Above all spirits

Chapter 295 Begins to cheat

Gu Yun squinted, a knowing look in his eyes. In fact, he had roughly guessed these limitations from the beginning. Limitations on lifespan and soul consumption were inevitable conditions, but what if lifespan and soul were infinite?

Because the lifespan of beings in the upper realm is not on the same level as that of beings in the lower realm, especially for powerful beings at the level of gods and demons, which are measured in epochs, the upper limit of this wordless book is still unclear. Following Xiang Ling's words, he casually asked.

"How much lifespan and...soul did you expend to attain the ninth rank of the Holy Body?"

Xiangling recalled for a moment and answered truthfully. She had no intention of hiding these things, nor would it make any sense to do so, unless she had said nothing in the first place.

"I have a lifespan of eight hundred years. As for my soul, I can't feel it. It doesn't seem like the kind of contractual separation that demons make. My soul is still intact, but I feel that my soul power has become much weaker."

"Eight hundred years?"

Gu Yun was slightly speechless. Even a pig that's been around for eight hundred years would have reached the ninth level of the Sacred Body.

Only fairies, with their long lifespans, dare to play around like this; if it were a human, they'd probably just die.

This made Gu Yun seriously question the nature of this wordless book as a wish-granting machine. It was ridiculous that it required so much of his lifespan to fulfill a wish.

But you can only understand everything after you've played it yourself.

"Perhaps it's because the half of the wordless book I have isn't complete. If it were the complete wordless book, I probably could have directly advanced to the Innate Realm."

Xiangling responded with a hint of longing.

Gu Yun nodded; he thought so too.

"Does your elven royal family know the location of the other half of the book?"

"Oh, you're no longer a member of the elven royal family, I almost forgot."

Xiangling lowered her head helplessly, tacitly agreeing with Gu Yun's words.

Gu Yun was about to ask more questions about the wordless book when he sensed several unknown auras approaching. It was not hard to guess that this was support from the Elven royal family after Yun Konghai sent a message.

He glanced at the woman in front of him with some regret, and then spoke quickly.

"Listen, whatever you see or hear next, don't have any emotions."

"Even if you do, stop immediately. Don't worry."

"Although your seduction was very successful, I cannot deny that I am very interested in the wordless book you mentioned. I will naturally protect you until I obtain this magical treasure, and may even avenge you."

"But everything must follow my rhythm, my pace."

"otherwise."

Gu Yun's eyes turned icy cold in an instant.

"If it's because of you that I can't find Yunyin."

"I will not let you go without anyone else lifting a finger."

The wordless book certainly makes people want to possess it.

Even so, for Gu Yun, Yun Yin is still less important.

Soul power gathers, authority: Thousand Faces quietly activates.

Under Xiang Ling's incredulous gaze, Gu Yun instantly transformed into the appearance of Yun Konghai.

Both their aura and their physical appearance were identical.

The elven race has always been very sensitive to the aura of living beings, and the elven royal family is even more so. They can see through most disguises, and even if they can't see through them immediately, they will feel a slight sense of incongruity.

But the cloud sea that Gu Yun had conjured up before them had almost completely changed everything.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would have suspected that Yun Konghai had been reborn.

"From now on, just speak as little as possible and leave everything to me."

"Once we reach the territory of the Elven royal family, simply guide me using your memory."

"Unless there are special circumstances, the location where those girls in the tribe are sleeping should not change much."

Gu Yun gave Xiang Ling his instructions in an unquestionable tone, then slowly turned around and headed toward the "reinforcements" that Yun Konghai had mentioned.

"Walk."

With a single word, Gu Yun ascended through the air, step by step, as if climbing a staircase.

Before long, two visible meteors grew larger and larger, flashing intermittently.

Suddenly, a man and a woman, dressed in the same style of blue robes as Yun Konghai, appeared in front of Gu Yun.

Gu Yun frowned slightly.

Why are there only two?

He thought it was a group of people.

Is this what they call "reinforcements"?

Although both of them are at the half-step Xiantian level and can be considered top experts in this world, there is still some conflict in their definition of reinforcements.

Then there is only one possibility.

It seems that Yun Konghai has ulterior motives.

He wanted to take it all for himself.

After all, this is a heaven-defying magical treasure that can grant wishes.

Whoever possesses it will soar to great heights, so why not become the boss yourself instead of offering it up to the Elven royal family?

But they are unwilling to take the risks alone.

Judging from this, Yun Konghai seems to have a very deep relationship with these two.

They are willing to share and reveal such treasures.

Although it implies taking on risk.

There was just one thing he couldn't understand.

If he intends to take it all for himself, then what identity should he use to enter the heart of the Elven royal territory?

Having lost the credit for finding Xiangling, Gu Yun, an outsider, was undoubtedly viewed with hostility by all the elven royal families.

Thinking of this, Gu Yun's eyes turned cold.

It seems I didn't kill the wrong person; these three probably had some trump card that allowed them to kill someone at the Innate level.

It's just that the incident happened so suddenly that he didn't have time to prepare.

Just as Xiangling said, the elves were not the kind of race that Gu Yun subconsciously perceived as closed off but kind at heart.

"Wow, it really is her. She looks quite similar to her when she was young, and she definitely has the aura of an elven royal family."

"Kukai-ge, you're incredibly lucky. How did you find someone that the Elf Royal Family couldn't find for over ten years? Although she seemed to have appeared in the human realm recently, it was all in vain."

The elven woman in front of her glanced at Xiang Ling, who was covered in dust and looked utterly disheveled, and immediately realized that Xiang Ling had already been subdued by Yun Konghai and was no longer able to resist.

His strength, at only the ninth level of the Holy Body, was indeed no match for a half-step Innate Realm expert.

From this perspective, Yun Konghai's act of gathering them was incredibly generous; he was even willing to share the easy prey he had already secured.

This only increased my trust and goodwill towards Yun Konghai.

As for Yun Konghai's identity.

To reiterate, while the elven royal family's racial advantages gave them a strong ability to discern, they also blinded them, and excessive confidence caused them to lose many of the most basic abilities to question.

Noticing Xiao Li standing to the side, the elven woman frowned slightly upon seeing his human identity, but out of respect for Yun Konghai, she pretended to ask casually.

"Kukai-kun, who is this?"

Gu Yun smiled.

"This is just one of the informants I've planted among the stars in the surrounding area where trade takes place."

"Without my little brother's guidance, I wouldn't have been able to find her."
