Chapter 131 Experiment Subject No. 1 is freed, Lin Xiaoya obtains the lock seal.
The base of the White Pagoda.
Inside the sealed well.
Lin Yuan held onto the fragment of a King-level gate bone with one hand.
The Extreme Star Furnace spun wildly.
The dark gold blood energy, like chains, tightly bound that piece of black door bone, dragging out the remaining will of the sect master little by little.
The giant, dark blue eye trembled violently.
It was originally high above, looking down on reality as if through countless doors.
But at this moment, that wisp of will was forcibly pressed into the sealing well by Lin Yuan, unable to retreat, unable to disperse, and unable to continue clearing the way through Lin Xiaoya's dream.
Because that road has been locked.
Lin Xiaoya locked it.
Lin Yuan, however, seized it.
The sect leader's voice was deep and resonant, like the depths of an abyss:
"The Gate Swallower".
You'll regret it.
Lin Yuan's eyes remained calm.
"You already said that."
He tightened his grip again.
Click.
Another deep crack appeared on the surface of the fragment of the king-level gate bone.
A large amount of dark blue residual energy surged out, like a raging tide, and rebounded towards Lin Yuan's palm.
However, after the initial formation of the Ultimate Star Body, his physical body's ability to bear weight was completely different.
Deep within the bones, silver-white star patterns lit up one by one.
The violent remnants of the gate bones, as soon as they entered the body, were carried by the layers of star patterns and dragged into the Extreme Dao Star Furnace.
Remove contaminants.
Crushing will.
It is pressed into the blood and qi.
System prompts kept appearing.
[Currently absorbing and refining fragments of a King-level sect bone]
[Currently absorbing and refining the remnants of the sect leader's will]
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 726000]
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 728000]
Lin Yuan sensed the changes in the Qi and blood within his body.
After 700,000 iterations, the improvement rate did indeed slow down considerably.
Even a fragment of a King-level sect bone couldn't make him increase his strength tens of thousands of times in one go like before.
But this is not important.
What's truly important is that the Extreme Star Body is becoming more stable.
With each wisp of residual energy from the gate bone that is swallowed, the star patterns deep within the bones deepen one bit.
With each crushing of a bit of the sect leader's will, the Extreme Dao Star Furnace becomes more efficient at absorbing and refining the power behind the sect.
He is getting used to the door.
It's also in the Swallow Gate.
The giant blue eye finally began to retreat.
That wisp of the sect leader's will no longer attempt to forcefully descend.
It wanted to break free of the bone fragments.
But how could Lin Yuan let it go?
"If you're here, stay."
Lin Yuan raised his hand.
The extreme forbidden domain was completely suppressed.
The entire sealed well looked as if it were submerged in a dark golden deep sea.
The shadowy doors surrounding the giant blue eye collapsed one by one.
The whispers that came from the depths of the myriad gates were also weakened by the extreme qi.
"Returning to the gate..."
"Returning to the gate..."
"Return..."
The sound stopped abruptly.
Lin Yuan tightened his grip on his palm.
boom!
He forcibly tore off the last layer of eerie blue light traces within the fragment of the door bone.
The sect leader's last vestige of will finally gave way.
The giant, dark blue eye began to shatter.
Cracks spread from deep within the pupil, gradually covering the entire eye.
The sect leader's voice rang out for the last time in the sealed well.
"The Gate Swallower".
"Those who are pure in their ways."
"I'll remember you."
Lin Yuan looked up.
"Remember this clearly."
"The real body will come next time."
"Bring enough."
boom--!
The Extreme Dao Star Furnace trembled violently.
The giant, dark blue eye shattered completely.
All remaining will was dragged into the depths of the Star Furnace by the dark gold blood.
Inside the sealed well, the eerie blue light suddenly dimmed by more than half.
A system notification appears.
[The sect leader has completed the absorption and refinement of the first wisp of his will.]
[The contamination layer on the fragments of the King-level bone has been completely removed]
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 730000]
Lin Yuan slowly released his grip.
Beneath his palm, the fragment of the King-level sect bone had already shattered into pieces.
The remaining portion no longer emits strong pollution.
Only a small piece of black bone remained, with a few dark blue cracks still on its surface, but it was much quieter now.
Lin Yuan put it away.
We haven't finished eating this yet.
We can keep it to further extract the remaining energy later.
More importantly, this fragment of the sect bone contains remnants of the rules governing a sect at the King level, which may be useful for studying the sect master's true form in the future.
The sealed well began to collapse.
The white ring-shaped runes extinguished one by one.
The old chains that had bound Subject One for twenty years broke completely at this moment.
slam-la-
The chains fell.
It turned into white light spots.
Beside the well wall, the afterimage of Experiment Subject No. 1 stood there, stunned.
She looked down at her hands.
The body, which was originally so transparent that it was almost invisible, is now clearer.
It's not a resurrection.
Instead, once the restraints were loosened, the remaining consciousness was finally no longer repeatedly devoured by the door bones.
She looked up at Lin Yuan, her eyes filled with confusion, but also a belated sense of relief.
"It...is gone?"
Lin Yuan said calmly:
"That wisp of will is gone."
"There's still a little bit of the door bone left."
Subject One remained silent for a moment.
Then he chuckled softly.
"I see."
She looked up at the sealed well.
Twenty years have passed.
For the first time, she couldn't feel that eye looking at her.
For the first time, I couldn't hear the whispers from inside the door.
For the first time, there's no need to hide in a dream to repeatedly remind those who come after not to wear rings.
This silence felt so unfamiliar that she felt somewhat at a loss.
Lin Yuan glanced at her.
"How much longer can you hold on?"
Subject One shook his head.
"have no idea."
"But it won't be long."
Her tone was calm.
It even carried a hint of relaxation.
"I was just a fleeting shadow."
"It's only been through the cracks in the door and in the dream that it's been dragged out until now."
"Now that you've devoured most of the sect's bones and the sect leader's will has dissipated, I should leave."
Lin Yuan remained silent.
Subject Number One looked at him and suddenly said:
"I want to see her one last time."
Lin Yuan knew who she was talking about.
Lin Xiaoya.
He did not stop it.
With a mere gesture, a wisp of dark golden blood energy fell into the dream anchor mark.
"Go."
……
Deep within the dream.
Lin Xiaoya was still standing in front of that black door.
The door was already partially closed.
The giant, eerie blue eye behind the door disappeared.
The chill in the air wasn't as intense as before.
But Lin Xiaoya still stood there nervously, her small hand pressed against the white lock mark on her forehead, as if afraid that if she let go, that eye would come back.
Until a soft voice came from behind.
"Xiaoya."
Lin Xiaoya turned around.
Subject One stood behind her.
This time, her figure was clearer than before.
It is also softer.
Unlike before, I no longer carry the fear of being chased by the door.
Lin Xiaoya's eyes lit up.
"elder sister!"
She ran over and tried to hug him.
But the arm still passed through that afterimage.
She paused for a moment, and her eyes immediately welled up with tears.
"Sister, are you leaving?"
Subject Number One squatted down and looked at her at eye level.
"Um."
Lin Xiaoya bit her lip.
"Can't we stay?"
Subject One gently shook his head.
"I've stayed too long."
"Twenty years."
"I keep having the same dream."
"Now, I can finally wake up."
Lin Xiaoya didn't quite understand.
But she could sense that this older sister wasn't going to any bad place.
She was finally free from being trapped.
Subject number one raised his hand.
This time, her fingertips actually touched the white lock mark on Lin Xiaoya's forehead.
A sliver of white light appeared from her fingertips.
"I have nothing to give you."
"Only a little bit of the experience of the Pure Gate Master remains."
"How do you listen to the door?"
How to tell the difference between a door seam and a crack?
"How can I avoid being fooled by the voices behind the door in my dreams?"
"besides……"
Her voice softened.
"How do I close the door?"
The white light gradually seeped into Lin Xiaoya's forehead.
The white lock pattern, which was initially very faint, gradually became clearer.
It is not an attack mark.
It's not a talisman either.
It's more like a quiet lock.
The crimson lotus fire pattern burned gently nearby.
The white lock is quietly embedded in the depths of the dream.
Ichigo.
One lock.
The two forces are not in conflict.
Instead, they lived in peace with each other.
As Subject Number One watched this scene, a hint of relief appeared in his eyes.
"remember."
"You are not a test subject for the White Tower."
"This is not the path for the sect leader."
"It is not a tool for anyone to sacrifice."
Lin Xiaoya nodded vigorously.
"I am a lock."
Subject number one laughed.
"right."
"You are the lock."
"But you're not just a lock."
"You are still your brother's sister."
"Xiaoya is someone who is afraid, cries, but also bravely refuses to leave."
Lin Xiaoya's tears finally fell.
"elder sister……"
Subject Number One couldn't wipe away her tears.
I can only say it softly:
"Don't cry."
"You've already done better than me."
"I couldn't close that eye back then."
"You shut it down."
Lin Xiaoya shook her head.
"It was my brother who helped me."
Subject One chuckled softly:
"Um."
"So you're luckier than me."
You have an older brother.
Her body began to scatter into white specks of light.
Little by little, from the fingers, to the hem of the clothes, to the ends of the hair.
Lin Xiaoya was so anxious that she wanted to grab it.
But you can't grasp anything.
Subject One looked at her one last time, his voice very soft:
"If you hear the door again..."
"Don't be afraid."
"Ask yourself a question first."
"So, do you want me to open the door, or do you want me to close it?"
"If it asks you to drive it."
"Just refuse."
"If it's trying to lie to you."
"I just remember your brother would break it."
Lin Xiaoya nodded vigorously, tears welling in her eyes.
"Um."
The figure of Experiment Subject No. 1 is fading further and further away.
Finally, she looked in a certain direction outside the dream world and seemed to see Lin Yuan in the sealed well.
She said softly:
"Thanks."
Thank you.
White light spread out.
In the dream, the white corridor that once led to the White Tower completely collapsed.
The black gate slowly disappeared into the distance.
The white lock pattern on Lin Xiaoya's forehead shone quietly.
She stood in her dream, for the first time not being chased by the door.
For the first time, I didn't hear the voice of the man in the white robe.
For the first time, I felt that I might not only be protected by my brother.
She can also do some things.
Even if it's just closing the door a crack.
……
Inside the sealed well.
The afterimage of Experiment Subject No. 1 was also gradually fading away.
Lin Yuan looked at her.
She bowed slightly to Lin Yuan.
"Thank you."
Lin Yuan said calmly:
"Thank her."
Subject number one was taken aback.
Lin Yuandao:
"It's because she didn't agree to the sect leader's request."
Subject number one was stunned for a moment.
Then he laughed.
This time, the laughter was finally free of bitterness.
"Um."
"She is very brave."
White light spots scattered from her body.
The lingering image, trapped at the bottom of the White Tower for twenty years, has finally vanished completely.
Inside the sealed well, the last old ring chain broke.
Rumbling--
The entire sealed well began to collapse.
Lin Yuan raised his hand and put away the remaining small fragment of the door bone.
Then he took a step forward.
Dark gold energy protects the entire body.
The collapsed well walls, the fallen white stones, and the extinguished runes could not get any closer to him.
A system notification appears.
[A lock mark from someone who cleaned the door was detected]
[Can coexist with the host's ultimate qi and blood protective seal]
[Door Lock Effect: Briefly blocks dream anchor points, peeping from behind doors, and low-level door gap pulls.]
Lin Yuan's gaze shifted slightly.
Lin Xiaoya wasn't simply rescued this time.
She gained the ability that belonged to her.
This is good.
If the sect leader wants to pave the way through her dreams again, it won't be so easy.
However, this also means that the sect leader will want her more.
Lin Yuan's eyes remained calm.
want to?
Then let's go.
He eats as much as is brought to him.
……
The outer layer of the White Pagoda.
The pale blue beam of light began to shrink.
The aura that had been soaring into the sky behind the door seemed to have been severed at its root.
The Elders Council, the Zhenxing Army, and all four major families witnessed this scene.
"The beam of light is weakening!"
"Is something underneath trapped?"
"Was it made by the Blood-Faced Ancient Cultivator?"
no one knows.
Because Blood Shadow remained standing in front of the crack in the White Tower and did not go down.
But the crisis at the bottom of the White Tower is indeed disappearing.
As Zhenxinghou watched the shrinking, dark blue pillar of light, his gaze grew increasingly profound.
It's not a blood shadow.
He was certain.
The blood-red figure standing outside the crack did not enter the lower level.
The one who truly held back the will behind the door was below.
Gu Changye stood on the top floor of the Black Tower and slowly closed his notebook.
He whispered:
"The sect leader vanished in an instant."
The subordinates were shocked:
"Sir, you mean...?"
Gu Changye looked at the white pagoda.
"It was swallowed up."
"Or rather, he was eaten by Lin Yuan."
The subordinate felt a chill run down his spine.
Blood Shadow just killed Qin Xuanxiao.
Now, Gu Changye says that the real Lin Yuan swallowed the sect leader's thought from below.
These two things together are beyond his comprehension.
Gu Changye smiled.
His laughter was low and excited.
"The White Tower bloodbath is over."
"But the sky over Longyuan City."
"That's when things really need to change."
