After the gray in Zhou Yuanyuan's sea of consciousness faded away, the black fog that enveloped Zhou Yuanyuan also dissipated at the same time.
"Master, this place is a little strange. Let's leave first and make some preparations before returning." Seeing Zhou Yuanyuan regain consciousness, Xiaoyu couldn't help but wipe the sweat from her forehead. This time, she had been careless. Back in Kyoto, Cha Rui had acted so cowardly that Xiaoyu hadn't taken him seriously. She hadn't expected Cha Rui to be so sinister, luring Zhou Yuanyuan to his lair before launching her attack.
Fortunately, the jade talisman that Xiaoyu carved temporarily to dispel evil spirits was effective against the dark energy that invaded Zhou Yuanyuan's sea of consciousness. Otherwise, Xiaoyu would not know what to do.
The sea of consciousness of a cultivator is a very important place. If the dark energy stays in it for too long, Zhou Yuanyuan's sea of consciousness will definitely be damaged.
After Zhou Yuanyuan woke up, her heart was still beating violently.
From the time she embarked on the path of cultivating immortality until now, Zhou Yuanyuan has been doing so smoothly that she has lost her vigilance.
There was something strange about this place. Zhou Yuanyuan's spiritual sense swept through it, but found nothing unusual. Only when her feet touched the ground did those dark, negative emotions trigger. Zhou Yuanyuan cared most about her family and her rebirth, which was why she almost fell into the trap.
Forget it, the truth is not as important as her life. Zhou Yuanyuan still needs to keep this life to protect her family and make them live a long and happy life!
Thinking of this, Zhou Yuanyuan used the magic of "shrinking the earth into an inch" and prepared to leave here first.
One step, two steps, three steps... After Zhou Yuanyuan took about ten steps, she realized that the surrounding environment had not changed at all.
"Oh no, master, this... this seems to be a forbidden place for spirits." Xiaoyu's voice trembled a little.
A forbidden place for spirits? What does that even mean? Zhou Yuanyuan, a novice cultivator, was completely bewildered.
"Master, the forbidden land is a place without any spiritual energy." Xiaoyu said with a sad face.
The reason monks are so powerful is that they not only absorb spiritual energy from the air to refine their bodies, but they can also store it within their bodies, ready to be used at any time. Xiaoyu didn't dare to say that in the Forbidden Spirit Land, not only is there no spiritual energy in the air, but even the spiritual energy within the monks' bodies is locked by invisible shackles and cannot be used.
The performance of all spells is based on spiritual energy. The reason why Foundation Establishment cultivators are more powerful than Qi Refining cultivators is precisely because they store much more spiritual energy in their bodies than Qi Refining cultivators, and when performing spells, they can call upon much more spiritual energy.
In a word, without spiritual energy, no matter how powerful a cultivator is, his fighting power is about the same as that of an ordinary person.
Because they were in a forbidden place, Zhou Yuanyuan's "shrinking the earth into an inch" technique became ineffective.
Unable to cast spells, could she only leave on foot? Would Cha Rui let her go so easily?
As soon as this idea came to mind, as if to highlight Cha Rui's "cunningness", a crack suddenly appeared under Zhou Yuanyuan's feet.
Zhou Yuanyuan subconsciously tried to soar into the air, but the spiritual energy in her body seemed to be trapped and could not be mobilized at all. Zhou Yuanyuan's feet were empty and she fell into the crack.
The sudden feeling of weightlessness made Zhou Yuanyuan scream. Then, remembering that Cha Rui might be watching from the shadows, she quickly shut up and used her spiritual sense to scan the surroundings. There was another space beneath the temple, and it was pitch black. Zhou Yuanyuan could only hear the whirring sound of the wind as she fell.
Damn it! Will I be smashed into a meat pie? Zhou Yuanyuan used her spiritual energy several times to try to slow down her descent, but the spiritual energy in her body still refused to obey.
"Zhuzhu, let me in," Zhou Yuanyuan called out. Spiritual energy couldn't be used here, and without the protection of a spiritual energy shield, Zhou Yuanyuan had no choice but to call for her own spiritual treasure, Chaos Pearl No. 2, to come to the rescue.
"Alright!" The Chaos Pearl had been resting on Zhou Yuanyuan's shoulder. Without her permission, it didn't dare take Zhou Yuanyuan into the Trial World. Seeing that its master finally needed it, the Chaos Pearl quickly opened its mouth and swallowed Zhou Yuanyuan into the Trial World.
Anyway, the Chaos Pearl is not afraid of falling, its body is very hard.
As Zhou Yuanyuan stepped onto the ground of the Chaos Orb Trial World, her racing heart finally settled. This time, she'd been careless. She hadn't expected Cha Rui, who seemed so timid, to have such a trick up his sleeve. If it weren't for the Chaos Orb, the consequences would have been truly disastrous. However, it was precisely because of this trump card that Zhou Yuanyuan had fearlessly followed Cha Rui here.
Clearly, everything in this world has a cause and an effect. So... why did Cha Rui lead her here? Did Cha Rui want to force her to reveal Kong Ming's whereabouts?
Five minutes passed. Zhou Yuanyuan stood at the window created by the Chaos Pearl and looked out. It was still pitch black outside.
About ten minutes later, the Chaos Orb crashed into something.
"Gudong gulp..." Caught off guard, Chaos Pearl drank a few mouthfuls of water.
"Pooh, pooh, pooh! Why is there a river here?" Chaos Pearl shouted.
Chaos Pearl thought it would land on solid ground and had already prepared its body to solidify, but unexpectedly fell into a cold river and drank a few gulps of water. Although the water contained energy that Chaos Pearl liked, the posture was too awkward, making Chaos Pearl, who was eager to perform well in front of its master, a little embarrassed and angry.
"Zhuzhu, shut up, someone is coming." Zhou Yuanyuan had already heard the footsteps approaching.
"Hahaha... Monk, do you like the gift I prepared for you?" Cha Rui endured the pain from the raging fire and stayed here just to see Zhou Yuanyuan's miserable appearance. As far as Cha Rui knew, a monk's body was not much stronger than an ordinary person. Without the protection of spiritual energy, Zhou Yuanyuan fell from a height and would be half dead if she didn't die.
Cha Rui limped over when he heard the sound of something falling into the water. Sure enough, although Zhou Yuanyuan's figure could not be seen in the dark water, the ripples on the surface of the river were still there. It was obvious that the arrogant female cultivator had sunk to the bottom of the river.
Cha Rui felt very happy. He had practiced for decades and had always been invincible in Country T. He didn't expect that this time when he went to China, he would suffer a loss at the hands of Zhou Yuanyuan before he found what he wanted.
Zhou Yuanyuan let the Chaos Pearl lie at the bottom of the river, and she herself remained silent. Before learning of Cha Rui's plan, Zhou Yuanyuan decided to remain silent for the time being.
"Female cultivator, I know you are not dead. Are you curious? Why did I bring you here?" Cha Rui probably felt that Zhou Yuanyuan had no chance of escaping, so he couldn't help showing off.
