Dethrone me, I don't want the throne anymore, why are you so angry?

This gray aura contains a tremendous power, just like the breath of hell, it is a special aura.

However, what Ye Yu didn't expect was that the beast's body was completely empty! Just looking at its now torn open abdomen, it looked like a puppet.

It seemed as if the whole body was supported by this gray aura.

Seeing this, Ye Yu pondered for a while, formed seals with his hands, gathered his spiritual power, put the gray aura into the Xu Tian Ding, and turned away.

As for the head of the Cang beast, Ye Yu had no intention of taking it back. It was used for scoring and was useless to Ye Yu.

After flying for a long time and confirming that no beasts were chasing him, Ye Yu found a cave and prepared to carefully study what that gray aura was.

Now that spiritual consciousness and divine awareness are useless, places like caves naturally become the best hiding places.

As soon as he entered the cave, Ye Yu saw Ziyun's figure.

Ziyun also looked back at Ye Yu, said nothing, turned around and cut open the belly of a beast. The same gray aura emerged, but was gradually absorbed into Ziyun's body.

Ye Yu frowned slightly as he watched this scene, but he had no intention of interrupting. He just turned around and set up a shielding magic circle.

After a few hours, Ziyun completely absorbed the gray aura. Suddenly, the cold feeling on Ziyun's body seemed to become even stronger. Then he turned around and said to Ye Yu: "Long time no see."

Ye Yu nodded, "Why are you here in Zhongzhou?"

Ziyun shook his head upon hearing this, and asked, "Well, is your loyalty and righteousness correct?"

After the words fell, Ye Yu was stunned. He knew that Ziyun was asking about the bet. At that time, Ye Yu thought that Wuqing Dao was wrong, so he made the bet.

But later, too many things happened in Qingzhou, so this matter was shelved.

Ye Yu did not answer, but asked: "What is this gray aura?"

Seeing that Ye Yu did not answer, Ziyun did not say much. Not answering was already the answer. After all, Ye Yu had refuted him with full confidence at the beginning.

"This is a substance called Jueqi. The power contained in it is more than ten times richer than the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It is a very good substance for cultivation, but it has some side effects." Ziyun said lightly.

"What are the side effects?" Ye Yu asked with a frown.

Ziyun's expression remained calm as he spoke, "It can slowly make people lose their emotions. If they absorb too much, they'll become a walking corpse, only knowing how to follow their instincts. That's how they'll end up."

After saying that, Ziyun kicked the corpse of the Cang beast next to him.

Ye Yu looked at Ziyun deeply and said, "So, she is really suitable for your Jueqing Palace."

Ziyun suddenly fell silent after hearing this. He stammered a few times and suddenly asked, "Ye Yu, do you think the ruthless path can really go further?"

The sudden question made Ye Yu stunned. Ziyun used to be a staunch supporter of the ruthless way, but now he suddenly asked this question. During this period of time, a lot of things must have happened to Ziyun, which made people like Ziyun need to absorb absolute energy to suppress the seven emotions and six desires in the body.

Ye Yu didn't answer, but Zi Yun murmured to himself, "I chose the ruthless path because I wanted to go faster and further, but before my grandfather died, he said that I was becoming less and less like a human being..."

Hearing this, Ye Yu suddenly remembered what Master Luo Ying once said, that to escape from this world, one needs to cut off everything.

Isn’t that the way of ruthlessness?

If someone can really cut off everything, then he is no longer a human being. It is not an exaggeration to call him an immortal.

According to this, the path of ruthlessness may be the closest way to becoming an immortal.

Ye Yu looked at Zi Yun for a long time and then said, "Since you don't have the ability to change anything, then just blind yourself and pretend you can't see anything in the world. If you only think about yourself, you will save yourself a lot of troubles."

"Everyone except yourself wants to see that you are a gentleman, but why should you be a gentleman just to be judged by others? I think there is nothing wrong with being a villain with a clear conscience."

"Is your goal to have the power to change everything, or to escape from this purgatory?"

Ziyun was stunned when he heard this, looked at Ye Yu, and asked, "What about you?"

Ye Yu smiled nonchalantly and said, "I'm a coward. I just want to escape from this purgatory."

Looking at Ye Yu's smile, Ziyun suddenly laughed out loud, and then said: "I don't think you are cowardly. At least you have the courage to believe in love."

After saying that, Ziyun put away the smile on his face and returned to his calm demeanor. He turned and left. He walked to the cave entrance, stopped, and said without turning his head: "By the way, let me remind you, if you don't want to become that kind of thing, don't be too greedy."

"I'm not sure about the specific reasons, but anyway, I feel like this Canglan Ruins is a setup."

Ye Yu turned his head to look at the corpse of the Cang Beast beside him. He knew that the thing Ziyun was referring to was the Cang Beast.

Looking at Ziyun's receding back, Ye Yu's eyes narrowed slightly. There is no such thing as a free lunch.

No one is willing to give away what they have.

Just like the Hundred Dynasties War, the reason why those super dynasties were held was, on the one hand, to get more people to help them explore the Hundred Dynasties battlefield, and on the other hand, they wanted their own cattle and horses to collect resources for them for free.

The same is true for the Canglan Ruins.

However, Ye Yu still hasn't figured out what those powerful forces that control the Canglan Ruins want.

Taking a deep breath, Ye Yu took out the Xutian Ding, released the collected energy, then took out his spiritual root and put it in.

Although Ziyun explained the situation of this thing very clearly, Ye Yu still did not intend to take the risk.

Use the spiritual roots to absorb it first. It is a bit slow, but at least it is within the controllable range.

As for the Xu Tian Ding, it has its own little thoughts, so Ye Yu naturally cannot trust it 100% now.

Ding Ling watched this scene. It also knew Ye Yu's thoughts, and did not feel unhappy at all, nor did it intend to point it out.

Everyone thinks that just talking things out is enough. Don't they have mouths? Can't they explain?

But for many things, the more you point them out, the more embarrassing it becomes, so it is better to keep it tacit.

After absorbing some of the absolute energy, Ye Yu did not feel anything wrong and immediately threw the Xu Tian Ding in.

Half an hour later, Ye Yu walked out of the cave, feeling the improvement in his cultivation. His eyes narrowed slightly. The improvement brought by this absolute energy was even greater than that of the Breath of Hell.

Then, a green light condensed in Ye Yu's eyes. When he saw a wild beast passing by a thousand feet away, he took a step forward and rushed forward.

On the other side, people from the four major families also came to the broken city where Ye Yu was previously.

Wang Lie looked at the scene in front of him, his eyes slightly gloomy.
