Lonely Immortal

This monster is really ferocious, and it is erratic. It pounced in front of Zhang Zhiwen in an instant. Zhang Zhiwen could only resist subconsciously, but these monsters directly passed through his body. He instantly felt that his soul was weakened a little. Zhang Zhiwen was shocked. You know, his soul is the original soul, but this monster can actually weaken his soul energy.

This is definitely not going to work. Zhang Zhiwen turned around and ran, but these ghosts flashed a few times and surrounded him again. This speed is even more terrifying than the flame monster. At this time, other people also encountered these ghosts. These cultivators did not have such a powerful soul as Zhang Zhiwen. Their souls were torn apart by the monsters in a few moves. These people thought they had a chance to get out after entering the real Styx Realm, but they actually encountered more terrifying monsters.

Zhang Zhiwen didn't have time to think about anything else now. He had to think about how to escape. Therefore, when he saw the monsters surrounding him again, he used a flash spell to escape the encirclement, and then used the thunderbolt technique, and he got rid of these monsters in an instant.

Although he got rid of the monsters temporarily, the monsters around him would eventually find him. This was not a solution. He thought of the secret of the soul swallowing technique he had just obtained, and he planned to try whether he could swallow these monsters, because these monsters seemed to be in the state of soul bodies.

Therefore, when a ghost rushed towards Zhang Zhiwen, Zhang Zhiwen used the soul swallowing technique. As soon as this technique appeared, Zhang Zhiwen felt a force rushing out directly from his soul, and then instantly enveloped the ghost monster, but the ghost monster was unharmed, just slightly blocked and rushed towards Zhang Zhiwen again, and Zhang Zhiwen was unable to swallow the other party's soul power.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Zhiwen knew very well that this trick would not work against such monsters, and he was running out of power now. He could only release the Taoist magic once more at most. Apart from that, Zhang Zhiwen basically had no other chances. If these monsters took away his power again, it would not be long before he would die in this place like everyone else.

Zhang Zhiwen was indeed very surprised. If such a place was full of such ghost monsters, how did the Immortal Alliance get to the Styx? What methods did they have to deal with such ghost monsters?

However, Zhang Zhiwen really didn't have time to think about these things. He just thought of this problem subconsciously. So the most urgent thing now was how to escape. He had no mana or Taoist power. It was obviously impossible to use his physical strength to deal with such illusory ghosts. It seemed that he couldn't run faster than these monsters. He only had a few Taoist magics left to choose from.

The healing Taoist magic was definitely useless. The Thunder Taoist magic had just been used and it was useless. The petrification Taoist magic was probably useless. Could it be that if he turned into stone, would the ghost monster let him go? Then after his Taoist magic was over, he would just sit there and wait for death, and the magic of soul devouring was useless, and the magic of mana penetration was also ineffective, leaving only the magic of virtualization.

There was no choice, so Zhang Zhiwen could only use the magic of virtualization!

A surge of Taoist power emerged, and Zhang Zhiwen felt that his soul was instantly drained of energy. He staggered, and then felt dizzy. This was the performance of his soul being weak, but after he used the magic of virtualization, his whole body began to gradually virtualize, and then he saw the surrounding scenery began to become blurred, and then became clear again.

This time, Zhang Zhiwen was a little surprised, because he appeared in a very bright world, but the surrounding scenery was exactly the same as before, but it looked more solid. Not only that, he also saw some monks walking around, and weren't these monks the monks without mana?

Zhang Zhiwen couldn't help but look around. He was really in the Styx Realm, but this Styx Realm was a solid world where the physical body could exist. These monks without magic power walked in the Styx Realm. They walked together in twos and threes, and kept moving forward. No one noticed Zhang Zhiwen.

Zhang Zhiwen paused slightly, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind. He couldn't help pinching his arm again, but this time he didn't feel any pain. He realized that he had entered the state of virtualized soul. So what about the physical body? Where did the physical body go?

Zhang Zhiwen looked down at his body. His body was still very normal, with no difference. At this time, a monk walked past him, as if he didn't see Zhang Zhiwen at all. Zhang Zhiwen understood that he seemed to be in a state similar to the soul leaving the body, but it was not quite like that.

Because the soul leaving the body means that the physical body still exists, and the soul leaves alone, such as when he was in Wuwang Mountain.

But now it is a little different. His body and soul are not separated. He still retains the state of the body, but now the body does not have the characteristics of the body, it is virtualized. That's right, this is the effect of the virtualization technique, but this effect is not just that simple. It should be an effect of yin and yang transformation. As the saying goes, the real is virtual, and the virtual is real. That is, when the soul and the body are not separated, the body is solid for a while and virtual for a while.

Now, Zhang Zhiwen's body is virtualized, and the soul has not changed much. His other state in the Styx before was that the body was solid.

Then the Styx Realm is also interesting. It has two planes, one is the virtual plane and the other is the solid plane. The virtual plane is the real Styx Realm, and the solid plane is not the real plane. Only the soul can walk in the virtual plane, and only the body can walk in the solid plane.

But this effect is invalid for Zhang Zhiwen. He has the virtual Taoism, so he can switch between the two freely. Then Zhang Zhiwen is now walking in the solid plane of the Styx Realm with his virtual body, but Zhang Zhiwen like this cannot be discovered by others.

In this way, Zhang Zhiwen no longer hesitated, and he also followed forward. He knew that the Styx must be in front, but in this solid Styx Realm plane, he will never find the real Styx, and he will never be able to leave this world.

Therefore, so many monks here basically have no way to find the exit, and they may be trapped to death in this world. The monks who know these situations will naturally have a way to solve this problem. They will definitely not blindly enter the virtual Styx plane, because the virtual Styx plane has a large number of ghost monsters, which is no different from seeking death. Zhang Zhiwen will not enter the virtual Styx plane now. He will walk forward in the solid plane first to see the situation.

However, there is nothing in this solid Styx plane, no monsters, and no other things. The monks felt something was wrong as they walked, because it was dead and there was nothing here.

Zhang Zhiwen knew the real situation, so he was definitely not in a hurry. He kept walking forward, and then he saw something happening in front of him. A large number of monks stayed in front, as if they were blocked by something.

Zhang Zhiwen walked over and saw that there was a light curtain blocking these people here, and no matter how these people attacked the light curtain, the light curtain could not be broken.

Through the light curtain, Zhang Zhiwen saw that the scenery inside was still the Styx Realm, which was no different from the outside. At this time, a large number of cultivators began to look for the gap in the light curtain, trying to pass through here and continue to move forward. Zhang Zhiwen was not in a hurry. He also wanted to see what the light curtain was like, so he also followed to find the gap in the light curtain.

However, after searching for a long time, no one found any gap here. After a period of rest and adjustment, Zhang Zhiwen's Yuanshen power was also restored a lot. He planned to virtualize again and enter the real Styx Realm to see the situation. Anyway, if the situation is not good, he will virtualize again and exit.

In this way, Zhang Zhiwen sacrificed the virtualization Taoist technique, and he entered the virtualized Styx Realm again. After arriving at the virtualized Styx Realm, he found that there was also such a light curtain blocking it. He stretched out his hand to touch it, and the light curtain directly bounced his hand away. But soon, Zhang Zhiwen saw a river appearing in the distance. This river was the Styx, and at this moment, there were many things like bubbles floating above the Styx. In these bubbles, there were cultivators sitting one by one.

The Styx was glowing with white fluorescence, as if it was gathered by ghosts, very strange and eerie, and this was indeed the case. Zhang Zhiwen saw a head floating out of the Styx from time to time. It was a ghost. The ghost's face was distorted and painful, rolling in the Styx, wailing silently, and then it seemed to be pulled down by some force and drowned in the Styx.

In addition, the Styx also emitted a little fluorescence flying towards the sky, and these fluorescences were constantly injected into the bubbles. Above these bubbles, Zhang Zhiwen saw a rather dazzling light, which was also fluorescent. Zhang Zhiwen squinted his eyes and stared at it hard for a while, and he saw clearly that there seemed to be circles of Taoist mystical light inside!

Seeing this scene, Zhang Zhiwen seemed to understand that the monks in these bubbles were absorbing the power of the Styx, and these powers seemed to be transformed into Taoist rune fragments. With the help of the power of the Styx, they could continue to rise, as if to pick up the Taoist mystical light floating at the top!

But the problem now is that Zhang Zhiwen can't seem to get in through the light curtain. Could it be that this place has been blocked? If so, then everyone trapped outside the light curtain will surely die, including Zhang Zhiwen.

No wonder the sect monks and immortal alliance monks came here early. Maybe they already knew the situation of the Styx Realm, so they naturally abandoned the Taoist rune fragments in Tongyou Valley and Wanhelin, and came here directly to grab a large number of Taoist rune fragments and Taoist mysteries. Zhang Zhiwen only stayed here for a while, and he saw that the monks in the bubble had continuously obtained Taoist rune fragments, and they were constantly ascending.

The speed at which they obtained the Taoist rune fragments was obviously very fast, and it was almost effortless. They just needed to meditate. Sure enough, these sect monks and immortal alliance monks had come here a long time ago. Their gains were self-evident. Zhang Zhiwen now felt that the hundreds of Taoist rune fragments he obtained seemed not enough. There were more than thousands of sect monks and immortal alliance monks. These people had obtained a lot of Taoist rune fragments in this way. Their current goal seemed to be the Taoist mystery floating at the top!

It seems that being blocked from information will really lag behind a lot.

Zhang Zhiwen was quite emotional, and he seemed to have no way to pass through this light curtain now. He tried to use magic to penetrate the Taoist magic, but it still didn't work. He didn't know how to break it.

In this case, Zhang Zhiwen felt that he should go back to the solid Styx Realm to see the situation first, so he once again used the virtualization technique and returned to the solid Styx Realm. There were still many cultivators wandering around looking for an exit, but no one could find any exit.

But at this time, someone suddenly shouted, "Look, what is that!"

Everyone looked at the sound and saw that the real Styx Realm was gradually revealed behind the light curtain. The Styx appeared, bubbles appeared, and the light curtain that blocked everyone slowly disappeared.

"Hahaha, this damn restriction is gone, hurry over!"

A cultivator was excited and rushed through the light curtain, and others naturally rushed through the light curtain one after another. At this time, a large number of cultivators rushed towards the Styx like a tide, but Zhang Zhiwen felt that things were not so simple. He always felt that something strange was going to happen here, so he still stood there without moving.

These monks who rushed over seemed to have gained freedom. They ran directly towards the Styx, but as they ran, their bodies began to gradually become ethereal, and then they saw that one after another, the souls were separated from the flesh. These souls seemed to be fiercely peeled out of the flesh by some invisible force.

For a while, screams spread, and after a large number of souls were pulled out, they struggled hard, but their struggle was completely in vain. These souls were pulled into the Styx, and the Styx was like a strange and terrifying monster, opening its mouth and swallowing a large number of souls.

Seeing this scene, many monks hurriedly stopped, and then turned around and ran, because everyone could see that if they went further, they would be in a deep abyss, and their souls would be swallowed directly by the Styx.

Zhang Zhiwen narrowed his eyes and watched this scene. He now roughly knew what was going on. What a great Immortal Alliance, laying traps everywhere. No wonder few people outside had heard of the Shenglong Secret Realm. It turned out that almost all casual cultivators died here, and only a few sect monks and Immortal Alliance monks knew the inside story. They put casual cultivators in as bait and used casual cultivators as nutrients to provide nutrients to the Styx. In the end, these sect monks and Immortal Alliance monks gained huge benefits and transferred these huge benefits to the Immortal Alliance.

This is a slaughterhouse!

But Zhang Zhiwen was confused again, because he still didn't know how these sect monks and Immortal Alliance monks could enter the Styx without any danger and obtain a large number of Taoist rune fragments from it.

But just when Zhang Zhiwen was puzzled, someone in the bubbles floating in the sky sneered: "A group of ants also dream of obtaining the way of heaven, which is really ridiculous!"

This person is a sect cultivator, but Zhang Zhiwen has already felt that these sect cultivators are not simple, and they must have an inseparable relationship with those people from the Immortal Alliance.

Sure enough, another Immortal Alliance cultivator said: "If they are not greedy, how can they help us?"

"Haha, sir, you are right. This time we have gained a lot, thanks to these ants." The sect cultivator immediately said respectfully to the Immortal Alliance cultivator, and then he said, "It seems that sir has a chance to get a Taoist secret this time."

"Is the secret of Taoism so easy to get? Besides, we are all competing fairly..." The Immortal Alliance cultivator was quite happy with the words of this sect cultivator, but he still pretended to be polite.

However, just as they were talking, the Styx changed again. This time, the Styx rolled up directly, and then an extremely strong suction force was generated. As soon as this suction force appeared, a large number of cultivators were sucked over, and Zhang Zhiwen was not immune. He was also sucked over.
