Yun Qishen

Chapter 2172 Restriction
"Brother Mo Li, you're back."

Seeing Mo Li walking into the basement with a candle, Mo Ruo's eyes lit up. He left Yun Qishen and walked towards Mo Li.

"Yeah." Mo Li nodded slightly as he looked at Mo Ruo who was coming to meet him. Then he walked around Mo Ruo and came to Yun Qishen and asked, "How is the barrier?"

Yun Qishen gestured around him and said, "Feel it yourself. I have already gathered most of the ghost power for you. You can take further action on the rest." He paused and then asked, "Why didn't you discuss this with me in advance?"

Mo Li laughed dryly, "I originally thought that your consciousness might still be in Mo Langqin's body, so I didn't intend to discuss this matter with you. After all, I don't think my barrier can be broken so easily by the power of the immortal way."

Seeing that Mo Li was so confident, Yun Qishen didn't know what to say. He looked at his hands and said, "Mo Langqin just sent me a message. He said that he is doing fine now. By the way, he also talked about the past and future capabilities of the Ghost Beast Banquet."

“This ability of its is indeed recorded in the ancient books of the Mo family.” Mo Li replied.

"Ancient books?"

"Yes, ancient books."

Yun Qishen recalled that he had learned about part of Mo Langqin's lost memory through the instrument given by Jiayu. In that memory, there was a very powerful book, which recorded everything, comparable to a book of prophecy.

"Is this the ancient book that Mo Langqin gave you before?"

Yun Qishen's question surprised Mo Li, "Huh? How did the Demon Lord know about this? Did Mo Langqin tell you? Could it be that he remembered everything?"

Yun Qishen waved his hand, "He didn't tell me that... He seems to still be confused about his past memories. I learned about this through other forces. Mo Langqin is not aware of this."

"He doesn't know?" Mo Li took a deep breath and became alert.

"Regardless of whether he knows about this or not, where is the ancient book now?" Yun Qishen didn't want things to get stuck so he continued to ask the key points.

"I handed it in after I finished reading the ancient book."

Mo Li's answer made Yun Qishen's eyes widen immediately, "Ah, no! Didn't he tell you not to hand it in?"

"The Demon Lord is so powerful that he even knew this. I was just ignorant at that time and thought that my grandfather and my third uncle were all sincere about the Mo family. Plus, I also wanted to revive my mother, so I wanted to be a good senior brother. Handing in the ancient books was my top priority."

Mo Li didn't want to hide anything so he told the truth. Yun Qishen naturally knew that Mo Li had not hidden anything. After all, there was no need for the two of them to deceive each other.

"Then do you remember more about the Ghost Beast Banquet in the ancient books?"

Mo Li nodded and responded, "I know all this, but I can't tell you."

"Why?"

“Because of the ban.”

After Mo Li mentioned the restriction, Yun Qishen couldn't help but take a breath. His mind suddenly flashed back to the Tingcha Mountain Sect disciple who had exploded and died because of touching the restriction. "I understand now. So Mo Langqin knew a lot of things at that time but couldn't tell you, and only asked you to see it in person because of this restriction."

"That's right." Mo Li replied affirmatively, "We know some of the contents of the book but we can't find the right person to help us. We can only ask someone to read it in person."

"This is really a hassle." Yun Qishen couldn't help but complain about the rules and regulations. "But I'm also curious, what would happen if I accidentally triggered this restriction?"

"At the very least, you will lose your memory and forget everything in the book." Mo Li said very seriously, "At the worst, you will be absorbed by the ancient book and become one with it..." Before Mo Li finished speaking, he suddenly stopped. Yun Qishen caught this strange feeling and asked hurriedly, "Did you think of something?"

"Become one..." Mo Li repeated it and then stopped talking. He just looked at Yun Qishen.

"You can't tell me what happened next, right? You want me to guess?" Yun Qishen could easily guess Mo Li's intention.

Mo Li nodded, "You can make a guess, but the specific countermeasures may still require you, the Demon Lord, to find the classics and read them yourself."

Yun Qishen put his chin in his hand and analyzed, "You said it merged into one, which means that something merged with the Ghost Beast Banquet and appeared in the past and the future, and because of this fusion, it caused the collapse of various worlds."

Yun Qishen looked at Qi Qi and said nothing further, "You can't give me an explanation on this, right?"

"That's right." Mo Li responded.

Yun Qishen immediately followed up his words and said, "But my guess is pretty close to the truth."

"..." Mo Li fell silent again.

"Okay, I understand. Let's skip this topic." Seeing the candlelight in Mo Li's hand swaying, Yun Qishen changed the subject directly, "Where are Dai Qi and the others now?"

Mo Li heaved a sigh of relief and replied to you, "The guest rooms on the second floor, the disciples from Tingcha Mountain Gate are also here."

"Oh, they won't be arranged together, right?" Yun Qishen crossed his arms in front of his chest and smiled playfully.

Mo Li replied seriously, "My inn is not that small."

"Haha, I'll go take a look. Please help your brother suppress the disease. Some things require ghost power." Seeing that Mo Li was completely unable to joke, Yun Qishen didn't want to waste time with him here, so he simply put down the candle in Mo Li's hand and walked towards the ground. In order to prevent unnecessary trouble, he deliberately changed his face.

As a result, when they went to the second floor of the inn, Dai Qi directly stopped Yun Qishen and shouted, "Qishen."

Yun Qishen subconsciously took two steps back. After seeing clearly that it was the evil spirit, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, "You have sharp eyes. You can recognize me even after I become like this?"

Dai Qi Chongyun Qishen smiled heartlessly, "If the little Taoist priest cannot recognize the Demon Lord at first glance, then the little Taoist priest has really failed in his cultivation."

"Let's not talk about this for now. Let me take a look at Fu Quxiao and the others first." Yun Qishen bypassed the evil spirit and went straight to the room of the inn.

Dai Qi followed in and first approached Fu Quxiao. He patted Fu Quxiao's shoulder vigorously. Fu Quxiao was still in a coma and did not respond. "Fu Quxiao just took a hemostatic pill. He is not in any serious condition now. The other disciples also have some minor injuries. The seriously injured are mainly..."

As Dai Qi spoke, his gaze moved to the bed opposite the room. Yun Qishen also followed his gaze and what caught his eye was Yun Qiqing's pale face.

"My second brother?"

Dai Qi nodded, "Yes, the Xuming sword broke on the spot, and the power of Tingcha's disciple's magic weapon hit his heart directly. His breath is not very stable now."

"Well, I'll take a look at him first." Yun Qishen hurriedly used the healing spell to press on Yun Qiqing's heart to heal him. When the light of the healing spell dissipated, Yun Qishen breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, the attack did not completely damage the heart meridian. He is lucky. In the end, it may be my fault. I shouldn't have pushed him out so directly at that time."

"Hmm? Has Qi Shen done such a wicked thing again?" Dai Qi asked with interest.

The only response he got was Yun Qishen's two awkward laughs.
