"This is?"
Lin Tian looked at these patterns and said with some surprise, because these patterns were very similar to the strange runes on Jiuyou Tiancan's body when he first saw her, but there were also big differences.
“It’s a legacy of memory.”
The ethereal voice came from nowhere and went straight into Lin Tian’s brain.
"Inheriting memories? Who are you?"
"You just need to follow the contents of the inherited memory, and you will find me."
The ethereal voice continued to sound and then disappeared. Lin Tian frowned slightly. He knew that he shouldn't think too much now.
Lin Tian took a deep breath, put aside all the messy thoughts in his mind, and began to look carefully at the palace in front of him. The walls of the palace were covered with various ancient runes, which emitted a faint light. Lin Tian's eyes fell on the stone tablet in the front of the palace.
There was an image carved on the stone tablet. It was the same scene that Lin Tian saw when he first entered the palace. A butterfly was undergoing the baptism of purgatory.
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lin Tian carried the somewhat weak Ling Yelan on his back and walked forward.
There are more than a dozen steps in front of the palace, and various strange runes are engraved on each step. Lin Tian walked towards the steps.
Along the way, Lin Tian felt a strong pressure, and this pressure was transmitted from the steps under his feet.
Lin Tian knew that these steps were used to test one’s cultivation level. If one’s cultivation level was not low enough, one might not even be able to stand here.
If the first few levels did not bring any pressure to Lin Tian, then the last one was simply the Qinhuai watershed.
When he reached the last step, Lin Tian felt unbearable pressure, as if a mountain was pressing down on Lin Tian's body, and he was swaying in the wind and rain like a leaf.
Lin Tian gritted his teeth, sweat broke out on his forehead. He held the handrail of the stairs tightly with both arms, not daring to relax at all, for fear that he would fall down if he was not careful, which would definitely affect the little foodie.
"I really didn't make a mistake."
Suddenly, an old voice came from the palace, and then the palace door was seen slowly opening.
An old woman came out from inside. She was wearing a black robe and holding a cane in her hand. Her eyes were sharp, as if she knew everything. She looked at Lin Tian with her cloudy eyes.
The old woman just glanced at Lin Tian and then shifted her gaze to Ling Yelan.
Although Lin Tian knew that this might be an opportunity for Ling Yelan, he did not relax at all.
"You can cancel your disguise now. Under the Nine Nether Sky Eye, no trick can hide you."
Hearing the old woman say this, Lin Tian was helpless and quickly explained to the old woman the reason for his disguise.
In order to find Lin Xi, he needs to reincarnate continuously, but this time he unfortunately turns into a girl.
Besides, I have already handed over the appearance of this female body to Ling Yelan. It would look weird for two people to have the same face.
After understanding, the old woman turned around and walked towards the palace, and Lin Tian followed closely with Ling Yelan on his back.
After entering the palace, the old woman stretched out her hand to the wall of the palace, and the door on the wall opened immediately. The old woman and Lin Tian walked into the room together.
As soon as he entered the room, Lin Tian found that the air in the room was very cold. It was not the kind of temperature that most people live in, but rather a bit icy.
“I didn’t expect that such a sacred palace outside would have such a gloomy scene inside.”
Lin Tian looked around and said, but such an environment did make Ling Yelan's condition much better.
At least the sickly red on his face had faded, and although he hadn't fully woken up yet, his breathing had become more regular.
Sitting cross-legged in a corner of the room, the old woman clasped her hands in front of her chest and then slapped the ground with both palms.
As she clapped her palms, wisps of black air flowed out from her palms and gradually gathered into a huge black cyclone, and the temperature of the entire room became lower and lower.
Lin Tian did not dare to hesitate and quickly activated the energy shield in his body to resist the low temperature here for Ling Yelan and himself. However, this low temperature seemed to have spirituality. No matter how Lin Tian resisted, it still continued to flow into his body.
Not only Lin Tian's body, but even Ling Yelan's body was gradually being eroded, but Lin Tian was unable to move at all.
Lin Tian was extremely anxious. If he could not leave this place quickly, Ling Yelan's life would be threatened.
At this time, the old woman's eyes suddenly opened, and a golden light shot towards Ling Yelan, directly into her forehead.
Ling Yelan's eyes suddenly became dull, and waves of strong breath continued to come out of her body, constantly hitting the walls in the room.
"She has absorbed too much resentment over the past few hundred years, and her body can no longer bear it. This is the only way to eliminate the resentment."
The old woman looked at Lin Tian and spoke in a deep voice. Her meaning was very clear, asking Lin Tian not to help Ling Yelan.
This will not only not make her feel better, but will also harm her.
Hearing the old woman's words, Lin Tian nodded, put Ling Yelan on the ground and adjusted his posture to facilitate the flow of true energy.
Lin Tian stood aside and observed the old woman's movements. In an instant, he seemed to understand the meaning of the runes on the wall.
What they recorded was the origin of the Nine Netherworld Silkworm.
This is why the little foodie has been unable to break out of his cocoon.
She completely closed her heart.
There is no emotion or thought in this heart. Perhaps he erased the existence of his own thoughts just to avoid suffering.
So everything about Ling Yelan is a blank sheet of paper.
The Nine Netherworld Silkworm was once the most sacred and noble being, but it degenerated into its current state because it bore too much resentment from immortal cultivators.
Her spirit was tortured by the suffering of others every day. The pain was extreme, the pain reached the limit, and she was even on the verge of collapse.
Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore and chose to degenerate into a demon, because only the demon could save her, only the demon could bring her happiness, and she could no longer bear the pain of others.
But she forgot that once she chose to become a demon, she would have desires, and once she had desires, they would expand.
Improper desires are the most evil product in the world.
