Chapter 146 Take me back to Kunlun.
The people on the boat were instantly in chaos and fled in all directions, but the waves were too big and the boat was shaking violently. Some people were almost swept into the river by the huge waves.
After Lin Yue steadied himself, he asked loudly, "What happened?"
The sound was swept away by the strong wind and was barely audible.
"Water ghosts," Fang Zhiming said coldly, "These demonic creatures are getting too rampant these days."
"Save people first!" said Xu Xingxing.
The four men dispersed and quickly sent the people on the deck to the cabin, but the ferry was like an unstable eggshell in the strong wind and huge waves, and it was only a matter of time before it was torn apart by the waves.
Qin Feng drew his sword and said, "I'll go and lure the water ghost out."
After saying that, he jumped directly into the river.
The rain was pouring down, and the crowd was chaotic. Xu Xingxing and the other two, along with the crew members on the bed, had just settled everyone down when suddenly a distant roar mixed with the screams of the crowd came. She looked up and saw that the boat not far away was completely entangled by a huge snake!
No, it wasn't a giant snake. Instead, its thick, long body was covered in densely packed legs, stretching from head to tail like a centipede. Its "snake body" was a purple hue, wrapping itself tighter and tighter around the boat. Its legs were incredibly nimble, prying the planks apart as it tightened its body.
Break them apart? ...Those things aren't feet, they're human arms!
The hull of the ship collapsed one after another, and it was even more shaky on the turbulent river. The cries of the people on the ship were miserable and endless.
At this critical moment, a huge crimson snake suddenly roared out and bit the water ghost. A piece of flesh was torn off the water ghost's body, and blood spurted out instantly, dyeing the dirty river surface red. The water ghost struggled and twisted, and in extreme pain, his head, which had been buried in the water, finally emerged.
Xu Xingxing had never seen such a head before. There were densely packed eyes on the huge round fleshy ball, and a big mouth underneath. When the big mouth opened and roared, countless small mouths inside the mouth screamed together, so densely packed that it was extremely disgusting.
Xu Xingxing felt like she was going to vomit her lunch. She yelled at the red snake, "Si Li, stop biting that thing! It's disgusting!"
As she spoke, she wanted to fly to help Si Li, but before she could move, a water ghost suddenly jumped out from more than ten meters away, howling to the sky. Their boat shook violently under the impact. Qin Feng jumped out of the water, tapped the boat railing with his toes, turned around handsomely and attacked the water ghost again.
Fang Zhiming also went to help, but when he was about to hit, another water ghost jumped out of the water and bit Fang Zhiming.
"Be careful!" Lin Yue shouted and flew forward to help.
Xu Xingxing was just about to use her spiritual power to join the battle, but her meridians suddenly stagnated, her body instantly tensed up, and her legs and feet went weak.
What's going on?
Fang Zhiming must have seen her plight and shouted, "Senior Sister, we'll come, you hold the boat!"
After Si Li dealt with the water ghost, she was ready to come here to help. But as soon as she turned around, she heard a "bang" and the ferry behind her broke in the middle, and an even bigger water ghost rushed out!
How many are there?!
Xu Xingxing mobilized her spiritual power again, but this time she felt not only stuffy but also as if someone had put a bunch of needles in her heart. With each beat, the pain quickly swept through her blood vessels throughout her body. In just a moment, she broke out in a cold sweat.
Why?
Because of Blue Spring?
But she had soaked in the blue spring before, and although it caused some blockage and pain, it was not like now where she couldn't even draw out any spiritual power.
...Speaking of which.
Why did she enter Sicheng Cliff last time?
Is this what it feels like to hit your head? Is this what it feels like to lose your memory?
Why did her past seem like someone had casually erased it with an eraser, as if she remembered nothing, but when she looked closely there were large blank areas.
Is this really normal?
"Why are there so many!" These words were not spoken by her, but roared out by Si Li who had transformed into his original form.
Si Li attacked the thickest water ghost, and the water ghost swallowed a person into its stomach and then went to fight.
Xu Xingxing had heard of demons and ghosts.
Because there are so many monsters in the world, the living space of ghosts and monsters is squeezed. In order to survive, some weak monsters and evil spirits merge into one, thus forming a new species, monster ghosts.
But it shouldn't be like this.
The river seems to have been occupied by a relatively mild monster. This monster mostly feeds on corpses and water monsters. Water ghosts are the symbiotic creatures of evil spirits and water monsters. Although there have been such monsters before, they have never been so rampant.
Is this a disruption of the food chain?
The wind was howling and the rain was pouring down. Xu Xingxing was already soaked all over. She didn't know whether it was because of the cold or the pain. She was still mobilizing her spiritual power, but the effect was still minimal.
Bang--
There was a loud bang, and people's feet stumbled suddenly, and screams were heard all around.
The hull was smashed by another emerging water ghost, and huge waves surged, instantly taking away more than ten people on the boat.
Xu Xingxing quickly scooped up a shaky child, but she had no support and couldn't stand. The river surged, the ferry capsized, and she felt a sudden blow from behind. The pain was so intense that she couldn't control herself and fell straight into the water. Gritting her teeth, she pushed the child onto the wooden plank nearby, then slammed herself into the water.
The muddy river water engulfed her body and covered her facial features. She could not see, hear, or touch. The air in her chest slowly flowed out. The surroundings were cold and suffocating, but Xu Xingxing was still stubbornly mobilizing her spiritual power.
She forgot to struggle, or perhaps didn't want to struggle, her meridians were still blocked and her whole body was in excruciating pain.
As she was alone and helpless in this chaos and nothingness, she felt more and more that what she had lost was not just spiritual power.
Suddenly, a huge head appeared in front of her.
It is covered with densely packed eyes.
So disgusting.
But it feels familiar.
In a trance, some memories flashed through my mind.
She seemed to have seen him in the palace.
They are not of the same species, but they are all covered with eyes.
How did she defeat that thing then?
She still couldn't summon her spiritual power, but her anxiety gradually subsided.
The monster opened its mouth towards her. Was it going to eat her?
Is she going to die?
Can I go back to see grandpa?
Oh, right, she seemed to have said that even if she went back, she would have to bring something with her...
What is it?
My body hurts so much.
"Senior Sister!"
Someone shouted, but the voice was very vague due to the layer of water.
This water ghost's mouth is really disgusting...
I'd rather drown than be eaten by this thing.
Even though he thought so, his eyes slowly closed due to the tingling in his meridians and the endless suffocation.
…
Qin Feng and Fang Zhiming tried their best to dive into the water, but were stopped by water ghosts.
Not only big ones, but also many small ones!
After the monsters in this world were summoned by Hou Yuan, these bastards took advantage of the opportunity and grew so big.
The water monster's ability to reproduce is already very strong, and when mixed and integrated with the countless wronged souls and evil spirits in the river, it has become such a troublesome situation.
Thunder roared in the sky, the surface of the river was dyed bloody red, and water ghosts appeared one after another. After killing the big ones, dozens of small ones emerged. After killing the small ones, big ones attacked again.
Qin Feng was extremely anxious and almost went crazy with killing intent. Xu Xingxing had not appeared since he fell into the water. He was extremely anxious and his blood was about to burst through his head.
Suddenly, he felt a chill in his nose. The surroundings were already cold, so he thought it was an illusion. He raised his hand and killed a water ghost. As he flew forward, a snowflake suddenly fell in front of his eyes.
snowflake?
He was in a trance for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, the torrential rain turned into heavy snow, spreading all over the sky, spreading wildly.
Unlike the murderous rain, the falling snow is gentle and overflowing, silent yet majestic.
The thunder gradually stopped, the air became quiet, and the surface of the river solidified into ice with a certain point as the center, and spread outward at an extremely fast speed, passing over the scattered wooden boards, passing through the bodies of thousands of water ghosts, and over the waves. Within five breaths, the entire surface of the river that could be seen was covered with an extremely thick layer of ice.
A woman with blood oozing from all seven orifices broke out from the ice, her eyes flashing red for some unknown reason. She placed her fingers on her lips, then parted her red lips and uttered a word:
broken!
In an instant, thousands of frozen water ghosts on the river surface exploded one after another, layer upon layer, like bursting bubbles, or countless brilliant fireworks.
When the last water ghost exploded, the woman fell straight down as if she had lost all her strength. The snow disappeared, the thick clouds dispersed, and the ice on the river melted in an instant. Lin Yue, who was closest to her, flew forward and caught her. The woman did not close her eyes, but stared blankly at Si Li who was also flying towards her and said:
"Take me back to Kunlun."
"Fly."

On the way back, Fang Zhiming took the initiative to explain some things to Xu Xingxing.
For example, Xu Yi originally planned to fight to the death with Wei Yuan, whether it was like an egg hitting a rock or an ant trying to shake a tree. He didn't want to live alone in the world without his master's wife, so he might as well die.
Fang Zhiming said that these were his exact words.
For example, if Xu Xingxing felt hatred and wanted to kill Hou Yuan, that would be fine. But if she really didn't want to kill him, Xu Yi would send her out, so they were arranged to guard the underground Blue Spring from the beginning.
For example, Xu Yi did not repair the hole she had blown up before, just in case.
For example, Xu Yi fed her the Heartless Pill, which could make her forget the person she loved deeply. He also put a strange pendant on her, saying that it could block her breath and slowly transform her spiritual power into different breaths. Before the transformation was successful, her meridians would be blocked for a while.
This heartless pill was made by a Mahayana cultivator in the past. It will not only make the person who takes it forget his previous love, but also allow him to seal his heart and lock away his love, and put an end to his desires.
After saying that, Fang Zhiming glanced at Xu Xingxing nervously: "Senior Sister, you are really amazing. Even the Jueqing Pill has no effect on you..."
Xu Xingxing was lying dead on the snake's head, and cursed in his heart when he heard this.
The Heartless Pill is nothing! I have the soul of the demon god in my sea of consciousness!
However, not only the Heartless Pill, the pendant on her neck was not an ordinary thing, otherwise, after releasing so much spiritual power, not a single breath would have leaked out. Not only did she lose half her life, but she was now in a state where she could not mobilize her spiritual power, and she couldn't take it off no matter how hard she tried.
She pursed her lips and asked, "Besides my father, who else stayed there?"
Fang Zhiming said a string of names.
When Xu Xingxing heard Gu Nuo, he felt like vomiting blood.
It was all in vain that she saved him.
"Why is Yue Baiyin joining in the fun?"
"Hey, didn't you see, Senior Sister? Their generation all stayed there, and only the younger ones were driven out." Fang Zhiming sighed, "Their families were basically all killed in the Demon-Chasing War. Now that Wei Yuan has appeared again, how could they not do anything..."
"You just let them die?" Xu Xingxing said in a cold voice.
"...I want to stay there too, Senior Sister!" Fang Zhiming was so excited that tears fell. "But Master entrusted you to me. He doesn't want you to have anything to do with Wei Yuan anymore. How can I...I just ignore you?"
Xu Xingxing stopped talking and became increasingly irritated.
So, she was caught in the middle again.
Damn it, damn it.
It would be fine if she was a bad person, letting people die wherever they want, whoever they love, die, she wouldn't bother to care! But she is not such a twisted person. When she knows someone she cares about wants to die, she wants to save them. Even if they don't want to live, she doesn't want to watch them die.
Good things always happen when you are alive.
Being alive is a good thing.
Is this what the Heavenly Dao wants?
Is this what the Heavenly Dao wants to force her to do?
Is it true that this teaching tool of hers is finally going to be useful?
She moved a pawn and he just flipped the chessboard over, right?
"...Is my father dead now?" she asked.
If Wei Yuan finds out that she is missing, he will probably go crazy.
"It's hard to say." Qin Feng said, "My master and the headmaster seem to have developed a new barrier that should be able to hold out for a few days."
Barrier?
Why didn’t you use it before?
Oh, yes, the purpose before was to die.
Now the battle might last two days, and every monster killed counts.
Hopefully they can hold out until she arrives.
She stood up, drew a few talismans, and handed them to Qin Feng: "Qin Feng, you are the fastest, so you have a better chance of catching up if you go on your own. These talismans are the self-defense methods I learned from ancient books. As long as you chant the terms from a few miles away, these talismans will automatically attach to them, allowing them to escape from Hou Yuan's hands once."
Qin Feng opened his eyes wide.
Xu Xingxing's eyes turned red uncontrollably: "Please."
Qin Feng nodded and took it. After memorizing the terminology in his mind, he flew away on his sword.
Xu Xingxing lay on the snake's head again, wiped away her tears, touched the snake's head and said, "Si Li, how long do we have left?"
Si Li sighed: "Two hours."
Xu Xingxing stopped talking and just looked at the gloomy clouds, thinking:
So there is no reward at all for her teaching tool?
