor had also arrived here.
One had to know that the passage of time here was a hundred times faster than outside..
The old man who had appeared in front of Cheng Wu Xingyang previously appeared in Yang Tianâs eyes again.
For some reason, when this old man saw Yang Tian, a strong hope that he had never felt before appeared in his heart.
This was a kind of intuition, or a sixth sense. In fact, after losing his physical body, this feeling was even more accurate.
The old man trusted his judgment.
âWhatâs Your Name?â
A faint voice entered Yang Tianâs ears.
Spirit bodies were a special type of energy. They would not emit energy fluctuations, especially in such a space.
To others, the old manâs appearance would appear very sudden. However, Yang Tian and the little azure dragon had already sensed it when the old man approached.
This was because Yang Tian and the little azure dragon both possessed spiritual power.
Among the energy possessed by cultivators, only spiritual power would have an effect on the spirit body.
What the old man and the other spirit bodies did not know was that Yang Tianâs arrival was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep.
The Tiger was naturally Yang Tian and the little azure dragon who possessed spiritual power. They were naturally lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
âMy name is Yang Tian.â
Looking at the old man who had a translucent appearance, Yang Tian said with a face full of curiosity.
If he wasnât wrong, after cultivating for so many years, Yang Tian had finally seen a ghost.
Yes, in Yang Tianâs eyes, the spirit bodies of these palace masters were actually ghosts.
Actually, after the death of an ordinary human, under special circumstances, the spirit bodies that left their physical bodies would be able to remain for a very long period of time.
Without a doubt, those environments were all dark and quiet, similar to the environment here.
âYang Tian, what a strange name. You werenât originally a human from this world, right?âThe old man asked again, his tone very amiable.
Yang Tian nodded.
The old man continued to ask, âYang Tian, can you help us with something?â
Yang Tian said, âTell me about it first.â
Although Yang Tian hated the Wuji Divine Hall, the old man in front of him had no grudges with him. If it wasnât an excessive request, Yang Tian would have agreed.
âThank you!âThe old man said, âWe want you to... destroy this place. This place shouldnât exist in the first place.â
The old manâs words surprised Yang Tian.
Because after this place was destroyed, the old manâs spirit body would also disappear.
Seeing Yang Tianâs confusion, the old man began to explain.
After the old man finished, Yang Tian understood. This was actually similar to the Enlightenment he had when he first came here. At that time, Yang Tian had imagined his soul coming here after he died... but the result was very bad.
Yang Tian had come here to destroy the limitless divine hall. Once the limitless divine hall ceased to exist, this place would naturally be destroyed.
The old man obviously did not know about this.
...
Yang Tian naturally agreed to this request.
However, Yang Tian still said to the old man, âThe spirit body has dissipated. There is nothing left. It would be great if the spirit body could really be reincarnated.â
âReincarnated!âThe old man said in surprise.
The old man felt that these four words seemed to be a way to redeem them.
Reincarnation was something that only humans on Earth could say. Yang Tian casually told the old man about it.
For example, the world where the living lived was the world of the living. After death, people would go to the netherworld..
Unexpectedly, after the old man heard Yang Tianâs story, his eyes lit up and he asked excitedly, âIs there really such a World?â
Yang Tian naturally shook his head, âThe Netherworld is an imaginary world. It is a kind of comfort that humans seek. âCompared to us cultivators, ordinary humans value emotions more. âThink about it, seeing your loved ones die and cease to exist... how sad would that be. âIf they die and go to the netherworld, even if they forget about us in the next life and have nothing to do with us, they didnât disappear after all, right?â
The old man was the Temple Master of the limitless divine hall, and he was born and raised in this strange world. Naturally, he didnât understand the importance of family ties.
Therefore, he didnât get excited. Instead, Yang Tian, who was talking about this matter, became a little depressed.
The old man pondered for a moment, and suddenly, a look of enlightenment appeared on his face. He smiled and said, âI finally understand...â
...
Understand what?
In Yang Tianâs confusion, the old man turned around and disappeared in a flash.
