Chapter 324

~7 min read 1,256 words

They were so afraid of Nangong Tong Yuan that they naturally wouldn't wait for the formation to weaken over time and for Nangong Tong Yuan to escape and take revenge on them.

This was a polluting formation.

They had refined everyone in this tribe into strange, evil entities.

And these evil entities possessed a polluting nature, which would gradually assimilate normal people who entered and were trapped here into such strange, evil entities as well.

Once the Northern Pasture Saintess Nangong Tong Yuan was assimilated into an evil entity,

even if she returned to the Northern Pasture Royal Court, she would no longer be the Saintess of the Royal Court, but a monster that the Royal Court needed to exterminate.

At that time, they could use the power of the entire Royal Court to kill Nangong Tong Yuan.

Regardless of whether Nangong Tong Yuan had any grievances, as long as she became a strange, evil entity, she would inevitably be killed.

It must be said that this plan was both vicious and clever.

But the premise was that no one could come to this tribe and rescue Nangong Tong Yuan.

However, this possibility was extremely slim.

The Pudamiya Grassland itself was a very remote place.

People wouldn't easily enter here.

Even if someone did enter, no one would be able to find this tiny tribe.

After all, this tribe had only a few hundred people in total; the scale was too small.

True powerhouses wouldn't stop at such a tribe.

If they were weak, even if they came, what use would it be? They would just be trapped here as well.

But Nangong Tong Yuan was, after all, a genius of her generation, a super genius with overly extraordinary talent.

Her excellence was not only reflected in her talent for cultivation.

She naturally would not allow the strange, evil entities here to assimilate her into such a creature.

To prevent herself from being assimilated into such an evil entity, Nangong Tong Yuan forcibly split her soul into two parts.

One part, the main soul that controlled everything, slept in the deepest, most hidden part of her consciousness.

No person, evil entity, or pollution could reach it.

And the other part was manifested on the surface.

Using her body, which possessed powerful strength sufficient to destroy the heavens and the earth, she lived a peaceful and ignorant life like an ordinary person.

Even this soul manifested on the surface did not know of the powerful strength she possessed.

That kind girl Sister Yuanyuan was, from beginning to end, a sacrificial lamb who knew nothing.

And the hidden main soul had been sleeping, waiting for the right moment.

This moment could be after a long period of time when the formation gradually weakened, giving her the chance to break out of the trap.

It could also be the moment when an outsider came here and broke the peace of this place.

One must know that for any human, the soul is the essence.

Especially for a powerhouse like Nangong Tong Yuan.

As long as her soul was not polluted,

then even if her body had been polluted by evil entities, she could use her powerful strength to purge this pollution and return to normal.

This was the reason Nangong Tong Yuan chose this method to protect herself.

And now, Qin Feng was her variable.

"Strange. When I met Sister Yuanyuan, it was an hour's journey away from the tribe."

"If you cannot leave this place, how can you go so far away to graze?"

"Also, what about your Tibetan Mastiff? I feel that it is not an evil entity?"

"Since you know everything, why did you put the Tibetan Mastiff outside?"

"The dark night outside should be filled with countless dangers, right?"

Although Nangong Tong Yuan had already given a very, very detailed explanation,

there were still a few places Qin Feng found very strange.

"That is not a Tibetan Mastiff; it is a creature I materialized using my own power after discovering the problem upon entering here, used to protect myself."

"But that was also the last bit of power I could use here."

"If I use power here again, my power will be further polluted by the pollutants here, accelerating my pollution process."

"As for letting it stay outside, it is to monitor what happens outside."

"Don't worry, it was created by me; it is not so easily erased."

Seeing that Qin Feng was not concerned about her own safety at the moment, but instead cared about the safety of an animal that looked like a Tibetan Mastiff,

Nangong Tong Yuan couldn't help but laugh.

Although she had been betrayed by her former companions, trapped here, suffering pain at every moment, and possibly even facing death,

she still preferred to see beautiful things and did not resent everything because of this.

Seeing Qin Feng's reaction, her impression of him became even better.

"As for why I can go so far away, it is because it is not me who goes there, but Sister Yuanyuan."

"Because Sister Yuanyuan will definitely return to this tribe, so it does not count as leaving."

"What do you think a formation is? A rigid thing stamped on the ground, used to trap people inside so they can't take a single step out?"

"It is not that simple. Truly powerful formations have their own wisdom and judgment; we cannot even simply think of them as a formation."

"Sometimes, I prefer to call it a biological entity."

"But if I call it a biological entity, it lacks the emotions and cognition that a living being should have. So sometimes, I don't want to think of it as a type of biological entity."

Isn't this just artificial intelligence?!

Good heavens, this real world was truly awesome; even a formation could develop intelligence.

Qin Feng was simply dumbfounded.

Here, power could be materialized into something that looked no different from a real creature.

A formation could possess its own wisdom and judgment.

It didn't matter if the body was polluted; as long as the soul was not polluted, the pollution could be purged.

Even a person's soul could be split, and a part of it discarded.

The power of combat here, although Qin Feng hadn't seen it from beginning to end,

he didn't know how it compared to the power in games that could destroy the heavens and earth, travel through the stars, and destroy a planet with a wave of a hand.

But the various special powers here, in Qin Feng's view, were more desirable than those powers that could destroy stars with a wave of a hand.

Qin Feng even felt that the difficulty of possessing these powers here was far higher than that of destructive power.

After all, Qin Feng had always recognized that the soul was the foundation of a person.

Wasn't his immortality in the game exactly that?

As long as the soul was not extinguished, as long as there was still a drop of blood, he could be reborn with the help of that drop of blood.

Didn't this also prove that for a powerhouse, the body was not important; what was important was the soul.

"Very well, then now, shouldn't we discuss what we should do?"

"You want to escape from here, and I also want to leave here. But I know almost nothing about this place."

"I believe that so much time has passed, you must have a way to leave here. At least have some clues."
