The bloodstains from the demon beast were much deeper than those from ordinary bloodstains.
If you don't look closely, it even looks like ink splattered on the ground.
Strange color.
The marks that can't be erased.
Along the way, Song Tingwan and Lü Wanjian tried everything to save people.
The bloodstains still can't be removed.
"Don't worry about it, it will probably dissipate on its own in a few days," Song Siyao said casually.
She doesn't care about her image.
Are you feeling unwell?
Song Tingwan frowned, clearly concerned about the bloodstains.
Lu Wanjian pondered for a moment, "How about I take you to the place where the monster was found? The celestial phenomena were strange last night. When I passed by, the monster was clearly eating grass quietly. But when the blood moon rose, its pupils changed color and it started to go berserk."
I don't know if it's the moon, or if there's something wrong with the grass it's eating.
"Let's go take a look."
The two sisters naturally leaned towards the issue of the blood moon.
But first check the grass, rule out that as the cause before taking any action.
The three of them traveled together to a dense forest on the outskirts of this small town.
"It's just ahead."
Lu Wanjian, who was pointing the way ahead, turned back to the two of them without warning and said something.
The moment he turned around, a ferocious beast pounced out of the bushes beside him.
Like a tiger with horns.
With bloodshot eyes and a gaping maw, it opened its mouth to bite at Lü Wanjian's neck.
When Lü Wanjian sensed the danger, he tried to turn around, but it was too late.
In an instant, Song Siyao drew his sword and swung it fiercely.
The monster that attacked from mid-air was blown away by the sword energy.
After seeing the monster fall to the ground, Lü Wanjian and Song Tingwan rolled over and rushed over again without regard for anything else, their eyes glazed over as if they were driven only by instinct.
"Get it under control."
At Song Tingwan's command, Song Siyao and Lü Wanjian charged forward with their swords, effortlessly pinning the restless monster to the spot.
The maddened beast roared, but it could not break free from the two swords in its claws.
Song Tingwan frowned and approached, her fingertips swirling with a vibrant green spiritual energy. Then, she tilted her head back, directing the spiritual energy towards the restless beast's forehead.
In just a moment, the spiritual energy was violently repelled.
Song Tingwan quickly took two steps back and sidestepped to avoid it.
"strangeness."
This was the first time she had encountered such a situation.
Song Siyao and Lü Wanjian had grim expressions, clearly knowing that this situation was not normal.
"Let me take another look."
After Song Tingwan finished speaking, she closed her eyes and focused her spiritual awareness.
In an instant, he was stunned by the blood-red spirit.
Under divine sense, this demonic beast no longer resembled a living creature.
"Kill them."
It's hopeless.
Song Tingwan opened her eyes and said with a complicated expression.
Song Siyao looked up in surprise, realizing that the matter was more complicated than she had imagined.
She deftly pulled out the beam that had pinned the monster, and with a swift slash, she struck it down.
The demon's blood, as black as ink, splattered out. This time, she learned her lesson and dodged away.
Lu Wanjian reacted quickly, rolling away to avoid the splattered blood.
"This blood is really strange."
The three men looked solemn.
"Should we continue going in?" Song Tingwan asked the two of them for their opinion.
If we go any further in, there are probably more than just this one berserk monster.
"We have to leave, otherwise the monsters here will escape and probably hurt a lot of people."
Lu Wanjian pulled his sword from the monster's corpse, his expression serious.
Without saying a word, Song Siyao walked straight ahead.
Song Tingwan was protected by the two sword cultivators, one on each side, as they walked to the place where Lü Wanjian had discovered the monster.
Along the way, they killed six or seven mad beasts. The spiritual energy around this small town was thin, but fortunately, the beasts were not very powerful and were not as dangerous as the one that had broken into the town.
They arrived at the meadow.
At that moment, two harmless herbivorous spirits were munching on grass. Hearing the noise, the furry creatures twitched their ears and stared blankly over while chewing their grass.
He then ignored them and continued to gnaw away.
"It seems there's nothing wrong with these grasses."
Lu Wanjian squatted down to the side, picked up a clump of grass, and smelled it.
Song Tingwan frowned as she looked at the large expanse of grass.
Seeing that Lü Wanjian still wanted to taste the grass, she quickly stopped him, "Don't eat it, something's not right."
The power of the five elements is in chaos.
The chaotic energy emanating from this meadow displeased her.
Trusting her intuition, Song Tingwan silently took two steps back. Seeing her sister's action, Song Siyao quickly called out to Lü Wanjian.
"Fellow Daoist Lü, come back."
The words had barely left his lips.
The spirit creature, which had been quietly munching on grass, suddenly grew to three times its original size, its mouth still stuffed with grass, and pounced on Lü Wanjian, who was closest to it, without warning.
Lu Wanjian exclaimed in surprise and dodged.
Song Siyao pulled his sister aside, drew his sword, and killed the berserk spirit in a few strokes.
Lu Wanjian hissed and patted the weeds off his body.
"There really is something wrong with this grass."
Everyone thought the blood moon was abnormal, but no one expected that the culprit was actually this grass.
The blood on the Light Sword could not be removed, and it buzzed restlessly.
Song Siyao gripped the sword hilt reassuringly, "Sister, can you tell what's wrong with this grass?"
Song Tingwan pursed her lips and squatted down beside the grass. "Let me take a look first. You all drive away any spirits that come near."
She thought for a moment, then took out the spiritual spring water and dripped it onto the grass.
really.
The spring water was floating on the grass.
Just like when spiritual energy enters a demon beast's body, it is rejected.
"Both this grass and the spirit beasts that eat it repel spiritual energy."
What kind of power could this be?
Song Tingwan took out a glass bottle and released a wisp of the demonic energy that Aji had stored for her.
The demonic energy that had been wandering to the mouth of the glass bottle paused for a moment before plunging into the grass and disappearing without a trace.
Song Tingwan frowned in confusion, "Is it that the demonic energy likes these grasses, or that the grass absorbs the demonic energy?"
