Above all spirits

Chapter 305 Undying Memories

The palace is very large.

However, the room containing many sleeping people that Xiangling had mentioned did not exist.

The layout here must have been changed recently.

As Gu Yun explored the area, he discovered that many of the ornaments and other decorations differed somewhat from the style of the palace when it was first built.

It's not hard to guess that Yunyin has either met the conditions for condensing the Illusionary Dream Emperor's Will or has already condensed it.

wrong.

It shouldn't be yet. The establishment and unification of the chosen ones requires the Emperor's Will to not yet be condensed. If the Emperor's Will has already been condensed, it may lose a great deal of effect, or cause the extraction of the origin of the rules to fail in the end.

Otherwise, it would be hard to explain why the gods and demons didn't directly target those emperors and attack them. Although there was a possibility that they couldn't win in the lower realm, there was always an opportunity to surround and kill them when they were alone.

What does it matter if someone loses their status and gangs up on you in front of a God-King or Demon-King? The rules are drawn up by the victors, and history is written by the victors.

However, Gu Yun has never heard of such rumors. Obviously, the existence that has already condensed the Emperor's will does not meet their requirements. He does not know the deeper reason.

Unbeknownst to Gu Yun, he arrived at the top floor. The palace was not large, with only three floors in total. The first floor seemed to be a temporary resting place for some maids and guards. In the middle of the floor was a huge empty space, and the array patterns on the ground had not completely dissipated. This was probably the scene that Xiang Ling had seen. The second floor seemed to be an armory and a place for preparing food. It's not that people at the Saint Body level need to eat. Beings at high life levels can interact with the spiritual energy of the outside world to obtain the necessary source of action. It's just that what they eat is not necessarily good. They eat rare ingredients that help with cultivation.

Of course, Gu Yun wouldn't even look at these things. As he was about to enter the Demon Body realm and become a Demon General, eating these things was purely for the sake of eating and had no other meaning. He glanced at the armory and, perhaps because it wasn't in the core treasure vault, it contained only some mid-grade or even low-grade spiritual treasures.

The third floor, which is the floor we are on now, is designed to be the residence of higher-ups. Just as I was wondering if I would be returning empty-handed, a soft, melodious female voice came from one of the rooms.

Gu Yun then realized that she had not gone to the wrong place.

“Miss, even if you don’t want to be a chosen one of the gods, you must take care of your body. Even if you have a body with the status of a powerful physique, it is ultimately only achieved by the Elven royal family using various spiritual medicines in combination with the Dreamlike Intent. In reality, your foundation is very unstable. If you do not continue to interact with the outside world to consolidate it, it may lead to a drop in your status, and your body will become even weaker.”

"I...I understand, I'll eat it. You...can go now."

The woman's voice came softly from inside the door, giving Gu Yun a sense of familiarity and nostalgia. His mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts, but he did not act impulsively. In his current state, he might hear anything that sounded like Yun Yin's voice unless he saw it with his own eyes.

There are still people inside, and to avoid alerting them, Gu Yun must ensure that Yun Yin is the only person in the environment.

Time ticked by, but those few minutes felt like an eternity to Gu Yun.

"Click."

The ornately decorated door in front of us was gently pushed open.

A pretty elven woman wearing a light yellow short-sleeved dress came out. She looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old. But since she was an elf, one could not judge a person's age by their appearance. An elven woman could look twenty, a hundred, or even a thousand years old. If she was a Saint Body expert, the difference would not be much to them.

The woman looked around the "empty" corridor, and seeing nothing amiss, closed the door and went downstairs.

This woman was only at the early stage of the Overlord Body realm, and it was unclear whether she was at the third or fourth level. But regardless of her level, she couldn't possibly detect Gu Yun, who was using the ability "Stealth" and blending into the shadows of the corner of the wall.

After his figure disappeared at the end of the corridor, Gu Yun took a light breath and headed towards that room.

Gu Yun gently gripped the doorknob, a sense of unease creeping into his heart. A long-lost feeling of tension washed over him; he swore he had never been this nervous, not even during the battle in the Canglan Empire.

Gu Yun remained holding the doorknob for about a minute.

Of course, he wasn't really spacing out for a minute. Instead, he sensed whether there were any special barriers or formations on the door. The result was that the feedback from the power of assimilation to Gu Yun was that there was no energy form that could be assimilated except for this door.

"Snap, click."

The door opened gently.

The warm-toned room decor came into Gu Yun's view.

The interior space is neither large nor small; it is certainly sufficient for one person to live in.

The main hall was decorated in a very classical and elegant style, with a Western aristocratic feel. The tables and chairs in the center were exquisite, with green vines swirling around them. Some delicious dishes were laid out on the tables, and some unknown sandalwood incense was burning in the corner.

Two blue-patterned flower stands were placed in the two corners of the room near the window, each holding a bunch of unidentified flowers, which looked exceptionally beautiful.

On one of the chairs sat a blonde girl in a blue dress. Gu Yun could not see her face directly from her direction; only half of her back was visible.

At this moment, she was resting her cheek on one hand and twirling her blonde hair with the other, not enjoying the food in front of her. It was clear that she was preoccupied.

Seemingly hearing the door open, the girl said somewhat impatiently.

"Anything else?"

"Didn't I say I would eat? I'll definitely eat today."

Gu Yun chuckled softly, her eyes filled with an unprecedented tenderness, and slowly closed the door.

At this moment, he was absolutely certain that the girl in front of him was...

It's Yunyin.

...

"Girl, stop always resting your face on your hand, and only on the left side. Try resting your right side too. If you're so biased, your face will end up being bigger on one side and smaller on the other, which will be a laughing stock."

The dark-haired man sat by the hospital bed, holding the blonde woman's hand, speaking softly, and occasionally smoothing her bent hair.

The blonde woman just pouted and sulked.

"Mind your own business! It's your fault for always saying you'll take me out to play when you wake up, and that you'll definitely do it next time."

The black-haired man explained with a hint of helplessness.

"Isn't it because your strange illness is getting worse?"

"Do you know that you're very weak right now because you've been on IV drips all this time?"

"I'd probably have to help her walk, how could she go out and have fun?"

"Don't worry, once you're better, I'll definitely take you out to play."

The blonde woman said with some annoyance.

"When will I get better? Is it incurable? Will I...?"

The black-haired man's expression suddenly turned stern as he spoke.

"Don't talk nonsense. You have to believe in modern science and advanced medical technology."

"Don't worry, it will definitely be cured."

"Okay, I want to go to Phoenix Amusement Park when I get better. I've wanted to go for a long time. I heard it was just built in the last few years and there are so many rides."

"You're always in the hospital, yet you're so well-informed. Okay, but you'll have to recover and rest for a while before you can go to the amusement park."

"Okay, I'll definitely get better."

"kindness."
