Chapter 110 Every Step is Difficult
The moment Huali fell into a deep sleep, a burst of spiritual light suddenly shot out from her wrist.
Just as Fen Yu was reaching out to catch the person in his arms, he was struck by an invisible gale and spat out a mouthful of blood.
He stared in astonishment at the sleeping Huali. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her body was already suspended in mid-air, wrapped in snow-white fox fur. Thousands of silver hairs, like the first snow under the moon or flowing clouds, gently embraced the girl in the middle, like pearls and jewels.
Bitterness and resentment flashed in Fen Yu's eyes. Ignoring Wu Yu's obstruction, he reached out again. Just as he was about to touch Hua Li, the snow-white fox fur suddenly exploded into thousands of silver rays.
Ao Bai stared at all in shock, "This is... those few strands of silk that Luo Chuan gave me..."
Before the words were even finished, the fox fur wrapped itself around Ao Bai's tail without any hesitation and threw him into the protective circle.
Fen Yu was pulled back by Wu Yu with a silver whip, barely managing to save his arm that was almost shattered. When he looked up, the sadness in his eyes had not yet faded, and suddenly his white pupils felt a sharp pain.
The same backlash from the eye technique struck again.
Forgetting her composure, Fen Yu abruptly looked up, "How is this possible..."
Wu Yu was equally shocked, "Failed again? This time, even without casting the spell from a distance, it still didn't work?"
Fen Yu formed a hand seal, the whites of his eyes flooding his irises like a tide, and silver-gray lines exploded deep within his pupils, "Empathy!!"
She actually shares a connection with the Demon King!
The fundamental reason for both failures was that the powerful empathy directly overwhelmed his pupil technique.
Not only did he fail to bring Karin into the dream he had woven, but because the girl had no causal connection, he used her as a vessel to transfer the dream to another place.
A gust of wind, carrying the earthy scent, swept across Fen Yu's eyes, and in the distance, the surface of the swamp where the dragon lizard lurked rippled.
Even though they were thousands of miles apart, the terrifying pressure of the lightning tribulation still ignited here, and the strong wind that rushed into their throats suddenly extinguished the restlessness of the burning rain.
He suddenly calmed down.
*
Karin opened her eyes, feeling dizzy and lightheaded, and found herself curled up in an ice cave, with blood from melting snow water constantly seeping from the corner of her mouth into her throat.
That bastard Fen Yu! None of the princes of the Witch Clan are any good!
One is severed, the other is burned by rain; every single one of them!
The moment the opponent activated their eye technique, Huali was on guard. Logically, she shouldn't have fallen into a dream when the two were facing off.
Moreover, this burning rain probably has some deep-seated grudge against her; why would she give it to her? It's freezing cold!
The shade was all-pervasive; just as Huali was about to move, a deluge of rubble came crashing down upon her.
"Look at the fuzz on this bastard's ears. How dare a half-demon who can't even transform into human form be worthy of cultivating with us?"
Karin instinctively summoned the cards, but her palms were empty.
But that's not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is how her hands have become so small!
Before she could figure it out, more stones rained down on her. Huali hurriedly protected her head and face, but blood still rolled onto the ice, blooming into tiny frost flowers.
The expected pain did not come. Huali was stunned. Did she feel the same way?
No! There's no such thing as shared feelings in dreams, so why is this?
Before she could even think it over, a new day had begun, and the "partners" who had left returned, starting a new round of slaughter.
*
Moonlight, like spider silk, clung to Huali's eyelashes as her small body huddled deep within the ice cave.
The snow-white fur on its tail was now stuck together with blood, forming hard clumps, and its exposed wrists were covered in bruises. These were all left from when the pureblood cubs had pushed it into a pile of thorns this morning; they said that half-demon bones were the best material to grind into poison powder.
If Karin was completely baffled at first, she has now figured it out.
Fen Yu's pupil technique not only failed to take shape, but also, by a twist of fate, allowed her to enter Luo Chuan's body through empathy, experiencing things that had already happened.
Just as she was thinking about this, the aroma of roasted meat suddenly wafted in from outside the cave. Huali had zero control over this body, and although her mind was clear, she couldn't control her body's movements.
So she licked her cracked lips and put her frozen fingers in her mouth to suck on them.
"Huali" murmured to herself, "It will be good when the moon rises, then the snow lotus on the North Cliff will produce edible ice seeds."
But she could no longer see the moonlight; the stone that had hit her forehead yesterday had clouded her right eye with blood.
Huali can't tell how many unbearable nights she's endured.
From the initial fierce resistance and biting, to curling into a silent cocoon after the blood dried up.
All emotions solidified into a shell. In the endless torment, Karin finally learned to use a nonchalant smile to hold back all the knives aimed at her heart.
The next second.
The moment her childhood figure transformed into a teenager, her consciousness was suddenly forced out of her body.
For the first time in this long illusion, Karin saw the face of this body clearly.
The boy was pressed down next to the Demon Transformation Pool, his wet silver hair sticking to the purplish corners of his eyes. Even in such a disheveled state, his proud bone structure could not be concealed, like a crane with a broken wing.
He turned to the attackers, baring his blood-stained canine teeth, his eyes filled with madness. "So, your hands are shaking even more than this bastard's?"
The moment the boy raised his chin, a blazing fire seemed to ignite in the corner of his eye.
But precisely because of her stunning beauty, even her murderous aura carried a hint of allure. In the moment the attacker was stunned, his heterochromatic eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he bit off the victim's neck in one swift motion.
As the sound of bones shattering rang out, a fountain of blood sprayed onto half of his face.
Thinking of the expression on that person's face when he looked at him, a deep disgust flashed in the boy's eyes.
After a moment of silence, he suddenly curled his lips into a smile, and his fingertips condensed into ice blades.
Realizing what he was about to do, Karin lunged forward, yelling, "No!!"
Blood spurted out the instant the ice blade sliced through flesh, and the bloody gash on the boy's cheekbone resembled a scarlet prophecy.
He seemed to sense something and looked in the direction of the rosewood.
Karin was slightly taken aback when she saw the reflection of the boy's heterochromatic eyes.
She has a physical form now?
*
Thunderclaps accompanied a torrential downpour.
The fierce winds brought by the lightning tribulation forced Fen Yu and Wu Yu to activate their protective barriers to resist the terrifying pressure.
Wu Yu spat out a mouthful of blood, raindrops pelting her delicate face, leaving it a mess. A look of resentment flashed in her eyes as she glanced at the sleeping girl nestled in the fox fur behind her.
Why is it that everyone else is in such a sorry state, while she is protected and remains completely untouched by the world?
Lightning ignited the flames of jealousy deep within Wu Yu's eyes. She swiftly formed hand seals, enduring the excruciating pain of the curse's backlash as she broke through the barrier surrounding Hua Li.
Fen Yu tried to stop her, but it was too late. "Wu Yu, stop!!!"
Just a second before the silver whip was about to strike Huali's face, the air suddenly became viscous.
Thousands of water droplets hovered three feet above the ground, refracting the lingering lightning.
Fen Yu abruptly turned his head to look in the direction of the lightning tribulation, "Sumeru Domain?"
Wu Yu exclaimed in disbelief, "He activated the Sumeru Domain during his tribulation?! Is he out of his mind?!"
*
Thousands of miles away, the first lightning tribulation had already struck.
Luo Chuan was trapped in the center of the formation and coughed up a large amount of blood, but he seemed unaware of it, his slender fingers constantly closing and expanding the domain.
The Demon King's lips curved into a mocking smile, but his heterochromatic eyes were full of seriousness.
"My precious little girl... how can I allow her to be bullied?"
