Chapter 77 That demon is you, right?



Chapter 77 That demon is you, right?

After seeing Li Xun off, Helan Wei returned to the meeting hall.

If you raise your eyes, you can see what is happening on Xie Yanyu's side on the water curtain.

*

This side.

Xie Yanyu placed his palm on the tree trunk and could sense the surging spiritual power beneath it. Just like the human body, there are intricate blood vessels hidden under the skin, and blood flows through the blood vessels to all parts of the body. In this golden radish, the spiritual power is like blood, flowing through every corner of the tree, every branch, even every leaf and every flower bud.

But the spiritual power flowed everywhere, but it bypassed one place.

Or rather, rather than saying that it is bypassing that place, it is better to say that that place is the source of spiritual power. All the spiritual power in the tree starts from that place and then transmits to the entire tree.

Xie Yanyu could sense the spiritual energy fluctuations within objects. This was an ability given to her by the system. At least for now, what she sensed was correct. So she withdrew her hand and looked towards that place.

That is the top of the tree.

The branches are lush and leafy, but among the branches and leaves, there is a blooming golden radish flower.

The rest of the golden radish flowers on the tree are buds, only this one is in full bloom, with petals spread out and golden light flowing. However, it is hidden among the leaves, and there are many golden radish buds around it, so it is dazzling but not conspicuous.

Xie Yanyu looked at the golden radish flower and pondered for a while.

System: [What are you looking at this flower for?]

It thought she was still worried about the color of the golden radish flowers, so it continued, "Golden is golden. This tree is called Golden Radish, so it's normal for the golden radish flowers to be golden. Besides, you've used those purple golden radish flowers to refine a lot of medicine before, and there were no problems..."

Having said that,

It suddenly paused, feeling as if something was wrong.

At that moment, it seemed to suddenly remember something, but when it was about to speak, it forgot what it was going to say for a moment. It only vaguely remembered that it was a very important matter, so it fell silent again and began to think about what it was going to say.

But at this time,

Xie Yanyu replied: I looked at it because I felt it was the center of the formation.

The system's attention was drawn back by her: [Isn't it this tree?]

Xie Yanyu didn't answer it again.

She had read many books on formations, some on the righteous side, some on the unorthodox side. The formations of various schools were strange and varied, but they all had one common rule: in order to prevent the formation from being destroyed, the smaller and more inconspicuous the formation eye was, the better.

This golden radish is very huge.

Even though it is hidden in the mountains and forests and is not easy to find, if it is used as the eye of the formation, it is still too conspicuous and ostentatious, especially for such an important mountain gate maze.

On the contrary, this golden radish flower is more like the real eye of the formation than this tree. It lives on high branches and hides among the lush leaves. Even if you find this golden radish tree, you may not notice this flower.

In particular,

All the spiritual power in this tree comes from this flower.

Xie Yanyu had a plan in mind. She patted her skirt, stood up, tiptoed, and flew up. She stepped on a branch and raised her hand to pick the golden radish flower.

But just as my fingertips touched its petals,

The next second, the golden light around it began to flow rapidly.

Xie Yanyu immediately felt a strong burning sensation on his fingertips.

At the same time, the entire golden radish began to shake, and the branches on the tree twisted and waved like human limbs, as if crazy, directly throwing Xie Yanyu off the tree, and then the branches rushed towards her like sharp blades.

I don't know when the wind started to blow in the forest.

The black fog around her gathered together, and the leaves on the golden radish were blown off in clusters like rain, but the leaves were sharp, like knives, falling from top to bottom, as if trying to nail her to the spot.

Even from a bystander's perspective, the scene was extremely dangerous.

The elders in the meeting hall looked at the water curtain and saw Xie Yanyu fly back and casually break off a branch from the dead tree next to him.

She used it as a sword and drew out a sword energy. She was not very skilled, but her cultivation was not low, she was at the Golden Core stage, so she chopped the knife-like leaves in the sky into powder, but at the same time, the branches in her hand were also shattered into powder.

However, Jinluo did not let her go.

The branch in her hand broke, leaving her without a weapon, so she reached into her sleeve and quickly fumbled for something, perhaps looking for a weapon. But at this moment, the branch of the golden vine, like a vine, wrapped around her waist and pinned her to the spot, as if to strangle her.

And the other branch stabbed straight into her heart!

One elder had already turned his eyes away: "I'm afraid it won't work."

That golden radish flower is indeed the eye of the formation. For thousands of years, it has been blooming on the branch of this golden radish, blessed by the entire maze, continuously absorbing the spiritual power of heaven and earth. The spiritual power in the flower serves as nutrients, flowing through the entire golden radish tree. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the life gate of this tree.

Even though the tree itself has not yet awakened its spiritual intelligence, after absorbing spiritual energy over the years, it has reached the fifth level of the Golden Elixir Realm. If anyone tries to pick the golden radish flower, it would be equivalent to destroying its vital points and depriving it of nutrients. Therefore, the tree will mobilize all its spiritual energy and indiscriminately attack anyone who tries to pick the golden radish flower.

"Her cultivation is still a little lacking."

"I thought he was a rare genius, and even if his cultivation wasn't strong enough, he could still handle Jin Luo. My expectations were too high."

"Master, do you want to go down the mountain to rescue people?"

As soon as these words fell,

The clan leader looked solemn.

Xie Yanyu's cultivation was only at the Golden Core stage, and he was not as good as this golden radish tree.

After the Golden Core stage, the gap between each realm is huge. Even between the first and second Golden Core stages, the difference in strength is like a chasm.

What's more, Xie Yanyu is not proficient in many magic spells, and can only be regarded as a show-off with empty cultivation. Even if he really makes a move, he cannot fully exert the strength of the first level of Jindan. In front of this golden radish, he has no power to resist.

Because her cultivation was not as good as Jinluo's, even if she used her spiritual power, she could not break a single branch of it.

She has a close relationship with Li Xun.

If anything really happened to her, Li Xun would probably destroy the entire Shangqing Immortal Palace!

Looking at the water curtain, the branch was about to pierce Xie Yanyu's heart.

The headmaster moved his lips and said, "Go down the mountain!"

However, just as these words fell,

The next second,

Before anyone could react, they saw a burst of spiritual power suddenly erupt from Xie Yanyu amidst the chaos in the water curtain.

She is breaking through!

One realm, two realms, three realms...

The wind was blowing violently around, and the spiritual power even formed a cyclone, which broke the thick branch wrapped around her. The dead trees behind her were also broken by this spiritual power, and fell to the ground in pieces!

However, in just a blink of an eye, her cultivation level actually broke through the fifth level of the Golden Core Realm and was on par with the thousand-year-old golden rose!

When the branch of Jinluo was about to pierce her chest like a sword, she quickly grabbed it, then used all her spiritual power to break the branch, then turned it around and threw it diagonally upwards.

The branch pierced through the strong wind, and before anyone could react, it pierced the golden radish flower from front to back like a sharp arrow, shattering the stamens. Then the whole flower suddenly fell apart and fell from the branch.

That's when

The entire golden radish tree seemed to have rapidly lost its vitality. The flower buds on the branches began to fall in clusters, the leaves slowly fell, and the branches of the tree slowly became withered.

This thousand-year-old golden radish has withered.

The maze began to slowly collapse, and the boundary between reality and illusion seemed to begin to slowly merge.

At the same time, because the center of the formation was destroyed, the water curtain flashed and suddenly turned black, and no more images were transmitted from the bottom of the mountain.

The meeting hall was completely silent.

After a long while,

Then came a cry of exclamation——

"...How is it possible to break through five realms in a row?"

*

After the branches in my hand were broken into powder,

Xie Yanyu reached into his sleeve and touched the thing that had been kept in his sleeve pocket.

It is a small ball that looks like a pearl. When she was sealed in the demon world, her guard helped her get it after she fainted. This small ball was at the top of the demon world's seal array at that time. It absorbed various spiritual powers for a long time and condensed into this spiritual power ball.

After Xie Yanyu got it, he did not absorb the spiritual power inside immediately, but kept it with him for emergency use.

There is something wrong with her spiritual veins. If she absorbs too much spiritual energy in one breath, it will backfire.

I didn't expect to use it at this time.

Although the center of the formation was destroyed,

But as expected, she broke through too many realms in one breath, and the spiritual energy in her body flowed backwards, biting her back like a knife.

She squatted on the ground, panting, with darkness in front of her eyes. This time it wasn't that she couldn't see the light, but this time she couldn't see anything even with her eyes open.

She reached into her sleeves and groped for the Mingxin Talisman that Helan Wei had given her.

But I don't know what happened,

She felt dizzy, her hands were shaking, and she couldn't see, so even such a simple movement was a bit difficult for her to do.

The system paused for a moment before reacting: [You've been poisoned!]

It said: [Because you forced your way through the realm, the detoxification pill you took before entering here has lost its effect. Can you seal your spiritual power now? There's poisonous fog all around, so you can't absorb it into your body anymore. You can try to channel all your spiritual power into your dantian like Li Xun did. Otherwise, in your current state, the poison will quickly invade your entire body along with your spiritual power!]

Xie Yanyu was drowsy and could only vaguely hear a few key words.

She did as she was told mechanically, but just as she used a little spiritual power, she felt pain even in breathing.

Therefore, she stopped moving again and wanted to lean against a tree to relax. However, at this moment, a hand touched her forehead, helping her to seal all her spiritual power and temporarily prevent the poison from spreading.

Then the hand held her and lifted her up.

Xie Yanyu felt like he was falling into a warm embrace.

With a very light bamboo leaf fragrance.

She heard someone calling her "Miss" and knew it must be the servant.

But for some reason, perhaps because of the poisoning, her soul was extremely confused at this time, and some images suddenly popped up in her mind.

Some images that remained in one of her souls but had long been forgotten by her——

Demon world,

In the dark cave, her body leaned against the stone wall with her eyes closed, but her soul stood there in a daze.

The man with a gentle temperament looked at her and stretched out his hand towards her soul: "If you want to take something, you can also lead me to get it."

The man is very handsome.

How beautiful is it?

Fair and smooth skin, soft eyebrows and eyes like spring water, light amber pupils, a straight and tall nose, and light-colored smiling lips...

It was the face of her guard.

She suddenly gathered up a little strength, squeezed the hand of the man who was holding her, and then raised her hand to touch his eyebrows.

Shen Lang was stunned.

Feeling her carefully caressing her eyebrows and eyes, his heart softened: "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

His tone was gentle and careful.

After finishing speaking, he continued walking forward while holding her in his arms, waiting for her reply.

But the next second, she was heard saying, "That demon is you... right?"

Shen Lang paused.

The next second, it was like falling into an icy cave.

He had thought before that he would slowly reveal his identity to her after she was less annoyed.

But after knowing the difference in her attitude, he was a little hesitant to confess to her.

If she knew that he was the demon that was haunting her and had deceived her like this, what would her attitude become?

Even though she might not show any more obvious rejection towards him because she could use him, she would only regard him as a tool, a tool not worth even a second glance. She would no longer regard him as the poor, obedient and docile servant, and would withdraw that little bit of pity and gaze she had for him.

Shen Lang felt her touch,

After a long time, he forced his lips together, his heart beating fast, and his tone was stiff: "What are you talking about, Miss? I don't seem to understand."
