Chapter 978 Fox Skin

It is said that the reason why Gu Shiyi was able to get out was because she was born with the ability to suppress ghosts and had a strong body. Although the man in black could borrow the bodies of various beasts, they were ultimately no match for the body of a real dragon. Moreover, when the beasts from the world of the living entered the underworld, all their abilities would be suppressed by the yin energy, not to mention that they were borrowed?

Gu Shiyi chuckled and said,

"Yan'er, how long do you think he can hold out in there?"

Thinking back to when I was there, I fought all over the hungry ghost hell. It took me three full months, and those hungry ghosts who were beaten so hard could only kneel down with their heads in their hands when they saw me, and they didn't even dare to think of running away!
Pu Yanlan thought for a while and said,
"It probably won't last for a few hours..."

It's not that she looked down on the cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage, but in a place where even the underworld has no control, except for a true dragon body like Gu Shiyi who is naturally able to restrain evil spirits, even a ghost cultivator like Pu Yanlan would not be able to survive for more than three days if he entered!

But a few hours were enough, Pu Yanlan took out a bottle of pills,

"Since we have locked him up, we can take the elixir now!"

This is a bottle of Turtle Breath Pills that Pu Yanlan made when she had nothing to do. After taking these Turtle Breath Pills, all vitality in a person's body can be covered up, and the heartbeat and breathing will drop to almost death-like levels. As long as two people take the pills and pretend to be dead for a short period of time, they can get out of this illusion. This is the method Pu Yanlan came up with. Although this method is a bit risky, it is the fastest and simplest way to leave this illusion!
The two of them took the Turtle Breathing Pill together. As Eleven's body was strong, Pu Yanlan only needed to take one pill, but she took three. Then the two of them fell into a coma and fell asleep...

When Gu Shiyi woke up again, he saw the jade pillars and the ceiling of the Ten Thousand Immortals Hall. Gu Shiyi rolled over and got up, looked around, and turned to look at Pu Yanlan. Pu Yanlan's eyelids were trembling constantly, while the three people from the Phoenix Clan were lying on the ground unconscious.

"call……"

Gu Shiyi breathed a sigh of relief. In a Ten Thousand Immortals Palace full of dangers, a brief coma would have been a huge risk. Fortunately, they made the right bet!
At this time, Pu Yanlan also woke up, turned over and sat up. The two looked at each other and felt lucky. They stood up and saw that the hall was empty, with only an altar placed right above. On the jade altar, there was a wooden frame supporting a fox skin. The fox skin was snow-white without a single stray hair, with a pointed mouth on top and nine tails hanging down from the bottom. The two of them widened their eyes when they saw it.
"The skin of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox?"

Gu Shiyi took a few steps forward and carefully examined the nine tails of fox fur. His eyes widened in surprise.
"Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox! How could they skin it... Who did this?"

Pu Yanlan was shocked by the Nine-tailed Fox's power.

"It's just a fox skin, but it can actually trap us in it and keep us alive. If the real Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox were here, we would be trapped and unable to get out if it just took one look at us!"

Speaking of illusion, Gu Shiyi originally looked down on it. He thought that illusion was just about making something fake to scare people, and that miracles could be made as long as one was strong enough. But this time, Gu Shiyi learned a lesson. When illusion reaches a superb level, it can really create a desperate situation that one can never escape from!
Gu Shiyi reached out and took off the fox skin.
"Yan'er, let's take this thing back and put it in the secret realm. If an enemy breaks in, the illusion alone will be enough to give him a hard time!"

Pu Yanlan nodded, and after watching Gu Shiyi collect the fox skin, she looked around.
"let's go!"

The two of them, along with the three people from the Phoenix Clan, picked a door and entered. The hall was empty. Gu Shiyi raised his eyebrows and turned to ask Pu Yanlan,
"How is it here?"

Pu Yanlan nodded,
"can!"

They took out the crystal stone of the Erosion Dragon and poured Yin energy into it. A crack appeared in the ground. It was impossible to open a space magic tool in the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals, but the Hungry Ghost Hell was a stable world that originally existed in heaven and earth. It was not a space magic tool. Moreover, they only needed to open a crack and pull the man in black out. They did not have to worry about disrupting the magic formation here.

As soon as the crack in the ground opened, gusts of cold wind rushed out, and the sound of ghosts crying could be heard. Gu Shiyi laughed, walked over to the crack, and shouted into it,
"Where is the Hungry Ghost King?"

Immediately, a hungry ghost king with horns on his head appeared in the crack. He slowly poked his head out through the crack, carefully looked around, and his two blood-red eyes bulged out of his eye sockets, revealing fear.
"My Lord...My Lord...My Lord...what kind of place is this...I dare not come out. The power of the magic circle here is very strange. If I come out, I will be torn to pieces by the magic circle..."

Gu Shiyi smiled and reached out to pat its bald skull, which was only covered with skin.
"Don't worry, you don't have to come out. I just want to ask you... Is the person who fell in front still here?"

The Hungry Ghost King nodded.
"Still..."

As he spoke, he suddenly stretched out his long blood-red tongue and licked the side of his mouth.
"He released a lot of delicious food, and I ate them all... I just ate one of his feet, it tasted good..."

Gu Shiyi frowned,
"he died?"

"No...no..."

When the Hungry Ghost King saw Gu Shiyi frowning, he was immediately frightened and quickly waved his ghost claws.

"No...no...I just ate a foot, but..."

Before it could finish its words, a scream came from below.
"Ah...you actually bit my arm...ah...I will fight you!"

Gu Shiyi heard this and said quickly,
"Quick! Get him up!"

Although the Hungry Ghost King was unwilling, he was more afraid of Gu Shiyi, so he did not hesitate, turned around and went back. Soon, he dragged the black-robed man who was still screaming and covered with hungry ghosts. Gu Shiyi took a closer look and shook his head. At this time, the black-robed man could not be called the black-robed man, because he no longer had a robe on his body. He was naked, and his whole body was covered with little ghosts biting his flesh. One of his feet was missing below the knee, and one of his arms was bitten to only bones. He was covered in blood and red. He should be called the Little Red Man!

Gu Shiyi immediately glared.
"Let go!"

She shouted, and all the hungry ghosts were frightened by her. They opened their mouths and fell down one by one, revealing the scarred body of the man in black robe. Many of the wounds were so deep that the bones were exposed. The one on his chest was particularly horrible. Gu Shiyi could even see his beating heart through a bloody hole!
Gu Shiyi disliked the blood on the black-robed man and didn't want to dirty his hands, so he raised his hand and transformed it into a giant claw, grabbed the black-robed man and threw him onto the ground of the hall. When the hungry ghost king saw that the job was done, he immediately shrank his head and quickly drilled back. The cracks in the ground immediately shrank, and disappeared without a trace in an instant, as if he had never appeared.

Gu Shiyi looked at the black-robed man on the ground and shook his head repeatedly. He looked so miserable now, and there was no trace of his previous arrogance. Pu Yanlan looked down and raised the oil lamp. The dim light shone on the black-robed man, and he could not move immediately. He swept his resentful eyes across the faces of the two men, gritted his teeth and said hatefully,
"You are quite capable. You actually managed to trick me into falling into the Hungry Ghost Hell. You didn't kill me. What do you want to get out of me?"

Gu Shiyi smiled and said,
"You are indeed an old hand. You already know what we want to do without us asking."

Seeing that his injuries were too severe, Gu Shiyi was afraid that he would die all of a sudden and his soul would be taken away, so he poked a few acupoints on his arms and thighs to stop the gushing blood. The bleeding did stop, but he had been in the Hungry Ghost Hell, and his body was already stained with thick Yin energy. And the grab by Gu Shiyi just now sealed his soul. He had no way to mobilize his spiritual energy, and could only let the Yin energy enter his body. He had no elixir to heal his wounds, so even if the two men didn't do anything to him, it would only take him half a day to die if they left him here to fend for himself!

However, the black-robed man did not lose the arrogance of a high-ranking monk, and said bitterly, "Although my soul has been sealed, I still have a way to die. The worst that can happen is that I will self-destruct!"

Pu Yanlan said lightly,

"I am a ghost cultivator, and I know some methods of searching the soul and taking away the spirit. Unless you self-destruct now, if I get the upper hand and make your soul incomplete, you can't blame me then..."

Ghost cultivators have a bad reputation in all the worlds. Although this man in black robe is a beast tamer, some monsters or ordinary beasts may have violent tempers and would rather die than surrender. Therefore, the beast taming technique also includes torturing the monster's soul to force it to submit. How cruel is this method? How could the man in black robe not know it?
Therefore, when he heard Pu Yanlan's words, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. After staring at Pu Yanlan for a long while, he said dejectedly,

"If you are willing to swear an oath and promise me that you will protect my soul and allow it to be reincarnated, I will tell you everything..."

Pu Yanlan thought for a moment and said slowly,
"I can promise you, but only in this Ten Thousand Immortals Palace. I can't do it, I can only do it after I take you out!"

Seeing that she agreed so readily, the man in black robe became suspicious.

"You won't resort to any tricks, will you?"

Gu Shiyi smiled and said,
"Your realm is so high, you must have a lot of experience. If we did something wrong, would you not be able to see it?"

The black-robed man turned to stare at Gu Shiyi again, and after looking him up and down, he sighed,
"Your true dragon body is not yet fully grown. If you were left outside, I would have to gather all the power of the sect to capture you..."

Dream on, you old man!
Gu Shiyi just smiled when he heard it. Pu Yanlan pointed at the three people from the Phoenix Clan beside him.

"What do you want to do by arresting them?"

The black-robed man turned to look at the three Phoenix Clan members and laughed miserably.
"This Ten Thousand Immortals Palace was built by the ancient gods. I think you all know this. However, what you don't know is that the founder of our Shenyu Sect is a famous master of magic arrays in the Three Realms. He entered the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace three times and compared it with the ancient secret books. He then calculated where the main hall of the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace is. As long as you enter the main hall, you can control the entire Ten Thousand Immortals Palace. At that time... the entire Ten Thousand Immortals Palace can belong to one person..."

Pu Yanlan and Gu Shiyi looked at each other. They had heard the black-robed man's words in front of them. Now it sounded like he was not talking nonsense. Gu Shiyi thought for a moment and asked again,

"How do I get in and open it?"

The black-robed man said,

"The founder of the sect left behind a method to enter. This Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals was built by ancient gods. No living creature can enter the main hall. One can only use a little bit of the power of chaos in the true spirit bloodline to forcibly open a gap..."

Having said this, he looked at the three people from the Phoenix Clan and said,
"The blood in their bodies is too thin. Even if the three of them were combined, it would still be barely enough. But you..."

He looked at Gu Shiyi.

"You are a pure dragon, so it is easy for you to enter the palace..."

Gu Shiyi asked with a smile,
"What's in there?"

The man in black robe shook his head.
"The Grandmaster found it once, but he never entered it, and he didn't know what was inside. However, this Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals was built for all living things. The Grandmaster guessed that there must be the mystery of the reincarnation of thousands of living things..."

The mystery of reincarnation?

Gu Shiyi and Pu Yanlan looked at each other with some doubts. The man in black robe said,
"Aren't you all wondering why the souls of all the people who died here were taken away by the magic circle?"

Pu Yanlan raised her eyebrows and said,

"So... you think that entering that place will allow you to revive your brother?"

The man in black robe looked at the two of them in surprise, then he understood.
"So... when I entered this palace, you were nearby..."

He paused and nodded.
"That's right... My senior brother died too unjustly. I will naturally revive him if I have a chance!"

Gu Shiyi narrowed his eyes.

"Your ancestor must have passed away thousands or tens of thousands of years ago. The old man would definitely not tell you in person. He must have left you some notes or books... Where is it... Take it out and have a look..."

Whether it was something left behind by the founder is up to him to decide, so naturally he has to find some physical evidence!
The black-robed man was stunned when he heard this. He lowered his head to look at his bloody body. The blood gushing out of his body had stopped a little, but the bitten foot and arm could not grow back. His black robe had been torn off, and his storage bag and spirit beast bag were nowhere to be found. He sneered and said,
"I originally put it in the storage bag... now you can see if it is still there?"

Gu Shiyi laughed when he heard this.
"This is easy to handle!"

But in front of him, he opened the Hungry Ghost Hell again, called out the Hungry Ghost King, and gave him an order:
"Find what he left down there..."

The Hungry Ghost King obeyed the order and went back to look for it. He actually found a spirit beast bag and a storage bag, and respectfully raised his hands to Gu Shiyi. The black-robed man had been sneering at first, but when he saw that the Hungry Ghost King really found two bags for Gu Shiyi, his face changed, and his lips moved several times, but he still didn't say a word...

Will resume two updates tomorrow!
