Chapter 156
The East China Sea Jiazi Secret Realm was about to open. A divine light floated in the sky, a colorful glass-like light guiding everyone there. Among the many independent cultivators, there were also several teams that looked to be dressed in the same way. Zhou Li looked at them curiously, then looked away and asked the Demon King, "Isn't this Jiazi Secret Realm a small secret realm? Why are there so many people here? Many people from the surrounding sects and gangs have come."
Liang Yiliu patiently explained to his naive disciple, "Because the East China Sea has fewer resources and less abundant spiritual energy than the mainland, even though there are some sects, they still have to compete with the numerous independent cultivators for profit. Just like this Jiazi Secret Realm, although it is small, it also has its advantages. It is called Jiazi because the flow of time inside is inconsistent with that outside. A Jiazi period inside is only a year outside. The spiritual energy is also more abundant than in the East China Sea, making it the most suitable for your cultivation right now."
Zhou Li nodded in understanding. She was now at the Foundation Establishment stage, so if it suited her, it would definitely suit others as well.
Liang Yiliu flew her sword over the Jiazi Secret Realm. The entrance to the secret realm was in the sea. It wasn't time to open yet, but judging by the waves, it was almost time. She quickly finished her last sentence.
"Once you reach the Jiazi Secret Realm, I won't appear again. Everything depends on you."
Zhou Li opened his mouth wide, but it was too late. The Jiazi Secret Realm opened instantly, and the sea water was stirred into a whirlpool. Zhou Li was grabbed by the collar and thrown into the water by the devil. The devil's voice sounded cold and ruthless.
"When you encounter danger, take up your sword and point it at them."
"Everyone who enters the secret realm with you is a competitor! Anyone can kill you! Of course, you can kill them too!"
Zhou Li felt like she was thrown into the drum of a washing machine. Her internal organs were almost dislocated when she was thrown out. She screamed and shouted, "Sword! Sword!"
When she reached the foundation-building stage, she could fly the sword. Liang Yiliu had taught her on the way, and she had practiced it very well. At this moment, she was in a panic and shouted several times. Her hands made hand gestures even faster than when she usually practiced. A silver light whooshed and supported Zhou Li when she was about to land. Zhou Li lay on the sword like a toad, and was slowly lowered to the ground by the sword.
She took a while to sit up, patting her chest to calm her heartbeat. She also had time to look around. She was shocked when she saw that she had obviously landed in a monster's den. There were traces of reptiles climbing nearby, as well as the spiritual pressure left by the monster. Zhou Li stood up in a hurry and was about to run, but before she could run, panicked shouts suddenly came from far away.
“Ahhhhh!!!”
Zhou Li's pupils constricted instantly. The crowd running in the distance quickly overtook her. A bloody wind blew towards her. Zhou Li didn't care about screaming and turned around to run away. However, the person who overtook her obviously wanted to take him down with him. He took advantage of Zhou Li's absence and made a move to block her steps successfully. Zhou Li saw the backs of those people wearing the same clothes and swung her sword to block them angrily, but two fists were no match for four hands. She was instantly beaten back several miles away and came face to face with the monster.
The monster opened its bloody mouth, revealing sharp fangs, and a pair of searchlight-like eyes were right in front of Zhou Li!
Zhou Li panicked, her movements completely erratic! She held her sword across her face, leaning back like a toothpick caught in the opponent's fangs. The stench of rotting food filled her nostrils, making her nauseous. She instinctively held her breath, but the python had another killer move! A tail thicker than Zhou Li's waist coiled around her, attempting to strangle her!
At the critical moment, Zhou Li saw the killer move that the devil taught her flash before her eyes!
He circulated his spiritual energy and roared, "Kill!"
The spirit sword, originally lodged in the python's teeth, suddenly split into two, like a shadow, and stabbed straight into the python's eyes! Killing it completely! Exiting through its skull!
Zhou Li's forehead was covered with sweat, and he suddenly felt the strength in his hands weakening. The python's head collapsed with a bloody hole, stirring up countless dust. Pale green blood gushed out of the hole. The tail that tried to strangle it just coiled up to maintain the shape of a hole.
Zhou Li sat down on the ground, gasping for breath, and was surrounded by pythons.
After a while, she finally laughed heartily as if in a dream.
This was her first time putting her cultivation into practice, and she didn't expect that such a big guy would be so easy to kill.
The person sitting cross-legged in meditation on a tree in the distance also had a smile on his face.
Liang Yiliu extended his spiritual sense into the distance and saw the expression of the person who framed Zhou Li turned cold.
Zhou Li stood up after a while. She crawled out of the python's arms and was no longer afraid.
It was a bit embarrassing to stand in front of the python.
The corpses of monsters are very valuable, but she doesn't know how to divide them, but the space on her storage bracelet is limited.
Zhou Li was thinking when he suddenly heard laughter coming from afar.
"Wow! You actually killed this big monster."
Zhou Li turned around and saw the familiar clothes, his expression turned cold.
The three people on the other side were laughing and joking. They were the ones who had just framed Zhou Li, but they didn't run far away.
A skinny man said, "I thought you were weak and would be killed by the python, but I didn't expect you to kill it. It seems that the sword in your hand is very good."
He looked greedy, with a gleam in his eyes, and it was obvious that he was planning to steal Zhou Li's magic weapon.
"Brothers, this little bitch is fine, but she's probably exhausted. You don't have to go for it. Let me do it." The man holding the double-edged scimitar grinned.
There was also an old man who looked like an immortal next to him and said, "I can't bear to see the female donor suffer. If you are willing to follow me, I will let them let you go."
This is obviously from the Donghai gang.
Hearing that this group of people committed all kinds of atrocities on the sea, including rape and looting, Zhou Li clenched her dagger. This was her first time fighting against someone.
Seeing that she didn't say anything and that she looked alert, the man holding the double-edged scimitar screamed, "Why waste time talking! Catch her! We can do whatever we want!" Then he rushed towards Zhou Li!
Zhou Li wasn't exhausted like they said. Although she had unleashed a killing move, the spiritual energy in her body seemed to be endless, quickly filling the surroundings. She swung her sword and exchanged a few blows with the opponent, but neither of them could find a loophole. The scimitar double-edged swordsman realized that he had met a tough opponent. Seeing Zhou Li's clumsy movements, he knew that she had rarely fought against others. He immediately screamed, "Brothers, come here quickly! This little bitch is obviously from a regular sect! She has a few tricks up her sleeve! Since we have already offended her, we can't let her get away again!"
The two men looked stern when they heard this!
Those born into a sect are naturally different from independent cultivators. They'll be around when they grow old! If they let her go, she might turn around and cause trouble for them when she reunites with the sect! They'll have to stay here for sixty years! They can't let her go!
In just a moment, the other two people who were standing by and watching the show also rushed over.
Zhou Li gripped the hilt of the sword tightly. Although she was nervous, she was not afraid, because she had many magic weapons on her. If she couldn't win, she would just run away. But Zhou Li also wanted to verify her own strength, so she stared at the three evil thieves, her momentum ready to explode.
The skinny monkey jumped up first and actually sprinkled a handful of poison powder. It turned out that he was using poison. Zhou Li accidentally inhaled it, and then a whisk wrapped around her tightly, and then a scimitar shot towards her vitals!
The opponent's first move was a killing move! He didn't hold back at all!
Zhou Li lost her momentum and was tied up by the whisk. Seeing that she was about to be slaughtered, she suddenly bit her tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood to stay awake. She moved her sword-holding wrist slightly and a weak sword energy shot towards herself. Although it scratched her body, it also tore the whisk into pieces. Zhou Li spun around and successfully avoided the scimitar, but she was a little unstable when she landed, and she was obviously poisoned.
"This is autumn chrysanthemum, which is very poisonous. The more you use your spiritual energy, the faster the poison will spread. Stop struggling." The other party laughed wildly.
Zhou Li supported his body with his sword and knelt on the ground.
The poison was indeed as the other party said, but Zhou Li was unwilling to accept it. She couldn't believe that she was so weak that she could be suppressed by such despicable means!
She gritted her teeth, should she escape or give it a try?
If he could escape, there would still be a glimmer of hope. But if he gave it a try and used up all his spiritual energy, he would be poisoned and die. Zhou Li was not sure if he could withstand the poison.
The other party is no longer in a hurry. Like a cat teasing a mouse, he waits for Zhou Li to be completely poisoned and slowly approaches step by step.
Zhou Li lowered his head and suddenly laughed softly.
"What are you laughing at?" The person walking forward suddenly stopped.
Zhou Li looked up and sneered, "I'm laughing at the approaching death of you!"
Zhou Li chose to give it a try.
The sword energy he had just realized shone brightly. Zhou Li launched a shocking attack, using up all his spiritual energy. A shocking sword light seemed to have the power to split the heaven and earth apart, sweeping towards the opponent. It seemed very slow, but it arrived in an instant. The opponent's smile froze on his face in shock. The sword light flashed, and the skinny monkey found that he was fine. He sneered, "It's just... this..."
Then he looked down in astonishment, only to find that his head and body were separate. One head rolled off, and the same happened to the other two.
Zhou Li looked at them and was about to laugh when the poison instantly invaded her heart. Her eyes went dark and she passed out. When she was about to fall to the ground, a sigh was heard in this fierce battlefield. Liang Yiliu instantly appeared behind Zhou Li and caught her by the waist.
Liang Yiliu looked at Zhou Li and shook his head.
Her apprentice is really crazy.
Then he casually released a stream of spiritual energy, and the corpse on the ground turned into ashes.
Liang Yiliu glanced towards the southwest again, and his prying gaze disappeared instantly.
She supported Zhou Li and explored her spiritual sense into Zhou Li's body. She found that although she was poisoned, her body seemed to be resistant to the poison and was actually absorbing the poison.
Liang Yiliu raised his eyebrows. Is this a demonic characteristic?
She simply laid Zhou Li flat, protected her, and waited for Zhou Li's body to absorb it on its own.
After a few months, Zhou Li woke up slowly, and Liang Yiliu disappeared again.
"Is it dark?" Zhou Li sat up in a daze and saw the moon hanging in the sky. She looked at it for a while, and a cool breeze blew. She suddenly woke up and jumped up, but found that except for the corpse of the python, the three people she had killed before were gone.
She felt her body up and down, muttering to herself, "How long have I been sleeping? How come I'm all better now?"
Zhou Li couldn't make a judgement and scratched her head. She looked at the python's corpse, fearing that leaving it there would attract other monsters. After hesitating for a long time, she cut up the corpse and put it into the storage bracelet.
Looking at the moonlight, Zhou Li thought about the situation of the Jiazi Secret Realm that the Demon King had introduced before, and rushed towards the direction of the spiritual plant.
Spiritual plants are suitable for both eating and selling.
Thinking of this, Zhou Li quickened his legs again.
Liang Yiliu followed her and shook his head.
I don’t know how I managed to survive until now with such poor vigilance.
Her thoughts suddenly paused, and then she remembered that her apprentice seemed to be only eight years old this year.
Liang Yiliu was a little upset. Ever since her soft and cute apprentice suddenly grew up, Liang Yiliu felt very embarrassed because she always forgot her apprentice's age.
Thinking about what he was doing when he was eight years old, Liang Yiliu felt a little proud.
As expected, he is worthy of being his disciple. He established his foundation at the age of eight, and killed three people of similar cultivation level in his first move. It seems that his legacy is saved.
Thinking that the future master of Qingyun Sword would have a successor, Liang Yiliu's laziness came back and she was calculating when she could retire. Suddenly she remembered that Zhou Li was a demon and her face fell again.
Liang Yiliu sighed, not at all as calm and composed as he was in front of Zhou Li.
After all, a master still has to put on some pretense, otherwise if his apprentice knows his true identity, he may not be able to suppress it. Liang Yiliu learned this from the head master, and it was taught by the head master himself.
Thinking that all the disciples brought up by the head master were well-behaved, Liang Yiliu strictly followed his example, hoping that she could also quickly help him grow, oh no, cultivate an outstanding disciple.
Dong thought about it carefully. Liang Yiliu saw that Zhou Li had finally arrived at the first treasure hunting spot she mentioned - the Green-edged White Teeth Flower. This flower has ten petals with green edges. The petals look like human teeth. If taken orally, it can cleanse the essence and marrow, and can also increase the cultivation level by ten years. It is another popular spot in the Jiazi Secret Realm. However, Liang Yiliu's spiritual sense had already seen that there was someone here, and this person should be in the late foundation building stage.
Seeing Zhou Li carelessly barging into the opponent's formation, Liang Yiliu just wanted to hold his forehead. Really, he had no vigilance at all and could break into such an obvious formation directly.
Zhou Li felt the earth shake as a mountain suddenly appeared from nowhere on the flat road ahead, bearing down on her! She immediately leaped backward, but she couldn't escape the mountain's reach. She swung her sword, but it was like a cow entering a sea of mud, with no chance of success. She had no choice but to watch the mountain slowly approach, sweat breaking out on her forehead. Even using a magic flying tool couldn't close the distance. She closed her eyes, waiting for death, but unexpectedly, a breeze brushed her face. The mountain, upon reaching her, transformed into a gust of wind and blew past.
Zhou Li opened his eyes, only to see a sea of fire and a mountain of swords in front of him.
She suddenly realized that she was trapped in an illusion.
This illusion obviously followed the thoughts in her mind. When she saw a huge mountain in the distance, the mountain appeared in her illusion. When she closed her eyes, she thought that if there was a breeze that could blow away the mountain, the mountain would turn into wind. The last moment she closed her eyes, she felt that she was in a sea of fire and swords, so the scene in front of her eyes became this again.
Zhou Li curled up the corners of her mouth. She suddenly thought of a sea of flowers. Sure enough, the illusion accurately displayed the scenery in her mind.
Zhou Li's smile didn't last long before it froze on his face.
Now that she knew it was an illusion, how could she break it? She couldn't just waste her time in this illusion, could she?
Zhou Li was going crazy. When she left Wuji Sect, she had never learned any formations, let alone how to break them. The Demon King had never taught her either!
