"It's the Disha Soul Capturing Array!"

"It's actually the Disha Soul Capturing Array!"

"Gu Xiu actually set up such a vicious array within the sect!"

Qin Moran, being a Talisman Master, naturally had deep knowledge of arrays. Even though she only saw the tip of the iceberg, she immediately guessed the array's identity.

Her face was full of shock.

Lu Qingyao curiously asked, "Fifth Senior Sister, what is the Disha Soul Capturing Array?"

"It's an evil array!"

"Evil array?"

"Yes, it's an extremely malicious evil array!" Qin Moran said gravely, "The so-called Disha Soul Capturing Array is a formation commonly used by the demon sects."

The mention of the demon sects made Lu Qingyao feel uneasy.

Sure enough.

Qin Moran continued, "As the name suggests, the Disha Soul Capturing Array is an evil formation set at the Disha position to capture souls and send them away."

"This array is extremely malicious. Any wandering souls in the area will be immediately absorbed into the array and refined into nourishment to sustain itself!"

What?

Lu Qingyao was shocked. "Why would Gu Xiu know such an array, and why would he set it up within the sect?"

"He probably refuses to accept being a cripple in this life and wants to cultivate!" Qin Moran's expression was as dark as water.

"Our disciples of Qingxuan Holy Land actually learned the arrays of the demon sects!" Lu Qingyao was immediately indignant.

"And this is the sect! Does he want to capture the souls of our sect's disciples and use them as his nourishment?"

Qin Moran did not answer.

She only looked at Nian Chaoxi. "Senior Sister, if there was no evidence before, this array should reveal Gu Xiu's true nature, right?"

There was no need to say more.

Setting up such a malicious array within the sect made it hard not to question its purpose.

Faced with Qin Moran's words, Nian Chaoxi frowned deeply, silent for a moment.

Her intuition told her.

This couldn't have been set up by Gu Xiu; he couldn't possibly harm the sect!

But...

What about this array?

Especially when she thought of the spirit stone powder she saw in that cave.

Gu Xiu might have already restored his cultivation.

Why did Guan Xuelan say before that Gu Xiu had no chance to restore his cultivation, yet he suddenly did?

And this array just happened to be here?

Could it be...

Did he really use some demonic cultivation method?

"I don't believe Gu Xiu would do such a thing!" Nian Chaoxi finally said.

Although she hadn't interacted much with Gu Xiu before, she always had a good impression of this Little Junior Brother.

Moreover.

She had asked for divinations about Gu Xiu more than once. Although she couldn't be sure about other things, Gu Xiu's fate had always been about respecting teachers and valuing the path. She didn't believe someone with such a fate would do this in the sect.

This...

Seeing Nian Chaoxi's determined look, Qin Moran and Lu Qingyao felt a bit helpless.

"Senior Sister, this array already explains everything."

"Yes, Senior Sister, we know what kind of person Gu Xiu is."

"This is just a part of the array. Can you really say you can see the whole picture?" Nian Chaoxi asked Qin Moran.

Qin Moran hesitated. "This..."

"I know a little about arrays too. Many arrays have similarities. Isn't it rash to judge the whole array from just a part?" Nian Chaoxi said.

This time, Qin Moran couldn't refute because what Senior Sister said was indeed true.

But...

Is there really a need to look?

Even though it's just the tip of the iceberg, it's clear that this array is related to the seven souls and six spirits. Placing such an array here...

No matter how you look at it, it's suspicious.

Nian Chaoxi understood this reasoning, but she still stubbornly said, "Since the array has been revealed, why don't we take a closer look?"

Saying this, Nian Chaoxi moved to the remains of the wooden house, slowly collecting the debris into her Storage Ring.

As if she intended to uncover the entire array.

Qin and Lu exchanged glances, feeling a bit helpless.

This Senior Sister...

Why is she so stubborn?

It's all Gu Xiu's fault!

His acting must have been too good, even fooling Senior Sister!

They thought to themselves, but they couldn't really let Nian Chaoxi do all the work alone, so they joined in clearing the wooden house ruins.

Actually, according to their thoughts, just burning it all would suffice; there was no need to painstakingly clean it up.

But Nian Chaoxi wouldn't allow it, so they had to follow her lead, collecting every piece of debris into their Storage Rings.

In the process.

They discovered quite a few things.

"I knew it, my Talisman Book was missing because Gu Xiu stole it!" Qin Moran said with a furrowed brow.

Lu Qingyao, equally indignant, said, "Senior Sister, look, isn't this the horn of my dead spirit beast? He even denied having anything to do with it back then!"

Both of them found some items.

Even some related to other Senior Sisters, making them increasingly furious.

Listening to their inventory, Nian Chaoxi felt more and more unable to accept it.

Little Junior Brother Gu wouldn't do such things!

He couldn't possibly be like this!

Gritting her teeth, Nian Chaoxi couldn't refute and could only push aside these chaotic thoughts, no longer bothering to sort things slowly.

In one go.

She collected all the wooden house debris in front of her.

And as she collected, the array gradually became more complete.

When three-tenths of the array plate appeared, Qin Moran shook her head:

"Senior Sister, I don't think we need to look any further. This array is clearly the Soul Capturing Array, a complete Soul Capturing Array."

"I don't believe it!"

Nian Chaoxi replied and continued organizing.

Before long, when six-tenths of the array plate appeared, Qin Moran spoke again:

"Senior Sister, this is the Disha Soul Capturing Array. This part not only captures souls but also transforms them. Any soul captured by this array will become nourishment!"

Nian Chaoxi was uncertain, but she still gritted her teeth: "I don't believe it!"

But when nine-tenths of the array appeared, Nian Chaoxi's heart.

Had completely sunk to the bottom.

"Senior Sister, this part gradually transforms the refined souls into nourishment."

"The person who set up the array even maximized its effect, leaving the souls used as nourishment with no chance of reincarnation."

"Junior Sister thinks there's no need to continue cleaning up. Such an evil array should be destroyed."

Qin Moran said.

Beside her, Lu Qingyao had already started cursing harshly:

"This Gu Xiu, so vicious!"

"We took care of him with good food and drink, the sect spent resources on a cripple like him, and he wasn't grateful, but did such things!"

"This is the sect, setting up such an array here is clearly meant to harm people!"

"Such a person deserves to die!"

"…"

These words made Nian Chaoxi's face turn pale, wanting to defend Gu Xiu but not knowing how to.

Looking at the remaining part of the array, Nian Chaoxi gritted her teeth: "I still don't believe it, let's see it through!"

These words made Qin Moran and Lu Qingyao shake their heads.

However, they didn't persuade further.

The truth might be harsh, but it's better for Senior Sister to see Gu Xiu's true nature.

But...

When all the wooden house debris was collected and the entire array appeared, Nian Chaoxi suddenly cried out.

"Senior Sister, don't be sad, it's not worth it for someone like Gu Xiu!"

Lu Qingyao hurriedly comforted her.

Her dislike for Gu Xiu grew even stronger.

If not for him.

How could Senior Sister be so heartbroken?

"It's not..."

"Gu Xiu never intended to harm anyone!"

"He always had the sect in his heart, always had the sect, I knew it, he had the sect in his heart!"

Nian Chaoxi shook her head repeatedly.

As she spoke, she couldn't help but cry again, her heart-wrenching sobs leaving Lu Qingyao bewildered.

After all this, why doesn't Senior Sister believe it?

What kind of spell did Gu Xiu cast on her?

But at this moment, Qin Moran's incredulous voice reached their ears:

"How is this possible?"

"How can this be?"

"It's clearly the Disha Gathering Spirit Array, why... why can it change?"

"This..."

"Is it fake?"

Lu Qingyao was confused, turning to see Qin Moran staring at the array plate in disbelief.

Change?

What does that mean?

Wasn't this the Disha Soul Capturing Array? What did it change into?

Just as she was about to ask, she saw Nian Chaoxi, with reddened eyes, asking, "Junior Sister Qin, can you tell what this array is now?"

"This..." Qin Moran looked at the array, then at Nian Chaoxi, and finally said in a low voice:

"This is the Disperse Power and Transform Soul Array..."

Disperse Power and Transform Soul Array?

Lu Qingyao was puzzled, not understanding what this array was.

But then Nian Chaoxi said:

"Disperse my power, transform my soul, only for..."

"The blessing of one place!"

"This is not the Disha Soul Capturing Array, this is not an evil array!"

"This is an array where one willingly sacrifices themselves, turning their soul into a part of the sect after death, to extend the sect's blessings!"

"Those soul-capturing, soul-refining arrays!"

"Gu Xiu targeted himself!"

"He intended to capture his own soul after death, to transform it."

"At the cost of not entering reincarnation after death, of having his soul scattered!"

"To sacrifice his soul for the path, to pray for the sect's blessings!"

After saying this, Nian Chaoxi couldn't hold back any longer and began to weep again.

Even Lu Qingyao was stunned, incredulous.

Wha...

What???

This malicious array targeted...

Was all aimed at Gu Xiu himself?

This...

How is it possible???

How could someone like him have such awareness???
