Star Trace Gate

Coffin Hall.

Not only Ren sensed the strange and resentful aura, even Xiao Shuai, who was sitting cross-legged in the main formation at the door, noticed something strange in the endless coldness.

"Brother... why do I feel like the ancestor's coffin seems to have shaken a little?" Xiao Shuai said with his eyes tightly closed: "Is this... is this normal?"

Ren Ye was speechless when he heard this: "This is your father-in-law's ancestral land. You ask me? How do I know if it's normal?"

"Although... this is the ancestral land of my father-in-law's family, I've never been to this coffin hall before." Xiao Shuai felt aggrieved. "However, the Zhou family did say that this ancestor's spirit was different. I guess they were referring to this situation."

"Damn, if only Old Chu was here when I encountered something like this...!" Ren also missed Dao Ye a little bit. It was a pity that this guy died after getting the opportunity from Senior Bai Tiao Ji, and there was no news from him until now.

He pondered for a moment, then said in a voice message, "I'll go in and take a look."

"Okay, I'll keep watch for you at the door." Xiao Shuai inexplicably felt like a guilty thief, and his sense of substitution was very strong.

Inside the coffin hall, the oil lamp hanging on the bluestone wall had a weak flame that flickered slightly. It looked colorful in the dim purple light, lighting up the entire tomb hall while also dimly illuminating the murals in the tomb.

The murals in this tomb are all engraved with the same woman, and under the dazzling candlelight, the colors appear too strong.

The women in the mural all had bright red faces, and their eyes were all looking straight at one point, as if they were all staring at Ren Ye, which was very creepy.

In just a moment, Ren felt uncomfortable as countless portraits stared at the back of his neck.

He had been to many strange places and considered himself to be braver than a cock, but at this moment he still felt a tingling scalp and weak legs.

"Fuck, I've been to the Emperor's Tomb, but my legs are weak here?! Bullshit!"

The Little Bad King forced himself to prepare himself mentally, then adjusted his breathing and walked into the coffin hall in a restrained manner.

A biting coldness hit him in the face, and he took square steps and soon arrived next to the coffin of the Zhou family ancestor.

"I'm going to open the coffin." Ren Ye sent a voice message to remind Xiao Shuai.

"Fuck!" Xiao Shuai responded.

In the center of the coffin hall, there was a crystal jade coffin. Standing in Ren Ye's position, as long as he lowered his head and looked carefully, he could even vaguely see the corpse in the coffin.

The lid of the jade coffin is engraved with a picture of a phoenix, which looks magnificent and luxurious.

Not to mention much else, the cost of the materials for this coffin alone is not something that an ordinary ancient clan can afford. This shows that the status of this ancestor in the Zhou family must have been extremely high during his lifetime.

"Old Ancestor, you are so kind... I really didn't mean to offend you. It's simply because the threshold for this natal treasure to reach the fifth level is too difficult, so I had no choice but to come here to disturb you...!"

Ren also stood beside the jade coffin, first bowed deeply, and then began to mutter.

Only after he thought he had fulfilled all the etiquette did he gently raise his arms and hold the coffin lid and move it.

"Crack...!"

With Ren Ye's current physical strength, he would naturally not be stumped by a coffin lid in this fifth-grade place. Although this thing was very heavy, comparable to a fourth-grade divine weapon being activated, he still lifted the coffin lid easily and placed it lightly on the ground.

The coffin opened, and Ren Ye walked to the left and looked into the coffin, but unexpectedly, he showed an expression of dementia in an instant.

In the coffin, a woman with a slightly plump figure and beautiful appearance appeared in his eyes so vividly.

She is so beautiful...

In Ren Ye's imagination, although the ancestor of the Zhou family did not die of natural causes, she was a sixth-rank Daoist after all. She must be very old, and should not be younger than the Minister of War, Mr. Ruan. Therefore, even if her body is not decayed, she should be an old lady with a wrinkled face and a hunched body.

But he never expected that the ancestor of the Zhou family not only did not look old at all, but was extremely beautiful.

She looked to be in her thirties, wearing a loose white dress. She had a slender and graceful figure, fair skin and a rosy face.

There is not a single wrinkle on her round oval face, her skin is plump and translucent, and it is so delicate that it can be broken with a flick of the finger. Especially her delicate facial features, with thin eyebrows, phoenix eyes, and a small cherry-red mouth, are bright and charming, revealing the unparalleled charm that a mature woman cannot conceal.

Ren also recovered from his shock, his heart filled with doubts: "Even if it was a sixth-rank expert, after falling for more than five hundred years...it's impossible for the body to be preserved so well? Could it be...that the Zhou family used some special secret method?!"

He paused for a moment, then looked intently at the center of the eyebrows of the Su He ancestor. He saw that on the other's flawless white forehead, there was a touch of purple cinnabar, which was shining brightly.

He guessed in his heart that the cinnabar on the forehead of Ancestor Su He might be related to the soul-locking formation in the hall, and it was also the secret yin and yang method to maintain the immortality of her soul.

"Ancestor, I'll just take a look at the spirit... just one look, and then I'll leave. Don't blame me, don't blame me!"

Ren was also very clear about the purpose of his coming here, so after calming down a little, he raised his right arm and quietly circulated the purple luck in his body.

Xiao Shuai said that there was something strange about the soul of this old ancestor Su He, and perhaps only the luck of the human world could erase the weirdness in her soul.

In that case, I must definitely give it a try.

Ren Ye stood outside the coffin, raised a sword finger, and slowly reached into the coffin.

"brush!"

A wisp of misty purple luck surged out from his fingertips, and the biting cold feeling around him was instantly weakened by a lot.

He reached into the coffin with trembling fingers and gently touched Su He's eyebrows.

Soon, he felt a cool and soft feeling at his fingertips. He touched the old ancestor's skin and drew the purple energy, injecting it into her brow.

"Ong!"

In an instant, the purple energy in the coffin surged and spread out, slowly covering Su He's body.

"brush!"

Ren Ye immediately closed his eyes, and while injecting purple luck into the center of Su He's eyebrows, he mobilized his spiritual thoughts and began to carefully sense the wisp of soul preserved by the formation.

Inside the coffin hall, there was silence and stillness. The Little Bad King stood beside the coffin in a trance, not moving a muscle.

He used a wisp of divine power to penetrate the cinnabar between the ancestor's eyebrows and soon sensed the soul left behind by the God-Locking Formation.

When I first sensed it, the soul was very weak, like a candle in the wind, ready to go out at any time.

But soon, Ren also noticed something unusual. When he completely enveloped the weak soul with gentle purple luck and was about to use his divine sense to detect it, he suddenly sensed a very resentful aura, which was resurrecting...

That resentful aura was like a "dirty thing" hidden in the soul of the ancestor Su He. It was usually hidden very well and could not even be noticed by people of the sixth rank. However, after encountering the human destiny that was naturally able to defeat all evil things, it found that it had nowhere to hide.

As his spiritual thoughts surged, Ren Ye suddenly felt a strong sense of impending death!

"boom!!"

Without any warning, the purple luck in the coffin suddenly rose up, mixed with endless black light.

"Brother, what's wrong?!"

Xiao Shuai noticed something unusual and immediately shouted through voice transmission.

"brush!"

In the coffin, Su He, who had a slender and graceful figure, swayed her feet and opened her bright eyes with a smile in the rolling purple clouds.

“Alive, alive…!”

Ren Ye's hair stood on end as he retracted his sword finger. His face turned pale as he roared, "Xiao Shuai, quickly remove the Qilin Talisman and complete the Soul Locking Formation!"

Outside the hall, Xiao Shuai heard the shouting and immediately made hand gestures, trying to remove the Qilin Talisman.

"Boom!!!"

At this moment, a black light shot up into the sky from the coffin, shaking the entire coffin hall. Countless dust particles fell and floated in the air.

"Bang bang bang...!"

Suddenly, the twelve soul-locking formation flags inserted in the hall all burned up on their own and turned into ashes in just a moment.

The power of the formation completely collapsed!

Inside the hall, all the eternally burning lamps were blazing with candlelight, rising and swaying.

"puff!"

The formation collapsed, Xiao Shuai suffered a backlash, and immediately vomited several mouthfuls of blood.

Ren Ye suddenly turned around and yelled, "Are you okay?!"

"I... I just suffered a little backlash. It's nothing serious, it's nothing serious..." Xiao Shuai shouted in disbelief, "But what exactly did you do to the ancestor? Why did this happen?!"

"I want to know too!"

Ren also sensed the mysterious aura resurfacing within the coffin. A cool breeze whizzed against the back of his neck, and he shouted with a pale face, "There's a large formation in the ancestral land. People outside may not know what's going on here! Quick, go out and call for help, or there's going to be chaos here!"

"Call the people in charge of the two families to come over, quickly!"

"Then you yourself...!"

"The tomb passage that someone opened for me is going to be destroyed. How the hell am I going to compensate me?" Ren Ye gritted his teeth and said, "You go quickly. I'll fight Su He Tai Nai alone!"

"Be careful, run away if you can't! If the Zhou family blames you, I... I will take the blame!" Xiao Shuai was still very righteous at the critical moment. After giving this instruction, he fled out of the ancestral land as fast as possible.

"brush!"

When Ren Ye turned around to look at the coffin, he flashed back more than ten steps.

Inside the hall, rays of black light that had condensed into substance shot out from the coffin.

The Little Bad King stared at the violently shaking jade coffin in amazement, wiping the sweat from his forehead. He gritted his teeth and said, "This time it's really not the moldy pen...it's...this dirty thing is hidden too deep!"

"brush!"

As soon as the words fell, a graceful figure flew up from the coffin and said with a sinister smile: "...Little thing, what on earth do you want to see in my coffin palace?!"

Ancestor Su He was flying in the air, her white skirt fluttering, her red lips tempting to lick, she looked as ethereal as an immortal.

Ren Ye stared at her blankly and blurted out, "Sixth-grade Gu... or Soul Gu? It hasn't killed you after all these years... You're quite capable of living!"

"Haha, you're quite knowledgeable!" Su He stared at Ren Ye with a gloomy look, licking her red lips with the tip of her tongue and said, "This little fourth-grade fellow... not only possesses great luck, but his body is also incredibly strong! I never thought that after I woke up... I would have such a good time!"

Ren had also encountered the incarnation of the god, Gu Taoist, in the ominous mirror, so his horizons were naturally broadened. Therefore, the moment Ancestor Su He woke up, he was certain that the strange and resentful aura came from a Gu worm.

Moreover, this insect might be a rare soul insect in the world, otherwise it would be impossible to explain how it could survive in the ghost of the ancestor Su He until now, and not be noticed by a sixth-grade person.

Most of the poisonous insects in this world are not intelligent. They only know how to absorb the essence and blood of the people who raise them, as well as the things that feed them in the world, in order to reproduce themselves. They are loyal to their hosts all their lives. Although these poisonous insects can be regarded as living beings, they are no different from livestock. They are more like a kind of killing tool for cultivators.

However, there are a very small number of poisonous insects that are intelligent. They are no different from aliens, holy spirits, evil spirits, etc. Although it is extremely difficult for them to attain enlightenment due to their own defects, they can also embark on the path of enlightenment and cultivation. They can also become partners of the host, comparable to close relatives.
