The relay station had been through a lot and looked extremely old.
Only half of the plaque was left, and the words were so blurry that one could only make out half of the word "stand."
The gate, which was almost entirely faded from red paint, was ajar. It swayed slightly in the whistling of the cold wind, like a flag that summoned the soul when leaving the coffin.
PEI Ling strode forward, pushed the door open, and walked in.
The layout of this courier station was similar to that of the previous courier stations. After turning around the screen in front of them, they saw a courtyard covered in moss.
Behind the moon gate, the hall was brightly lit, and the door was half open. Behind a chest-high counter near the door, a black robe as dark as the night could be seen.
Su Xirou, Meng Hongling, and Huan yunzhen followed closely behind.
The sound of footsteps mixed with the melodious sound of rings and pendants breaking the dead silence in the courtyard.
Very quickly, PEI Ling walked to the entrance of the main hall. With a thought, a wisp of energy shot out, and the fan engraved with countless demonic and ghost spiritual plants quickly opened.
The bright lights in the lobby immediately poured out.
What was revealed along with the lights was that the entire central room was packed with people.
Although the first eight courier stations "great halls were also extremely bright, they were all empty.
But now, it was almost full.
These people all had powerful auras and their mana circulated around their bodies, pure and surging. They were either extremely cold and bloodthirsty; Some were lively and full of vitality, some were withered like death, and some were like walking corpses. They were either in white robes and golden crowns, or they were iron-blooded and golden-colored, with an imposing aura. Some were graceful and Noble, some had a peach-like face, some wore a red dress, and some wore purple hairpins. Some were free and unfettered, uninhibited ...
They were cultivators from the nine great sects!
At this moment, all the cultivators were holding a bowl of soul wine. When they sensed someone coming in, all of them turned to the door and looked at PEI Ling.
Seeing this scene, PEI Ling frowned, but he still walked into the hall and quickly found the only empty table to sit down.
The three female cultivators looked calm and followed him. They lifted their skirts and took their seats.
PEI Ling had just sat down when the many cultivators in the hall raised their heads in unison and drank the soul wine in the ceramic bowls.
After these cultivators drank the soul wine, their auras changed slightly. After that, they stared at PEI Ling again. Their expressions were calm and expressionless.
In the relay station, the lights that were originally bright as day suddenly dimmed.
The door that was not far away from PEI Ling seemed to have been swallowed by the darkness outside the door. It quickly fell into a ball of shadow, seemingly real and illusory, as if it no longer existed.
PEI Ling immediately felt an extremely strong feeling of being watched, surging from all directions and surrounding him.
He quickly looked at the black-robed man behind the counter and urged, " "Four bowls of soul wine, quick!"
The black-robed man nodded slightly and bent down. There was a slight sound of pottery hitting each other on the counter. Then, a hand picked up a wine spoon.
The sound of footsteps could be heard as the black-robed man walked towards the large jar of wine.
At this moment, the darkness continued to descend like a confident Hunter that was approaching unhurriedly.
The cultivators in the surroundings, from far to near, all fell into darkness and disappeared.
However, that incomparably strong feeling of being spied on became stronger and stronger, and more and more obvious.
The threat of death was like a dagger on his back, and PEI Ling's instincts kept shouting.
PEI Ling frowned. &Quot; ta, ta, ta ... &Quot; the sound of footsteps approached. It was the black-robed man who had just finished four bowls of soul wine and was currently bringing it over to him.
Without waiting for the wine to be served to the table in front of him, PEI Ling asked directly, " "How are the laws here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the darkness suddenly leaped and swallowed the black-robed man whole. Even su Xirou, Meng Hongling, and Huan yunzhen could only barely make out a blurry outline.
PEI Ling's brows furrowed. He had a strong premonition that once the relay station fell into complete darkness, he would instantly fall into an extremely dangerous and hopeless situation!
At this moment, a withered palm suddenly reached out from the darkness.
Behind the palm was a black robe like the night.
The black-robed man was holding four bowls of wine. His figure had completely merged with the darkness, and nothing could be seen clearly.
"Bada."
The four bowls of soul wine were placed in front of the four newcomers. The black-robed man's obscure and hoarse voice also came from the darkness, " "The laws of this place ... Knock ... Hear ... You can't ... Stay for half a month ..."
The black-robed man was clearly standing by the table, but his voice seemed to come from an extremely distant place. It was intermittent and unclear, and it was impossible to distinguish the specific content.
He could barely make out that the time limit for the ninth stop was half a month.
According to the rules of the relay, one must stay for half a month before leaving ...
As for the other rules, he knew nothing about them.
PEI Ling did not have time to waste. He picked up the soul wine and drank it in one gulp.
Before he put down the bowl, su Xirou, Meng Hongling, and Huan yunzhen were also completely swallowed by the darkness, leaving behind empty tables and chairs.
For a moment, the entire Hall fell into darkness, and PEI Ling could no longer see anyone in the hall!
Different from the [ fog of the underworld ] in the eternal night desert, the darkness here didn't hinder divine sense. However, after PEI Ling released his divine sense, he realized that all the cultivators in the hall seemed to have disappeared. He could not sense anything!
"Quickly enter the room!"
&Quot; let's go! &Quot; PEI Ling said immediately. He didn't care whether su Xirou and the other two could hear him or not. He immediately got up and used the [ five ghost tisura escape ] to escape to the house behind.
It was silent in the darkness, but the feeling of being watched suddenly became stronger. An extremely cold malice and killing intent descended like a huge mountain.
It seemed that his action of leaving the hall had angered these people who were secretly spying on him.
PEI Ling had only taken a few steps when a cold voice suddenly entered his ears."Freeze!"
PEI Ling's figure instantly stopped, his entire body unable to move at all.
In an instant, a strong throbbing suddenly surged in his heart. It was as if a violent storm of spells and divine arts had arrived and were crashing down on his head.
However, PEI Ling's divine telekinesis could not detect any abnormalities.
At this critical moment, his aura suddenly changed drastically, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes. Countless runes interwove and rose from the depths of his pupils. [ vengeful vengeful vengeful spirit divine Art ]!
[ curse of everlasting hatred ]!
Instantly, hatred, hatred, greed ... All kinds of emotions gathered like a stormy sea.
PEI Ling's cultivation had already broken through to the Return To Void final stage, and after casting the [ curse of everlasting hatred ], his strength instantly rose from the initial Return To Void final stage to the pinnacle of the Return To Void final stage.
Just as his cultivation level was about to stop rising, his aura suddenly changed again. He instantly broke through the barrier between the Return To Void stage and the Dao integration stage and charged into the Dao integration stage!
