On the side, Xiao Shou once again felt that being spied on.

He frowned and looked at Monk Tongchan, while once again using his bloodline ability to form a defensive barrier of law nullification, trying to protect himself and his master from unknown observation.

But this time, it was not so smooth.

Just as he formed the invisible barrier, Monk Tongchan was faster.

He condensed his divine sense into a large shield that blocked it.

During this, because of Monk Tongchan’s question, Xiao Shou’s emotions fluctuated.

He could not help but wonder why this strange monk was asking about his origins again.

Strictly speaking, his true "home" should be Earth from his previous life.

But this body belonged to the child of the Duke Zhenguo of the Great Liang Kingdom.

The original owner had been switched at birth by the Duke’s secondary wife and raised in a village.

So where did he actually belong? Earth? The Great Liang Kingdom? That village?

While he was thinking this, he suddenly saw a dark-colored shield forming in front of him, blocking his path.

Confused, he asked, "What is going on?"

After receiving no real answer, and recalling Xiao Shou’s earlier thoughts about recovering lost fragments of the original soul, Monk Tongchan seemed to come to a realization.

He withdrew his eye ability and smiled harmlessly.

"Nothing. This monk was just testing what changes occur after the qualitative transformation of divine sense. It seems it has turned dark in color."

"Oh? Interesting, I will try too."

Completely unaware that Fu Young on the side was already fuming and glaring at Monk Tongchan for misleading his Master again, Xiao Shou happily released his divine sense.

He condensed it into the shape of a chair.

Indeed, his divine sense construct was also black, but it was a pure black.

He found it strange.

"Mine is also black. How interesting. It even feels somewhat similar to your shield. Could it be that everyone’s divine sense manifestation ends up similar in color and aura? Young’er, show me yours. Is it the same?"

Fu Young noticed Monk Tongchan staring at Xiao Shou’s manifested chair in deep thought as if realizing something.

He frowned and carefully sensed both the shield and Xiao Shou’s chair.

After understanding it, he was stunned.

Thinking of what Yu Lin had once said, he could not help but break into a cold sweat as he glancing at Monk Tongchan with a complicated expression.

Obediently, he condensed his divine sense into a large blade.

Then all three of them saw it.

The blade was blood red, radiating a terrifying aura of destruction.

The oppressive feeling was so intense that Xiao Shou was startled.

Seeing that he had frightened his Master, Fu Young quickly dispersed the blade and smiled ingratiatingly. "Master, don’t be fooled by its appearance. Even though the color is not pleasant and the aura is a bit intimidating, in reality..."

"What nonsense are you talking about! Such a beautiful color! It’s like a ruby, and its aura is so powerful it’s awe-inspiring. Unlike mine and the master’s, which are unlucky black and nothing but heavy and dull in aura! Ah! I want ruby colored divine sense too~~~!"

Before Fu Young could finish speaking, Xiao Shou was already staring at his disciple with envy and jealousy.

Fu Young sighed helplessly, but did not notice that his gaze at this moment was as gentle as moonlight, completely enveloping Xiao Shou.

On the side, Monk Tongchan was force-fed a mouthful of "dog food" and nearly had his eyes blinded.

Thinking about the possible relationship between himself and Xiao Shou, he glared at Fu Young unhappily and said, "Stop fooling around. The exit is right in front of us. How do we proceed next?"

"Huh? Why is there only one path this time?" Xiao Shou noticed it and immediately remembered the situation at the junction.

He focused his attention and looked carefully, only to find that there was indeed only a single path ahead.

Having been glared at by Monk Tongchan, and recalling earlier speculations, Fu Young did not dare to retaliate this time.

He could only awkwardly turn his head and observe the surroundings.

After a moment, he said, "Probably because besides us, a new visitor has arrived. And this person likely does not use spiritual energy, but has extremely strong destructive power that can damage large areas or even directly destroy them."

"Does not use spiritual energy but still has strong destructive power? Could it be a demonic beast?"

It was not strange for Xiao Shou to think this way.

Demonic beasts had notoriously abnormal physical strength.

As for soul-based destructive power, it was generally far weaker than spiritual energy when it came to large-scale attacks.

After thinking for a moment, he asked in confusion, "How did you come to that conclusion, Young’er?"

"Of course from deduction. Master does not understand formations, so I will not explain the principles in detail. In short, this place originally has sixty-four checkpoints, but in reality, only thirty-two need to be cleared to pass."

"This formation also contains yin-yang principles. Every two paths represent one yin and one yang, one defensive and one offensive."

Fu Young showed a somewhat displeased expression.

"Originally, according to my calculations, we could clear all sixty-four checkpoints and reach the end. There might even be a inheritance related to the path of the soul. However, that unknown intruder destroyed the checkpoint linked to this one."

"In other words, it was obliterated. That is why only this single path remains. What an annoying person."

"If only this one checkpoint was destroyed, it would still be manageable. But if that person continues destroying the formations, and both yin and yang paths are affected at the same time, the consequences would be very troublesome."

Monk Tongchan, who understood formations better than Xiao Shou, nodded slightly after hearing this.

His brows immediately furrowed as he considered the possibility.

Seeing that Xiao Shou still looked confused, Fu Young no longer bothered to explain further. He grabbed his hand and started walking forward.
