Jiang Donghua's eyes were tightly locked on the strange black mark on Mu Chen's chest, and there was an indescribable desire shining deep in his eyes.
He is not reckless, but stems from an extremely keen intuition and resonance deep in his soul.
He always felt that deep within this cold, all-devouring cursed aura, there was hidden a special taste or energy that made his soul throb, and was both extremely familiar and extremely needed!
This feeling was mysterious and mysterious, but extremely strong. Something in the depths of the darkness was calling him silently.
Once this crazy and bold idea took shape in his mind, it grew like weeds and was difficult to contain!
Mu Chen on the side, although his cultivation level has dropped, his perception is still there.
He clearly captured the unabashed intention to explore deeply in Jiang Donghua's eyes, as well as the almost fanatical concentration!
"No! No!"
Mu Chen's face instantly turned pale as a sheet, he almost exclaimed and shook his head crazily.
"Senior Jiang! You must not! This is too dangerous!"
"This thing is very evil! It will swallow up all energy and souls!"
"If my Curse Power goes back to your Soul Force and drags you down, I will definitely be responsible for your death!"
He would rather endure the endless pain and despair than see the person who may be his last hope suffer any harm because of himself!
However, Jiang Donghua seemed extremely calm and collected.
He slowly raised his hand and signaled Mu Chen to be calm, his tone was calm but with a convincing confidence.
"Brother Mu, don't worry too much. Since I dare to have such an idea, I will naturally be prepared."
His eyes narrowed slightly and he said in a deep voice.
"My master once gave me several rare protective treasures, one of which is named Soul Severing Ruler."
"This thing can protect me Soul Origin, and it also has a miraculous effect if the ray of Soul Force I penetrate into your body encounters irresistible backlash or contamination."
"I can activate this ruler in an instant and completely cut off its connection with the subject's soul, just like cutting off the tail of a gecko. Although there is a small damage, it can keep my origin intact."
These words were like a reassurance for Mu Chen, causing the panic and resistance in his eyes to subside slightly, replaced by unbelievable shock and a faint spark of hope that was rekindled.
Jiang Donghua looked at him and asked the question that hit his soul.
"Brother Mu, don't you want to know?"
"I don't want to know what is the core of this thing that has tortured you for five years and made you worse than death?"
"What does it want to do? Does it have even the slightest flaw or weakness?"
This question, like a key, instantly opened the door in Mu Chen's heart that had been sealed by despair and fear for too long.
Yes! How could he not want to know?!
In the past five years, every day and night when his cultivation was swallowed up and his life force was passing away, he was thinking about this problem all the time!
This unknown fear is sometimes more torturous than the pain itself!
Silence.
The deathly silence lasted for more than ten seconds in the secret room.
Mu Chen's body was trembling slightly, and a battle between heaven and man was going on in his heart.
In the end, the desire for the truth and the faint hope for relief completely overwhelmed the fear and worries.
He raised his head suddenly, his eyes flashing with determination!
The next moment, in Jiang Donghua's slightly surprised eyes, Mu Chen actually took a step back, faced Jiang Donghua without hesitation, bent his knees, and knelt down heavily!
"Bang!"
The sound of his knees hitting the ground was particularly clear in the silent chamber.
He leaned down and tapped his head on the ground, his voice trembling violently due to excitement and choking, but it was filled with unprecedented firmness and solemnity.
"Senior Jiang!"
"No matter what the results of today's investigation are! No matter whether my broken body can be cured in the end!"
"You are willing to take such a strange risk for me today. This kindness and kindness will never be forgotten by me, Mu Chen!"
"From today on, my life, Mu Chen, is yours! In the future, whatever my fate is, I will fight to the death, no matter how hard it is!"
"I am willing to go through life and death for you!"
The two of them sorted things out again.
Jiang Donghua took a deep breath, and his eyes became extremely focused and sharp.
He slowly closed his eyes, the powerful Soul Force condensed and separated in the sea of consciousness between his eyebrows, and he carefully pulled out an extremely fine wisp of Soul Power.
This wisp of Soul Power is like an invisible tentacle, exuding weak but pure spiritual fluctuations.
He holds a Soul Severing Ruler in his left hand that is simple in shape, completely black, and exudes a faint cold light. The body of the ruler is covered with mysterious runes, and he is ready to deal with emergencies at any time.
The right hand pointed like a sword, accurately controlling the wisp of Soul Power, like controlling an invisible probe, slowly and tentatively approaching the strange black mark on Mu Chen's chest.
However, just when the wisp of Soul Power was still an inch away from the black mark, a sudden change occurred!
The black mark that originally seemed like a dead thing suddenly came to life!
A powerful and irresistible suction suddenly burst out from it, like an invisible vortex, instantly grabbing Jiang Donghua's probing Soul Power and sucking it in!
This sudden change shocked Jiang Donghua all over!
His face instantly became extremely solemn!
"Not good!"
The alarm bells blared in his heart, and the runes on the Soul Severing Ruler he held in his left hand lit up instantly, and he was about to activate it immediately to cut off the connection!
He was concentrating on sensing the status of that ray of Soul Force, and was prepared to deal with any possible backlash, contamination or attack. If there was anything wrong at all, he would immediately cut it off without hesitation!
However, the expected violent attack, soul tearing or filthy erosion did not happen immediately.
After being sucked into the black mark, the wisp of Soul Force fell into an endless, deep and sticky sea of darkness.
There was absolute silence and coldness all around, and the perception became extremely blurred and dull, wrapped and suppressed by some kind of heavy power.
Jiang Donghua held his breath and carefully tried to control the ray of Soul Force.
He discovered that although he could not break free from the shackles of this darkness and could not clearly perceive everything around him, he seemed to be able to barely control it, swaying left and right and exploring in this sticky darkness extremely slowly, like diving in the deep sea.
Time passed minute by minute, about half a minute later.
Just when Jiang Donghua was extremely nervous and almost thought that this exploration would yield nothing, he was about to withdraw.
Through the wisp of Soul Force swimming hard in the darkness, he finally captured some extremely vague and intermittent information fragments!
Doesn't it feel like pure cursed energy, nor does it feel like violent soul fragments?
Instead, it's more like some kind of incomplete relic image that has been seriously eroded by time?!
Soul Force tentacles, accidentally broke into a broken, ancient, forgotten corner of memory!
This completely unexpected situation made Jiang Donghua's heart skip a beat!
