Chapter 43 Obsession
That person was the master of the restricted area. This was the scene of the dam world he had once entered!

His white clothes were whiter than snow, spotless and detached from the mundane world. He just walked forward courageously!
The white clothes fluttering in the wind, the style is peerless!
Shi Ziling was shocked. Why did this happen? A ball of light suddenly burst out from his cave, and the scene of the master of the restricted area stepping onto the dam appeared in his mind!

boom!
As the Lord of the Forbidden Zone took steps, the picture began to shake, as if time was passing and years were changing.

And there was a violent sound behind the dam, like the roar of terrifying waves, or like the strongest creatures were fighting. It was extremely terrifying.

Time flows, years pass, fragments of time fly, and I don’t know how much time has passed.

Until one day, a bloody hand was clinging to the embankment, stained with blood and badly broken, finally breaking the tranquility of the picture.

Then, the hand exerted force and struggled to climb up to cross the embankment. Soon a head appeared, and it was the face of the lord of the restricted area.

His hair was disheveled, his forehead and eye sockets were bleeding, his eyes were dim and deathly grey, and there was a crack between his eyebrows.

Moreover, his body was riddled with holes, with countless bloody holes appearing, and his battle suit was torn, scarlet and bloody, which was extremely tragic.

He staggered and swayed several times, and finally stood up with difficulty. He left the dam with difficulty.

The image spread like ripples, but soon disappeared without a trace! A ball of light condensed again, quietly suspended in front of him, and there was a faint strong vitality spreading.
Shi Ziling frowned. Why did such a sudden change happen? A ray of light suddenly burst out from his Thirteen Caves, revealing such a scene. When did such a ball of light appear in his caves? He seemed to have not noticed it at all before, as if it appeared out of thin air.

"This is a trace of my soul mark, formed by my unwilling obsession to enter the dam world. I once nurtured it in the thirteen caves of Daoist friends. I didn't expect it to grow to this point."

The Lord of the Forbidden Zone said, his eyes moving slightly, staring at the ball of light, and explained.

Shi Ziling's face moved slightly, transformed by his obsession. No wonder it was the master of the restricted area who stepped into the dam world.

But why is this mark of obsession in his own Thirteen Caves?
Besides, aren't the Thirteen Caves visible only to me? Why would the Lord of the Forbidden Zone see it?

You know, even the three old monsters in Xiling Realm had never figured it out, so how did he figure it out?
"In the past, my Taoist friend once sought me out to discuss Taoism. I sent a trace of my soul imprint to my Taoist cave to deduce the possibility of reincarnation in the world in order to seek hope for the future."

The Lord of the Forbidden Zone spoke slowly, his eyes shining brightly with astonishing fairy light surging.

Shi Ziling was silent. Although he was very likely the Immortal King of Reincarnation, he really couldn't remember anything.

From what the Lord of the Forbidden Zone said, it seemed that he had a past with the Immortal King of Samsara, and there was a cause and effect relationship between the two.

Chi!
The ball of light dispersed and turned into points of divine light, which sank into the body of the Lord of the Forbidden Zone.

The body of the Lord of the Forbidden Zone was glowing, and there was a powerful vitality flowing in his body, which made his aura suddenly much stronger.

The two Taoist boys were dumbfounded, looking at everything in front of them in disbelief.

Shi Ziling's eyes narrowed slightly. This soul mark penetrated into his body, which indeed gave the Lord of the restricted area a lot more vitality.

"Fellow Daoist, you are truly amazing!" The Lord of the Forbidden Zone was surprised. After integrating that vitality, he felt much stronger and was no longer as weak as before.

You know, he had been dead for countless years, and now only his obsession was left. But that ball of light actually made his breath stronger and gave him real vitality. How incredible this was.

Chi!
The next moment, the Lord of the Forbidden Zone pointed his finger like a sword and gently slashed his body. The ball of light was stripped away again, allowing him to reappear in the void.
Shi Ziling was a little surprised. Obviously, this ball of light could make the Lord of the Forbidden Zone more alive, so why did he want to peel it off. "The cause in the past is the result today. Please continue to nurture this soul mark for me!" The Lord of the Forbidden Zone smiled slightly. He had a vague feeling in his heart that if he continued to nurture it, he might transform again in the future.

The ball of light glowed and emitted bright waves. There was a mysterious Tao spreading, and there was actually a very powerful Tao rhyme spreading.

Afterwards, the ball of light disintegrated again, turning into a stream of light and directly sank into the thirteenth cave in Shiziling.

Oddly enough, this time after the ball of light sank in, Shi Ziling could already sense its existence.

Afterwards, Shi Ziling asked the Lord of the Forbidden Zone about him and his past.

The Lord of the Forbidden Zone told him that the former Immortal King of the Six Paths of Reincarnation once came down to the mortal world to discuss law and Taoism with him. The two of them had a very pleasant conversation, and he asked for a fragment of his soul to deduce the reincarnation of the human world.

"So that's how it is." Shi Ziling suddenly realized. No wonder the master of the restricted area said he was an old acquaintance of his.

And Shi Ziling also understood why the Lord of the Forbidden Zone could see his Thirteen Caves in the Heavens. It was because a wisp of his soul and obsession was nurtured there, so he could also sense the existence of his Thirteen Caves in the Heavens.

Then, he also asked about the Six Paths of Reincarnation Immortal King of the past, wanting to know his secrets and the mystery surrounding himself.

“When you become stronger and your strength is restored, you will definitely be able to find out the truth of the past.” said the Lord of the Forbidden Zone. He didn’t know much about the Six Paths of Reincarnation Immortal King.

According to him, the Immortal King of Six Paths of Reincarnation was too mysterious and very transcendent in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Even other Immortal Kings could not know everything about him.

Then, the two continued to drink tea and chat with each other, and mentioned the dam industry again.

"Fellow Daoist, do you have any impression of the dam world?" the Lord of the restricted area asked curiously.

"I have a little memory, but not much." Shi Ziling shook his head.

"That's right. Back then, fellow Daoist was guarding the nine heavens and ten earths, and was also studying the great way of reincarnation. How could he have the time to explore the dam world?" said the Lord of the restricted area, feeling very emotional.

"There are so many heroes buried in the dam world!" Shi Ziling also sighed softly.

"Yes, just like me. From the beginning to the end of the Immortal Ancient Era, I accepted eight brilliant disciples in total. Unfortunately, they also embarked on the same path of no return as me and died early." The Lord of the Forbidden Zone sighed lightly, looking very disappointed.

He turned his head and looked into the distance, his eyes complicated, as if he was reminiscing about something, with memories, nostalgia, and more regrets.

Finally, eight men and women appeared in the depths of his eyes, as if they were walking from different historical rivers, as if reminiscing.

Shadows appeared in front of Shi Ziling one after another and then dispersed. They were all his former disciples, the unrivaled geniuses of the past.

According to him, the several disciples he accepted were all heroes of an era, coming from different eras, including people from the beginning of the Ancient Immortal Era to the end of the Ancient Immortal Era.

They came from different races, such as the Chaos Clan, the Golden Crow Clan, and the Human Race, but most of them broke into the Dam Realm and later died.

The last person was a woman, very beautiful. A blue moon appeared behind her head, making her look otherworldly.
"She is Qingyue... Do you still remember her?" The Lord of the Forbidden Zone looked at the shadow of the last woman.
