Chapter 887 I found you, Master!

The Immortal King Wudao was slightly disappointed that these guys finally chose to give up and did not cause any extreme trouble.

His "pledge of allegiance" had failed, and he could only look for another opportunity to show his loyalty.

Many stranded people started working, gathering the remaining souls, maintaining order, and illuminating with soft soul light to prevent the broken souls from merging and devouring each other.

There are at least tens of millions of residual souls in the entire branch of Huangquan Road. They each lead 10,000 residual souls, but the number is still not enough. In the end, the old immortal and a few old friends volunteered to help appease more residual souls.

This is also a huge loss to the souls of those stranded. Their souls have become more illusory, as if some traces of them had been forcibly erased.

Some of the stranded people have even begun to fall into confusion and their mental state is somewhat unclear due to damage to their souls and bodies.

The old immortal, who had been a great psychic in his previous life, was even more confused. The depths of his eyes began to become chaotic and he almost couldn't remember who he was.

Even so, the old immortal was still struggling to hold on. The shock he got from that first glance made him determined to make amends.

He... absolutely must not let down the Emperor of Heaven who glanced back and stopped!

In the past, he was extremely biased and stuck in a dilemma with reincarnation and rebirth; now he has come to his senses and feels that he was too wrong and too far away. The old immortal regrets it very much. Even if he sacrifices his soul and body, as long as he can repay the kindness of His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven, why would he hesitate?

Many stranded people were puzzled by the old immortal's desperate efforts. They seemed to have grasped something vaguely while they were confused. But after careful consideration, they still could not see clearly, just like looking at a mountain through fog.

But they had no intention of causing any more trouble and they had to continue doing it even if they had to grit their teeth.

Once the choice is made, there will be no second chance to hesitate. Although they have stayed in the dark underworld for too long, resulting in somewhat extreme thinking and dull brains, they were all extraordinary people with extraordinary status when they were alive, so they still have some vision.

This honest attitude made the Immortal King Wudao sigh repeatedly in his heart, but he couldn't do anything tricky, so he had to work harder.

Compared with this group of stranded people who gathered the residual souls, the other stranded people who were responsible for salvaging the wreckage of the Naihe Bridge had a harder time. They needed to get close to the Wangchuan River, stare at the strong resentment and unwillingness, and forcibly salvage the Naihe Bridge from the air.

As for the task of rebuilding the Naihe Bridge, it would be handed over to the ghost officials led by Ming Lao. They were armed with repairing instruments of the underworld and were ready for battle.

This was only because Li Yuan withstood the pressure of the entire Wangchuan River. Otherwise, with their current soul bodies, they would not even dare to get close, otherwise they would easily be dragged down by the resentment and unwillingness in it.

While everyone was busy, Li Yuan was already standing in the center of the Wangchuan River.

Rather than standing, it is more like floating in the river, like a solid rock, standing still and unshakable despite the surging waves and all the confusing thoughts.

The Wangchuan River is a bottomless river, but it could never drown the soul of a Taoist emperor. Li Yuan sank most of his body into the river in order to better absorb soul power and repair the souls of hundreds of millions of residual souls.

One by one, the stranded people carefully led the residual souls to the river, and several ghost officials who were in charge of this matter pulled out thousands of threads from the rich soul light behind Li Yuan to repair and perfect those residual souls.

The soul power condensed in the Wangchuan River is pure and "complex", so pure that there is no purer soul power in the Three Realms. It is complex because it is the fusion of endless souls over eternity, which gave birth to such pure soul power.

For these broken souls, this kind of soul power is the best tonic. They quickly recover to their complete posture, their hands and feet are regenerated, and their torsos are restored.

Every time ten thousand residual souls retreated, the stranded ones behind would bring in another group, and this cycle would repeat for a full forty-nine days before all the residual souls on this Yellow Springs Road were repaired.

Li Yuan was originally just a remnant of his soul, and now his face looked even paler and much weaker.

The condition of those who were stranded was even worse. Some of the ancient souls became almost completely transparent and looked like they were about to be shattered and disappear.

And this is only the completion of one of the nine branches of Huangquan.

The task of rebuilding the Naihe Bridge was handed over to the Ghost Officers. Li Yuan glanced at the living souls who were still confused but intact, walked silently to the shore, and led the stranded ones to the next branch of the Yellow Springs.

The expressions of the stranded people changed slightly, but seeing Li Yuan's firm and calm look, they didn't say anything in the end, but just followed silently.

The Immortal King Wudao reacted very quickly and followed Li Yuan closely with an appearance of loyalty, which made many stranded people so angry that they gritted their teeth in anger.

......

Everyone was busy, starting from the first Yellow Spring branch, and rushing to reach the ninth branch, which was also the last Yellow Spring road.

Fortunately, this Source Master was a kind person and did not really let them exhaust their soul power and dissipate. Whenever someone could not hold on any longer, this Source Master would specially extract soul power from the Wangchuan River to replenish their loss.

Of course, Li Yuan silently borne the consequences of this.

The stranded people were fine for the time being, but his eyes became increasingly cloudy, his soul and body were exhausted, and his thinking gradually stagnated.

Even later on, he needed the support of Elder Ming and Immortal King Wudao before he could continue to flow into the Forgetful River and finish his unfinished business.

Perhaps because the soul of the Daozun Emperor exceeded the limit of the underworld, the Wangchuan River could not swallow Li Yuan, nor could it provide him with any supplements. That kind of magnificent power was constantly consumed, and even though Li Yuan was determined, he was about to reach his limit.

However, Li Yuan always felt that besides the endless resentment in the Wangchuan River, there was also some kind of throbbing feeling, as if it was searching hard and constantly approaching by following the breath.

He felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, and even instinctively wanted to respond to the other party, but his inspiration was dim, his mind became increasingly heavy, and it was difficult for him to remember too many memories.

Once again, I waded through the cold and turbid water to the center of the Forgotten River.

Looking at the endless river downstream and listening to the hysterical cries of thousands of souls, I am afraid that no matter who you are, you will wonder where the end of the Forgotten River is.

But Li Yuan knew that the Wangchuan River had no end, just like the long river of time and space. Rather than upstream and downstream, they were more like an infinite circle, connected from beginning to end, and endless.

This kind of knowledge is not taught by anyone, but is the truth seen by directly seeing through the essence of the Tao after reaching the realm of Tao Zun.

Most of Li Yuan's body was immersed in the Forgotten River, using his body as a tool for consumption and transformation, providing infinite soul power to the residual souls on the shore.

While his thoughts were in a mess, a cold and delicate hand, different from the jealousy and unwillingness of those resentful thoughts, suddenly tightly grasped Li Yuan's big hand, which was trembling slightly due to extreme damage, with longing and resentment.

"I found you, Master..."

A long and soft whisper, like a sigh spanning eternity, came.
