It's not about appearance, but simply because the space in this area is unstable.

And the cause of this instability is partly due to destruction.

Destructive energy...

Leng Yihan recalled the world she visited a long time ago when she was competing in the Oracle tournament.

It seems to be called the Border Battlefield.

There's a eccentric, out-of-touch old man in there...

That guy seems to have mastered the power of space as well as the power of destruction.

At the time, she didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, but now, looking back, Leng Yihan feels there are many suspicious points.

After mastering the power of destruction and space, you're only level 150?

I remember the conversion between ranks was ten levels to one rank.

In other words... that old man was only level 15?

There's something wrong with it no matter how you look at it!

Leng Yihan had long wanted to see that old man. When she went to Tianyue to ask about the location of the Thunderclap, she had asked her if she still had the coordinates of that small world.

The answer she received was: "The coordinates are lost... that small world has been hidden." This answer further confirmed Leng Yihan's suspicion that the old man was not right.

"But thankfully... it seems like we have a lead now."

"Who exactly are you?" Chu Bai looked at Leng Yihan cautiously. The other party seemed to know her... but she definitely didn't know Leng Yihan.

"It's nothing, just a passerby. I have to go now... Good luck."

Cause and effect...

Leng Yihan didn't rush to find the abnormal place, but instead headed towards the laboratory on the island.

The Soul Grid Experiment is no ordinary experiment; how could an ordinary person know of its existence?

The person standing behind that... is probably some big shot.

Chu Bai and Chu Hei are somewhat like vengeful spirits, but given Leng Yihan's current strength, he could easily convert them if he wanted to.

But... he didn't want to.

Vengeful spirits are often formed when people die with resentment, or in other words, when they still have an obsession with something in the world.

"An obsession... Maybe I'll become a boss-level vengeful spirit after I die?" Leng Yihan thought, and couldn't help but laugh out loud. Forget about such a ridiculous idea; she absolutely cannot die.

The two ghosts, Chu Bai and Chu Hei, did not attack Leng Yihan; they simply watched him walk away step by step.

"...Xiaobai, what is he doing?"

"I don't know." Chu Bai shook his head.

"But... perhaps we should leave."

"Leave? Where to?"

"I don't know, it's just a gut feeling..."

……

……

“This is it…” Leng Yihan closed her eyes, attached a wisp of divine sense to her perception, and began to explore the area around the laboratory.

If you don't want to become a ghost, then why would you become a vengeful ghost or a malevolent spirit?

For example... being forcibly transformed into a ghost.

The Soul Modification Project... seems to be about giving them a new Soul.

So the question is... whose soul was replaced?

My entire body needs to be modified...

"This is indeed extraordinary... This must be why that old man left a spatial tunnel on this island." After Leng Yihan reopened her eyes, she had already determined her destination.

Deep beneath this island, or rather, very deep beneath this laboratory, lies a hollow space.

This place can even barely block the perception of peak-level experts... it must be the work of a master of the same level.

"I won't bother you any longer." Leng Yihan stretched out her hand, revealing a long sword.

Leng Yihan's signature weapon is named: Extreme.

Its overall color is cyan, and Leng Yihan doesn't know the specific material it's made of... It's a completely new substance.

Leng Yihan took her longsword, slashed at the air, and then... nothing happened.

"Hiss... I knew the space here was very solid, but I never expected it to be this solid..." Leng Yihan sighed. Although the space was quite solid, Leng Yihan was a top-level expert, so how could she not break through it?

"Spatial rift, open!" Leng Yihan raised her sword, this time with a thin layer of four-in-one energy and a bit of spatial power attached to it.

With this single strike, Leng Yihan easily cleaved open the specially reinforced space. After sheathing her sword, she widened the spatial rift and passed through. There was no other way; the space here was too solid to open a spatial gate directly…

On the other side of the spatial rift was a simple stone cave that looked like it had been haphazardly carved out. In the middle of this cave was a magic circle, and lying on top of this magic circle was the little girl Chu Bai.

"The appearance of white and black... is it a conflict after the soul modification? The little girl's rampage killed everyone in the laboratory. Then that top expert extracted the two souls, erased their memories, and put them on the island. And then..." Leng Yihan paused, looked at the general function of the formation: "Hmm... it's a formation similar to a life-sustaining formation, and it also has the effect of inputting energy. It seems that this formation is their source of power."

Leng Yihan muttered to herself as her longsword reappeared in her hand.

He walked toward the formation with his longsword in hand. The formation faintly emitted a bloody light, looking extremely ominous.

The little girl's body was 'standing' in the middle, her eyes were closed, and she did not react at all.

"Hoo... Well then, it's time to end this. Once this formation is broken, I won't even need to lift a finger, right?" Leng Yihan raised her longsword and aimed it at the little girl in the formation.

"It may sound cruel... but you're no longer human."

"Rest in peace..." Leng Yihan gently slashed down with her longsword, but a destructive sword aura flew out from the blade, directly splitting the entire formation in two, and the little girl in the middle also disappeared.

After glancing at the empty array for a few moments, Leng Yihan withdrew her gaze and left the place.

There's no point in trying to reform them... They were forcibly transformed into inhuman monsters, and then their souls were extracted, their memories erased, and they became vengeful ghosts...

Upon returning to the island, Leng Yihan's first instinct was to search for Chu Bai and Hei Gui.

They sat on the cliff edge of the lighthouse, looking at the dim, lightless sky, without speaking or exchanging words, only appearing more and more surreal.

Leng Yihan withdrew her senses again. The rest of the story... you can probably guess without even watching.

Goodbye, both of you. I'm sorry this meeting brought you only death.

Well... although you died a long time ago.

Now...

After Leng Yihan left the reinforced space, she opened a spatial gate and teleported directly to the place where she had previously noticed something amiss with the space.

After passing through the spatial gate, Leng Yihan arrived at the place where the space was strange.

The speaker is positioned directly above the entire island, in mid-air.

There is a spatial node here, through which everyone can travel to the world linked by the spatial node.

However, this spatial node is hidden very well, and it is absolutely impossible for an ordinary person to find it. Perhaps that is why the person who created the node set it in such an obvious position.

"But it's fine... it makes it easier for me to find it directly..." Leng Yihan muttered, reaching out to touch the node.

It seems this node isn't just for the creator's own use, but also for others to use...

If it's that old man... who would it be given to?

Leng Yihan quickly came to an answer.

The girl from before, wasn't her name... Ruoyi?

So you've sent yourself to take care of the old man's daily needs, haven't you?

No, no... Anyway, even if it weren't like that, she wouldn't have any room to survive. She would actually be safer with the old man.

After Leng Yihan's fingers touched the spatial node, the space around her gradually began to distort, which was a phenomenon of spatial teleportation.

It was clearly a destructive force... but in the end, it was used to create a unique, sturdy, and stable spatial tunnel...

Is this what they call... the reversal of extremes?

In that case, that old geezer is probably even stronger than I imagined...

……

……

"Hmm? A guest?" In the courtyard, an old man was drinking tea when he looked up at the spatial node he had left above the courtyard, connecting him to another world.

I never expected that someone would discover such a hidden spatial node I left behind... It would be terrible if someone hadn't stumbled in by sheer luck.

This is the border battlefield.

And the place where the old man is located... is a sacred place praised by soldiers on the border battlefield.

There will be no monster attacks here, and life can be well guaranteed.

However, very few people are able to get here.

The old man built this courtyard, but the person who made the suggestion...

"Senior Mie, should we drive the other party away?" asked the black-haired girl standing to the side.

For more than a decade, her appearance has remained unchanged.

This is also a local legend... that anyone who enters this place can achieve true immortality.

"It's alright. If the other party discovered it by accident, then it's fate between us. If not... if he can sense something is wrong, he can naturally also sense the destructive energy I left behind. If he dares to come over again, I don't mind meeting him."

The old man said.

His surname was Mie, and he only told Ruoyi his surname so that it would be easier for her to address him.

The next moment, the spatial node in the sky distorted, and the next moment, a person popped out from it.

"Hmm?" The old man frowned, feeling that the person who came out of the spatial node seemed somewhat familiar.

"Whoosh..." Leng Yihan spun around in the air before landing safely on the ground.

"Hmm? It really is you..." Leng Yihan raised her head and shook it to clear her mind before looking at the old man and woman standing not far away.
