Chapter 36: The Hermit Village and the Return "In other words, when the soul realm awakens, the human soul will have to pay a price to the world in exchange for dominance over something?"
Zhao Yannian asked.
"Yes, Lord Black, but the price paid by every soul walker is his privacy, and we won't ask each other out of politeness."
The silver-haired girl explained to Zhao Yannian with a smile.
At this time, Zhao Yannian was sitting in a stone temple, this hall was the largest building in the entire hermit village, although it seemed to be in disrepair and overgrown with weeds and moss, and the original statues and stone pillars were also covered with ivy, but these green clothes diluted the original solemnity of the temple, bringing people a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere.
This is the third day that Zhao Yannian has woken up, and in the past few days, Zhao Yannian has visited the Hermit Village, this very ordinary-looking small village is located in the deepest part of the Warcraft Forest, it is hard to imagine that most of the amiable villagers in the village are strong enough to rival Spark, the Soul Eater.
The two girls were explaining the origin of the Soul Domain to Zhao Yannian.
With some basic common sense of soul cultivation, Da Wuzun pestered Zhao Yannian and asked him what ancient things he had on him.
Zhao Yannian was threatened by Dawuzun violently, so he had to take out all the antiques on his body.
Unicorn rings, goblin energy crystals, Shilu's soul stones, and the alchemy notebook of his family's ancestors.
After smelling them one by one, Da Wuzun picked up the alchemy notes and threw them to the silver-haired girl.
The silver-haired girl's name is Emilyda, and she is the only attendant of the Soul Temple, which was established by the escaped soul mages to protect the existence of the Hermit Village.
And each temple was jointly governed by three leaders.
They are the Great Martial Venerable, the Great Sage and the Great Hermit.
When Emilyada opened the alchemy notes and saw the signature on the title page of the notes, she respectfully changed her words and called Zhao Yannian Lord Black.
It turned out that Sean Rodnik was actually the third Grand Sage of the Soul Temple, but he later disappeared after leaving office.
No one expected that this great sage would go to the kingdom to become an alchemist, and at the age of 170, he could marry a wife and have children.
Even Zhao Yannian, who has read all the YY novels, has to admire that his ancestors are really old and strong.
After finishing today's teaching, Zhao Yannian and Emilyada sat on the floor of the temple, and His Excellency Dawuzun was in a daze under the shade of a tree not far away.
Zhao Yannian secretly moved his body to the silver-haired girl and asked quietly, "Amy, how old is Da Wuzun this year?"
” "Lord Black, I don't know the age of His Excellency Great Martial Venerable, but the appearance of His Excellency Great Martial Venerable has not changed since I can remember.
His Excellency once told me that the price she paid was the future, and although I don't know much about what the future is, she has never grown since the awakening of the Great Martial Venerable. ” "Immortal?!"
"Of course not, His Excellency Dawuzun said that she will still die like ordinary people, but before she dies, Dawuzun will always maintain the state of awakening when she was 9 years old."
Zhao Yannian was speechless for a while when he heard this, when Zhao Yannian was most desperate, the price that Zhao Yannian promised was his soul, but after Zhao Yannian's soul realm awakened, he didn't find out what he had paid.
However, when he thought of the evil self he saw in the depths of his soul, Zhao Yannian finally chose to bury this matter deep in his heart.
The people who awaken the soul domain in the hermit village are called soul walkers, as the name suggests, they are both soul cultivators, the soul is mysterious and unpredictable, and the cultivation methods of the soul are not the same, but after thousands of years of summary, after the soul walkers ignite the soul fire, most of them will rely on burning memories to enhance the strength of their souls.
But human memory is limited, and if you burn your memory too much, you will eventually lose yourself completely and become a walking corpse.
Therefore, soul walkers will be very careful to maintain the memories in their souls, and each time they burn a certain memory.
Moreover, soul walkers also have to meditate regularly to stabilize their souls.
Soul eaters, on the other hand, are very aggressive soul walkers who use killing and taking the souls of others as fuel to boost their power.
Although this cultivation method has caused the Soul Eaters' strength to grow very rapidly, it seems that these devoured and burned souls will still have some residue left behind to affect the spirit of the Soul Eaters.
So most Soul Eaters will have some character flaws.
Crazy, narcissistic, brutal, and so on.
In Zhao Yannian's observation in the past few days, it can be confirmed that Da Wuzun is burning the memory of when he eats, this overage Loli who doesn't know how old she is, the most important thing she does every day is to keep stuffing all kinds of food into her small body.
Of course, if you only burn your memories, you will be full after all, but Da Wuzun seems to have some secret method that makes her stomach feel like it is connected to another dimension.
In just one afternoon, a Lori who is one meter two tall and weighs less than 30 kilograms eats fruit food equivalent to her own weight.
As for why Zhao Yannian knew Da Wuzun's weight, because Zhao Yannian had been beaten by a Lori in the past three days, as long as Zhao Yannian said words that could be reminiscent of height, Da Wuzun, who had extremely sharp ears, would rush up and beat Zhao Yannian.
Zhao Yannian carefully chose his direction of action to ensure that he would not let his shadow cover Da Wuzun, and quietly moved to Da Wuzun's side, Zhao Yannian said to Xiao Lori with some flattery: "Your Excellency Da Wuzun, I have learned all the knowledge that soul walkers need in the past few days, I think it's time for me to return to the human world." ” "You're leaving?!
Know that you have become an outlier, that you are no longer the same as those people.
They will even hunt you down if they know who you are.
Da Wuzun came back to his senses and said with some surprise.
"Yes, I know, but I swore to my soul when I was about to die, I will protect the people I want to protect, and I will do what I want."
Zhao Yannian said.
"In that case, there's no way around it."
Da Wuzun seemed to have a headache.

Little Lori held her head and had a headache for about three seconds, and suddenly became happy and slapped her hands.
"Anyway, as long as your half-hung auxiliary soul domain doesn't unfold, no one will be able to detect anything.
It's not a big deal. ” Little Lori didn't seem to notice that Zhao Yannian, whose heart was hit, was silent and speechless there, with tears in her eyes.
People are more popular than people, as soon as the human soul domain is released, the momentum alone can stun themselves, and their own half-hung soul domain, if you want to kill someone, you have to learn mathematics, physics and chemistry first.
After lamenting for a while, Zhao Yannian went to find Emilyada and prepared dry food for the road.
The next day, once again entering a coma and leaving the hermit village, Zhao Yannian and Luna were sent by Dawuzun to a place a hundred kilometers away from the kingdom's border with flying magical beasts.
After Zhao Yannian was woken up by Da Wuzun, Da Wuzun said goodbye and flew away without looking back.
Zhao Yannian waited until Luna woke up, then hugged Luna and told her about the experience of the past few days.
When Luna hears that Zhao Yannian was tortured by Spark, the Soul Eater, and almost died.
Luna nervously lifted Zhao Yannian's clothes and checked them.
Although it was a little funny, Zhao Yannian still obediently let Luna check her whole body, although there were still some pink scars on her body that had not disappeared, but Zhao Yannian had completely recovered her health.
However, the huge wound on Luna's body was treated too late, and it was split several times, eventually leaving a huge one-meter-long scar on Luna's body.
The huge scar that started from the left shoulder and stretched across the left chest to the right crotch, Zhao Yannian was very distressed when he saw it.
"Luna, when I get back, I'll go research on cosmetics."
Zhao Yannian assured Luna.
"Hmm!"
The girl hugged Zhao Yan naked, and refused to let go for a long time.
On September 23, 3034, Zhao Yannian and Luna returned to the city of Ivorda safely, and the attempt to explore the ancient battlefield was a complete failure.
The exploration team was attacked by unknown forces, killing 135 people, missing two people, and surviving four.
It is worth mentioning that Zhao Yannian's two teachers were confirmed as missing by the Emerald Blood Corps and the Dongsen County Kingdom Border Guards who received the news and set out to search, and under the search of the elite hunters, the search team only found Master Larry's dead mount. and a message written in the code language of alchemy.
The content of the message is "Orcs, masterminds, giants." ” On October 2, the Orcs launched an invasion war.
On November 7, Edward, the prince of the kingdom, led the defenders of the Beast Blood Fortress to resist bravely, but in the end they were defeated by the frantic attack of the Orcs.
Smashing the Beast Blood Fortress and invading the Northwest Plains for looting, the strategic purpose of the Orc Race has been achieved.
Thus the war began to enter a tug-of-war phase.
On 25 November, the eldest prince Edward, who fled back to rest close to the Inner Defenses, met with Paladin Derek Gray's third son, Vikna Gray.
On December 31, the feast of grace, the eldest prince Edward used a new type of alchemy cannon to wipe out all 5,000 elite orcs of the Bloodfang tribe, and his patriarch was seriously injured and rescued by shamanic sacrifices.
In March 3036, the eldest prince Edward spent one year and two months recovering the entire northwest, and then began to preside over the restoration of the beast blood fortress and sort out the already chaotic political system in the northwest.
In January 3037, the king fell ill, and the eldest prince's desire to return to the king was rejected by the king.
In June 3037, the king recovered, order was restored in the whole northwest, more than 60% of the nobles in the northwest were killed, dozens of nobles escaped, and they were also secretly executed by the eldest prince as a death.
On January 1, 3038, the king died suddenly, and several princes and princesses joined the rebellion.
The Supreme Council was ambiguous about the rebellion.
On January 3, 3038, the eldest prince issued a declaration of rebellion, which was echoed by many nobles in the inner and outer regions.
On March 7, 3038, the eldest prince led his troops into the royal capital, killed the rebels, and was recognized by the Supreme Council as the sole heir to the throne.
On July 10, 3038, the Great Prince Edward was officially crowned as the new king of mankind.
At the same time, 21-year-old Zhao Yannian was packing up and was about to leave for the royal capital.
