Nonsense! Master is not my wife.

He walked over, reached out for the box and opened it.

Inside the box, there is a plain and incomplete stone seal.

When he saw this incomplete stone seal, a hint of surprise flashed across the man's strange vertical pupils.

"It turns out that this stone seal is your real purpose." Suddenly an old but powerful voice sounded.

The man's expression changed, he put away the box and turned to look at the door.

I saw a tall and strong old man standing at the door.

Even though the other party's aura was normal, like an ordinary old man who could be seen everywhere, the man's snake-like vertical pupils shrank sharply, with strong vigilance and shock.

"Kong Yuanzi?"

Kong Yuanzi is the current Palace Master of Chilian Academy and one of the five supreme beings in the five realms.

"Aren't you in seclusion exploring the path to immortality? Why are you here?!"

Hearing this, Kong Yuanzi smiled slightly with a kind face:

"The rats running around in my house are really annoying, so I have no choice but to go out and catch them."

Chapter 56 Gift

"How could I have the honor to trouble Your Excellency to come in person?" the man said with a wry smile.

As soon as he finished speaking, his body suddenly swelled up, the spiritual energy around him became chaotic, and he actually wanted to self-destruct on the spot.

But just when his energy was about to reach its peak, it suddenly stopped strangely, as if it had hit a bottleneck.

Kong Yuanzi smiled and said, "You have cultivated for many years to achieve this level of cultivation, why do you want to self-destruct just because of a disagreement?"

The man had a grim look on his face.

The next moment, Kong Yuanzi suddenly let out a light exclamation.

Because the man's vitality disappeared in an instant.

Kong Yuanzi captured his body and brought it to him, examining it carefully and making sure that he was really dead.

After a while, the man's body slowly turned into black mud and then dissipated between heaven and earth.

"An incarnation?" Kong Yuanzi laughed softly, "That's quite decisive, but it's a pity that there is still a loophole."

A sphere of spiritual energy appeared in his hand. Through the transparent sphere, one could see a mass of black mud inside that gathered and dispersed from time to time, and was extremely unstable.

Kong Yuanzi looked down at the black mud in his hand and said, "It seems I have to find time to meet up with them."

When Chi Xinzi and others arrived at the Chi Lian secret storage, they only saw Kong Yuanzi standing in front of a row of bookshelves with a book in his hand.

"Palace Master." Chi Xinzi and others bowed.

Kong Yuanzi put the book in his hand back on the bookshelf, turned around and looked at everyone: "What is the situation now?"

"All the demons in Chilian Academy have been wiped out."

Kong Yuanzi asked again: "What about the Yanzhu Realm?"

"Daoyou Yin Ci and Grand Elder Zhang Gu from Xuelingxu have already found the location of the Flame Pearl Realm and are currently fighting with the demons for control of the Flame Pearl Realm."

Kong Yuanzi nodded slightly and instructed: "The demon took a broken stone seal from the Chilian secret collection. I looked through the secret records on the bookshelf, but did not find any information about this stone seal. I will leave this matter to you."

After that, his figure disappeared.

……

After Yin You stepped into the dark light column, he came to a mysterious place.

There seems to be no concept of space here, and all you can see is nothingness.

Yin wandered for an unknown amount of time before he finally saw a chain. He walked in the direction of the chain and finally saw a figure imprisoned in the center of the chain.

She was a mature woman with long purple hair and an extremely beautiful face. A black mole at the corner of her mouth made her even more charming. She was wearing a slightly torn black dress, revealing a lot of snow-white skin in the torn places, which was dazzling.

As if sensing Yin You's breath, the woman slowly opened her eyes. What was strange was that her left eye was dull and lifeless, while her silver-gray right eye was unusually bright, emitting a mysterious light.

"You're here." she said.

Yin You suppressed his rapidly accelerating heartbeat and looked at her suspiciously: "Are you calling me?"

Ever since seeing the dark pillar of light that pierced through the sky and the earth, a vague and ambiguous voice kept ringing in Yin You's heart, as if reminding Yin You of something, but the voice was too weak and too vague, and Yin You really couldn't hear what she was saying.

But as he got closer and closer to the dark column of light, the voice gradually became clearer.

It was a faint female voice, repeating one sentence over and over again:

"help me……"

After killing the dragon, Yin You's inner voice became more urgent, and he even had new words:

"Through the void, through the chains..."

Yin You had a premonition that this was something extremely important to him, and if he did not respond to the call, the consequences would be extremely serious.

But what is the dark light column? It is a means of the demons, which always exudes a strange and ominous aura, and demons continue to emerge from the dark light column.

Yin You also guessed that this was a conspiracy of the demon, so he was a little hesitant about whether to respond to the call.

But after thinking for a long time, he decided to follow his heart, walk into the dark light column, and look for the source of the call.

Of course, in order not to worry his master, he also left a divine jade token, which recorded the whole story and his decision, and asked his two nephews to pass it to his master.

The purple-haired woman who was imprisoned in the void by countless chains looked at Yin You quietly, and then smiled: "Yes, it's me."

Her smile is light and casual, but it gives people a natural sense of charm.

"You are a demon." Yin You confirmed.

Although the purple-haired woman's breath was weak at this time, Yin You still sensed a hint of a demonic, strange and ominous aura from her.

The purple-haired woman did not deny it and continued to look at him quietly.

For some reason, Yin You had a strange feeling of familiarity and strangeness towards the purple-haired woman in front of him. He hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Do we know each other?"

The purple-haired woman whispered, "I know you."

Yin You asked again: "Then do I know you?"

The purple-haired woman whispered something again, but her voice seemed to be swallowed up by the nothingness around her, and Yin You heard nothing.

At this moment, the chains wrapped around the purple-haired woman suddenly emitted black lightning, which was powerful and vast, carrying a terrifying aura.

The purple-haired woman's body just trembled slightly, and her expression was extremely calm, as if she had already gotten used to it.

Yin You's face changed drastically when he saw the black lightning: "Thunder Tribulation..."

Soon the black lightning dimmed, and the purple-haired woman's already weak aura became even weaker because of the thunder tribulation, but she didn't care. She just smiled at Yin You and said, "It seems that it can't be said."

Yin You was silent.

"How can I save you?" he said.

"These five chains correspond to the five elements," the purple-haired woman pointed to the five thickest chains wrapped around her neck, legs and feet, "You just need to use the five elements magic to cut them off one by one."

Upon hearing this, Yin You approached the purple-haired woman and performed the Five Elements magic according to her instructions.

It is strange to say, since these chains can allow thunder tribulations to attach to them, they should be top-notch spiritual weapons rarely seen in the world, but they are actually extremely fragile. Under Yin You's five elements magic, they collapsed one after another and dissipated into nothingness.

As five chains were cut off, the rest of the chains also dissipated. It seemed that the long-term confinement had weakened the purple-haired woman's body. She was shaking, as if she was about to fall to the ground in the next moment.

Fortunately, Yin You was right next to her. She immediately stretched out her hands and held Yin You's shoulders, thus stabilizing her body.

She exerted a little force and held Yin You in her arms.

Yin You was stunned at first, then he reacted and was about to push the purple-haired woman away.

But the purple-haired woman held him so tightly that Yin You couldn't break free for a while.

"So warm." The purple-haired woman said softly with a satisfied look on her face.

After hugging for a while, Yin You finally broke free from her arms.

"what are you doing……"

Before he could say anything, the purple-haired woman suddenly leaned over again.

The next moment, Yin You’s eyes widened.

After a while, the purple-haired woman stepped back slightly.

Yin You was suddenly shocked: "Your body..."

The purple-haired woman looked down and saw her body gradually disappearing into nothingness, starting from her legs.

She didn't care at all. She looked at Yin You with her dull eyes, seemingly with a hint of reluctance and nostalgia.

"It's time..." she said slowly.

"This gift is for you. We will see each other soon. Please don't forget me." Soon, the purple-haired woman smiled slightly.

As soon as she finished speaking, she disappeared into nothingness.

In the entire void, only Yin You was left.

He subconsciously touched the corner of his lips, which seemed to still have a hint of warmth.

Chapter 57 Shadow

Flame God Valley.

Yin Ci, dressed in a black robe, stood at the location where the dark light column was before, holding in her hand the divine jade token that Zhu Yingqiu had given her not long ago.

"Elder."

Xue Qingyou, who was standing behind Yin Ci, looked worried.

"You'er is fine."

Yin Ci seemed to know what she wanted to ask, and said calmly: "I have placed a soul in You'er, which can sense his presence at any time."

Xue Qingyou felt relieved after hearing this.

Zhu Yingqiu, who had been silent the whole time, asked, "Where is Master Yin now?"

Yin Ci shook his head slowly: "The split soul is too far away from my main body and cannot be contacted. I can only vaguely sense that You'er is now further south."

"Outside the Northern Territory?" Xue Qingyou murmured.

"Ah."

When Xue Qingyou heard this, her heart, which had just been at ease, became heavy again.

There have been constant conflicts among the five domains since ancient times. Coupled with the outbreak of the Five Domain War a hundred years ago that swept across the world, the cultivators of the five domains became even more xenophobic.

Although they lived in peace for a hundred years under the appeasement and intervention of the Taoist Alliance, conflicts among the five domains still existed, and the cultivators in each domain had a natural aversion to cultivators from other domains.

Yin You was traveling alone in a foreign land, and the situation was more dangerous than in the Northern Territory.

As if sensing her worries, Yin Ci said, "Don't worry, You'er is possessed by a god, comparable to a ninth-level cultivator. My soul fragment also has several attacks equivalent to the full force of a tenth-level cultivator. You'er has always been careful and cautious, and will definitely protect himself."

"Once I have dealt with the affairs of the Dao League, I will personally go to the foreign land and bring You'er back."

Yin Ci took one last look at Yanshen Valley and turned to leave.

"Let's go. I still need to stay in Chilian Academy for a few days to resolve this demon incident. If you two have nothing else to do, you can leave Chilian Academy and continue your travels."

"There have been demons appearing in many places in the Northern Territory recently. You two must be careful when you are out there."

After Yin Ci left, only Zhu Yingqiu and Xue Qingyou were left in the entire Yanshen Valley.

"Senior Sister Zhu, where are you planning to go next?" Xue Qingyou spoke first.

Zhu Yingqiu was silent for a moment, then uttered a few words: "Go further south."
