Shock: The love letter was sent to the empress by mistake

The shrill roars echoed one after another, and the bewitching voice seemed to want to mobilize all the blood-colored power to resist.

But no matter how hard he struggled, he could only dissolve in vain.

The blood color that had penetrated into Nie Chen's body had been completely wiped out, and the bewitching voice that kept echoing in Nie Chen's ears gradually returned to silence.

"Crack."

In the silent room, the blood crystal adsorbed on Nie Chen's palm lost its support and fell directly down.

Falling to the ground, the blood crystal that had lost its power was extremely fragile, and it broke directly into a pool of powder and scattered on the ground.

"I didn't expect this thing to be so weird."

The golden light in Nie Chen's eyes slowly dissipated, and a trace of blood disappeared in the air.

His brows were slightly wrinkled, and he couldn't help but have a trace of solemnity in his expression.

The power on the blood crystal was extremely ancient and weird. Even if it was trapped with spiritual energy, it was unexpected that it was broken through without any hindrance.

When the blood crystal was absorbed in Nie Chen's palm and invaded his mind.

Nie Chen even seemed to see the hell filled with endless blood and bones. The boundless and terrifying scene was ferocious, as if it was going to swallow him up completely.

Unfortunately, these bewitching sounds could not swallow him up completely, but instead activated the Xuan Gu Holy Body.

When the Xuan Gu Holy Body burst out with power, those strange blood colors were instantly swept away, and finally could only be annihilated unwillingly.

The Xuan Gu Holy Body is worthy of being the first in ancient times, and it is also the supreme holy body that has the most fundamental restraint on evil spirits.

No matter what kind of bewitching and attack it faces, it is like an unshakable mountain, and it will never break through.

But...

In the fight with the dragon blood spirit, Nie Chen knew how strange the bewitching power contained in this blood crystal was.

Even though he possessed the Xuan Gu Saint Body, he was controlled for a short period of time. If it was someone else...

"It seems that the reason why Emperor Qiu Yan's soul was polluted was not only because his mind changed during the long wait.

It is very likely that this thing is the culprit."

Nie Chen once again wrapped the blood crystal with spiritual energy, and turned it into flames with the mysterious blood energy of the Xuan Gu Saint Body.

The golden flames completely engulfed the blood crystals in an instant, and even the blood color in it seemed to turn into food.

As if to realize that even the remaining residues would be melted, the blood fragments kept struggling and resisting.

Each blood crystal seemed to roar ferociously, trying to break free.

Unfortunately, in front of the sacred golden flame, they had no place to hide.

After a while, they were burned to ashes in the painful struggle, and even the last trace of blood disappeared completely.

The entire dragon blood essence was completely melted under the burning of the flames.

But in the flames, as if it had finally broken free from its restraints, a milky white residual soul emerged from it.

The aura on the residual soul was extremely pure, not only did it seem to be uncontaminated by the color of blood, but it also did not have any other evil thoughts.

And that wisp of residual soul, which was even only the size of a finger, made Nie Chen feel a very familiar aura.

"This is... the residual soul of Emperor Qiu Yan!"

Nie Chen's eyes suddenly revealed a touch of joy.

He had never expected that he would find the residual soul of Emperor Qiu Yan in the broken blood crystal, and it was a soul that was not polluted at all.

At the Naihe Bridge, Emperor Qiu Yan's soul had already been shattered by the joint efforts of himself and the empress.

The shattering of the soul means that it has completely disappeared between heaven and earth.

All consciousness and all existence will be annihilated, and it will never be able to enter the reincarnation again.

But unexpectedly, there is still a wisp of residual soul of Emperor Qiu Yan here.

The residual soul is not a complete soul.

Without a complete three souls and six spirits, one cannot re-enter the cycle of reincarnation and become a human being again.

But this remaining wisp of remnant soul is enough to be a hope.

Although it is extremely slim, it also prevents Emperor Qiu Yan from completely disappearing between heaven and earth.

Perhaps, there is a glimmer of chance to be reborn.

If one day Emperor Qiu Yan's Taoist companion who has entered the cycle of reincarnation can see this remnant soul, perhaps they can also feel a little comfort in their hearts.

Emperor Qiu Yan's past is indeed somewhat admirable. Although it is not known whether there is really such a slim chance, Nie Chen still carefully collected the remnant soul of Emperor Qiu Yan and quietly placed it in the vast space ring.

In the room, except for a slight smell of burning flames, there is no trace of dragon blood essence.

Nie Chen still frowned and thought about the source of this dragon blood essence.

"System, do you know where the dragon blood essence comes from?"

[Sorry host, its source cannot be detected. 】

Unexpectedly, even the system had no idea where the dragon blood essence came from.

"Logically speaking, anything from Lanchuan Continent should not be able to escape the system's detection. What is it..."

After thinking for a moment, Nie Chen's mind suddenly seemed to have a flash of inspiration:

"Then let me ask you, does this dragon blood essence belong to Lanchuan Continent or the underworld?"

[……]

[Ding, after the system detection, it is not. ]

After a long silence, the system finally answered.

This answer also surprised Nie Chen.

Neither Lanchuan Continent nor the underworld, this dragon blood essence is indeed related to other spiritual realms.

No wonder the power of the dragon blood essence is so strange, even strong enough to affect the mind of the emperor's soul.

"But where exactly is it..."

After all, he knew very little about other spiritual realms. Nie Chen pondered for a while, but couldn't figure out any cause and effect.

"It seems that I have to go to the Sutra Library to find some information."

Just as Nie Chen was about to leave, there was a knock on the door.

"Is Daoist Fellow Nie Chen here? I have something to ask you."

The voice coming from outside the door was Elder Wang.

It seems that Elder Wang has returned to Tianyun Hall with some disciples.

"What's the matter?"

Nie Chen asked directly without opening the door.

Hearing the voice, Elder Wang also spoke quickly:

"Ahem, in fact, after experiencing the events in the Imperial Mausoleum, many disciples are eager to improve their strength.

But I have already been promoted to the Sea-breaking Realm for a long time, and I have completely forgotten how I trained when I was a disciple.

So I was thinking, can Fellow Daoist Nie Chen help me train these disciples?"

"No."

Even though Elder Wang's voice was very humble, Nie Chen refused without hesitation.

'This refusal is too decisive...'

Elder Wang couldn't help but cough awkwardly.

But suddenly he thought of something, and he suddenly leaned over the crack of the door and whispered:

"By the way, I heard a rumor that the empress seems to be inspecting the training of the disciples today."

"Then I'll go!"

But when he finished this sentence, Nie Chen's response came instantly.

Elder Wang: "..."
