Hell Emperor.

Chapter 369 Su Miao-Mutation
Inside the golden wheel, the space, which was already not spacious, seemed even smaller after squeezing in two people. Even if one just raised one's hand, one would hit the wall above one's head.

Su Miao's back was pressed against the wall, and she couldn't even stretch her arms, let alone carefully check the various secrets around her. Looking at Ye Jie beside her, who was sitting casually and didn't feel that he took up a lot of space, she was even more angry and said angrily:
"Move over a little bit, don't you see how much space you are taking up?"

Faced with such groundless accusations, Ye Jie was quite helpless: "This place is small to begin with, I think I'd better just wait outside."

"No! What should I do if you run outside and secretly turn on the golden wheel?" Su Miao was still very alert and would not let Ye Jie leave no matter what. Even though this crowded place could not accommodate two people, she refused to change her mind.

After some observation, Su Miao became more and more certain of his thoughts: "It is just as I expected. The Golden Wheel can suppress the cultivation of the ghosts inside. Even if the ghost fairy is here, it will be difficult for him to exert his full strength. If he takes this opportunity to open the Golden Wheel, even I will have no way to deal with it. I can only forget my memory and re-enter the reincarnation..."

Thinking of this, Su Miao's eyes became more determined. She would not let Ye Jie leave no matter what. Under such circumstances, if he dared to start the golden wheel and send both of them into reincarnation together, then Su Miao would be truly convinced.

Ye Jie also noticed Su Miao's worry, and helplessly spread his hands. However, due to the small space, his arms almost hit Su Miao, which made her so angry that she glared at her: "What are you doing? If you touch me, I won't let you go."

In this situation, Ye Jie didn't know what to say. The place was so small that it was too cramped for one person, so how could it accommodate two people?

As if thinking of something, Ye Jie couldn't help but frowned: "Wait... There is only so much space inside the Golden Wheel. If a ghost of a larger size comes here, wouldn't it be impossible to get in? But there is no ghost in the hall complaining about this..."

Su Miao thought about it carefully and felt that there was some truth in it: "You are right. Ghosts come in different sizes. Ordinary spaces cannot accommodate all ghosts. There must be some secret hidden in this golden wheel that we don't know about."

Speaking of this, Su Miao couldn't help but feel excited. It seemed that this trip was not in vain. If he could find out any secrets, it would be very helpful for entering the King Kong City ruins later.

Su Miao's attention quickly shifted to the wall beside her, and she murmured, "Strange... From the outside, the Golden Wheel is clearly divided into layers, with slight gaps between each layer. But when you get inside, the wall is a whole, without even a single gap... Let me check it carefully, you just stay there and don't move."

Ye Jie wanted to shrug, but his intention was quickly noticed by Su Miao. As expected, he was glared at, so he had to give up.

While Su Miao was inspecting the Golden Wheel, what the two of them failed to notice was that a special guest had arrived outside the Golden Wheel.

Shen Qingge, who was waiting outside the Golden Wheel, also saw the familiar face and smiled, "It's Sister He. Are you feeling better? Why are you here instead of resting in the wine country? You just recovered from a serious injury, so you'd better not run around."

The figure walking slowly towards me was Nan Linghe in a blue dress. She opened her big, watery eyes with a hint of timidity in her eyes. “I… I want to find Brother Jie. Sister Xinyu said that Brother Jie is here, so I came here.”

Shen Qingge nodded. Nan Linghe had just escaped from collapse, and it could be said that it was saved by Ye Jie. She must have a lot to say to Ye Jie, so she replied, "Ah Jie is leading Master Su Miao to visit the Golden Wheel. He is currently inside the Golden Wheel. You will see him in a while."

Nan Linghe nodded vigorously. Thinking of the misunderstanding in the Wenxin Soul Nourishing Spring before, she felt shy for no reason. It turned out that some things had to be said in person.

While waiting, Nan Linghe's eyes were attracted by the constantly rotating nine-layered prayer wheel, and he couldn't help but tilt his head.

Shen Qingge stood in front of the prayer wheel, carefully studying the rotation pattern of each layer, and soon discovered something. To her surprise, the rotation direction would also affect the pattern on it, adding a lot of variables to the already intricate pattern.

"Sister Qingge, what are you doing?"

"I'm studying the pattern on the golden wheel... If each layer happens to meet a certain rotation speed, perhaps the hidden secret of the golden wheel can be revealed." Shen Qingge answered slowly without any doubt.

After saying that, she tried to inject spiritual power into it. Sure enough, with the injection of spiritual power, when the rotation speed changed, the pattern on each layer of the prayer wheel also changed. However, if you only look at one layer, you still can't see the secret.

"This golden wheel is more complicated than I thought. If I try slowly, I'm afraid it will take years of hard work to memorize all the patterns on each layer. Unfortunately, we can't wait that long. The King Kong City ruins will be opened soon. We have to find out the secrets before the ruins open..."

Looking at the extremely mysterious golden wheel, Shen Qingge sighed, and a hint of worry appeared between his brows.

Seeing Shen Qingge's distress, Nan Linghe pursed her lips as if she felt the same way. She had finally recovered from the collapse, so of course she wanted to do something for her family.

Remembering Ye Jie's previous teachings, Nan Linghe raised his hand, emptied his mind, thought of nothing, and injected all the spiritual power in his body into the nine-layer meridian cylinder. The majestic spiritual power nourished by the Heart Warming and Soul Nourishing Spring overflowed, and the amount injected into each layer was different, so the final rotation speed was naturally different.

Feeling the chaotic spiritual power poured out by Nan Linghe, Shen Qingge smiled helplessly. She certainly understood Nan Linghe's good intention to help, but if he didn't turn the golden wheel properly, it would only make things worse.

She was about to speak and stop Nan Linghe's actions, but the next moment, the smile on her face froze completely, and she could no longer smile. When Nan Linghe's spiritual power was injected into it, the nine layers of the golden wheel, which were originally different and had no regular pattern at all, were tightly pieced together at this moment, forming a complete and majestic pattern.

"This is impossible……"

Seeing the changes in the golden wheel, Shen Qingge opened his mouth wide, feeling a little bit unbelievable.

However, above the nine-layered prayer wheel, a fierce-looking Vajra Master appeared. His mighty and unyielding angry eyes were enough to suppress all ghosts. The Master raised his hands up and down, covering an object. Looking closely, he saw that the object in the Master's hands was the golden wheel that was constantly spinning in front of him.

At the same time, when the nine-layered sutra wheel showed strange phenomena, the golden wheel began to tremble violently, and a majestic and vast aura rose up, which frightened Ye Jie and Su Miao who were in it.

"What did you do? Ye Jie, what on earth do you want to do?" Su Miao screamed. Even though she had been a ghost fairy for many years, she couldn't help but feel genuinely terrified at this moment. "I don't know either, don't ask me." Ye Jie was also a little anxious. He didn't expect such an accident to happen not long after entering the Golden Wheel. Even he didn't know what happened.

Su Miao didn't believe it at all, and stubbornly thought that all this was Ye Jie's doing. The immortal energy in her body condensed out, and she was ready for battle. She screamed:
"Who else could have done it if not you? Could it be that the Golden Wheel came alive and started to move on its own? What on earth are you trying to do? Could it be that..."

At the end, Su Miao's face also showed a bit of fear: "Are you planning to die with me? Drag me into reincarnation with you? Ye Jie, what did I do to make you hate me so much that you would rather give up everything now to deal with me?"

"...I already said it wasn't me." Ye Jie's mouth twitched. It was already this late, and Su Miao was still making trouble here, making the already anxious situation even more chaotic. He tried to open the closed stone door, but it was a pity that the stone door was tightly closed. No matter how hard he tried, there was nothing he could do. "Besides, you are not worth me giving up everything. My companions and my family are the most important."

"you!"

Su Miao was furious and subconsciously stretched out her hand, ready to use the Dark Spirit Divine Art, only to find that Yao Yin was not by her side.

Without the magical weapon that Yao Yin could transform into, Su Miao simply bent his fingers into a sword and uttered a low cry: "Cold Moon and Broken Star Sword!"

Ye Jie's pupils shrank. It was extremely inconvenient for him to dodge in such a small space. If he was really hit by Su Miao's full-strength attack, the outcome would probably not be good.

The cold sword energy almost brushed past Ye Jie's body and hit the stone door that blocked his way out. What made Ye Jie slightly relieved was that Su Miao seemed to still have some rationality and did not do anything extreme, but was trying to break a way out.

The sword energy condensed from the immortal essence bombarded the stone gate. Apart from the sound of metal clashing, not even a scratch was left. When the sword energy subsided, the stone gate was still intact, without even the slightest damage on it.

Seeing this, Su Miao's expression became even uglier. "Although the power of my technique has been greatly reduced without a magic weapon in hand, my full-strength attack did not produce even the slightest effect. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to break the stone door... Ye Jie, you try."

"Me? I'll forget it." Ye Jie waved his hand.

"You! Do you really want to get out of here? Who knows what changes will happen when you turn the golden wheel? What if you stay here for too long and are really sent to reincarnation?" Su Miao was furious.

Ye Jie said helplessly: "It's not that I don't want to get out of this predicament, but I haven't become an immortal yet. Both the spiritual power and dragon essence in my body have been completely suppressed. I can't exert my original power. Even the skills are difficult to operate. Only the immortal essence in your body can be used."

After listening to Ye Jie's story, Su Miao realized the problem and finally understood that this was a big trouble.

In the competition in the Nether Spirit Palace in the past, Ye Jie was able to defeat the strong with the weak and use her best moves to defeat her, which also implicitly demonstrated Ye Jie's strength.

Although Su Miao was reluctant to admit it, when she really encountered the crisis of the Golden Wheel losing control, she could only rely on the stronger Ye Jie to resolve it.

Now, seeing that Ye Jie had no idea what to do, Su Miao was completely at a loss. Silent panic took over her heart. She had not yet said goodbye to her companions from the Xuannv Sect, nor to her most trusted master. Was she going to forget everything and go back to the cycle of reincarnation?

"This is bad... What should I do now? I don't want to forget everything now..." Su Miao's face darkened, and the arrogance she once had disappeared, replaced by a deep sense of loss.

On this point, Ye Jie and Su Miao have the same feeling. He is also unwilling to give up all that he has worked so hard to build, even though he didn't like Su Miao very much before. At least now, they are on the same front, and no one wants to go back to reincarnation like this.

"Calm down. No matter how anxious you are, it won't help the current situation at all... The most urgent task now is to figure out what happened. Why did the Golden Wheel behave like this when it was working fine?"

Ye Jie took a deep breath and thought quickly in his mind, could it be that the old Golden Wheel Palace Master's disciples have not all died yet, and have been hiding in the dark, waiting for the day when he can enter the Golden Wheel?

Neither Ye Jie nor Su Miao knew what was happening in the outside world.

Su Miao tried to open her senses and explore the outside world, but the cold walls around her completely suppressed her senses. No matter how she used her power, she couldn't explore anything: "No... My senses are suppressed. I can't explore anything in the outside world, or get in touch with the outside world."

Ye Jie nodded, his face showing a serious expression: "Since you can't sense it, then save your immortal energy. If you want to escape, you may have to rely on those immortal energy."

Su Miao was filled with indignation. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She glared at Ye Jie and said, "We are in this situation now, all because of you. If you hadn't brought me here to turn the golden wheel, how could this have happened?"

Ye Jie didn't know how to tell her: "You can't say that. If I stayed outside, maybe I would know why the Golden Wheel had such a strange change. If you hadn't insisted on me coming in, things wouldn't have come to this. I think you are also responsible."

At the end, Ye Jie's words were filled with complaints. He was the most innocent one. He had no intention of entering the Golden Wheel in the first place, but was dragged in by Su Miao. If the Golden Wheel really malfunctioned and sent all the ghosts inside into reincarnation, that would be a huge loss.

Because of this, Ye Jie looked at Su Miao with a bit of impatience in his eyes, and sighed, "This matter is still my fault. If I hadn't wanted to invite you to be the judge in the palace, this wouldn't have happened."

"Judge? Is this why you invited me to watch the Golden Wheel?" Su Miao seemed to have heard something from Ye Jie's words. She snorted coldly and turned her head away. "What judge? You won't even help me change my skills, and you won't even let me soak in the Soul-Nourishing Spring. And you still want me to be a judge? You'd better give up on this idea!"
