Is this girl cultivating immortality? Yunling finds out!

Chapter 46: Wall of Nothingness
Inside the cave, two figures, one strong and one thin, were sitting cross-legged.

"Hey! No more practice!"

Lu Yu smacked his lips and complained:

"You've taken all this spiritual energy away. I'd better wait until you've absorbed enough before I start practicing!"

Wu Man slowly opened his eyes, grinned at Lu Yu, and took a few breaths of spiritual energy.

The corners of Lu Yu's mouth twitched, and he stood up and stretched his body.

There happened to be a half-kneeling demon figure on a cushion beside him. Lu Yu walked forward with his hands behind his back, took a few glances and asked casually:
"What on earth is this shadow?"

Wu Man was practicing Qigong to absorb spirits. He glanced at Lu Yu and replied:
"These are my colleagues."

"Colleagues?"

"good."

Wu Man nodded, but a trace of regret flashed in his eyes. He sighed softly and said to himself:

"Of the thirty-six generals under the Demon King, only a few of us old guys are left now."

"Then why are there only shadows of them here?"

Lu Yu reached out and touched the shadow, and his palm passed directly through it. The shadow shook slightly and then returned to its original shape.

"This is just the shadow of their soul left here."

Wu Man explained:
"If their souls are still there, it means they are still alive."

"I understand. If the shadow is gone, it means he's dead."

Lu Yu understood.

"more than."

Wu Man continued:
"If we encounter any crisis, we can use secret techniques to guide our spirit soul back into this soul shadow, and then rebuild our physical body at the cost of 99% of our cultivation."

"Wow! Resurrection Armor?!"

Lu Yu was slightly surprised, but shook his head:
"But the price is too high. Ninety-nine percent of my cultivation is lost. It's like starting over from the beginning."

"I just hope we never have to use this soul shadow."

Wu Man murmured.

Lu Yu came closer, smiled at Wu Man, and said:
"Why don't you get one for me too?"

"you?"

Wu Man raised his eyebrows:
"Aren't you afraid of the 99% cost?"

"Brother, with my limited cultivation, I'm going to give up 99% of it in exchange for my life? I really don't feel bad at all!"

".That's true."

Wu Man nodded, and then said:

"This Soul Shadow can only be established under the Demon Emperor. If you want it, then sign a contract with the master."

"Another contract?"

Lu Yu felt a headache when he heard about the contract, and quickly waved his hands:

"Forget it. Last time I signed the contract, I almost got myself into trouble."

"Last time? The contract?"

Wu Man was stunned when he heard this and said in surprise:
"Have you already made a contract with the young lady?!"

The last time Wu Man carried Lu Yu into the cauldron, he went outside the cave to wait for orders, so he didn't know about the contract between Lu Yu and Liang Wanying.

“Yes, it was right there.”

Lu Yu pointed in the direction of the giant tripod and said:

"But this isn't a contract where you swear to die!"

Wu Man frowned and stared at Lu Yu for a long time before he slowly said:

"As long as we sign a contract, it will be fine. It seems that you can really place a soul shadow here."

"oh?!"

Lu Yu suddenly became alert and was about to speak when Wu Man said directly:
"Go directly to the young lady. If she agrees, she will teach you."

"Okay, okay, I'll go find her later."

Lu Yu did not leave in a hurry, but slowly sat down on the cushion beside Wu Man, tilted his head to look at Wu Man, and said:

"Come to think of it, I've been here for quite a few days now. I just happened to have a few questions for you."

"What's the matter?"

Wu Man glanced at Lu Yu. "What the hell is this place? Why is there such a rich spiritual energy only in the cave and not outside? Why is there such a scene at the end of the stream? And what exactly is that black void?"

"Ask slowly, don't be impatient."

Wu Man seemed to have completed his training, so he changed from sitting cross-legged to sitting cross-legged, and replied one by one:

"This is the sacred place of our demon race. The first demon king was born here. Every subsequent demon king will live here for a period of time."

"As for why only this cave contains spiritual power, that's beyond my ability to explain."

Wu Man held his chin and recalled:
"It seems like it's been like this for as long as I can remember, and I've never really thought about why."

Lu Yu nodded and asked again:
"What's that wall of nothingness outside? Why do you say it's dangerous to touch it?"

When Wu Man heard what Lu Yu asked, he didn't rush to explain.

Instead, he pointed to a soul figure on a cushion and said:

"Look at him."

Lu Yu looked in the direction he was looking and saw that the soul shadow looked like an eagle with its wings spread.

"Look at his tail again."

Lu Yu looked at it carefully again and found that there seemed to be a few feathers missing from the soul shadow's butt.

"See? It was cut off by that black wall."

Wu Man seemed to recall something, and couldn't help but sneered, saying:
"Old Jin is a man who gets too cocky easily. Relying on his golden-winged eagle bloodline, he insists on forcing his way into the void!"

"What a surprise! All the hair on my butt is gone!"

Lu Yu had heard of the golden-winged eagle. Legend has it that each of its feathers was as strong as ice and iron, making it the finest material among nature's creations. However, he had never expected that even it could not touch nothingness.

"That thing is very evil. Hey, it's no use just telling you, just follow me!"

Wu Man was probably afraid that Lu Yu would continue to study the wall of nothingness, so he simply led Lu Yu out of the cave.

Pointing his finger at the horizon, Wu Man asked:
"Look at the scenery in the distance. Can you see it clearly?"

Lu Yu looked intently and saw that the sky was boundless and the ground was vast.

In the distance, there are mountains and fertile fields and dense forests.

"Look at that stream again."

Wu Man pointed down the mountain again.

Lu Yu looked up and was surprised to find that the stream at the foot of the mountain was flowing intact and had not been cut off by any wall of nothingness at all.

"Huh?! That's not right! I clearly saw it that night."

Lu Yu had just said half of his words when Wu Man picked him up and ran towards the end of the stream.

The wind was blowing hard and the scenery was rapidly receding.

Lu Yu didn't understand what Wu Man was going to do. When he was about to speak, Wu Man suddenly stopped.

"Stand here and look forward."

Wu Man pointed ahead and said.

Lu Yu steadied himself and looked forward.

The blue sky and white clouds, the beautiful mountains and rivers, the scenery remains the same.

But suddenly Wu Man pushed him from behind, and Lu Yu staggered forward a few steps.

"What are you doing?!"

Lu Yu almost fell down and asked angrily.

Wu Man ignored him, but continued to point forward and said:
"Look further ahead!"

Lu Yu rubbed his aching back, straightened up and looked forward.
"This is this!"

Not far ahead, the originally sunny and beautiful scene had disappeared.

Instead, what Lu Yu saw that night was——

An infinitely extending wall of nothingness stood before him.

Lu Yu looked surprised, then seemed to have thought of something and cautiously took a few steps back.
The wall of nothingness disappeared in an instant, and the bright and beautiful scene appeared again.

Lu Yu finally understood what Wu Man meant.

This wall of nothingness will only appear when you get close to a certain distance. If you look beyond that distance, it will be a completely normal sight.
But what is the principle behind this?!

Lu Yu was confused, but he felt that this scene was a bit familiar.
This is a bit like the map seams of the large-scale games I played in my previous life!
