Chapter 251: I Am a Genius, Right?
And in these days, the Dongting (Lake/Cave) was not peaceful either. It’s just that the unrest near Trapped Sky Mountain was a surging tide, while in the Dongting, a hidden undercurrent was flowing.
First, the Taoist priests near Weicheng became busy. But they weren't busy dealing with the Dongting Restriction (Formation/Barrier); instead, they were busy setting up checkpoints. The checkpoints of the Taoist priests were different from the tollgates of the secular government. The government’s checkpoints were set on the roads, only prohibiting ground traffic. The Taoist priests' checkpoints, however, were set in the sky—all passage, whether sky or ground, was prohibited. Just like when the Taoist priest in Weicheng painted the sun in the sky, numerous cultivators who had reached the Manifestation Realm and could fly through the air soared up, writing down all sorts of peculiar talismans.
These talismans bore the distinct personal characteristics of each cultivator, yet they could also cooperate with each other. Thus, a massive, three-dimensional Restriction covering the entire space appeared. But though this Restriction was large, it was far from comparable to the Dongting Restriction. Even a secular person affected by the power of this Restriction would only feel slightly chest-tight.
Because this Restriction was not originally meant to restrict people’s actions.
It was for finding a wandering Spiritual Soul (Ghost/Wandering Soul).
Linliang Zi and the former Fei Yunzi had killed Kun Wuzi. But a cultivator of the Great Accomplishment Profound Realm naturally possesses some terrifying methods. Even with the Life-Death Tiangang Great Array, using the power of a hundred thousand vengeful Spiritual Souls to instantly annihilate the unsuspecting Kun Wuzi... it seemed a trace of his Spiritual Soul still remained.
Naturally, this remnant Spiritual Soul could not be allowed to escape.
This Restriction could not forbid people, but it could be used to detect a remnant Spiritual Soul. "Kun Wuzi" wanted to get rid of the potential trouble as quickly as possible to prevent future complications.
But who knew this Restriction became... a search that lasted for several days, with no results.
