Chapter 256 The Base of the Soul Nourishing Tower Appears

Gu Ming had noticed something was wrong with his body beforehand, so he asked the old man in the green robe for help. Who knew that the Wilderness Demon King would suddenly attack? Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened, otherwise he would have regretted it.

I never imagined my health would be this bad. If it weren't for the old man in front of me, I really wouldn't have woken up this time.

"Come back with me, there might still be hope for you."

The old man in the blue robe spoke slowly, his tone tinged with reluctance.

"It's no use, it's too late."

"I used that forbidden technique to reverse life and death in order to live a little longer."

"The day I really can't hold on any longer, then it's time for me to leave."

Such heavy words, yet spoken by Gu Ming, sounded so light.

The old man in the green robe also knew what the forbidden technique Gu Ming mentioned was. It was a mysterious scripture that the human race had captured during a secret realm exploration many years ago!

Its origin is untraceable, its source unknown, making it incredibly mysterious and a true miracle.

However, the price of cultivating the mysterious scripture was too heavy, to the point that all those who cultivated it died tragically, and it was listed as a forbidden technique.

Burning all of one's life potential in exchange for maintaining the same level of power.

This is just the most basic price to pay.

From now on, every second you live is a borrowed moment from heaven. Every second will bring terrible pain, and this pain will become more and more intense, from your physical body to your soul, until you can no longer endure it.

And that will be the time of complete death.

Only when their lifespan is nearing its end and they are about to perish will human powerhouses be forced to risk trying this forbidden technique in order to prolong their lives.

After all, the longer they live, the safer their city will be.

The old man in the green robe had seen many elderly people who were nearing the end of their lives practice this secret method, but the longest they could persist was only a few months before they died in endless pain.

Perhaps then, death will be the only relief.

He observed Gu Ming's body and realized that he had been maintaining this state for quite some time. One could imagine how intense the pain he was experiencing was, and how strong his willpower was to keep him going.

"Does it hurt?"

The old man in the blue robe asked with some reluctance.

"It hurts a little!"

"But you can just bear with it."

Gu Ming did not continue the topic. He knew that his condition could not be changed. He stood up and seemed to have returned to the invincible city lord of Jianghai City.

The old man in the blue robe knew, of course, that it was impossible to just endure it; the pain would only intensify.

"It's perfect timing that you're here. There's something I need your help with."

Gu Ming thought of the unconscious Fang Fan and brought the old man in the blue robe to his side to see if there was any way to wake Fang Fan up.

The moment the old man in the blue robe saw Fang Fan, he couldn't help but notice him.

With his abilities, he could certainly tell Fang Fan's current age and strength.

At such a young age, he has already reached the level of a town general, and his rank is not low.

"Champion's talent?!"

Gu Ming nodded.

The old man in the green robe gasped. He hadn't expected that a genius with king-level talent would appear in Jianghai City. Moreover, the young man with the knife beside him also had a very strong aura. Even if he wasn't, he was almost there.

If Jianghai City were to rise to power...

"Let me see what's wrong with him."

The old man in the green robe roughly understood how Fang Fan had been injured. He couldn't help but sigh and then went to check Fang Fan's soul state. As time passed, his expression gradually became serious, but a hint of doubt also appeared in his eyes.

"How is it?"

Gu Ming asked hurriedly.

"His current state is a bit strange; it doesn't seem like he's injured."

The old man in the green robe, as expected of a powerful figure who could pull Gu Ming back from the brink of death, discerned Fang Fan's current condition after examining him.

"Why hasn't he woken up yet?"

Gu Ming was somewhat puzzled.

"I didn't enter his soul sea, nor did I find his soul. So there are only two explanations: one is that his soul sea is somewhat special, and once it closes down on its own, it becomes impossible to find his soul."

"Secondly, he once had an opportunity related to the sea of ​​the soul. The previous soul attack damaged his soul, which triggered that opportunity, resulting in his current state."

"However, I think it should be the second one."

The old man in the green robe said that although he only said a few words, he had guessed Fang Fan's situation with great accuracy.

"Why hasn't he woken up yet? Perhaps he will wake up once his soul has fully recovered."

The old man in the blue robe looked at Fang Fan's condition, which was somewhat similar to what he had seen before, but how could that be? He then dismissed the guess.

As he spoke, the old man in the blue robe suddenly pulled out a mysterious object from his hand.

It turned out to be a small piece of wood, emanating a mysterious aura.

This wooden lump is shaped like a base, with three layers: upper, middle, and lower, resembling the base of a small tower.

"This is..."

Gu Ming looked at the mysterious object and had some guesses in his mind, but still asked.

"This is part of the Soul Nourishing Tower, just a base."

"As for the tower itself, I heard it fell into the hands of a powerful demon."

"The Soul-Nourishing Tower!"

Gu Ming was somewhat surprised. This was indeed a treasure from the secret realm. Although he still did not know why such mysterious things existed in the secret realm, and some people even suspected that these things came from the previous civilization, nothing was certain.

Although they don't understand it, it doesn't stop them from using it.

It is said that this Soul Nourishing Tower has a great effect on the soul. It can not only nourish the soul and enhance its foundation, but also make the tower body and base one. It can even allow one to see through the secrets above the God of War realm!

The God of War Realm is a realm above the General level, and it is also the realm that Gu Ming is currently in.

"Although it is just a base, it contains the power of the Soul Nourishing Tower, which can nourish the soul. Perhaps with the addition of this Soul Jade, it can help the soul awaken as soon as possible."

"The King's Ranking will open in three months. I hope he doesn't miss it."

The old man in the green robe seemed unconcerned about Fang Fan's safety. He opened the white jade box and placed the base of the Soul Nourishing Tower next to Fang Fan's body.

As soon as they approached Fang Fan, the mysterious base suddenly shone brightly, a change that greatly surprised Gu Ming, and even the old man in the green robe showed surprise in his eyes.

This thing hasn't changed at all in his hands for so long, so why does it suddenly change when it's near Fang Fan?

Is it because of a special physical condition?

The old man in the green robe didn't think much of it, so he closed the white jade box and left the base next to Fang Fan's physical body.

Fang Fan, who was nourishing his soul in his sea of ​​consciousness, was startled awake once again. Why did the mysterious ball of light above his head suddenly become brighter again, and the effect was much better than before?

It even gave him a sense of clarity and a different feeling.

Could this also be the work of the city lord?

Suddenly, a message arrived from the terrifying monster within the Divine Soul Sea, causing the previously excited expression to become somewhat blank.

The nurturing period has been extended from three months to four months!

He had only closed his eyes for a short while when the time increased from January to March, and then from March to April. If he continued to cultivate, would it become a year?

Is this some kind of exaggerated claim?

He still wants to wake up.

However, he was not given time to think. The mysterious, mutated ball of light plunged Fang Fan into a mysterious and wondrous state, and everything was developing in an unknown direction.
