Chapter 2880

The flying boat had only flown for the time it took to brew a cup of tea, and Zi Ming had already finished dealing with his matters. He straightened his clothes, walked in front of Xiao Hua, and bowed. "Fellow Daoist Xiao, I concealed my identity from Fellow Daoist, please forgive me!"

Xiao Hua wanted to comprehend the things left by Master Qin Qin, but he couldn't open the brocade pouch. He knew that Zi Ming must have the Soul Awareness Technique, so he waited for her to speak.

Now that Zi Ming was serious about this matter, he hurriedly got up and helped Zi Ming up, "Zi Ye, you and I are two people in the same world. We're like birds of a feather and we're close friends. You didn't ask me where I'm from and I don't want to know your background. It doesn't matter if you're a man or a woman. I only know that you're the Zi Ye who walked in the snow with me in Sky Patrol City!"

When Fairy Hong Xia heard these words, her lips curled into a faint smile.

"Good!

I like Fellow Daoist's magnanimity and sincerity! "

Joy appeared on Zi Ming's face as he said with a smile, "I was originally prepared to return to the Houtu Village this time. From then on, I would no longer need the identity of Ziye. However, since there is Daoist Master Xiao in this world, why can't there be Ziye in this world?

Zi Ye will only appear in front of Master Xiao in the future! "

"Good ~" Xiao Hua nodded. "Nothingness will always be nothingness. There will always be a time when it will be exposed. It is better to let the truth return to the truth and let the falsehood go with the wind!"

"Alas, although I know it is false, I still care about it!"

As Zi Ming spoke, he clapped his hands and took out the repaired Soul-losing Lamp. "What I told Fellow Cultivator Xiao and the others in front of Master Qin Qin is the truth!

This lowly one doesn't dare to hide anything from everyone. It's just that these things happened decades ago! "

Then, Zi Ming looked up into the distance. In front of the northwest, the sky was blue and white clouds were faintly discernible. It was as if the worry in her heart could not be dispelled.

"This concubine remembers it very clearly. Ever since we obtained the Soulfall Lamp and discovered that it was damaged, this concubine and Ziye tried our best to find a way to light it up. At that time, the two of us were extremely naive. We thought that the reason the Soulfall Lamp was damaged for thousands of years without anyone noticing was because it could be lit up!

As long as we lit up the lamp, there would be no fight for the heir of the Houtu Stockade.

And Zi Ye did as I said. He swore that he would not compete with me for the position of Ji Man! "

"Unfortunately, the Soul-losing Lamp is the inherited soul treasure of the Houtu Stockade. We racked our brains. Not only did we read the Magus Code of the Houtu Stockade, but we also read all the Magus Code of our people. We used all kinds of soul techniques, but we still couldn't light up the lamp. Later, we had no other choice but to visit Master Qin Qin Qin!

Of course, the first time, Master, we returned......

But on the way back, Zi Ye got a broken Magus Code by chance. It was the Magus Code of an ancient Magus Stockade that had fallen.

Zi Ye read it and found that there was a secret method to light up the Soul-losing Lamp with souls. Zi Ye was overjoyed. He immediately gave the Code to me … "

"I was also overjoyed. I thought that the great Houtu Stockade had opened his eyes and saw our hardships, so he gave us the method.

So, before we returned to the Houtu Stockade, I started to cultivate it! "

"That mystic art is very difficult to understand, and it is also very strange. Although I have been comprehending and cultivating it all the way, it took me another two years to master it after I returned to the Shaman Village!

So, I called Zi Ye. The two of us stayed in the ancestral hall and tried to light up the Soul-losing Lamp!

I remember clearly that it was a night of one and a half months. The ancestral hall was very quiet, and only the faint moonlight covered the ground.

Just as this concubine's heart was filled with apprehension and confidence, she used a secret technique to light up the Soul Falling Lamp with her soul flame. However, the Soul Falling Lamp suddenly changed. The lamp's flame flickered and then went out!

Seeing the Soul-losing Lamp go out, my heart turned cold. The Soul-losing Lamp lights the soul. When the lamp goes out, the soul will fall to the ground. I didn't use the Soul-losing Lamp to kill other people's souls. So, what the Soul-losing Lamp fell to was naturally my own soul! "

"But right at that moment, Ziye suddenly waved his bone staff, and in that critical moment, he used the Peach Zombie Replacement Technique to place his soul in front of mine. His soul was extinguished by the Soul Falling Lamp, and I … managed to escape with my life!!!"

Later, I found out that the Peach Zombie Replacement Technique was also a secret method in the Magus Code. However, I didn't pay much attention to it. Zi Ye, on the other hand, had been paying attention to it. He had been cultivating it when I was learning it!

No wonder he disappeared when I returned to the Houtu Stockade to learn the secret method!

I was careless. I didn't expect Zi Ye to care so much about me … "

Although it was decades ago, Zi Ming still had tears in her eyes when she talked about it. Everything seemed to have happened just yesterday.

"Sigh …" Xiao Hua heard this and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He knew that the brother and sister were twins. Their hearts were connected. The brother gave up his life for the sister, and the sister was willing to use her life to redeem her brother's life.

"It happened too suddenly. I didn't have time to react. Zi Ye's soul had already fallen into the Soul-losing Lamp. I could still see a smile and … a hint of encouragement on Zi Ye's face when he fell!"

After feeling sad for a while, Zi Ming continued, "Then, I performed the secret method again, wanting to light up the Soul-losing Lamp. But … at that moment, a thunderclap came from the sky. A sacred beast that hadn't appeared for hundreds of thousands of years landed near the ancestral shrine of the Houtu Stockade. It disrupted my plan!"

"Sacred beast?"

This was the second time Xiao Hua heard Zi Ming mention a sacred beast. However, he wasn't interested in the sacred beast of the Houtu Stockade. He only raised his eyebrows and listened patiently.

"The sacred beast's descent caused too much of a commotion. Ji Man and Elder Wu were both alarmed. Almost all the elders of the stockade gathered in the ancestral shrine."

Zi Ming's eyes flashed with a strange light. "The matter between me and Zi Ye was originally impossible to keep a secret. However, coincidentally, the sacred beast's body was unwell. Moreover, I was the first to see the sacred beast. So, I used Zi Ye's name to take care of the sacred beast. Moreover, I used the sacred beast's name to hide the fact that Zi Ye had returned to the Houtu Great God's embrace.

Then … I disguised myself as two people. When Zi Ming appeared, Zi Ye stayed in the ancestral shrine. When Zi Ye appeared, Zi Ming stayed in the ancestral shrine!

Fortunately, the sacred beast borrowed the power of the Houtu Great God's bloodline and allowed me to understand its meaning. I gave out orders for it, and no one noticed anything unusual. "

"Of course, as time passed, Ji Man seemed to have noticed something. However, she only probed with her words and didn't ask much. She was probably afraid that if Zi Ye went, the descendants of the Houtu Stockade would have a grudge against each other!

However, she was wrong. Zi Yan was taken advantage of by a demon and his soul was invaded! "

"Alas, the blood refining technique of the demon is quite similar to the bloodline power of our Meng Mountains!

Even the ghost controlling technique is similar. If it wasn't for today's situation, it would be really hard to find out! "Zi Ming sighed." It seems that our Meng Mountains is no longer a paradise! "

Hearing this, Xiao Hua clapped his hand and took out the bone from the space. He handed it to Zi Ming without hesitation and said, "Zi Ye, I wanted to get some information from this demon's soul. But now, it seems that your Houtu Stockade and your million Meng Mountains are more urgent. I'll leave this to you!"

"Hehe, there's no need for that!"

Zi Ming waved his hand and said, "Not to mention the demon, even swordsmen and cultivators have their eyes on our Meng Mountains Shaman Stockade.

However, after so many years, the descendants of the Twelve Great Gods of Meng Mountains are still standing. How can those petty tricks succeed?

Fellow Daoist Xiao, you have a use for this item. You should take it! "

If it was any other time, Xiao Hua would take it. But now, he smiled and said, "Zi Ye, although you're afraid of getting information you don't want to know from this demon's mouth.

But don't you think … you're running away?

Everything already exists and has already happened. If you don't face it, how can you succeed?

Just like how you want to help Zi Ye come back to life, although this road is long and endless, you're still looking for it.

This kind of determination to face it head-on really makes me admire you!

Don't you think that if you can do such a difficult thing, why do you not dare to do these things in front of you? "

Zi Ming heard Xiao Hua call him Zi Ye and thought in his heart. He nodded slightly and reached out his hand to take the bone!

He forced a smile and said, "I know!

I will definitely return my Meng Mountains a clear and bright Houtu Village! "

Then, he cupped his hands towards Xiao Mao and said, "If there's anyone who needs Young Master Xiao's help, please don't hesitate to help!"

"Well said!"

Xiao Mao returned the greeting. "Helping Miss is helping myself. Xiao Mao is very clear about this!"

Seeing Zi Ming take the bone, Xiao Hua was relieved. He smiled and said, "Zi Ye, I heard that the soul sense of your million Meng Mountains soul cultivator is very good. Can you let me see how you temper it?"

"Soul sense?"

Zi Ming was stunned. "That's what I can temper after cultivating for nine days. Fellow Daoist Xiao … is it useful?"

"Hehe ~" Xiao Hua laughed with deep meaning. "I'm curious about everything!

If there's nothing special about this tempering method, can you let me take a look? "

"Naturally, there's nothing to hide!"

Zi Ming reached out and took out a white bone-like item from the brocade bag. He said with some confusion, "This is the bone used in my Meng Mountains records. But … it seems like this item can only be inspected with soul sense!"

"Hehe, then I'll have to trouble you, Zi Ye!" Xiao Hua blinked his eyes.

"Alright!"

Zi Ming understood Xiao Hua's meaning. He spent several days to write down the tempering method on a jade slip and gave it to Xiao Hua. While he was at it, Zi Ming also gave Xiao Hua some records of other soul techniques. He even gave the bone that recorded the million Meng Mountains characters to Xiao Hua. Of course, these soul techniques were all extremely simple. Zi Ming didn't dare to overstep Grand Shaman's authority on high-level soul techniques.
