Genshin Impact: A Traveler with Only Two Skills
Chapter 240: The Palace Master is Possessed by the Devil
Ying was just focused on listening to Fan Ji talking about what happened in the Soul Locking Prison. She followed him all the way and didn't notice that she had arrived directly at the door of the Soul Locking Prison.
At this time, there were still many cultivators gathered outside the Soul Locking Prison. Judging from their clothing and attire similar to those of the Broken Formation, they were probably also from the Lan Palace.
These people all looked grim, with anxiety and tension that could not be concealed between their brows.
Ying saw a familiar figure in the crowd. It was Ni Hui who had spoken ill of Po Zhen to her in private before.
"What are they doing here?" Ying asked.
"The Soul Locking Prison has been in trouble for the past few days. As the monks of Landian who are in charge of the Soul Locking Prison, they are naturally to blame. However, the current situation is special. The Pavilion Master does not intend to blame them. It is they who are worried and insisted on coming here."
After saying this, Fan Ji ignored the monks from the Mist Palace who were gathered at the door and prepared to go directly into the Soul Locking Prison. However, a white-haired monk saw Dong Ye and immediately widened his eyes. He hurriedly came forward and shouted at a very fast speed:
"Fellow Daoist Dong Ye!"
Hearing this voice, Dong Ye's eyebrows twitched noticeably, and an embarrassed expression was revealed on his face. He looked at Fan Ji, who turned his gaze to the white-haired monk and said in a deep voice:
"Step aside."
There was an unquestionable tone in Fan Ji's words, and a suffocating feeling followed.
The white-haired monk was dressed in extraordinary clothes and seemed to be a person of very high status in Lan Palace. He might even be the master of Lan Palace. However, the moment Fan Ji spoke, he felt a palpitation in his heart and stopped involuntarily.
"I'm sorry, Palace Master Chen. Let's talk about the past next time." Dong Ye was in a much better mood because he had successfully gotten rid of a troublesome matter. He responded to Palace Master Chen politely, and then entered the Soul Locking Prison with everyone else.
Just like the last time I came in, the Soul Locking Prison was still as dark and chilling as ever. As a place where prisoners in Fengyang City were detained, not many people were willing to deal with the Soul Locking Prison.
The first level of the Soul Locking Prison is no longer guarded by monks from the Lan Palace. Instead, there are many monks from the Wanxian Pavilion. Their aura is obviously stronger than that of the monks from the Lan Palace. Even among the disciples, there are several powerful men in the Earthly Immortal Realm. One of the disciples even gives Ying a feeling that he is stronger than Dong Ye.
Look at Dong Ye again. Ever since Fan Ji showed up, he has been looking relaxed, just like a student from the Teaching Academy who had been struggling for many years and unable to graduate because he couldn't find a suitable topic, and finally got an ideal topic, and there was a "generous" businessman willing to provide funding for his project.
Although the similar students Ying met in the Academy were all lacking in funds or their research projects were not progressing smoothly, fortunately, most of the time Ying did not really need Mora. As long as the other party was willing to give the raw stones, Ying was still happy to lend a helping hand.
As for the fate of those students... Ying can guarantee that her work will be completed successfully, it depends on whether the "generous" businessman who provides funds to the other party is really that generous.
If the person she meets is Dolly, or a follower of Dolly, then it is estimated that in the near future, Ying will run into the person who is struggling with the subject.
Ying had a premonition that Dong Ye in front of her would soon get into trouble because of this false "relaxation" for a moment.
As expected, before they even went deep into the Soul Locking Prison, Yun Guijun appeared in front of everyone, and Wen Lian happened to be standing next to him. The two of them looked at an ordinary cell, seemingly thinking about something.
"Ha, Fellow Daoist Ying, you're finally here." Yun Guijun greeted Ying immediately when he saw her, as if they were very close friends. Wen Lian on the other side nodded slightly to Ying, and then saw Ye Shiyi following behind them with Wen Lan in his arms.
"How did you get into the city?" Wen Lian's face immediately showed surprise, with a hint of worry in her surprise. She naturally noticed Wen Lan's situation. Wen Lian even subconsciously took a step forward, but quickly took it back.
Ye Shiyi's expression changed several times, but in the end he did not take any action. He just held his daughter and looked at his wife whom he had not seen for a long time, without saying a word.
"It seems that everyone is here. Fan Ji has told me everything that happened. Fortunately, our Palace Master Wen Lian has not been affected at this time. Maybe Ye Ping was really seriously injured in the battle with Taoist Guiyi, so he had to give up his plan to return."
"Anyway, let's put Ye Ping's matter aside for now. There is another important matter that needs our attention right now... Well, to be more precise, there are two more things."
The Master of the Wanxian Pavilion pointed to the cell in front of him and said:
"This is the room where Sanger was imprisoned before. After all, he escaped from Ye Ping, so I made special arrangements so that there are no other prisoners around his room."
Then, Yun Guijun walked into the house and pointed to the wall on the right side of the door. There was a big hole there. The shape of the hole was irregular, and it was obviously broken open by brute force.
"But there was suddenly one more person in this cell, an ordinary prisoner who was supposed to be imprisoned in another cell. I tried to go back in time to see what happened in the cell at that time, and found that the person was used as a carrier, carrying a dead soul that existed in the past."
"That ghost seemed to have a special meaning to Sanger, or maybe the ghost itself had some special characteristics. In the end, the two met and actually opened a passage to the Great Wilderness in this Soul Locking Prison. The opportunity to go to the Great Wilderness that only existed in long-ago legends just slipped away before my eyes. What a pity."
Yun Guijun smacked his lips as he spoke, appearing quite regretful.
"I once learned about the method to enter the Great Wilderness. Now, only the Great Wilderness bloodline can open the road to the Great Wilderness. However, people with this bloodline only exist in the Great Wilderness. Logically speaking, the Great Wilderness is no longer accessible. I didn't expect that Sanger is actually related to the Great Wilderness."
Ying didn't say anything and continued to listen to Yun Guijun reconstructing everything that happened in the Soul Locking Prison, but she couldn't help feeling a little surprised.
In this world, she has also heard words like "the road to immortality is cut off" and "the road leading to the Great Wilderness no longer exists". In her heart, she has already vaguely linked "the Great Wilderness" and "the road to immortality" together. If Sangge is really related to the Great Wilderness, then doesn't he also have something to do with "becoming an immortal"?
Moreover, becoming an immortal is not as simple as becoming a cultivator in the Earthly Immortal Realm. It refers to the "attaining the Tao and becoming an immortal" that Wumian and Han Wei always talk about, that is, becoming a being in the Heavenly Immortal Realm.
It's unlikely, given Sanger's silly look...
Ying is not a person who judges people by their appearance, but Sangge's becoming an immortal still gives her the feeling that "a little thief in the treasure-stealing group suddenly becomes a Liyue immortal."
Putting aside these strange thoughts, Ying heard Yun Guijun continue to say:
"And the one who summoned that projection to this time was none other than Hei Lingyue. This ability was probably not something she originally possessed. Perhaps it was the ability that the Taoist Guiyi secretly gave her. After the road leading to the Great Wilderness appeared, she quickly disappeared along with Sangge - in other words, we are probably one step behind the Taoist Guiyi in heading to the Great Wilderness."
"I still don't know what the Great Wilderness means to that Taoist Guiyi, but it's definitely not a good thing."
It seems that the news about Sanger is really bad.
"As for the second thing, we still have a chance to make up for it, and we need Fellow Daoist Ying's help."
"Me?" Ying pointed at herself, not understanding what Yun Guijun meant by this.
"There is a traitor in Lan Palace, his name is Luo Shan. He secretly colluded with Lan Palace disciples and moved the Breaking Array to the depths of Soul Locking Prison. Then he used the formation of Soul Locking Prison to block the way to the depths. I think his target is the Breaking Mountain Sword stored in Soul Locking Prison. If this artifact falls into his hands, the consequences will be disastrous. However, the formation is extremely strong. Palace Master Wen and I have tried, but we cannot break through it in a short time. We can only hope for your magical 'Hundred Taboos'."
"I understand, but why didn't you tell me earlier about such an urgent matter?" Ying quickly understood Yun Guijun's meaning, but didn't understand why the other party didn't let her use the Hundred No Taboos Talisman to break the formation as soon as she arrived, but instead spent so much time talking about things related to Sangge that they could no longer change.
But just as she passed by Yun Guijun, she heard a voice transmitted to her ears through magic power:
"Because the time has not come yet."
Timing? What timing?
Ying was confused, but her hands did not slow down for a moment. She took out the talisman of no taboos from her backpack and followed Yun Guijun to the entrance deep inside the Soul Locking Prison. As expected, she saw a pitch-black formation that completely blocked the entrance. She immediately activated the elemental power, ready to use the talisman in her hand to break the formation, but at this moment, she felt something invisible stopping her action.
No, it wasn't just Ying's actions, everything around them seemed to have come to a standstill, as if time had been paused.
At this moment, Yun Guijun's eyes trembled, and he blinked quickly, and his body regained its mobility. He seemed to have anticipated all this, turned his head and looked behind him, and said:
"It seems that my worries are correct. It is still necessary to be on guard against you."
Ying was unable to move, but realized that she was holding the talisman. She immediately transferred the power of the talisman to herself, and soon her body regained its mobility.
She quickly summoned the black sword, took a stance, and looked at the person Yun Guijun mentioned.
Sure enough, Ying sighed softly in her heart.
That was Wen Lian, the Master of Wen Palace of Tianya Island, Ye Shiyi's wife, and Wen Lan's mother.
