Bloodline Awakening
Fang Jinghe didn't realize he was unconscious. He felt like he had been walking for a long time, but he couldn't stop. He kept running as if something was chasing him. What was he trying to escape from...
Suddenly, a man stood in front of Fang Jinghe. He swung a wooden stick and hit Fang Jinghe again and again. Fang Jinghe looked at him stubbornly without any intention of bowing his head.
"Rebellious son! Rebellious son! You really want to piss me off to death!" the man shouted angrily.
Fang Jinghe was lying on the ground without even the strength to turn over. He watched the man throw down the stick and walk away. Memories emerged in his mind. The person who spoke seemed to be his father, and he was just an insignificant person in the family.
Fang Jinghe suddenly recalled many past events. He had no mother, and for as long as he could remember, he had faced his father's stern face every day. His father had hired the best immortal master to teach him magic. He worked hard to make his father laugh, but even so, he never saw his father smile. Even when he failed or got hurt, he was only scolded by his father. If he shed a tear, he would be blamed for being useless.
Later he realized that no matter what he did was wrong. He was fed up with such a father and the gloomy house. The fairy palace belonging to the Fang family was like a cage that was as tormenting as a cage around him. Fang Jinghe became naughty and tried every means to escape, but was always caught and beaten by his father.
Fang Jinghe lay on the ground, a self-destructive figure. He thought it would be okay to stay like this forever. Once he stood up, he would have to face all those annoying people and things. He closed his eyes, a tear streaking across his temples. He hugged himself tightly, looking so helpless and pitiful.
Black air seeped up from the ground, entwining Fang Jinghe's body in strands. Fang Jinghe was pulled down little by little.
Suddenly, Fang Jinghe felt a shadow covering his head. He opened his eyes impatiently, and before he knew it, he met a pair of pupils as clear as water... The man's mouth curled up into a faint smile, and Fang Jinghe's heart seemed to skip a beat, and countless sour and itchy sensations surged into his eyes and nose.
It was the ladder... She emitted dazzling sunlight that pierced Fang Jinghe's eyes recklessly. This girl, who was always full of tenacious vitality... No matter what kind of difficulties she fell into, she would never give up easily... This vigorous vitality attracted Fang Jinghe's attention like a brilliant light.
A sweet voice came into Fang Jinghe's ears. She said, "It's time to wake up."
Xian Youlin killed countless puppets with a bone flute in his hand. He fell into this space inexplicably. At first, there was a puppet in the form of his mother who wanted him to stay, but he saw through it at a glance. Then, countless puppets appeared and he could not kill them all.
He muttered to himself to the puppets, "Four years ago, these illusions have stopped working on me. Dwelling on the past will only cause more pain. All I want to do is seize the future!"
"Ah!" Xian Youlin shouted, and a magic circle was drawn from under his feet. "When it comes to controlling people's hearts, I'm not inferior!"
Under Xianyoulin's formation, the puppets that had been attacking him blindly now started killing each other. There was constant grumbling all around, and these puppets roared and struggled in pain, and finally turned into a ball of black water and disappeared on the ground.
Inside the Purple Grotto
"Holy Maiden of the Nine Heavens, use your immortal power to pay tribute to it, and you will surely achieve great success!" A sculpture appeared in the Demon Lord's hand. He released the black air inside, and the black air condensed into the shape of a child, ready to absorb An Luoyi's power.
An Luoyi felt that the immortal power in her body was rapidly draining away. She struggled to get up but was pinned down by the Demon Lord's magic.
The process of having her immortal energy forcibly drained was excruciating. Even the usually stoic An Luoyi revealed a look of pain, her nails practically digging into her flesh. Forced to concentrate all her remaining spiritual energy into her palms, she forcibly broke through the Demon Lord's pressure and rolled to where the tree bow had fallen. In that critical moment, An Luoyi instantly released an arrow.
The blue spiritual arrow, with a streak of blood at the tail, hit the sculpture right on target!
The sculpture shattered, and the child in the black mist that had absorbed An Luoyi's spiritual energy instantly dissipated! All the black energy rushed into the sky in an instant, carrying the black energy of the entire Demon Palace with it!
"No!" The veins on the Demon Lord's forehead bulged, and murderous intent leaked out uncontrollably, "What did you do!"
The powerful magic shook the entire cave, and rocks kept falling down. An Luoyi was affected by the magic, and before she hit the sharp stone wall, an arm wrapped around her slender waist.
Xian Youlin took An Luoyi and turned around several times before they could steady themselves. Fang Jinghe also woke up in time and teleported to their side.
Fang Jinghe looked around and asked, "Where's the ladder?"
An Luoyi supported Xian Youlin and said weakly, "Under the water."
Fang Jinghe jumped into the pool without thinking, and was so fast that even Xian Youlin couldn't stop him.
The Demon Lord attacked like crazy. The cave shook and rocks fell to the ground. There was almost no place to stand in the cave. Xian Youlin and An Luoyi kept dodging. He frowned slightly and said, "This place is about to collapse. Let's get out first."
An Luoyi shook her head in panic: "No, my sister is still at the bottom of the pool." After saying that, she was about to walk towards the purple water pool.
Xian Youlin pulled her back and said, "You can't save her like this now, so you'd better get out first."
An Luoyi was picked up by Xian Youlin around the waist, and the two hurried out of the cave.
When they came out, the purple cave collapsed. An Luoyi slapped Xian Youlin with one palm, but fortunately, she had very little spiritual power left, so she did not cause any substantial harm to Xian Youlin.
"What are you doing?" An Luoyi said angrily, "I said the ladder is still inside."
Xian Youlin said calmly, "With Fang Jinghe here, he will find the ladder."
An Luoyi's eyes were covered with frost: "How could I put my sister's safety in the hands of such a careless person?"
She walked back, trying to find the entrance to the Purple Water Pond. Xian Youlin grabbed An Luoyi and said, "Can't you see that Fang Jinghe likes Yunti? He would protect your sister even at the risk of his own life. You are the one who needs to heal now."
An Luoyi stared at Xian Youlin and confronted him. Although she was a little surprised, she still said, "What does it have to do with me if he likes Yunti! I only know that my sister is in danger!"
Just as the two were about to start a quarrel, a hand suddenly stretched out from the pile of rocks. It was the mad Demon Lord from earlier. He was badly injured by the rocks, and he kept muttering, "It's over, everything is over."
He was already old, and now he looked even older. He looked at An Luoyi with his poisonous eyes.
Xian Youlin silently protected An Luoyi behind him.
In the purple water pool, stones kept falling into the water. Fang Jinghe dodged while looking for the ladder.
His movements were disturbed by the pool water. Although Fang Jinghe had quickly dodged the falling rocks, he was still scratched by the sharp rocks that passed by him.
The blood spread in the pool water, creating beautiful arcs.
Nearing the bottom of the pool, Fang Jinghe saw Yunti collapsed on a large purple rock, the White Tassel Sword and the Green Face Sword forming a magnetic field to protect her. Fang Jinghe tried to pull Yunti out, but found that she seemed fixed to the rock and motionless.
Fang Jinghe swam around the boulder, but it was impossible for him to return to the shore with the boulder. He could only see if the boulder held any other secrets.
As expected, the surface of the boulder presents a variety of textures, as if telling its mysterious and ancient history.
"Could this be the mysterious purple stone?" Fang Jinghe muttered in his heart.
In this case, it was a good opportunity to remove the restrictions on Yunti. Fang Jinghe protected Yunti and continued to smash the rubble thrown at them.
After entering the cave with the ladder, she felt something at the bottom of the pool calling her. A purple light bewitched her through the sparkling water. After falling to the bottom of the pool, she found herself in a strange place.
The oppressive pool water made it difficult for Yunti to breathe. In the last moment before she closed her eyes, she seemed to see a purple boulder glowing faintly.
Yunti's soul was drawn into the purple stone. Through communication with the stone spirit, she learned that the purple stone had been plagued by black energy for decades, and had lost its original brilliance. Until just now, it had sensed a powerful bloodline that might help it "resurrect."
The twins An Luoyi and Yunti can be said to have inherited their parents' bloodline to the extreme. If An Luoyi is the unique golden fire phoenix of the White Phoenix clan, then Yunti is the pride of the purple phoenix clan.
This purple stone is an ancient relic. It can sense that both of them have the aura of Minghuang, and Yunti's extremely devilish body can help it wash away years of dust, so it tries to lure Yunti into the pool.
The Purple Phoenix bloodline needs to be baptized by the purple stone in order to stimulate spiritual power, and those with pure bloodline like Yunti are even more so, so she was unable to practice before. In the past few decades, there have been few people in the Purple Phoenix clan who have achieved great success due to the malfunction of the purple stone.
Shi Ling said to Yun Ti, "Let's make a deal. I'll help you open the bloodline restriction, and you'll cleanse me of the dirt. How about that?"
This sounded like a good deal, but Yunti didn't understand: "How can I help you?"
"I only need one drop of your blood, but it depends on you whether you can bear the pain of opening the blood restriction." Shi Ling said.
Yunti said decisively: "Okay!" She had endured all kinds of pain. If she had to hide behind her sister and become a useless person, she might as well die. She wanted to help the people around her!
"Then I'll start." Shi Ling said.
This ancient stone glowed purple in front of Fang Jinghe's eyes, and Yunti's soul returned to his body and began to be tested.
Like hot magma gushing out from the crater of a volcano, Yunti's body seemed to have a red river flowing all over it. Although she was deep under the water, cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
"Yunti, what's wrong with you?" Fang Jinghe felt that the purple pool water around her was boiling.
Wisps of white mist floated out from around the ladder, and her clenched fists trembled frequently, as if they would be evaporated at any time.
Every inch of Yunti's skin seemed to be burned out, and she was stuck deep in the underground rock core, unable to escape. She was on the verge of failure several times, but when she thought of her sister, she gritted her teeth and felt that she could hold on a little longer.
Just like this, I persisted little by little, and pulled myself back from the edge of giving up countless times, just to become strong! To have the strength to protect the people I want to protect!
"Ah!" Yunti turned his pain into shouts and vented it all.
The purple light became more and more dazzling, and Fang Jinghe had to cover his eyes. Xian Youlin and An Luoyi on the shore also noticed the movement.
The restlessness at the bottom of the pool stopped, Yunti gently lifted his eyelashes, and there was a bit of determination and decisiveness in his pupils.
Fang Jinghe said in surprise: "Yunti, you are okay!"
Yunti was stunned for a moment, his heart pounding: "Why are you here..."
"I'm glad you're awake." Fang Jinghe's eyelids were a little sleepy, and his body could no longer hold on and gradually sank.
Yunti immediately swam over to catch him, "Hey, Fang Jinghe, don't sleep."
"You don't know how many rocks fell just now. I was exhausted protecting you." Fang Jinghe said as a matter of course, leaning on the ladder.
Yunti was speechless and learned An Luoyi's strategy of keeping silent is golden.
"I'll take you up first." Yunti said.
The ripples in the pool water formed an ellipse that enveloped the two people, and the water ball gradually floated up under the operation of the ladder.
