"You mean, she was transformed from a monster?" Si Xu looked at Luo Hanchu in surprise. She had secretly investigated and found that the girl's cultivation level was probably at the initial stage of foundation building, which was equivalent to a spirit-level monster. How could she possibly transform?
Luo Hanchu said uncertainly: "Maybe it's a disguise, or maybe..." He was worried in his heart, and what he didn't say out loud was that maybe the demon clan had found a new channel, or some way to connect with the human world.
But apart from Chen Mengdie, I didn't encounter any other strange people or strange things, so I had to continue thinking about the next experience.
"Why does the secret realm restrict cultivators so strictly?" Li Yiru turned to look at Ji Shiyan and asked her question.
The mountain-devouring beasts that were previously in the Red Flame Secret Realm were equivalent to humans at the Golden Core level of cultivation and could continue to survive in the secret realm.
"According to legend, in ancient times, this world was inhabited by spirit beasts, so the rules of heaven and earth didn't restrict demonic beasts that much." Xuan Wu took over the topic, explaining Li Yirou's confusion. "As long as they aren't ferocious beasts that could destroy the world, they can choose one or two secret realms to live freely."
"The secret realm has always existed, and some of their descendants have also inherited these rules."
So that's how it is. That means the monsters can open the passage in the secret realm. If Chen Mengdie is really a monster, then we're in trouble.
"What do you think the girl meant when she said to go deeper?" Li Yiru and a few others were still in the formation, hesitating and not knowing where to go.
Xuan Wu, Si Xu and Ji Shiyan tend to believe that she is telling the truth, but Li Yirou and Luo Hanchu suspect it is a trap.
"How about I tell you a fortune?" Hesitant and relying on metaphysics, Luo Hanchu took out a bamboo tube containing a bunch of bamboo sticks.
But judging from the fact that he encountered strange creatures on the path he chose from the beginning, Luo Hanchu's casual divination was at the same level as his master's, and not very accurate.
"No need, senior brother." Ji Shiyan pushed his arm, signaling him to take it back, but the next moment a stick fell to the ground.
"Very evil." Luo Hanchu said in a serious tone. His body seemed to be coated with a layer of white light. He became mysterious and suddenly possessed a convincing temperament.
He continued to shake the lot, seven times in a row, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter, "How could it be..."
He faced the crowd, the words carved on the bamboo sticks were not clear, but it was not difficult to guess from his expression that it was most likely a disaster.
"There is danger in every direction." Luo Hanchu was silent for a moment before finally speaking.
Is this the result of his interpretation?
"Very good, thank you for wasting our time for a cup of tea." Si Xu rolled his eyes at him, "How can a secret realm be without danger?"
She pulled Xuan Wu along, motioning for Li Yirou and the other two to follow, ignoring Luo Hanchu. "Let's go!"
I thought he was really different... Li Yirou didn't even bother to give him a glance.
The Zhongjie Mountain is probably in front of us. The roar of the water rushing down is becoming clearer and clearer, and the waterfall sounds quite spectacular.
As we got closer, the road became more rocky and the dark areas were covered with moss, making it slippery underfoot.
In the Lei Ze Pond of Zhongjie Mountain, there is a kind of dragon-scale fish, which comes in gold and silver. Not only is its meat delicious, but its scales can also be used to make robes, and the demon pill can also be used to refine water-repellent beads.
The information shows that there are many of them, and it is one of the goals of several people coming to the secret realm. Only Xuan Wu couldn't bear it, because she came for the water spiritual plants in Lei Ze Pond.
They originally planned to walk slowly around from the outside to here, and then go back to the starting point from the other direction.
After finding Chen Mengdie, he encountered the Thunder Spider again. He walked in a straight line and came directly under the waterfall.
Luo Hanchu walked to the front again and began to explore the way. The second one was Li Yiru, followed by Ji Shiyan, Xuan Wu and Si Xu.
Perhaps it was because Li Yiruo had neglected her sword practice recently, and even her body movements were not as steady as before, and she slipped several times.
But everyone else was calm, which made Li Yiru determined to spend more time practicing sword after returning.
[Slow down.] Ji Shiyan held her up the entire time, complaining about the noise and wasting his spiritual consciousness trying to send her a message.
Li Yirou did not move, and suddenly set up a concealment formation, covering several people in it, and looked up at the distance.
From a distance, it looked like a high-hanging waterfall, but she suddenly felt anxious and suggested that everyone wait and observe.
They were all quite patient and had good personalities. They didn't say anything and just observed with her patiently.
"Have you noticed..." Luo Hanchu was very careful and was the first to discover the problem, "The water flow seems to be getting thinner and thinner?"
Without caring about catching fish, they had to find out what was going on and whether it was related to Chen Mengdie.
"Let's walk to the side, go around from behind the woods and observe." He made the decision. Li Yirou was worried, so she put on a third-grade concealment talisman and climbed up quietly.
Among the five people, Luo Hanchu led the way, Si Xu was in charge, and with the help of the concealment talisman, the monsters did not rush up, only some poisonous insects fell, and the few people were able to defend themselves against them.
What surprised Li Yiru was that the spiritual plants in the Central Plains, including those in the secret realm, were not as aggressive as those in the Western Realm.
They slowly approached the top of the mountain, and the roar of the spirit ape, which had only appeared when they were with Chen Mengdie before, became clearer.
"Don't go anymore." Li Yirou arranged a battle formation and stopped Luo Hanchu who was about to move forward. "Go to the right and you'll probably see the top of the mountain."
They hid in the woods to block the feeling of being stared at by each other and avoid being discovered all at once.
"Demon clan!" Si Xu couldn't help but exclaim. Li Yiru and Xuan Wu had low cultivation levels. Even if their eyes were infused with spiritual power, they couldn't see as clearly as Luo Hanchu and the other two.
Li Yirou could only vaguely see a dozen or so dark human figures, with a burst of red mist occasionally appearing.
Most of them have very long arms, and from a distance they really look a bit like monkeys.
Could it be that before, Chen Mengdie was communicating with the demon clan disguised as a spirit ape, trying to guide them to use the earth escape talisman to teleport here?
Or is it that she herself can influence other people's consciousness and create such an illusion?
Li Yirou was just thinking about it when she saw Si Xu suddenly retching, and Luo Hanchu patted her back gently.
"Don't look, be careful not to be discovered." He said this to Ji Shiyan.
Li Yirou saw that the three people's faces had turned ugly. Xuan Wu asked Luo Hanchu, "Brother Luo, can't we deal with those monsters by ourselves?"
She looked at them and thought their number wasn't too large, but Luo Hanchu denied it. "There are still many more behind, and the one setting up the formation doesn't look like we can handle them all."
Speaking of setting up the formation, he looked at Li Yirou, "Is there any formation?" Li Yirou couldn't see clearly.
"Killing formation." Luo Hanchu gestured to take a detour to the depths of the secret realm while telling them what he had seen.
He said that if a cultivator fell into the formation, they would be sucked into the center of the formation. It was similar to the ten thousand jin drop technique that Han Yuzhen had used to kill people before, but the pressure of the formation was even stronger, squeezing people directly into a bloody mist.
It was a strong suppression killing formation. Li Yirou thought of the name of this formation almost instantly. It was indeed necessary to have the Golden Core cultivation to change the environment in the formation.
