Chapter 88
The two were talking about delivering a letter when the spiritual communication stone on Jitang's waist suddenly became hot.
The ice bracelet transformed the nightmare energy she released into spiritual power. In Yang Xiaoluan's eyes, she used her spiritual power to activate the spiritual communication stone.
An image half an arm's length and width appeared in front of her. The image spread out like smoke, but the middle was clear, and Lang Yu's anxious face appeared in it.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Yang Xiaoluan beside Jitang.
Lang Yu approached the image inconspicuously, covering the cave behind him, but Ji Tang had sharp eyesight and immediately saw that it was Su Jinzhou's magic cave. At this time, a thick dark purple color appeared outside the cave.
Ji Tang thought to himself that this was not good, and immediately said, "I'm going back to Qianli Yanbo now!"
Lang Yu's expression relaxed slightly, and he just said "Come back soon" before cutting off the video.
Ji Tang said hello to Yang Xiaoluan and ran out of Xin Pavilion, heading all the way to the inner gate. After entering the inner gate, she immediately flew towards Qianli Yanbo on her sword.
She landed in the magic cave and was stunned by the scene before her.
The magic cave that was full of spiritual energy in the past was now shrouded in dark purple energy. Tang was very familiar with this energy, which was exactly the nightmare energy she had transformed into.
The huge nightmare energy not only enveloped the cave, but also had a tendency to continue spreading outward, dragging the entire world into darkness.
Lang Yu was standing outside the cave, pacing back and forth. He didn't dare to get close to the nightmare. When he saw Ji Tang coming back, he hurried to her.
He didn't have time to say much, so he just picked out the important points: "It's urgent! Master and Uncle Jixian are guarding both ends of Qianli Yanbo to prevent the nightmare energy from breaking through the Qianli Yanbo's protective spiritual shield and being discovered by others. Tan Wen just went to ask for the Sect Master, but the Sect Master has been in seclusion for a long time. I don't know if he can be summoned or if he can make it in time... You stay here for the time being, I'll go find Master Gu Yan!"
Ji Tang agreed, and before Lang Yu flew away, he warned her, "Never leave the protective spirit shield without permission. Once the nightmare energy fills Qianli Yanbo, my master and uncle Jixian will strengthen the defenses. If you open a hole elsewhere at this time, the nightmare energy will be untouchable!"
Ji Tang nodded carefully, knowing the importance of the matter.
After Lang Yu left, Ji Tang approached the magic weapon cave.
A huge amount of nightmare energy continued to overflow from the cave, scrambling to devour the nearby spiritual energy.
The two pure forces clashed head-on, neither willing to give in. Yet, for some unknown reason, the spiritual energy, which should have been abundant, was dwindling, becoming increasingly vulnerable to the nightmare energy. As the two energies clashed, the spiritual energy was quickly devoured by the nightmare energy.
The nightmare energy grew stronger again and spread out, enveloping several nearby caves in large balls of dark purple energy, and began to attack cities and territories farther away.
She didn't have time to think about where these nightmare spirits came from. She raised her hand and pointed it at the nightmare spirits raging above the magic weapon cave, and shouted in a deep voice, "Come!"
The ferocious nightmare seemed to be frozen in the air, as if it was examining Ji Tang and trying its best to discern him.
Ji Tang's eyes were sharp, and the power of his soul was suddenly released, with the might of the Tribulation Period bursting out.
Liu Xinmiao and Yu Jixian, who were guarding at both ends of the thousand-mile smoke wave, looked in horror at the place where the power of the soul exploded. However, they were too far away and could not see what happened in the magic cave at all. But the powerful force that made their hearts tremble could not be ignored, and they suddenly had the urge to kneel down. This was the instinctive submission of the weak to the strong.
Such a powerful spiritual power can only be possessed by Su Jinzhou.
It seems that the Immortal Venerable has noticed the changes in the cave and started to take measures to deal with it?
However, the person who had to deal with these terrifying nightmares was not the Immortal Lord, but Ji Tang - the Nightmare Lord himself.
The power of her soul was vast and mighty, as high as a mountain peak piercing the clouds, and more powerful than the surging sea water.
The arrogance of the nightmare spirit died down in an instant, and it suddenly moved closer to Ji Tang's outstretched hand, as if in fear but also as if close. The dark purple energy completely wrapped Ji Tang inside, and was even very flattering, integrating into Ji Tang's body more actively and proactively than when it swallowed spiritual power.
After a full half hour, all the nightmare energy that had been roaring wildly in the thousands of miles of smoke and waves and eating and drinking like a beast out of a cage returned to Ji Tang's body.
Ji Tang's empty body was finally filled with some energy and was no longer dry.
Her cultivation is improving rapidly at an extremely fast speed.
Fusion stage, heartbeat stage, spiritual silence stage, golden elixir stage... the cultivation finally stopped at the golden elixir stage.
Ji Tang narrowed his eyes contentedly. Although this nightmare energy was far from enough, it was still much more pleasing than the nightmare energy during the opening period.
As the nightmare disappeared, the thousands of miles of smoke and waves suddenly became bright and sunny. The spiritual power in the distance that had not been swallowed up slowly emerged and slowly approached this side.
Ji Tang looked towards the magic cave. Even though the nightmare energy was overflowing like this, the spiritual barrier at the entrance of the cave was still unbreakable, which showed how powerful Su Jinzhou was.
She placed her palm on the barrier, used the power of her soul to create a crack big enough for one person to pass through, and then walked in.
She tried every possible way to get into this cave, and now she finally got in.
The barrier gradually closed behind her, and the cave was very dark. Her eyes could not adapt to the darkness when she first entered, so she simply closed her eyes and "saw" the cave with the power of her soul.
Su Jinzhou hasn't appeared until now, which means that he must have been hindered by something. Ji Tang then boldly used the power of his soul and stopped hiding.
This magic cave has a narrow path, which is not long. After walking about twenty steps, you can reach the wide cave.
Through the power of his soul, Ji Tang "saw" Su Jinzhou sitting in the center of the cave in a meditative posture, and the cushion under his legs was the one they had bought at the auction.
Ji Tang's eyes had adapted. She flicked her fingers to light the candles on both sides of the cave and slowly approached Su Jinzhou.
Su Jinzhou did not feel Ji Tang approaching. The nightmare aura on him was so thick that it could not be dissolved. It wrapped him in a thick and airtight layer, completely isolating him from the outside world.
The aura around him was chaotic, and the nightmare energy and his spiritual power were intertwined together, reaching a delicate balance.
Ji Tang did not act rashly, and only then did he take the time to look at the magic cave.
This sight nailed her to the ground.
Jitang stood up slowly in disbelief.
Countless antique display shelves formed circles, filling the cave to the brim. Each circle only left enough space for one person to pass through. The display shelves were filled with magic weapons that she had used and handled in the past, and they were arranged in a very neat manner.
It took her a lot of effort to move herself to the antique display case.
Nearly thirty magical weapons were placed on an antique display shelf near the center of the cave. They were the items she and Su Jinzhou had collected on the black market. Not a single one was missing, and all were neatly arranged.
She continued to walk inside. Some of these magic weapons left a deep impression on her, some only left a faint memory, and some she could not even remember at all, but the subtle nightmare aura remaining on them told her that these were all hers!
Jitang saw the Green Jade Meditation Bell among a bunch of treasures.
She couldn't understand why Su Jinzhou wanted this magical weapon that was of no use to him. It was useless except for being a decoration.
It stands quietly on the top shelf of the antique display cabinet, polished to a bright and shiny finish. Anyone who sees it would think it is a treasure that its owner cherishes very much.
Jitang remembered clearly that when Su Jinzhou defeated the "ghosts and gods" on Zhiyuan Mountain and obtained the Green Jade Tranquility Bell, the nightmare aura on the magic weapon had disappeared. But now, the nightmare aura appeared on the Green Jade Tranquility Bell again - it was her aura.
At that time, Gu Sangniao asked Su Jinzhou, "This spiritual mist looks quite pale in color. Is there any nightmare energy in it?"
How did Su Jinzhou respond? He said, "The nightmare has dissipated."
The nightmare spirit was not dispelled at all.
Ji Tang discovered Su Jinzhou's left hand hidden in his sleeve and asked Lang Yu, "Is Su Jinzhou's left hand injured?"
Lang Yu replied: "I haven't heard that the Immortal Venerable was injured."
At that time, she guessed that Su Jinzhou must have hidden something in his left hand hidden in his sleeve. Now she knew that what Su Jinzhou hid was this nightmare.
The problem that had been bothering her suddenly made sense.
Ji Tang looked away. Not just the Jade Tranquility Bell, but all the magical treasures looked well-cared for. Whether they were rare treasures or small gadgets that low-level cultivators would disdain, they had all been meticulously polished and carefully cared for.
On the other hand, there were treasures piled up randomly under the antique shelf. There were many things that everyone desired. If anyone took one out, people would fight over it. But Su Jinzhou threw them all under the shelf like unwanted garbage. Some of them were even covered with thick dust.
Without exception, none of them had the aura of Nightmare Lord, only spiritual power that was so thick that it could not be dissolved.
Ji Tang had a complicated expression as she walked through rows of antique shelves and saw something even more surprising in the depths.
This is it! This is her favorite jade bed!
She would never mistake this bed because the entire bed was made of the rarest and finest spiritual jade in the world.
She came across the Lingyu by chance, and it really took her a lot of effort to obtain such a precious treasure.
If this huge piece of spiritual jade is cut, many top-level magic weapons can be made. However, what Ji Tang lacks the least is magic weapons, so he put it in the bedroom as a bed as he pleases.
When she woke up and went to Jiuming Tower but didn't see the bed, she was heartbroken. However, she didn't expect that this jade bed would appear in Su Jinzhou's magic cave!
She reached her hand from the foot of the bed to the head, but before she could sigh at the loss and recovery, she looked up and saw the long sword hanging on the stone wall again.
"No trace..."
The long sword instantly emitted a sharp, long cry, as if in response to her. It flew out of its scabbard and quickly circled around Ji Tang.
Ji Tang grabbed the hilt of the sword and lightly stroked the sword surface with his fingers, which was flashing with cold light.
Ever since she used Ji Yao to stab Su Jinzhou, she has never seen it again.
Unexpectedly, it has been well kept by Su Jinzhou.
Ji Yao shook slightly and rubbed Ji Tang's palm.
Jitang stroked it apologetically, "I'm sorry for letting you stay here by yourself for so long."
Ji Yao tapped her with the hilt of his sword to comfort her, then flew up. Ji Tang watched her fly to a nearby location, where she struck another sword that was also hanging on the stone wall.
Jitang immediately recognized that it was Su Jinzhou's sword, Su Zhouzhou.
Su Zhouzhou had been motionless before, as if he was pretending to be dead. Only when he was touched by Ji Yao did he let the sword come out of the scabbard tremblingly. The equally sharp blades collided with Ji Yao. The two swords fought back and forth, but they were so light when they collided. It didn't look like a fight, but more like playing.
Ji Tang smiled and said, "Are you trying to tell me that you are not alone because Zhou Zhou is here?"
Ji Yao circled around Ji Tang again, then moved close to Ji Tang, clinging to her tightly, expressing his longing for her.
Ji Tang held it and whispered, "I can't take you away for the time being." She gestured behind her, "I haven't told my senior brother yet."
Su Zhouzhou lightly tapped the tip of his sword, and there was no trace of him.
Jitang smiled, "Did Zhouzhou already tell you?"
Ji Yao still stuck to her without moving.
Ji Tang said helplessly: "Don't be so petty, I will come to pick you up as soon as possible."
Ji Yao then shook.
Su Zhouzhou came over and touched the missing sword hilt with his sword hilt as if reluctantly.
Ignore it.
Jitang patted the two swords, one in each hand, and put them into the scabbards on the stone wall.
Ji Tang walked back to the center of the cave and looked at Su Jinzhou with a very complicated look.
After the recent incident, the nightmare energy of many magical weapons in the cave was so thin that it almost dissipated. A large part of it flowed out of the cave, and some of it was now falling on Su Jinzhou.
The nightmare energy that was about to dissipate was as thin as spider silk. They came from all directions and finally converged towards Su Jinzhou.
After reading this, is there anything Jitang doesn’t understand?
It turned out that Su Jinzhou was not collecting her magic weapon, but collecting the nightmare she left in the magic weapon.
She never understood why she entered Su Jinzhou's dream for no reason.
Now I finally understand: it's because Su Jinzhou collected too many magic weapons that retained her aura, and then relied on the nightmare energy in the magic weapons to enter the dream. It was precisely because of her nightmare energy and this relationship that she was pulled into the dream.
In other words, Su Jinzhou wanted to see her in her dream through the nightmare, but he didn't expect that he would actually drag himself in!
In his dream, Su Jinzhou was cautious, sad and nostalgic because he finally saw her in his dream.
He was relieved and happy, and worried and sighed because he was afraid that she would not appear in his dreams next time.
——"I want to see you, but if I let it go, sooner or later I will go crazy, and then I will never see you again."
——"There's a demon here. I have to control it, but I don't want to kill it, but I can't let it continue to grow wildly..."
——"I may not be able to show up so often anymore."
——"I already know who most of the people were back then, and I will kill them one by one."
The words "Su Jin Zhou" appeared faster and faster in the dream.
Ji Tang integrated this information, and the scattered beads were finally strung together, and an idea gradually surfaced.
When the Nightmare Lord dies, the inner demon is born.
Ji Tang was struck by lightning.
It turns out that she is the source of Su Jinzhou's inner demons!
Not only did Su Jinzhou fail to crush his inner demon at the beginning, but he used his inner demon as a guide and Ji Tang's nightmare as a source, going against the will of heaven and creating a dream in which Ji Tang existed!
He knew that the Nightmare Lord was dead, but he still condensed a Nightmare Lord in his dream.
The first time he dreamed, he was gentle and careful, afraid of disturbing her. The second time, he was at ease and happy, because he knew this method would work.
He said he couldn't show up so often anymore because he had to kill them one by one.
Jitang didn’t understand at that time, but now he understands.
who are they?
They attacked the Nine Nether Abyss together, and used the heavenly thunder to send her into the Nine Nether Abyss, a famous and upright sect.
Su Jinzhou wanted to kill them before his inner demons took effect.
Therefore, the person in the dream whom he looked at with deep love, whom he held in his arms, and whom he kissed on the lips was none other than herself.
Ji Tang was so shocked that he couldn't move for a long time.
Her eyes were bloodshot and she felt an unbearable soreness. She sat silently beside the unconscious Su Jinzhou.
How much more did she not know about him?
When did he fall in love with her?
It must be tiring to be with her slow-witted junior sister, right?
Jitang always said that he and his senior brother were the best in the world, and he always jumped on his senior brother's side. When something happened, the first person he thought of was his senior brother.
She said it would be nice if she could be with her senior brother forever.
She never thought about it deeply, but Su Jinzhou had secretly liked her for a long time without her knowing.
