Unrestrained Enlightened Being was in a complicated mood.
The tablet brought her unprecedented luck and glory, but it was also a source of shame. After all, no one was willing to give up their soul. It was akin to becoming a slave to the tablet.
As her cultivation grew stronger over the years, this feeling became even stronger.
She wanted to destroy the tablet!
Feng Feiyun grasped onto a strand of vitality as if he was holding onto her pulse. He channeled all of his power into the Heaven's Emergence Platform and channeled its mysterious power in order to suppress the enlightened being.
The enlightened being calmly said: "You actually obtained the tablet, your luck is extraordinary."
"It's the Heaven's Emergence Platform!"
"So the tablet's name is the Heaven's Emergence Platform!"
She reached out with her palm. It turned into a palm print spanning more than one thousand meters. It was as if she was trying to crush a boulder, wanting to crush the platform.
This was not an ordinary palm print. It contained the enlightened being's dao, capable of destroying an entire region.
"Boom!"
Feng Feiyun gritted his teeth and didn't retreat. He took out the Infinite Spirit Ring to protect himself in order to take on her head-on.
However, the difference in cultivation was too great. In the end, he was defeated. Many of his bones were broken and the ring was dimmed. His dantian had cracks on it, almost falling apart.
Unrestrained Enlightened Being's palm print also shattered and was quickly retracted by her. She let out a muffled groan and took three steps back in succession. Her eyes were filled with astonishment.
It wasn't Feng Feiyun who pushed her back, it was the Heaven's Emergence Platform. In other words, she injured herself.
She wanted to destroy the Heaven's Emergence Platform but ended up injuring the strand of soul on top of it. She had no choice but to pull back her palm.
"I see!"
Feng Feiyun stood up with a cold glint in his eyes. He wanted to use a technique to destroy the strand of soul on top of the platform. Even if she didn't die, she would still be heavily injured.
In theory, Feng Feiyun was the master of the Heaven's Emergence Platform, so he could control the life and death of the strand of soul. However, the moment Feng Feiyun's divine intent moved, he felt as if he was stuck in a quagmire. His mind became heavy and he almost fell to the ground.
He bit the tip of his tongue and half-knelt on the ground with one hand on the ground. Ten thousand beast souls roared on his body as he slowly stood up.
"When I left my name on the Saint Tablet, I had already guessed that I would be held hostage in the future, and that they might even use it to suppress me.
This has become a knot in my heart. If I don't destroy the tablet and take back the strand of soul, I won't be able to undo this knot. My cultivation will also become extremely slow. "Unrestrained Enlightened Being was extremely calm and proud. She was like a celestial emperor descending to the mortal world.
Feng Feiyun's teeth were bleeding. His eyes were cold as he gritted his teeth and said, "So you faked your death and stepped down from the throne so that everyone in the world would think you were dead.
You wanted to hide it from the master of the Heaven's Emergence Platform because after you ascended to the throne, your cultivation became stronger and stronger. However, you also felt uneasy. You were afraid that the master of the Heaven's Emergence Platform would find you and control you.
Am I right?
Long Jiangling! "
"You think you can call my name so casually?"
"Boom!"
Unrestrained Enlightened Being's aura turned into a dragon and sent Feng Feiyun flying. If Feng Feiyun didn't take out the vessel to block this terrifying aura, he would've died on the spot.
A green light flashed above Feng Feiyun's head. He put the vessel back into his dantian and coughed up blood: "You cultivated the path of wisdom master and studied astronomy and geography. You changed heaven's mysteries and deceived everyone to become Unrestrained Enlightened Being and founded Mount Potala. From then on, this became your new identity.
Such a strong will, I can't help but admire you.
Unfortunately, this method doesn't solve the root of the problem. You changed your identity and deceived the heavens and earth, but you can't change your soul! "
For once, Unrestrained Enlightened Being was not angry. She stood by the pond and gazed at the Ascension Platform. At this moment, she lost some of her ruthless dignity. She was like a gentle woman reminiscing. She slowly said, "For nearly two thousand years, I've been searching for a way to break it. I've gone to the sacred lake many times and tried many methods, but I couldn't destroy it.
I wanted to sever my soul and dao, but … I couldn't bear to do so. "
What a joke! She had cultivated to her level through countless years and accumulations of providence. Even Feiyun wouldn't want to give up on her cultivation and start all over again. Not to mention her, even Feiyun wouldn't want to do so.
"But you still found a way." Feng Feiyun said.
Feng Feiyun wanted to use the Heaven's Emergence Platform to suppress her but failed. This meant that she must've found a way to stop it.
With her intelligence and two thousand years of research, she could open a path to survival even in a dead end.
"That's right!"
Unrestrained Being's voice was calm. No one knew if she thought of Feng Feiyun as a dead man or because she didn't care about Feng Feiyun at all. She didn't hold back and said: "If I can't destroy the monument or sever my soul, I can only isolate my soul so that the monument's power can't touch my soul.
This is why you couldn't threaten me with the monument's power! "
"Tsk!
Another method that doesn't solve the root of the problem! "
Feng Feiyun shook his head. He was in a sorry state and had a hard time standing up, but he still sneered and didn't show any respect towards her: "If I reach the first level of Nirvana, my divine sense will be enough to break through your soul barrier. With the suppression of the Heaven's Emergence Platform, I can take your life with a flick of my finger."
Feng Feiyun's divine sense was forty times stronger than other cultivators at the same level, but it was still far from her level. If he could reach the first level of Nirvana, his divine sense would be forty times stronger, enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with her. As long as he could break through her soul barrier, the Heaven's Emergence Platform would be able to suppress her.
This was why Feng Feiyun said that her soul barrier was only a temporary solution!
"Do you think I'll let you live until then?" She asked.
Boundless murderous intent gushed out. She was truly going to kill Feng Feiyun this time because Feng Feiyun was too much of a threat to her.
"I'm not the true master of the Heaven's Emergence Platform." Feng Feiyun said.
Her murderous intent stopped for a moment but she didn't retract it: "If you have any last words, say them now!
After all, you've done a lot for the royal family, I'll give you a chance to speak. "
Feng Feiyun slowly stood up with blood all over his body: "You all think you've left your names on the monument and obtained its fate. In reality, your names are only carved on the heart of an ancient formation."
"Nonsense!
Do you think I can't even recognize a formation? "
Her ethereal figure stood by the spirit pond with a proud posture like an unclimbable mountain. She was also graceful and graceful like the moon and the flowers.
As a top wisdom master, she was naturally well-versed in formations. No matter how complicated they were, she could see through them with just a glance.
Feng Feiyun said: "The monument you all think of is only the heart of the formation.
The ancient formation is not far from the sacred lake on top of Mount Banda. Someone purposely split it because they were afraid that you two would recognize it. "
"Mount Banda, the ancient altar!"
Unrestrained Enlightened Being's expression finally changed. She slowly closed her beautiful eyes to calculate. Soon, she opened her eyes and said, "They flew away."
"When I used the Ascension Platform to make a copy of your souls, the sacred monument in the sacred lake and the ancient altar on top of Mount Banda merged into one and flew away, falling into the Heaven's Ascension Tomb."
Feng Feiyun took this chance to tease her: "It seems that after finding a way to counter the monument, you don't really care about its movements anymore."
She naturally knew what Feng Feiyun was saying. Moreover, she believed that Feng Feiyun's words. Their fate really came from the other end of the formation and had nothing to do with the monument.
This was absolutely a laughable matter!
Giving away one's soul in exchange for protection and favor — what was the difference between this and a prostitute selling her body?
Unrestrained Enlightened Being's expression was extremely ugly. Her aura was also extremely unstable, as if she could unleash a world-shattering power at any moment.
Feng Feiyun didn't dare to laugh at her. After all, laughing at someone who was about to go crazy was the same as forcing her into a lunatic. A lunatic would do anything, including tearing Feng Feiyun to pieces.
"Actually, you're not the only one who was schemed against. Those who left their names on the monument were all geniuses of their generation." Feng Feiyun comforted the woman who was about to go crazy.
Unrestrained Enlightened Being's cultivation was peerless and her will was firm. She quickly calmed down and spoke: "Return the strand of soul on the Heaven's Emergence Platform to me and I'll spare your life today."
Feng Feiyun replied: "Forgive me for my powerlessness. Although I refined the Heaven's Emergence Platform into my soulbound artifact, I can only use it as a rock to smash it. I can only control part of its power.
Your names and souls are one and deeply engraved on it. I can't erase them.
That's why I said I'm not the true master of the Heaven's Emergence Platform. "
Feng Feiyun wasn't lying to her. He was telling the truth. He could control the souls of the 18 geniuses, but he couldn't take them away.
Of course, Monk Zhi Zang, Bai Ruxue, Liu Ruixin, and the others weren't engraved. They were only strands of souls, so he could release them at will.
If the Heaven's Emergence Platform was a prison, then Unrestrained Enlightened Being and the others were sentenced to life imprisonment. Monk Zhi Zang, Bai Ruxue, and the others were only temporarily imprisoned. Feng Feiyun was only a warden.
Monk Zhi Zang, Bai Ruxue, and the others were imprisoned by him, so he could release them.
But he couldn't do anything to Unrestrained Enlightened Being and the others. At most, he could beat them, torture them to death, but he couldn't release them.
Only the master of this prison could release them or lock them up for life.
