Chapter 13439 Star Reaching Tower
The talisman was painted with complicated patterns, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura. It was the legendary soul-locking talisman. This talisman could seal the soul tightly inside, so that it would not be taken away by evil spirits from the outside world, nor would it dissipate with the passage of time.
Ling Xiao looked at the soul-locking talisman with mixed feelings.
He slowly handed his father's illusory and weak soul to Jiang Xiruo, his eyes full of reluctance and attachment. When he saw Jiang Xiruo carefully put the soul into the soul-locking talisman and gently chanted the spell to seal it, Ling Xiao couldn't help but sigh, with a hint of sobs in his voice.
"But mother, we have just met, and you are leaving like this... I really can't bear to let you go." Ling Xiao's voice was low and affectionate, and every word revealed his deep attachment to his mother.
He understood that after this separation, he didn't know when they would meet again, and he didn't know when he would see his father's familiar figure again.
"Silly child, do you think your mother can't bear to leave you?" Tears flashed in Jiang Xiruo's eyes and her voice trembled a little. She held Ling Xiao's hand tightly, as if she wanted to condense all her reluctance and concern in this handshake.
"But I also need to become stronger. This crisis made me realize that if I don't have enough strength, I almost can't even protect you. My talent is really wasted in this world with limited rules.
And you, my son, the same thing, you need to go out and explore. You can't stay in this small Demon Suppression House and bury your talent."
Ling Xiao looked at his mother deeply, his eyes also full of reluctance and understanding. He understood that his mother's words were not only her expectations for him, but also her concerns about the future of the family.
He nodded gently, his voice firm and powerful: "Mom, I actually have such a plan. If I stay here, the Holy Hall will never let the Demon Suppression House go. They will find excuses to encroach on our territory step by step and rob our resources.
But if I leave, they might temporarily appease the Demon Suppression House. After all, what they really want are those precious resources, not a dead ruin."
At this point, a hint of determination flashed in Ling Xiao's eyes.
He knew very well that if he continued to stay here, the Demon Suppression House would face more disasters and challenges, which was not the situation he wanted to see. He had witnessed too much death and pain, and did not want to let such a thing happen again.
"Too many people have died. We can't let any more innocent lives pay the price for this struggle." Ling Xiao's voice was low and heavy, and every word revealed his desire for peace and tranquility.
He knew that he had to make a choice for the future of the Demon-Suppressing Mansion, for his mother's expectations, and for the belief in his heart.
"Since you have decided to leave, I have a place to go that may be helpful to you." Jiang Xiruo pondered for a moment, with a thoughtful gleam in her eyes, and then she spoke slowly.
Ling Xiao's heart was moved when he heard this. He was worried that he would have nowhere to go after leaving. After all, the world was so big, but it was almost all controlled by the Holy Hall. It was not easy to find a safe haven.
"Where?" Ling Xiao asked impatiently, his eyes full of anticipation and curiosity.
"Zhaixing Tower!" Jiang Xiruo uttered these three words softly, with a barely perceptible awe and yearning in her tone.
"Zhaixing Tower? What exactly is that place?" Ling Xiao frowned slightly, and a strong curiosity and desire for knowledge surged in his heart. He had never heard of this name, and he didn't know what kind of secrets and power were hidden behind it.
Seeing this, Jiang Xiruo smiled slightly, as if she had expected Ling Xiao to ask this question. She slowly explained:
“This Zhaixing Tower is a sect independent of the Holy Hall. Its power is so huge and its foundation is so profound that even the Holy Hall does not dare to provoke it easily.
The owner of the Zhaixing Tower is a powerful person with unfathomable strength. Even the Holy Hall is wary of his skills and methods. Therefore, if you can join the Zhaixing Tower, the Holy Hall will naturally not dare to cause trouble for you easily. "
"Is there really such a place in this world? Does the Holy Temple just watch it and do nothing about it?" Ling Xiao's face was full of surprise, and his voice revealed an emotion of disbelief.
He had always believed that the Holy Hall, as the overlord of Bai Ze Continent, should be omnipresent and omnipotent, but he did not expect that there were places they could not control.
Jiang Xiruo looked at Ling Xiao's surprised expression, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.
"In fact, there are many such places. Although the Holy Hall nominally controls the entire Bai Ze Continent, their manpower and energy are limited and it is impossible for them to take care of everything.
In this distant Dazhen Dynasty, there are many places that are beyond their reach. These places often have their own rules and forces. Even if the Holy Hall wants to intervene, it must weigh the pros and cons and will not easily provoke them. "
At this point, Jiang Xiruo's eyes suddenly became solemn. She frowned slightly, with a hint of reminder and warning in her tone:
"However, son, you should not be too careless. Although the Star Picking Tower is a place that the Holy Hall is afraid of, you should not forget that the treasure you carry is too precious to tempt anyone.
The Holy Hall will naturally not give up the pursuit and robbing of you easily. However, if you really join the Star Picking Tower, they may not come to trouble you blatantly, but they will definitely make small moves in secret.
Therefore, you must be careful in Zhaixing Tower and must not be careless."
Ling Xiao felt a warm current in his heart when he heard Jiang Xiruo's words. He knew that his mother was worried about him and thinking about him.
"Is the Star Picking Tower really suitable for me to practice?" Ling Xiao's eyes flashed with expectation and doubt. He was well aware of his current situation. He had to become stronger as soon as possible to gain a foothold in this world where the strong were respected. It was impossible for him to rely on the protection of others forever.
Jiang Xiruo smiled gently, as if she saw through Ling Xiao's thoughts, and she said softly:
"Of course, as a sect independent of the Holy Hall, the Star Picking Tower has a very complete internal configuration, with various cultivation towers, such as the Magic Tower, the Formation Tower, the Sword Tower, etc. You are a magic cultivator, so the most suitable place to go is the Magic Tower.
It contains everything, not only the secrets and inheritance of various magic, but also the insights and experiences of countless senior masters. Naturally, there is a way of cultivation that is suitable for you."
When Ling Xiao heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but then he showed a little worry: "Then how strong is this Demon Tower in the Star-Picking Tower?" He knew very well that choosing a powerful sect would play a vital role in his growth.
