Chapter 3,323: The Red Face Friend (Revised)

i, although there are differences in strength among our five clans, you should also understand that even if my Xia family has any schemes, we wouldn't have the ability to wipe out the other four clans...At the beginning of his journey in the Shan Hai Realm, when Jiang Yun first set foot on the path of cultivation, he once went to Yaoshhenzong and entered a furnace called Lian Tianlu. Inside the furnace, he obtained the complete inheritance of Yaosheng.

And now, he is abruptly back into a furnace!

As expected, the Spirit Lord's voice followed, "This place is actually a furnace."

"This furnace has no name, it was forged by the gods, with the combined efforts of several Heavenly Venerables like Array Deficiency, Sealing Fate, and Thunderous Sound. It was specifically made to imprison me."

"Including the Angel of Patrol, eleven, no, now thirteen powerful beings."

They each poured their power into the furnace, combining it with the special runes on top. When fused together, they created the flame you just experienced.

This kind of flame, not only is the temperature extremely high, but it can also circulate back and forth, endlessly.

However, this flame is not always burning.

"Because they didn't want me to actually be burned to death, every time I was about to collapse, the flames would disappear and a surge of vitality and power would rush in, gradually restoring my body and strength!"

Of course, they can't restore me to my peak condition. At best, they can get me back to about half my strength. When I'm able to withstand the burning flames again, the flames will appear once more.

"Thus, the cycle continues endlessly, trapping me in this nameless furnace!"

Although the spirit master's explanation was lighthearted, after listening to it, Jiang Yun's heart was already filled with a chilling sensation.

In order to imprison the spirit master, thirteen top-tier powerhouses from various celestial realms, including the Angel of Patrol, spared no effort.

The Digital Celestial Venerables joined forces and personally forged this nameless furnace;

The combined strength of thirteen powerful beings, transformed into flames, constantly burned the spirit master.

Whenever the spirit master is about to dissipate, the flames will subside, allowing the spirit master to recover;

When the spirit master recovers to about 80%, the flames will continue to burn.

In short, this is how they imprisoned the soul master tightly within this nameless furnace.

Moreover, this method is also extremely safe and secure.

It can ensure the spirit master's immortality, but it also prevents their strength from ever recovering to its peak state. They will forever be unable to break free from this furnace.

And such a way of imprisonment is, for the Spirit Master, truly a great torment, even worse than death.

The Spiritual Master was also looking around the furnace, and in a flat tone, continued: "However, over so many years, I have gradually figured out the function of this nameless furnace and mastered some of its power."

"And with this power, I can perceive some things about the outside world!"

"It's just that I rarely go and look, and even if I do, it only increases my worries!"

Jiang Yun once again raised his head to look at Lingzhu, his eyes filled with admiration.

Being in such a terrifying environment, many people would surely find it impossible to persevere.

Even if it were me, I probably would have given up and ended it all by now.

Not only has the original master persisted until now, but he has also managed to turn the power of this furnace around and use it for himself.

Feeling the admiration in Jiang Yun's eyes, Ling Zhu chuckled self-deprecatingly and waved his hand. "You don't have to look at me like that," he said. "I'm not as amazing as you think."

"I haven't thought about self-destructing, or suicide. It's just that I can't die. The people from the Heavenly Domains won't let me."

"Within my body, there are thirteen restrictions. They not only bind my cultivation but also connect with the lives of all spiritual races within the Spirit Ancient Domain."

"If I die, all the spiritual beings will die, so I cannot die!"

"And the vitality and power emanating from this furnace itself are equally irresistible!"

Although the spirit master denied her persistence, Ginger Cloud's admiration for her did not decrease one bit.

Even though her perseverance wasn't her original intention, as always, if it were anyone else, most people would probably lose their confidence and courage in this soul-crushing torment and gradually turn into mindless, soulless zombies.

But at this moment, the master of the spirit was calm and composed, with a genuine smile on his face.

Only someone with great perseverance can achieve this!

Jiang Yun also understood that every time the Spirit Master made a move, such as sending him into the Infinite Realm or severing the connection between the Linggu Domain and the myriad heavens, it should have been done when the flames subsided and her power had recovered to half its strength.

Her lack of reaction to our arrival, both mine and the Mirror Spirit's, was because she was still enduring the searing flames at that time and unable to divert her attention.

After understanding this, Jiang Yun flipped his wrist and a golden sword that had broken off several times appeared in his palm. He presented it to the Ling Lord and said, "Ling Lord predecessor, is this the golden sword you're talking about"

The spirit master gazed at the golden sword, gently raising his hand as if to receive it.

But just as she lifted it halfway, she put her hand down and nodded lightly. "Good, that's the golden sword."

"The Universe in Your Hand, is actually a more advanced application of spatial power."

I remember your father saying that the space condensed within a palm-sized universe is not only used for storage, but can also be used to hold memories and even souls!

The first half of Lingzhu's words made Jiang Yun nod repeatedly.

Because the Golden Sword indeed contained his father's memories, but the spirit master's last half sentence made Ginger Cloud suddenly stunned.

To such an extent, his whole body trembled slightly as he said, "Master Spirit, this...this sword can hold a soul"

Of course, Jiang Yun thought, could it be possible that his father had hidden his soul within this sword

Jiang Yun's reaction made the Spirit Master understand his thoughts. He nodded and said, "Yes, but rest assured, I don't know if there are other souls in this sword, but it definitely doesn't have your parents' souls."

Your father, he was a man of great stature, even if he were to die in battle, he would never hide his soul within a sword and live a life of cowardice!

"Whew!"

Jiang Yun let out a long sigh.

At the same time, Jiang Yun also noticed that at this moment, Ling Zhu's face showed a look of reminiscence, and her eyes lit up with a gentle light.

This reminded Jiang Yun of what Jiang Kui had once said about the relationship between a spiritual master and their father.

Although as a son, these matters shouldn't be asked, after a moment of hesitation, Ginger Cloud couldn't help but ask: "Senior, I dare to ask, what is your relationship with my father..."

Jiang Yun's words were left unfinished, it was really hard to continue.

Instead, the Spiritual Master smiled faintly and said: "There's nothing wrong with saying this. I have an admiration for your father!"

When uttering this sentence, the spirit master's expression was remarkably serene, devoid of any shyness or unease.

"I didn't mean any disrespect to your mother, but if at the time, your father wasn't already married with a wife like he has now, I think there might have been a chance he would have accepted me!"

Speaking of which, Lingzhu chuckled sarcastically: "But where are there so many ifs!"

The words of the Lingzhu left Jiang Yun speechless.

It is not difficult to see that the Lingzhu's personality is straightforward, bold, and dares to love and hate.

Perhaps this has something to do with her being a spirit race.

This also left Jiang Yun not knowing how to respond, so he could only stand there awkwardly.

The Spirit Master glanced at Jiang Yun and couldn't help but chuckle, "In short, you can think of me as your father's confidante. And I can also assure you that between the two of us, we have never done anything inappropriate!"

Jiang Yun nodded repeatedly. He naturally believed in his father's character, and he also believed that although the Spirit Master had a straightforward personality, he was not someone who would act recklessly.

Of course, Ginger Cloud didn't dare to continue asking about her father and the Spiritual Master. Instead, she hurriedly changed the subject and said: "Spiritual Master Senior, do you know where my parents are"

After a moment of silence, the spirit master nodded and said, "I know!"

Not only did I know, but I personally sent the two of them away!risonment, he still felt sorry for their ancestor.A powerful spirit race that even the Nine Heavenly Lords and the Celestial Patrols feared, their descendants have fallen to this state.Jiang Yun also...
