118 Shuddering In Fear

“It’s been hard on you for the past thousand years. Kill yourself for the Heretic Sect’s great plan.” The spiritual corpse said in a cold tone. Zhou Yun was stunned. He felt like he had heard wrong.

However, when Zhou Yun turned to look at Qiao’er, he realized that she was also in a daze. She was completely dumbfounded by Meng Yuxin’s words. Meng Yuxin had indeed said that!

After Meng Yuxin’s words, not even the sound of the wind could be heard. It was extremely quiet! The countless bones on the ground were still, as if the left protector had been stunned.

Zhou Yun’s mind was filled with wild thoughts. However, he had exited from the state of enlightenment when he had just passed through the teleportation array. No matter how much he thought about it now, he could not understand why the heretic cultivators a thousand years ago had such overwhelming power. Why would the sect leader give up all his cultivation to allow the five sects to kill him?

He couldn’t understand why such a powerful Heretic Sect would allow so many Heretic Sect disciples to come to this place without any spiritual energy and stay there for a thousand years!

A thousand years without spiritual energy would cause a golden core cultivator to fall to the foundation establishment stage!

Zhou Yun didn’t know about the lifespan of a golden core cultivator, but if it were a foundation establishment cultivator, they would definitely die within a thousand years!

There was no doubt that after a thousand years, because of the decision of the Heretic Sect’s sect leader, the huge Heretic Sect that had an overwhelming strength was definitely left with only paltry soldiers and generals, with less than 10% of their strength left!

Why would the Heretic Sect’s sect leader destroy his own foundation? He even made his loyal disciple, who had been waiting for a thousand years and whose strength was beyond that of a half-step nascent soul stage cultivator, commit suicide! Zhou Yun thought hard but could not find any clues!

What was the Heretic Sect’s big plan? Could it be more important than ruling the world, pulling out all the bones and refining the souls of all the living beings in the world, and constantly becoming stronger?

Just as Zhou Yun was deep in thought, after a long while, Meng Yuxin’s heart-chilling words were spoken. A lonely sigh could be heard from the sky.

“As expected, the sect leader’s vision is something I can never hope to reach in my entire life. I thought that after a thousand years of thinking, I would be able to figure out some of the reasons for the sect leader’s actions, but in the end, I still couldn’t figure it out.”

“Heretic Saintess, you’ve obtained the sect leader’s inheritance. If I’m not wrong, the sect leader wants to destroy all the heretic cultivators in the world and let the five sects rule the world, right? It is precisely because of this that he used a thousand years to weaken the strength of the heretic cultivators until we are killed by the five sects.” The left protector’s voice no longer had its initial imposing manner. She had become dejected.

“I don’t dare to guess the sect leader’s intentions, but the sect leader did indeed leave such a message for you, left protector.” The spiritual corpse shook its head. It left the range of the skeletal throne and flew into the air.

Zhou Yun realized that the spiritual corpse was holding a light green lantern in its hand. Countless tiny souls were shuttling back and forth in the lantern.

“The Heretic Sect’s saint weapon, the soul-guiding lamp. I didn’t expect that the Holy weapon that the right protector had been searching for a thousand years would actually be in your hands. You’re clearly just a little girl who received an inheritance, yet you can actually control such a saint weapon. It seems that there is indeed something left behind by the sect leader in the inheritance.”

As the left protector spoke, an even whiter skeleton slowly rose from the countless bones on the ground. Its eyes burned with soul flames that made one’s heart palpitate. This was the true body of the left protector.

“The sect leader has always looked into the distance in deep thought. When I was still a disciple, I asked him why he was still frowning even though the Heretic Sect had ruled the world so strongly. However, he only shook his head and did not say anything.”

Therefore, I know that the sect leader definitely has a more far-reaching vision than an ordinary person like me. It’s something that I can’t think of even after thinking for a thousand years.

“Since this is the sect leader’s wish, I’m willing to use all my cultivation as a half-step nascent soul to offer the sect’s saint weapon. Heretic Saintess, if the sect leader’s plan succeeds, can you please tell me about it over a bottle of wine?”

As the left protector spoke, the soul flame in her skeleton’s skull became even hotter. The soul light lit up her entire skeleton.

Zhou Yun subconsciously took a step back. To his surprise, he discovered that the left protector was actually sacrificing herself! Just the spiritual energy that dissipated from the sacrifice of a half-step nascent soul stage cultivator was enough to make Zhou Yun feel a burst of fear!

If the left protector were to truly unleash her full power, Zhou Yun felt that he would be reduced to ashes by just a single aftershock!

“Saintess, may our Heretic Sect prosper forever.” the left protector spoke softly, her voice becoming lighter and more delicate.

Just as the last of the left protector’s soul flames were about to be used up, the soul light flickered for the last time.

Zhou Yun seemed to see a young girl’s figure through the hazy soul light!

The young girl smiled gently, as if she was looking into the distance, waiting for the news of the person she had been waiting for a thousand years. Then, the soul light was extinguished. The left protector had sacrificed all of her cultivation and even her soul to the saint weapon in the spiritual corpse’s hand, the soul-guiding lamp!

“Pa!” The skeleton in the air lost all soul light and fell to the ground with a soft sound.

Qiao’er looked at the left protector’s final radiance and felt touched. If it were her, she might also wait for Brother Zhou Yun, even if it meant waiting for a thousand years!

However, Zhou Yun was different. He felt a wave of horror and his scalp went numb! The figure that he had seen in the left protector’s soul light looked 90% similar to Qiao’er! She was just like a grown-up Qiao’er!

Zhou Yun looked at Qiao’er and realized that she was still staring at the soul-guiding lamp. The more Zhou Yun thought about it, the more he felt that the left protector’s figure resembled Qiao’er!

“Left protector. I didn’t expect you to still be so infatuated. It would have been better if you were removed from the list after betraying the Heretic Sect. But this is good too. I didn’t expect that there would be another outsider in the soul-guiding lamp besides the original thirteen people. You have truly entered my Soul Guide Sect.” The spiritual corpse sighed and then nodded.

Zhou Yun looked at the soul-guiding lamp. He realized that after devouring the cultivation of a half-step nascent soul, the light of the soul-guiding lamp was not much different from before.

According to the left protector, this soul-guiding lamp was a saint weapon! Could it be that it was a spiritual weapon that was even more powerful than the Fire Dragon Sword in his hand? Zhou Yun was secretly on guard against the soul-guiding lamp.

“Boom!” Not long after the left protector made her sacrifice, the thousand mountains beneath the skeletal throne suddenly collapsed!

At this moment, Zhou Yun was horrified to discover that it was not just the mountain under the skeletal throne, but the entire mountain range, which was made up of countless bones!

From the bottom of his feet to the end of his vision, there were piles of white bones!

Zhou Yun did not dare to imagine how powerful the left protector was to be able to mobilize the bones of an entire mountain! He realized that he had still underestimated the strength of the left protector, who had lived for a thousand years and was a half-step nascent soul!

If the left protector was this strong, then how strong was the right protector, who had been constantly ambushing cultivators and whose strength had become even more stable over the past thousand years?

Zhou Yun could not believe it. He felt as if Meng Yuxin had brought him to a boss-filled area when he was only level 10!

“Right protector, since you’ve been here for a long time, why don’t you come out and meet me?” The spiritual corpse suddenly spoke. Zhou Yun was stunned. The right protector was there too?
