heresy
"Awoo!" Because he couldn't catch his prey and was being teased, the blue-eyed lion king became furious, raised his sharp claws, and rushed straight towards Xing Zhier.
Xing Zhier's face was bruised from the excessive consumption of her physical strength and spiritual energy. She wiped her face and angrily shouted, "Hellfire!"
Immediately, the blue-eyed lion king was surrounded by flames. However, even though it was trapped, it was not injured, only a few hairs on its body were singed.
"Ouch! Ouch!" It roared, stomping its feet hard on the ground to show its anger. Dust and smoke rose up from its stomping power, and the ground was shaken by its feet.
“Damn it!”
Li Ling took the opportunity to pull Xing Zhi'er to the other side, but they were not in time. The lion king escaped from the fire and used the sound waves to roll up a huge rock and smashed it towards the two of them. Li Ling and Xing Zhi'er fell to the side, but they managed to stand up and drew their swords to split the rock in half.
The blue-eyed lion king was no pushover either, and he threw another impenetrable stone.
Seeing Li Ling standing there motionless, Xing Zhier shouted anxiously, "What are you standing there for! Run!"
But Li Ling's current condition was not good. It felt like something was desperately trying to drill into his brain, causing him a tearing pain. His consciousness began to become unclear, his ears were buzzing, and he seemed to hear Xing Zhier calling him vaguely.
Above the Mirror of Dreams, "Anan" watched all this with a cold and indifferent look.
Yu Jun murmured, "The demonic energy has begun to control his will."
Seeing that "Anan" didn't deny it, it seemed that her guess was correct. The demonic energy cast by "Anan" couldn't control a person all at once, but could only slowly erode them. As for when he could completely control Li Ling, it all depended on his cultivation and will.
Seeing that Li Ling didn't react at all, Xing Zhier rushed forward and took Li Ling away from the attack range of the blue-eyed lion king.
Xing Zhier's back hurt from the fall, but because the situation was critical, she didn't care about the injury at all. She got up and went to look at Li Ling, but found that he had already stood up.
The lion king was still chasing them relentlessly. Seeing that the lion king was about to pounce again, Li Ling still didn't know how to move. Xing Zhi'er shouted in confusion and anxiety: "What are you doing? Come with me quickly!"
Xing Zhier reached out to pull Ling away, but failed. Then, an incredible scene happened.
Li Ling's body was filled with demonic energy, his eyes were bloodshot, and within a few seconds, he had some of the majesty of a demon girl descending into the world.
Is this... possessed by a demon?
How is that possible!
Xing Zhi'er was startled. After days of fierce fighting, it was impossible for her to remain uninjured. It was just that she had hidden it well, preventing Li Ling from noticing. Now, the situation was strange. The wound, under the inexplicable pressure from the Lion King and Li Ling, was showing signs of worsening.
"Li Ling, wake up..." Xing Zhier said with difficulty, pressing the painful spot on her chest.
Li Ling shook his head in a trance, as if he was enduring great pain. Veins on his forehead bulged unconsciously. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth to control himself from hurting Xing Zhier.
Xing Zhier was frightened and frightened by him, but she had no intention of retreating.
Li Ling's consciousness was in a state of confusion at this moment. He couldn't tell east from west, south from north, let alone any sounds from the outside world. But for some reason, even though his head was aching, he still remembered not to hurt anyone.
The light and shadows before his eyes intertwined and blurred. An evil voice kept beckoning him: "Give me your body, give it to me and you won't feel any pain. Give it to me, give it to me..."
Countless bloody hands stretched out from the blood, they grabbed Li Ling tightly and dragged him down.
It’s all fake, it’s all fake!
Li Ling shouted in his heart, but his consciousness sank with the sound of his mumbling, falling into darkness. He felt like he was stuck in a quagmire, his body growing heavier and heavier, being swallowed up bit by bit.
So tired...
He sighed silently.
Let's just take a break...
A Ling——
It’s my sister!
Hearing this familiar voice, Li Ling, who was about to give up struggling, was suddenly awakened.
Don't give up, get out alive...
Li Ling opened his eyes, his eyes moist, and whispered with trembling lips, "Sister." He glanced around, but didn't see An Nan. Everything was an illusion...
Seeing the demonic energy permeating his sea of consciousness, Li Ling suddenly understood and his eyes immediately turned cold. He calmed his mind and sent a message to Xing Zhier through his mind: "Xing Zhier?"
"Li Ling, are you awake?" Xing Zhier looked at Li Ling's closed eyes and felt that he didn't look like he was awake.
"Not yet. Assist me in setting up the formation, and I'll explain the rest to you later."
Xing Zhi'er didn't hesitate and said directly, "Okay!" She struggled to drag Li Ling away from the lion king's mouth. The lion king was still outside searching for them, so they didn't have time to waste.
The two of them worked together to form seals and set up an exorcism formation. In addition, the evil spirit probably didn't expect that Li Ling, who was in its grasp, would run away like this, so it didn't notice that Li Ling's consciousness had escaped from its control.
By the time the evil spirit realized that something was wrong, it was already too late. Li Ling took control of the situation and drove out all the evil spirits that he had absorbed from the Dream Mirror. However, the evil spirit that had originally attached to him could not be expelled.
"Release!" The two of them shouted in unison, and some of the evil spirits were driven out one by one.
Li Ling opened his eyes, the blood color in his eyes quickly faded, and his vision became clear again.
Xing Zhier said happily with a tired voice, "That's great."
But before they could be happy, the blue-eyed lion king came after them again, waving its claws and attacking without hesitation.
Li Ling had just regained consciousness, and under the stimulation of danger, his mind became even clearer. He struggled to send out a stream of spiritual power to block the attack.
The lion king roared, causing pain in the two men's eardrums.
Big beads of sweat appeared on Li Ling's forehead, and his face was as pale as paper. With a "puff", he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Xing Zhier asked worriedly, "Are you okay?" She was already very tired, but she still held on firmly.
Li Ling stood up shakily, releasing his spiritual power, and the blood color in his eyes spread again.
Xing Zhier's eyes narrowed slightly, hiding a hidden worry, "Li Ling, I can still hold on..."
"Don't be so stubborn."
Xing Zhier said with a sad face: "I have to be strong."
"You run first, I'll follow."
Xing Zhier recalled Li Ling's previous appearance when he was possessed by a demon, and couldn't help but wonder, "Can you do it?"
Li Ling didn't say anything, just looked at Xing Zhi'er. His eyes were emotionless, but they gave people an invisible pressure that made people compromise involuntarily.
“You can do it… You can do it…”
She didn't hesitate and just turned and ran.
"Ao!" Seeing one of its prey escape, the blue-eyed lion king's eyes turned red with anxiety. It flapped its wings and roared loudly, deafeningly.
Li Ling held on alone, struggling mightily. The bloodshot in his eyes grew increasingly intense. The rage he had just suppressed within his sea of consciousness resurfaced, his inky black eyes replaced by a bloodshot glow. His voice was bone-chillingly cold: "If you dare to come any closer, I'll tear you apart!"
The blue-eyed lion king's pupils shrank slightly, and the next moment, he continued to attack provocatively.
Li Ling's face was so pale that it was almost transparent. He formed seals with his hands and used Professor Lei's secret method of Hidden Tide. His spiritual power was mixed with demonic energy, making the already powerful technique even more powerful.
At that moment, demonic energy that was enough to engulf the Blue-Eyed Lion King rushed into the sky. As a high-level demonic beast, the Blue-Eyed Lion King naturally felt something was wrong, but it was too late. In a moment, it was suppressed to the ground by the demon on Li Ling's body and could not move.
"Do you think I can't kill you?" Li Ling wiped the blood from the corner of his lips with his fingers. With his unfathomable and murderous eyes, the blue-eyed lion king finally knew what fear was.
"Are you not convinced?" Li Ling asked calmly, as if he understood its thoughts.
The blue-eyed lion king screamed as one of its wings was pulled out, leaving a bloody and horrifying sight.
Li Ling's eyes were red as he looked down at the blue-eyed lion king lying on the ground, like the devil descending to the earth.
"Don't kill me..." A hoarse voice sounded, with a hint of humility begging for mercy in its arrogance.
Li Ling asked in surprise: "Is it still spiritual?"
A spiritual monster is hard to come by and is extremely rare in the small world.
"I'll give you the beast crystal, don't kill me!"
Li Ling sneered, a hint of interest flashing in his blood-red, sinister eyes. He stepped on the broken wings of the blue-eyed lion king and said, "You are quite sincere."
Just when the Blue-Eyed Lion King thought he had a chance, Li Ling spoke again: "You're using something that should have belonged to me to negotiate terms with me? Do you think I'm a fool?"
He raised his hand, and the Blue-Eyed Lion King suddenly felt something was wrong. He trembled and said, "I am familiar with this secret place. I can take you to find the treasure!"
As if afraid that Li Ling would not be interested, it added: "I can find anything you want, even the immortal spirit of the hidden tide!"
"...You're smart."
Li Ling is in the sea of consciousness.
"Boy, I have helped you so much, how are you going to repay me? Huh?" Yu Jun pinched Li Ling's chin and said charmingly.
During this time, she had been with "Anan" and had already recovered her memory. Recalling the time when she lost her memory, she wanted to tear "Anan" into pieces and let her taste the thousands of ways of dying in this world!
She really couldn't imagine that she, the dignified Demon Lord, had become a maid who served tea and water to little girls!
The mere thought of it made her furious.
Li Ling couldn't help sighing in his heart. What kind of fate was this? He had just gotten rid of the evil spirit, and now here comes a witch who likes to get into his body!
Li Ling was bound and imprisoned in his sea of consciousness by the demon woman. He was extremely angry and said coldly, "Take your hands away."
Yujun snorted and laughed: "You really don't know what's good for you. Do you know that if I were gone, you wouldn't even know how you died."
Li Ling turned his head away and didn't look at her, but the witch wouldn't let him go. If he didn't straighten his face, she would lean on his arms and play tricks on him.
Li Ling was so angry that his soul was about to lose its balance, so he had no choice but to straighten his head and talk to her in submission.
"Purpose."
Yujun smiled like a poisonous flower: "That's the way it is." As she said that, she reached out and patted Li Ling's butt.
Although it wasn't a physical body, it was more sensitive than a physical body. Li Ling was too shy to even think about killing Yu Jun out of shame.
This damn witch is so... shameless!
Seeing Li Ling with a stern face, looking like a young wife who had been bullied, Yu Jun laughed.
"Why are you so inactive? If I had time, I'd really like to play with you more." Yu Jun covered her mouth and smiled, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore." She straightened her attitude and became more serious. "Looking at how obsessed you are, you should know that 'Anan' is no longer your sister..."
Li Ling pursed his lips and said nothing, and Yu Jun took it as his consent.
She floated calmly in Li Ling's sea of consciousness, "She was originally an ancient heretic, captured by the God Emperor and thrown into this small world."
Heresy? Li Ling frowned. This was the first time he heard of this.
"What is heresy?"
"They are intangible entities that feed on 'jealousy'. They have no limbs and specialize in deviant ways. They are an evil sect not tolerated by the Way of Heaven. However, their cultivation speed is incredibly fast and their level of cultivation is profound, so they are called heretics. Of course, heretics are invisible, so few people know about them."
Her tone was calm when she said this, but if you listened carefully, you would find that there was a lot of contempt and disdain in it, which was especially obvious when she mentioned the word "Heaven's Way".
"Why do you look so familiar?"
Yujun smiled and said bluntly, like a demon with bared fangs: "Because I am also a heretic."
