Xu Changqing's interest was piqued instead, and he could not help but let out an "Oh."
Gu Fusheng thought for a moment, then sent a voice transmission. "If you are curious, you can go to a place called Qiong Valley on the dark moon of every year and attend the Mayfly Offering."
Xu Changqing subconsciously pressed on. "Where in the Eastern Domain is Qiong Valley?"
Gu Fusheng answered, "About three thousand li south of Fengrao Commandery lies a place called the Rotten Moss Tundra. At its deepest point stands a Nine-Headed Centipede Banyan.
"It is inconvenient to say more. In short, once you go there, you will understand what is going on."
Xu Changqing narrowed his eyes after hearing this, thinking to himself, A place with a name like that already sounds abnormal. It seems there are many unfathomable places even in the mortal world.
I am not interested in anything else. I just want to catch some rare spirit insects.
After waiting a while, Gu Fusheng cautiously asked, "Sir, I have already told you everything I should have. Are you going to leave me a way to live or not? At least give me a straight answer."
Xu Changqing merely grinned. "Gloomchain Soul Binding, Nether River Form Lock.
"The three souls shall not cross over; the seven spirits shall return to the bottle.
"Edict!"
Gu Fusheng was shocked and suspicious. "Th-this... what is this?"
Xu Changqing waved a hand. "Nothing. Just a soul-locking incantation."
Gu Fusheng's scalp instantly went numb. "You want to trap me inside an insect forever?!"
The next second, he felt his divine soul lose its ability to move. Even his perception of the outside world dropped to its lowest point.
When he tried to leave again, he found that there was no way at all.
