After a few days of peace and quiet, my "injury" was healed. Meng Yunzhong still took me to Quexian Waterfall every day to teach me simple sword moves, have tea and light meals, and enjoy the beautiful scenery of morning glow and dusk.
However, since I noticed that trace of evil spirit in the orchard last time, I always felt that there was something strange near the Fairy Waterfall, but on the surface there was still the sound of rumbling water.
"Brother Yunzhong, have you ever been to the waterfall?"
I retracted the last sword move and stood not far from the waterfall. I seemed to see spiritual energy fluctuations in the pool under the waterfall, and I immediately became vigilant.
"No."
"Then let's go down and take a look, shall we?"
"No!"
Meng Yunzhong's expression suddenly changed, something I have never seen before.
"Why?"
"The Quexian Waterfall is full of miasma, and ordinary people are not allowed to approach it."
"There are actually two heavens and earth on the top of the cliff and below the cliff?"
"Well, you must not go around to the waterfall, it is too dangerous."
His tone was concerned and commanding, so I had no choice but to nod. However, the spiritual energy in the pool stirred again, and a thread shot directly into the sky from before my eyes. I felt uneasy.
"Brother Yunzhong, I'm a little tired, let's go back."
"You're tired so quickly today?" He looked at me with a smile. After all, it hasn't even been half an hour since the sword was unsheathed.
"There are always those days when I feel a little lazy."
"...Okay. What do you want to eat today?"
"I'll make breakfast today."
…
It is such an ordinary life that I gradually feel that mortals live so freely. They do not have excessive abilities, so they do not need to establish rules to maintain the stability of the six realms. They can live a simple life and make the choices they want to make.
They have their own system to maintain balance, and everyone tries their best to abide by and protect this order. The relationship between people seems complicated, but it is very subtle. Only when you really get along with each other do you realize that there are many things in it.
The taste is worth experiencing, it is a pleasure.
I began to forget my identity again, and I actually began to deliberately avoid the thoughts running back and forth in my mind, letting this simple time flow.
But such peaceful time did not last long.
I practiced swordplay at Quexian Waterfall every day, but I found that the strange movements in the pool became more and more intense. Meng Yunzhong naturally couldn't feel it, but I became more and more uneasy.
One day, I clearly caught a glimpse of a dark shadow flashing across the pool, but a moment later, it disappeared again. I deliberately kicked down a few stones, but after falling into the overlapping waterfalls, I
The sound of water was no longer heard, and it seemed as if it had disappeared into thin air.
Just like this, two months have barely passed, and there is only the end of summer left. Although the sun is still reluctant to leave, the air is still gradually getting cooler.
The night was deep and quiet, and all I could hear in the wooden house was the sound of running water. The sky was very clean and dotted with stars. I lay on the bed, feeling the subtle flow of the night air, and listened carefully to Meng Yunzhong's even breathing across the hall, which seemed normal.
Sound sleep.
I stood up and jumped out of the window.
The evening breeze brought the sound of running water from Quexian Waterfall in the distance. At Chou Shi, that is, when the spiritual power under the waterfall pool fluctuated the most recently, even though there was still some distance, I seemed to be able to feel the powerful rolling like whirlpool.
Power. I think there must be some secret hidden at the bottom of the pool. I do have some guesses. Based on the legend mentioned by Meng Yunzhong, is the bottom of the pool really the entrance to another world?
In the blink of an eye, I was already under the Quexian Waterfall. The roaring water poured down from the sky and plunged into the deep pool in front of my eyes. The moonlight reflected the pool water into a deep ink-like color, but it was very deep.
The place is shimmering with the faint light of spiritual power. It is surrounded by layers of trees. Just as Meng Yunzhong said, the area is filled with strong miasma, but this does not seem to be miasma, but more like the atmosphere that permeates the demonic realm.
That smell. I couldn't help but start to wonder, could it be that this Immortal Waterfall is not leading to the God Realm at all, but directly to the Demon-Sealing Valley?
Just guessing is useless, you will know once you try it. The passage between the Demon Realm and the mortal world is only inaccessible. Although it is difficult to get out of the Demon Realm, it should not be difficult to get in.
I carefully observed the movements at the bottom of the pool, and it seemed that the ripples were not entirely caused by the water flow of the waterfall. I shook my sleeves, and a white silk ribbon formed in the darkness, and then sprang out, shining brightly. I controlled it easily
, following the direction of the waterfall, slowly stretching towards the bottom of the pool. It looks like soft white silk, but it is soaked in spiritual power and can attack at any time.
The moment Bai Ling entered the water, the fluctuations in spiritual power disappeared, and it was surprisingly calm. Bai Ling slowly went deep, being rolled up by the water, and extending downward faster.
Wait! At an unexpected moment, the spiritual power suddenly became stronger, and it was actually on the surface of the water! The water flowing down from the waterfall was violently disturbed, forming a vortex, and the water at the edge of the vortex turned into a very dark color.
, actually swimming and circling, doubling in size every time it goes around.
Suddenly, there was a huge roar, and a black shadow came out of the water. It wrapped around my white silk. In the water, its huge body actually covered up the light from my white silk. Only then did I realize that it had already merged with the white silk.
The silk ribbons were entangled together. I couldn't help but take two steps back. In order to see clearly what this behemoth was, I pulled out the white silk ribbons and drew an arc in the sky. Then the line suddenly exploded and turned into thousands of twinkling light spots.
, illuminating the surroundings. The huge body was illuminated by my light, soared straight into the sky, and continued to emit a long roar that resounded through the sky. I stood there, looking intently at this monster. It had a dragon head and tiger claws, and the whole body was made of jasper.
It was of an ordinary color. The horns on its head were criss-crossed and pointed at the top. Although it came from the water, there were no scales on its body. Instead, it was covered with shining feathers. Looking again, it turned out to have a pair of huge wings spread out.
It was actually more than two feet long. It was rushing towards the dark sky at a rapid speed, and its cry was like a sharp sword cutting through the sky.
Suddenly, it turned its head suddenly, and its two red eyes shot out with fierce light. Its eyes were round and huge, and it was looking at me intently. In an instant, it ran straight towards me, its huge wings wrapped around me.
The huge wind shook the surrounding trees so much that they almost fell to the ground. The force was not good, it must have regarded me as an enemy and wanted to attack me.
Although I was amazed by its strange shape, I was not afraid of such a huge thing.
When it was about to stab me with the sharp horns on its head, I secretly used my spiritual power, the silver light flashed, and my body turned transparent. In fact, I had already traveled to the waterfall in mid-air. It did not react slowly and turned around again.
direction, coming towards me quickly.
I called out the white silk, and in an instant the soft white silk turned into a sharp blade, extending continuously and piercing its eyes. Seeing that the situation was not good, the monster hurriedly ducked to avoid my white silk. It hovered in the air
In a circle, the huge body adjusted, and I suddenly found that it had a huge dragon-like tail behind it. Its feathers fluttered, and the huge tail swept towards me. I quickly dodged and jumped over the waterfall again.
As soon as the shape changed, Bai Ling's direction suddenly turned, from sharp to soft, and spiraled down, like a long snake, swimming to the monster's body and wrapping it tightly. The direction of its tail's sweeping direction shifted, straight
I pumped towards the cascading waterfall, blocking the flow of water for an instant. I followed the trend upward and dragged the monster into the air. Its wings flapped, but it was completely out of control. My Bai Ling was not that easy to break free.
Broken.
Gradually, it stopped struggling and howling, its wings softened, and the surroundings immediately returned to calm. I thought it had exhausted its energy and had given up the fight. I jumped lightly and landed firmly on the Quexian Waterfall.
At the top of the cliff, I waved the white silk ribbon and pulled the giant thing aside. I took back the white silk ribbon and it fell heavily to the ground. I almost felt the vibration of the ground. It was limp and gasping for air. I stood aside and watched it.
However, just when I started to relax my vigilance, the monster's eyes suddenly lit up, it opened its mouth, let out a long roar, a red light flashed in its mouth, and a sharp shadow stabbed straight at me. I didn't have time to dodge, I only felt my left side.
His arm was scratched by something, and the red shadow had long since disappeared. When he lowered his head, he saw that he was injured. This monster actually lured the enemy with a painful flesh trick.
I suddenly felt angry, but at this moment, this monster stood up from the ground at a speed that I could not imagine. Its body shape changed, and its long tail and wings had disappeared! At this moment, it looked like a unicorn, but it had four tiger claws to stabilize it.
It firmly grasped the ground and stared at me with two fiery red eyes, as if it knew I was injured. It faced me, as if waiting for the opportunity to attack again.
I was secretly angry and mobilized the white silk in my sleeves, preparing to attack it.
At this moment, I noticed the aura of a mortal not far away. There was no doubt that Meng Yunzhong was here. I frowned and was a little panicked. He didn't know that I was a demon, let alone believe that there were demons in this world.
At this moment, I was suddenly very afraid that he would know my true identity, or perhaps I was afraid that I would lose this simple and comfortable lifestyle.
I took back the white silk and stared at the monster. It seemed to have seen my hesitation, its expression suddenly changed, and its murderous intent rose sharply. In the blink of an eye, its huge body ran towards me.
Meng Yunzhong's footsteps suddenly became faster. I quickly covered the wound on my arm and collapsed on the ground.
There was a flash of white light, and a long sword was thrust straight into the throat of the giant creature.
"Boom!"
When the blade of the long sword pierced the monster's neck, there was no reaction at all, and it instantly fell to the ground like a piece of scrap metal. After all, this monster was an extraordinary creature, so it was completely indifferent to the flying sword that had no spiritual power.
But the sword diverted the monster's attention to Meng Yunzhong, who was running towards me. I immediately felt something was wrong, but I didn't know what to do.
The monster roared loudly and seemed to have no fear of Meng Yunzhong, who was overestimating his own strength. It turned around and attacked Meng Yunzhong directly.
Meng Yunzhong has always been a mortal, how could he compete with this behemoth? He jumped ten feet away, then turned and leaned towards me. I think he wanted to get away first and take me away from here. He quickly picked up the sword on the ground.
, turned around and pulled me up, protecting me tightly by his side.
But how could that monster be so easy to deal with? The moment Meng Yunzhong turned around, he had a look of horror on his face, because the monster had already rushed in front of us, its fiery red eyes erupting with anger and killing intent. I heard Meng Yunzhong breathing rapidly, but he still
He pulled me behind him and raised his sword as a shield. The monster was approaching in an instant. Meng Yunzhong pushed me away and used his flesh and blood to deal with the monster. He struggled to avoid the monster's huge feet, only to
I could defend again and again, retreat again and again, without any chance of counterattack. I secretly twitched Bai Ling, but never had the chance to release it. The monster seemed to have noticed that I deliberately concealed my spiritual power, and even treated this battle as a joke.
, not only brought Meng Yunzhong to a dead end, but also continued to consume his physical strength. If this continues, Meng Yunzhong will definitely be exhausted.
I couldn't bear it anymore, and now I couldn't care much anymore. I picked up a stone next to me, held it in my hands, concentrated my spiritual power on the stone, and threw it at the monster. It was not prepared in advance, and the stone with spiritual power
It hit it hard on the belly, and it screamed in pain. It turned its head and opened its mouth. The red shadow bypassed Meng Yunzhong and rushed towards me quickly. I originally planned to get up and dodge, but after all, I suffered a pain like this.
The attack will no longer hurt me easily, but at this moment, Meng Yunzhong got the strength from nowhere and flashed in front of me in an instant. The red shadow was like lightning. I saw it piercing Meng Yunzhong's chest, but it was already
There was no time to stop me. Meng Yunzhong fell down in front of me and fainted immediately. He was seriously injured.
The monster seemed to be in high spirits, roaring to the sky. I yelled angrily, slapping the ground angrily, and Bai Ling rushed out instantly, pointing directly at the monster's throat. The monster was startled, took a few steps back, and quickly dodged to avoid it. I was so poor
Reluctant to give up, Bai Ling was entangled with the monster. It seemed that the monster was not as vulnerable as it was at first. Previously, it was just trying to lure the enemy. Now it was forced into a corner and resisted angrily, but it acted with both force and softness.
Bai Ling also struggled with it for a long time, but still couldn't win. However, I became a little panicked. The red shadow in the monster's mouth must be its tongue. I don't know what its saliva is. The wound on my arm was bleeding. Although
It's just leaking out, but it's getting more and more painful. If I continue to use it like this, I'm afraid the pain will be unbearable and I won't be able to withstand it.
Bleeding? I suddenly remembered that my blood is fatal to demons. This monster exudes the aura of the demon realm. If it is really a demon, then my blood is fatal to it. I withdrew Bai Ling, turned around, and retreated straight away.
After walking two feet back, I held the wound tightly with my right hand, and suddenly my blood soaked into the gaps between my fingers. I condensed the light red blood into drops, raised my hand, and a red light flashed in the dark night. The monster obviously didn't notice it.
