Chapter 73: Narrow Escape
"This ghost thing is so powerful that I feel uncomfortable even if it's a hundred miles away."
Sha Jin looked at the strange black smoke in the distance and couldn't help but exclaimed with horror on his face.
The woman's expression also showed a hint of panic, her eyes showed a dark and strange light, and she became more and more interested in what was inside Zhang Zheng.
It may take a while for the black smoke to be refined. The woman sat on the ground and took out a pot of wine. "Come on, Jinsha, you help me win a great achievement today. I will have a drink with you. I will never forget your kindness in the future."
"
"Haha..." Sha Jin glanced at her, clasped his hands and laughed, "You must have said this to at least ten people. It is really the most poisonous thing to a woman's heart. You lie all the time."
The woman also smiled sweetly, her beautiful eyes looking forward to it, "How can they compare to you?"
She raised her glass and drank it all in one gulp, looking into the distance with a somewhat emotional expression.
"At the beginning, you and I joined the family together. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of years have passed, and everyone around us has been like a passing cloud. Now in the end, those who are still alive are no more than a handful of people."
Putting her jade-white fingers on the flask, the mellow spirit wine poured down, and then she poured a full cup. The woman seemed to be immersed in thousands of thoughts of the past.
With gleaming eyes, he met Sha Jin's gaze, and his tone was gloomy and puzzled: "Tell me, why did we fight so hard to join the family in the first place?"
Sha Jin seemed to be affected by her emotions at this moment, and his originally mocking expression subsided.
At the beginning, hundreds of people competed for the opportunity to join the family, fighting openly and secretly, resulting in countless deaths and injuries. In the end, only thirty people succeeded.
Now, there are only less than a handful of these thirty people left. They are either dead or have no news of them, and most likely died somewhere.
He picked up the wine bottle and poured himself a glass, poured it down his throat, and said dejectedly: "It's just for the sake of the road, what else can it do!"
Rather than saying this to the woman, it is better to say that he said it to himself.
"Bang——"
The clear wine cup fell to the ground and shattered, making a clear sound when it hit.
The woman suddenly covered her face with her hands, and her laughter, as clear and melodious as a bell, was strange to the ears. It sounded like laughing but not laughing, and like crying but not crying.
"Sha Jin, we all joined the family to achieve greatness, but..."
"But have we been able to spy on the great road in these years? Our cultivation is increasing, but the great road is getting further and further away from me."
Sha Jin stretched out his hand as if to comfort her, rested his big palm on her curved back, and finally took it back in defeat.
He poured another glass, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp. Then he threw it hard and the glass fell to the ground, breaking into pieces.
"What the hell, I, Jinsha, was born to pursue the Tao in this life, so what if I am a demon? Throughout the ages, who said that the demon can't become an immortal!"
"I don't go against my will, I am satisfied with the way!"
The woman's body trembled, and the hand covering her face fell lightly. A light blush appeared at the end of her charming and beautiful eyes, and she was full of vitality.
She smiled coquettishly, like an innocent girl who has not seen the world, and said, "Sha Jin said it very well."
The golden bells on the ankles jingled, and the soft white jade hands touched Jinsha's rough face, with a loving expression, and the strange runes reflected in his eyes.
"Sha Jin, I want to achieve greatness, I really want to..."
Sha Jin's eyes widened with horror and fear, and he moved his lips in disbelief, but only uttered one word, "You..."
The tall and muscular figure suddenly fell to the ground, his body stiffened, and he refused to close his eyes.
The woman knelt down beside him, leaned over and caressed his face, looked straight into his wide eyes, and said with a hooked smile: "Sha Jin, you will help me achieve the great road, won't you?"
The wasteland is empty, except for the sound of the wind.
No one could answer her question. She stood up slowly and flicked her fingertips. Blue flames fell on the body, and the corners of her clothes were instantly blackened when they touched the flames.
In less than two breaths, the man's body turned into flying ashes, rolled up into the sky, and returned to dust.
She didn't need an answer from him either.
The dead never say no.
Her eyes fell on a cloud of black smoke in the distance, and she sat on the floor leisurely, picking up the wine glass and sipping lightly.
Now, she just needs to wait for the refining of Jingze Leaf to be completed.
Besides, Zhang Zheng, who was surrounded by black smoke, changed his expression of pain and embarrassment. Although his brows were furrowed, he did not show much pain.
She sat cross-legged and slowly led the black smoke into the whirlpool of life. The originally arrogant black smoke was as silent as a cicada, and was swallowed up by the whirlpool of life without any resistance.
Jingze tree...
Zhang Zheng thought for a moment, so the demon cultivator he met in the secret realm was looking for the Jingze Tree?
No, she shook her head secretly. They shouldn't know that there was a Jingze tree in her body, and according to what the woman said, she thought she had a Jingze leaf in her body.
Therefore, they must have gotten the news about the whereabouts of Jingze Ye in the secret realm, so they disguised themselves as trial disciples and entered the secret realm to hunt for treasures.
As for why she was involved, it was probably because the aura of the Jingze Tree in her body was detected by the spiritual pan in their hands.
It is truly an unforeseen disaster!
In addition to this time, Zhang Zheng gritted his teeth with hatred when he thought about how he had been put on the line three times because of demon cultivation and how he had repeatedly implicated innocent people.
The people of Zhangshui Prefecture, a few fellow outer sects, and this time one million Xuanmen disciples.
I don’t know if they escaped, and I don’t know if Senior Sister Lin and Senior Brother Jiang who were left behind are safe...
This time there were two Golden Core cultivators guarding her. They would never give up if they didn't get what they wanted. There was no way she could save her life from the Golden Core cultivators who were eyeing her.
Zhang Zheng's spiritual consciousness penetrated into Dantian, where a big hole had just been broken, and the spiritual root was almost scratched to death, but the jasper was intact.
A wild grass and a laurel tree grow strong and vigorous among the jasper.
Zhang Zheng's mind moved. The osmanthus tree shook slightly, and a green leaf slowly fell down and landed on Zhang Zheng's hand.
With a flash of inspiration in his eyes and a charming smile, Zhang Zheng twisted the translucent green osmanthus leaves in his hands. Isn't this the ready-made "Jingze leaf"?
Since the Jingze Tree is so precious, those two demon cultivators must have never seen it before, so she could just leave one of them to fool them around.
Having planned his retreat well, Zhang Zheng speeded up the swallowing of the black smoke.
I saw black smoke suddenly billowing like a tide, and the smoke clouds were billowing and steaming.
In less than three quarters of an hour, the shrouded black smoke exploded and disappeared.
There was only one extraordinary green leaf falling slowly.
The woman's eyes widened, she galloped forward and took the "Jing Ze Ye" into her hands. Her throbbing heart was beating fast, and she almost wanted to look up to the sky and scream three times to express her feelings.
The lingering smell of black smoke surrounded her body, making the woman frown.
It was not advisable to stay here for a long time. She made a leap, shrunk to an inch, and quickly disappeared into the sky.
After two full hours, ripples suddenly appeared in the air, "Boom--", the azure water curtain shattered, and Zhang Zheng's figure was slowly revealed.
Fortunately, the demon nun was too confident in the black smoke, and the remaining black smoke had the effect of blocking and devouring spiritual consciousness, so she did not dare to risk exploring this place with her spiritual consciousness.
Only then did Zhang Zheng gain a glimmer of hope.
Of course, it is also indispensable that her water technique has become inexplicably better.
