At this moment, Xie Huo, who had been silent all along, suddenly flew up and said, "No problem is the biggest problem."
Their gazes fell on the serious-looking Evil Flame. Black Fragrant Feather looked at it with a puzzled expression and asked, "What do you mean? What do you mean by 'no problem is the biggest problem'?"
The fiery creature scratched its chin with its furry paws, looking incredibly cute as it pondered something. If Ji Jiuying saw it like this, she would pet it until it turned into a silly beast.
"She is very likely trapped in a nightmare, meaning she's stuck in a dream of her own making..."
The group frowned upon hearing this. Si Yu looked at Ji Jiuying, and indeed, it seemed to be as Xie Huo had said. She slowly said, "If that's really the case, then it's a bit troublesome."
"It's indeed troublesome. If a person trapped in a nightmare doesn't have a strong enough will, they will remain trapped in the dream until they die..."
Before Xie Huo could finish speaking, Xiao Huang'er threw herself into Ji Jiu Ying's arms and burst into tears: "No, Xiao Huang'er doesn't want her mother to die, waaaaah!"
Evil fire: ......
"Little Phoenix, I was only talking about people whose willpower isn't strong enough, but that doesn't include her."
Little Phoenix suddenly raised her head, tears still clinging to her orange eyes, "What do you mean?"
The others also looked at Xie Huo, who became arrogant upon seeing this: "Don't worry, she has also been trapped in nightmares before, but she got out quickly."
"How long is 'soon'?"
His anger faltered. "Well... I can't really say."
“There is a way to quickly awaken her, which is for the main soul to enter her dream and bring her out,” Si Yu said.
The evil fire remained silent for a moment: "Entering her dream is no easy feat. Not only will it expend a great deal of primordial spirit, but the slightest mistake could result in both of us suffering severe damage to our souls and spirits, and our cultivation regressing..."
Si Yu looked at the unconscious Ji Jiuying, a determined look flashing in her eyes: "No matter what, we have to try."
“I can,” Hei Xiangling said, stepping forward.
“You’re not good enough,” Xie Huo refused without hesitation.
"Why?"
"None of you can be with him."
The group looked at Xie Huo with confusion. Xie Huo explained, "Think about it. She is human, and your true forms are beasts. The magnetic fields are different, so she will subconsciously repel you. If you force your way into her illusion, it may result in mutual destruction."
Upon hearing Xie Huo's words, the group trembled and shut their mouths, placing their hopes solely on Si Yu.
"Let me do it!" Si Yu's face no longer showed his carefree and unruly demeanor; his whole body exuded a determined aura.
"Have you thought it through?" Xie Huo asked him again to confirm, and Si Yu nodded.
"Okay, we'll protect you."
——
Ji Jiuying looked at the familiar world before her, her brows furrowing. This was...
The Vast Ocean Continent!
boom!
After a deafening roar, the once peaceful world turned dark and bloody, with slaughter ensuing.
From the direction of Star Academy, a dense mass of black mist rushed over. The black mist was like a sharp blade, directly piercing through the bodies of spirit masters. Wherever the black mist went, life was devastated and people suffered. Screams, wails, and the sound of sharp blades piercing through bodies echoed in Ji Jiuying's ears.
However, the black mist seemed unable to see her; even when it passed through her body, she remained unharmed.
Although she guessed that these were all fake, Ji Jiuying still had a bad feeling and flew towards the direction of Star Academy.
When she saw that the once glorious Star Academy had become a ruin, and that her friends who had laughed with her were lying cold on the ground one by one, she staggered a few steps, her pupils dilated, and she almost lost her balance.
Old Man Yu, Dean Shen, Miaoqing, Yan Nanzhi, Bai Mengfan, Yiyi...
Ji Jiuying looked up towards the forbidden area and saw a colossal beast shrouded in black mist, continuously releasing black energy, as if it wanted to destroy the world.
That is, the devil!
The demonic energy spread in all directions, leaving no living thing alive in its wake.
Ji Jiuying flew to Cangyue Kingdom. The once prosperous capital was no more. Every step she took was filled with corpses, and the entire city was like a purgatory. Blood had stained the entire capital a bright red. Thinking of something, Ji Jiuying flew to the Princess's Mansion. All her maids, including Feilong and Feihu, had fallen to the ground without exception, but Qingling was nowhere to be seen.
Soon Ji Jiuying arrived at the Wen family again. The once warm and cozy Wen mansion was now filled with a deathly atmosphere. Her legs trembled and she didn't even have the courage to step inside.
However, at this moment, a painful scream came from inside. Ji Jiuying rushed in without hesitation and saw Wen Longxiu kneeling on the ground in grief, and in front of her were the bloody corpses of the entire Wen family.
The black mist kept passing by her, but dared not get any closer. Ji Jiuying's gaze fell on the golden Buddhist beads in her hand, which she had seen in Jin Chenzi's hands before.
Then my gaze fell on Wen Longting's corpse. Her eyes were closed, and her whole body was covered in wounds. The white bones of the hand that was holding little Wen Chun were exposed, showing that she had suffered inhuman torture before she died.
Tears streamed down Ji Jiuying's face as she covered her mouth with her hand. She couldn't understand why the Cangming Continent had become like this, why the demon had been released despite being sealed away, and what all of this was foreshadowing...
Overwhelmed with grief, Wen Longxiu's slender body swayed precariously. She reached for the sword on the ground and, without hesitation, plunged it into herself. Ji Jiuying rushed forward to stop her, crying, "Axiu, don't..."
He tried to knock her sword away, but her body passed straight through it with a loud thud. Wen Longxiu died with her eyes wide open, lying in a pool of blood.
Ji Jiuying's eyes reddened, tears streamed down her cheeks, and she stood there stunned... her hands and feet were terribly cold.
Tragedy continued to unfold, with none spared from Cangyue, Jialan, or Xijin. Lightning flashed and thunder roared, and raging fires broke out everywhere. Ji Jiuying watched the scene unfold before her with sorrow, powerless to do anything about it.
At this moment, Ji Jiuying felt like a walking corpse. Her red clothes blended with the firelight, and her pale face resembled a vengeful ghost from the depths of hell. The suffocating feeling grew stronger, making it hard for her to breathe…
At this moment, a man whose face she couldn't see walked straight toward her. Ji Jiuying looked at the blurry figure in front of her with a puzzled expression. Although she couldn't see his face, she could clearly feel the man's sharp gaze.
Who is this man? He seems to be able to see her.
"Does it hurt? Do you know? This continent has become like this all because of you..."
"It's all because of you..."
The man's aged voice echoed in Ji Jiuying's ears.
