Three days later, Chen Jieqi and Dugu Bo left Heaven Dou City and walked straight north.
This Cangmang Mountain Range is several hundred miles northwest of Heaven Dou City, and the two of them did not choose to fly at first.
He didn't take off until he was in a deserted place,
After spending a few days intermittently, we stopped and continued on our way when we reached the depths of the mountains.
Dugu Bo walked in front, with Soul Power gathering momentum all around.
"Grandpa, do you think Titled Douluo really can't get in through that fog?"
Chen Jieqi asked curiously.
"When we get here, I'll find out if I try it." Dugu Bo didn't look back.
"But I have lived for so many years and I have never seen any fog that can stop me."
Chen Jieqi didn't answer. He touched the mark between his eyebrows, where he started from entering the mountains.
He felt faintly warm, as if he was giving some guidance.
On the fifth day after setting off, they found the last mark on the map, a canyon entrance covered by vines.
"Is this right here?" Dugu Bo asked.
Chen Jieqi's eyebrow mark was permed, and the feeling was very similar to when Stone Gate was close to it.
It's not burning, it's a warm feeling of being watched by something.
"It should be inside," he said.
Dugu Bo turned around, his eyes rested on the center of his eyebrows for two breaths, and then moved away.
"Then let's go."
The two walked through the narrow canyon for about half an hour, when fog indeed appeared in front of them.
It's not an ordinary fog, it glows with a faint golden light, like a layer of gauze, rising from the ground to the mid-air.
The valley in front is completely covered, and through the fog, the outline of the valley can be vaguely seen.
But further inside, nothing could be seen clearly.
Dugu Bo stopped and frowned, asking me to try your strength.
He raised his hand, and a green Soul Power blasted into the fog. The fog surged a few times, and soon returned to its original state.
Like nothing happened.
"I don't believe it." Dugu Bo also became stubborn, and the seventh Soul Ring shined.
"Green Jade Serpent Emperor Avatar!"
I saw Dugu Bo instantly turning on Martial Soul Avatar, and a snake as thick as a bucket raised its head ferociously behind it.
The snake's body stood up, Soul Power condensed in its two pupils,
[Eighth Soul Skill·Time Freeze]
Two rays that can lock and imprison attacks, creatures, and energy go straight to the light mist,
At this time, the mist was not as simple as before, but filled with holy white light. After the ray of Dugu Bo came into contact,
The ray energy begins to be slowly eroded, purified, and dissolved until it disappears.
"Sure enough, you are so overbearing." Dugu Bo took two steps back.
"It's not an ordinary fog. I can't break this Soul Power, and Soul Skill has been purified, and my spiritual power can't penetrate it."
He turned to look at Chen Jieqi, "Try it."
Hearing this, Chen Jieqi stepped forward and put his hand into the mist. The mark between his eyebrows lit up, and golden light poured out from his palm.
Slowly blending with the mist.
This time the mist did not repel him, but instead seemed to come alive, slowly parting to both sides, revealing a narrow passage.
"Follow me." Chen Jieqi said, taking the lead into the fog.
Dugu Bo followed him, scanning the surroundings with vigilance, the fog billowing around them,
But it never closed. The passage was only big enough for one person to pass through. The road under my feet was still flat, and the sky above my head was not visible.
After walking for about a stick of incense, the fog gradually thinned and a bright light appeared in front of me.
Chen Jieqi quickened his pace and walked out of the fog, his eyes suddenly opened up.
This is a valley surrounded by mountains, isolated from the outside world. There is no fog in the valley, and the sun shines down from the top of the mountain.
The green grass shines with warm golden light, and there is an indescribable fragrance in the air.
It smells like the sunshine after the rain, or like the fragrance of some ancient flowers.
In the center of the valley, there is a clear spring with a small eye. The water is as calm as a mirror, reflecting the sky.
But there was a faint golden light flowing under the water, as if something was shining in the depths.
This is the legendary Holy Spring of Light.
Chen Jieqi took a deep breath and walked towards the spring. Dugu Bo followed behind, scanning the valley and suddenly stopped.
"Wait." He pulled Chen Jieqi.
Chen Jieqi was pulled and staggered. Following Dugu Bo's gaze, he saw a snow-white horse lying on the grass beside the spring.
No, not a horse.
It is taller than a horse, its hooves are slender, its mane hangs down like silver threads, and there is a spiral golden horn on its forehead.
Its eyes were pale golden, like two gentle gems, looking at them both.
This is exactly Unicorn.
At this time, Dugu Bo's Soul Power exploded instantly, and the pressure of level 95 Titled Douluo spread.
But Unicorn just glanced at him, his eyes calm, even with a hint of disdain,
It seemed to be saying "You can't beat me." Then, it looked at Chen Jieqi.
At this time, Chen Jieqi's mark on the center of his eyebrows became hot, not burning, but resonating. He could feel it.
Unicorn's spiritual power is touching him, like a hand, gently and slowly probing into the depths of his mark.
Over and over again, followed by a long silence.
"You're finally here." Unicorn spoke, his voice was clear and crisp, like the tinkling of spring water, and it was hard to tell the male from the female.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Chen Jieqi frowned and was stunned for a moment, "Wait for me?"
"It's not you." Unicorn's eyes fell on his eyebrows,
"It's something inside your body, God of Light fragments, Heart of the Naaru... whatever it's called,
It's here, I've been waiting for it."
Dugu Bo's brows tightened, Soul Power's momentum was still there,
"Who the hell are you?"
Unicorn didn't look at him, only stared at Chen Jieqi.
"In ancient times, there were two guardian sacred beasts under God of Light. After God of Light fell, I followed his orders,
Stay here and wait for the successor to the fragment to appear.
Chen Jieqi understood clearly and then asked,
"What is that thing behind Stone Gate?"
"The remains of Temple of Light." Unicorn said,
"Before God of Light fell, the last 'power' was sealed there. Only those who hold the fragment can open it."
"Then why can't I open it?"
"Not strong enough," Unicorn's eyes fell on him, and he saw through it with a look of disgust.
"You're not even Soul King, why should you turn it on?"
Chen Jieqi smiled awkwardly and did not refute,
The place fell silent for a moment.
Unicorn pondered for a while and suddenly said,
"If you can come here, I can help you, but I have to see if you are pure or not."
"What do you think?"
Unicorn turned around and walked towards the holy spring. It stopped by the spring, raised its front hooves and lightly stepped on the ground.
The spring water rippled, and a golden light rose from the bottom of the water, condensing into a suspended ball of light in the air.
"This is the test left by ancient God of Light."
Unicorn looked at the floating ball of light quietly, his voice carrying an ancient and solemn tone.
"You go in and use your light to induce purification. If you succeed, you will be qualified to inherit this power."
Chen Jieqi looked up.
The warm holy light flows on the surface of the ball of light, but the deeper you go, the more gray and black lines are entrenched.
It squirmed and entangled slowly like a living creature, exuding a heart-stopping smell of decay.
There was still a vague sense of control hidden in that aura, which made his heart palpitate inexplicably.
"What if it fails?"
"Failed?" Unicorn glanced at him,
"You will be backlashed, and the darkness and filth will swallow up the source of your holy light. At least Martial Soul will be damaged and broken," it paused.
"The most important thing... become a part of them."
Chen Jieqi's hand shook.
"You brat...!" Dugu Bo's Soul Power couldn't control his escape and grabbed his shoulder.
"Be them..." Chen Jieqi didn't look back, his voice was a little tight,
"Do you still have self-awareness?"
Unicorn has no answer.
At this moment, Heart of the Naaru between the eyebrows suddenly became slightly hot, and a very thin golden thread flashed across,
Unicorn's body stiffened for a moment.
Chen Jieqi didn't notice, he just felt that the wind in the valley suddenly stopped, the grass blades were hanging down, the spring water was not rippled, and even the sunlight seemed to be frozen in the air.
Then the wind picked up again, pushing from behind him, carrying a smell of earth and roots, like the earth breathing.
Suddenly he stopped shaking.
"I'll try."
Chen Jieqi gently interrupted Dugu Bo. This time, there was no hesitation in the voice, only an unprecedented firmness.
