I have been bound in a forbidden place for five hundred years. Why are you crying when I am a casual

Chapter 1258 The Birth of the Silent Venerable, the Cycle of the Three Realms

"What's this?"

To be honest, Gu Xiu had seen quite a lot, but even so, seeing this scene suddenly still gave him a chill down his spine.

He had never heard of a world filled with monstrous demons behind the aurora barrier of the Purple Palace, let alone the twelve eerie altars that made one feel uneasy just by looking at them.

As for the figures standing with their eyes closed on the twelve altars, Gu Xiu felt a sudden sense of crisis, as if any one of them could open their eyes and cause everything to collapse.

“Gu boy, that bastard seems to be waking up soon. I’ve observed that the cracks in this barrier are extremely restrictive, he definitely can’t get out. Why don’t you shout and see if you can negotiate?” Sui Xing said.

Gu Xiu felt the suggestion was unreliable, but he still shouted into the crack, "Is there anyone who can make the decision?"

The sound wasn't loud, after all, it was just an experiment.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he shouted, all twelve altars flashed with a bloody light, and the figure whose eyelids had been trembling and who was about to open his eyes at any moment actually opened his eyes.

What kind of gaze was that?

Vengeance, madness, greed, bloodlust...

All sorts of negative emotions converged in his eyes, as if they were the most evil thing in the world. It was as if that power had penetrated the crack in the barrier and directly entered Gu Xiu's sea of ​​consciousness.

"Damn it! These are the Twelve Silent Ones!"

"Gu boy, get back now!!!"

When Sui Xing realized he had made a mistake, he cried out almost without thinking. In fact, even without Sui Xing's reminder, Gu Xiu had already prepared himself when he sensed that the person was about to open his eyes. At this moment, he did not hesitate at all and retreated straight into the gray mist in the distance behind him.

A thick gray fog enveloped everything, completely blocking any view.

Gu Xiu's face was deathly pale, and his brain was in excruciating pain, even more terrifying than the agony of his shattered soul. Even with his eyes closed, he felt a pair of extremely evil eyes staring at him.

Gu Xiu dared not delay. In a flash of light from the Mountain and River Remnant Realm, he vanished into the gray mist. When he reappeared, he was already inside the Mountain and River Remnant Realm.

"puff!"

But the next moment, Gu Xiu suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, followed by blood flowing from his eyes, nose, and ears. This was bleeding from all seven orifices, and the blood that flowed out soon turned pitch black, like the most evil thing in the world.

That feeling of being watched still hadn't disappeared!

The raw malice within seemed to be trying to stir up all the distracting thoughts in his mind. Fortunately, Gu Xiu's Dao heart was firm, and after experiencing the Seven Emotions Lamp of the Nascent Soul stage, his mind was even more resolute. This malice could not stir up Gu Xiu's emotions.

Yet that deep malice still carried an extremely terrifying power, even stirring up waves of turbulent waters in his sea of ​​consciousness.

My soul is being torn apart!

Gu Xiu's reaction terrified the Carefree Jade Pendant and the Immortal Crossing Sword, leaving them frantic and at a loss for what to do beside him. Shattered Star was equally anxious, circling Gu Xiu incessantly.

"What happened? What do we do now? What should we do?"

"What are the Twelve Silent Venerables? How do I know about this? Since I know about this, I must know what to do about Gu's situation. I must have a solution!"

"Don't rush, don't rush, I need to calm down and think it over carefully!"

"Damn it, what exactly are the Twelve Silent Venerables? Why did this name suddenly pop up in my head? Damn it, damn it..."

As if possessed, Sui Xing kept repeating himself, and even used his conjured hands to repeatedly tap his head, as if trying to knock out the memories in his mind.

Fortunately.

The three spirits didn't worry for long. Just when Gu Xiu's soul was about to be completely torn apart, a purple light flashed from his body, and then his long-dormant soul palace suddenly appeared.

As streaks of purple light appeared, a pair of eyes transformed from black smoke were forcibly revealed, and the moment they appeared, they were directly absorbed into the Purple Mansion.

As the black smoke disappeared from his eyes, Gu Xiu's condition finally improved, and the soul tearing ended.

However, he remained unconscious.

Not long after, when he regained consciousness, Gu Xiu opened his eyes and saw the three spirits crowding around him, their worry evident in their expressions.

"I am fine."

Gu Xiu forced a smile. Although he still felt like he had suffered a major blow, he examined himself and found that he was indeed alright.

Upon hearing his words, the three spirits all breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiaoyao Pei flew to Gu Xiu's side and clung to him affectionately, while the Duxian Sword circled around him in front of him. Suixing, who was usually unruly, seemed a little embarrassed and felt guilty on the side.

"What's wrong?" Its reaction amused Gu Xiu. "You're not planning to take on everything and shoulder all the responsibility, are you?"

"I..." Sui Xing hesitated, unable to finish her sentence.

Gu Xiu shook his head to comfort him: "Don't worry, even if you hadn't reminded me, I was planning to investigate. Nobody expected that thing to be so outrageous. It could be used in such a way just by looking through the crack in the barrier."

He felt that this was not the fault of Sui Xing, because even without Sui Xing, Gu Xiu wanted to investigate what that demon world and the twelve altars were.

After all, no one expected that the person on the altar would be so terrifying.

But his words of comfort did not make Broken Star feel better; instead, they made it feel even more guilty.

Gu Xiu's eyes darted around: "Alright, since you feel you're wrong, then here's the punishment: from today onwards, you're no longer the leader of the Four Ancient Saints, you'll be the youngest."

"No way!" Shattered Star retorted without hesitation, "You promised before that you wouldn't interfere with the ranking of the Four Ancient Saints, you..."

Its obsession with being the leader made it instinctively start to advocate for itself, but halfway through its sentence, seeing Gu Xiuzheng looking at it with a smile, Sui Xing realized it had been tricked. Its features immediately scrunched up, and it wore a bitter expression.

"I really didn't expect things to go so wrong. We've definitely messed up. It's all my fault."

"Why don't you tell me what the Twelve Silent Venerables are?" Gu Xiu asked.

"I have no idea……"

"do not know?"

"Yes, when I saw that person open their eyes, that name inexplicably popped into my head, and I felt that this thing was very terrifying and invincible, so I subconsciously spoke up to remind you..." Sui Xing explained.

It couldn't explain why it knew the name of the Twelve Silent Lords. It was like something hidden deep in its mind, and no matter how much it tried to think about it, it had no clue whatsoever.

However, it wasn't without any gains.

"Although I don't know what these Twelve Silent Venerables are, a related phrase has appeared in the chaotic memories in my mind."

"What?"

"The Venerable One of Tranquility is born, and the cycle of the Three Realms begins!"
