He raised his hand and slapped the darkness, releasing a burst of energy from his palm, but the darkness did not change at all.
The divine sense probed into it, but even if the divine sense was extended to the limit, it was still unable to find out what was behind the darkness.
Where exactly is this place?
Suddenly, a figure walked out from the darkness. After seeing his appearance clearly, Zong Ying's pupils shrank and he quickly retreated a long distance.
Unfortunately, Pei Ji was faster. He appeared in front of him like teleporting, put one hand on his crown, and searched his soul!
Zong Ying felt a tingling sensation on his scalp and raised his hand to attack him, but a black chain as thick as a thumb appeared out of nowhere, weaving and entwining in front of him, binding him tightly and making him unable to move.
The next moment, his eyes became dull.
Xue Huan placed the Xumi Mirror beside her legs, walked to the peach tree, sat on the swing, and waved her hand. All kinds of food lined up in front of her.
She strolled leisurely and kept putting food into her mouth.
It’s only been over a month, and the little one in her belly is already so hungry. When he grows a little bigger, will she be able to support him?
She found that the more spiritual energy the food contained, the more obvious the feeling of fullness it brought. The little guy was obviously absorbing spiritual energy.
He simply went to the lake and scooped a cup of spiritual milk and drank it.
Fresh and abundant spiritual energy spread throughout her limbs and bones. In the past, if she had taken in so much spiritual energy at once, she would have had to meditate for a while to refine it, otherwise she would not be able to digest it. But this time, most of the spiritual energy went straight to the little one in her uterus that had not yet taken shape.
It swallowed all the spiritual energy in one breath, and then conveyed a sense of satisfaction and joy to her. It was strange that this little thing hadn't developed anything yet, but it had emotions?
Could it be that she is pregnant with some kind of monster?
Xue Huan stroked her belly with a strange expression.
"Hanhuan." Pei Ji's voice came from behind.
Xue Huan immediately put this thought aside, turned around and asked him, "How's it going? Did you find out anything?"
Pei Ji shook his head. "What I saw were all insignificant things. The information about the mission and the Sect Master was hidden deep in Zong Ying's memory. Just as I was about to check, his soul suddenly combusted. I guess someone had placed a restriction on his soul in advance, and my soul-searching technique triggered it."
Spontaneous combustion of the soul? Xue Huan was horrified when she heard this. "Then doesn't that mean he has already..."
Pei Ji nodded.
Xue Huan was a little stunned. In fact, before arriving at the underground palace, she had a good impression of Zong Ying. She thought he was a very interesting person. He had saved her once before. Who knew he wanted to kill them?
"I found this on him." Pei Ji took out an object. It was a ring with a transparent bead embedded in it, like a marble. A drop of golden-red blood was solidified inside. The drop of blood was like a small flame, revealing a distinct scent.
As soon as he took it out, the ring flew out of his palm and ran towards Xue Huan, but before it got close to her, he grabbed it again.
Xue Huan: "...Could it be possible that this ring has given birth to a spirit?"
Look at how lively it is, it doesn't look like a dead object at all.
Pei Ji: "No, it's because of this drop of blood. Look, even when I hold it in my hand, this drop of blood still leans towards you, as if it is inspired by something."
Xue Huan took a look and saw that it was indeed the ring. She reached out to take the ring and take a look, but Pei Ji dodged her, "Han Huan, I don't know what's wrong with this ring yet. You'd better not touch it. In case something happens..."
Xue Huan shook her head. "I feel an inexplicable affinity for this drop of blood. I have a hunch that it won't harm me."
The intuition of a monk is often very accurate, because this intuition is not groundless, but a kind of perception of cause and effect.
Hearing her say this, Pei Ji had no choice but to hand the ring to her, but he stared at her without blinking, ready to react at any time. As long as the ring moved unusually, he could take it off immediately.
However, after the ring was in Xue Huan's hand, she calmed down and behaved very well.
Whose blood was in the beads on this ring? Why did she feel a connection to it?
After coming out of the space, the two of them studied the space vortex for a while, but their spiritual sense could not penetrate into it at all. They would even be sucked into the vortex before they got close, and then they would have severe headaches.
Nothing was delivered, and there was no response from the other side.
Xue Huan threw in another contracted puppet, but the puppet was unable to pass through the vortex.
The strangling force of this space vortex is too strong.
Although Zong Ying had impure motives in bringing them here, this vortex was indeed constantly devouring the spiritual energy around it. At its speed, within three years, the spiritual energy of the Water Spirit Realm would be completely devoured, and it would become a Dharma-Ending World with no chance of cultivating immortals.
In fact, the lack of spiritual energy may not be a bad thing for ordinary people. Without spiritual energy, there will be no monks and monsters whose combat power is far higher than that of ordinary people. The whole world will be ruled by ordinary people. As time goes by, the world may move towards another development path, such as the development of science and technology.
But that was when there were no magic insects.
Faced with the endless invading demonic insects, humans are likely to become extinct before they can embark on the path of technological civilization.
Therefore, destroying this spiritual cave in front of you is currently the most effective way to resist the magic insects.
Even if we cannot completely exterminate the demon insects, we can at least buy them a chance to breathe.
Having made up her mind, Xue Huan looked at Pei Ji with a firm look in her eyes. Pei Ji understood her plan without her saying it.
Thinking of the baby in her belly, he wanted to object, but in the end he held her hand.
Xue Huan raised the corner of her mouth, took him into the space, and controlled the Five Elements Bead to plunge into the vortex.
Xue Huan felt a strong jolt and was nearly thrown out, but Pei Ji was quick enough to pull her back and hold her tightly in his arms.
Fortunately, this bumpy feeling did not last too long. After just a few seconds, the space stabilized.
Xue Huan immediately pushed Pei Ji away and ran to the side, starting to retch.
Pei Ji patted her back and took out a water bag from the storage bag. It contained honey water that had been mixed in advance. There was a heat preservation talisman on the water bag, so the water inside was still warm.
Xue Huan took two sips of honey water from his hand and leaned in his arms to relax for a while. The feeling of dizziness, nausea and vomiting gradually disappeared.
Pei Ji wiped the corner of her mouth and kissed her on the temple.
"Are you feeling better?" His tone was distressed.
Xue Huan straightened up and said, "Well, the discomfort has passed. I'm fine now."
Seeing that his brows were still furrowed, with a wrinkle in the shape of a Sichuan character, she reached out and smoothed it out, "Stop frowning. You've become an old man."
He can still joke around, it seems like everything is really fine.
