Chapter 33 The White Moonlight Kills the Male and Female Protagonists (33)
Once inside the secret realm and into the territory of the demon realm, Jingye's expression relaxed.
"Come with me. I've been here with my master several times already. The demons here are weak and cowardly. If they knew who we are, they wouldn't dare to disrespect us."
The surrounding fog dissipated, but my clothes still felt damp. The temperature was very low, and the further I went in, the more I felt like I was walking into an ice cellar.
The three activated their spiritual energy to protect themselves and continued deeper into the area.
As Meng Ling walked, a sudden inspiration struck her, and a strong, urgent impulse surged up, causing her heart to race uncontrollably.
"It's in here, it's in here what I need!"
Whatever it is, it must be something good!
Her intuition was never wrong.
The three of them immediately quickened their pace and headed into the damp woods.
It was eerily quiet here; there wasn't even a bird chirping.
Lianxin felt increasingly uneasy as she walked.
"Was this place just as deserted when you last came here?"
Jingye continued walking forward without looking back.
"Last time it was more lively; all the demons came out to greet Master."
"Since Master isn't here this time, they certainly won't dare to show their faces and provoke us."
Meng Ling urged.
"Senior brother, hurry up! The thing is right ahead! I can feel it!"
Lianxin suppressed her unease and continued forward.
Suddenly, a swamp appeared in front of her. Jingye stopped and used her spiritual power to stir the swamp.
"You turtle demon! Come out now!"
Bubbles began to rise from the center of the murky, thick swamp, and then a giant turtle-like monster, as big as a hill, slowly emerged from the swamp.
Jingye called out.
"Why aren't you docking and taking us across!"
This swamp is protected by a restriction of spiritual energy, so even birds can't fly through it, let alone people without wings.
Immortals who don't want to expend too much spiritual energy to go there are usually demons who live in the swamp.
For example, this turtle demon has a magic rope tied to its nose, confining it to this area, specifically for use as a tool for large vehicles to reach the shore.
This time, the turtle demon swam over silently as before.
A little bit of the turtle shell was visible, along with two eyes.
Jingye leaped up and, after regaining her footing, helped Mengling up as well. Lianxin glanced at the turtle demon several times, and when she hesitated, Mengling pulled her up.
"Senior brother, hurry up! Jin Shu suddenly disappeared. I'm worried she came here like me."
"What a coincidence."
“My intuition is usually right; I suspect she’s here.”
The same thing happened last time. The treasure was right in front of them, but Jin Shu still managed to steal it!
In the end, they even tried to frame her.
The thought of this made Meng Ling angry.
The spirit stones that originally belonged to her were taken by Jin Shu.
If she gets there first again this time, Meng Ling might be so angry she'd die.
Therefore, she was extremely anxious, fearing that something unexpected might happen. As a result, although her cultivation level was already close to the upper realm, she did not sense anything unusual about her surroundings.
The turtle demon carried them as they swam slowly through the swamp.
Meng Ling urged.
"Can you hurry up? It's swimming too slowly."
"The situation below the swamp is complicated, and this turtle demon is quite old; it won't be much faster."
Just then, Meng Ling suddenly heard a familiar voice.
"Jin Shu's voice! Can you hear it?"
Her startled reaction made Lianxin frown and express her dissatisfaction.
Where can I find it?
"Yes, I heard it on the other side of the swamp! It must be her!"
