In the darkness, one could vaguely see paths crisscrossing each other, like a maze, winding and winding, leading to unknown depths, with no end in sight and no idea how many deadly dangers lurked within.
Qingqiu’s voice sounded from behind, carrying a hint of warning and a hint of scrutiny: “The first level, the Soul Forest Labyrinth. This labyrinth is not an ordinary path maze; it is filled with ancient Soul Clan restrictions and illusory arrays.”
The restriction is dangerous if touched, and the illusory array can confuse your soul, distort your perception, make you lost, and ultimately trap you in a labyrinth, where your soul is gradually eroded.
Only by maintaining your true self, seeing through the illusions, and finding the true exit can you enter the second trial. Remember, a confused mind leads to a confused soul, and a confused soul leads to certain death.
David’s purple divine soul shook slightly. He didn’t say anything else. He knew that any nonsense was meaningless at the moment. Only by passing the test could he obtain the Immortal Spirit Wood, reshape his physical body, and take revenge.
After hesitating for a moment, he turned into a condensed stream of purple light and rushed into the stone gate without hesitation, only to be instantly swallowed by endless darkness.
The surrounding atmosphere immediately became dead silent. There was no wind, no light or shadow, and he couldn’t even feel his own existence. Only boundless darkness enveloped him like a tidal wave, making his soul feel slightly suffocated.
David’s soul floated in the void, and the warm golden light of the Great Luo Golden Scripture automatically lit up, barely illuminating a radius of three feet around him, becoming the only light in the darkness and his only support.
He calmed himself down, activated his divine soul, and tried to fly forward. But after flying for only a few tens of feet, the road ahead suddenly forked into three. The three paths were exactly the same, leading to boundless darkness. There are no signs, no differences, as if mocking his ignorance and insignificance.
David didn’t make a hasty decision. He concentrated his mind and activated the golden light of the Great Luo Golden Scripture, trying to probe the aura of the three paths.
But as soon as that golden light radiated out, it was blocked by an invisible force in the darkness, making it impossible to detect even a small portion of it.
Since there was no other choice, he could only rely on his intuition and choose the leftmost path, turning into a purple light and speeding away.
After flying for less than a hundred feet, a pitch black rock wall suddenly appeared in front of them. The stone wall was tall and thick, made entirely of black strange stones, and covered with dense ancient soul runes. The runes flickered with a faint blue light and emitted a sinister restrictive aura.
David’s heart sank, realizing that he had encountered the first obstacle in the maze.
Without hesitation, he activated the golden light of the Great Luo Golden Scripture, enveloped his own soul, and tried to penetrate the stone wall.
However, as soon as the golden light touched the wall, the soul talisman on the stone wall suddenly lit up.
A powerful black spiritual energy shockwave erupted instantly, hitting the golden light. With a muffled sound of “bang”, the golden light shook violently, and David’s soul was thrown back violently. A sharp pain came from the depths of his soul, almost causing it to shatter.
“This is not a physical wall, this is a soul restriction, specifically designed to target soul attacks.”
David thought to himself, not daring to try again rashly, and could only slowly retreat back to the crossroads, with a serious expression.
Since the first path was blocked, he could only choose the middle path. This time, he was extra careful, slowed his steps, and was always alert to the movements around him. The golden light of the Great Luo Golden Scripture was kept at the maximum level, and he protected himself against it with all his strength.
This time, it flew much longer than before, covering a distance of hundreds of feet. The darkness around him grew denser, like solidified ink. The golden light of the Great Luo Golden Scripture was constantly compressed, gradually shrinking from three feet to one foot, and the light became much dimmer.
Even more terrifying, a strange force began to erode his soul, his consciousness slowly became blurred, and he seemed to hear countless whispers in his ears.
There were familiar voices and unfamiliar roars. The voices lingered on his soul, as if countless invisible hands were tearing at his consciousness and pulling at his soul, trying to drag him into endless depravity.
“This is an illusion array!”
David felt a chill run down his spine and suddenly became more alert.
He knew that once he fell into that illusion array, his mind would disappear, and his soul would be completely swallowed by the maze.
He gritted his teeth, endured the piercing pain in his soul, and mustered all his strength to activate the Great Luo Golden Scripture, causing the remaining spiritual power in his body to surge wildly into golden light.
“Buzzing-“
A deep and resounding Daoist voice sounded, and the golden light of the Great Luo Golden Scripture suddenly surged, like a blazing sun, instantly dispelling the surrounding darkness for an instant.
In that fleeting glimmer of light, David vaguely saw the outline of an exit—just a hundred feet ahead, a dim blue light flickered, marking the exit from the maze.
