When Tang Mu thought of this, he decided to barge into the array to take a look.
When he got closer, he could feel a powerful resentment enveloping the surroundings of the array.
This forest was very strange. Every tree was planted with great care, as if they had used the Taoist technique of Shifting the Stars to gather the spiritual energy of the entire mountain into the forest enveloped by the array.
Tang Mu walked into the depths of the forest when the system suddenly alerted him.
"Ding! Miasma detected. Use 100,000 merit points to automatically activate the protective shield!”
Ding!" Detected that vision is obstructed!"
"Open the Heavenly Eye!"
He did not expect that there was miasma in this array formation.
As long as a person entered this place, they would immediately faint after inhaling it. In this way, the person who entered the innermost part would die unknowingly.
Tang Mu thought of Li Daniu who had asked him to go up the mountain, and his eyes shone with a sharp light.
So that person had let him come up on purpose?
In the forest that was enveloped by the array, there were several corpses lying on the ground. Tang Mu stepped over a skeleton and walked deeper into the forest. He realized that there were more and more people lying on the ground.
Some of their bodies had already begun to rot, while some had just died, and their corpses were still relatively intact.
Tang Mu looked at the corpse with fear. He suddenly realized which array this was.
"Soul Refining Formation!"
Tang Mu recalled that his master had once mentioned this array. It was a formation that fed on the spiritual energy in the souls of living people, and then provided the refined souls to the master of the array. This array was mainly for the array master to absorb spiritual energy and help him achieve the effect of increasing his cultivation.
However, such an array formation had long been sealed by the orthodox sects.
So, who was it that set up such a vicious array here?
Tang Mu saw a group of people lying on the ground not far away. Their clothes were still intact, as if there were still signs of life. He quickly went forward to check.
He found that they still had signs of life. They were only in a coma. The spiritual qi in their souls was slowly being devoured by this array formation.
A familiar face appeared in the crowd. He stopped his inspection.
"Wang Zhi?"
Tang Mu quickly went forward and pulled the person out for inspection.
It was still alright. Although he was abnormally weak, at least he was still alive.
Tang Mu took out a purple talisman from his pocket and stuck it on Wang Zhi's forehead to help him stabilize his mind.
In less than a moment.
Wang Zhi woke up.
He slowly opened his eyes and was shocked when he saw the scene around him.
"Why am I here?"
Then, Wang Zhi looked at Tang Mu in front of him and gradually recalled everything.
The incident of meeting Tang Mu last night was still fresh in her mind.
"Master, master, please save me, save me!"
Tang Mu pressed his shoulder and said in an unusually calm manner,""Tell me, who wants to harm you! Who is absorbing spiritual energy here?!"
"I don't know. Master, please take me away from here." Wang Zhi shook his head in horror.
However, before Wang Zhi could finish his sentence.
Tang Mu felt a gust of cold wind blowing from behind him, and the system immediately alerted him.
"Ding! Detected that a malicious ghost was attacking from 200 meters behind!”
"Ding! Detected that a malicious ghost 100 meters behind was attacking!”
"Ding! Detected incoming malicious ghost 50 meters behind!”
Tang Mu turned around and saw a female ghost with disheveled hair, covered in blood, and green eyes pouncing over.
Tang Mu quickly condensed his Dao Qi on his palm and forced the female ghost in front of him to retreat with one palm. He was a little puzzled.
Could it be that this array was created by this ghost?
Tang Mu knew how powerful his palm was. However, the female ghost who was knocked back did not flee in fear. Instead, she became more and more courageous as she fought and pounced on him again.
After that, the female ghost was forced back a few times, but she still chose to pounce on him without knowing what was good for her.
Someone was controlling the female ghost's mind.
Tang Mu understood. Ordinary people thought that souls did not have a mind, but that was not the case. Souls were the same as living people, they all had their own minds. If a cultivator wanted this ghost to be used by others, he could just control her mind.
After he figured it out, Tang Mu hit the female ghost's head with his palm and knocked away a slender needle that was hidden in her head.
The moment the needle fell to the ground.
The female ghost regained her senses in an instant. She seemed to not understand what she was doing as she stared blankly at Tang Mu.
Tang Mu's eyes flashed with a fierce light as he shouted,""Tell me, who ordered you to watch over the formation!”
The female ghost was frightened by Tang Mu's imposing manner. She quickly shook her head and said in a panic,"It wasn't me. I didn't harm anyone. I was also killed by someone else!”
"There's a formation set up in this forest. Since you have a way to stay unharmed, you should know that it's called the Soul Refining Formation. There's miasma in the formation that can confuse people's minds. Those who enter the formation will be bewitched and stay there.”
"At night, the souls of the people trapped by this array will be automatically sent back to the village by this array. Because the geographical location of the village is in a corner with the array in this forest, it is like a mother and son conjoined.”
Upon hearing this, Tang Mu seemed to understand why he had seen Wang Zhi in the village that night and disappeared the next morning.
The female ghost looked a little miserable. Wang Zhi shrank behind Tang Mu in fear and asked in fear,
"Why did they send our souls back to the village at night? What did this array do to our souls?”
The female ghost didn't answer. She probably didn't know either.
Tang Mu glanced at Wang Zhi behind him and began to explain slowly.
"Humans have three souls and seven spirits, and the three souls and seven spirits are inseparable. However, due to the terrain and layout of Fulu Village, it is like a huge sacrificial vessel. Therefore, an array can reshuffle the three souls and seven spirits of a person and separate them.”
"Among the three souls, the light of the fetus gathers the qi of Taiqing Yang and belongs to the sky. Cultivators who obtain it can quickly advance their cultivation.”
"Therefore, this array will choose to send you back to the village at night when the main Yin is in place. The purpose is to separate the Taiqing Yang Qi in your souls. Separation requires a process.”
