Chapter 1389 May the Deceased Rest in Peace, and the Survivors Break the Mold
Although Annihilation Sword agreed, Gu Xia hadn't spent much time with him, and his attitude towards her was quite hostile. If she wasn't mistaken, he was probably still holding a grudge against her for forcing him to submit.
For safety reasons, Gu Xia certainly couldn't really rely on the so-called instinct of the sword spirit to protect its master.
Judging from the feud between the two of them, who knows if this thing is reliable or not.
If it were Fushengjian and his group, she would have joined them without hesitation.
But for now, no, no.
After all, it's always better to be safe than sorry. This thing is so powerful, if something goes wrong, who can she complain to?
Gu Xia refused to imagine being corroded into a pool of blood; after all, she still needed to make a living based on her looks, and such a death was clearly beyond her tolerance.
Perhaps because of the painful experience of being betrayed by the Fifth Elder, Gu Xia now subconsciously keeps a backup plan in everything she does.
Regardless of whether they will actually use it or not, at least their awareness of fraud prevention is quite high.
It was because they didn't install the anti-fraud app for the cultivation world that they were stabbed in the back by that old scoundrel, the Fifth Elder.
Gu Xia is very vengeful; if someone stabs her in the back, she'll definitely find a chance to retaliate.
Thanks again to my third senior brother. Fortunately, her mustard seed bag was in his hands. Although the sword spirit, the weapon spirit, and the others had all disappeared without a trace, at least Gu Xia wasn't really left all alone.
During the battle with the ghost cultivators, the gilded brick, a treasure, was able to suppress the ghostly and malevolent energy. Based on the principle that it was roughly the same, Gu Xia kept it in her pocket.
In case of any unforeseen circumstances, it might be able to save my life temporarily.
Although the Heavenly Grade Defense Talisman is effective, it's just too sinister, and she's afraid it won't be able to protect her.
As she plunged deeper into the water, Gu Xia's vision seemed to be shrouded in a bloody mist, and all she could see was a crimson red.
Gu Xia opened her mind until a white dot suddenly appeared in her vision.
what is that?
She cautiously moved closer, keeping the distance at a level where she could retreat at any moment, but the moment she saw clearly, all her thoughts vanished.
Gu Xia's face went blank for a moment.
It wasn't just a patch of white, but vast expanses of pristine white.
Countless white skulls lay at the bottom of the deepest part of the water, some still intact, others reduced to mere fragments.
Unlike before, although Gu Xia had already seen these things while she was up there, she never imagined that so many more were buried underneath.
Just a glance was enough to shock Gu Xia; it was a living hell.
How many people has that old man, Biden, arrested over the years?
"stop looking."
The sound of the Annihilation Sword suddenly rang in her ears, and through the blood and surrounding bones, it seemed to carry a chilling meaning.
"They've been dead for at least several hundred years. Instead of watching them, you'd better find a place to make your move, or you'll end up like them."
He could control the evil energy in the surrounding blood, which would protect Gu Xia for a short time, but they still needed to leave this place first.
Gu Xia composed herself and lowered her eyes slightly.
Through the stark white skeletons at the bottom of the water, she seemed to see those who had been imprisoned here being swallowed up bit by bit by the blood.
Until flesh and blood turned into tears of resentment, all efforts were in vain, and even the soul was extracted and refined.
All that remains are the pain of those dying struggles and the resentment that has lingered here for hundreds of years without completely dissipating.
Gu Xia thought she should do something.
At least at the last moment, these remnant souls can be allowed to see the light of day again.
May the departed rest in peace, and may the living find a way out.
The heinous crimes of the demon race will not be buried here forever.

After passing the mountains of skeletons, Gu Xia reached the deepest part of the blood. Her vast sea of consciousness enveloped everything around her, and no fluctuation could escape her notice.
at the same time.
After noticing the prolonged calm inside the artifact, the man couldn't help but feel a desire to investigate.
While casually delivering one palm strike after another, listening to the endless screams of the Ye family cultivators below, he also probed his divine sense into the area.
The time it takes for an incense stick to burn has long passed. Logically speaking, Gu Xia should have been completely dissolved into blood by now.
However, since this personally taught method of saving one's life seemed to be quite extensive, he deliberately waited a little longer.
At first, there was quite a commotion inside the magical artifact. It was obvious that Gu Xia was trying to make a last-ditch effort, but the man didn't take it seriously, or rather, he didn't think she had that ability at all.
When they fought, Gu Xia could hold her own against him with her resilient physique and the talismans in her hand, but once she entered the spiritual artifact, she would be the one who was constantly being worn down.
What else can she use to fight back?
Once the blood flows back in, the entire space inside the magical artifact will be completely swallowed up.
This naturally includes Gu Xia as well.
The thought of the other person's gruesome death made the man impatient.
Although he might not be able to see Gu Xia's corpse, the soul of a Void Refinement stage cultivator could still sustain itself for a long time, which would be just right for him to devour.
Yes, he has changed his mind and no longer intends to refine Gu Xia like the other cultivators before him.
Demons are capable of devouring the souls of others, but he has never done so before. However, things are different now. He has been stuck at the Mahayana stage for over a hundred years and simply doesn't have the patience to wait any longer.
Who wouldn't want to be the next one to pass through the tribulation stage?
Anyway, now that this matter is over, it's too late for Heaven to punish him with heavenly lightning.
He had a vague feeling that if he could devour Gu Xia's soul, he might be able to break through the bottleneck that had been holding him back for so many years.
The man became more and more excited as he thought about it, and decided to first examine Gu Xia's spiritual condition.
But to my surprise, this attempt only resulted in empty air.
hmmmm?
What about people?
Oh no, where's the soul?
The man paused for a moment, easily taking in everything inside, but he couldn't see a single hair on Gu Xia's head, let alone her.
He could understand the loss of the body, but given the level of that brat's consciousness, there was no reason for it to be so fragile.
He didn't think Gu Xia's soul would be so easily devoured, and the moment the thought crossed his mind, he became extremely vigilant.
Who knows what kind of trick she's up to again?
He might not be so worried about anyone else, but it's different with Gu Xia.
This is truly believable.
Otherwise, she might turn on you at any time.
Thinking of this, the man instantly lost his composure.
For a moment, he even became perfunctory in his attitude towards the Ye family members outside, with only one thought in his mind.
We need to find Gu Xia as soon as possible.
After all, he controlled the magical artifact. In just a moment, after detecting a certain location, his mind wavered and he realized that his divine sense seemed to be blocked by something.
Without a doubt, this was Gu Xia's doing.
The man sneered, then crushed the object without hesitation.
Hide and seek, is that right?
He wanted to see what this brat was up to behind his back.
