Lü Zhong was astonished to find that this actually involved him.
"As you can see, Fellow Daoist Lü, I am in this sorry state because I failed to cast the Soul Gathering Technique. Not only did I not achieve my goal of extending my life, but I was hit by a backlash from the power of the Nai River. Even my original body has now transformed into an Evil Spirit." Elder Yun's voice was filled with regret.
He had hoped to use the power of the Nai River to make his soul immortal, but the failed Casting resulted in a backlash that also greatly affected Changchun Valley. Now, a single misstep could lead to the destruction of its ten-thousand-year foundation.
After a long sigh, Yun Yao revealed another piece of information: Changchun Valley was collecting Small True Yang Talismans to suppress the Evil Spirit that his body had become.
"An Evil Spirit? What's that? I've never seen any record of them in the ancient texts." Filled with astonishment, Lü Zhong pressed for an answer.
