Chapter 267: We must obey the law and be good citizens
The world of the cabin suddenly began to change slowly, and the landscape also slowly changed, becoming a cold silver-gray.
"This is the original topography of this place, right?" Lin Du said.
The rabbit nodded and said perfunctorily, "You opened the ninth door and arrived at the core of the palace. But in order to welcome you, I must transform into the appearance you imagined in your mind."
Lin Du's guess came to a conclusion. "So the illusion we were in the Moon Sea was created by you, right?"
The rabbit obviously didn't expect Xueling to be so sensitive. It turned its head and asked, "What's the matter?"
Lin Du shook his head, "Nothing."
No wonder she said that it was difficult to form a natural formation in the place of Mirror Flowers, Water Moon, but there happened to be such a complex illusion that could handle the inner responses of multiple people's consciousness.
It turns out that it is Han Yueling's natural ability to change the environment and objects according to people's inner expectations.
On a silver-gray land, Rabbit locked the two people in place with a barrier, and hopped and led Lin Du inside.
Yue Han: ...That's a bit too polite. Just now you didn't let Zhen Liu use the barrier.
But even Han Yueling's barrier was not that difficult for him with his ancestral bloodline.
He turned to look at Huang Xuan, his eyes filled with curiosity and the words "want to chase".
Huang Xuan nodded. "Actually, I want to watch it, too. After all, Zhen Liu hides too many secrets. I don't know what her ultimate goal is. If it's too dangerous, we have to consider running away."
Although he wanted to let the young master see the dangers of the world, it was also because he was capable enough to protect the young master. But now it is different. If Zhen Liu joins forces with the things in this palace, they will be in great danger. There is really no need to walk into the tiger's mouth.
The bloodline of the peacock clan has a unique characteristic. Although it cannot fly fast, the original beak has an extremely high breaking power. It is not very useful against illusions, but it is still useful against barriers.
Yue Han transformed into his original form, quickly pecked open the barrier, and rushed forward. Huang Xuan grabbed him by the neck and turned him into a human form.
"...You run too slowly in your original form, so you should stay in human form."
Regardless of whether it is evil spirits or monsters, the reason why they are keen on transforming into human form is because humans are the spirits of all things, and it is easier for them to understand the rules and laws of the world, and it is easier for them to overcome biological instincts, tame consciousness and will, and achieve enlightenment and ascend.
In human form, the footwork is better used and it is easier to catch up.
Lin Du and the rabbit seemed to be walking slowly, but rather than saying they were moving forward, it would be more accurate to say that the ground was automatically retreating and carrying them forward.
Soon they arrived at the place.
Han Yueling's companion stone, a round and transparent bead like the bright moon, emitting a faint cold light. It has even less emotion than the silver-gray ground. In other words, in Lin Du's eyes, this world is extremely boring.
Lin Du used his spiritual power and remained highly alert.
She didn't think that the Spirit of Heaven and Earth was a real little white rabbit, or rather, she had never intended for things to go so smoothly from the beginning.
The only way this could have gone so smoothly is...
"Xue Ling, how does your birthplace compare to here?"
Lin Du thought for a moment, "My birthplace is white, and your birthplace is gray."
They're the same, but she still prefers white.
But no matter what, such an extreme place is a form of mental abuse for normal people.
"Yes." The rabbit's three-petal mouth moved, "It's gray and doesn't grow the flowers or grass you mentioned. There's not even a thing that can talk. But in the inherited memory, there should at least be living things in your place."
"Yes, there are rabbits, Arctic hares." Lin Du babbled, "They are as long as your legs when you stretch them out."
rabbit:……
"But there is no such thing in my place. As for the outside world you mentioned, I have seen all kinds of worlds in the dreamland, and there is nothing special about them. It is extremely boring."
"The world you want is either a world of spiritual fluid baths and piles of spiritual stones, or a world of debauchery and extravagance, or a world of being so powerful that you can do anything, or a world of long-lasting love."
As Lin Du listened, the spiritual energy in his body surged wildly into the meridians in his arms, crowding around, waiting to be opened.
The rabbit walked to the companion stone and rubbed it. "So, Xueling, what's good out there?"
"The people you are attached to have only these things in their minds. They are all the same. No matter how they change, they can't get away from those things."
Lin Du stood there quietly, listening to it talk.
"Do you really think it's fun outside?"
Lin Du understood the source of the coldness and loneliness that hit him as soon as he entered here.
There are no living creatures in the Hanyue Secret Realm. Except for those things that are sealed in the Moon Sea and grow strangely and can barely be considered top-grade spiritual plants, the rest can hardly be considered living creatures.
There is no life, only gray haze, no color, and dead silence.
"Yes, it's more fun than here." Lin Du said, "Otherwise, why does the Hanyue Secret Realm only open once every thousand years?"
"That's because the celestial being who once lived here left behind a legacy! It's her will that it opens once every thousand years."
Rabbit seemed a little angry when he mentioned this. "It's not my idea. Humans always like to talk about things like passing things down from generation to generation. People are dead, so what else can be passed down?"
It tilted its head and snorted, "It may be a thousand years for you, but not for me."
"That person has been dead for a long time. She betrayed me and chose death. Originally, this place was just her and I. We made weapons and medicines every day and worked hard to cultivate some spiritual plants. Our lives were peaceful and beautiful... But she actually felt that life was meaningless. This world was a prison for her."
"She said she likes the hustle and bustle, but when I look at so many people, I just feel it's noisy."
Lin Du didn't realize that this rabbit was quite a socially anxious otaku.
It seems that the previous method is no longer applicable.
"So... humans are unreliable. Only the Companion Stone will not betray us." It looked at Lin Du with burning eyes, "Why... would you betray our only natural partner?"
As it spoke, it suddenly grew larger and puffed up, its eyes glowing blood-red, and it bared its teeth at Lin Du, "Since you have come to my door yourself, then stay and keep me company."
Lin Du calmly looked at the giant cotton candy that was expanding in front of him, but he didn't think it was scary. It was rare to find someone who was not crazy these days.
"What if I say no?" she asked softly.
"Then I will skin you alive and eat you!" Han Yue Ling Tu's dagger appeared, and the power of the moonlight poured out. "A snow spirit is also a great supplement."
Lin Du's spiritual power, which had been brewing for a long time, was instantly released. She only wanted to kidnap and steal, but the other party wanted to kill and eat their flesh. This was really not good. It seemed that she had to obey the law and be a good citizen.
With a bang, two rays of light with similar but completely different forces collided. The power of the moonlight was like an inclusive silk cloth, or to be more precise, a huge soft and elastic jelly. The power of ice and snow penetrated into the opponent's body like ice crystals piercing into jelly.
Lin Du narrowed his eyes and heard the rabbit's mockery, "Sure enough, the price of leaving the companion stone is dissolution. Your power is really not pure enough now."
That is indeed not pure enough, after all, Lin Du is not a real snow spirit.
Lin Du was not worried. He was calculating the level of the suddenly violent Han Yue Ling in his mind.
The highest ability under the rules of this world is the Huiyang Realm.
Lin Du sighed. Well, freezing others is better than freezing yourself.
The blood-red eyes met the increasingly clear grey eyes, and the situation was about to break out. Neither of the two creatures noticed that not far from them, two humanoid animals carefully set up their defensive magic weapons and confirmed again that the magic weapons on their bodies that shielded their aura had been activated.
Huang Xuan covered Yue Han's mouth tightly to prevent him from screaming.
"We can't do this, we really can't do this. We can't beat these two right now."
